Chen Yunsheng realized that for this ordinary person, a hundred miles of mountain road was an extremely long distance. This hundred miles was enough to prevent people from extending their hunting range to the main peak of Shenli Peak.
The old man turned the fire on even brighter, rubbed his hands together and said, "When I was young, I was also a good hunter, but I didn't expect that I would be like a useless person when I got old. Time is not forgiving. By the way, young man, what did you just say?"
Woolen cloth?"
"We are going to the summit of Shenli Peak, do you have any suggestions?"
The old man said seriously: "Are you seriously not joking?"
"Of course." Chen Yunsheng did not lose his patience because of the old man's wordiness.
"The height of Shenli Peak is fifteen thousand feet, and the snow line is about one thousand feet. I can't imagine what it's like to be at the top of the fifteen thousand feet peak. The young man who is the best at climbing in the village just rolled down the mountain in piss at a height of three thousand feet.
Come on. You, a foreigner, say you want to go to the top of the mountain. You are either out of your mind or something." There was a hint of reproach in the old man's tone.
Chen Yunsheng realized that he had been used to dealing with monks for a long time, and had lost the perspective and awareness of talking to ordinary people. He tried to lower his thinking, "Old man, we are just going to walk around the Shenli Peak. If
You can climb as high as you can, and we won’t force it. We just want to know the story about this mountain and some conditions of the mountain.”
An old smile appeared on the old man's face, and he said: "A lot of people come to this peak to worship every year. I guess you are the same. I just want to advise you that worshiping is fine, just climb the mountain. There are dangerous things everywhere above the snow line of Shenli Peak.
.It is said that there is a kind of snow ape living between 3,000 feet and 5,000 feet. It has sharp fangs, strong teeth, cruelty, and the most obscene nature. Every year, women in nearby villages are snowed.
Take away."[
"There is a kind of beast called Hanchihu that lives between 5,000 feet and 8,000 feet. It is as big as an ox, can breathe ice breath, and is extremely difficult to deal with."
"Above eight thousand feet, that is the territory of the Ice Soul Beast. These kitten-like beasts are definitely no easier to deal with than any ferocious beast. It is said that this kind of beast can control ice and cast magical spells. Tsk tsk, it is very powerful."
"Further up there is the legendary thunder stone bird, which can summon lightning and flap its wings for hundreds of miles. The surrounding villagers have already worshiped this bird as a mythical beast."
"In addition, on the top of Shenli Peak, it is said that there is a mountain god guarding it. Legend has it that Shenli Peak is the gateway to the heaven. There is a great god who guards this place all year round. On the coldest night of every year, if the weather is clear, you can hear the sound of the mountain god.
The roar of a great god."
Chen Yunsheng nodded, but he always believed that what roared at night was a beast after all, not a god. Then there might be some strange beast on the top of the mountain.
The following conversation revolved around the life of the mountain people here, including daily necessities, daily necessities, and details. Chen Yunsheng listened quietly while the old man spoke in a long-winded way. Soon it was getting close to dusk.
There were footsteps outside the house, and a young man and a strong woman walked in. The old man went up to greet them and introduced Chen Yunsheng to the man and woman. The two immediately started chatting with Chen Yunsheng and Liu Xiaoshan, and their enthusiasm was no less than that of the old man.
This place is closed all year round and it is difficult to have visitors. Chen Yunsheng alleviated the claustrophobic feeling of this family of mountain residents. He briefly introduced the situation outside the mountain. For these people who may never go out of the mountain in their lives, those few words are often confusing.
It will make them think a lot.
The young man took out the freshest snow mountain pig he had hunted today, opened its intestines, took out the internal organs and roasted them on the iron grid. Although there was some fishy smell mixed in the smoke, Chen Yunsheng still accepted the other party's kindness.
Liu Xiaoshan frowned slightly and refused the offal, but chose a few pieces of light pork to eat.
Chen Yunsheng believes that although this pork does not look good in terms of appearance, it is extremely fragrant in the mouth. It also contains a light water spirit, which is very suitable for nourishing the body.
After having a barbecue, the family insisted on staying overnight with Chen Yunsheng, but he politely declined.
The old man opened his old eyes and said in surprise: "Is it possible that you have to travel in the middle of the night? There are many wild beasts in the mountains. They stay day and night, so it is very dangerous along the way."
Chen Yunsheng smiled and said: "We are all martial arts practitioners and are not afraid of wild beasts."
He glanced at Liu Xiaoshan, and the woman understood immediately and took out a cold iron dagger from Naxu Ring. This sword was made of cold iron and had been tempered hundreds of times. There was a faint cold air all over the body, and there was a faint faintness on the sword.
A layer of chrysanthemum pattern is exposed, which is a good magic weapon.[
Liu Xiaoshan pointed the edge of the dagger towards himself, handed the hilt to the old man, and said: "Old man, you see, we are all martial arts practitioners. I give this sword to you as a token of my gratitude for today."
The old man had never seen such an exquisite weapon. He took the broken sword and carefully stroked the gorgeous sword body. He couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "This object is a magic weapon. You two..."
When he raised his head, he only faced the empty door. Liu Xiaoshan and Chen Yunsheng had quietly left. The old man's son and daughter-in-law came up and said without awe: "These two strangers must be the legendary ones."
Monk."
…
Sitting at the head of Chuanyun Boat, the cold air tore Chen Yunsheng's hair, and Liu Xiaoshan cuddled next to him, like a well-behaved birdman.
"The Cloud Chuanzhou can only fly up to three thousand feet. If it flies any higher, it will be affected by the high-altitude air currents and become less safe. Your and my escape light will also be blown to pieces by the high-altitude wind."
"Then let's climb up. The distance is less than ten miles." Liu Xiaoshan said easily.
"Did you listen to what the old man said? There are probably many ferocious beasts on the mountain, and the things on the top of the mountain may not be so easy to deal with."
Liu Xiaoshan smiled and said: "You can be considered a great monk, but why do you talk like a little thief?"
Chen Yunsheng smiled bitterly and said: "The little thief can survive until now not because of his great ability, but because of God's favor and his own caution."
Liu Xiaoshan patted his chest and said, "I will protect you this time, so feel free to move forward."
Chen Yunsheng was not in the mood to listen to the woman's lofty words, but he noticed that the woman's two round and round jade balls, which were neither big nor small, were slightly shaken by her pat.
Noticing Chen Yunsheng's distraction, Liu Xiaoshan's face flushed. At this time, the stars were shining brightly in the sky. Although it was cold, there was a feeling of warmth.
A journey of one hundred miles is really nothing to a monk. Chuanyunzhou flew close to Shenli Peak in just a cup of tea. Although he had been mentally prepared, when he arrived, the huge and sturdy mountain peak was still there.
It gave them another round of shock.
The two tried their best to raise the Chuanyunzhou to the highest height. Finally, at a height of four thousand feet, they were unable to withstand the airflow pouring down from the top of the mountain, and stopped the flying boat on a gentle slope.
The two got off the boat and climbed up the mountain. There is no road here anymore. It took countless thousands of years to form a primeval forest like thick black spears rising straight into the sky. The trees in the forest are not dense, and you can vaguely see the trees above your head.
Under the starry sky, these tree trunks are black in color and have shriveled bark, as if they are dead.
This place is above the snow line, and the white snow covers the tree canopy and forest floor. The two of them used their own lightness to prevent themselves from falling into the unknown how many feet thick layer of snow.
The temperature was extremely cold, and Chen Yunsheng consciously used the body-protecting Qi to dispel the cold. He looked sideways at Liu Xiaoshan, but found that she was in a much better condition than he was.
The two of them jumped lightly in the forest, like two elves. They did not encounter any imaginary beasts along the way. It was as if those legendary beasts could not withstand the severe cold and found a place to rest in the lee of the wind.
Just when Chen Yunsheng thought that his previous worries were unnecessary, a blood-red light suddenly flashed in the dense forest ahead, like two bright lights in the dark night.
The two of them noticed the danger at the same time and hid behind two trees at the same time. Before they could react, a shrill ape call broke the silence of the long night.
A snow-white shadow came through the snow, setting off a layer of snow waves behind it. The white shadow was very fast, like a whirlwind. In a few breaths, it came behind the big tree where Chen Yunsheng was hiding, and lifted up a few inches.
His sharp claws tore through the air and clawed at Chen Yunsheng.
Chen Yunsheng felt that the evil wind was evil and jumped back quickly. The monster's claws grabbed onto the black giant tree. A sound like metal scraping came. Five white claw marks were exposed on the giant tree, and the snow on the crown of the tree rustled.
Falling.
Chen Yunsheng was secretly shocked. The force of the blow just now could be seen from the sound of breaking through the air, but the trees were only broken. It seemed that the year-round cold had made the wood of the trees here hard.
The white monster roared around the giant tree and pounced on Chen Yunsheng. At this time, Liu Xiaoshan took action, and a stream of black water turned into an oval due to its speed. Several blue spikes protruded from the water droplets, piercing the monster's ribs.
Down.
The speed of the water was extremely fast. The monster screamed and was hit towards a big tree. The monster's body hit the big tree with a loud noise.
But to their surprise, the monster swayed and got up again. Except for some loss of white fur under its ribs, not even the skin was broken.
Liu Xiaoshan was even more frightened than Chen Yunsheng. Only she knew the power of this mysterious water. It couldn't even break the beast's skin. It was only at this moment that she realized that this Shenli Peak was not a place of comfort.
The water droplets hung in the air, constantly changing shapes. The monster knew how powerful the two were, so it did not initiate an attack, but stopped there, panting heavily.
Chen Yunsheng looked at the monster carefully and saw that its body was about one to five feet tall. It was covered with long white hair and could walk upright. Its feet and hands were huge, and there were retractable claws between its fingers and feet.
Judging from the monster's appearance, it was quite humanoid, and it should be the snow ape mentioned by the father-in-law. He slowly released Qilin Slash, and under the orange-red light, the snow ape became even more uneasy, grinning and roaring at Chen Yunsheng
.
Liu Xiaoshan stretched out his hands slightly, and two water snakes floated towards the snow ape like ribbons. Seeing that the two people who were regarded as prey actually dared to attack, the ape roared and pounced on it again. The two water snakes quickly entangled it
, the water snake hardened instantly and imprisoned the snow ape.
