After a few words of greeting, the two fell silent again.
If it were someone with a lower cultivation level than himself, Wu Sheng would not be afraid. He might even hope that the other party would make rude remarks or simply attack him, so that he could carry out the punishment from heaven, which not only satisfied his sense of justice, but also made a fortune.
But from just peeping, I knew that Xuan Mingzi was much stronger than me, and I didn't know what tricks the other party was hiding, or if there were any accomplices nearby, so I kept urging in my heart: "You should leave quickly, we really have nothing to do with each other. Talkable!”
Xuan Mingzi seemed to hear what he was thinking. He laughed a few words and then clasped his fists: "Then..."
While he was talking, dark clouds suddenly rolled up in the distant sky, and the darkness came over here. The wind suddenly rose, and fist-sized hailstones fell densely, and the surrounding area was plunged into darkness.
The weather in the ice field is completely unreasonable.
Wu Sheng immediately urged: "Then I won't send it away..." The wind was so loud and strong that his body felt like he was going to ride on the wind. Even he could not hear the words clearly.
Xuan Mingzi didn't bother to talk to Wu Sheng. He shook his hand and threw out a whisk, frantically digging a hole in the snow. In a blink of an eye, he dug a deep hole and jumped in immediately. In the ice and snow, everyone's means of survival are almost the same.
Wu Sheng also ignored the rest and turned around and fled back to his snow cave to escape the extreme ice and snow weather.
The wind force was far stronger than before. Even though Wu Sheng was digging a curved snow cave, the strong wind was still blowing snowflakes into it. Wu Sheng felt increasingly cold and shivering from the cold. The Dan Fire in Zu Ling's Circumferential Furnace was also blown by the wind. To sway means to extinguish.
With strangers around, he could no longer protect the snow cave with his true energy as before. Every ounce of true energy had to be used to prepare for unexpected events. As a last resort, Wu Sheng had no choice but to continue digging inward to form another corner of the snow cave, and another Pull out a few thick wooden boards and insert them outside to form a simple door, so that you can relax.
The person was roasting the elixir fire in the snow cave, and his spiritual sense was released, always paying attention to Xuan Mingzi not far away. Unexpectedly, not long after that, there was movement behind him. Wu Sheng listened carefully and heard the rapid and cold rustling sound, but he didn't know what it was. His brows furrowed and he was on full alert.
The movement came very quickly, and within the blink of an eye it was within the range of his spiritual consciousness. Wu Sheng was startled, sighed, and moved to the side.
The ice layer on the cave wall suddenly broke open, and a whisk came in in a circle, then quickly retracted it, and continued to expand the entrance of the cave. Xuan Mingzi poked his head out, smiled at Wu Sheng, and said: "The wind and snow are too heavy, so we have to dig deeper... I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Wu."
After saying that, he got in, patted the thick blanket Wu Sheng spread on the ice bed, sat on it and said, "It's more comfortable here, fellow Taoist, and there's a fire... Is this an alchemy furnace? What a good idea, alchemy furnace." It's hard to extinguish a fire, why didn't I think of it? My fellow Taoist is an alchemist?"
Wu Sheng recalled: "Fellow Xuanming knew right away that this was not a good alchemy furnace... I once knew an alchemist whose furnace was a good treasure. Unfortunately, I didn't know how to use it properly. The stove is ruined, otherwise why dig a snow cave?"
Xuan Mingzi asked: "Oh? Which alchemist is he?"
Wu Sheng thought for a while and said, "I don't need to mention the name of Yun Jishi."
"The alchemist..."
"Killed by me."
"Oh... Yunji has a large number of people and has always been domineering. You killed their alchemy master. Are you here to avoid revenge?"
"It is true that several people from the Yunji world came to seek revenge, but I also killed them. I came to the ice plain not to avoid revenge, and I am not afraid of them seeking revenge. I came to practice. To practice in this bitter cold place, to cultivate my spiritual consciousness and mind It will be of great benefit."
"I see......"
"Where are fellow Taoists? Are you here to practice in the ice field?"
"That's not true... Pindao is here to avoid revenge."
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
"Pindao has done a great job in the Immortal World. Well, there are a dozen or so people in a sect. It's okay not to mention it. You may know it when you go out in the future. The other sects in the Immortal World will definitely try to catch Pindao and then hurry up. Pindao I have no choice but to come here to hide in the ice field and make my fellow Taoists laugh."
"Liexianshi?" Wu Sheng thought for a moment and asked: "I know Lixianshi
Fang Hui, does the Taoist know his whereabouts?"
Xuan Mingzi thought for a moment and said, "I seem to have heard of him. I wonder why you are looking for him?"
Wu Sheng took out a bag of Yunying's Mother from the storage artifact and showed it to Xuan Mingzi: "This person owes me Yunying's Mother, but he has been hiding and refusing to give it. However, he has hidden it well and searched everywhere without finding it."
Xuan Mingzi said "Ah", took the bag, took a look inside, and handed it back to Wu Sheng, filled with righteous indignation: "Such a thief, as expected, I can't spare him, so I left the ice field to investigate for my Taoist friends." , you don’t need fellow Taoist to take action, if you hide anything, the poor Taoist will make him spit it out!”
Wu Sheng solemnly handed over his hand: "So, thank you so much, Taoist Master!"
After some conversation, the tight skin on their faces relaxed, and each of them smiled. The tense atmosphere in the snow cave also eased a lot.
Wu Sheng took out a pot of spirit wine and put it on the alchemy stove to warm it. After a while, the pot was filled with hot steam. Wu Sheng handed the jug over: "This is the Fengtai spirit wine given to me by Mr. and Mrs. Xiao Shi of Fengtai in Woye. Every time he and his wife make good wine, they will leave a jar with me. The wine left behind is the best wine, which is usually not available in Fengtai. Today, I am destined to drink it with you."
Xuan Mingzi said: "How did this happen? I took refuge in the underground cave that my Taoist carefully built, and I also drank the wine of my Taoist. If word spread, would Pindao still be a human being? It just so happened that Pindao had a jar of Songli wine here. , comes from Liexianshiyan Mountain, brewed by Juan Lao, using pine wood and red carp as ingredients. Drinking it can withstand wind and rain... What? Juanlao, fellow Taoist, don't you know? Juanlao, who is famous in Liexianshi Lao Juan, Lao Juan who practices Boyang’s Nine Immortals... Yes, yes, that’s Juanzi. This is what he lost to me when I sat down with him to discuss.”
"Drink my Fengtai wine first. Even Mr. Wu Chang has agreed to drink this wine..."
"It's better to drink pine carp wine first. Fellow Taoist, you can try the old trick..."
"I'm sorry, Taoist Master Xuanming. Wu is allergic to pine and bamboo. Whenever he comes into contact with the smell, he feels uncomfortable, gets angry, and easily hurts people. There used to be a man named Song Takako, and that's what happened, haha... ...It’s all in the past, so don’t mention it.”
"Pine bait wood, not pine wood."
"Anything with the word "pine" in it won't work."
"Haha, that's interesting... Taoist friend is so open-minded, and it's hard for Pindao to hide it from you. Pindao has some quarrels with Xiao Shi and his wife. Pindao doesn't want to get involved in the wine they brew. Half a drop, of course, it’s not because the Taoist friend’s wine is not good, it’s just because the poor Taoist can’t get over the hurdle in his heart.”
"Ah, it's my fault. Wu doesn't know. Don't blame the Taoist priest."
"Where it is, it has nothing to do with fellow Taoist."
In the end, Wu Sheng and Xuan Mingzi each cooked their own wine on the alchemy stove. While toasting each other, they also talked about world affairs and commented on the great immortals and gods and the harmony of the world. It was really enjoyable!
