Tian Xiaoding assisted the demon princess and defeated the remaining five ghost generals.
What Xiao Ding didn't expect was that when the demon princess saw the ghost people running away, she actually gave the order: "Chase!" and then chased after them with four maids.
This silly girl! Xiao Ding sighed secretly, and then followed him with Ouyang Qing and Ah Li, fearing that the demon princess would be ambushed by the ghost tribe.
The five ghost tribesmen in the ghost general realm fled in the direction of the top of the snow mountain. Xiaoding didn't know why those ghost tribesmen were running away towards the top of the mountain, so he could only follow them.
What he was most worried about was the demon princess and the four maids. If they were damaged in any way, the remaining three on their side would not be able to confront the five ghost generals of the ghost clan.
Therefore, in order to protect himself, he had to take into account the safety of the demon princess.
The five ghost clan members all turned into the dark wind and flew to the top of the snow-capped mountains. The demon princess and four maids flew in the wind and flew to the top of the snow-capped mountains. Xiao Ding and the other three couldn't fly with the wind, so they had no choice but to use their weapons to fly towards the top of the mountain.
On a moonlit night, the snow-capped mountains are covered in vast whiteness. Although it is not as bright as daytime, it is not dark either.
When Xiao Ding and the others arrived at the top of the mountain, they only saw the demon princess and four maids, standing on the top of the mountain looking towards the opposite cliff.
"Did they escape?" Xiao Ding asked from behind the demon princess.
"They fled towards the Wangchen River." The demon princess replied disappointedly.
"Isn't the Wangchen River on the way we came here? Why is there a Wangchen River nearby?" Xiao Ding asked strangely.
The demon princess replied expressionlessly: "There are mountainous areas around here for thousands of miles. The Wangchen River extends along the valley, twisting and turning. Wherever the terrain is low, it will go wherever it goes. So what? Will it only extend in one direction?"
When Xiao Ding thought about it, the demon princess was right. So he advised: "Since we have escaped, let's go back first."
The demon princess said bitterly: "They killed more than twenty of my guards and drank their blood..."
Xiao Ding knew that the demon princess was a little unwilling to let those ghost people go, but since they had already escaped, there was nothing they could do. He could only continue to persuade: "We can only wait for the response team sent by your father to arrive, and then look for an opportunity to avenge your guards."
The demon princess sighed softly and murmured with some remorse: "I mobilized my troops this time, but I couldn't find Xue Yuyi to save my mother, but I lost so many guards all at once, alas..."
Xiao Ding could understand the mood of the demon princess at this time, and comforted her: "Since things have happened, they cannot be changed. Let's go down the mountain to rest first. Will we continue to look for the snow feather clothes on the top of the mountain tomorrow?"
The demon princess nodded slightly and said sincerely: "Thank you for your help tonight. If it weren't for your help, we might have been wiped out."
Xiao Ding waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, I'm here for Xue Yuyi too."
The demon princess raised her eyes to look at Xiao Ding and asked, "By the way, what's your name? I haven't known your name for so many days?"
Xiao Ding smiled slightly and said, "Both of us, and I don't know the princess's name either."
The demon princess also smiled and said, "My name is Han Jiangxue, what's yours?"
Xiao Ding was stunned, and he immediately remembered the ancient poem he had memorized on Earth: "A man with a coir raincoat hat is alone in a boat, fishing alone in the snow in the cold river."
"My name is Tian Xiaoding. Your name is very special. Could it be that you demons can also have the surname Han?"
The demon princess shook her head and explained: "We demons are different from you humans. You humans have a lot to pay attention to when naming, including surname, ranking, seniority, etc. We demons are very casual in naming. When you are born, if you see something, you will be named after what you saw."
"So, your mother must have been watching Han Jiangxue when you were born?" Xiao Ding guessed. He felt that the naming method of the demon clan seemed to be similar to the naming method of Little Japan on Earth in later generations. Small
Japanese surnames are named after the place where they were born. For example, those born by the river have the surname Watanabe, those born at the foot of the mountain have the surname Yamashita, and those born in the village have the surname Nakamura, Kimura, Okamura, etc. . .z.br>
"Yes, that's right. I heard from my mother that during the period before I was born, my mother was living near Hanjiang River on the outskirts of our city for vacation and recuperation, and there happened to be a heavy snowfall on the day I was born. . So my mother named me Han Jiangxue." The demon princess recalled.
"The name is quite nice. You may not know that some of us humans once wrote a poem, and two lines in it are: "A man with a coir raincoat in a boat, fishing alone in the snow in the cold river." "
"Really? What do these two lines of poetry mean? I don't quite understand your human poetry." asked the demon princess.
Xiao Ding immediately explained: "The meaning of these two poems is that a fisherman wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat is sitting on a lonely boat, fishing alone in the wind and snow."
"Wow! It's so desolate. Why do I feel so lonely in these two poems?" the demon princess said with a frown.
Xiao Ding nodded and said: "You can feel loneliness, which means you can still understand the inner meaning of these two poems. However, for the fisherman, it is a bit lonely, but for us, don't you think Are these two poems more like a beautiful painting?"
The demon princess rolled her eyes and agreed: "If it were painted into a painting, it should be a very artistic picture."
Xiao Ding looked at the vast white snow below the cliff, and then persuaded again: "Princess, let's go back and rest first. We will come here tomorrow to look for Xue Yuyi."
The demon princess nodded, but did not move. She still looked at Xiaoding with bright eyes and said, "Your name is Tian Xiaoding, right? Why do you humans know so much? By the way, I saw you before To deal with those ghosts, it seems that a lot of monsters have been summoned to help you. It seems that you have quite a lot of tricks."
Xiao Ding smiled awkwardly. He didn't plan to talk too much about this topic. After all, this was his own way to save his life. He couldn't just tell others all about his past.
So he said vaguely: "Those are just some demon pets that I have surrendered before. They can be of some help at critical moments. If you meet a master, it won't work."
The demon princess said with envy: "I wish I had some demon pets, but unfortunately there are too few demon beasts in Xuewangzhou. Even if there are, many of them have been captured by the ghost tribe and sucked their blood. These ghost tribesmen, It’s simply too hateful!”
Xiao Ding saw the gnashing of teeth of the demon princess and couldn't help but ask: "Princess, I see that you seem to hate the ghost people to the core, don't you?"
Only then did the demon princess realize what she had just done. She sighed and said faintly: "You don't know, my mother was harmed by the ghost people and became like this. If I hadn't saved my mother, how could I have done it?" Will come all the way here.”
"I see. I think we should go back first. When it gets daylight, we will come over and look for the Snow Yuyi carefully." Xiao Ding once again persuaded the demon princess to go back and rest.
The demon princess looked at the bright moon that was already in the sky, sighed, then turned around and said, "Let's go back first."
Everyone turned around and was about to go back along the original route. Suddenly, everyone's eyes fell on the middle of the top of the mountain.
These people are all cultivators, and their hearing and vision are many times better than ordinary people. Not to mention on the snow with a bright moon, they can see in the dark even in the dark night.
At this moment, everyone saw that in the middle of the mountain top, the snow on the ground was slowly swelling. After a while, something came out of the snow.
Everyone felt strange and hurriedly came closer to watch.
The thing that came out of the snow was round and white, almost the same color as the snow. However, this round thing was made up of leaves wrapped in layers.
As more and more parts emerge from the snow, the white leaves on the surface of the round thing begin to open one by one, and the leaves inside are also slowly stretching and opening.
open……
"Snow Yuyi!" Everyone shouted in unison.
This was the first thought that ran through their minds.
All eyes were focused on this plant that had just emerged from the snow. I saw that the opened leaves were fluffy, like bird feathers.
"This must be Yuki Yuromo!" the demon princess shouted in surprise.
"Don't worry, let's take a look first and then talk." Xiao Ding seemed very calm.
Judging from the leaves of this plant, it was indeed somewhat similar to the Xue Yuyi that he had heard of before. However, he could not figure out why it took the middle of the night for this Xue Yuyi to emerge from the snow? No wonder the demons searched for it for three days but couldn't find it. It hides in the snow during the day and cannot be discovered at all.
The Snow Plumeria in the snow is still slowly spreading its leaves. The leaves that had been tightly wrapped together slowly opened under the moonlight, revealing layers of fresh leaves inside.
There are about twenty furry leaves in total. After they are all opened, a large purple flower appears in the innermost part. The flowers are the size of a washbasin and are like leaves, wrapped in layers. The shape is similar to common cabbage flowers. However, these petals are also furry, like feathers.
"It's indeed Xue Yuyi!" Xiao Ding affirmed.
"We finally found it!" the demon princess said happily.
"This snowy feather coat belongs to our princess, you are not allowed to steal it!" The four maids stared at Xiao Ding and the three of them warily.
Xiao Ding glanced sideways at the four maids and said to himself, if we really want to rob them, you may not be able to hold on.
However, he said: "You just need to give me the part that belongs to me as agreed."
