Chapter 668 Mystery in the Snow Mountains (Part 2)
Ayimu waved behind him, and soon someone threw a rickety figure to the ground.
Tuoba Huaisu saw the figure clearly and couldn't help shouting: "Master!"
Tuoba Huaisu's master, the old woman known as Zapata, was covered in wounds and was dying.
Ayimu kicked Zapata with his foot: "You were once my master, but you abandoned me like a waste, and then passed on the position of saint to your junior sister. Now, your life is in my hands.
,Have you ever thought that this day would happen?!"
When Tuoba Huaisu saw this, he wanted to run over.
Huayue grabbed her, looked around, and shook her head gently.
"These are all traitors from the Hidden Sect, and there are many good players among them. We alone have no chance of winning."
Huayue said while looking under the ice.
Ayimu humiliated Zapata, moved towards the ice lake, and said: "That is the biggest secret of Zoroastrianism. According to legend, whoever can discover that secret can get close to the true God."
After walking a few steps, Ayimu saw the kalan flowers beside the lake shore and couldn't help but stop.
She turned her head and shouted behind her: "Bring that traitor up! Let her explore the way in front!"
Soon, someone pushed a woman with bruises all over her body to the front, and forced her to move forward with a sharp knife.
Huayue recognized the identity of the woman, Ayimu's disciple, Han Guli, the woman who once set out on a journey to find the true God because her family was wiped out.
Hanguli broke free from the restraints of others, endured the severe pain in her body, raised her head and walked towards the ice lake.
Ayimu and the others stared at Hanguli's back and looked around, watching for any traps.
After a while, Hanguli arrived safely in the center of the ice lake.
Ayimu and the apostates from the Hidden Sect were overjoyed to see that there was no trap here.
Everyone quickened their pace and ran forward, wanting to be the first to search for the secrets of Zoroastrianism.
Huayue motioned to Hanguli to stand behind her, and then said to Tuoba Huaisu: "You will see the opportunity later and run to the entrance of the cave together."
Tuoba Huaisu: "What do you want to do?"
Huayue took out two dark round objects from her arms, lit the fuses on them with a fire stick, and said: "Underground here, there is not only glacier lake water, but also earth vein steam. The entire land is very unstable.
Stable, just a little movement can cause huge vibrations."
Looking at the object burning with sparks in Huayue's hand, Tuoba Huaisu vaguely understood.
She shouted a few times to the Zoroastrian believers beside her, then drew her weapon and looked at the enemies flying towards her in the distance.
Seeing that the enemy was approaching the ice lake, Hua Yue looked at the landing point, shouted loudly, and threw the object in his hand forward with all his strength.
Two pitch-black gunpowder bombs drew a graceful arc in the air, then bounced on the ice, slid for a long time, and finally landed on the edge of the glacial lake.
The next second, a huge explosion accompanied by a deafening sound instantly spread throughout the cave.
The already fragile geothermal stone surface suddenly became torn apart by the explosion, and streams of high-temperature water vapor like white mist spewed out from the ground, forming boiling fountains one after another.
Some unlucky enemies were sprayed with high-temperature steam, and their flesh was roasted to maturity in an instant amid heart-rending screams.
Some were even more unlucky. While running, their steps were unsteady and they fell into a cracked and sunken geothermal gap, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Taking advantage of the enemy's chaos, Hua Yue drew out her double blades from her waist and shouted to the people beside her: "Rush out now!"
After saying that, the wind blew under Hua Yue's feet, and he slid all the way on the ice. His figure was like a ghost, and he crashed directly into the enemy.
The two daggers were like red and white dragons. Wherever they touched, the sharp blades were broken, and human lives were like grass.
In a few breaths, Hua Yue fought his way through a group of enemies.
Seeing that Hua Yue was about to step out of the edge soon, suddenly a long staff swung from the side and hit Hua Yue's dagger hard, making the sound of metal and stone hitting each other.
Huayue kept retreating from this heavy blow. Before she could regain her footing, she saw a few sharp lights flashing in front of her eyes, but several iron needles filled with fishy poison flew directly towards her face.
Leaning back and supporting the ground with one hand, Hua Yue used an almost acrobatic one-hand flip to narrowly avoid the poisonous needle attack and retreated.
Ayimu, who had an ugly face, walked up to him with a sinister smile, looked up and down at the painted moon and said, "I know you."
Huayue said nothing, but looked at Ayimu warily.
Ayimu: "You are the woman who eats a lot. My master made a prophecy, and your name appeared in that prophecy."
Huayue moved her steps carefully and asked Ayimu: "Why are you obsessed with that prophecy?"
Ayimu: “Because I long for the true God!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ayimu flipped his wrist, and a burst of black mist enveloped Huayue.
Huayue was already on guard, took off her outer robe, completely enveloped the black mist, and threw it aside, thus neutralizing this attack.
Seeing this, Ayimu smiled and said: "Human life is as short as a candle. Facing this world, when you are still ignorant, death has already come to visit... It is for everyone to find the true God and escape from this cycle of life and death.
The biggest wish, isn’t it you?”
Huayue: "I'm not interested in the true god. If you want to pursue it, please do it yourself. I just want to leave now."
Ayimu wanted to say something more, but suddenly there was a roar from the ground, shaking the entire cave.
Tuoba Huaisu, who was not far away, supported her master and shouted to Huayue: "The explosion just now caused an earthquake. This place will collapse soon!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the icy lake that was originally like a mirror began to fall into pieces and slowly sank to the ground.
Shen Qian's ice coffin, the carrier of hope, became fragmented under the influence of the earthquake, like a small boat in the stormy waves.
That time traveler from later generations, that woman who had a rough life.
The desire to save Yan Qi and save the lives of her husband and children eventually sank into the abyss and disappeared amid the earthquake and tremors.
Ayimu looked at the sinking ice lake and instantly lost his original calmness.
She waved her cane, her face was full of panic, and she murmured: "No, I haven't seen the true God yet, you can't leave me like this!"
After saying that, Ayimu ignored the others, jumped onto the ice floe, ran towards the sinking direction of the ice coffin, and finally followed Shen Qian into the hell of ice and fire.
Without Ayimu's obstruction, Huayue led a group of Zoroastrian believers and fled to the entrance of the cave.
Looking back, Huayue was surprised to find that Hanguli had actually left the team and turned back to slowly move towards the ice lake.
Huayue shouted: "What are you doing? Come back!"
Hanguli turned around, smiled miserably, and said: "I want to resurrect my people, that is my only hope..."
After saying that, Hanguli turned her head and disappeared from Hua Yue's sight like a zombie.
Huayue sighed helplessly, and ran out of the underground tunnel with the others, and finally came to the entrance of the cave.
Sitting on the ground and taking a breath, Huayue saw Tuoba Huaisu hugging his master and sobbing softly by the mountain wall.
Huayue walked over and saw that Zapata's injuries were too serious and he was already on his deathbed.
The former saint of Zoroastrianism looked at Hua Yue and said with a smile: "In the palace of Umayyad, I used to be a stargazer, and you were still young at that time."
Huayue: "Yes, you taught me a lot."
Zapata: "Whether it is in the past, present or future, accompanying the prophet the rest of the way, don't forget..."
Zapata looked at Tuoba Huaisu again and whispered: "In my body, there are several sealed wax pills, and the paper wrapped inside is Wu Qing's last manuscript, which records the secret of immortality in the ice coffin. When I die, cut open my body and take them out."
Tuoba Huaisu kept crying and just shook his head.
Zapata patted Tuoba Huaisu's hand gently: "I didn't want to drag you into all this, but maybe fate is like this, and mortals can't do anything after all... But, you have done a good job along the way. , I’m proud of you.”
After Zapata said this, he slowly closed his eyes and dropped his palms feebly.
