It seemed that he noticed something was wrong in Baixiu's eyes. Gu Xiaoman subconsciously glanced at the position where he originally stood on the frozen lake.
"Ahem..." Gu Xiaoman smiled sheepishly and quickly waved his sleeves to collect the spiritual black snake that had overflowed from [Dream of Dreams] into his sleeves.
"Chichichi!" As the spreading black arc ball disappeared... the tight air in the frozen lake also became lighter.
Seeing that Gu Xiaoman is still the same as he was five years ago
"Cunning", Baixiu felt a little relieved. The more careful the little guy is, the safer he will be when he goes out. But his expression was still solemn: "You just mentioned Yun Hu, do you suspect that he will send someone to assassinate you?"
"I can't say yes, and I can't say no." Gu Xiaoman rubbed his eyebrows, looking a little helpless.
"I just think that if there is an assassin who really wants to assassinate me... then the probability of him coming from Yunhu's sect is the highest." She said slowly: "The news that I left the Tower of Source was not told to outsiders. So if someone really wants to assassinate me, then He must be from Central Continent, and only people from the same sect can know and grasp my close movements."
"There are many people in the same sect, why did you guess it was Yun Hu?"
"I said I just said it casually, do you believe it?" Gu Xiaoman said with a smile: "Okay, master, don't ask, just let this matter pass... I will handle the matters in Central Continent myself. Properly handled.”
"..." Baixiu could only remain silent. He asked again: "Why did you come to the tundra?" It was a good question.
As Gu Xiaoman, it is not easy to leave Central Continent. During this trip, she had many places to choose from, but she chose the tundra. Baixiu did not believe that this was an accidental choice.
"I have never seen snow." Gu Xiaoman answered in a very calm and calm tone: "That's why I came to the north to have a look." Baixiu was speechless again. He looked at the little girl with a blank face, and for a moment, I couldn't find anything to refute.
Judging from Gu Xiaoman's character. What she said might be true...she wanted to come to the Tundra to see it, so she came.
"Is that why?"
"That's why." Gu Xiaoman paused for two seconds, looked at Bai Xiu, and said seriously: "I will be returning to Central Continent soon. Can you take me to the end of the tundra to have a look?" In fact, Gu Xiaoman was communicating in the communication earlier. Baixiu also heard what Qili and Honglong said.
The Tower of Source is calling her back. Judging from the direction she was heading, she didn't want to pay attention to this recall. It can only be delayed for a while, but not forever.
If there is no news, the red dragon will personally come to the tundra to find her.
"You want to go to the end of the tundra?" Baixiu raised his eyebrows: "There are many snow-capped mountains there."
"Yes, I want to see those snow-capped mountains." Gu Xiaoman smiled brightly and said: "I have just been promoted to the third level. The ability of [Dream Dream] does not help me on the road... I have worked hard for a month and it is just a walk. To the frozen lake." In fact, she was walking very fast. The frozen lake area is a forbidden zone that is quite deep in the tundra!
"Sit up, I'll take you to see... the end of the tundra." Baixiu waved his sleeves, and countless electric arcs flew past in the void, and the Thunder World Walker was completed out of thin air!
Gu Xiaoman subconsciously took two steps back. In front of her was a rather strong and tall armored creature, almost as big as a mountain. She had a good memory. When Baixiu summoned [Thunder World Walker], the size of the armored creature might be Only half of what it is now.
The Thunder World Walker slowly stretched out a hand and motioned for the girl in black to step on him. Gu Xiaoman grinned. She was not polite to Bai Xiu. She stepped on the palm of the Thunder World Walker. Instead of being filled with lightning as expected, it was quite comfortable. This armored creature restrained all hostility, and the crackling static electricity lightning It only exploded around Gu Xiaoman, but did not really touch her. The Thunder World Walker carefully placed the girl on his right shoulder, and then repeated the same action, placing his master on his left shoulder.
next moment.
"Kacha!" The surface of the frozen lake shattered. The Thunder World Walker jumped directly into the sky and flew towards the extreme east. The wind and snow hit his face, and they were all swept away by the domain of Baixiu.
The two flew smoothly.
"Master, I remember that the [Thunder World Walker] five years ago was not like this..." Gu Xiaoman clicked her tongue, and she asked with emotion: "What state are you in now?" Because you were born late.
When Gu Xiaoman started his extraordinary practice, Bai Xiu was already close to the top of the mountain. So in her perception, Bai Xiu has always been a high mountain.
Whether it was five years ago or five years later, she could not see clearly that she was
The true strength of "Cheap Master". But during this meeting, she vaguely felt that the strength of Master Baixiu made people look up to her. This was a feeling that she could not experience at all five years ago... This is the only way to truly start extraordinary practice and truly achieve this goal. Only those who feel bottlenecks and obstacles on the road will understand what it's like.
Bai Xiu is the kind of genius who is a higher level in the eyes of geniuses. Even in Gu Xiaoman's eyes, this is the case.
"Guess." Regarding this question, Baixiu just smiled slightly and did not answer directly.
"You should have been at the peak of the fourth level five years ago... Now you should be at least the legendary fourth level transcender, right?" Gu Xiaoman thought for a while and gave a conservative answer.
Bai Xiu lowered his eyes and looked at the scenery under the clouds. He still didn't answer, but changed the topic and pointed below him.
"Have you seen this lake shrouded in green light?" Gu Xiaoman looked in the direction pointed by Bai Xiu.
Since it is thousands of meters away from the ground at this moment, [Thunder World Walker] is still climbing, so the green light lake does not look big at this moment, only the size of a palm, but in fact... this lake may be close to a hundred meters tall. inside.
Gu Xiaoman's expression became serious. When she looked at the green light, [Dream] conveyed to her the message that danger should not be approached.
"What is this blue light?" She was confused.
"It's a barrier." Bai Xiu said concisely: "It's a 'boundary' built by Li's family to deliberately block the lake. Six years ago, a skysheath bomb was detonated here. So far, all areas within the barrier are under In a state of 'extinction of life', countless fission fragments of the sky sheath remain in that lake, so extraordinary people are strictly prohibited from entering." After Gu Xiaoman entered the Tower of Source, he gained high authority.
She became wise very early. Under the guidance of the red dragon, she also read a lot of files over the years, so she naturally knew about such things as sky sheath weapons.
As soon as Baixiu mentioned the sky-sheath weapon, she murmured: "Is that sky-sheath weapon called a child?"
"Yes, child." Baixiu murmured softly: "Child's power can shatter hundreds of miles of frozen lakes. A weapon of this magnitude is enough to destroy the world. Even I am still not sure Survive that kind of explosion..." As long as he does not become a god, the body of an extraordinary person, no matter how it evolves, cannot resist the fission of the sky sheath.
The explosion of children is actually a dimensionality-reducing blow to the level of life! But back then, there was one person who survived the blow from the Sky Sheath, and he was only at the third level.
Speaking of this, the two of them fell silent. There is a name that has not been mentioned, but has already entered their hearts.
Gu Xiaoman had read the archives from that year. She knew about Central City and Nagano's joint pursuit of the fugitives from the snow cage, and she also knew about Gu Shen's survival in the child explosion.
The Thunder World Walker flew slowly in the air, leaving the blue lake behind, gradually becoming invisible. After a long time, Gu Xiaoman spoke with a hoarse voice.
"So... how did he survive the explosion that year?"
"An unsolved mystery." Bai Xiu laughed at himself: "No one knows the answer except Gu Shen... Looking at it now, this can already be called a 'miracle'." Gu Xiaoman stopped talking and thought again and again. Finally stop talking.
She wanted to say, if that person could survive the child explosion, why couldn't he survive the Sangzhou Cave explosion?
In the first two years after returning to Central Continent, she devoted herself to cultivation, cultivating in the perfect dream created for her by the Tower of Source, and ignored the affairs of the outside world.
It's just that some things can't be hidden. News of Gu Shen's death spread throughout the five continents. Even if the Tower of Source was extremely powerful, it could not keep it a secret forever.
So at the end of the second year, Gu Xiaoman knew this
"Bad news". However, by that time, peace had completely returned to Wuzhou, and even the Nagano investigation team had taken a break for a while. Because there were no new clues, the investigation team could not continue the investigation.
The world operates the same without anyone else. Most people still remember Gu Shen's name. A few people remember that there was such a person
"S-class geniuses" have appeared before and created many miracles, which are worthy of memory...or mourning.
But everyone remembers that this guy is dead. No matter how talented he is, he is just a corpse. This is what the world is like. Throughout history, even a person as powerful as Gu Changzhi and as great as the Iron Qiong Emperor of Beizhou, in the end, what he left to the world was nothing more than a handful of loess and a few portraits.
"In the past five years, I have been to the Ice Sea many times." Bai Xiu said softly: "I hope to see the scene after the explosion of the children in the frozen lake, and to see Gu Shen appear in front of me... This guy can always Create a miracle, maybe he is not dead?" Gu Xiaoman asked: "You have been to the ice sea so many times, have you found any useful information?"
"No." Bai Xiu said: "If you have a chance to trial alone next time, don't go to the ice sea. There is nothing there. Even if you search very hard, you can't find someone's body. At most, you can only find someone's body." You can find the broken land fragments of the Sangzhou Cave Island, as well as the mutated combination of animal spirit feces." This is a cold joke that is not funny.
Gu Xiaoman was a little helpless. She looked at the man in white next to her and said seriously: "Master, you are not suitable for telling such jokes... But I did have plans to go to the Ice Sea before." The Thunder World Walker gradually slowed down, And it gradually declined.
The clouds were pushed aside by the light. Gu Xiaoman's eyes shone brightly. She saw a spectacular snow-white world. At the end of the tundra were countless snow-capped peaks reaching into the clouds. There were brilliant aurora flashing here, reflecting on the pure white snow, making it look holy and dignified.
"I have been meditating in the tundra for a long time. The scenery here is beautiful and not many people come." The Thunder World Walker found a snow mountain to land on.
Baixiu stood on the top of the mountain and laughed softly: "Generally, people from Nagano who send people to look for me can't find a place like this... This is the best pure place in the world. If someone wants to hide any secrets in a place like this, then It will definitely not be discovered.”
"Yeah..." Gu Xiaoman stood on the top of the snow mountain, looking at the most beautiful sight he had never seen in his life, and he was in a daze.
Baixiu raised his hand. The Thunder Walkers dissipated, but the realm also expanded. The extraordinary energy machine above the snow-capped mountains was completely locked.
"So, this kind of place is the place where 'secrets' can really be told." Baixiu stood with his hands behind his back, came to Gu Xiaoman's side, and said, "If you have anything to say, say it now..." ...You can also choose to hold it in, but no matter what, I don’t believe that you really came to the tundra just to see the snow.” Gu Xiaoman was stunned.
"If my guess is correct, you want to see the frozen lake where the child exploded." Baixiu laughed softly: "You want to see how terrifying the power of the sky scabbard weapon [child] is after it explodes. , can it be compared with Sangzhou Cave... The reason why you came to Tundra is actually to find out the cause of Gu Shen's death." After a moment of silence, the little guy raised his head: "...Yes." She did not retreat, nor did she hide.
"I don't believe Gu Shen is dead. I saw the [Child] explosion recorded in the archives...so I wanted to come to the tundra to have a look." Gu Xiaoman's voice was low at first, but she soon raised her voice. : "There is nothing shameful about me doing this!" Her true intention of traveling eastward and northward was revealed, and she was a little angry for a moment, but in fact she felt more aggrieved.
"After entering the Tower of Source, I can't step into Dongzhou openly. I can't go to Nagano, and I can't go to Dadu... Even if I travel alone, the news of leaving Central Continent cannot be announced to the outside world."
"I want to come to Dongzhou to visit, but the only place I can set foot in is the tundra!" As she spoke, her eyes became a little moist.
"I still remember the scene when we were saying goodbye five years ago. He promised me that we would meet again..."
"He also told me that Nagano is a very beautiful ancient city. After I leave Nanzhou, he must take me to see it. It will be a wonderful new home there..." Gu Xiaoman tightened his sleeves.
So far she is still wearing the source armor that Gu Shen gave her. She thought about how well Gu Shen treated her. Think about it every day.
Because she was in the darkness, there was a person who opened the door of light for her, so every ray of light she saw from now on would remind her of the person who opened the door in the first place.
She remembered every word, every word, every promise that Gu Shen said. But Gu Shen died in Sangzhou Cave... These promises were like the lies of a liar.
Gu Xiaoman raised her hands and spread them to her mouth. She shouted with all her strength to the snow-capped mountains in front of her.
"Gu Shen! You big liar!"......
