Qi Xuansu is a heavenly being, and the others are all innate beings in the stage of returning to their true form, so traveling across the mountainous area is not a problem. In fact, if there were not these wounded, Qi Xuansu could fly directly. Regardless of the number of counties, Fenglinzhou is not the Central Plains after all. A county here is far from comparable to a prefecture in the Central Plains. At most, it is the size of a county in the Central Plains. By riding the wind, Qi Xuansu could reach Hita City very quickly.
After entering the mountainous area, although it was already spring, the spring was cold and the snow still had not melted. The deeper you go and the higher you go, the more snow there is. When we arrived at the remote mountains and old forests where there were no people around, we couldn't even see any footprints. Looking up, we saw a blanket of snow, with thick snow on the trees and on the ground.
At dusk, the wind actually picked up.
The cold wind was biting, the air was biting, the temperature dropped suddenly, and the dripping water condensed into ice.
However, it has little impact on a few people. Needless to say, Qi Xuansu has a heavenly body and is immune to cold and heat. Although the other people do not have the same level of cultivation as Qi Xuansu, they all wear crane cloaks. This is the benefit of Taoist clothing. The crane cloak itself is a double-breasted, wide-sleeved, long coat, somewhat similar to a Western coat, but more sophisticated. It is spacious and divided into two styles: winter and summer. Naturally, the winter style crane cloak is worn at this time. It is the best protection against cold and wind. Even if there is no big cloak and the cultivation level is close to the body, it is nothing.
Because it was a special period, the group of people never took a break and continued to travel in the dark. Around the beginning of Haishi, there were snow particles in the wind, which hit my face painfully. After a while, it started to snow.
The snow came quickly and urgently, and turned into a blizzard in the blink of an eye. It was already late at night, and it was still in the deep mountains and forests, which is the easiest place for ghosts to hit the wall. The road was blocked by heavy snow, and for a while, the sky and the earth were completely blurred. What? I can't see clearly, let alone the north, south, east, and west.
This is almost a natural maze. Many times, when you think you are walking in a straight line, you are actually walking in an arc, and in the end you are walking in a circle to return to the original place.
Again, if Qi Xuansu was alone at this time, it would be easy to do anything. The simplest way would be to fly away, or to use brute force. Qi Xuansu could cut down trees all the way. The key is that Qi Xuansu brought a group of wounded soldiers with him. It was true that they were at the stage of returning to the true state of cultivation, but all of them were seriously injured. It would take two or three days for the strongest martial artist to recover as before. Now they are basically a burden.
He didn't have Qingyun, who had banished the immortal, to fly with people. Even if he had Qingyun, he wouldn't be able to carry so many people, at most one. He also does not have the heritage of a Qi Refiner. If he is a Qi Refiner at the Infinite Stage, he can truly call upon the wind and rain, and it should not be difficult to disperse this sudden blizzard.
The more important point is that this is Fenglin Continent. Not to mention the feudal lords, the ghosts and gods in Fenglin Continent are much stronger than those in the Central Plains.
It’s not that the ghosts and gods in the Central Plains are helpless, but because the ghosts and gods in the Central Plains have been suppressed by the Taoist sect. The Demon Suppressing Well and the Demon Locking Tower were not built in vain. For example, the Qingqiu Mountain lineage directly submitted to the Taoist sect, so it is difficult to see them. Demons, ghosts, evil spirits and the like. But Fenglinzhou is different. It is said to have eight million ghosts and gods, and there are often scenes of hundreds of ghosts walking at night, and there are countless evil spirits.
This is like two mountain forests. In the mountain forest called the Central Plains, because there are too many hunters, the jackals, tigers and leopards are almost extinct. The bears and the like are also locked up, leaving some silly roe deer outside, and even many forests have been cut down. It's very safe. You might fall to death if you go up the mountain to cut firewood in the middle of the night, but you won't be snatched away by a wolf.
The mountain forest named Fenglinzhou is well "protected" because there are too few hunters, and it retains a lot of original scenery. Fierce beasts can be seen everywhere in the forest, and there are also many wild beasts that have escaped from the mountains and forests of the Central Plains. They form groups and even brazenly attack villages on their own initiative.
Qi Xuansu was deeply touched by this. As soon as he arrived at Fenglin Continent, he was attacked by the peerless demon Yamata no Orochi. If this was placed in the Central Plains, the probability of him being attacked by the Immortal Immortal was higher than the probability of being attacked by the Great Demon.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu couldn't cut down trees all the way and make too much noise. If he really wanted to attract something, what would happen to the wounded if he could escape?
Qi Xuansu stopped and turned around to look.
A few qigong practitioners and martial artists were okay. As an alchemist, Lu Yuting was already weak and injured. In this severe cold environment, she couldn't hold on any longer, and her face turned pale from the cold.
Qi Xuansu knew that if he endured it any longer, even if he could not die from the cold, he would still get some of the root causes of the disease. This is the fault of the alchemists, they are too weak, but in such a large-scale war, alchemists are indispensable, especially the assembled alchemists. If there is a standard alchemist camp, there are too many things that can be done, and it is not difficult to burn mountains and cook seas.
Qi Xuansu sighed and said, "We can't rush any longer. We have to find a place to avoid the wind and snow."
There was nothing wrong with him just standing in the snow all night, but he had to think about other people.
Lu Yuting held on and said, "Deputy Hall Master, there is something weird about this snow."
Qi Xuansu was stunned for a moment and asked, "How do you say that?"
Lu Yuting said: "The snow is too sudden and too gloomy. The deputy hall master's cultivation level is too high, and the snow can't get close to him, so the deputy hall master can't feel it. But I can feel it clearly. Whenever snowflakes fall on my body, an extremely fine ray of Yin energy quietly seeps into my body. Logically speaking, even if I am physically weak, I am still stronger than an ordinary person compared to a Qi practitioner or martial artist. If you have a lot of money, you are not a delicate daughter, so you shouldn't be so helpless."
Qi Xuansu removed his body-protecting energy, reached out to catch some snowflakes, and felt them carefully on his fingertips.
Then his face changed slightly. Just as Lu Yuting said, the snow is indeed mixed with extremely fine Yin Qi. If it is there or not, the warriors have strong Qi and blood, and the Qi Refiners have the body-protecting Qi. It is not easy to detect it, except for the body. Only Lu Yuting, an alchemist, can feel it. This sudden blizzard was indeed a bit strange.
It's just that it's not easy to tell whether it's because of this mountain forest or whether someone is using tricks behind the scenes.
Han Yongfeng said: "There is an evil nature in Fenglinzhou. It is said that when a country is about to perish, there must be evildoers. Fenglinzhou is known as the eternal lineage, but I heard that there was once an emperor of Fenglinzhou who directly became a He became a monster, which seems to be called a "tengu". There was also an emperor of Fenglinzhou who married a vixen as his queen. If the emperor was like this, you can imagine it in other places as well. If you ask me, what is the eternal lineage? Death is not dead, death is not dead, so the monsters here are endless and they can’t stop.”
Others think so.
Except for Emperor Xin in ancient times who once married a nine-tailed sky fox, subsequent emperors have never heard of anyone marrying a monster, let alone the emperor directly turning into a monster. This was a major event that would alarm the three religions. .
As for Donghuang, he also married a nine-tailed sky fox as his wife, but he is not an emperor, and has nothing to do with the fate of the country. Can the immortal's affairs be generalized? This is a beautiful story. However, Xuansheng and Mrs. Xuansheng both achieved immortality and were destined to have no heirs. The important task of inheriting the Li family fell on Donghuang. Therefore, many people suspected that the Li family had the blood of the Qingqiu Mountain fox demon. This is kept secret.
Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu also discussed this topic in private. The Zhang family has the blood of ancient immortals, the Li family has the blood of fox demons, and the Yao family has the blood of great witches. Some people are born with not only superior status but also superior blood? Zhang Yuelu made a very arrogant joke at that time: "Then we two ordinary people without blood will trample these people with blood under our feet and use them as stepping stones. Wouldn't we rather have the kind of immortals, Buddhas, lichs?"
Qian Daren smiled and said: "It just so happens that our Taoist sect will kill it completely this time. It will give you a good time. By the way, we will also wipe out these evil spirits and bring peace to Fenglinzhou."
Li Mingshan said: "We should build several demon-suppressing towers here, as they will definitely be overrun with demons."
"Do you think there will be beautiful banshees? They say there are eight million ghosts and gods. They can't all be green-faced and fanged, right? That would be too disappointing." Tang Yongshui said in a tacit tone of men, "I heard It is said that there is a monster called 'Shiranui' that can dance on the sea."
"How did I hear that 'Shiranui' is a surname?"
"I heard it's the name of a magic sword."
"After all, Fenglinzhou is a barbarian land with no culture. Just these few words are used back and forth. They are not only a surname, a sword, but also a demon. She must be a banshee."
"That must be very beautiful. I also heard that there is a kind of monster called Snow Girl, who has two heavens, one ice and one fire..."
As a woman, Lu Yuting couldn't stand it anymore: "You guys are pretty good, do you still look like a Taoist priest?"
A few men who got excited about chatting coughed a few times to cover up their embarrassment: "Let's just talk casually."
Qi Xuansu interrupted the conversation of several people: "We will talk about these words later. For now, it is better to find a place to avoid the wind and snow."
After saying that, Qi Xuansu pushed with both palms, creating a three-foot wall of air to block everyone. Although it could not completely cover the wind and snow, it was better than nothing.
Then Qi Xuansu jumped up, flew into the sky, and used the "Transparent Dharma Eyes" and "Qi Watching Technique" to overlook the mountains and forests.
Looking at this, Qi Xuansu really saw some clues. This mountain forest is indeed weird. He is a person who has traveled all over the country. He has seen quite a lot of mountains and rivers. He has even been to Beimang Mountain, but Beimang Mountain is not enough. There are thirty-two peaks, and there are various tombs hidden in them, ranging from emperors to princes. They are all large tombs, and there are more than 320 of them. Coupled with the contribution of the ancient pavilion soap road, this has created The gloomy air of Beimang Mountain fills the sky. But this place is just a mountain top at most, which is far inferior to the thirty-two peaks of Beimang Mountain. There are no barren tombs filled with gloomy energy. How can there be so much gloomy energy?
Qi Xuansu took out the compass given by Qiniang again. Although this compass was mainly used to find "Xuan Jade", it also had the function of a normal compass. I saw that the compass needle kept spinning and could not stop at all. This made Qi Xuansu regret a little. If he had known this, he might as well have taken the main road. Even if he encountered some ronin, ashigaru, or flag, it would be better than fighting a weird mountain. .
