When Wang Tiequiang heard this, he was slightly startled. The sound seemed to be the cry of the little maid named Huang Ying on the boat. But the Shun River may condense into ice on the surface of the river at other times, but there will never be ice during the flood season.
Blocky. Not to mention today’s weather...
Wang Tiejian couldn't help but look up at the sky, and saw the fiery red sun at noon. Even though he was only wearing a thin leather jacket, he still felt slightly hot and wanted to sweat. What's more, there was something in the ice.
Anyone else?
Even after so many years in the world, this was the first time he heard of such a strange thing. After reaching out and touching the two iron short guns on his back, he raised his legs and walked towards the place where the sound came from.
As soon as he walked to the side of the big boat, he saw at a glance that there were seven or eight people gathered there, including men and women, including maids, male servants, and boatmen. They were huddled together and pointing at something in the river.
, with a look of wonder in his mouth.
I glanced slightly sideways, and sure enough, four to five feet away from the side of the boat to the east, there was something white floating on the river, which was very eye-catching.
After taking a closer look, it turned out to be a crystal clear ice cube, and it really looked like a human figure was trapped in it.
"It's really strange. Could it be that someone fell into the river in the past and is now floating up from the bottom of the water when the ice melts? Wang Tiejian couldn't help but murmured to himself with a look of surprise.
"Brother Wang, what happened?" There were footsteps behind him and a low voice.
"Brother Gao, you're here too." Without looking back, Wang Tiequiang knew that the person coming behind him was his old partner for many years, an escort who had practiced hard kung fu for several years and was also famous for his boxing and kicking skills.
"Oh, there are really people in the ice. This is a rare thing." A big man with a beard casually walked to the side and said in wonder.
"No matter how strange a dead person is, it doesn't matter." Wang Tiejian sneered and said indifferently.
"That's true! At least it's impossible for dead people to hijack the ship." The big man stroked his thick beard and said with a smile.
"What are you shouting about? I wonder, has my wife just rested in peace?" A middle-aged man dressed as a Confucian scholar walked out of the cabin. Seeing this situation, his face darkened, and he scolded the maids and servants.
This is Master Zhou, who is said to be a confidant of that official. It was Wang Tiejian and the two men he hired who boarded the ship with the official family members.
"Master, in the river..." The little girl named Huang Ying timidly stretched out her white fingers and pointed at the river.
Master Zhou was a little strange when he saw Wang Tiequiang and two others standing here. When he saw the little girl say this, he couldn't help but glance over. When he saw the ice cube and the figure in the ice, his face was naturally full of joy.
He looked surprised, but then he frowned and said:
"It's just a dead man. There's no point in looking at him anymore. Let's go and do things. Do you have to ask me to call Butler Wang?" At the end of his sentence, the Confucian scholar's tone was a bit stern.
As soon as they heard the words 'Steward Wang', the expressions of these maids and servants changed drastically, and they immediately dispersed. The remaining two or three crew members also sneaked away.
Wang Tiejiang and the big man looked at each other, and felt that it would not be good to stay here, so they wanted to walk away together. But before the big man named Gao Dafeng took a step forward, he couldn't help but glance at the river again, and suddenly his figure changed.
After a pause, a exclamation came out of his mouth.
"How is it possible? This person is still alive."
Upon hearing this, Wang Tiequiang and Master Zhou were both startled and looked at each other. However, they found nothing unusual. The figure was still motionless in the ice.
The Confucian scholar looked at the big man with suspicion.
"It can't be wrong. The man in Bingzhongna moved his eyelids just now. I really saw it." The big man said with certainty.
"Brother Gao will not lie to us. It seems that man is really not dead." Wang Tiejian chose to believe his companion's words without hesitation.
Seeing this, Master Zhou was a little doubtful.
But after thinking for a while, he still shook his head and said:
"Even if that person is really alive, he doesn't care about our affairs. There is no need to cause any trouble to Madam. Since the other ships are not in trouble, we don't need to interfere."
After Wang Tiequiang heard this, he didn't feel any anger or injustice in his heart. The man in the ice looked a little strange, and it was exactly what he wanted by not letting him on the ship.
After all, he has been around for a long time, and he is much more wary of these weird things than the average person.
On the contrary, there was a hint of hesitation on the tall face.
"Master Zhou, wait a minute! Saving a person's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, and my mother has always been compassionate. Since this person is not dead, let's save him first." A sweet voice suddenly came from the cabin,
Then a beautiful girl in a brocade dress walked out, followed by the maid Huang Ying who had just left, following behind with lowered eyebrows and eyes.
It seems that she was the one who told the girl about this.
"Second Miss! This is not good. Let a stranger board the boat...?" Master Zhou saw the woman and bowed respectfully, but there was hesitation on his face.
"There's nothing wrong with it. Since this man survived the catastrophe in the ice, he still met us. It can be regarded as a merit of our family. Anyway, there are many vacant rooms on the ship, so we just need to make arrangements. Are there so many of us afraid of him dying?
You can't do it." The woman said softly, with an unquestionable look on her eyebrows.
"Okay. Since the lady has given the order, I will send people down to rescue them." The Confucian scholar thought about it for a moment, then he had no choice but to clasp his fists and agree.
The girl in the brocade shirt smiled slightly, said nothing, and walked back to the cabin with the little maid.
But Master Zhou looked at the cabin, his brows furrowed.
"You two also heard it. It seems that this person is really going to be saved. But the ice is so huge, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you both." Master Zhou said with a wry smile.
"It doesn't matter. I don't have anything else to do. I'll just fight with all my strength." Gao Dafeng said nonchalantly.
Wang Tiequiang looked at Ju Bing again, and then nodded slowly, indicating that there was no problem.
…
After staying in the darkness for an unknown amount of time and suffering from a splitting headache, Han Li finally woke up from his drowsiness.
But before he opened his eyes, he heard the immature girl's voice.
"Old Master, when will this person wake up? It's been two days and two nights, is everything really okay? The lady has been waiting for my reply!"
"Hmph! What do you know, little girl? I only know a little bit about medicine. How do you know when he will wake up? But this person's symptoms are really weird. His face is obviously pale and frightening, and there are signs of great loss of qi and blood, but after checking the pulse
, but the pulse is extremely strong and it seems that the body is much stronger than ordinary people. This really puzzles me!" An old voice said somewhat depressedly.
"Hee hee! I think the old master probably took his pulse wrong!" The girl seemed to be very familiar with the old master, so she actually started teasing him.
"Nonsense. In the past, if any one of you had a headache or fever, I wouldn't always like it. How could anything go wrong? Maybe this person has a strange disease that no one has ever seen before. I'm not a doctor, so what's the point of not being able to tell it?
Weird." The old man seemed a little embarrassed, but he still said it bravely.
After hearing this, Han Li felt that he was lying on an extremely comfortable bed, with a thick mattress underneath him and a smooth quilt covering his body. His body was extremely warm.
Listening to the old man and the young man talking in Jin's language, Han Li felt a little at ease.
It seems that he was not only rescued by some mortals, but also finally arrived in the territory of Dajin. However, his current situation is really not good!
The moment he woke up, he used his spiritual consciousness to detect the situation in his body. As a result, he took a breath of cold air and was filled with pain.
After escaping from the pursuit of Saint Tianlan and escaping thousands of miles away, it was time for him to unblock himself. He immediately jumped into the river and used the technique of suspended animation taught by God Lord Dayan to seal himself in the ice.
He then let the ice cubes float downstream, thus escaping the pursuit of the unexpected people.
But his current physical condition is really bad. It is even three points worse than he expected.
Not only did he lose a lot of blood and essence due to excessive use of Blood Shadow Escape, his body was extremely weak, but the loss of true energy was even more serious and abnormal, causing his cultivation level to plummet several levels again, and he actually dropped to the level of the Qi Refining Stage.
In this way, without five or six years of good rest and recovery, there is really no hope of regaining the original level of cultivation.
Han Li sighed secretly, and suddenly thought of something again, and hurriedly checked the flying swords in his body.
Finally, in a flying sword, he found the unconscious Yin Yue, whose soul was also extremely weak, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
But the failure of the second Yuan Ying to return also gave him a big headache.
Although the distance was too far to accurately sense anything, it was obvious that the second Nascent Soul was not killed by the great Immortal Master Tutu as he expected. There was still a subtle connection that seemed to be broken but not broken, letting him know that this was the case.
The Nascent Soul still exists. But if the Nascent Soul cannot be recalled within a certain period of time, once the other party becomes independent, the backlash against you can be expected.
The only thing that kept him from panicking was that once he recovered his original cultivation level, the second Nascent Soul's initial cultivation level would never be that of his opponent. It would not be difficult for him to find the opponent and subdue him again.
matter.
With this thought in his mind, he suddenly started transmitting a message in the sea of consciousness.
"Senior, how long did I coma in the ice before I came to Dajin? Are there any Dajin monks nearby?"
"Well! You finally woke up. You have been drifting at the bottom of the river for more than a year. Finally, the mana attached to the ice was exhausted, and the ice cubes automatically floated to the surface. But, boy Han, your situation is really not good."
God Lord Dayan responded and replied lazily.
"My own body, how could I not know that the situation was not good? But I finally managed to escape this time. It is finally a great blessing among misfortunes, and there is nothing to complain about. After all, in that kind of situation, not everyone can survive in Yuan Dynasty.
It slipped away from the hands of the immortal cultivators in the late infant stage." Han Li smiled and said with some satisfaction.
"Hmph, you're quite reasonable! But I haven't asked you yet why you never told me about your psychic treasure. No wonder you put me outside the retreat during several retreats.
I have long wanted to personally study the real psychic treasure. Stop talking nonsense and take the time to show me the small cauldron for a closer look." God Lord Dayan's tone changed and he said somewhat depressedly.
