At this time, it was more than two months before the martial arts conference was held. Su Can and Zhong Xiaoyu wanted to go back to the Qingyu Snowfield to pick out a hundred people and practice the joint attack. Now that there is hope of getting the spiritual source, they have to use the paper crane to notify Chi Yunkong and other leaders, and ask them to negotiate and select the strongest disciples in each hall to practice together.
Riding on the Xiaolong horse, Su Can asked Zhong Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyuer, the two old men smiled strangely when they assigned tasks just now. Have you noticed it?"
Zhong Xiaoyu said: "No, I'm just memorizing the locations of those two places and not paying attention to how they are laughing. What's wrong? What's the problem?"
Su Can thought, "With grandpa's temperament, he will not let us easily obtain spiritual sources. I doubt there must be something strange there, and we must act carefully later."
Zhong Xiaoyu said obediently: "Well, I will listen to you. I don't have to think about anything with you, hehe."
Su Can used his chin to ring Zhong Xiaoyu's head and smiled and said, "Little lazy fish, if I could breathe on your behalf, are you too lazy to even inhale?"
Zhong Xiaoyu turned his head to look at Su Can and said, "Yes, yes, you should breathe for me, ah! Woo--"
The sound of whimper came, but Su Can looked at her tender red lips and couldn't help but feel in love. She sealed her lips, which really helped Xiaoyuer breathe.
The King of Dragon Horse seemed to have noticed nothing, and was galloping on the empty forest path. With the little dragon horses there, they naturally took the shortcut to Qifeng City.
Qifeng City is the first place they went to, a small town with a population of only more than 10,000. However, in the past six hundred years, people have been more willing to call it the Ice City.
This is where Zhong Xiaoyu’s target spiritual source is. As an ice-snow enlightener, she can advance to both the ice-type spiritual source and the snow-type spiritual source. However, the hinterland of the Hidden Kingdom will only fall in winter, so the target this time is an ice-type spiritual source.
One day six hundred years ago, heavy rain suddenly fell in Qifeng City. After three days and three nights, Qifeng City almost turned into a marina. The water was so strong that there were many casualties and injuries in Qifeng City, regardless of people and animals.
What's even more terrifying is that three days later, the temperature dropped sharply, and Zeguo directly turned into an ice city. Unexpectedly, the number of people who died of frozen death was directly accounted for 20 to 300 people.
After the natural disaster, there was a lot of sadness in Qifeng City, and the environment here was no longer enough to make people survive comfortably.
Most people in Qifengcheng buried their dead relatives, and then moved their families out of the small town to find another suitable place to live. Only some people who are unable to leave their hometowns still live in the city.
In the end, there were only a few thousand people left in the small town with a population of 100,000, and half of the thousands were elderly people who were reluctant to leave their hometowns and would rather die in the city. Among these people, none of them knew why Qifeng City had become an ice city, and hundreds of years have passed and it still did not melt.
After Qifeng City became an Ice City, there is only one advantage left, that is, if the remaining people have no diseases or abnormal injuries, they will live from the original age of 100 to 600 and still remain undead. Therefore, after Qifeng City has reproduced for six hundred years, the number of people is close to 10,000.
I heard that after this effect, some nearby people who were greedy and afraid of death came to Ice City before they died, trying to prolong their life, but they could only die faster. Because if the temperature here was not for a long time, it would be difficult for ordinary people to live in, let alone those who were sick for a long time and weak.
Later people discovered that only those who could temporarily "live" were the natives who remained in the ice city after the catastrophe. Others, even those who moved away and returned, would die on the day when their destiny came, without any mistakes.
This seems to be the praise of the "loyal" people from Ice City.
Qifeng City is about 300 miles away from Luocheng. It takes only half a day to get here with the foot of the little dragon horse.
"It's really cold." Su Can said after entering the city. Before entering the city gate, there was still a bright sun outside, and it was warm, but when he walked into the city gate, Su Can shivered. This ghost place was actually three points colder than the Qingyu Snow Field.
Most of the Qingyu Snow Field can be described as cold, but Qifeng Bingcheng can only be described as "frozen". If it were not for the body of enlightened people, Su Can would have almost no way to gain a foothold here in a thin shirt.
The house layout here is exactly the same as other towns in Yin Kingdom. The difference is that all houses are covered with a thick layer of ice all year round, which is worthy of the name of the Ice City.
There are few pedestrians on the street, everyone is wearing bloated cotton clothes, walking slowly, like a fat zombie. Only after seeing a stranger entering the city did they have a more agile vision, looking at the two thin young men with a strange expression.
"Hehe, come and chase me!"
"Xiaohu, run slower, and if you run faster, you won't play with you."
A pair of childhood men and women wearing thick cotton coats chased and played on the street, almost hitting the front hoof of the dragon horse. Fortunately, Long'er was already human, so he jumped up and jumped directly over the heads of the two people to avoid a disaster.
The two children were frightened and did not dare to move. Fortunately, Zhong Xiaoyu was gentle and charming, and after a while, they burst into tears and laughed. Eating the exquisite pastries in their hands, "sister and sister" kept calling.
"Xiaohu and Xiaoyan, who do you know where Tianshengtang is?" Zhong Xiaoyu asked with a smile.
"I know!"
"I know too!"
Xiaohu and Xiaoyan answered one after another, their hands that were so cold that they were still raised high.
Zhong Xiaoyu warmed their two pairs of hands with his hands, and then said, "So good, since you all know, can you take us to Tianshengtang?"
"Okay, okay, sister, come with me." The two of them said as they ran towards the direction they had just returned, and Su Can and Zhong Xiaoyu followed closely behind them.
Tianshengtang is a medical clinic opened by Tiansheng disciples. No matter where the city is located, it is called Tianshengtang. Tianshengtang determines the number of Chinese medicine practitioners in the hall based on the number of people around. There are only two people in Tianshengtang here, one master and one apprentice. The master is a disciple of Tianshengtang, named Jishan. However, the apprentice is a young native of the city and is called Xiaodao by his parents.
"Brother Xiaodao, this beautiful sister is here to find Master Dashan. Is he at home?" Xiaoyan asked the busy boy in the hall with a slight voice.
"No, Master has gone to the Li family in the south of the city to see a doctor. I don't know when I will come back." Xiaodao turned his back to the door, and was sorting a large pile of dried herbs on the ground into dense medicinal boxes. He shouted without looking back after hearing the question.
"Okay, Xiaohu and Xiaoyan go home first, just wait for brother and sister here." Zhong Xiaoyu persuaded the two little guys to leave, and told them to go home quickly, be careful on the way, and then sat in Tianshengtang with Su Can and waited for Jishan to come back.
Xiaodao is not very old, but he is familiar with various herbs. He is extremely skillful in sorting and looks pleasing to the eye.
While Su Can and Zhong Xiaoyu were enjoying it, they suddenly had a sound of their ears, then quickly left the wooden chair, came to the front of the medicine cabinet, and used their spiritual power to protect the knife and the medicine cabinet that had just been sorted behind.
With a bang, the wooden door that was only half opened was kicked to pieces by one foot. A burly man rushed in with a cold air and shouted loudly: "Is the doctor here or not? Hurry up and grab me a pair of cold-relieving medicinal materials. This ghost place is almost frozen to death."
