Chapter 8 The Wilderness
After the matter in the village was finished, the group continued to move forward until the foot of Mount Meng.
Compared with Miyun Mountain and Xifeng Mountain in the surrounding area, Mengshan is neither towering nor majestic, and is more like a hint of wrinkle on the corners of the vast Central Plains.
But it was this wrinkle that blocked the cold wind blowing from the grassland and drove straight into the Huailuo Plain, providing a line of barriers for thousands of miles of fertile soil.
Mengshan is not steep. Not to mention people with cultivation like Zhao Xifeng, even ordinary herb collectors with better health are in and out. However, it will not be easy for anyone to pull a carriage of more than 2,000 kilograms up the mountain.
On this day, when Zhao Xifeng and others came to the foot of the mountain, the first winter snow in the four northwestern provinces of the Great Zhou Dynasty this year arrived as scheduled.
There are mountains and snow in front of you, which makes people sigh at the difficulty of walking.
But Zhao Xifeng, who was pulling the cart, didn't even look up at Mengshan, and just started his mountaineering journey as if he was walking on the official road.
On the other side of the mountain, there is his father.
The snowflakes gradually became heavy into goose feathers and heavy snow, and the mountain winds were roaring all the way, making it increasingly difficult to rush on the road. It was in this situation that everyone saw Zhao Xifeng's true strength for the first time.
I saw his true energy circulating with all his strength. The Nine Changes of Lingshan switched randomly according to different terrain and paths. A body baptized by the star tide emitted an invisible silver light in the reflection of the snow. He actually pulled a fine iron carriage, walking on flat ground in the mountain road, and some places without roads, he took the carriage effortlessly and jumped with his carriage!
Finally, when Zhao Xifeng soared three feet into the air and let the carriage leap across the landslide section, Gu Qingyuan sighed: "In terms of the depth of Yuan Ling and the strength of his body, I am not as far away as Xifeng."
Dong Erpang hummed for a long time, but didn't say a word, and hummed to express his approval.
Halfway through the mountain road, he could only barely allow a car to pass. Seeing that the front half was about two people passing by side, Zhao Xifeng's stubborn spirit also came up. He turned to the left and pulled the carriage straight up the ridge!
"Xi Feng, why are you going crazy?" Dong Erpang lifted the curtain of the carriage and shouted loudly outside.
Zhong Li pulled Dong Erpang back and said coldly: "Don't worry about him, the first thing to do to cultivate the mind in cultivation is to have the courage to go against the will of heaven. What's wrong with climbing a small Mengshan?"
Dong Erpang opened his mouth and laughed dryly and said, "Hehe, don't I see him stealing the limelight alone?"
"Why don't you come?" Zhong Li glared, and Dong Erpang immediately shrank his neck and muttered in a low voice, "I'm not stupid."
So in the snow and ice, Zhao Xifeng climbed high step by step by step by step!
An hour later, a black carriage stood on the top of Mount Meng.
Zhong Li and the other two walked out of the carriage and stood beside the panting Zhao Xifeng. The couple looked down at the Huailu Plain under their feet.
The world is vast, the moon is cold under your feet, the cold river is green in the distance, and countless snowflakes dance freely in the north wind, which makes people feel excited and full of emotion.
Zhong Li stood with her hands behind her back, standing in the front position, and naturally a domineering aura emanated. Fengxue could not approach her. She turned her head and looked at the four people around her. She smiled with satisfaction. She taught students for the first time in her life, and it seemed that the results were pretty good.
Zhao Xifeng had no strength in this matter. Although he had seen the independence of Xifeng Snow Mountain, he was still shocked by the open scenery in front of him. Thinking of his actions of climbing the mountain just now, his little chest was filled with passion, and he couldn't help but let out a long roar, which shocked the whole field.
Just as the few people were intoxicated, a series of inappropriate words suddenly sounded around them: "What are you shouting? I'm so easy to have a good night's sleep? I've all been hiding on the mountain, and I can't be purified!"
Zhao Xifeng and others turned around in shock, and even Zhong Li's face changed color. Among the five people who accompanied him, except for Sun Wenzhen, the other four were all qualified to cultivate. Zhong Li had reached the level of consciousness and did not even find anyone else on the top of the mountain! Even if Fengxue interfered with the perception of several people, this was shocking enough.
Following the direction of the sound, everyone saw a sloppy man in his thirties wearing a white dress, but the white dress was so dirty that it could not be seen in its original color. There were various oil spots, ink stains, and even dark red patches like dried blood, which were very disgusting.
The man hung a gourd on his waist, which looked like an object that was a bit old. The outer skin of the gourd was a little cracked, and it was not as elegant as the mountain and sea gourd in Zhou Zhe's hands.
Looking at his face again, it was not as good as his clothes. His whole cheeks were covered with green stubble, his hair was tied with a strip of rag like a rag, and a trace of saliva hung on the corner of his mouth, which was obviously like he had just woken up.
The only thing that can be praised is the man's eyebrows, which are straight and straight, like two sharp swords hanging in front of him.
Speaking of swords, a four-foot sword was hung on the man's waist, but the scabbard was in tatter and looked like it was not a good product.
However, such a middle-aged man who didn't care about his appearance made Zhong Li and others completely nervous.
After all, who can sleep peacefully on the top of the snow-capped mountain in the night of the cold winter? Who can escape the Yuanling perception of the daughter of the head of the Huangji Sect while sleeping? Zhong Li knew in her heart that Zhou Zhe could not do it, and the first Zhiwei Cheyeye could not do it either!
It is not Panlong Town at the moment. Without the protection of Liancheng Town, if the other party is really a strong man above Zhiwei, he is not sure to protect all students' safety. Even self-protection depends on combining dragons and tigers with Zhao Xifeng. However, it is still unknown how powerful Zhao Xifeng can exert the power of Longyabi.
Zhong Li took Zhao Xifeng out and signaled Zhao Xifeng to be alert at all times with his eyes. He smiled calmly on his face and asked, "I don't know what the senior calls me, but I'm so happy to lie alone in the lonely mountain. The students are so upset. I'm really sorry."
The man rubbed his nose and frowned and said, "What seniors are you not seniors? You don't understand what you are saying, a girl. A few days ago, my family told me about the marriage. The other party's woman was too rich. I looked at it and couldn't sleep in the same bed with gritted teeth. I had to sneak out. I wanted to hide in the northwest for a while, but I didn't expect to get lost in the mountains. I had to sleep here for one night. Girl, have you brought food? It would be better if I had some wine. I haven't eaten for two days."
Zhao Zhong and the others looked at each other, thinking in their hearts that this man pretended to be stupid.
Zhao Xifeng returned to the carriage, took some dry food and handed it to the man in front of him, and said with a smile: "This uncle is so lucky. Fortunately, I met us."
"Good people will be rewarded," the man replied inappropriately while eating dry food, "Do you look like you, are students who are unsuccessful in studying?"
Zhao Xifeng nodded and said, "Yes, uncle, my name is Zhao Dongfeng, how dare you ask the eldest brother's surname?"
"Hello Zhao Dongfeng, my name is Cao Xiaojian." The man raised his head and looked at Zhao Xifeng for the first time, his eyes as if they were stars.
