Jun Aoyan quickened his pace, making a crunching sound on the ice, which made people nervous.
"Yes, we are lucky." Bai Ya stood up, rubbed his frozen hands, and shrugged, "It's not too far away from death."
"How did you get down?"
Before Bai Ya could ask, Qi Huan intervened first. Besides Liu Shenghan, there seemed to be another person behind Aoyan. Judging from the current situation, that person would not be harmful to them. Otherwise, Bai Ya might have smoked it long ago.
Killed someone with a knife.
"We are also very lucky." Shenghan said, taking a step to the side to get out of sight of the unidentified shadow, "There is a kind person who is willing to help us."
Bai Ya looked sideways and muttered: "A kindhearted person?"
The "good Samaritan" in Shenghan's mouth clearly made him detect a hint of evil. This aura was something he had never noticed before. Either the owner of this aura was far away from them before, but why did he happen to meet him this time?
?Either, this "person" had hidden the evil spirit before, and now he deliberately released it as a test. It seems that this monster is very smart.
Under the very shallow light, they saw the outline of each other. She was a woman, tall and tall, somewhere between proud face and cold voice. She had black hair tied up in a double snail, with the longer part hanging loose.
The hairpin doesn't look luxurious or cheap, and her long maroon dress doesn't look cheap at first glance. She doesn't look like a monster who has been living in the mountains for a long time, maybe she comes from somewhere else.
"Hello."
She leaned forward slightly and bowed. Qi Huan returned the bow with some confusion. Only Bai Ya and Shuang Yuejun remained indifferent.
"Who are you?"
"Can you be more polite?" Aoyan was a little angry, "If it weren't for her, we wouldn't even be able to collect your body in time."
Bai Ya opened his mouth to say something again, but was too lazy to defend himself, so he shut up. Lord Shuangyue took two steps forward, walked up to the banshee, and looked her up and down.
"Why are you here?"
Several people suddenly fell silent. It seemed that Lord Shuangyue had met her before. For some reason, this made people feel more reassured. Although Lord Shuangyue himself often made them find it difficult to understand, the people he knew were, after all,
They are much more reliable than him.
"Have you heard anything about the death of the divine bird?"
"Really?" Mr. Shuangyue's reaction was not very big, "I don't think I have heard of it."
After saying that, he turned to look at the others. I wonder if he had a "guilty conscience", and the two girls who were being helped did not dare to speak. Regardless of whether Mr. Shuangyue knew who did it, he would not identify it on the spot, right?
Isn't this woman... a demon bird? If Bai Ya's judgment is correct, she should be a bird demon like a swan goose.
"The matter has come to this, I have to go back there. As far as human beings are concerned... Lord Garuda's men can be regarded as doing many evil things. There should be no reaction at the moment, but once they realize that they are no longer bound by the law, I am innocent
My compatriots will be implicated. I have to go back quickly."
It seems that she cares more about the safety of her own kind than the life and death of the bird god. This is much easier to handle.
"I see." Shuangyue Lord nodded, "But... Shiyue Mountain is not the only way for you to pass, right?"
"Indeed." The demon bird smiled, "But I know there are many useful herbs here. I called my friends to come and want to bring some back. They may be useful."
She pointed at the sky. Several people raised their heads and could hardly see anything. The sky was too far away, like a cracked white hole with only color and no light. Maybe if they were more sharp-eyed, they could still see.
I saw several birds circling.
"Uh, I didn't mean to disturb your reminiscing about old times." Qi Huan clapped his hands to draw everyone's attention to him, "It's just... why don't you take a look at what we found first?"
The demon bird girl leaned down and stared at the white bones carefully for a while.
"It's so pitiful," she said, "He's still a child."
"Could it be the little prince of Gechen Kingdom?" Aoyan asked, "Don't we have that..."
"Don't think about it." Bai Ya knew that she was going to talk about the soul-returning incense, "Of course, the task comes first. Besides, many people have disappeared on Shiyue Mountain. How can we guarantee that this is the child? Don't lose your wife.
And he lost his troops."
"Young Master Bai is right."
Even Liu Shenghan also agreed, and Aoyan shook his head helplessly. The light had dimmed a lot at some point, and the fireflies were gone. It seemed that the girl had left since she came. Could it be that she is a natural enemy of birds?
"It's better not to waste time here. Go in the morning and go to the other side of the mountain."
"But……"
"They didn't let us go find the young prince, they just said he was the consort, didn't they?"
Qi Huan wanted to say something else, but was interrupted mercilessly by Bai Ya. Food
"But it's so pitiful that he's here."
"Then you dig him out, take him up, and bury him properly. There are countless remains of missing people in this mountain, and you also did a good deed."
"Uh, I'll just tell you."
The wild goose bird tilted its head, seeming to be somewhat interested in this topic.
"You mean Shenyin?"
"Ah, exactly."
"Humans should all think that they were all eaten by tengu, right?"
"Maybe. If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten that there is a Tengu here." Qi Huan looked around subconsciously.
"A long time ago, there was no such undercurrent at the foot of this mountain. I have been here many times. It was not until Master Kinnara put this evil dog into a deep sleep that this undercurrent was introduced. The Tengu was suppressed deeper than here.
The place is under the river. But this river is said to be connected to the Yellow Spring, do you believe it?"
"No, I don't believe it..."
"Hahaha, I think it's a joke. But it's not a good thing to stay here. The mountain stream will steal people's spiritual power. Maybe there are more corpses under the ice. It's better for you to leave as soon as possible. I can let you
My partner will help you."
Qi Huan sighed with emotion: "Oh, you are really a kind-hearted person." After saying that, Bai Ya glanced at him contemptuously for some reason.
"It's okay. Just think that my motives are not pure. Only by doing more good deeds and forming more good relationships will it be helpful to your cultivation."
"Huh? What are you practicing?"
"Adult's spell." Lord Shuangyue said casually.
Everyone else suddenly moved their eyes from the bones to Miss Yan. It is indeed strange that most monsters are pursuing more powerful magic. For this reason, they do not hesitate to kill each other, hunt and devour their own kind, humans. Monsters who want to become human?
I heard about it once.
"Huh? How could you..."
"Everyone has his own ambitions."
In the darkness, she smiled softly and said nothing more.
Before she and other geese help them return, there is one more important thing. Using Liu Shenghan's compass, they also want to try to find the lost wood carving. Approximately when they return to the place where Bai Ya and Qi Huan "landed", the compass has
There was a reaction. There were still a few wild geese guarding here, maybe they were the ones that sent Aoyan and the others down.
They searched everywhere but couldn't find it. This left only one possibility: the wooden sculpture had been frozen in the water.
They lowered their heads and looked at the turbid ice, not knowing what to do. If all the ice was broken, not only would there be no place to stand, but they would not know where the wooden sculptures would go. Furthermore, if they woke up and sank under the underground river,
Something about sleep...
"Alas, isn't it just because of this thing that we ended up in such an embarrassing situation." Qi Huan shook his head unwillingly.
"That's why we don't make the same mistake again and again. It's not worthwhile to risk your life here for a thing that no one wants. We have done enough."
What Bai Ya said is true. You can't be too demanding on things you really can't do, not to mention that this is indeed an exceptional category. If they meet a noble person to help them, they are lucky.
As there were more people, a few geese were naturally not enough. They raised their necks one after another and made thin calls to the sky in the gap. The sound was not loud or harsh, and it was as direct as if they had a sense of direction.
It rushed straight up without colliding with the cliff, so there was no echo. Soon, the geese above seemed to feel the call of the same kind. In less than a quarter of an hour, the ice was covered with dense geese.
.
"We should..."
As soon as Jun Aoyan asked, Miss Yan whistled. All the geese flapped their wings, making them feel an irregular wind. Immediately afterwards, there was a special airflow surrounding them, gently blowing them.
Lifting it up lightly, Aoyan spent a lot of effort because her weapon was too heavy.
Several people rose higher and higher. When their feet left the ground, some geese flew below them, as if they were afraid that someone would not notice and fall. Shuangyue Jun and Liu Shenghan were calm and relaxed. Even Bai Ya
Inside, the bodies of the other three people felt stiff to varying degrees. They tensed up the muscles all over their bodies and were very nervous. After all, any terrestrial creature would feel uneasy in this posture where their feet could not touch the ground.
Where did that banshee bird go?
Qi Huan was looking around when he suddenly saw a figure breaking through the "clouds" in front of the wild geese. At some point, Miss Yan's arms turned into a pair of huge wings, flying upward flexibly, as if for the wild geese.
Lead the way.
This must be a very spectacular sight: first, a man with wings flew straight up from the mountain stream, unstoppable. Then, a flock of wild geese filed out of the valley in a mighty manner, with their chirping and flapping of wings intertwined.
Together, we will bring a kind of beauty to this barren mountain range.
Special vitality. Among them, a few humans seemed to have grown wings. They left the darkness with the wild geese and swooped down the other side of the mountain like a waterfall. The speed of the wild geese was so fast that everything on the ground
The scenery is all mixed together and blurred.
When they returned to the ground, everyone felt that their feet were soft, as if they were standing on cotton. The first thing everyone did when they landed was the same: to tidy up their hair, which was messed up like a bird's nest.
Miss Yan laughed at this for a long time. Then, she said goodbye to a few people briskly and left in a hurry. It was as if this important matter of saving people's lives was just a matter of effort for her.
Facing the setting sun, the black flock of geese disappeared and never returned.
