Immortal Zhang is not inherently kind, but he is not so despicable as to hunt down his companions. In his eyes, Lao Ji is not a burden. Although Mr. Ji keeps saying that he does not understand Netherworld Valley, Zhang Chi thinks that even if he does not understand, he
He knew better than himself and Chu Jianghe. After all, it was Mr. Ji who led them into the teleportation array. According to Mr. Ji, he had personally sent hundreds of Netherworlds into this place back then.
In Zhang Chi's eyes, Mr. Ji is not a burden, but their last hope.
Although I saw the snow hills in front of me, I found that it was not that easy to actually walk there. The wind came as soon as it came. I stared at the hunting wind and endured the beating of snowflakes covering my head and face. Chu Jianghe led the way in front, and Zhang Chi carried Ji on his back.
The husband was marching hard behind him. Chu Jianghe turned around and said loudly to Zhang Chi: "I'll carry it for a while..."
Chu Jianghe is a smart man. Under the current situation, the only person he can trust is Zhang Chi. He must cooperate sincerely to have any hope of going out. He quickly figured out why Zhang Chi insisted on bringing Mr. Ji with him.
Zhang Chi shouted in the same voice: "I can hold on..." Their voices were not quiet, but they were blown to pieces by the cold wind.
Zhang Chi raised his head and saw a gray shadow flying past his head. Because the wind and snow blurred his vision, he couldn't see what it was, but judging from its size, it should be a giant bird.
Mr. Ji also raised his head. The gray shadow flew extremely fast in the sky and suddenly disappeared into the wind and snow, leaving a gray afterimage in Mr. Ji's field of vision.
When Chu Jianghe followed their gaze and looked again, he could no longer see any traces. Just as he was about to ask questions, he suddenly heard a shrill cry from the distance. The sound was like a baby's cry. Chu Jianghe exclaimed: "What?"
thing?"
Mr. Ji said: "Evil owl! A legendary giant bird that feeds on corpses."
"Legendary?" Chu Jianghe now doesn't believe that Mr. Ji knows anything about the Netherworld. Even the evil owl has nothing to be afraid of. The existence of the evil owl proves that there are other creatures in the Netherworld Valley. As long as they can
If they survive, they can survive.
Mr. Ji said: "There is some information about the teleportation array and the Netherworld Valley in the deep well, but most of it is speculation by later generations. I don't know whether it is true or not. I am just guessing based on the information. As for whether it is true or not, I can't be sure."
Chu Jianghe said calmly: "There is no three hundred taels of silver here." Although he thought Mr. Ji was lying, his hope increased a little. Under the current situation, the more Mr. Ji knew, the better. If he knew
Another exit from Netherworld Valley would be better.
Mr. Ji didn't take it seriously. Zhang Chi didn't say anything. The wind was too strong, so he opened his mouth and poured it in. It would be better to save some effort.
The three of them braved the wind and snow and finally arrived on the snow hill. Standing at the top of the snow hill, they looked far into the distance and vaguely saw the light in the distance. The three of them blinked at the same time. Because of the long night, they were particularly sensitive to light.
Sensitive, they saw it right, it was indeed the light.
"It should be a village!" Zhang Chi also became excited. People can usually stay calm when they can't see hope, but when hope really appears in front of them, it's difficult to keep calm.
Mr. Ji reminded him: "Maybe there are ghosts inside."
Chu Jianghe said: "Even if it's Netherworld, it's better than just the three of us." Even if the Netherworld Valley is full of demons, it's better than loneliness and loneliness. Chu Jianghe would rather die in battle than be alone.
Get old.
They walked down the sloping snow slope and continued to go against the wind. The snow stopped, but the wind became stronger and stronger. The snow on the ground formed flowing snow mist driven by the wind. Although it was a long night, because of the snow,
The light does not affect their vision.
Chu Jianghe secretly admired Zhang Chi's physical strength. From the time he came to Netherworld Valley to now, Zhang Chi was basically carrying Mr. Ji on his back. At least on the surface, Zhang Chi's physical strength did not show any decline.
As they got closer and closer, they vaguely saw that the lighted place should be a small village. There were more than a dozen families in the village. The structures of the houses were all mountain-shaped roofs, a bit like Japanese gassho-zukuri. The towering roofs
Thick snow fell on the ground, and dim yellow lights appeared in several houses. From a distance, it looked like a world in a fairy tale.
Behind beauty, there are dangers. Zhang Daxian couldn't help but think of Bai Xiaomi. Bai Xiaomi's real body can be regarded as a first-class beauty, but this little girl has a deep mind and is ruthless in her actions. Zhang Chi originally thought that he and Bai Xiaomi
Having had many experiences of life and death together, even if Bai Xiaomi did not fall in love with her wholeheartedly, at least she should not harm herself, but she would betray herself without hesitation whenever necessary.
Zhang Chi remembered what Mr. Ji had said before: "Mr. Ji, who is Bai Yunsheng?"
Mr. Ji did not answer.
They came to one of the lighted rooms. Chu Jianghe went over and knocked on the door. After waiting for a while, he heard a timid voice coming from inside: "Who?" The voice was a little childish, like a child.
When he first heard the human voice, Chu Jianghe was very excited. He brewed his emotions and tried to make his voice gentle: "We are passing by, we are cold and hungry, so we want to take a place to escape the wind and snow."
The door opened with a creak, and a thin little girl came out. She had braids and was wearing a tattered red cotton jacket and black cotton trousers. She was holding an oil lamp in her hand. This oil lamp was very delicate.
Wearing a crystal lampshade, she was a little over 1.4 meters tall. She raised her head and looked at the three uninvited guests.
Chu Jianghe smiled at the little girl and said, "Hello, little sister, are your parents here?"
There was a violent coughing sound inside, and then an old voice came: "Xiao Hongying, let them go."
The little girl said: "Grandpa, it's very windy outside, and freezing rain is coming."
The old man said: "The house on the west side is empty. If they want to go, they can go."
The little girl named Xiao Hongying blinked and said, "Grandpa, should I take them there?"
The old man sighed and said: "You have such a good heart, kid, how can you understand that people's hearts are sinister? They are all ghosts."
Chu Jianghe explained: "Old man, we are not ghosts, we are human beings."
The old man fell silent, and after a while he said: "Take them there and be back soon."
Xiao Hongying responded, holding an oil lamp and leading the three of them to the left. There was a lonely hut on the edge of the village. Xiao Hongying pointed to the house and said: "You go inside to escape the wind and snow.
, there will be freezing rain soon, and you will be frozen if you stay outside." She left the oil lamp to Chu Jianghe.
Zhang Chi smiled at Xiao Hongying and said, "Thank you, Xiao Hongying."
Xiao Hongying was a little embarrassed by his praise and turned to leave. Chu Jianghe asked: "Xiao Hongying, can you help us find something to eat?"
Xiao Hongying turned around and said: "There is konjac in the room, you can eat it as you like." After she said that, she left.
Mr. Ji looked at Xiao Hongying's back and whispered: "This little girl has amazing aura, she is not an ordinary person."
Chu Jianghe scolded him: "Nonsense, those who can come here are not ordinary people." These gassho-like houses are all built on the ground. The advantage of this is that they can isolate the moisture on the ground. Walk along the wooden ladder to the door.
Chu Jianghe pushed open the door. The door was not locked and opened with a slight push. The main structure of the entire house was made of wood, with a thatched roof on top.
In the middle of the house was paved with stone slabs, and a stove was placed above the stone slabs. The chimney of the stove led directly to the top of the house.
Zhang Chi put Mr. Ji down, went to get the firewood, and lit the stove first. Everyone arrived at Netherworld Valley, and there was no need to hide it. Immortal Zhang picked up a firewood and shook it in his hand, and the firewood started to burn. Zhang Chi threw the firewood away.
Enter the stove.
Mr. Ji looked on and said with a smile: "Is your ability pyrotechnics?"
Zhang Chixin said that you are mistaken. This is not an ordinary arson technique. I am Samadhi True Fire. He did not explain and nodded and said: "It's a small trick that will make you laugh."
Mr. Ji said: "It's strange, I can't feel your spiritual energy. You really hide it."
Sure enough, Chu Jianghe found the konjac. He ran over with a handful of konjac the size of his fist and said excitedly: "Do you see what I found?"
"Taro!"
Chu Jianghe nodded, found an iron pot, went out and shoveled a pot of snow, came back and stewed it on the stove, and used the melted snow water to cook the konjac.
Zhang Chi helped Mr. Ji check the injury.
Mr. Ji said: "There is a lot of spiritual energy here. My bone injuries should be recovered within three days, but I don't know who lives in this village?"
Chu Jianghe said: "Who cares, if you come, you will be in peace. Let's fill our stomachs first, and then find a way out after dawn." After saying this, he realized that there might never be dawn here, and he couldn't help but laugh. Compared with the original
Chu Jianghe was in a much better mood now that he was hesitant and lost when he came to Netherworld Valley. At least they were alive and had found a place to stay. They were much luckier than the two guards who had just died in the hands of Mr. Ji.
As expected, people should not have evil thoughts. If those two guards had not had evil thoughts and honestly shared the difficulties with them, they would definitely be here now.
Zhang Chi checked the house and saw a wooden ladder on the right front. The wooden ladder was steep. Climb up the wooden ladder and you will reach the second floor of the house. Standing on the floor of the second floor, you can see the gabled roof above your head.
There are a lot of bacon hanging above, and some bows, arrows and weapons are placed around it. It seems that the owner of this room should be an Orion.
There was a small round window on the second floor. Zhang Chi touched it and saw that it was cold at the touch. He thought it was glass, but after touching it, he realized that it was made of ice. There was a crackling sound from outside. Zhang Chi approached the small window and asked
Looking outside, I saw it was raining outside. It was not so much rain as ice mist. The rain had already frozen before it hit the ground. When the wind blew, the ice mist spread everywhere. The outside world
