After spending a few days together, Qin Yun really fell in love with this human-like jade snow fox.
He has a generous and generous temperament, otherwise he would not have half sold and half given the green leaf grass he collected so hard to Qin Mingzhu. He has never attached much importance to external things.
So seeing the little fox's desire, Qin Yun would not be stingy.
Yo! Yo!
The Jasper Snow Fox was so happy that it almost jumped up. It stretched out its little head and opened its mouth to grab the Wolf King's inner elixir, and swallowed it with a grunt.
Swallowed it? Qin Yun was surprised.
Even the inner elixirs of low-level monsters cannot be swallowed directly. If you want to exert the effectiveness of the inner elixirs, they must be refined into elixirs.
Of course, this is for humans, while spiritual beasts and monsters may be another matter.
After swallowing the Wolf King's inner elixir, the Jasper Snow Fox curled up on the ground.
Its belly gradually expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, showing a painful expression. Its limbs were twitching in a way that made people look uncomfortable, and its long tail was swinging feebly.
Just when Qin Yun was worried about it, the little fox suddenly opened its mouth and spit out a mouthful of white mist.
This white mist with a strong icy aura spread instantly, completely covering its body, and the surrounding temperature dropped suddenly.
As time went by, the fog became thicker and thicker, and finally turned into an oval ice cube shaped like a large cocoon!
Through the solid ice, you can vaguely see the jasper snow fox wrapped inside.
It closed its eyes tightly and seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.
Qin Yun didn't know what happened to it, but it must be related to the Wolf King's inner elixir.
But his intuition told Qin Yun that the little fox was not in danger.
After thinking about it, Qin Yun lifted the ice cocoon with force and placed it in the corner of the room, carefully placing it for fear of melting the ice next to the fire.
The heavy snow fell and stopped, stopped and fell again, and time passed by silently.
The days in the mountains were lonely and cold, but Qin Yun's days were very fulfilling.
What he worried about didn't happen.
Qin Yun's diligent practice of the Fiery Heart Technique broke through to the fourth level and condensed seven true fires.
His level of strength has advanced to the peak of the second heaven, and he has opened twenty-seven meridians in his body, leaving only nine acupoints unopened before the third heaven.
During this period of time, Qin Yun did not continue to explore the world of Small Universe, but concentrated on practicing the Heart Technique and Thousand Miles of Divine Walking.
The first three levels of the Qi Refining Realm are the easiest to break through, and the subsequent levels are more difficult. If you don't complete the promotion and accumulation quickly in the early stage, your future achievements will be very limited.
Qin Yun's progress in cultivation is not very fast among the Qin family's disciples, but he has made steady progress without taking any pills, which is different from most people.
After that near-death battle, he deeply understood the huge gap between himself and the seventh and eighth heavenly warriors, and he became even more diligent in his cultivation.
Unknowingly, Qin Yun spent the New Year and his birthday in the heavy snow.
According to the customs of Cangmangjiuzhou, a man can hold an adult ceremony when he reaches the age of sixteen, and can officially marry a wife and have children to reproduce. He is considered a real man.
The coming-of-age ceremony is extremely important for a man, and a grand celebration is usually held, with relatives and friends invited to a party.
It's just that Qin Yun doesn't have many friends in Qianchao City, and he is an insignificant newcomer in the clan. Now he is guarding the mine in the mountains, and it is impossible to celebrate his coming of age. Come on, in more than half a month
In time, he can complete the mission of Dongshou Mine and return to Qianchao City.
On this day, Qin Yun was doing Qi Yun Gong in his room when he suddenly heard a crisp cracking sound coming from the corner of the room.
His heart moved, and he immediately stopped his work and stood up to check.
I saw that the ice cocoon, which had been placed in the corner and had not moved for a month, had cracks as dense as a spider web on its surface, and the sound of cracking ice cubes kept coming and going.
Is the little fox coming out? Qin Yun felt happy in his heart.
In the past month, he has been worried about this little guy, worrying whether it will be frozen inside and never wake up.
Snap!
The ice cocoon burst into pieces, and the broken ice immediately scattered all over the ground.
A white shadow jumped up like lightning and threw itself into Qin Yun's arms.
Surprisingly, it is the Jasper Snow Fox!
Although it stayed in the ice cocoon for a full month, it looked great, its size seemed to have gotten a little bigger, and its eyes became more lively and cute.
Qin Yun noticed that its originally emerald green eyes turned into ice blue, but there was a hint of green flashing in the depths of the pupils, making it even more beautiful.
The little fox rubbed its head affectionately, and Qin Yun couldn't help but reach out and caress it back and forth.
Unexpectedly, the little guy suddenly turned his head, opened his mouth and bit the back of Qin Yun's hand.
Qin Yun was not prepared at all, and his sharp teeth bit through his skin, and red blood immediately flowed out.
"ah!"
Qin Yun couldn't help but shrink his hand. The bite from the Jasper Snow Fox was not serious, but it didn't hurt at all. He was just surprised that this little guy would suddenly attack him.
However, the little fox immediately relaxed its mouth and stretched out its pink tongue to carefully lick the wound on the back of Qin Yun's hand, licking away all the blood stains.
Qin Yun could completely feel the trace of apology in its eyes.
It was just an accident! Qin Yun didn't take it to heart. Even domestic pets have wild natures, let alone wild spiritual beasts.
But the strange thing is that after this experience, he actually felt a flesh-and-blood connection with the little fox in his arms, and could sense its inner emotions.
It was not until later that Qin Yun realized how lucky he was.
Spiritual beasts like the Jasper Snow Fox are usually extremely difficult to tame and raise, especially those with spiritual intelligence that would rather die than succumb to being pets.
This jasper snow fox had just developed its spiritual intelligence. After meeting Qin Yun, it was treated kindly by Qin Yun and even gave it the Wolf King's inner elixir.
With the help of the Wolf King's inner elixir, the Jasper Snow Fox successfully completed a promotion, which made it more dependent and grateful towards Qin Yun, and willingly recognized Qin Yun as its master.
Using blood as a matchmaker, it bit the back of Qin Yun's hand to recognize its master. From then on, it would never leave Qin Yun and share life and death with him!
It is absolutely rare for a spiritual beast to take the initiative to recognize its owner. It was a coincidence and Qin Yun's kindness and generosity that led to the recognition of the Jade Snow Fox.
Of course, Qin Yun still doesn't know how lucky he is. He touched the little head of the jade snow fox, thought about it and said, "I'll give you a name, okay?"
Xiaoyao!
Qin Yun gave it this name because the little fox always calls out "yoyo", and the homophony of the word "yao" is also very nice.
The Jasper Snow Fox obviously also liked this name very much. It nodded vigorously and called out "yoyo" a few more times.
Qin Yun chuckled, feeling happy and peaceful in his heart. He couldn't help but pick up the little fox and kiss it on the forehead.
"Xiaoyao!" The sky comes much earlier than in the north. The thick snow gradually melts under the sunshine, and there are more creeks in the mountains and forests. The breath of the sky comes with the breeze to every corner of the mountain.
It's very cold here, and there's still unmelted frost in the cracks in the rocks. The mountain roads are slippery, so everyone must be very careful. If you're not careful, you may slip under the cliff. That will definitely lead to death.
land.
What!
Suddenly, a mountain goat jumped down from the mountain wall.
The pack horse walking at the front of the cavalry team was startled and suddenly stood up in shock.
The knight sitting on the horse reacted very quickly. He immediately clamped the horse's belly firmly with his legs and pulled the reins to force the pack horse down.
Whoosh!
An arrow shot out like lightning and hit the culprit's neck!
"Who?" the knight shouted loudly, drawing out his sword.
"It's me, Manager Wang, you are finally here!"
Lang Lang echoed, and a well-dressed young man appeared at the end of the mountain road holding a hunting bow.
The knight took a closer look and smiled: "Haha, it turns out it's you, you almost scared me to death!"
The handsomely dressed young man is naturally Qin Yun, and the knight on horseback is the steward of the foundry hall who brought Qin Yun to the black iron mine.
This middle-aged manager's surname is Wang. He is a rough and talkative person and has a good relationship with Qin Yun.
He brought the cavalry back to the black iron mine today, which means that Qin Yun's three-month winter guard mission has officially been completed.
Although Qin Yun can tolerate loneliness, he still feels very happy when his replacement appears.
Manager Wang felt a little more surprised.
For more than ten years, he has picked up and dropped off many of the Qin family's children who guarded the mines. Those children of the winter hunting mines had been alone in the mountains for several months, and were generally in poor condition. When the mission ended, they all lost their temper.
Some cried with joy, some cursed the sky and the earth, and some even collapsed to the ground feeling relieved, but I have never seen someone as calm and calm as Qin Yun.
There was still a joyful smile on his face, but he responded appropriately and calmly, as if he had only stayed in the mountains for three days instead of three months.
Manager Wang knew some of the reasons why Qin Yun was sent to the black iron mine. Although he didn't want to get into trouble with Qin Yun by being too close, he was still greatly impressed by Qin Yun's magnanimity.
This child is definitely not a thing in the pool!
It was precisely because of this idea that he became more and more polite to Qin Yun. The first thing he did when he arrived at the mine was to hand over the task.
"Manager Wang, a wooden house here was crushed by snow last month!"
After completing the task, Qin Yun explained to Manager Wang: "I saw that the pillars were hollowed out by termites, so I just cleaned them up. Look at this..."
"This is a trivial matter. I'll just ask someone to find another room!" Manager Wang didn't have the slightest suspicion. He waved his hand and said, "Qin Yun, let's go back to Qianchao City together tomorrow!"
