The two looked at each other clearly and stopped the topic in a tacit understanding.
Li Ang stepped forward, came to the edge of the ice, and used his telekinesis to pull the two girls up from the river, "How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"
The girls folded their hands in front of themselves, their lips turned purple, and they trembled: "It's so...cold."
"Take this."
Li Ang took out two warming charms from the charm plate and handed them over, "Also, don't take off your knee coverings."
He turned to look at He Fanshuang, "What about you?"
He Fanshuang's whole body was immersed in the cold river water just now, soaked from head to toe.
"I have it myself."
He Fanshuang took out a few warming charms from his charm plate and stuck them on his wet clothes, and a warm mist immediately appeared around him.
Like Xiao Long Bao just out of the cage.
Li Ang hesitated and said: "Uh... why don't you wring out your clothes first? You might catch a cold if you do that."
He Fanshuang's whole body was shrouded in mist, and he said calmly: "I'm in good health, it's okay, Ah Xi——"
She closed her eyes suddenly and sneezed, and transparent snot flew out and hung under her nose.
Silence.
Li Ang looked at the snot hanging under his knees, hesitated for a while, and asked: "Is it really okay..."
He Fanshuang forced herself to calm down, raised her hand and wiped her nose, as if nothing happened, "It's okay, Ah Ji——"
This time the sneeze was louder, and the knee-covering covering her head almost flew up. Li Ang quickly stretched out his hand to hold the red cloth of the knee-covering to prevent it from floating away.
"Stand still."
Li Ang shook his head helplessly, circulated his Qi sea, and released his mind power.
He Fanshuang stood there obediently, letting Li Ang grasp the corners of her clothes and wring them dry.
Wow-----
After wringing out the moisture from the clothes, the effect of the Warming Talisman became much more obvious. Li Ang helped He Fanshuang wring out his hair, then applied a Warming Talisman, and then did the same thing to himself.
"Hiss."
He rubbed his cold arms, looked at the dark upper reaches of the river, and muttered: "These paper figures were originally meant to take you to the depths of the dark river."
He Fanshuang squinted her eyes and whispered: "What's in there?"
"I don't know,"
Li Ang shook his head, "Forget it, being too curious is not a good thing. Let's get back to the ground quickly."
As the saying goes, with great ability comes great responsibility,
Li Ang had just been robbed of three years of his life by the Book of All Spirits, and there was still a parasite in his body that could lose control at any time. He didn't want to risk his life at all.
"Follow me, the exit is over here."
He took He Fanshuang and three others to the drilling site downstream of the glacier. Due to soil collapse, many parts of the passage have been blocked.
He Fanshuang used the Soil Melting Talisman to melt the soil above. Li Ang released his mental power, dug upwards, and wrapped his mental thread around the other two girls, leading them all the way up.
Digging upwards is much more troublesome than drilling downwards. It took Li Ang about half an hour to crawl out of the ground.
"You..."
Pei Jing looked at Li Ang, who was covered in dirt, in shock, "What did you do?"
"A long story is short, but a long story is long."
It was too troublesome to explain, so Li Ang shook his head, patted the dirt on his body, and pulled He Fanshuang and the others up from the ground.
The sky is getting brighter, and a ray of morning light passes through the canopy of the trees, illuminating the dense forest.
The knee-shields worn by He Fanshuang and the others burned on their own the moment they came into contact with the sun, forming a temperatureless flame that was instantly annihilated into ashes.
The curse ends,
Two girls with tears streaming down their faces wiped the dust off their faces and threw themselves into the arms of their parents.
Li Ang boarded the carriage, found the medical bag he carried with him in the compartment, poured some iodine on He Fanshuang's palm wound, and wrapped three circles of gauze on it.
"If anyone asks later,"
Li Ang reminded in a low voice: "Just say that this wound was cut by the thread."
"Yeah."
He Fanshuang nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said softly: "You were underground before and reminded me not to take off my knee-coverings. Do you know that the red knee-covering cloth will burn on its own in the sun?"
"This..."
Li Ang didn't want to, and couldn't tell He Fanshuang the information about the Book of All Souls, so he had to say: "It's just a wild guess. Well, I can't say it's completely a wild guess.
I have seen stories from the pre-Sui Dynasty in banned books.
A scholar went to Chang'an to take the imperial examination. He encountered a heavy rain on the way, so he moved into a wealthy family and made a private life-long contract with his daughter-in-law.
As a result, the scholar failed the imperial examination. After leaving Chang'an in frustration, he was still warmly entertained by the family, who claimed that they wanted to recruit him as their son-in-law.
The scholar said that he needed to get the consent of his parents first, but he couldn't bear the repeated requests of the girl's parents. In the end, he held the wedding locally with great fanfare and returned to his hometown with the wedding convoy.
After the motorcade drove some distance away, the bride, who was wearing a knee cap, told the groom that she had been dead for many years and was now a ghost.
If the groom can insist on returning to his hometown to hold the wedding and still not look at her,
Then she can return to the earth and become a living person.
Although the groom was shocked, he agreed to the request and never peeked at the bride.
Until the motorcade stopped in front of the groom's house, the groom got out of the car to greet the bride, and inadvertently glanced at the face beneath his knees.
As a result, the bride, who had been normal just now, instantly turned into a skeleton, and the rotten bones fell out of the car and scattered on the ground.
The groom also died of fear not long after."
In the pre-Sui Dynasty, such stories with no beginning or end were very common.
Some are really caused by mutations caused by aliens, while others are human tragedies caused by demon monks.
Tap tap tap.
The sound of horses' hooves trampling came from far away, and a group of Zhenfu soldiers rushed over.
Along with them came Cui Yixian, the flying sword that pierced the sky - Academy Swordsmanship Department Ye Cui Yixian also came to the scene.
"You..."
Cui Yixian fell from the sky and landed in front of the carriage.
He glanced at the disgraced Li Ang and said complicatedly: "Another mutation?"
"Yeah."
Li Ang nodded helplessly, picked up three paper geese from the ground, handed them to Cui Yixian, and briefly introduced what happened.
He Fanshuang, Pei Jing, Sun Xinzhi and others supplemented from the side.
"..."
After Cui Yixian listened to the statement, he closed his eyes and thought for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes and said: "Where is the tunnel?"
"Over there at the back of the car."
Li Ang pointed to the direction of the tunnel and said: "There is still a dim light strip I left behind in the underground river. At that time, the three paper figures were heading upstream. I suspect that there is something deeper in the underground river."
"Okay. You guys wait here for a while."
Cui Yixian tapped the scabbard, transformed into sword light, and fell into the tunnel.
Pei Jing immediately turned her head and said coldly to Sun Xinzhi: "Judge Sun, when I return to Chang'an, I will report it to the Zhenfu Department and explain what you just did."
"Pei Silang, please."
There was no trace of panic on Sun Xinzhi's face. He spread his hands and said calmly: "No matter what judgment the superiors of the Zhenfu Division make, I will humbly accept it."
