Chapter 178 Is this a cold-faced and warm-hearted thing?
Seeing that Shen He left, Jiang Bai returned to where the group of treasure thieves were and looked at the ice sculptures with some curiosity.
These members of the treasure thief group who were frozen into ice sculptures had obviously not lost consciousness yet. They looked at Jiang Bai cautiously and followed Jiang Bai's movements with their eyes.
They couldn't speak, and naturally they couldn't ask Jiang Bai for help. They could only show pitiful eyes and try to impress Jiang Bai.
Jiang Bai is not a kind person, how could he let these people out just because of a few pitiful looks.
Although I don’t know what they did, these people really offended Shen He.
Why would he risk offending Shen He to save these people?
He was just curious and came over to take a look.
Seeing that these people's eyes could still move after being frozen, Jiang Bai curiously poked the ice with his finger. It was cool and it was indeed ice.
This magic is really magical, it can freeze people but still keep their consciousness.
These people must have learned a lesson from being frozen here for a day.
Seeing that the treasure thieves were indeed frozen, Jiang Bai went to search their camp to see if he could find anything valuable.
However, these people were so poor that he only found half a processed rabbit leg.
The other half is roasting on the fire.
"Hey, why are you so poor?"
In the shocked eyes of the treasure thieves, Jiang Bai took away the food they were about to bake - half a rabbit leg on the grill.
While chewing on the rabbit legs and complaining about the bad taste, Jiang Bai found an anchor point and teleported from Jueyunjian to the Seven-Sky God Statue near Qingyunding.
This seven-day statue is located on a large floating stone. It floats in the sky and is not connected to the ground. I think Jiang Bai spent a lot of time on this statue when he first started.
Standing at the statue, he looked into the distance. The high Qingyun Peak pierced the clouds, and there was a faint anchor point at the top of the peak.
"It's much more convenient to have an anchor point."
He took off from the position of the statue and flew towards the anchor point.
Shen He also arrived at the location of Qingyunding at this time, planning to find a place to practice nearby, and secretly watch over Jiang Bai who was coming here to prevent him from accidentally slipping and falling to death here.
She didn't have any feelings for Jiang Bai, she just felt that the thought of preparing gifts for the people he valued was rare and valuable, so she would help him out if she could.
But Jiang Bai's appearance in the sky at this time is really surprising.
You know, even if she possesses immortal magic, it still takes time to travel.
This Jiang Bai, why is he so fast?
Jiang Bai didn't know that Shen He was watching him. He landed on the rocks at Qingyunding and climbed up bit by bit.
There are so many peaks in Liyue, especially peaks like this that stand like sharp swords in the sea of clouds. Below you can see the endless sea of clouds, and the height difference is unknown. It is difficult for ordinary people to have the courage to climb.
Jiang Bai grabbed hold of the protruding rocks and climbed up bit by bit. This behavior without any safety measures made the onlookers sweat in their hearts.
Shen He appeared on the cliff on a branch of a pine tree that was rooted in the rocks and grew slanted. He pointed his finger in one direction and his tone was still cold and indifferent.
"There is a road next to it and you can go up directly."
Seeing Shen He suddenly appear, Jiang Bai was stunned for a moment.
Why did she appear here? And why did she come out to remind him?
Is this the legendary cold-faced and warm-hearted thing?
"I really do not know."
Jiang Bai climbed up to a small platform where he could stand, took a breath, and looked in the direction pointed by Shen He. Sure enough, there was a uneven road over there, like steps.
Without hesitation, Jiang Bai moved directly in the direction of the road, and then he breathed a sigh of relief when he stood on the steps.
Each step of this staircase is very spacious, and it is carved with auspicious clouds. It does not look like it was built by man, but it looks like it was made by immortals using immortal methods.
Jiang Bai just wanted to thank Shen He, but when he turned around, she had disappeared.
"You really have character, you come in a hurry and you go in a hurry"
After muttering, Jiang Bai ignored it and continued walking up.
The hall master's birthday is just a few days away, and it will take time to bring the hall master here. If he doesn't open the road before the sun goes down today, then the plan will be cancelled.
This mechanism needs to be opened under the shining of the sun, moon and stars. That is to say, the sun sets in the evening and the moon just appears during this time period. If you miss it, you can only wait until tomorrow.
After climbing to the top of the mountain and turning on the anchor point, Jiang Bai was truly standing on the sea of clouds.
Standing here, the mountains and rivers in the distance are like ink paintings of thick and light colors, and the three stone cranes needed to open the mechanism also come into view.
Jiang Bai unfolded his wings of wind and flew towards a stone peak. After adjusting the angle of the crane, he flew back and slowly climbed up, then continued flying towards the next mountain peak, and so on.
In the era before the Wings of Wind appeared, those who wanted to seek immortality could only risk their lives by climbing one peak after another.
Jiang Bai's method is just like cheating.
Shen He stood in the dark, silently watching Jiang Bai climb up one mountain and then rush to the next one without stopping.
His whole body was wet with sweat, but the expression on his face was excited, and the light in his eyes was even more dazzling than the sun.
Shen He tilted his head, feeling strange.
For a mortal, it was obviously such a dangerous thing, so why was he so happy?
Is it because you feel you are doing something meaningful?
But what is meaningful?
The red rope that bound her trembled a little, which was the roar of some kind of emotion.
As evening approached, Jiang Bai, who was covered in sweat, finally adjusted the positions of the three cranes, waiting for the sun, moon and stars to arrive and shine on them, opening the way to the sky.
He didn't have to wait too long. The sun moved down little by little and became no longer so dazzling and bright.
In the opposite direction to the sun, a new moon appeared quietly, and together with it, there were stars that were not bright but were always present in the sky.
Under Jiang Bai's expectant gaze, strong wind surged out from under his feet, seeming to take him flying into the sky.
He spread his wings of wind and rose into the sky under the influence of the wind field. The steps made of floating stones slowly emerged in the clouds.
He landed on the stone steps and walked up the floating stones step by step. A huge flat land completely made of floating stones appeared in front of him.
This is not just a platform, the ground is paved with bricks and stones, and a huge pavilion is built in the center of this floating stone.
Normally, the wind on the top of the mountain should be very strong, howling, and won't stop until it blows people over.
But when we reach the top, the mountain wind calms down, as if it is wrapped in an invisible barrier, because the cold brought by the fierce mountain wind disappears without a trace.
There is also a large box placed in the pavilion, which shines with golden light under the setting sun.
