The sword is the devil

Chapter 1018 Glacier Encounter
A monk sat cross-legged in a crevice of the glacier, his whole body almost integrated with the surrounding environment. He had been here for half a day. Although he really wanted to leave this dangerous place in his heart, he couldn't leave now.

He was the one who released the stone sword, and he also hid the Jianzhong Dongtian of the sword vein. He did such a big thing in exchange for a benefit.

He still doesn't know who he is dealing with. The other party is very cautious and gave him a set of stone swords, as well as the specific location of Dongtian in the Dushan Ice and Snow Sword Pavilion. He is just a tool, an insignificant middleman, someone who may Outcasts.

He himself knows this, and as long as he can achieve his goal, nothing else matters.

You can't be too far away from Dushan. If you are too far away, it will be difficult to control the various changes of the stone sword in the alien space; this set of stone sword is very magical, among other things, this kind of space ability alone is unheard of , He manipulated it very hard, there is no way to do it, the real owner of the stone sword would not do it himself in order to avoid suspicion.

This place is tens of miles away from Dushan, which is already the farthest distance he can leave under the premise of maintaining control over Shi Jian. The sword pulse is fierce, and he doesn't want any surprises.

This place is not bad, it is a place he has observed a long time ago, he will stay here at least until the end of the Dushan Grand Ceremony, if there are still no accidents, someone will come to replace him.

Complete the task, get the other party's promise, and do what you have always wanted to do.

There is no way, if you are weak, you can only take millet from the fire for others. Fortunately, this task is not a narrow escape. In his opinion, the possibility of Jianmai solving the mystery of the cave and finding him is very small. Space ability is the most important thing for a Taoist background A powerful test, in Splendid Continent, no orthodox system is qualified.

What he has to do now is to hide himself well, and pay attention to possible changes in the alien space through the stone body on his body, even if the possibility of changes is very small, the wait is over.

In a sense, the task is not difficult.

While waiting, he suddenly felt signs of biological movement on the ice layer. For the greatest safety, he did not release his consciousness, fearing that the disciples of the Sword Vessel would search, but just listened quietly.

There are few people in this place, and no creatures are willing to stay in the harsh living environment. Only the most tenacious humans will appear in any place with water and sunshine.

From being worried and nervous at the beginning, and then slowly letting go, from the sluggish footsteps, one can basically tell that this is a mortal, and it should be the few mountain people near the snow mountain. They are also the only natives here.

Through the mirror reflection of the ice layer, he found that the person walking was a young girl, wearing a thick fur, which covered her dexterous body, but she was still able to move freely on the glacier with complex terrain.

Xiaoman carried a basket on his back, and with a thick wooden stick in his hand, he kept poking on the ice in front of him. This is the experience of the locals. In this snowy land that may collapse at any time, every step needs to be cautious. Even though she has walked to this place countless times.

Her face was flushed red from the cold, and even though she was wearing thick animal skin gloves, her hands were still cracked. In order to survive, this is what she does every day. She strokes the glacier bit by bit, only In order to harvest the precious snow moss under the ice, it can only be exchanged for the living supplies of the family after being sold to merchants.

The childhood dream has long been crushed by reality, and now she has almost completely forgotten her previous wish, struggling alone under the pressure of life.

It's not that Dushan Jianmai didn't keep his promise, but that practice is not something everyone can participate in. Since she was ten years old, Jianmai has been admitted to the Daoqian School at the foot of the mountain, and all of them are children of the nearby mountain people. , but after so many years, no more than ten children out of a hundred and ten can feel Qi, and none of them can truly enter the Tao and build a foundation. This is the cruel reality.

The Mountain People School will not drive them away just because they are old. As long as you want, you can continue to study, but the natural pride and stubborn character of the mountain people make them unable to do such things. The family has to support, how can it be possible to be an old child all the time?
Xiaoman stayed in the school for six years. Like most children, she got nothing. After she turned 16, she resolutely left.

In the past two years, she has returned to the standard mountain dweller, and forced herself to forget her dreams. A dream is a dream, and there is always a moment when she wakes up.

This glacier is very large, and the ice crevasses inside are vertical and horizontal. Just under the ice crevices, there is the main source of income for the mountain people, a precious herbal medicine, snow moss.

Every family here will pick snow moss, and wait for merchants to come to buy it, in exchange for essential necessities of survival such as daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, iron, porcelain, tea and sugar.The former merchants were very unscrupulous, but since the arrival of the sword cultivators, they have rectified a lot. Now the price is more reasonable, and the life of the mountain people is much easier.

Gradually getting older, six years of study has also made her understand a lot of truths, knowing that things like this can only be blamed for not having a chance, and it is destined by God.

But it is precisely because she has learned a lot that she is more and more dissatisfied with staying in this bitter cold place. She wants to go out. Even if she cannot practice, there are many ways to change the living conditions of the whole family.

She is now looking for snowmoss day and night every day, just to accumulate some capital as soon as possible, and to persuade her parents who are hard to leave their homeland.

There is another ice crevasse in front, which is relatively deep and has a complicated internal structure. This kind of terrain has certain dangers, but it often means that there will be more snow moss.She is still young, not afraid of danger, and has learned a lot of basic martial arts in six years, so she is full of confidence in herself.

I found a solid ice surface and laid piles, and then set the rope skillfully, and then laid auxiliary piles in another location. As a senior ice and snow mountain dweller, these are the survival skills handed down from generation to generation.

Then, slide down the ice crevasse along the rope, control your body with an ice chisel, and slowly descend to the bottom; looking up, you can see more than a dozen places with snowy moss as green as jade, exuding a tempting fragrance, but this is just a part of the ice crevice. Just a little bit.

I am in a good mood, today must be a good harvest day, so I shovel off the snow moss along the way, and carefully put it into the rattan basket behind me.

Snow Tessbi was more than she imagined. She walked and shoveled all the way, slowly walking farther and farther, and gradually lost her observation of the surrounding environment. There are no fierce animals in the glacier, and insects and boars cannot survive at such a low temperature. Survival, the most dangerous thing here is the environment, as long as there is no snowstorm, everything will be fine.

When turning a corner, a strong force surged forward, and he rushed forward involuntarily.

what is itXiao Man was completely unprepared physically and mentally.
