Chapter 423 "He Is Not a Person"
From the foot of the mountain to the top, there was only one steep path … … Perhaps it could not be called a "path", but this section of the mountain was not as steep as the other sections.
Redwater Duan walked in the front, his black robe fluttering in the wind. His steps were light and quick. Du Wei and Jojo were behind him. Du Wei was having a harder time. After all, Jojo was an eighth level warrior. Her skills were better than Du Wei's.
Along the way, Du Wei was surprised to see that they were not the only three people on this path.
From the foot of the mountain, one could see that occasionally, there would be one or two people wearing the fur robes of the grassland. At the foot of the mountain, they would crawl on the ground and worship the Snow Mountain. Their posture was the standard "prostration". Their faces were full of piety and their mouths were even chanting.
On the mountain path, Du Wei saw another shabbily dressed herdsman. His sleeves and trousers were worn out. His face was covered with dust, but he was still struggling on the mountain path. After every three steps, this person would stop and kowtow to the distant mountain peak. His mouth would chant a prayer that Du Wei could not understand. Then he would stand up, take another three steps, and kowtow again.
With every three steps, this person would not know how far he had walked. His body seemed to be staggering, but the piety on his face was firm. He was obviously on the verge of collapse, but his eyes were full of holiness.
Seeing this, Du Wei could not help but sigh: "This person is working hard. But kowtowing like this, is he praying for the protection of the Shaman King?"
Redwater Duan saw this but did not find it strange. He lightly said: "This is nothing. The status of the Snow Mountain in the hearts of the grassland people is like a holy land. In the Roland Empire, perhaps everyone only believes in one Goddess of Light. But in the hearts of the grassland people, the Shaman King is a god walking in the human world! "
He looked at the people who were kowtowing all the way up the mountain and softly said: "Every year, there are countless people like this on the Snow Mountain. The furthest one is hundreds of li away from the foot of the mountain. Kowtowing every three steps, all the way to the mountainside. I'm afraid it'll take more than a month. "
While they were talking, the three of them had already passed the passerby and were heading up.
On the other hand, when the passerby saw Du Wei and the other two, his expression suddenly changed. Especially when he saw Chi Shui Duan's attire, his expression became even more solemn. He silently knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of Chi Shui Duan, performing a "prostrating" ceremony.
"He thinks I'm a sorcerer from the Snow Mountain." Redwater Duan said indifferently: "This is the only way to go up the mountain. As long as you go up the mountain, you have to take this path. On the other hand, if it was an outsider, they would have to be careful and pay their respects along the way. Only the Magi on the mountain would come and go as casually as we do. "
As they spoke, the three of them turned around a corner and could no longer see the person below.
This mountain path was full of twists and turns, and on one side was a bottomless abyss. It was slanted and steep.
The three of them were extremely fast. It didn't take long for them to reach the snow line. In the blink of an eye, the surroundings were no longer green. What entered their eyes was a silvery white! Even the Blue Sheep on the rocks that they saw earlier could no longer be seen at this height.
At noon, the mountain path suddenly widened, and they walked onto a huge natural platform. This platform was as if someone had abruptly shaved off a section of the mountain, forming a natural area that was hundreds of meters wide.
Walking onto this platform, Du Wei looked back. The foot of the mountain was already a vast expanse. They were only halfway up the mountain, but they could already feel the strong winds blowing, making them feel cold all over.
And on this platform, there were actually people!
A few grassland people, and it seemed like they were probably people from some large tribe. Although they were wearing leather robes, they looked quite luxurious. They were also wearing accessories that symbolized their status!
These people sat on the platform, and behind them was a huge flag. In the middle, there was a pile of flames lit. It was unknown how it was done, but the flames actually emitted dark green rays of light as they burned.
"These people are here to ask for an audience." Chi Shui Duan said indifferently: "Hmph, it seems that those tribes will soon have a war … … Du Wei, these people are probably the enemies of that Saladin. Coming here is nothing more than asking for the support of the snow mountain. Look at the flames they ignited, it was thrown in with a special item to make the flames glow green. Because even if they want to see the people of the snow mountain, these people can only go up to here and can't go any further! This green flame can be seen from hundreds of miles away, which means that someone wants to see them … … As for whether they want to see them or not, that is the decision of the people on the mountain. "
When these people saw Chi Shui Duan and the other two coming up, they were all shocked. Then they saw Chi Shui Duan wearing a black robe, and everyone was incomparably shocked, thinking that he was a wizard of the snow mountain.
But these people didn't dare to come up and disturb them. They looked nervous and quickly stood up from afar, and then crawled on the ground to salute the three people. Their eyes were full of pleading.
Chi Shui Duan snorted and ignored them. He took the lead and led Du Wei and Jojo forward.
The front of the platform had already reached the end. In the distance, about a thousand meters away, there was another mountain. Between the mountain peak and the platform, there was a vast and profound canyon!
Standing at the edge of the cliff, one could only feel a vast expanse of mist under their feet. It was a silver sea, snow and ice dancing in the sky, and gusts of wind blowing.
And if one looked carefully, there was actually an iron chain as thick as a Great Covenant person's arm connecting the two ends!
"Let's go, this is the only bridge." Chi Shui Duan snorted and took the lead to walk on the iron chain.
Although it was only an iron chain, under the gusts of wind, it was undulating, but with Chi Shui Duan's ability, it was as if he was walking on flat ground. On the iron chain, his body moved forward as if he was flying.
No matter how strong the wind was, Chi Shui Duan's body didn't seem to be strained at all.
Du Wei weighed in his heart. If his body was in good condition, he could fly with the Controlling Wind Technique. But in this kind of wind, it was hard to say. Glancing at Jojo, the two of them grabbed each other's hands and followed behind Redwater's broken rope, climbing onto the lone rope.
The two of them thought that after they finished walking, they would reach flat ground. Who knew that when they reached the next mountain peak, they would discover that this mountain peak wasn't the end either. In front of them was a cliff, and in the distance, there was a similar iron chain bridge that connected to the next mountain peak!
Just like this, they walked across seven or eight of these iron chain bridges and passed several mountain peaks. When they finally reached flat ground, Du Wei felt his legs go soft.
He sighed and said with a bitter smile, "The founder of the Great Snow Mountain was really ruthless! Even if he wanted to be mysterious, there was no need to go so far! "
Hearing this, Chi Shui Duan smiled and said, "This iron chain bridge is not only to stop outsiders, it is also to restrict the people on the Great Snow Mountain! On the Great Snow Mountain, if you don't have a certain level of cultivation, you are not allowed to go down the mountain! If you don't have a certain level of cultivation, even if you want to go down the mountain, you can't walk across this iron chain bridge! "
Fortunately, the iron chain bridge stopped here.
In front of them was the main peak of the Great Snow Mountain! Looking up, the mountain peak was steep and pierced the clouds. He didn't know how high it was. In any case, Du Wei couldn't see the end of it. Because at night, the wind and snow rolled the clouds and drifted in the sky. Under the white snow, there was a silver light. It was impossible to see what was in the distance.
The mountain road behind them seemed to be a lot wider. Obviously, it had been artificially widened. At the foot of the mountain road, there was a stone tablet that was as tall as a person. This stone tablet wasn't made of stone, but was carved out of ice!
Who knew how many years had passed. This ice was no longer silver and transparent. Instead, it had a faint trace of green.
On the ice tablet, there was only one line of content.
"Those who dare to go up will die!"
This short sentence was actually written in several different languages, which made Du-Wei a little surprised. He only recognized the Roland Empire's language and the prairie language. As for the other languages, he didn't recognize them.
After taking a look, Jojo couldn't help but have a strange expression. She pulled Du Wei's sleeve and said in a low voice, "It seems … this language seems to be elven …"
Du Wei's heart skipped a beat! He knew that the Green Robed Gandorf had already passed on the elven magic to Jojo. Although Jojo didn't recognize the elven language, she felt that the two languages were very similar. It was easy to guess.
Du Wei thought to himself: I didn't expect the founder of the Great Snow Mountain to not only know the Roland Empire's language, but also the prairie language and the elven language … then what are the other languages? Orc language? Dwarven language?
After passing through the ice tablet, there was a slope in front of them. On both sides of the slope, there were a large number of icicles!
These icicles were of different shapes and sizes. Some were upright, some were slanted, but they were all inserted into the ground on both sides. Their sizes were at least as tall as a person. There were also ten icicles grouped together, like a blooming flower.
Chi Shuiduan walked here, but suddenly stopped.
Du Wei was about to speak, but he saw Chi Shuiduan looking at these icicles in a daze. In his eyes, there seemed to be an indescribable emotion flowing faintly …
After a long time, he heard Chi Shuiduan say in a low voice, "A few decades have passed … sigh, I thought I had forgotten …"
He muttered to himself in a low voice, "Teacher … I'm back. Do you know … Chi Shuiduan is back. And Yue, Chou … I'm back! "
Looking at those icicles, Chi Shuiduan's mind seemed to fly back to a few decades ago. When he first came to the Great Snow Mountain, he was still a child. At that time, he was Yue, Chou, and Chou. Because the three of them had the best aptitude, they were chosen by the Shaman King as his direct disciples. He did not know how many people envied him … how many people were jealous of him!
From that day on, these three young children were regarded as the future candidates for the inheritance of the Great Snow Mountain.
However, how could three youths endure the loneliness of living in the snow all year round?
Even the most amazing talent Bai Hechou, the wisdom of the sea Lan Haiyue, and the cruel and merciless Chi Shuiduan, at that time, they were only at an innocent age. The mood of youth, occasionally could not bear the loneliness. They would also come here to play and play.
There was nothing interesting on the mountain, but the icicles here formed a huge ice flower. The shape was strange and interesting, and the place was big. It became a paradise for these three young children.
Looking at this place, Chi Shuiduan could vaguely see the three young children playing around the icicles, chasing each other and laughing.
Even Bai Hechou, who he hated all his life, would often take care of him when he was the youngest. Although he didn't like Bai Hechou's reticence, it was that guy who carried him all the way back when his leg was pierced by an icicle.
Later on, Lan Haiyue was called a "coward" by him. That wise Lan Haiyue, at that time, the thing he liked to do the most was to secretly grab a handful of ice and snow and stuff it into his clothes when he was not paying attention ….
Since when did the three youths who had been so close to each other become irreconcilable enemies …?
Chi Shuiduan looked at the icicles in a daze. After a long time, he finally came back to his senses and suddenly waved his hand.
With a whoosh, a wind blade burst out from his palm and cut a large number of icicles in front of him in half!
Chi Shuiduan sneered: "The older I get, the more confused I become! Humph, it's all in the past. The two of them have already let it go. Why am I still thinking about it! "
Turning his head to look at Du Wei, he coldly said: "Let's go, kid!"
Saying that, he was about to come over and pull Du Wei when his face suddenly changed. Looking past Du Wei, he looked down the mountain in the distance ….
Listening carefully, Chi Shuiduan's face became even more surprised ….
At this time, a cold and leisurely voice floated over from the bottom of the mountain. That voice was calm and elegant, unhurried and even had a hint of nobility.
"Du Wei, Duke of Tulip Family! You've been gone for so many days, could it be that you want to hide here? "
As soon as the voice fell, Du Wei and Jojo looked at each other with a strange expression!
Falling Snow!
The corner of Du Wei's mouth seemed to carry a trace of a complicated smile: "This is going to be interesting. That damned transvestite has finally caught up …."
Looking further back, they could see that in the sea of clouds, on top of the floating iron chain, a figure was breaking through the clouds.
Looking at his appearance, he was extremely elegant and calm. Walking on the swaying iron chain, under his feet was the abyss of the sea of clouds. His appearance was as if he was taking a stroll in his own back garden. And his smile, was as free and easy as before.
"Du Wei ah Du Wei, last time your plan was to go into the swamp, but this time you ran to such a high snow mountain … you really can bring me surprises every time!"
Hearing this voice, Chi Shuiduan's face darkened. Glancing at Du Wei: "Who is it? Is he here to find you? "
Du Wei shrugged his shoulders, smiling faintly: "Mister Chi Shuiduan, more accurately, he is not a 'person'."
"Not a person, then what is he?" Chi Shuiduan frowned.
"A damned transvestite!" Jojo gritted her teeth.
