Chapter Twenty-Eight: Ice Cave Distress (I)

When I left the castle, there were scattered snowflakes in the sky.

In the bumpy carriage, Ni Meng and I lifted the curtain and leaned in front of the window to catch the crystal clear coldness. Ni Meng shook off the snow that had melted in his palm, but it happened to be thrown on the face of Jiuli, who was sitting on the opposite side and napping.

Jiuli sat up straight and shouted, "The roof of the car is leaking!" ”

Willow leaned against the wall of the car, opened his eyes slightly and looked at Jiuli and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's me who threw the water in Jiuli's face." Mud Meng hurriedly retracted her head, sat down honestly, and explained to Willow.

"It's just a flirtatious couple, you can continue to sleep!" I sat down beside him and said in a joking tone.

"Sister Tassel!"

"Madame!"

Mud Meng and Jiuli had a tacit understanding and glared at me at the same time.

Willow put his arm around my shoulders and said in a hoarse voice: "I slept too much and became more tired, let Xiao Ran stop for a while, and we will get out of the car and walk." ”

"Is that okay?" I asked with some anxiety, Willow's spirit is getting worse and worse these days, most of the time he spends sleeping every day, and he only tastes a few bites when he eats.

He curled the corners of his mouth and nodded at me, I got up and lifted the curtain and poked Xiao Ran's snowflake shoulder and said, "Take a break, I'll go down with Willow for a walk." ”

Xiao Ran turned his head when he heard the sound, and I saw that his handsome face was red from the cold, and there were white ice slags hanging on his eyebrows and eyelashes.

"Go inside and sit for a while, it's too windy outside." I dragged him to the carriage by the corner of his clothes, Xiao Ran waved his hand, and said, "I'm not cold, my legs are a little numb, I'll go down with you." With that, he took the reins, rolled over and jumped out of the carriage, and helped me and Willow down in turn.

"Sister Tassel, I'm afraid of the cold, so I won't go for a walk with you." Ni Meng lay in front of the window and rubbed his little round face, and said a little embarrassed.

"Mmmm, no problem, you and Jiuli just stay in the car and wait for us." I wrapped my cloak tighter and took Willow's arm and walked along the long trail.

In the carriage behind him, there was a fierce quarrel between Ni Meng and Jiuli.

"What are you afraid of the cold, you big man, get out of here! I don't know if a lonely man and a widow will have an accident if they are in the same room! ”

"Get out, you get out! Besides, which of you looks like a woman, two raisins on your back are simply indistinguishable! ”

"What did you say!"

"I said you should change your name to Sha Pingping!"

"Smack!"

"Bang!"

“……”

Wei Luo and I couldn't stand up straight with laughter, but Xiao Ran behind him suddenly worried: "Nothing will happen to the two of them alone, right?" ”

"Anyway, do you like mud or not? If you don't act again, I'll be able to match her with Jiuli. I glanced at him in a threatening tone.

"......" Xiao Ran was so angry that I raised his hand and slapped me on the head.

"Hey, she's stupid, you're still shooting, what if you're stupid!" Willow raised his fist angrily, and as he spoke, he wanted to come forward and beat him.

"She's already reached the bottom line of being stupid, and she can't be stupid anymore." Xiao Ran was very unconvinced.

I didn't like it when I heard it, what did I mean to be stupid......

He glared at Xiao Ran resentfully for a long time, only to realize that he had unconsciously walked to the edge of a frozen lake.

After being hit by the two of them, he was in a bad mood, so he stepped on the ice alone, looking left and right, to see if there were any fish to catch under the ice.

"Tassel, come back quickly, the thickness of the ice is not clear, be careful of falling down." Xiao Ran followed me up, and I gave him a disdainful look, and then quickened my pace.

How can I say that I am also a person who can do light work, in his eyes, I will be so stupid that I fall into the ice cave, he will underestimate me too much.

A cold wind blew, I shivered slightly, accompanied by white snowflakes, and a figure suddenly flashed into view. The man was about twenty years old, dressed in a thick fox fur, wearing a felt hat, and his eyebrows and eyes were resolute and handsome, and I was fascinated for a moment, until he respectfully arched his hand towards Willow behind me, and I came back to my senses.

"Brother Wei, I finally found you!"

"Su Che? How did you end up here? Surprised, Willow stepped forward and shook the visitor's hands.

Su Che? Willow's brother-in-law? Today's Yiwang ......

"Hey, hey, hey, is it fun on the ice, let's go back to the carriage to talk. It's windy and snowy, and you're going to freeze for a few hours. Xiao Ran clasped his arms and shouted dissatisfiedly.

"This brother is right, let's talk in another place." Su Che took Wei Luo's arm and walked to the ancient road by the lake, Xiao Ran glanced at him, and then followed.

But suddenly with a "snap", the ice surface shattered, and Xiao Ran in front of him disappeared in an instant.

"Save ...... Save people! I lay on the edge of the ice cave and shouted hoarsely.

Only then did Willow and Su Che turn around, and Su Che quickly took off the belt on his body while asking me not to move.

"Xiao Ran knows the nature of water, he should be able to swim up by himself, right?" I wiped the tears rolling down my eyes and asked.

"This is Toad Lake, which the Northlanders call the Bottomless Lake." Su Che frowned, his face slightly panicked.

Bottomless Lake......

A throbbing pain hit my heart, and I looked at the calm and waveless lake, and large tears dripped down. How can this be, a moment ago we were talking and laughing, but now ......

"Sister-in-law, you grab your belt and walk slowly from the side, your steps must be light." Su Che threw the end of his belt from the opposite side of the ice cave.

"I won't go over, you rescue Xiao Ran first, the weather is so cold, he will freeze down there."

"Tassel...... You come over first, and we will definitely save Xiao Ran. Willow looked at me with burning eyes, and I saw a deep pain in his dark eyes.

There were cracks of different sizes on the ice under my feet, so I grabbed the belt handed by Su Che with my short body, looked at the still quiet lake, and walked cautiously towards the lake.

Just after taking a few steps, there was a gurgling cracking sound on the ice, and I felt a loosening of my feet, "Ah! A strong chill suddenly spread over the lower half of his body.

"Hold on! Don't let go! Su Che grabbed the other end of his belt and slowly pulled me up. At this moment, my feet were suddenly pulled by a strange force.

Su Che's body instantly slipped forward, and Wei Luo quickly supported him, and then threw out a hidden weapon with a thin silk thread and nailed it to the tree behind him, and then wrapped the other end of the silk thread around the hidden weapon and hit the opposite tree. After Su Che stabilized his figure, he stepped on the silk thread and came to the edge of the ice cave.

"Give me your hand!"

"How can the silk thread be so thin to hold the weight of two people?" Although I had doubts, I obediently handed him my hand.
