Chapter 1131: Into the Ice Field
The Far North is inaccessible and few mortals, but there are some places full of spiritual energy, which attract many monks to open their doors here.
Over time, in some relatively unique and relatively safe areas, some special markets for trading Extreme North specialties have been opened, and they have become the peripheral forces of the Extreme North Ice and Snow Sacred Palace.
For many years, the monks who walked the Far North divided the Far North into three large areas according to the degree of danger and regional characteristics, and according to the unscrupulous Taoist, the early monks of Jindan were at most suitable for activities in the first area, that is, the "frozen soil".
Permafrost, a layer of soil that is permanently frozen and does not melt.
The whole ice field looks green and secluded, there is little vegetation to see, and the cold ground is covered with a lot of unknown moss.
The wind was always howling on the ice field, and monks with a little lower strength were likely to be blown away by the wind.
The immeasurable donkey cart went against the wind, the stubborn little donkey could no longer run, on the carriage, began to flicker hazy light, the large array opened, reducing the pressure on the donkey, in the headwind, the donkey pulled the cart, and gradually deepened.
After the frozen ground, it enters the ice field.
Icefield, the field of ice.
There is a wind blowing all year round, freezing everything, and ordinary Jindan monks can't go far.
Some of the larger sects attached to the Ice and Snow Sacred Palace are distributed in the vast ice field, but most of them cultivate in the residence all year round, and if they are not monks and trials, they will rarely be seen in the ice field.
The last area is the real core of the Far North, the "Ice World".
Perennial snowflakes fluttering, snow up to several feet deep, there are polar day, polar night, aurora and other unique weather area.
The Ice and Snow Palace is hidden in it.
Even if the strength of the monks is strong enough, there are very few monks who go directly to the ice and snow world, because the majesty of the Ice and Snow Sacred Palace is inviolable, and all kinds of extreme weather. The test of the monk is also incomparable.
For example, the Polar Northern Lights, even if it is a powerful monk of the Yuan Infant, he does not dare to take it lightly, and if one is not good, the body of the Yuan Infant will be instantly turned into nothingness.
The last stop of the immeasurable donkey cart into the Far North. It is only to the innermost part of the ice field, close to the ice and snow world, but it will not enter the ice and snow world.
According to Li Yuncong's reasoning, in principle, as long as you enter the ice field, there may be heavy water formation, and the closer you get to the ice and snow world, the greater the chance.
As for what will happen in the ice and snow world, Li Yuncong didn't say it. But Sun Hao understood that there was definitely heavy water in the Ice and Snow World, but it was controlled by the Ice and Snow Holy Palace, and ordinary monks had no chance to see it at all.
Sun Hao's plan was to search in the ice field first, if not, and then enter the ice and snow world, as a last resort, he didn't want to alarm Xia Qingyu. The main thing is not to want to alarm the Holy Palace.
A month later, the immeasurable donkey cart was heading against the wind. Came to the first stop: the Arctic Ice Cliffs.
A piece of cyan ice, towering beside a deep ice ditch, a cliff, with a platform of five or six acres in the middle, leeward, with some buildings on it. It's a small trading bazaar.
The donkey rushed into the bazaar with excitement.
The five passengers were in high spirits and began to wander around the small bazaar, and Gonalong began to greet some vendors with familiarity, haggle for prices, and negotiate some material deals.
Sun Hao also walked around a few times with great interest. It is true that a lot of ice attribute specialties have been discovered, but the level of these specialties is generally low, and at most they are suitable for the cultivation of foundation building cultivators, but they are not of much help to Sun Hao.
It didn't take long for the small cliff to be finished, Sun Hao returned to the immeasurable donkey cart, only to find that Jian Wushuang had already returned, and nodded to himself with a smile.
After a while, Wei Bing also returned, but he was not empty-handed, holding a small white flower in his hand, sniffing a few times in front of his nose from time to time, looking intoxicated.
Seeing Sun Hao, Wei Bing smiled and said naturally: "Brother Xiaohao, this is Snow Lotus, a specialty of the Ice Field, this fragrance is fresh and refined, leisurely and elegant, but it has a unique flavor." ”
Sun Hao looked at this "caring person" who cherished flowers, and a hint of familiarity surged in his heart again, smiled, and said, "Brother Wei is really interested. ”
The small flower in Wei Bing's hand is indeed a snow lotus, of course, it is the kind of extreme northern specialty with a low level, low value, and greater ornamental value than cultivation value, not the real extreme northern cultivation treasure medicine "Iceberg Snow Lotus".
In less than an hour, the monks had returned.
Even the dragon came back with a smile on his face.
Wei Bing asked very enthusiastically: "Guo Daoyou, why don't you talk about a few more business, there is still more than an hour." ”
Guo Nalong knew that these passengers were all Jindan cultivators, and they were all higher than their own cultivators, so they didn't dare to be cold anymore, and said with a slightly wry smile: "I want to too, but you are all back, and we have to leave immediately." ”
The other monks were stunned for a moment.
Sun Hao remembered some information, and a smile appeared on his face.
At this time, the originally relatively peaceful market suddenly broke out.
Someone shouted: "Wu Liang, you sell me fakes again!"
Then, with a whistle and a bang, the unscrupulous Taoist chief landed on the donkey cart and roared loudly: "Shop around, how can it be fake?" Lao He, don't fucking wronged a good person, stupid donkey, go, have a ...... ...... driving"
Inside the donkey cart, the five monks felt their bodies lean back slightly, and the immeasurable donkeys had already run wildly, running away with their own familiar skills.
Gonalong shrugged and waved his hands at everyone, as if to say, "Look, that's it." ”
Everyone remembered the nickname of the unscrupulous Taoist, and couldn't help but shake their heads in unison.
With such a monk, the trip to the extreme north may be a lot of trouble.
Subsequently, all the way to the permafrost area, everyone really saw what it means to be "unscrupulous".
Driving a donkey cart, he stole someone's Sydney, and the owner chased after him, and he said, "Stupid donkey, you steal ...... again", and then ran away.
exchanged with people, and obviously took out a sample of nine folded ears, but after the exchange, the other party found that it had become Houttuynia cordata, and chased and killed for dozens of miles.
All the way, he was abducted and stolen, and he crossed the entire permafrost area.
I saw a white ice field.
With a sigh, he parked the immeasurable donkey cart at the entrance of the ice field, and the unscrupulous Taoist chief sighed and said: "Fellow Daoists, as expected, everyone's goal is the ice field, hey, the ice field is dangerous, I will say one last word, if the strength is not enough, please don't take the risk easily, the Taoist chief promises, as long as you are in the unscrupulous donkey cart, then, you are safe, and you are not responsible for leaving the immeasurable donkey cart." ”
After speaking, the unscrupulous Taoist deliberately glanced at Sun Hao.
Among the five passengers, Sun Hao's cultivation was the second-to-last, and he also looked the youngest, and the unscrupulous Dao Chief's previous advice to Sun Hao was actually to operate in the frozen soil area, and it would be relatively safe, but he didn't think that this young Jindan real newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and he actually followed up in the ice field, but he needed an extra reminder.
The infinite donkey cart has traveled the far north for decades, and the route is relatively safe and fixed, and each station will stay for a period of time according to the distance of the resource gathering place, during which time the monk can go out to look for opportunities, as long as the donkey cart leaves before it leaves.
After entering the ice field, the gathering wind began to go out, and every time the donkey cart stopped, he would always rush into the ice field to find the ice elixir he needed.
Gonaron continued to find someone to trade.
Wei Bing, as always, worked hard to search for all kinds of exotic flowers and plants in the far north, and every one he saw was very precious and collected.
Only Sun Hao and Jian Wushuang still didn't move, and usually, the two of them sat relatively quietly in the donkey cart, meditating cross-legged, and occasionally talking.
Unconsciously, the two gradually became acquainted.
The pressure conditions required to generate heavy water are relatively harsh, and it also requires considerable chances, and there should be no peripheral ice field, so Sun Hao is not in a hurry.
Jian Wushuang's cultivation is very high, and the resources on the periphery of the ice field are not eye-catching, so he needs to go in some before exploring.
After the immeasurable donkey cart advanced to the front of the ice field, Sun Hao still did not move, but there was an extra cat in his arms.
At this time, the unscrupulous Daoist finally couldn't help but remind Sun Hao: "Little Hao Daoyou, with your cultivation, it is already a little difficult to walk the current ice field, but you have to do what you can. ”
Sun Hao touched the dark blue fur of the kitten in his arms, and smiled indifferently: "Thank you Dao Chang, Xiao Hao knows what to do, by the way, Dao Chang, why did the aunt chase you when they met the day before yesterday?"
The unscrupulous Taoist chief's face was slightly red: "The past is unbearable, young and crazy, young and crazy, young and crazy, ......"
Jian Wushuang smiled, and said to Sun Hao in a sincere tone: "Xiaohao Daoyou, it is better to enter the ice field with me, and take care of each other, the Taoist chief is right, there are dangers in the ice field, but don't break in." (To be continued.) )
