Qing'er didn't understand at all and asked, "Is she sleepy? How did he suddenly fall asleep? "
"You can think of it as meditation or hibernation."
Tong Yan explained, "She was hurt by the Sun Banner, so she entered this state."
Jing Jiu glanced at them and reminded them to keep their voices down in case they woke her up.
He and Tong Yan were the Human Race's most adept chess players. They had been silent for a while to observe, analyze, and calculate.
In the end, he came to the conclusion that the Snow Girl had fallen asleep.
Qing 'er was very surprised, wondering how this man could be injured by the Sun Banner.
Compared to the Underworld, the Snow Empire was the greatest and true threat to the Human Race. This was a fact that everyone knew. However, mortals were only afraid of the world of ice and snow, and they did not understand the real reason. Only the cultivators in the world of cultivation and the real spirits of heavenly treasures like her knew that the Queen of the Snowy Kingdom was the source of all the fear.
The Queen of the Snowy Kingdom was an intelligent being of the highest state in Chaotian. Even the ancient divine animals like the Unicorn were inferior to her. She was a legendary being.
Normally, even if the Sun Banner possessed the power of a being in the Reaching Heaven State, it shouldn't have been able to hurt her.
"If it was that person who came, she naturally wouldn't be injured, but she's only that person's daughter."
Tong Yan looked at the Snow Girl and said with a complicated expression, "This kind of high-level bloodline has an extremely long lifespan. Twenty years is too short. She is still a child."
Jing Jiu agreed with this judgment. Years ago, he had experienced the coercion in the snowland. The Sun Banner was just an ordinary flag for the Queen.
But he was wrong about one thing. The reason why the Snow Girl was hurt by the Sun Banner was not because she was underage or inexperienced, but because she had forgotten that she was very weak. She still looked at the world as she used to. She judged the strong and the weak according to what she used to see. She really thought that the Sun Banner was just a small flag …
Qing 'er said happily, "That's great. Let's go then."
Tong Yan fell silent again. Jing Jiu looked down at the snow and wind at the foot of the cliff. No one knew what he was thinking.
The north of the Cold Mountain was to the south of the snowline set by the humans.
The appearance of the Snow Girl here could bring unimaginable disasters to the Human Race.
Even if she was just a child, she was still that person's child.
The most important thing for Jing Jiu and Tong Yan to do at the moment was to find a way to inform White Town and ask Broadsword King and Zen Master to come here and suppress her.
If she woke up, how could they keep her?
"If she hadn't attracted the Sun Banner's Mystical Fire, we would have been dead by now."
Tong Yan said, "In a sense, she is our savior."
The meaning of these words was very clear. He could not bear to hand the Snow Girl over to Sword Saint and Zen Master and let her be executed.
Should he let the Snow Girl sleep in the snow mountain? No one knew what kind of disaster she would bring to the human world when she woke up.
In that case, there was only one solution left, which was to take Xue Gie away and let them take care of her.
The problem was, would they be able to shoulder such a heavy responsibility?
— — Zhongzhou School really liked to control everything, even if it was an abandoned student.
This was Jing Jiu's thought.
Looking at the wind and snow at the foot of the cliff, Jing Jiu remarked, "It's a terrible idea."
Tong Yan asked while staring into his eyes, "What if … you kill her?"
Jing Jiu of course wouldn't kill the Snow Girl.
First of all, he was not sure if he had the ability to kill her. Secondly, even if he could kill her, what if the Queen of the Snowy Kingdom took revenge for her daughter after she found out about it? Would he want the whole of Aoyama to be buried with her? There was no need to talk about the nonsense of mother and daughter killing each other. The story of the mother and daughter killing each other and not being killed by others had happened many times in history, and Green Mountain had seen it many times.
Jing Jiu didn't know how to respond to Tong Yan's provocation.
If it were any other provocation, he would retaliate with a swing of his sword; but the provocation related to the Queen of the Snowy Kingdom … he could endure it.
As the saying goes, "Enduring for a moment is like enduring for a lifetime."
…
…
The Sun Banner was taken away by Wang Xiaoming, and the Green Sky Mirror had no need to resist the Heavenly Fire, so the temperature had returned to normal.
The sky in the Illusionary Realm of the Green Sky Mirror grew darker. It was no longer red, but as gloomy as the ink.
The Eldest Young Master Zhang had noticed the change in the sky a long time ago, thinking that the Emperor had indeed heard his voice. He couldn't help but feel proud.
As the gentle wind brushed over his body, he felt so comfortable … he shivered a few times. Then he remembered that he wasn't wearing any clothes, and he was covered in sweat all over his body. It was easy for him to get sick if he was blown by the wind.
This world had become stranger and stranger; but who knew if he would get sick in the future?
He walked back to the courtyard at the foot of the mountain while leaning on the wooden stick. He checked on his son, granddaughter, grandson and daughter-in-law one by one, and made sure that they were all safe and sound. He put on a jacket and went to the nearby Zhao Ju House to make sure that all the people and livestock in his house were still sleeping. Then, he went to the well behind the Zhao Ju House and craned his neck to take a look. After he was sure that the red carp hadn't come back, he couldn't help but feel disappointed. Thinking of the peculiar phenomenon that day, he was worried that the red carp would be safe.
Over the last few years, he was the only one in the village who was awake. Even the livestock and the magpies at the entrance of the village were sleeping. Though he wasn't scared out of his wits by the peculiar phenomenon, he couldn't help but feel a bit lonely. It wasn't until last year that he suddenly found a red carp in the well, and that the carp could talk to the humans. He was so happy that he said good morning to the carp every day after he got up, and then he talked to the carp every day.
He had killed a lot of time by doing that. Through the conversations he had with the carp, he learned that the red carp was a divine beast of a different world, called the King of Fire Carp, who lived in a patch of scorching lava. Unfortunately, the King of Fire Carp was a bit dull, and it seemed that he hadn't been to any other places. All he could talk to the carp about was how formidable he was, which made him feel bored.
As a result, the red carp had suddenly disappeared a few days ago. The Eldest Young Master Zhang was so anxious that he almost jumped into the well. He searched for the carp in the rivers around the village for a long time, and he even went to the market in the town and searched the fish shops for the fish that would never rot; but he still couldn't find the carp.
… …
… …
In the deep end of the barren land, in the scorching lava river, the Fire Carp felt relieved when he sensed that the dreadful energy was moving away. He had finally come up to the surface of the river and rolled a few times cheerfully, splashing a large amount of red lava and burning a picture on the cliff wall.
It was better that the carp had left, the farther the better. It had nothing to do with him if the human race encountered any trouble.
He was merely a fish.
In the next moment, he sensed that the energy of the Green Sky Mirror was also moving away. He couldn't help but stop wagging his tail, and looked up worriedly, wondering if Brother Zhang would have a mishap.
… …
… …
In recent years, the coldness in the snowland had grown colder and colder, and the snowfall season in Juye City and other places had grown longer. Even Dayuan City, which had a pleasant climate, had grown much colder.
It had been a long time since the beginning of spring. The sky in Dayuan City had cleared up, and it had been warm for a few days. But suddenly, a heavy snowfall occurred, and the coldness of late spring arrived.
The accumulated snow was everywhere on the streets, and the surface of the rivers was covered with a thin layer of ice.
If a Cultivation practitioner looked down at the ground from the sky and observed it for a long time, he might find that this snowfall had nothing to do with the coldness of late spring or the cold air in the north.
The mountains and fields in the north had started to grow green. Dayuan City and its surroundings were covered with white snow, looking like a white circle.
The closer one was to the center of the circle, the thicker the accumulated snow was, and the colder the air was.
There was a nunnery at the intersection of a mountain stream in the northeast of Dayuan City. There was a nunnery at the end of the stream when one turned to the right.
This nunnery was covered with white snow, which happened to be the center of the circle.
An old rock was lying on the ground in front of the nunnery.
Two words were carved on the rock.
Three thousand.
