Han Zhang still took Xie Zhe and Jiao Mo to Wanren Mountain to look for his long-lost family.
The journey was barely smooth, without too many twists and turns. They took shortcuts where they could take spiritual veins, and finally arrived at the foot of the mountains. Han Sheng originally thought that he had been away for too long and could no longer remember.
How to find his family? He even greeted his friends, but he might hesitate awkwardly in some places.
"Looking at you like this... we couldn't have gotten lost in the snowy mountains, right?" Xie Zhe looked at him suspiciously.
"That won't happen, believe me."
"Uh, do we need to bring some warm clothes?" Jiao Mo looked even more excited than Han Zhang, "I heard that there is snow on those very high mountains because they are too cold. I have never climbed them before.
Such a high mountain..."
Han Chang hurriedly waved his hands and said with a smile: "No need. The place where my sister and grandma live temporarily is not too high. Although there is snow there, it is just because of the spiritual field and it is not that cold. But go up further.
If you climb too fast or follow your spiritual veins, you will easily get a special disease. The local people call it miasma disease."
Neither Xie Zhe nor Jiao Mo understood.
"Isn't miasma... only generated in places like woods or swamps? Can miasma also occur in high mountains with nothing?"
"Actually, this disease is not caused by miasma. It's just that a long time ago, people didn't know why they suffered from this disease. They thought it was because there was some bad smell there. In fact, the air in the mountains is thin. If you walk too fast, your health will be affected.
It is difficult to adapt. At that time, people will feel dizzy, nauseous, and even have more serious consequences. Sometimes people will have similar symptoms after breathing miasma, so they call this reaction miasma. Of course,
I’m too lazy to change my tune now.”
Jiao Mo raised his eyebrows and said with some surprise: "So, we have a similar situation underwater. If you swim too fast into the depths of the water, you will feel depressed, and in severe cases, you may even vomit blood. We don't care.
This is called bathyscaphe. I’ve also heard that humans can get the disease if they swim too fast while diving, but I don’t know what it is specifically.”
"Yes. People can travel thousands of miles a day with horses, but if there is a large difference in height, problems will arise."
Xie Zhe explained this. Han Chang suddenly turned his head and said to him with a smile:
"Lao Xie, let me test you. What is the disease called when you go from a high place to a low place in an instant on land?"
Xie Zhe was startled and thought seriously.
"This, um...is there such a disease? Maybe it's because I'm ignorant..."
"That's called falling to death."
After saying that, Han Zhang walked away. Jiao Mo covered his mouth and let out a giggle. Xie Zhe reacted and glared at him from behind. However, Han Zhang, who was striding like a meteor, could not be seen.
However, although Han Chang had made sufficient psychological preparation for them, when he actually came back to the mountains, he walked extremely comfortably. Those memories from more than ten years ago were reawakened in his mind, and he was like a fish swimming in the water.
The fish walked very fast and smoothly. The two people behind him followed him many times.
He couldn't follow his footsteps. He was so happy, as if every tree, every grass, every stone, and even every snowflake here was in the same position as before, without moving at all. This kind of joy continued to bring him
More energy, completely ignoring the panting two people behind him.
"Hanshang!"
Xie Zhe shouted behind him.
"What's wrong?"
He turned his head and looked at the two of them innocently, only to see that they were out of breath. Jiao Mo held his knees and said with a wry smile that he had only been so nervous when he encountered war and chaos in all his years on the shore.
Han Chang said apologetically:
"Oh, I'm so sorry. I can't control myself when I think about getting home."
"Are you asking us to be mentally prepared first, and then give us a surprise like this?" Xie Zhe didn't know whether he was being sarcastic or serious.
However, Han Zhang did take them a little slower on the road afterwards. After passing through two spiritual veins in succession, they found that the surrounding scenery had changed significantly. At first, there was lush vegetation, but when they reached the plateau, the trees were only low.
shrubs, and the distribution is very scattered. After coming out of the spiritual vein, everything becomes barren, even the turf
There are patches here and there. Most of the places are covered with dark rocks, and there are a few thick meadows, which should be where the soil accumulates. When you come out again, there are mottled snow everywhere, almost visible.
There was nothing green. Then, the two of them walked slowly with Han Shang until the three of them completely entered a world of white.
"Remember to roll your eyes, rub your eyes, look at the sky and so on." Han Chang said, "If necessary, close your eyes for a while. But don't blame me for not reminding you, there are many people who are blinded by the overwhelming white snow.
.”
Needless to say, the two of them already felt some pain in their eyes along the way.
Until they came to an open area, it was already approaching dusk, but the sky had not yet turned yellow. Han Chang looked around in the snow with some confusion, and stood still.
"Is your sister moving with her grandma?"
Xie Zhe didn't deliberately pour cold water on him, he was genuinely worried about this issue.
"No. If the place changes, she will definitely tell me in the letter."
"You brother and sister haven't contacted each other for ten years. You left Zanglanhai, and of course she didn't know where to write to you."
"..."
Han Zhang was vaguely worried, and what Xie Zhe said was true. Jiao Mo quickly comforted him, saying there was no need to worry, let’s look around in this area first. So the three of them wandered around here like headless flies. Han Zhang had to admit it.
, the higher he went up the mountain, the stranger it became to him. Because there were fewer reference points, the increased snow also made his eyes tired.
The sky is really starting to turn warm, and the sun is about to set. If things don't go well, they may have to spend the night here in the open air. Although it's not too cold here, it will be quite chilly after dark. Han Chang feels a little sorry, maybe he
We should bring them here earlier to increase our chances of success.
Three people are standing nearby. Their footprints have reappeared on the ground more than once. No matter how they look for them, they just go around in circles.
At this moment, Han Zhang suddenly felt something. He suddenly raised his hand and rubbed the back of his hand against Xie Zhe's face. The latter was startled and thought he was suddenly going to slap him. There was a soft "bang" sound.
Han Chang held a round snowball firmly in his hand. If he hadn't reacted quickly, Xie Zhe might have been hit in the face.
"What's going on?!"
Before Han Chang had time to answer him, he saw a figure rushing towards him in the distance. The figure was dressed in white and almost blended into the snow. Fortunately, the setting sun stretched her shadow very long.
"elder brother!!"
The white shadow suddenly fell on Han Zhang. He took a few steps back, failed to hold his arms firmly, and fell to the ground. Xie Zhe and Jiao Mo quickly got out of the way, and saw a girl in white clothes and white hair pressing on him.
There is a big fluffy tail wagging behind him.
"You're back, brother!"
"...Help! You get up first -"
Seeing Han Zhang's resistance, the girl with fox ears realized something and jumped up quickly. Xie Zhe stretched out his hand to pull him up, and Jiao Mo slowly helped him up from behind.
"Slow down, slow down, slow down... my waist is about to break, it hurts me so much!"
Han Chang bared his teeth. The girl next to him put her hands on her hips angrily and asked:
"What's the matter with you? Your health has gotten worse and worse over the years. You used to be able to catch me every time."
"Your brother is old and his physical strength is not what he used to be."
Han Chang sat up slowly and looked helplessly at the lively girl. But after a while, he started laughing.
"Ask Ying, you've grown taller." He reached out and rubbed the girl's head.
"What are you talking nonsense about? I stopped growing taller more than thirty years ago."
Han Chang stood up and was stunned for a while. He realized that in his subconscious, Wenying and Ye Lingyu were the same height. In fact, Lingyu was shorter than her.
"Oh...it seems that I have been away from home for too long and forgot."
"Why have you forgotten your own sister?"
"No, no... it's just, uh, it's been too long." Han Chang tugged at the hem of his clothes in embarrassment, and suddenly remembered something, "By the way! These two are friends I met in the world of martial arts. This is Xie Zhe, called
He is just A Zhe; this is Jiao Mo, so he can be considered...well, he can be considered a relative of our monsters."
The white fox named Wenying circled around them twice, then came up and sniffed them up and down. Xie Zhe felt a little uncomfortable, took an awkward step back, and saluted. He smiled brightly and bowed slightly naturally.
"Nice to meet you."
"Hello. I'm sorry. I was so happy that I got a little carried away and lost my etiquette."
"No, no."
"By the way, ask Yingying," Han Chang patted her shoulder lightly, "Where is home? We searched here for a long time and couldn't find it. Have you moved with grandma? Is there anything on this snow-capped mountain?
Danger?"
"Danger? No. We haven't moved either. Well, it's over there."
She pointed in a direction, and there was indeed a white hut there. The setting sun made it covered with a layer of golden gauze, and it was extremely beautiful. Seeing such a lovely house in a place like this, anyone would want to stay there for one night.
"The house made of snow... is so special." Jiao Mo couldn't help but sigh. Even Xie Zhe found it strange.
"Well, it's maintained by spiritual power. It's still like this after all these years... But why didn't we see it just now?"
As for Han Shang's question, Wenying thought about it for a while and then suddenly realized it.
"Ah, I remembered it. The snowy mountains have been very lively recently, and many people have come here. Now there is a guest here, who is Liudao Impermanence. She is in a low mood and doesn't want others to disturb her, so I set up blinders around to prevent anyone from misunderstanding.
Enter this place."
"..."
Han Chang didn't say anything, but Xie Zhe poked him with his elbow.
"Why can't you even see your sister's spells?"
"Ahem." Han Chang slapped his arm away and coughed lightly, "You said the Six Paths are impermanent? Who is it?"
"I don't know her, but she's a nice person. Come on, let me introduce you to her. Hey, wait a minute..."
Wenying was about to pull their arms when she suddenly changed her mind. She asked Hanshang and said:
"Should we see grandma first?"
"Grandma still doesn't like living in the house?"
"Well, I still don't want to. She lives in the same place, in that cave."
"Um……"
Han Chang thought for a while, nodded slightly, and finally made a decision. The two friends behind him looked at him, wanting to hear his thoughts.
"Let's see. I've been away from home for a long time, so I have to visit the old man first. But since the Six Paths of Impermanence are here, why don't you go and see the situation first. I'll tell you after I finish explaining to grandma."
