The group of people swayed left and right like strips of cloth in the strong wind, everyone wrapped tightly in their cotton jackets to endure the torture of the cold.
"Sister, put it on, otherwise you'll freeze to death. You'll know what's going on when you go in."
Before leaving, Li Qingyang dug out a coat made of fox fur from his storage bag and gave it to her. At first, Lin Yuqin thought he was making a fuss and didn't take it to heart. But when she actually stepped into the snow-capped mountains and the cold air hit her face, Lin Yuqin knew the seriousness of the matter.
Before everyone had walked more than a mile, Li Qingyang heard the team captains he assigned reporting one after another that the people in the team were starting to fail to keep up. He went to investigate and found that all of them had cold hands and feet and heavy snowflakes. The ground slapped on the face, causing the miner's eyebrows, eyelashes, beards, etc. to become covered with a layer of ice.
The heavy snow blew so hard that everyone could hardly open their eyes, and they had to pour a mouthful of snow dregs into their mouths. Against the whistling of the wind and snow, he urgently sent a message to Lin Yuqin: "Sister, stop for a moment! I will give everyone a ferry." A wisp of spiritual energy, let them hold on a little longer, the next reserve point is coming!"
"Okay, you should also be more careful!"
Lin Yuqin stopped and squinted her eyes to look at this legendary snow mountain. The clouds in the wind and snow were slowly moving from the east. On the steep and dangerous road ahead, a few slender trees that had been frozen passed by from time to time. , like smooth and delicate ice bamboos, stood out against the blue sea of mourning grass. Lin Yuqin couldn't help but think of the bamboo forest in the Forgotten Land. She was filled with emotion. She never thought that one day she would be able to Coming to such an inaccessible place alone.
Li Qingyang came back with sweat on his forehead. It seemed that supporting dozens of people was a very difficult task. On the outskirts of the Snowy Mountains, the protective spiritual power could not be withdrawn at all, otherwise they would be like the people behind them.
Under this situation, the spiritual power consumption of the two foundation-building monks was very large.
"A ray of spiritual power was useless. I gave them more to get them over. We have to move faster!" Li Qingyang gasped. This time, he led the way. The snow and fog in the snow-capped mountains were blowing. More violently.
The spiritual consciousness was only three to five feet away. Most of the time, the two of them squinted their eyes to look at the road. I don't know how long it took, but Lin Yuqin vaguely noticed that the mourning grass under her feet had softened, and she stepped on it. There was no crisp sound of 'click', 'click', and at the same time, the biting cold wind was getting weaker and weaker.
A warm and earthy wind blew by, and Lin Yuqin could see clearly that in front of him was an underground cave entrance sealed with stones, which had been completely buried by heavy snow.
Li Qingyang finally breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his hand and waved lightly, and the entrance to the tunnel collapsed immediately, revealing a deep tunnel nearly half a foot square.
"We're here, let's all go in!"
Lin Yuqin and Li Qingyang stood on both sides of the tunnel, took out a torch from the storage bag, lit it, and handed it to the leader, signaling the group of miners to go first, and the two of them would stop at the end.
The tunnel is similar to a bottle with a narrow mouth. The road becomes wider as you go further back. At first, everyone still hunches forward, but after reaching the middle section, they can walk normally. The underground is obviously not controlled by the ground. The temperature here is different from that in the snow-capped mountains. It's no different outside.
Following the echo of a series of footsteps, the miners came to a wide space. The surrounding walls were covered with unlit torches. Li Qingyang waved his sleeves again, making the place warm in an instant.
"As you can see, the two of us are immortal cultivators. It is common sense to know some magic. You don't have to panic or worry. When you go back, there will be specialized people who will erase your memories of us. , which is a good thing for you.”
The miners were like a group of docile sheep who did not dare to resist. Some of them suddenly realized at this moment that it was not the first time for some of them to mine. No wonder it was useless to think about how to get in and out of the snowy mountains. All they could think about was digging. The impression of mine, this is the reason for this amnesia!
"Take a rest for a while before continuing." Li Qingyang turned around and whispered: "Sister, let's go and rest for a while." Lin Yuqin agreed, and the two quickly left, and they followed the tunnel to another underground cave. The hall is much smaller than the previous one.
Ever since Lin Yuqin finished crying, she had kept silent about going back and just followed the team silently. Li Qingyang felt that he should enlighten her. Now was a suitable opportunity. Thinking of this, he took the lead and said:
"Sister, I heard from uncle that you brought back a senior brother from your sect, and you wanted to let uncle and the others take a look, right?"
Lin Yuqin looked at Li Qingyang: "What did my father tell you?"
Li Qingyang hesitated for a while after hearing this, but finally made up his mind and said: "Uncle said that he doesn't like this person, and so does aunt. They said that you are still young and can find a more suitable Taoist companion than him. Don't just Such a careless decision.”
Li Qingyang only repeated half of what he said, and the rest was that Lin Yuqin's father, Lin Xiao, knew what he was thinking. If he pursued Lin Yuqin, he would not stand in the way and would only accept it happily. After all, the two children had known each other since they were young, and their backgrounds and identities It's obvious at a glance, but in this situation, it would be foolish for Li Qingyang to really say it.
"Qingyang, are you sure what you said is true?" Lin Yuqin suddenly frowned.
"Absolutely true."
"...What on earth is going on?" Lin Yuqin suddenly had a premonition that she had been deceived by her family.
Lin Bin gave her an idea and asked her to test Chen Mo's attitude by taking advantage of the opportunity to do tasks for the family. However, when her father came, he disagreed and even let Li Qingyang get involved.
Was it his father's ulterior motives, or was it his grandfather who had deliberately interfered and disrupted the situation from the beginning?
Lin Yuqin didn't agree to do this at first. She knew that what Chen Mo hated most was malicious temptations from others. Not only would this test not yield results, but it would also anger him.
Lin Bin guaranteed and guaranteed, and said that he had lived for so many years and had never looked at anyone wrongly. He also promised that no matter whether it was success or failure, he would have a solution. Lin Yuqin felt relieved and listened to him. suggestions.
Now that Chen Mo has not come, she has every reason to suspect that her grandfather and father are the same person, and this matter was a conspiracy against her from the beginning.
"You won't know until you go back after finishing your work!"
Lin Yuqin was so anxious that she wished there was an ultra-long-distance teleportation array here. Even if she had to pay hundreds of times the spiritual stones, she would rush back at all costs.
This scene was all seen by Li Qingyang, and a trace of anger suddenly rose in his heart. Why can't she treat him like this? Is it because the moon comes first when the water is close to the building? Why?
"Sister! He doesn't deserve you to be so nice to him! The more you pay, the more he thinks it's a matter of course!"
"Qingyang, this matter has nothing to do with you!"
"You should be glad that he didn't come, otherwise I would give him a hard lesson for you and beat him until he has teeth all over the floor, so that he can know what he did wrong!"
"Stop talking!" Lin Yuqin frowned.
"There are many such teasing monks in the Snowy Mountains! Sister, listen to me and stay away from him as soon as possible! My uncle is right, he is not worthy of you at all! You are still very young, you should find someone more suitable... ..."
"--Snapped!"
There was a loud slap on Li Qingyang's cheek. Not only the people who were slapped were stunned, as if they couldn't believe what happened, but even the instigator was dumbfounded: "Yes... I'm sorry, I was impulsive." It's..." Lin Yuqin's face was full of regret, and she raised her hand as if to touch her face.
"Sister, you have changed."
Li Qingyang glanced at her desperately, and immediately pushed her hand aside, his eyes filled with hatred and unwillingness towards her.
"Let's set off, this matter ends here!" He said this calmly, turned around and left the cave hall, leaving only Lin Yuqin, who was stunned.
