Monument of Life and Death

  Chapter 1106 Black Ice

  ***

   "Xiaolan! Xiaolan!..."

   A group of people shook Xiaolan's shoulders vigorously. After a few minutes, they finally accepted the reality.

  Xiao Lan fell asleep again.

   "Why is it now?" Qin Yin moved Xiao Lan's head to her lap to prevent the child from waking up with neck pain, "Xiao Lan has been sleeping very suddenly recently."

   "Indeed," Yi Yao said, "Xiao Lan did the same thing when she was with me...and she also said that she dreamed about our Yi Nian ancestor."

   Several people looked at Yi Yao.

   "The ancestor of Yi Nian?" Li Muyuan said, "Isn't that just Yi Nian..."

   "Yes, it's Yi Nian herself," Yi Yao said, "She also said... the ancestors said some strange things to her."

  The Taoist priest sat upright and asked, "For example?"

   "For example...he said he believed that Xiaolan could do it," Yi Yao said truthfully, "but he didn't say what it was, so Xiaolan was also at a loss...do you have any ideas?"

  Qin Yin shrugged and said, "You don't have any ideas, so what ideas can we have?"

   "After all, you are familiar with Xiaolan," Yi Yao smiled and said, "How about your understanding of Xiaolan?"

   Daoist and Qin Yin glanced at each other, Daoist looked away, and Qin Yin said, "But our understanding of Xiaolan is also very limited."

   "How could it be?" Yi Yao tilted his head slightly, looking very surprised, "Haven't you been together for a long time?"

   "It's been a long time...it's been a long time," Qin Yin looked into the distance, "but that doesn't mean... eh? What's over there?"

   Everyone looked in the direction of Qin Yin's finger.

  In the distance is the lake water in the dark, slightly glowing. In the middle of the black and purple, a few small black spots appear.

   Not too big or too small, just enough to be caught by their sight.

   "They are approaching," Luo Jiutian frowned and said, "They are approaching us."

   "I have a bad feeling..." Qin Yin helped Xiaolan up, "It doesn't look like a good thing..."

  The Taoist priest narrowed his eyes and looked carefully for a while, then shook his head and said, "There are too many, no matter whether it is a good thing or not, we have to avoid it."

   "If it is an enemy, we will be very passive." Li Muyuan agreed.

   "In this case, let's run away." Qin Yin said.

  Qin Yin put Xiao Lan on Luo Jiutian's back, and patted Luo Jiutian's back like a mule.

  Luo Jiutian hesitated for a few seconds, the Taoist stared at him, knowing that he was thinking of Lao Luo and Senior Brother Zhuge.

  He was worried that the two were still around here, and if they left, there might be no chance of meeting again.

   "When we return to our world, everything will return to normal," Dao Zhang said lightly, "Jiu Tian, ​​let's go first."

  Luo Jiutian's pupils trembled for a moment, he pursed his lips and let out a quiet "hmm" without any other reaction, but silently stood beside the Taoist priest, standing with them.

   Jiutian grew up little by little.

The Taoist priest took out a talisman from his chest. The talisman was soaked in water and became wet. The cinnabar and red letters on the yellow talisman paper became blurred. Just when everyone was worried about whether the talisman could still be used, the Taoist priest said He recited the spell silently, and threw the spell to the surface of the water with his hands.

The talisman flew and spun in mid-air, and fell to the surface of the water in an instant. The talisman touched the water surface lightly, and the talisman suddenly ignited, and a small ripple appeared on the water surface. In the next second, the flames and water waves all disappeared. Creaking sounds echoed in the ears of several people.

  Qin Yin stared wide-eyed and looked around.

  The water surface that was swimming gently just now has turned into a hard ice rink, and the ripples just now are frozen on the calm ice surface, like a black ice flower.

   "It's something I haven't seen before," Qin Yin said, "Master Dao, how many surprises do you have that we don't know?"

  The Taoist leader didn't bother to talk to Qin Yin, he grabbed Yi Yao and walked towards the ice with him.

   "Don't come here yet," the Taoist priest stepped on the ice a few times, and said, "Mr. Yi and I are relatively heavy, we have tested it before you come."

  After the two stepped on it several times, the ice surface remained motionless.

   "It's almost there, it should be solid," Li Muyuan turned his head and said, "Let's go, those things are coming soon."

   "It looks like people," Yi Yao said, "There are many, many people."

   "Could it be the weirdos who chased us in that world just now, and they came after us?" Luo Jiutian said.

   "What strange person?" Qin Yin blinked.

   "It's a long story," Daochang waved his right arm and walked in the front to lead the charge. "Let's go first, hurry up, the ice has a limited time to freeze, and we have to reach the next piece of land before it melts."

  ***

  Xiaolan saw...

Mountain.

  Open your eyes, it's full of green.

  Xiaolan lay on the wet ground, smelling the humid air constantly pouring into her nasal cavity, and almost instantly recalled this familiar feeling.

   I have been here myself.

  Xiaolan jumped up from the ground and looked around in a daze.

  Trees, grass green, quiet and serene...

  Xiao Lan stood up abruptly and started running in one direction.

  I saw this place in my dream.

   This is the forest!

   This is where the boundary marker is!

  Xiaolan was running, completely ignoring why she fell asleep at this time.

  She only remembers that ahead, at the foot of a deep and green mountain, stands her greatest obsession—the boundary marker.

  Xiao Lan frantically ran to the highest point of a hill, she stood on the highest point, looking around.

  Is it front or back?

  Xiaolan was panting, sweating profusely, anxious.

  Remember quickly.

hurry up!

   "You want to know."

  A man's voice suddenly sounded behind her, Xiaolan exclaimed, slipped her foot, and sat down on the ground.

  Xiaolan stepped back, stood up in embarrassment, and looked at the people behind her.

  Thin but tall and straight, it was an equally familiar figure.

   "Bridge... Bridge?" Xiaolan leaned against a thick old tree, staring at the person in front of her in shock, "Why are you? Why are you here?"

  Qiao smiled and shook his head, "I don't know where I am, only you know."

   "What do you mean?" Xiaolan's breathing gradually calmed down.

   "It means that I just entered your consciousness, but I don't know where your consciousness is," Qiao said, and looked around, "Well... Judging by your reaction, this place should be unusual."

   "You...why can you enter my consciousness?" Xiaolan immediately became defensive, "Have you got my consent? Just..."

   "Your companions asked me to come to you," Qiao didn't interrupt Xiaolan, "If you don't want to, forget it, then I'm leaving..."
