Chapter 145: Ice and Fire Double Heaven

This trip to Tongyou City Mu Xiao chose to take a detour. Apart from the mist of mountains and hills, no one appeared. Looking over a mountain, there were still mountains overlapping, but the mountains in his sight were very different from those who had been passing by before. There were no steep peaks or dense forests, and there were only vegetation on the low hills. The exposed stones were like scars from the hills. Under the scorching sun, the hills were vaguely simmering. Mu Xiao stopped and looked at the connection between the Tianshan Mountains, outlining a graceful arc.

"Brother Xiao, when we walk out of this forest, we can reach Tongzhen. We have to arrive before dark." Jiang Qiaoqiao said, pointing to the distant sky, wearing a straw hat on her head, looking like a knight in the martial arts world. The exquisite sword spikes behind her are flying in the sun with the wind and a few long hair, which made Mu Xiao a little fascinated.

"Qiaoqiao, it would be great if we could wander around the world like we are now." Mu Xiao stood behind and looked at her and smiled happily.

Jiang Qiaoqiao turned her head and looked back. She had a little shyness on her blushing face. Half of her cheeks were covered by a straw hat, and she smiled and replied: "Aren't we just wandering around the world now? Let's hurry up first. If you can't get out of this forest before dark, there will be many dangers."

Walking down there are bare hills. The temperature around this forest has changed significantly. The hot feeling makes Mu Xiao and Jiang Qiaoqiao sweat without going far. They are like steamed buns in a steamer. The exposed rocks emit hot steam under the sunlight. Even some wild flowers and weeds grown here are in a dry state at such temperature. The dry and cracked soil occasionally scrapes up a burst of dust and then dissipates in the air.

Looking at the straw hat on Jiang Qiaoqiao's head, not long after entering here, the originally green thatch had been rolled up and turned a little dark. Mu Xiao wiped the sweat from his face, and a hot feeling came from his forehead, and a red mark was clearly stamped on his forehead: "This place is so hot now, it's early autumn. It shouldn't be so high. There must be problems with this forest."

Jiang Qiaoqiao fanned the wind with her hand, and her face was sweating heavily at this time. Originally, there was a closer way to Tongyou, that is, she went from the other side of the border town. However, this time the two of them went to the border town to find it (Ancient Book of Demon Suppression), so it was not convenient to leave too many traces.

Jiang Qiaoqiao looked at the rising heat on the hills and said to Mu Xiao: "This is the place where Youlong and Qingyang intersect, which is what people often call ice and fire. There are few people who come and go through here on weekdays, because one side of Qingyang is hot enough to refine the furnace, and the other side of Youlong is really as cold as an ice cellar. It is difficult for ordinary people to adapt to the sudden change of the two temperatures. What's more terrifying is that the more you go in the middle, the more complicated the situation is."

Mu Xiao looked at Jiang Qiaoqiao with a little distressed feeling. He had just walked into the hill for several miles. The two were already feeling a little uncomfortable. I was afraid the situation inside was not optimistic. However, Jiang Qiaoqiao seemed to be fine, but she was confident. Mu Xiao wanted to pass a hot stone. When his feet were approaching, he felt like a flame was burning beside him. Jiang Qiaoqiao, who had walked forward a few steps, suddenly stopped and said again: "Brother Xiao, the temperature here is mainly the rocks exposed in the sun. In addition to maintaining a calm state of mind, we should avoid the rocks and it should be easier to walk."

Jiang Qiaoqiao seemed to have discovered the mystery. As long as there are larger rocks exposed in the sun, it will be unbearable. The two continued to avoid the rocks and walk forward. Sure enough, the temperature influence along the way seemed not as obvious as before.

Even so, looking at the hills one by one, it was a big deal. I felt sweat all the way, and the water bags I carried on my body could no longer hold them out of the rolling heat waves. The more I walked forward, the more something was obviously wrong. Some scattered bones began to appear on the hills, and then I walked there, and more mummies wrapped in ragged clothes.

Just after crossing a hill, a heat wave blew in the wind, as if the lid of the steamer was opened. Mu Xiao and Jiang Qiaoqiao couldn't help but take a few steps back. The two of them steadily looked forward. A gully under the hill was covered with white smoke, as if cold water was poured onto the red iron, making a whispering sound. On the opposite side was a vast white mountain, as if covered with frost. It looked gloomy and desolate.

"This is the boundary between the two countries - the ice and fire corridor." The more you walked in, the heat coming from the soles of your feet penetrated the soles and spread directly to the human body. Jiang Qiaoqiao's skin on her face was as red as a ripe apple, and her black eyes showed a rare look of surprise when she looked at Mu Xiao.

Mu Xiao knew that it was not the most difficult time to get here. He looked at the rising gully of white smoke and spread along the hills to both sides, but the source area of ​​white smoke several feet wide had made the two of them feel a little numb.

There were bones everywhere next to the ravines, and some were even eroded by the wind. The strange aura became stronger and stronger. Mu Xiao looked at Jiang Qiaoqiao's firm gaze to relieve her a lot, and reached out to Jiang Qiaoqiao: "Come on, hurry up!"

The two of them held hands together, feeling the warmth in each other's palms. Mu Xiao suddenly pulled it. Jiang Qiaoqiao was embraced in his arms. His heartbeat was so clear and audible.

Faced with Mu Xiao's actions, Jiang Qiaoqiao was a little panicked, but she couldn't allow her to struggle more. Mu Xiao's hand was soft to hug her, and the two of them were closer.

"you!"

"Don't talk!"

Golden light appeared around Mu Xiao, and the gorgeous barrier instantly surrounded the two. As soon as her feet were tapped, a golden light passed through the white smoke area. The messy bones below were slightly moved in the wind and red. Jiang Qiaoqiao, who was embraced by Mu Xiao, looked down. The scene in front of her made her pores wide open.

The ravines under the white smoke were actually piled with white bones, emitting a strong evil spirit. As she was thinking, she seemed to have been thrown into a steamer. Before she could sweat, another biting air conditioner hit her.

The two fell on a slope, and the sound of shattering under their feet made. They looked down and saw that the ground had formed a thin piece of ice, and the place where the two fell was cracked.

Jiang Qiaoqiao suddenly broke away from Mu Xiao's arms and said with a grudge: "So shameless, take the opportunity to take advantage!"

That being said, a warm current emerged in this cold hill. Behind him, Mu Xiao scratched the back of his head with awkward expression. He had to do this just now. If he didn't do it, he would probably not be able to survive that strange gully.

"It's true that it's a world of ice and fire. It's so hot that it makes people sweat like a stream, and the blood is so cold that it's about to turn into ice. I think we have to leave here quickly!" Mu Xiao pretended not to hear Jiang Qiaoqiao's words and scanned the surrounding hills.

Although there is still sunshine, the cold air here has not diminished at all. Even breathing is difficult. I feel that my hands and feet are starting to cool down, as if the blood is slowly flowing.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and rushed forward in depth. This position was still relatively close to the gully and had to leave at the fastest speed. After a few moments, the two of them landed on the side of the hill at the same time. Although this place was not as cold as before, it was not comparable to that of a winter day.

The two of them are already in the realm of Youlong. As long as they walk twenty miles, they should be Tongzhen. These twenty miles are also the most difficult journey. After all, the environment here seems to be much more complicated than the Qingyang side. Not only are the piles of rocks, but you can also see traces of the collapse of the ground from time to time.

Slap!

While Mu Xiao and Jiang Qiaoqiao were struggling to travel, a sound suddenly came from behind the two, and their pores exploded at this moment. Looking back, a purple thing was floating in the whistling cold wind on the edge of a pile of rocks. As the wind became stronger and stronger, the purple thing rose higher and made a sound of slapping.

Mu Xiao's brows became deeper and deeper, and the eyes on both sides of the (Chuan) flashed by at this moment. He jumped towards the purple thing, and when he stood in front of the rocks, he finally confirmed his premonition just now. The woman in front of him breathed weakly, curled up beside the pile of rocks. His trembling arms tightly protected his body, and there were several blood marks on his face. His closed eyes had already formed white ice flowers.

"Is it her?" Seeing the situation, Jiang Qiaoqiao looked at Qi Nian beside the rocks, and his eyes became a little complicated when he looked at Mu Xiao, but he quickly adjusted his emotions and said, "Shouldn't she be in the border town? How could she be here?"

"I don't know, saving people is important, why don't you come?"

Jiang Qiaoqiao is here, Mu Xiao dare not touch other women without his consent. Besides, the woman in front of him is inconsistent, so he can contact less if he can.

Jiang Qiaoqiao didn't think about it, looked at Mu Xiao coldly and said, "Go up!"

"good!"

Mu Xiao didn't dare to say much, and let out aside. Jiang Qiaoqiao leaned over and helped Qi Nian up, put his fingers on his wrist for a while, and his face became more and more serious.

He looked at Mu Xiao with a helpless expression and said, "There is a cold air in her body that does not belong to her, which seems to be eroding her body. I'm not sure if you want to try it!"

Mu Xiao wanted to speak but stopped. He originally wanted to say that there was indeed a cold air in Qi Nian's body. But a flash of inspiration in his mind. If he said this, he would inevitably be thrown into the ice cellar.

At this time, fingered himself in surprise and said, "I? Men and women are not allowed to kiss each other, why don't you take a closer look?"

"It's important to save people, hurry up!" Jiang Qiaoqiao got up and pulled Mu Xiao's arm and pushed it towards Qi Nian. Mu Xiao looked reluctant, which made Jiang Qiaoqiao feel secretly happy.

Mu Xiao squatted down, gently supported Qi Nian's hand, and fell two fingers on Qi Nian's wrist, and never dared to make any more contact. After a while, he raised his sleeves and stood up, turned to Jiang Qiaoqiao behind him and said, "It is true that the cold air in her body is spreading. You must first push the cold air into a place to suppress it to protect her life."

"Then come, why are you talking about? The environment here is so harsh, it will be troublesome if you drag it down." After Jiang Qiaoqiao said that, she looked at the sky. At this time, the sun had set and there were signs of wind rising on the hills.

Mu Xiao naturally felt the environment here. Although it was not dark, as the sun set, the temperature here became colder and there was even colder wind blowing.

He can't afford to think too much at this moment, and it will really cause big trouble if he drags on it.
