The piping hot snake soup is really numbing and fragrant.
Especially in such a harsh environment, one can't help but feel a sense of survival from a desperate situation.
When Zheng Xiu found out that Ruchen was carrying him up Tianyin Mountain, he was stunned.
"You can actually carry me... up Tianyin Mountain?"
"Hey hey hey!"
Ruchen was always smiling while drinking the broth.
Looking at the dirty Ruchen, drinking snake meat soup and eating tender snake meat rolls, Zheng Xiu felt warm in his stomach.
Only then did Zheng Xiu notice that they were in a long and narrow cave.
The winding entrance to the cave just makes it impossible for wind and snow to enter.
There was a hole left in the place where he dug before. Zheng Xiu dug his hands into the snow and dug out another large piece.
At the bottom of the small pit dug by Zheng Xiu, a large dark red blood stain looked so dazzling in the pure white snow.
But Zheng Baimei's last use of "The Sword Intention of Returning to the Heaven and Earth" can be said to be a crushing level. If the Night Lord could do it, it would be ten times more terrifying if the Crow Raider had been ten times more terrifying, and if Zheng Xiu's Sword Intention of Returning to One was even weaker
Ten times, if he returns to the same situation as that day, Zheng Xiu will definitely die. Of course, there are not so many ifs in the world. All in all, Zheng Xiu has survived now.
Zheng Xiu, who couldn't laugh or cry, suddenly realized after a moment that Ru Chen was no longer a normal person. Maybe Zheng Xiu's frequent use of big moves along the way made Ru Chen look ordinary. Zheng Xiu had almost forgotten that Ru Chen was a natural stranger.
Ascetic] Stranger in the door!
After hearing about Ruchen's leg-smashing experience, Zheng Xiu was a little moved at first, but at the end of the story, he couldn't laugh or cry, and looked confused.
Logically speaking, it doesn't make sense.
"Brother! Don't worry!" Ruchen quickly lifted his bare feet and pointed at one of the wounds: "The little monk's feet have begun to grow flesh!"
"Go away! Stop talking nonsense! It's important to treat the injury!"
With a loud noise, the stone walls on both sides of the cave suddenly cracked, and a black shadow swept out from the depths of the cave with lightning speed, whipping up a nauseating and fishy wind.
The monk asked uncertainly: "Avalanche?"
It's frostbite!
There were even two dents on Ruchen's calves, where they were hit by something.
There seems to be something wrong with this!
He wondered how he could call Zhizhi's name.
"Do you have something to say?"
Boom!
Ruchen was still sitting quietly on the spot, with his legs crossed under his clothes, smiling and tapping the pot lid, eagerly waiting to eat.
"Childhood sweethearts."
Zheng Xiu laughed dumbly. Thinking of Zheng Erniang, Zheng Xiu's eyes showed a hint of warmth. This name instantly reminded Zheng Xiu of the feeling of home.
When Zheng Xiu thought of Feng Bei, Ruchen's words rang in his ears for no reason, five hundred and sixty-seven times, and he always felt weird.
Rules, media, restrictions, this theory is now understood by Zheng Xiu.
Somehow, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the shape of the cave looked like it had been drilled out by a snake.
After Ruchen settled Zheng Xiu here, he waited for Zheng Xiu to wake up and die.
"Don't fucking talk nonsense to me! Where are your feet! Don't hide them for me to see!"
Zheng Xiu had nothing to say.
This winding cave was bottomless. In addition to digging out a snake, Ruchen also found many clean branches in deeper places.
"...As long as you understand." Zheng Xiu closed his eyes.
"Brother! Stop! If you rub it any more, it will hurt the little monk to death!"
After finally crawling to the cave where they ate snake meat soup, Ruchen looked at the two scarred feet and knew how terrible frostbite was. There were no knives around him, so he wanted to knock off the two bad legs with a stone.
, save your life.
Seeing Ruchen like this, Zheng Xiu smiled and went out to dig in the snow.
Zheng Xiu immersed himself in eating hard, thinking about Ruchen's words.
The environment on the snow-capped mountains can be used as a natural ice cellar, so Zheng Xiu does not have to worry about the freshness of the food.
"Hehehe, brother is indeed very discerning. The young monk wants to ask, who is Zhizhi?"
He gulped down a bowl and his hunger eased a bit. After adding a second bowl, Zheng Xiu asked him what happened during his coma.
Zheng Xiu gave an ambiguous answer and told lies with his eyes open.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
By the way, the luck and scale of [Yizhan Fengbei] are respectively: Tiansha Lone Star and Beginning to Take Shape.
I never expected that such a fat and white snake could be raised in this cold and miserable place.
He looked at the visibly wriggling fresh flesh and blood on Ruchen's legs.
But Ruchen only knocked twice, and the pain became unbearable. He could not continue to be cruel, so he had to give up and decided to resign himself to his fate and do as he pleased.
"Let's go down the mountain!"
Looking up, the mirror-clear sky is like a light blue mirror, spotless and refreshing.
Ruchen patted his belly and burped. After he was satisfied, his face was filled with a happy smile of rebirth after a disaster.
Zheng Xiu stroked the scroll in his arms, and the rough surface slid across his fingertips. Zheng Xiu fell into deep thought.
Maybe Ruchen carried Zheng Xiu all the way up the mountain, self-mutilating himself, and unintentionally complied with the promotion rules of the [Ascetic Monk] path, causing Ruchen to further penetrate the path without knowing it.
A pair of bruised, swollen, bruised, and torn feet were exposed in front of Zheng Xiu.
"Brother, don't worry!" Ruchen said hurriedly: "Don't forget Fengbei's benefactor five hundred and sixty-seven times!"
In fact, after Zheng Xiu killed the raven-keeper with the "Zheng Baimei" sword and eliminated the threat of Ye Weiyang's raven, Ruchen didn't have to work so hard to climb up. But at that time, Zheng Xiu fell into a drowsiness, and Ruchen's mind was full of memories.
Before Zheng Xiu fell into coma, he would move his feet as soon as he got angry.
"Thirteen days."
Zheng Xiu took a breath. This abnormal bruise was obviously not a bruise caused by trauma.
Zheng Xiu stared at the dazzling bloodstains without blinking, as if he had lost his soul.
Zheng Xiu said angrily, but as soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Xiu glanced at where Ruchen's finger was pointing, and was instantly shocked!
On Ruchen's two calves, which looked like hideous wounds caused by blunt objects, traces of blood-red tender flesh were climbing towards the bruises at a speed visible to the naked eye. If Ruchen hadn't said so, Zheng Xiu would have thought it was something like this.
Chen's feet were rotten and infested with maggots.
After finishing the delicious pot of snake meat, the two felt that it was not enough, so Ruchen asked Zheng Xiu to scrape off another large piece and continue cooking.
Born alien, to some extent, different from human beings, comparable to monsters.
It was a white snake about two meters long, as thick as a forearm. A large piece of the snake's skin and flesh had been torn off, and the torn parts were being cooked in a pot.
Zheng Xiu dragged his tired body out of the cave.
After he had a full stomach, he planned to follow the old monk's instructions and enter the ghostly scroll to rescue Feng Bei.
It doesn't make sense.
Zheng Xiu looked serious. He knew how terrible frostbite was. Ruchen's feet obviously didn't turn purple like this in a day or two. If it dragged on any longer, not only would the feet not be saved, but the person might even be killed.
Ruchen nodded vigorously: "I see, the young monk finally understands why Brother Zheng insisted on saving Fengbei Donor regardless of life and death. Brother Zheng is indeed true-hearted, and he is deeply, deeply, and passionately devoted to Fengbei Donor..."
Without saying a word, Zheng Xiu prepared to carry Ruchen down the mountain and seek treatment from a famous doctor.
hiss--
After cooking another pot, blisters began to form at the bottom of the pot. While waiting for the meal to start, Ruchen looked left and right, twirling his short-haired head up and down, glancing at the macho man from time to time, but he hesitated to speak.
.
When Zheng Xiu asked Ruchen how he dug up this snake, Ruchen said that he was very hungry yesterday and had finished eating the dry food for two people, so he walked into the cave and saw a snake head buried in the soil.
Inside, he dug it out, and before the hibernating snake woke up, he cut off seven inches of the snake with one slap.
Zheng Xiu listened to Ruchen talking about how he "picked up leaks" with excitement, and secretly thought in his heart that it seems that there really is such a thing as "luck" in the dark. One of the four parts of the human soul is "luck", and Zheng Xiu had something in his mind about [Inn
】It has a description about "luck" and "scale".
"Same as above."
Recalling the battle with the Crow Raider, Zheng Xiu vaguely realized that the Night Lord must have some kind of restrictions and could not do anything casually, otherwise he would not send out the Crow Raider.
Soon the second pot was finished with the efforts of the two of them.
"Brother Zheng, you slept for thirteen full days and nights."
Two red vertical pupils approached at high speed in the darkness, like a speeding truck.
"Wait a minute." Zheng Xiu interrupted Ruchen, frowned and said, "What's wrong with Guan Fengbei?"
"I see, eldest brother is indeed eldest brother. What about Lily? You also shouted seven times."
"Brother, you don't know something," Ruchen said with a rare hint of joking on his face, "You called Fengbei's benefactor's name a full 567 times."
Seeing the macho man addicted to sex, Ruchen wailed and begged for mercy.
Zheng Xiu looked straight at the winding and twisted cave, which was bottomless.
Did you work hard to dig it?
The wind was howling outside, and the two of them were gnawing on snake meat in the cave.
Recalling the horror of the crow-keeper, Zheng Xiu was still frightened. The monster had become neither human nor bird, making it difficult for Zheng Xiu to imagine that "it" had once been a thaumaturge.
This made Zheng Xiu even more convinced that he was exhausted. He was already in a fugue while driving due to fatigue, and since he had not eaten or drank for thirteen days, it was good to be alive.
An unexpected surprise.
Seeing that Ruchen was covering up, Zheng Xiu was not polite and glared angrily. He directly opened the hem of Ruchen's clothes and pushed Ruchen to the ground.
Before he could die, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his two necrotic legs had grown flesh again yesterday. He exclaimed happily that his frozen feet could actually grow flesh. Fortunately, he didn't break them because he was afraid of pain.
"What about Pingping?" Ruchen suddenly realized, and couldn't help but ask: "Brother, you called me this name seven times."
"A confidante. Ahem, another one."
Although his stomach was full, he could still hold a little more.
suddenly.
On the eighth day of climbing, his feet were no longer human-shaped and were frozen.
Ruchen was stunned, raised an index finger and hissed: "Brother Zheng, please keep your voice down, don't cause an avalanche."
This situation is not difficult to understand.
Zheng Xiu was stunned, with a look of disbelief on his face: "Why did I call Feng Bei more than five hundred times for no reason?"
After adding [Inn Station Ascetic] to the Heart Prison, Zheng Xiu was busy dealing with Ye Weiyang and never took the time to study the monk's inn description. He suspected that the monk's luck was not bad.
Is this how people grow flesh?
Zheng Xiu rushed into the cave with a ferocious expression and shouted to Ruchen: "Where are your feet!"
There is no shortage of water, just go outside and dig a handful of snow and boil it.
Zheng Xiu felt that it was not full enough, so he tore off a few more kilograms of snake meat and prepared for the third pot.
He vaguely remembered that after Zheng Baimei's "death", when he wandered again, the post he chose was [Station Executioner] instead of [Station Ascetic]. This shows that Feng Bei is still alive.
why?
He found failure.
Drinking snake soup and eating snake meat, Zheng Xiu felt that the accumulated fatigue in his body was quickly dissipating and his physical fitness was recovering.
Zheng Xiu looked down, and the earth was no longer visible. What Zheng Xiu could see was a vast sea of white clouds that extended to the end of his field of vision.
While the two were "playing" and eating two pots of snake meat, the third pot had not yet started cooking and the smell of snake meat was still lingering in the whole cave.
Ruchen noticed there was no sound outside and asked worriedly.
Zheng Xiu looked at Ruchen's restless posture and couldn't help but ask.
But...is there such a big snake in the world?
Something soon answered Zheng Xiu's doubts.
Ruchen shouted desperately not to.
"Fart! How can you grow flesh when you're frostbitten? Do you think your flesh is your hair, can't it just grow as long as you want?"
Top quality ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods.
Zheng Xiu encountered this situation for the first time, but he didn't panic. The fact that the incarnation is living well now means that the original body is also living well.
"This snake is really fat."
It's a miracle that no one on the main body has starved to death.
No wonder Ye Weiyang's Shangxian Si kept calling Feng Bei a monster.
But after a moment of nervousness, Zheng Xiu remembered that Ruchen had lost his memory and that he might not even have heard of the name "The Richest Man Zheng Xiu". He secretly said that he was too nervous and worried about exposing his body hidden behind his incarnation and exposing his chicken feet.
Zheng Xiu was puzzled.
Anyway, there is a [Station Ascetic] here, and Zheng Xiu was just trying to cancel the fugue state and return to his true body.
Zheng Xiu counted the days on his fingers.
Wait a moment.
But Zheng Xiu is so anxious now that he can't care about so much. He wants to save Feng Bei, but he can't involve the monk.
It's a... super giant snake!
"Go quickly!"
Zheng Xiu wouldn't say anything after climbing all the way, and the people were there. This place was at the top of the mountain, and if Ye Weiyang wanted to pursue him, he had to cross the natural chasm of Tianyin Mountain first, which was very rare. In other words, it was very safe here.
There was a white-skinned snake corpse lying vaguely in the dim cave. Zheng Xiu was also startled when he saw the size of the snake's body.
Ruchen spread his hands with an innocent look on his face: "Now we have to ask what big brother is thinking. How can the young monk know?"
Monk, what did you just say?
Ruchen rebelled against an army.
Although he was a little worried about the Imperial City, Zheng Xiu realized after thinking about it that although his house was not an iron wall, it was not something that just a few cats could break through.
Ruchen laughed and said, "My eldest brother called this name five times when he was sleeping."
The dark red in the white snow stung Zheng Xiu's eyes.
In Zheng Xiu's astonished eyes, Ruchen rubbed his head and embarrassedly talked about how his feet grew back.
"Then... where is Er Niang? Big Brother, you called Er Niang seventy-eight times. Could it be that it's Big Brother's...?" Ruchen's eyes sparkled.
Zheng Xiu carefully inspected Ruchen's legs, and found that under the rotten flesh on Ruchen's surface, new flesh was secretly growing. He rubbed it hard, and the rotten skin and flesh fell off like tofu dregs. Every time he rubbed, a layer fell off, and a layer of flesh fell off.
Rubbing another layer off.
He carried Zheng Xiu on his back for thirteen days and nights, and his boots were worn out by the rugged mountain road. He simply continued climbing barefoot.
The sight of the thin line between heaven and earth made Zheng Xiu pause for a moment while digging out the snow. He was confused and muttered: "How on earth did the monk carry me up here? I should say that he is indeed... a natural stranger. Is he really that?"
Don’t underestimate him.”
Zheng Xiu was stunned for a moment and then said with a solemn expression: "Zhizhi? How do you know this person?"
Maybe it's excessive fatigue.
My eyes suddenly opened up.
The monk and the macho man looked at each other.
He immediately thought of the living dead Situ Yong, who was known as a miracle doctor.
Zheng Xiu was shocked, and the snow cube in his hand fell to his feet with a clatter.
"Where's Bobo? Brother Zheng called out nine times. More than before. I guess he's thinking about it a lot."
A terrible vibration suddenly came from the depths of the cave, causing Zheng Xiu to stop what he was doing.
Zheng Xiu glanced deep into the cave.
"A... confidante."
The reason why Ruchen hid his legs from Zheng Xiu was that he didn't want Zheng Xiu to worry, and he felt that he didn't do the heroic feat of breaking a leg because he was afraid of pain. He felt embarrassed and was too embarrassed to bring it up.
Zheng Xiu's expression changed, and he immediately grabbed Ruchen's legs and rushed out.
The next second.
Opening the snake's mouth, it swallowed everything in the cave, including Zheng Xiu, Ruchen, hot pot of snake meat, fire piles, and scrolls.
