Hutao uses me to judge my performance

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 is ignorant. 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!"

It’s really cold in winter!

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.

"No wonder the hall master doesn't want to come to the snow-capped mountains. The road is cold and difficult to walk. I really don't know how those adventurers who are keen to go to the snow-capped mountains persist in such an environment. Or is it the road I take that is particularly difficult? Walk?"

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?"

Such a big snow-capped mountain, I don't know how many rivers have merged into it.

Walking up the stream, he saw many dilapidated buildings. These buildings could no longer tell what their original function was, only broken stone walls and toppled stone pillars remained.

Only the bases of these stone pillars remain, but even the bases are carved with patterns, which are the crystallization of time and wisdom.

Jiang Bai leaned over curiously, cleaned up the snow and ice covered on the stone pillars, and carefully observed the patterns on the stone pillars.

These patterns are very similar to the patterns on the broken ruins on the Guyun Pavilion, and are even exactly the same in the composition of a certain symbol.

The more he looked, the more confused Jiang Bai became.

He has already determined that the ruins of Guyun Pavilion come from the people of the demon god who were suppressed down there. How come there are the same architectural ruins in the snow-capped mountains?

Could it be that the birthplace of those people is the snow mountain?It was only later that they moved to Guyun Pavilion, so Guyun Pavilion has similar architectural patterns?

Or do these patterns not represent the people of the demon god suppressed by Guyun Pavilion, but represent a certain civilization and ethnic group?

There is too little information, and Jiang Bai can't figure it out. He temporarily put this question on hold and continues to go up.

The more you go up, the more remains of ancient buildings, and you can even see some small settlements composed of Qiuqiu people.

Because of the environment of the snow-capped mountains, these Qiuqiu people living in the snow-capped mountains have also purified the corresponding characteristics of the snow-capped mountains. Their hair has evolved into white, which can help them hide better in the snow.

Chapter 107 The Shadow Behind the Mask

These Qiuqiu people, who had lived in the snow-capped mountains for an unknown amount of time, were not afraid of the cold, and they didn't have the habit of using clothes to keep warm except for some cloth to cover their key parts.

Jiang Bai hid behind the stone and looked at these Qiuqiu people who were dancing, sleeping, or making snowmen, and suddenly became curious.

Since these white Qiuqiu people are not afraid of the cold, if they are placed in a hot environment, will they be afraid of the heat?

Or are you not afraid of cold or heat?

Jiang Bai quickly stopped his extra curiosity, now is not the time to study whether Qiuqiu people are afraid of the cold.

The perception of these Qiuqiu people is not strong, he moved his wrist, used his reasoning, and rushed towards the group of Qiuqiu people blocking the way.

He didn't want to bully these Qiuqiu people, but they blocked his only way, so he had to send them back to the west!

Priest Qiuqiu was still dancing around the fire, and he didn't find an enemy lurking nearby at all. The other Qiuqiu people were also doing their own things, and they didn't find Jiang Bai's existence at all.

When they found out that Jiang Bai was coming, they hurriedly picked up their weapons, and their priests had already died.

Jiang Bai treated these Qiuqiu people equally, and sent them to see God one by one.

May there be no Jiang Bai in heaven, Amen!

After easily finishing off a group of Qiuqiu people, Jiang Bai felt refreshed.

But looking at the Qiuqiu people who fell to the ground, the curiosity in Jiang Bai's heart rose again.

What do these Qiuqiu people look like under their masks?

He walked up to a dead Qiuqiu and squatted down, curiously lifted its mask.

Because these masks have not been lifted for a long time, they have grown into one body with the body, and it is difficult for Jiang Bai to lift them.

Under the mask is a face that doesn't look like a human. The skin is bruised and purple, with weird lines on it, and thin and dense fluff, which makes people get goosebumps at a glance.

Those eyes are still within the normal range, and the two eyes are in the position where they should be, but there is no white, they are black, and they are inexplicably weird.

Its nose is short and small, a bit like a pig's nose, and its mouth is just under the mask, which does not hinder eating even if it is wearing a mask.

Generally speaking, it is the face that will scare and cry children.

I don't know why these Qiuqiu people wear masks. Do they feel terrible when they see their own faces?

It seems that all the Qiuqiu people he has seen so far, whether they are in Liyue territory or Snow Mountain territory, no matter big or small, whether they are priests or ordinary Qiuqiu people, all wear masks.

Is this similar behavior a racial characteristic?

From blood?From group consciousness?

Jiang Bai picked up the crossbow machine used by these Qiuqiu people. This crossbow machine looks simple, but in fact the parts are quite sophisticated. Even children who don't understand anything can use it directly.

"These crossbows were made by these Qiuqiu people?"

There are very obvious forging marks on it, the kind of steel that is uniformly press-fitted by a lathe is made and assembled, as if produced by a human factory.

It's just that why are the crossbows produced by humans in the hands of the Qiuqiu people?

Not only the Qiuqiu people here can use this, but the Qiuqiu people in Liyue Mountain can also use crossbows. They can also shoot arrows of different elements. Although they are not accurate enough, they can also cause a lot of trouble to people.

This can't possibly also come from the commonality of the group, right?
