The water in the pool was so cold that it made Chen Yan shiver almost instantly.
This surprised him a little.
When we were in Snow Wolf Valley before, no matter how fierce the wind and snow were, we didn't feel the slightest chill. Why was the water in this pool so cold?
Then the deeper I swam, the colder it became, and I felt like I would have been frozen if I hadn't had the Celestial Silkworm Soft Armor and the Snow Wolf Cloak on my body.
Looking at Chen Xiaoqiang again, he seemed to be freezing too.
At this time, Chen Yan was looking at Chen Yan tremblingly. His eyes were obviously asking if he should continue downstream.
Of course it is, and it must be.
Because even they want to retreat, let alone those who are weaker than them.
Therefore, even if the swarm of locusts that came before entered the water, they probably would not survive until the end.
After swimming nearly ten meters deeper, a dark cave entrance suddenly appeared in sight.
It was really sudden, because you couldn't see it unless you swam in front of it.
Then as soon as he entered the cave, there was a flickering firelight shining in front of him.
Looking up, the light came from the end of the cave, which was only about ten meters away.
But at this moment, Chen Yan and Chen Xiaoqiang didn't have enough energy in their lungs.
Mainly because of the cold and stiff muscles, I swim slowly, so even if it was enough in the first place, it is not enough now.
Chen Yan didn't want to look back, but Chen Xiaoqiang gritted his teeth and persisted.
One person and one dog swam forward with all their strength, and as they were about to arrive, the Roaring Dog began to choke on the water, and its four legs began to kick around.
Chen Yan quickly grabbed it by its tail, then paddled hard several times and finally got out of the hole.
Ahead was the open water, the fire became brighter, and at the same time there was a crisp and rhythmic sound of iron.
Jingle bell, jingle bell!
The sound penetrated the water and made the eardrums buzz.
Chen Yan finally choked on the water, less than half a meter away from the water.
Fortunately, after a few sips, I breathed in fresh air, and now I slipped Chen Xiaoqiang out, and then slapped this guy's face hard.
Well, classmate Xiaoqiang is relieved.
It is said that dogs are stronger than humans at the beginning, but obviously dogs are not as good as humans in water.
Chen Yan's hand was so heavy now that he was about to slap the dog's head into a pig's head. Only then did Chen Xiaoqiang wake up and howl suddenly.
painful……
One person and one dog landed on the shore in a state of embarrassment, vomiting water and looking ahead.
But I saw that this was an underground cave with a very huge area.
There is a large iron stove in the middle, and the charcoal fire inside is burning brightly.
There is an iron felt beside the stove, and a middle-aged uncle is standing next to the iron felt.
Judging by his clothing and hairstyle, he should be an ancient Dong ethnic person, with a tall build and dark skin.
He was forging a piece of red-hot iron, which looked like a sword.
Hearing the sound of water at this moment, he looked up, and then he saw Chen Yan looking down at something.
Chen Yan was looking at the footprints, and now he laughed softly.
No locusts have come, which is great!
"This is..." The middle-aged uncle put down the hammer in his hand and was about to ask a question. Chen Yan had already walked two steps to the front. He cupped his fists and saluted: "I'm Yang Erlang. I'm on my way to Taoshan to save my mother. I'm passing by here...Excuse me. What do you call uncle?"
The same lines, but different objects.
The middle-aged uncle was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly and said: "Erlang, you are finally here. I am a general and make a living by forging swords. This is my newly built Bingtan Sword House. I originally thought that no one could discover it, but I didn't expect... Look... We are truly destined to come to you. In this case, tell me your request."
Go-getter?
Chen Yan was shocked.
At the same time, he finally understood that the history Yang Zongyue learned was different from his own in many ways.
Otherwise, he would not have named such a famous person the word swordsmith, and he would not have written Mo Xie only as the swordsmith's wife.
This is the difference between parallel universes.
It is this difference that will bring all kinds of unexpected surprises.
"It turns out to be Uncle Ganjiang. That's great. Can you...can you help me take a look at this axe?" Chen Yan handed over the mountain axe.
Ganjiang took the axe, weighed it in his hand first, then looked at the axe blade, shook his head and said: "It's no longer useful, I have to make a new one. But I'm better at making swords... Erlang, do you only want an axe?"
"Yes, I have to split the peach mountain to rescue my mother!" Chen Yan said seriously.
The general was silent for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, then I will make you an ax that can cut mountains. But I don't have much good iron left here. I don't know if you..."
Wow!
As soon as Chen Yan waved his hand, his personal imprint placed all the dozen weapons collected last time on the iron felt.
These weapons all come from the void. Even if the quality is poor, they are still suitable materials.
Moreover, several of them seemed to be of great interest to the general. He picked them up and looked at them again and again, then nodded and said: "I have enough iron, but there are still two key things missing. I wonder if Erlang can get them."
"able!"
"The first is the heart of thunder. There is a thunderstorm sixty miles northeast of here, and thunder falls all the time. You have to take the piece of black iron that has been struck by lightning the most times and bring it back. The second is iron The heart of the wood tree. Seventy miles further north from Leize, there is an iron forest. You need to saw off the thickest iron tree and give me the hardest piece of wood heart in the middle."
After a pause, the general said again: "The saw is with my beloved wife. She lives thirty miles east of Leize. Over there is another sword house of mine, and it is also my home."
As he spoke, Qianjiang took out a jade pendant from his arms and handed it over: "Give this jade to her, and she will give you the saw."
"Thank you so much, Uncle General. Erlang is leaving!" Chen Yan took the jade pendant and turned to leave, but was stopped by General Jiang: "This ice pool is so cold that it's so cold that it's so cold that you can take a sip of wine before leaving."
"Do you have wine?" Chen Yan's eyes lit up.
"This wine is very strong. You will get drunk easily if you drink too much." Gan Jiang put a wine gourd into Chen Yan's hand, then glanced at Chen Xiaoqiang and asked, "How does it drink?"
"It..." Chen Yan hesitated for a moment and said with a smile: "It doesn't seem to have ever drunk alcohol."
"Then don't let it drink, otherwise I'm afraid it will die of drunkenness in the pool."
Woof!
Chen Xiaoqiang shouted, meaning I can drink.
Gan Jiang ignored it, and Chen Yan just pretended not to hear it, pulled out the stopper on the wine gourd, raised his head and took a big gulp of wine.
Grandma's, I'm afraid it's not 100% pure alcohol, it almost made Chen Yan faint.
His vision went dark and his body swayed twice.
Immediately, a wave of heat surged from his Dantian, and white smoke suddenly appeared on his forehead.
Chen Yan's face was red and tears were streaming down his face. He coughed twice and waved his hand to pass the wine gourd to the general, but his vision was blurred and he actually handed it to Chen Xiaoqiang.
The Roaring Sky Dog was so frightened that he immediately ran away and barked twice, meaning that he would not drink even if he beat me to death...
hehe!
The general laughed, reached for the wine gourd, patted Chen Yan on the shoulder and said: "Erlang's drinking capacity is a little light, why don't you go slowly?"
"It's okay..." Chen Yan waved his hand, "Actually, I'm a pretty good drinker, so... I used to have at least one bottle of whiskey a day, but... I've never drank 100-proof whiskey, so..."
After burping, Chen Yan took off the snow wolf cloak from behind, and then looked around for Chen Xiaoqiang.
"Death... where did death go? Here, come here..."
Woof!
Chen Xiaoqiang was standing in front of Chen Yan, shouting loudly with a look of disgust on his face.
