People moved away one after another, and when the last batch of residents passed away, the place was deserted.
Jiang Bai walked into this uninhabited town. The road that no one had walked for a long time was now covered with weeds. Some houses on both sides had already collapsed, and some buildings that were still in good condition were also densely covered with plants and cobwebs.
There are some mining tools randomly placed on the side of the road. The mining picks and bucket carts have long been corroded, and some raw ore that has not been smelted is randomly loaded in the bucket carts, and no one picks them up.
The surrounding towering mountains are full of traces of mining, and some tracks used to transport ore have long been damaged, and even occupied by monsters.
Jiang Bai walked in the town, always feeling a little gloomy.
He looked around, trying to find out the reason why the town was so gloomy, but he didn't see any ghosts.
He is also just a half-way boy who joined the Hall of Rebirth, and he doesn't know any spells to exorcise evil spirits and cross ghosts. The soul-calling banner on his back is just a billboard, which has no practical effect.
If a ghost really appeared, he would have nothing to do with it.
"Forget it, I don't have time to explore the things here, I still have to camp at the foot of the snow-capped mountain before dark. Next time I have time, I will call the hall master to come over with me, and see if there are really ghosts in this town..."
Jiang Bai rubbed his cold arms and quickened his pace.
Chapter 105 Relax
Mingyun Town is not far from Longji Snow Mountain, and you can see the appearance of the snow mountain from a distance in the town.
Jiang Bai walked along the weedy road to the direction of Longji Snow Mountain. He climbed the mountain when he encountered a mountain, and crossed the tower bridge when he encountered a river. He finally arrived at the foot of the mountain before dark.
There are few people coming and going in this area, and naturally there is no camp.
Jiang Bai looked up at the towering snow mountain in front of him, his eyes full of wonder.
This is not a simple mountain, but several mountains gathered together to form a mountain with a vast area.
Jiang Bai stood at the foot of the mountain, feeling like a little ant about to climb the mountain, very overwhelmed.
Before going up the mountain, just at the foot of the mountain, he already felt the chill on his face. The surrounding grasslands and big trees and the distance formed a gradient transition zone. The closer to the snow mountain, the more the color of the plants blended with the snow mountain. as one.
Jiang Bai took out the compass, and the pointer on it pointed at the top of the mountain at an angle of 15 degrees.
It was getting dark, and he was not in a hurry to go up the mountain.
Facing such a dangerous place that has never been to, especially a place with a harsh environment, a good visibility is very necessary.
Otherwise, instead of collecting the bones for others, he would send himself to death.
He found a leeward place, cut some dead bushes and set up a fire, preparing to boil a pot of hot water for himself.
He specially brought a large kettle that can keep warm, just to cope with the cold weather on the snow-capped mountains. In addition, he also prepared several jugs of spirits to warm his body.
The sound of burning trees crackled, and there was no other sound except the sound of flames burning, and the world was eerily quiet.
Jiang Bai fiddled with the flame with a branch, his thoughts drifted away.
When he first woke up, he had no fear in his heart, and he didn't care whether he had a traveling companion or whether he wanted to sleep in the wilderness alone.
But after staying in the Pastoral Hall for so long, and running around with Hutao every day, now that he was let out alone, he felt bored instead.
There is a feeling of being at a loss what is missing around me.
"The hall master is really, so you can rest assured that I will come out alone..."
"It seems that I am still too good, otherwise how could I be given such a difficult task?"
Jiang Bai muttered to himself, and became narcissistic when he talked.
"Oh, being too good is a crime..."
……
It is dinner time in the Hall of Rebirth.
Uncle Ge went to the restaurant with some worries. Seeing that Hu Tao was only focusing on eating and not worried about Jiang Bai who was going to Longji Snow Mountain at all, he immediately became angry.
He took away the shrimp dumpling in front of Hu Tao and snorted coldly to convey his dissatisfaction.
Hu Tao watched her favorite shrimp dumpling being taken away with grief written all over her face.
“My Shrimp Dumplings!”
"I think the Hall Master is already full, so leave this shrimp dumpling for me as a supper!"
Hu Tao pouted, her face full of grievances.
When is she full?She only ate two!
"Master, you eat so deliciously, do you still remember Jiang Bai who is blowing cold wind in the wild and can only eat cold meat pies!"
Uncle Ge fights for Jiang Bai's injustice.
Hearing what he said, Hu Tao understood what he wanted to express.
She stood up and squeezed the old man's shoulders with a smile, "How could it be? That kid is very clever, and he won't wrong himself. Maybe he killed a rabbit and roasted it outside!"
"Hmph! You asked him to go alone in such a dangerous place, at least ask a few more people to go with him!"
Who doesn't know the danger of Longji Snow Mountain?
Letting a stunned person who has never been to a snow mountain go up to the snow mountain, wouldn't that make the other party die!
"Uncle Ge, you don't know about it. It's not that I don't want people to go with him, but no one can go with him!"
Hu Tao is also very helpless for the old man who accepts the truth, so he can only open it and explain the reason to him.
"There are only three of us with the eyes of God in the Hall of Rebirth, me, Mr. Zhongli, and him. Mr. Zhongli is a guest, so naturally we can't let him run our business for us. As the hall master, I can't do everything myself! Even if the rest of the people are with him, it will add to his troubles, it is better for him to be alone!"
"He is a capable person. It would be a waste of him to be on duty every day as a ceremonial servant in our Pastoral Hall. This business is tailor-made for him. It can not only give full play to his ability, but also not let him be idle. "
Hu Tao said a series of words in one breath, and Uncle Ge knew that what she said was reasonable, and it was indeed the case.
But emotionally, I still feel that it is inappropriate and too dangerous.
"But that child doesn't know anything, he even forgot the past, it's too dangerous for you to let him go to the snow mountain alone..."
"Uncle Ge, you underestimate him! Don't look at how innocent he is in front of you, but he is actually smart! If he thinks it's too dangerous for him to handle, he definitely won't go!"
Although Hu Tao has not known Jiang Bai for a long time, but after getting along for so long, she has a little understanding of Jiang Bai.
Although that guy is a bit unprofitable, but his moral level is still online, and he never does things that he is not sure about.
Since he went, it means that he is confident to complete the task, so she is not worried at all.
When Hu Tao said this, Uncle Ge's brows loosened a little, and when she saw this, she continued to speak persistently, lest the old man worry about this and that every day.
"The nature of our business is to run around outside. Today is a snow-capped mountain, and tomorrow we may have to go to the desert. I haven't been to these places very much. I can't give him experience, and maybe it will get in the way. Maybe somewhere, Did he regain his memories when he saw the familiar scenery?"
"And he has the eyes of God, and his own strength is not bad. Even if he encounters a dangerous monster, he can escape if he can't beat it. I also specially prepared a space treasure for him. The function of the magic weapon for guiding the way is also quite perfect, just for him. It is more convenient to go out on missions!"
"Tell me, which hall master can do what I do?"
"But, it's too hard..."
"Which line of work is not hard? You cook for so many of us every day, don't you work hard?
"I took over such a large hall of death at a young age. I worry about eating and drinking for so many of you, and maintaining the balance of yin and yang. Isn't it hard for me? The boatmen at the port outside are exposed to the wind and sun every day, just to earn some money to support their families. Don't they work hard, Mora?"
Hu Tao pushed Uncle Ge to a chair and sat down, and put the shrimp dumplings he was carrying in front of his eyes.
"So, relax! He's not as vulnerable as you think."
"He'll be back in a few days, and he might have to brag to you about how many monsters he destroyed, how many ruins he discovered, and how beautifully he completed the mission!"
Chapter 106 The reappearance of the relic pattern in the snow mountain
"Ache—"
Jiang Bai, who was warming up, sneezed a lot.
"Who is talking about me? Or do I have a cold?"
Thinking of this, he quickly added a thick coat to himself.
It's okay to be nagged about, but it's not okay to catch a cold.Although I haven't gone up the mountain yet, just at the foot of the mountain can make people feel the feeling of winter.
He laid bedding for the coffin he condensed, and under the baking of the fire, even the cold stones were warm.
After the bedding was warmed up, he lay down with his clothes on and looked at the starry sky with his eyes open.
Looking at the starry sky at the foot of the snow-capped mountain is completely different from being in the Liyue mountain. The white snow on the snow-capped mountain is very conspicuous even at night under the light of the moon. In contrast, the stars far outside the universe are not so bright.
Jiang Bai changed a comfortable position and lay in the coffin, looking at the countless stars in the sky, his thoughts diverged.
If he really came from outside the world, from which star did he come?
How did he come to this continent?
How long has he been here again?
All kinds of questions linger in my mind, and no one can answer them.
After a long time, he pulled the coffin lid forward to block all the light.
These are not important, what is important is that it is time for him to sleep now.
He yawned, wrapped himself in a quilt, and fell into a deep sleep.
In the early morning, Jiang Bai, who had slept comfortably all night, kicked open the coffin lid and sat up from inside.
Although he was wearing clothes, he was still shivering from the cold air that suddenly entered the coffin.
"It's...so cold...."
He hurriedly jumped out of the coffin to move around to speed up the blood circulation throughout his body, which made it less cold.
After a brief wash with the hot water that had been heated on the fire, he ate some dry Mora meat. He changed into thicker cotton clothes and shoes, put on crampons and gloves, put out the fire and prepared to go up the mountain.
It was still early, and the sun had not yet risen, but the surroundings were already extremely bright. Some birds that were not afraid of the cold landed on the branches, chirping and combing their feathers.
Most adventurers go to and from the snow-capped mountains, taking the main road in the direction of Mond. The small road opened at some time here has long been covered with snow because no one has walked it for a long time.
Jiang Bai followed the general outline of the road, using the soul-calling flag as a walking stick while exploring in the snow while walking slowly.
I don't know how long the snow has been covered, and when I lift my feet, there is a deep pit.
The cold wind blowing from the mountains made the soul-calling flags rustle, and the words "Fushengtang" on it were faintly visible. The Sanqing bell around his waist jingled with his actions, and his boots creaked on the snow. The sound was like playing a mourning song together.
The snow field is vast, and it seems that there is only this dark figure left in the world, looking for the remains of the dead, walking forward unswervingly.
Jiang Bai held the soul-calling flag in one hand and the compass in the other, and adjusted the direction in the direction pointed by the pointer from time to time.
The snow is not easy to walk, especially this kind of road that is covered by heavy snow and the specific road cannot be seen clearly. If you don't pay attention to your feet, it is not a road, but a deep pit covered by heavy snow.
"Fortunately, I'm well prepared..."
He shakes the snow off his boots, readjusts his crampons, and feels prescient.
"It's no wonder the hall master doesn't want to come to the snow mountain. It's cold and difficult to walk. I really don't know how those adventurers who are keen to go to the snow mountain can persist in such an environment...or is it just me? Is this road particularly difficult?"
Jiang Bai thought about it seriously, and felt that the latter was very likely.
After walking for so long, he didn't see a person, a camp, or a fire, which showed that this road was not the right one.
He looked back, and there was only his footprints behind him, spreading all the way up alone.
Although the sun had long been hanging in the sky, the sunlight did not penetrate the thick clouds of the snow-capped mountains, and could not drive away a trace of chill.
Jiang Bai found a big rock, cleared off the snow on it, and sat on it to rest.
He took out the jug and took a sip of strong wine, rubbed his blushed face from the cold, and looked up into the depths of the snow-capped mountains.
When you look outside, you don’t think how big this snow mountain is, but when you are really in it, you can no longer see the mountains and lakes in the distance. There is only white snow in your field of vision, and what you can see when you look up is the sky deep into the clouds. peak.
The pointer of the Sifang Jingyi pointed upwards like a raised finger. No matter what direction Jiang Bai changed, it always pointed to the peak.
"The adventurer should have fulfilled his wish and climbed to the top of the mountain!"
If you can die after your wish is fulfilled, then your life will be considered complete.
After resting for a while, he stepped on the untrodden snow and continued to set off.
After walking up the mountain for a while, the road became wide and flat, and he could even hear the gurgling of the stream.
Walking over to see, it turned out to be a stream flowing down from the snow-capped mountains. The snow-melt ice and snow flowed down from here, and flowed into the big river of Liyue.
Jiang Bai squatted by the water and put his hand into the water. The water temperature mixed with ice cubes was icy cold. He was so cold that he quickly shook off the water stains on his hands.
"There should be quite a few streams and snow-capped mountains like this, right?"
