Chapter 396 Going up the mountain

"This is flint."

Ignoring Tuoba Lie's teasing, Hang Jingyi appeared at the door at some point, seemingly holding two bulging bundles in his hands, and explained lightly: "This is made from crystals tempered from volcanic lava.

, it maintains the same temperature all year round and is just right for use now.”

"Boring."

Listening to Hang Jingyi's serious explanation, Tuoba Lie curled his lips and turned to look at Xi.

Only Su Jiu and Hang Jingyi are left.

In the palm of her hand, the volcanic crystal was glowing, and her whole body seemed to be warming up. Su Jiu unconsciously remembered that she seemed to be holding Hang Jingyi's hand last night.

Su Jiu lowered her eyes, her face was a little red, and she didn't dare to look at Hang Jingyi for some reason. She glanced at the baggage in his hand and immediately changed the subject, "What is this?"

"Rope and some things you might need in the mountains."

Hang Jingyi didn't sleep last night and meditated all night.

Lao Sang woke up before dawn. This was something Hang Jingyi prepared after consulting Lao Sang.

"Then when will we set off?" Su Jiu asked.

"There's no rush, let's go out for breakfast first, and we'll discuss it after we're full."

"good."

Su Jiu quickly got out of bed, washed briefly, and then came to the main room.

The food is almost exactly the same as yesterday, simple and rough, but it really fights hunger.

After eating, the sun has risen very high, and the temperature has gradually become higher. There was a strong wind last night, and there was even a little snow.

I opened the door and looked up at the mountain. It was white and very beautiful. However, the snow was not thick, and I could still see exposed black and gray rocks with sharp edges and corners.

"Jiu'er, be careful all the way!"

Tuoba Lie looked at Su Jiu, with worry that could not be hidden in his strange eyes. These days, he had made jokes and enlivened the atmosphere, but in the end he was still uneasy. He turned to look at Hang Jingyi and tried to ask: "Mr. Hang, what else?

I'll go and let Jiu'er stay here and look after Xiao."

Although Tuoba Lie has been a little happy and reluctant to miss Shu these years with his beloved by his side, he still hasn't forgotten his skills in boxing and kicking, and he practices martial arts every day.

"Brother Tuoba, don't worry! Don't worry, we will definitely be able to bring brother Zhen's heart and soul back."

Su Jiu pushed Tuoba Lie into the house. It wasn't a matter of life and death. Why was it so sensational?

It was cold on the mountain, and the clothes Tuoba Lie prepared for Su Jiu were all thick and bright. Su Jiu looked a little more honest and honest in them. He and Tuoba Lie kept quarreling with each other, her face turned red.

Very cute.

"Jiu'er."

Hang Jingyi called her and stretched out a hand to her.

Su Jiu was confused.

Then she realized what she was doing, raised her hand and put it into his palm. She didn't know if it was because he gave her the volcanic crystal, but Hang Jingyi's palm felt cold.

Su Jiu subconsciously held him back, as if she wanted to transfer her warmth to him through her palms.

This is a very natural and unthinking action.

After Su Jiu finished, she realized that her action seemed a little bit ambiguous, but before she could react, Hang Jingyi had already walked up the mountain, as if it was just an ordinary action.

.

This reaction actually made Su Jiu a little unhappy. This man was so skillful in his movements, so he probably didn't often shake girls' hands, right?

Su Jiu followed behind and didn't see the slight curve of the corners of Hang Jingyi's lips.

There is a rope tied around the waists of both of them to prevent accidents and the two of them accidentally getting separated. A two-meter-long rope not only ensures that each can move flexibly, but also ensures that they will not get lost.

The two walked in tandem for about an hour.

Suddenly there was light snow in the sky. At first glance, the mountain was so white that it was hard to tell where it was. The road up the mountain was covered with snow.

The altitude also gradually increased, making people a little breathless.

The two found a rock to sit down, rested briefly, ate something, and then continued their journey.

Hang Jingyi could feel the remaining breath of the man in black robe.

The two continued walking for several kilometers before Hang Jingyi and Su Jiu stopped in front of a cave that was almost covered with snow.

The temperature was extremely low at this time, and Su Jiu felt it hurt to breathe, but fortunately, with the volcanic crystal next to her, it wasn't so cold.

If Hang Jingyi hadn't led the way, the cave in front of us would have been easily overlooked.

After briefly clearing the snow in front of the cave entrance, the entire cave scene finally emerged.

The hole seemed very deep and there was no peculiar smell, indicating that no wild beast had lived in it.

The cave is very high, about three meters high, and the entrance is low, but once you walk in, you will feel like you are suddenly enlightened.

The hole looked very deep, and it was so dark inside that you couldn't see anything at all.

The two of them were not in a hurry to go deep, but lit a fire stick at the entrance of the cave and then used the fire stick to light a torch.

The appearance of light always gives people an infinite sense of security.

Su Jiu exhaled a breath of white air and handed the torch to Hang Jingyi.

Hang Jingyi glanced at Su Jiu's little face that was red from the cold, her lips were slightly hooked, and her eyes were full of doting.

He took the torch and walked in front first.

As they went deeper, the entire cave gradually appeared before their eyes.

Stalactites of various shapes hang at the top of the cave, but these have been frozen into ice picks hanging at the top, looking crystal clear.

As we walked deeper and deeper into the cave, the temperature gradually climbed up, and it was not as cold as before.

This looks like an ordinary cave.

Just when Su Jiu was wondering, Hang Jingyi, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.
