The Daisetsu Mountain is not called because of the snow today, but the name of the high mountains around Yunzhong County. Because of the high altitude and the harsh terrain, the mountains are covered with snow all year round, so it is called the Daisetsu Mountain.
The highest peak of the Daxue Mountains is called Daxuefeng. Not only is it covered with snow all year round, but at sunrise, it is the only one among the mountains that is bathed in the sun and appears golden.
Therefore, various local indigenous tribes and even demon tribes regard Daxue Mountain as a sacred mountain.
There have been many myths and legends here since ancient times. For example, the god believed by a certain tribe was born here, the saint of a certain tribe attained enlightenment here, and a certain god descended to earth to appear here...
There are many kinds of legends.
Although the practitioners in this world are much stronger than ordinary humans, the snowy mountains have year-round severe snowstorms, and the environment is not suitable for human survival.
Coupled with various ferocious beasts and some mysterious restricted areas in the snow mountains, many people have made pilgrimages to Daxue Peak over the years, but very few have survived.
Although the two of them have been up the mountain for a long time, they are still on the outskirts of the Snowy Mountains and cannot reach the restricted areas.
"I always feel that this place is very strange, so be careful." Yu Yanluo looked around and reminded that there were too many mysteries in the Daxue Mountains, and she did not dare to take it lightly.
Zu An comforted: "The weirdness means that we are in the right place. It seems that we are closer to the truth."
Yu Yanluo was stunned for a moment, then showed a faint smile: "You are quite optimistic."
The two chatted and searched, and finally stopped at a cave.
"They disappeared in this direction just now. It seems they should be here."
Above the snowy mountains, and in this blizzard weather, it was difficult for Zaan to find a small animal.
Fortunately, there are some shallow footprints at the entrance of the cave, so it should be right here.
Yu Yanluo also agreed with this judgment: "Be careful."
Although there was a blizzard as a cover, both Jian Taiding and Jian Taiding were smart and cunning people. There was no guarantee that they wouldn't find someone following them and ambush them inside in advance.
Zu An nodded, braced himself, and the two quietly entered the cave.
As soon as we entered the cave, the howling of the wind and snow outside disappeared. It was surprisingly quiet, as if there were two worlds inside and outside.
The stone walls around the cave are blue and white, like jade or ice.
Yu Yanluo couldn't help but shudder and hugged her shoulders tightly.
This position made it difficult for Zu An to hold his hand, so Zu An put his palm on her back, and a warm and warm feeling was injected into her body.
The blush on Yu Yanluo's face disappeared in a flash. She had just deliberately retracted her hands and hugged her chest, just because she was worried that she would catch his eye because she was afraid of the cold, so he came to hold her hand again to conduct heat.
Although the two have a good relationship, she is still not used to having physical contact with men due to the temperament she has developed over the years.
In the end, she never expected that the other party was so enthusiastic, so he put his hand on her back without holding her.
The key is that the other party has good intentions, and the back is not a sensitive and private place, so it is difficult for her to blame her.
In order to divert her embarrassment, she communicated with her vitality: "The strange coldness I felt just now must have come from here. It's strange. I have been in Yunzhong County for so many years and I have never heard of such a cave on the mountain."
"The Daxue Mountain is so big, it's normal that Madam doesn't know about it," Zu An replied in a deep voice, "This place is born with strange phenomena, most of them are weird, so be careful."
Yu Yanluo nodded slightly, and then walked in first, so that she could get away from the palm that made her blush.
Zu An hurriedly followed him, and as the two of them walked inside, the severe cold became more and more biting.
At first, Yu Yanluo wanted to stay away from Zu An, but later her long and curled eyelashes were covered with a layer of frost, and then she couldn't help but cling to him again.
Zu An couldn't help but laugh. This woman's body was quite honest.
He held the opponent's limp hand again, and the heat lost again.
Soon a blush gradually appeared on Yu Yanluo's pale cheeks, and her already beautiful face became even more charming at this moment.
At this moment, a violent coughing sound came from the distance.
Then Jian Taiding's depressed voice rang out: "Damn it, why is this place so cold!"
In fact, given his master status, he could theoretically withstand the extremely severe cold here.
It's a pity that he was seriously injured some time ago, so now he can't stand it anymore.
Zu An and Yu Yanluo's eyes lit up, it seemed they had found the right place.
"When the Duke fled all the way and had to come back here before he died, I always felt that this place was a bit weird. Second Master, please be careful." There was obvious caution in Uncle Ming's voice.
Hearing these words, Zu An's head jumped. It seemed that this was the place where Lord Yunzhong was buried. The drama he and Yu Yanluo had been playing together these days had indeed fooled them!
He looked at Yu Yanluo excitedly, but saw that her expression was gloomy, and there was a hint of sadness in her eyebrows.
Zu An then remembered that Jian Yanyou was her husband. Although it was only in name, the two had worked together for so many years and were obviously friends. Now that it was confirmed that the missing good friend was indeed dead, she naturally felt sad.
Zu An patted her hand to express comfort. Yu Yanluo came back to her senses, gathered her thoughts and continued walking forward.
After passing a long section of road that resembled a tunnel, there was an obvious opening in front of it, and there was a wide space inside. The sound came from that side.
Zu An had a headache. If he went in at this time, he would not know what was going on inside, and he would probably be discovered by Jian Taiding and his two men.
But he didn't know what was going on inside without going in. He tried to use the jade cong to summon the small animals inside, but as expected, there were no living creatures inside.
At this moment, Yu Yanluo held a crystal clear stone, which was the previous audio and video stone.
She motioned for Zu An to hide at the corner of the opening with her, and then carefully stretched out the audio and video stone.
Because the target is very small, unless the two people inside focus their attention on it, they will definitely not be able to find it.
Then she took out another audio-visual stone, which seemed to be engraved with complicated runes. After she visited the two stones with a special technique, a soft light shot out from the stone close to them, illuminating it.
On the other side of the wall.
A clear picture was displayed on the wall. There was a wide space inside, which seemed to be as big as several football fields.
Because of the light blue ice around it, the view of the entire cave is very good.
There were ice ridges several meters long hanging everywhere above the head, and from time to time a lump would fall from the sky.
Those sharp ice edges fell from a height of tens of meters. If a practitioner was caught off guard, he would probably be nailed to death on the spot.
But even if such a sharp ice spirit fell to the ground, it only caused bursts of ice flowers, and there seemed to be no damage to the ground.
The ground is a bit rugged, with jagged rocks everywhere, but there is a pool in the depths.
Above the water pool, there is a giant ice edge tens of meters long hanging vertically in the air. It is not accurate to say that it is an ice edge, because it looks like the kind of stalactites found in caves in the south.
But it's freezing here, so how could stalactites exist?
This ice edge is much harder to hit than the other ones. It has the overwhelming force of a mountain. If it falls, it will feel like the entire space will be destroyed.
But Zu An and Yu Yanluo were more curious about another thing: why is there a pool in such a cold place?
Logically speaking, it should have frozen long ago.
At this time, Jian Taiding and Uncle Ming were standing in front of the pool, staring at the pool in a daze.
"I really don't want to come here again." Jian Taiding's tone was trembling, not sure whether it was because of the cold or a guilty conscience.
"I don't want to come either," Uncle Ming was silent for a long time, "It's not like I was forced to do anything by that impostor."
"Then I'll bother you to go down there. I'm injured now, so I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand the power of this cold pool." Jian Taiding looked into the pool, obviously a little worried.
Uncle Ming hesitated a little, but still nodded and said: "Okay!"
After saying that, he made a series of preparations and jumped directly into the pool after warming up.
After a while, he jumped out with a large piece of ice sculpture in his hand. He was covered in water, and as soon as he landed, his whole body froze at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He hurriedly circulated his energy and approached the fire that had been lit for warmth. Then he came to his senses and said, "Second Master, the body of the Duke is still here. That guy is indeed a fake!"
