The years when I explored the fairyland
Chapter 321 318: Ice and Snow
Ice and snow.
Next to a snowy forest, countless snow fortresses like bunkers stood. The cold wind whistled, but it could not blow away the enthusiasm of the barbarians.
The snowy trees were piled up, and a huge bonfire was lit, and the flames illuminated half of the sky.
A barbarian killed a spirit beast similar to a yak, skinned it, removed its tendons, removed its internal organs, and then strung it with wood and grilled it on the fire.
The flames licked, and countless barbarians cheered and danced around the bonfire. Their dance was wild, vigorous, and full of vitality.
Chu Zhou could even feel that with their movements, spiritual energy was poured into their bodies. Although they rushed around, they also strengthened their physique.
This may be a unique way of cultivation in the ice and snow world.
Of course, Chu Zhou didn't have much energy to pay attention to other things at this time, because he was the guest of this bonfire banquet and sat in the chief position.
Next to him, there was a relatively thin old man with a white beard.
In places like the Ice and Snow World, food is extremely scarce. When the barbarians get old, before their fighting power declines, they either choose to die on the way to hunt or leave the tribe and fend for themselves.
This can be considered to save food for the tribe.
Of course, in most cases, the barbarians will not live to that age.
But on the other hand, an old man is still supported by the tribe, which shows that he is not simple.
This old man with gray beard is the chief witch of this tribe. He looks weak, but the power contained in his body makes Chu Zhou shocked.
What's more precious is that his eyes are extremely clear, as clear as a child's. At this time, he is pulling Chu Zhou to ask questions, like a string of cannons.
"I heard that your mountains are green, the water is blue, and the flowers are colorful. Is that true?"
"I heard that you can grow food on any piece of land there, and there is a profession called farmers who specialize in farming.
Can they all eat enough?"
"I heard that you can use silk to weave cloth and then make it into gorgeous clothes. Is that true?"
"I heard that when it's hot there, you can take off your shirt. Won't you be frozen by ice and snow?"
"I heard that the fog of the world has dissipated. As long as you go south, you can leave this world. Is that true?"
"I heard from the wind that a barbarian tribe has completed the migration and came to your world. Is that true?"
"I heard that you have a lot of..."
"I also heard that..."
The white-bearded old man seemed to have a hundred thousand questions in his head, and he had to ask Chu Zhou all kinds of questions.
At the beginning, Chu Zhou was still very patient. After all, the other party had done his best to be a good host, and he couldn't refuse the other party's face.
But the problem is, as soon as he answered a question, the white-bearded old man would ask three questions, and when he answered another question, more questions would pop up.
This series of questions really made Chu Zhou speechless and dry-mouthed!
It’s not that the white-bearded old man’s questions are difficult, on the contrary, they are all common sense.
But what he lacks most is common sense, and he can’t imagine things he hasn’t seen. Even when it comes to food, he is very curious why there are so many kinds?
What can Chu Zhou explain?
There are some things he can’t explain!
In the end, he had to say: "High Priest Yanpo, I can’t explain it clearly just by talking to you.
If you really want to understand, you might as well go and see it yourself!"
Although the white-bearded old man and Chu Zhou were talking, in fact, they were surrounded by many high-ranking members of the tribe.
Each of them was a big man with a big waist and a strong body, and his strength was almost overflowing.
Although they were watching the bonfire and dancing, they were all eavesdropping, including the barbarian sitting in the middle, who had a square face and a more sturdy body than the barbarians.
This one was the chief of this tribe, named: Avalanche!
Chu Zhou found it funny, but in this world of ice and snow, avalanches were disasters sent by the gods, enough to bury the entire tribe.
So, the name "Avalanche" was a reference to the chief's strength!
However, when Chu Zhou asked them to go and see for themselves, these people could no longer hold back.
They focused their eyes on Chu Zhou. If there was a problem with their vision, Chu Zhou could be burned.
It was the white-bearded old man who spoke, his voice trembling: "Is it really possible?"
Chu Zhou tilted his head slightly, and there was a very obvious pause, but in such a short time, the hearts of the barbarians were in their throats.
Chu Zhou looked at them and smiled, saying, "It's possible, but this road is really difficult to travel.
You are a large group migrating, men, women, old and young, all belongings have to be brought with you, I'm afraid the speed will be even slower, and some places are really difficult to travel."
After a pause, he said, "However, if you really want to migrate, I can help you.
Over there, I still have some status, and it's no problem to find you a piece of land and provide you with a batch of food and supplies."
"Are you serious?"
A rough voice sounded, like the roar of a violent bear, and even produced an echo.
Chu Zhou looked up and met Xue Beng's eyes. His expression was still calm, but he nodded seriously and said, "My promise, Chu Zhou, is counted!"
After a pause, he said, "However, the human world is not peaceful now, and there is a war with the Zhou Juetian ghost tribe in the east.
If you go, you may also be involved in the battlefield."
"Ghost tribe? The spirit of wind and snow protects us, and the ghost tribe is nothing."
Xue Beng continued: "Then when will we act?"
Chu Zhou frowned slightly, but still said: "I came here from thousands of miles away, of course I have things to do.
So, when I finish my work, I will come to help you!"
"That won't work, what if you run away?
And even if you don't run away, the snowy area is too dangerous. If you die in the hands of a powerful beast king, we don't know."
Xue Beng refused, and said: "So, you must help us complete the migration first."
Chu Zhou suddenly understood that in the system of the survival of the fittest, if you are too easy to talk to, it means you are easy to bully.
The smile on his face was completely restrained, and his expression became a little colder. He waved his hand, and a cloud of gas under his seat lifted him up and flew up.
When he was at eye level with Xue Beng, he said, "I am willing to help you, on the one hand because I have something to ask for, and on the other hand because of my kindness.
I am willing to give the people of this world a chance to live, but my kindness is not weakness."
"So, I take back what I said just now. I will not help you anymore. The life and death of your tribe has nothing to do with me."
"You dare!"
Xue Beng jumped up directly, and a big axe appeared in his hand. It was snow-white and flashed with cold metal light.
And his aura spread all over his body. Although he had no magic power, his blood and qi were as vast as the tide, and he even turned into a ferocious beast, ready to bite down.
Chu Zhou had seen the transformation of qi and mana, and Chu Zhou often used it, but the transformation of qi and blood was still a beast. Chu Zhou thought that he had opened his eyes.
However, this did not prevent him from showing his strength.
Raising his hand, the Xuanwu flag was stretched in the air, and a shadow of Xuanwu appeared between heaven and earth, raising his head and roaring, shaking the sky and the earth.
There was also a blue sea dragon emerging from Chu Zhou's body, spreading thousands of feet, ready to move.
"If you want to fight, then I will fight with you. I will kill you all, extract your souls and refine your spirits, and ask what I want to know. It seems that it is not difficult."
Seeing that they were about to fight because of a disagreement, at this time, a skinny man flew into the air.
He turned his back to Chu Zhou and faced Xue Beng, saying in the most severe tone: "Xue Beng, I said that he is a distinguished guest, a distinguished guest given to us by the Snow Region, and we need to treat him with courtesy."
"But, but he, he..."
"Sit down!"
"We just need to catch him!"
"Sit down! I won't say it for the third time!"
Xue Beng threw away the battle axe in his hand, sat down angrily, and turned his head away like a child, with a stubborn look on his face.
The white-bearded old man turned around and forced a smile at Chu Zhou: "I have read some books left over from ancient times, and I have also heard some things about your human race from the wind.
I know that your human race has its own code of conduct, and pays attention to interpersonal relationships. You help me, and I help you."
"We barbarians may be a little different. We need to fight with the sky, the earth, and the beasts to survive.
We must use all means to strengthen our tribe, just to have more food and more people alive."
"This is the difference between the cultures of the two worlds, and it is hard to say who is right or wrong!"
"You are a distinguished guest given by the Snow Region. Our tribe will do its best to help you. I just hope that when you return, don't forget your promise to us."
The white-bearded old man spoke sincerely and his eyes were sincere, which seemed very sincere.
When Chu Zhou saw him say this, his anger subsided. He waved his hand, the blue sea and blue dragon disappeared, and the black tortoise flag was taken back.
Then he said: "Since you said so, I will give you this face. However, I don't want to waste time.
Let's find a place. I have something to ask you about the world of ice and snow."
"Then let's go to my snow castle!"
"Okay, you lead the way!"
The white-bearded old man didn't waste any words. He turned around and flew to a snow castle, and Chu Zhou followed behind.
Their departure indicated the end of the conflict, but the bonfire party was not over.
After a while, cheers and dancing were heard again, accompanied by the division of food, and these barbarians were even more excited.
Just now there was a conflict and the swords were drawn, but now they have forgotten everything and are having a lot of fun.
But this is the Snowland Barbarians.
Their living environment is worse than that of the Cave Heaven Humans. There is no tomorrow after today, and no next meal after this meal. Instead, they are more free and easy and open-minded!
The so-called snow castle looks like an upside-down bowl. It is very warm with ice cubes as the building material.
The snow castle of the white-bearded old man was filled with all kinds of strange items, including the organs of spirit beasts, rare herbs, and spirit objects fished from the water...
They were all soaked in bottles and jars and placed neatly.
There was also a laboratory table with various instruments on it, and the medicines brewed there exuded a strange smell.
The great witch priest was very important in the barbarian tribe, and was in charge of sacrifices and treatments.
They could brew all kinds of complex medicines that could strengthen the body and drive away diseases, but although the medicines exuded spiritual power, Chu Zhou really didn't dare to take them.
They also knew magic, could predict and ask the sky, and had spiritual power. Whenever the tribe made important decisions, they would perform the ceremony.
Yanpo was the great witch priest of this tribe. He had lived for two hundred years, which was rare among the barbarians.
Theoretically, as the patriarch, Xue Beng had absolute authority, but they were all raised by Yanpo, so they could stop him.
There is also an inner room in the snow castle. The isolated space is not big and there is a bed, which is a little messy.
A bookshelf, on which are placed various books with texts, including stone carvings, leather carvings, and books.
Finally, there is a desk, on which are placed homemade straw paper and half-bound books.
It is also next to this desk that Chu Zhou and Yanpo sit face to face. There are also two ice bowls on the table, which contain light blue liquid.
This is snow wine, which is considered a very precious drink of the Snow Barbarians.
Chu Zhou has tasted it and found that it is icy and cool at the entrance, which is very refreshing, but when it reaches the abdomen, it spreads a heat flow that reaches the limbs and bones.
This wine actually has the effect of dredging meridians and stimulating blood, which is really good.
While tasting the snow wine, Chu Zhou listened to the high priest Yanpo talking about the things in the Snow Region.
It was also under his explanation that Chu Zhou finally had a new understanding of this world of ice and snow.
There is white hair wind in the Snow Region, which is a punishment from the gods in the sky. Regardless of day or night, egg-sized ice cubes are smashed down, accompanied by howling winds, which can destroy everything.
Even the most powerful barbarian warriors or ice and snow spirit beasts dare not challenge Baimaofeng's authority.
There are also alternations of polar day and polar night in the snowy area. Either the sun hangs in the sky and it is always daytime, or it sinks into the earth and it is always dark.
It's okay if it's a threat, but in such weather, some powerful snow beasts will appear and hunt for food.
If you encounter them, you basically can't survive.
There are also auroras in the snowy area. The sky is hung with changing colors. It looks beautiful, but it actually hides murderous intent.
Many times, you don't know how you died!
The barbarians in the snowy area are really weak. Their individual strength is not as good as those exaggerated snow beasts, and they need a lot to survive.
So, they are actually living a hard life. If they encounter any powerful snow beasts passing by, or if they are not prepared for extreme weather, the entire tribe may be gone.
This is why they are so excited when they know they can migrate out.
However, the harsh environment has tempered the barbarians' physique and spirit. Every adult barbarian is a qualified warrior and is proficient in various survival and hunting skills.
In theory, they should be relatively isolated.
But in fact, the great witch priests all master a unique technique that can communicate and exchange through the never-ending wind in the snowy area.
However, this communication is very casual and not timely.
Therefore, the great witch priest of Yanpo knows some news from the outside world, but only some.
The real masters of the snowy area are actually those snow beasts.
Although it is icy and snowy here, it is difficult for plants to survive, but under the thick ice layer, there is an endless ocean.
There are snow beasts that can break the ice and communicate between the two ecosystems, so that those snow beasts have food.
The snow beasts standing on the top of the snowy area have extremely exaggerated bodies and terrifying vitality. Their every move may cause natural disasters.
The Great Shaman of Yanpo said a lot, some about the big picture, some about the details, some about the certainty, some about the hearsay. Anyway, he told everything he knew.
And the more Chu Zhou listened, the more relieved he became.
The thing he feared the most on this trip was actually one thing, that is, the blessed land of the cave under the ice and snow had an owner!
But now, this worry can be put aside.
What he has to do is to find the core of the world, enter the cave, and then refine the core, and then he can practice the method of the fairyland.
Update first and then modify!
