Arriving at the entrance of the village, Wu Fan suddenly felt something was wrong. He must have been under the cover of the blizzard just now and had an illusion. When he came closer, he realized that this place was several times bigger than he imagined! It's more like a city than a village.
Looking into the distance and comparing it in mind, if the undulating buildings in the distance are also buildings, then the scale here is not much different from that of Yangdu City.
Jumping to the roof along the collapsed city wall, Wufan felt like he was crumbling every time he took a step.
The roof here has long been in dilapidated condition due to years of exposure to wind and cold. At this moment, it finally couldn't bear the weight of the visitors, and expressed its welcome with the last bit of strength, dragging Wu Fan and Qi Xue into the room...
The snow that pressed down on him was so heavy that it was no less heavy than the earth and rocks. It actually gave Wu Fan a suffocating feeling of being buried alive.
Fortunately, the snow was still loose, and Wu Fan still had some skills, so he dug it out without much effort.
I thought that the room would be very dark because it was blocked from all sides, but the ice under my feet was emitting a dazzling light, as if there was another sun frozen below.
Using the light, Wu Fan observed his surroundings. This was an ordinary room, nothing unusual.
Half-kneeling, he breathed toward the ice beneath his feet and wiped away the excess snow. Wu Fan squinted his eyes and saw tea and snacks placed on the table under the ice, which meant that something happened suddenly here.
But when he thought about it, he found it strange that the three feet of ice did not freeze in a day. After soaking in the water for so long, he thought that the snacks were made of jade lumps and would not float and swell. The color of the tea in the cup was bright and clear, no matter it was How could there be such an obvious layering...
Thinking of this, Wu Fan looked away a few more times, the suspicion in his eyes getting stronger and stronger.
Everything here seems normal but is abnormal, revealing weirdness from the inside out!
"The Heavenly Tribulation Divine Thunder, the Heavenly Tribulation Divine Thunder, what the hell did you send me to?" Wu Fan was really depressed and couldn't help but mutter to himself. This place was both familiar and strange. Although he had some impressions, he felt convinced that he had never been there before.
However, it is impossible for the Heavenly Tribulation Divine Thunder to give any answer. It seems that it will not be able to come for a while, and Wu Fan can only look for clues on his own.
Looking at the bright hollow above his head, Wu Fan was about to find a place to go out, when he suddenly caught an unnatural reflection of light and shadow from the corner of his eye.
"Why is there a cave here? No...it should be more accurate to say it's an ice cave." The entrance to the cave is in the corner of the room. It is very hidden. It would be difficult to spot it if Wu Fan hadn't been sharp-eyed.
"Could it be that... someone has been here before?" After observing the situation here, the edge of the cave wall here is covered with ferocious claw marks, and there are some hairs scattered on the ground. It seems that these masterpieces are not made by humans.
"Master, the atmosphere... is not good. If you go down, you may get into trouble!" The opera ghost noticed what was going on and hurriedly warned.
Wu Fan nodded slightly, then grinned: "I'll take care of myself now that I've come. Since the Heavenly Tribulation Divine Thunder sent me here, maybe it's just to solve these troubles! Let's go! Go down and meet them!"
Not to mention that he has two helpers, Lao Xian and Xi Gui. Now those ghost golden sheep have become incredibly powerful. As long as it is not a particularly troublesome matter, there is basically no need for him to come forward, so there is no need to worry at all.
Although the old fairy is lazy, he is also a master who is not afraid of trouble. He wanted to use his own perspective to observe the surrounding situation in advance, but there were light reflections everywhere, which dazzled him for a while, and he did not mention it again in a daze. Can't help but feel energetic...
Although the stone wall slopes downward, fortunately the surface is rough, allowing Wu Fan to descend slowly.
When he arrived at the exit, Wu Fan realized that the ice cave was a passage connecting two rooms.
Compared with the previous room at the entrance, this room is obviously much larger. Perhaps because there is very little ice and snow here, it seems a bit empty.
"Master, something is coming!" The old fairy was still dizzy, and the opera ghost reminded him hurriedly.
Sure enough, as soon as the opera ghost finished speaking, Wu Fan felt the ground beneath his feet shaking slightly.
Several black shadows surrounded him from all directions.
"Ah!" Seeing this situation, memories came rushing back like a tide, causing Wu Fan to exclaim, "Handrill! I remembered, this is... Death River Country!"
Although many years have passed, Wu Fan still remembers their name clearly. After all, they caused a lot of trouble to me when he came here for the trial!
But what he saw in front of him was slightly different from his memory. Although these Han Mandrills also had eyes like ruby, the group of guys that were surrounding them from all directions had gray hair and were thin, as if they were dead wood. . It is completely different from the white hair, big shoulders and round waist in my memory...
"Did I remember it wrong?" Wu Fan frowned slightly, turning a blind eye to Han Mandrill who was already in front of him.
"Roar!" Maybe they felt that the guy in front of them didn't take him seriously at all, so several Han Mandrills let out an angry roar, eager to crush Wu Fan's corpse into powder!
"I happen to be a little bored, so I'll use you to warm up!" Since I could get rid of Han Mandrill back then, it's not a problem for Wu Fan now, so he doesn't need Ghost Golden Sheep's help for this kind of thing.
The attack fell on Han Mandrill, and Wu Fan suddenly felt a numbness in his hand, as if he had been struck by a piece of dark iron, and he hurriedly withdrew.
"What's going on?" Although Han Mandrill couldn't hurt him at all with his strength, Wu Fan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. Although he was a little passive back then, it wasn't that difficult to deal with Han Mandrill... although the method was a bit inelegant. , is to poke Han Mandrill in the butt with a weapon.
There are no outsiders present, but Wu Fan can't do the poking thing anyway, and even if he wanted to, the old immortal probably wouldn't agree.
Since they couldn't be solved by force, Wu Fan didn't intend to show any mercy. He was going to let the still dizzy old immortal communicate with the extremely yin spiritual energy and kill them on the spot!
"Hooooo!" Suddenly, a loud voice interrupted the movements of all the mandrills, and a larger mandrill fell from the top of his head, stirring up crystals all over the ground.
This cold mandrill has one eye, and the blind half of its face is covered with claw marks, making it look extremely ferocious.
He breathed heavily through his nose and slowly approached Wu Fan.
"Ugh...little friend...should we do it now?" the old immortal said weakly, barely pulling himself together.
"Wait a minute..." Wu Fan replied, "I feel like he... doesn't have any malicious intent."
People always like to compare themselves with ferocious beasts, trying to show their harmlessness. Little do we know that compared to ferocious beasts, humans themselves are actually more dangerous!
Because what they are best at is hiding their emotions. They are often smiling all the time one moment, but they will be facing each other with swords the next moment, and they can never see through it.
The ferocious beasts are much simpler. They either see the prey showing its ferocious look, or they sense a threat and run away with their tail between their legs. There is never any buffer between the two emotions.
This was the case now. Wu Fan didn't see any threat in the eyes of the one-eyed Han Mandrill who looked like a leader, only a trace of vigilance and uneasiness.
The cold mandrill suddenly stopped when it was still some distance away from him, sniffed at him, and then suddenly his knees softened and knelt on the ground, began to kowtow to himself, and then motioned to the cold mandrill next to him to kneel down with him.
Wu Fan was startled by this sudden situation. He really couldn't figure out what the other party was doing...
Due to the majesty of the leader, some Han Mandrills knelt down even though they were reluctant.
Where there is obedience, there will be rebels, and immediately Han Mandrill made a voice of incomprehension. But as soon as it opened its mouth, the one-eyed mandrill flew out with a palm and hit the ice wall in the distance with a roar.
"Roar...wuwu..." The one-eyed mandrill spread his hands in a very humane manner, showing that he had no hostility. Then he slowly leaned down and pointed in the direction of his head.
When Wu Fan saw this, he immediately understood that the other party wanted to take him somewhere.
Could it be that...this is the purpose of the Heavenly Tribulation Divine Thunder?
With this kind of doubt, Wu Fan sat on Han Mandrill's back in a daze, and then he was carried by it along the way, through the maze-like passage, and came to a space that was wider than the previous fight.
Released by the cold mandrill
On the ground, the other party gently pushed his back, indicating that he should continue moving forward.
Realizing that this was the source of the bloody smell, Wu Fan's expression suddenly became strange, and he thought to himself: Could this be a cook, here to welcome the ingredients back to their place? And the previous actions were actually to thank God for giving food?
Thinking like this, Wu Fan was already ready to summon the Ghost Golden Sheep... But when he came to the exit and saw the situation in front of him clearly, he was slightly startled.
It turns out that this is not the kitchen, but the delivery room. There is a female mandrill in there that has finished giving birth, but there are still blood stains slowly spreading under her body! If the temperature here hadn't been too low to slow down the blood flow, I'm afraid its blood would have dried up.
Although he didn't know the reason, it was obvious that this one-eyed mandrill came to him for help.
Seeing the pitiful appearance of the one-eyed Han Mandrill, Wu Fan couldn't bear to die without saving him, so he hurriedly came to the mother Han Mandrill.
The strange thing is that this female Han Mandrill did not bleed because of giving birth, but suffered some kind of trauma. There was a wound along the shoulder directly down to the waist. Fortunately, it was covered with grass pulp.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Wu Fan already understood something. The footprints he saw before were probably left by them. The herbs in front of him were the best proof.
Under this ice and snow, I don’t know where they found these things...
Judging from the current situation, One-Eyed Handrill has obviously treated the injury for his mother Handrill. All he needs now is some healing time, and there is absolutely no need for him to help.
Wu Fan looked at One-Eyed Handrill in confusion, saying that he did not understand the other party's intentions.
The one-eyed mandrill understood and hurriedly got behind the mother mandrill and scraped off some of the grass pulp, revealing the hideous wound inside.
"Hiss..." Seeing this situation, Wu Fan shrank his pupils and exclaimed: "This is cold poison!"
Mu Fengchun once told himself about the origin of the cold poison in Death Sichuan Kingdom, but Wu Fan never thought that he would be lucky enough to see it with his own eyes.
"Could it be that this is the true purpose of the Heavenly Tribulation Divine Thunder?" Wu Fan frowned, suddenly feeling powerless.
"Roar...wuwu..." One-eyed Hanzhao saw that Wu Fan was a little distracted and hurriedly urged him, signaling the latter to help.
"I'm really sorry...I can't help you right now..." The medicinal materials in front of him are all for stopping bleeding and reducing inflammation. Wu Fan is now empty-handed. Even if he has a good prescription, he is powerless. After all, even if he goes out to find medicinal herbs, it is too late.
"Uh huh! Roar!" One-eyed Han Mandrill came to Wu Fan's side with humility, raised his finger and pointed at Wu Fan's chest, and then kowtowed repeatedly.
It is true that Wu Fan has the detoxifying elixir from Bixia Valley, but the properties of this cold poison are different and cannot be solved by ordinary detoxifying elixirs.
He took out the medicine bottle and was about to explain it to the one-eyed mandrill when he saw the latter looking expectantly at his purple sachet!
