After Mo Lin was carried by Lu Ping, the group's pace actually accelerated a lot. In the afternoon, the wind and snow stopped again, and the white sunshine once again covered the sky and the earth. In front of us was no longer an endless snowfield, but a glacier. At the foot of the glacier, some buildings were vaguely visible, but they were all white.
"We're almost there." Ying Xiao pointed forward.
"Yes." Lu Ping nodded, then turned around. Xu Weifeng and Leng Qing, who had been following them at a distance, simply disappeared.
"Where are they?" Lu Ping asked.
"How dare they just walk in like this? Are they looking for death?" Ying Xiao said.
"So?" Lu Ping asked.
"Who knows, wish them good luck." Ying Xiao said.
"Then will you betray them?" Su Tang asked curiously.
"Well...it depends on your mood." Ying Xiao said.
"It looks like it won't happen anymore." Su Tang smiled. We have seen enough of the relationship between these three people these days. The three of them would never admit it if they were friends, but if they were enemies, they would be cruel but not thorough enough. The three dark factions only parted ways in the millennium, instead of fighting it out under the iron flag. This shows that their differences have not reached the point of life-and-death. It is not surprising that such an unclear relationship remains after thousands of years. And these three people are nothing more than the heirs of this strange relationship.
After walking forward for a while, the scene at the foot of the glacier gradually became clearer. Strange shapes, high or low, made of ice that should be buildings, are arranged in an orderly manner at the foot of the glacier. Those who were active outside were all wrapped up tightly, and even their eyes were covered with a piece of black cloth - this should be to resist the white sunlight in the afternoon.
"Brother Ying Xiao!" A child appeared out of nowhere. He was dressed like this, but he looked to be at least five or six years old. He staggered over and hugged Ying Xiao's thigh.
"Hahaha." Ying Xiao laughed heartily, hugged the child high, and looked very affectionate and familiar. Then he took off the thick cloth wrapped around his face and took a look, and then shouted: " It’s Xiaozhi!”
"Brother Yingxiao, why are you back?" the child called Xiaozhi asked abruptly.
"Shouldn't I come back?" Ying Xiao asked back.
"I heard someone said that you will not come back if you go out this time." Xiaozhi said.
"Oh, who said that?" Ying Xiao asked with interest, but the expression on his face changed slightly.
"That's what Uncle Wang said." Xiaozhi replied.
"Uncle Wang is afraid of death, that's why he said this, you know?" Ying Xiao said.
Xiaozhi tilted his head and thought for a while, obviously he still couldn't understand the connection. Ying Xiao didn't explain to him. He bent down and put him on the ground, slapped his butt and said, "Let's go play."
"Oh." Xiaozhi seemed a little curious about Lu Ping, Su Tang, and Mo Lin, but after hearing what Ying Xiao said, he glanced at the three of them and ran away.
"Wait for me for a while." Ying Xiao turned around and said to the three of them, then walked straight to an igloo. When he got to the door, he raised his leg and opened the door with a kick. A scream came from inside, Ying Xiao stepped in, and soon someone flew out.
"Ying Xiao, what are you doing!" The man who flew out did somersaults in the snow and then stood up straight. He was obviously a cultivator. He glared at Ying Xiao who was walking out of the igloo and asked.
"Who said I won't come back after this trip?" Ying Xiao clapped his hands in a leisurely manner, but his frantic soul power betrayed him mercilessly. At this time, he was obviously very angry. A few careless movements didn't help at all.
The person who looked like he wouldn't give up just a second ago stopped immediately when he heard this, and said with all his heart, "This... who did you listen to?"
"Don't worry about it. Anyway, I'm back now. Do you think you should fight me?" Ying Xiao said.
When Lu Ping and the other three heard this, they immediately understood that this was obviously the Uncle Wang that Xiaozhi just mentioned. When the news that the four major academies were going to attack the outside world came here, the people in the Dark Academy were generally a little panicked. Ying Xiao was sent by the Second Army to serve as an outpost in Yanmen Town, so some people thought that he would escape alone and never return. In the end, the child somehow overheard it and innocently exposed it to Ying Xiao. Ying Xiao is also a no-nonsense master. He will attack him immediately. It seems that it is that simple.
The man surnamed Wang was obviously afraid of Ying Xiao. He had dared to be tough before, but he started to feel guilty when he found out that he was the one who spread the rumor to Ying Xiao. At this time, he was looking around in a panic, already looking for someone to ask for help. In the blink of an eye, he saw the three of Lu Ping, and he was stunned.
"Who is this?" Wang took a few steps to the side, but his movements were very agile.
"My friend." Ying Xiao said.
"Friend? You can't be a spy sent by Guan Nei, right?" This man named Wang was obviously a villain. When he saw that the three of them were outsiders, he immediately became suspicious.
"Watch me tear your mouth apart!" Ying Xiao didn't explain at all, and just rushed towards the person named Wang with a single lunge. The man named Wang looked very embarrassed when he was thrown out of the house by Ying Xiao. Unexpectedly, he is extremely agile, and his movement seems to be even faster than Ying Xiao. Two vertical jumps only widened the distance between him and Ying Xiao.
"Want to help?" Lu Ping asked.
"Don't mess around." Mo Lin held Lu Ping down. After entering this dark second-level realm, Mo Lin paid attention to more than just what was in front of him. He had already noticed that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at them. Regarding their three unfamiliar faces, not everyone was just curious like a child, more eyes were full of wariness and suspicion.
"Ying Xiao!" At this moment, a scolding with a somewhat reproachful tone came. Ying Xiao, who was very unruly in Beidou Academy, showed an unbelievable and well-behaved expression after hearing this sound. However, he tried his best to control the wanton power of his body, which he usually didn't bother to do. things to do.
"Eighth Elder." Ying Xiao stopped and turned around, standing obediently in a certain direction. From there, an old man leaning on a walking stick was moving towards this direction.
"Eighth Grandpa!" Xiao Zhi appeared out of nowhere and rushed to the old man. He pointed at Wang and Ying Xiao and said, "Uncle Wang said that brother Ying Xiao will not come back. Ying Xiao My brother said that Uncle Wang is afraid of death."
"Here, what's this kid's trick?" Mo Lin looked at it in surprise. I thought he was an innocent child before, but now I see that this child is also a garrulous person!
"It's all nonsense." The old man said slightly, but then he didn't want to drive away the children like Ying Xiao did. Instead, he looked at Lu Ping and the others: "Where did the three rare guests come from?"
"Xiafeng, Zhaofeng Academy." Lu Ping said.
"Wind Picking Academy? Never heard of it." The old man shook his head and said.
"Have you heard of the name Guo Youdao?" Lu Ping took the opportunity to ask about the dean. The dean obviously had a career in the Dark Academy, but I don't know if he has gained any fame here.
"I don't know." The old man shook his head, which disappointed Lu Ping.
"Bring your friends here." The old man glanced at Ying Xiao and said, then he took Xiao Zhi by the hand and turned around to leave.
"Let's go." Ying Xiao came over to greet the three of them.
"Who is this old man?" Mo Lin asked.
"We call the eighth generation elder of the village the eighth elder." Ying Xiao said.
"Is he your village chief?" Mo Lin said.
"You can say that." Ying Xiao nodded.
"Are you going?" Mo Lin looked at Lu Ping.
"Go, maybe there will be information you want to know." Ying Xiao looked at Lu Ping and said.
"Okay." Lu Ping nodded and agreed simply. The four of them followed the eighth elder and walked towards the depths of the village on the Second Road of the Dark Academy.
