Ten days later.
According to the plan,
Xia Ji, the eldest princess, Ice Emperor, and Ji Xuan left Jinghu Manor.
Then he passed through Su's house and arrived directly outside Fenglang Pass in the north.
The first is to let the new king increase his knowledge, the second is to take advantage of the early stage of the fire tribulation and the depth of winter to test the periphery of the fire tribulation, and the third is to get a little magic fire to break through the eleventh realm.
Customs.
Thousands of peaks, no smoke and sunset, only broken and lonely gates standing on the horizon, only white snow covering countless bones.
The snow here is much heavier than in the south. The south is so bitterly wet and cold, and here it is so cold that it can freeze people into ice sculptures.
Snapped!
Ice Emperor threw a cowhide wine bag far away.
Xia Ji took it.
The Ice Emperor threw another one to Ji Xuan.
As for the eldest princess, she did not drink. She took out a leather bag with hot tea and drank it independently from the three of them.
"It's snowing heavily and it's such a hell-like scene of ice. It's really unimaginable that there will be a fire disaster."
Su Bingxuan couldn't help sighing, then looked at Xia Jida and said, "Bei Nan, our people will be here soon."
Not long after he finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves like a drumbeat suddenly came from the distance.
The snow is boiling,
When he looked again, he saw a group of five thousand armored cavalry coming from a distance surrounded by several carriages.
Su Bingxuan smiled, and Xia Ji glanced at the eldest princess out of the corner of his eye. The latter's expression remained unwavering, and he quickly turned to Xia Ji from the corner of his eye. Although his expression was still relaxed and charming, he was much more wary.
In a moment, Xia Ji understood.
The Ice Emperor is the real Ice Emperor, so his network can cover a wide area.
But the eldest princess is not the real eldest princess, so she almost has a black eye outside. She does not have the relationship that she should have, because the real eldest princess never thought of letting her come into contact with these things.
An Rongrong will naturally try her best to regain these connections, but the Ice Emperor is like a fierce tiger hiding in the dark and watching her. She can't act rashly. In addition, the time given to her is really limited. Now it seems that she has arrived. Here... almost alone.
This game in the North is the Ice Emperor's home field, and it is also the tomb he set for An Rongrong.
Five thousand cavalry and three carriages stopped in front of the four people.
The cavalry are burly, each about two meters tall. They are wearing black armor and are extremely powerful.
And the horse of ** is also extremely strong,
When the horse looks at people, there is actually a bit of fierceness that wants to bite people.
This kind of horse is called a dragon horse. It was bred by aristocratic families. It is cold-resistant, can run, eat meat, and even...cannibalize people.
The three leaders of the cavalry immediately jumped off their horses and knelt down to the Ice Emperor. However, they did not address him by name. They just lowered their heads and said in unison: "I have met you, sir."
The other five thousand people also knelt down one after another, and their voices rolled away.
Su Bingxuan smiled and said: "Eldest Princess, if there is no one, I will spare a carriage for you. Bei Nan, you and I will ride in the same carriage, okay?"
An Rongrong smiled and said, "No need."
Then, he looked at Xia Jidao and shouted like a kitten scratching its paws: "The journey from north to south is long, and the scenery outside the Great Wall is monotonous. Come over here, I have a lot to say to you."
Su Bingxuan said: "The eldest princess doesn't have to worry about this. Although the journey is boring, I have already arranged it. The north and south are on my side, which is much better than going to your side."
At this moment, a burst of eagle chirping suddenly sounded in the sky.
Everyone looked up and saw a white eagle chasing a snowbird with spread wings. The snowbird was extremely embarrassed and fled away, but the white eagle was chasing after it like a cat chasing a mouse.
Su Bingxuan laughed and said: "Eldest Princess, do you think that snow bird is pitiful?"
An Rongrong said: "I like that white eagle."
"Oh?" Su Bingxuan slowly walked towards her. The two of them looked at each other, their eyes full of coldness. Su Bingxuan lowered his voice and said, "With all due respect, you are not worthy. A low status is a low status, and it was turned over for a moment. Do you still want to change your life?"
An Rongrong didn't give in at all and argued: "The ice and snow here just correspond to your name as Ice Emperor, but the disaster of fire comes from the west, and ice and fire cannot be tolerated. Since fire cannot be extinguished, only ice will be extinguished." .Su Bingxuan, this will be your burial place."
"Really?" Su Bingxuan's lips curled up with a mocking arc, and then pointed to the distance, "Just rely on them?"
The distance he pointed to.
There were three hundred guards dressed as Jianghu people, surrounding three carriages.
The momentum of these three hundred people was much inferior to that of the five thousand people on one side.
Su Bingxuan burst out laughing, "Don't fall behind."
After saying that, he turned around and got into the carriage.
Xia Ji turned his head and looked at An Rongrong from afar.
This glance is extremely complicated.
Because, if Xia Ji really chooses the Ice Emperor, then this place is most likely the eldest princess's grave.
Xia Ji did not reveal too many secrets to the eldest princess from beginning to end, which meant that he could "rebellion".
But will Xia Ji rebel
Although it would be best to just go with the flow at this time, he won't.
Because the eldest princess is not a real Su family, she is also the natural enemy of the Su family, and is an important part of Xia Ji's control and annexation of the Su family.
An Rongrong didn't know who Xia Ji was.
But Xia Ji knows who he is.
He and she are naturally allies.
So, he sighed heavily and turned around to get on the Ice Emperor's carriage.
An Rongrong's face was frosty, but when she turned her head, she smiled. She was really relieved when she heard Feng Nanbei's sigh. At this time, she raised her head and looked into the distance. The sky and the earth were white and could not tolerate other colors. Just like she and the Ice Emperor, they could no longer tolerate each other.
The three hundred guards immediately knelt down and said respectfully: "Sir."
An Rongrong can still rest assured about these three hundred people. These are dead soldiers. It is also an "army" that she has put together in a limited time with great effort to prepare for another most important fight in her life. used in.
She smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
The dead soldiers raised their voices: "Die for your Excellency!"
An Rongrong got on the carriage and raised her voice: "Follow me!"
The Su family naturally needs to act together.
An Rongrong held her chin up and threw her fragile and boneless body into the warm leather. She reached out and took out a red knife from the space ring, and lightly and tenderly passed it with the two fingers of her left hand.
The sound of wheel hub,
Swirling snow dust upwards.
She pushed open the curtain and looked at the five thousand cavalry in front of them in the distance, as well as the carriage among the cavalry.
Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
Wind north and south…
What kind of man are you
It’s really hard to see through.
Even she couldn't think of any reason for Feng Nanbei to help her at this moment.
Are you thinking about yourself
If it were someone else, maybe.
But wind north and south, no.
…
…
Xia Ji sat in the carriage.
Sure enough, the activities arranged by the Ice King are as easy to guess as ever...
Simple, crude, and straight to the heart.
Beautiful women, good wine, good food.
He yawned and straightened his two long legs in a comfortable posture. The warmth came from the thick fur plush. The carriage was very warm and isolated from the severe cold outside the customs. However, the journey was too long, and the end It’s unknown again.
However, he was different from the Ice Emperor and the eldest princess. He was used to facing all the unknowns, not to mention that the car not only had warmth, but also spring.
"Sir, you can do whatever you want."
"Yes, no matter what your request is, we will satisfy it."
Xia Ji glanced at it. Although the two girls in the carriage were pretending to be flattering, their temperament was noble and their behavior was graceful. They were obviously not the top names in the Goulan brothel. If I guessed correctly, it was the Ice Emperor who went directly. Which family's eldest lady or whose bride was "invited"? These girls may be arrogant and domineering masters outside, but here, they can only serve them carefully like slaves.
Xia Ji pointed to a jar of strong wine piled on the table, "Split it."
The two girls said Yingying: "Yes, young master."
They had adjusted their mentality on the way here. It seemed that this young man wanted to play with them while they were drunk.
So, the two girls drank one glass at a time and drank a jar of strong wine.
Then he fell down softly at the same time.
Only then did silence return to the carriage.
Xia Ji vaguely heard laughter and play coming from the car in front, which was Su Bingxuan enjoying himself.
As for Ji Xuan's carriage, Su Bingxuan didn't make any arrangements. After all, the new king couldn't delay his studies.
…
…
In this way, the Su family's team headed west and encountered many things on the way.
Or the villages and towns that were destroyed during the war.
Or people holding weapons and fighting each other.
Or an old man whose daughter or granddaughter was caught by bandits and is wailing in pain on the side of the road, begging for help.
Or maybe they were small groups of foreign bandits.
All kinds of things.
However, the Su family's team was well-equipped and their horses were formidable, so no one dared to take the initiative to provoke them.
The carriage passed through the chaos beyond the wall,
But the journey was uneventful.
The snow is also calm,
The further west you go, the more desolate it becomes.
The more nobody there is.
Almost half a month passed,
The scene started to get weird.
You can often see burning trees in the pouring snow.
Bodies burned to black charcoal still hung on the trees.
Some corpses were bitten by an unknown giant beast, or half of the body was trampled and exploded, and they were deeply sunk in the snow. Due to the squeeze of blood pressure, one of the eyes of the corpse popped out, hanging only by its nerves. From the corner of his eye, it was very scary.
The atmosphere suddenly became terrifying.
From time to time, there was a biting cold wind in the air, followed by a suffocating heat wave, which made the person break out in a hot sweat, but was instantly frozen, making the body extremely uncomfortable.
Everyone suddenly became alert.
The whole team cautiously explored inside.
This day at noon.
Wonderful scenes appeared in the heaven and earth,
The sky covered with thick clouds revealed brilliant and colorful lights.
In sight,
Half of it is snowing heavily,
The other half is dry land.
And suddenly there was a dense running sound on the ground, like the beating of countless drums.
Xia Ji looked out the window and saw something dark in the distance. Looking closer, he saw many wild beasts, including snow tigers, snow leopards, snow rabbits, snow sheep, and even snow birds and snow snakes. Yes, there are different sizes and types. The same thing is that they are all running towards the east, as if they are escaping for their lives.
"Hold your shield and block the tide of beasts!!"
The black-armored general at the head of the five thousand cavalry said loudly.
As his voice fell, he took out many huge shields from the space ring and threw them to the ground. Hundreds of the strongest men in the cavalry immediately grabbed the shields and rushed forward, forming a hard and indestructible giant shield. city wall.
It seems that Su Bingxuan has also laid down enough chips for this battle, because space rings are not very common items in aristocratic families.
Not long.
Bang bang bang bang bang! !
There was a continuous sound of impact.
Xia Ji looked indifferent, but the two girls in the carriage were so shocked that they couldn't breathe.
A girl asked: "Sir, where exactly are we here?"
Another girl was holding some kind of mudra with her hands. This was obviously some kind of advanced skill. She was adjusting her breath and trying to calm down her emotions.
Xia Ji pointed to the food in the corner and said, "At the critical moment, take some dry food and some liquor to escape."
"I... we won't escape."
Xia Jidao: "It's not about escaping from this army, it's about escaping from... the monsters."
The two women's eyes widened.
Bang bang bang bang! !
The sound is endless.
It lasted about half a stick of incense before the beast tide passed.
The warriors put their shields back, and before they could catch their breath, someone let out a horrifying exclamation.
The fierce dragon horse also began to neigh uneasily.
"Oh My God."
"what is that?"
"monster… "
Although this army was highly disciplined, it could not help but marvel in the face of real horror.
far away,
The thick poisonous gas is rolling, and fire corpses and fire beasts are running eastward in groups, followed by huge lava giants. The high temperature distorts the distant scenes. This scene is simply breathtaking. asphyxia.
Let alone a fight, as long as there is a confrontation, the poisonous gas and high-temperature flames will kill humans instantly.
"ah!!"
"what is that!!"
The two women in the carriage exclaimed.
Xia Ji tapped their mute points and looked at them intently.
His eyes moved,
This scene turned out to be very similar to the world-destroying scene he encountered in the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Map.
He still remembered that he met a fire crow, and then named the strange fire crow Liuli.
At this time, the Ice Emperor's faint voice came from afar.
"Bei Nan, get a dragon horse and we'll go north. Don't worry about Ji Xuan. I've arranged people to protect him."
The words just fell.
The cavalry of five thousand dragon horses suddenly dispersed, turning into small groups and running away in all directions. It looked like they were running away, but in fact they were a team of a hundred people, going to all directions. Like chess pieces being scattered everywhere by a big hand. .
One of the teams surrounded Ji Xuan and got on the horse.
Xia Ji also felt that bringing Ji Xuan was a burden, so he sent a message: "Follow them."
In this situation, Ji Xuan is actually the safest person.
Then, he directly untied the two women's mute acupoints, threw a few bottles of pills, and said: "Two horses, take one and run east. How far you can run depends on your luck."
After saying that, he got on a horse and headed north.
When An Rongrong saw this situation, her thoughts turned quickly. She clapped her hands, and the three hundred dead soldiers immediately abandoned her and quickly evacuated eastward. And she quickly jumped onto a dragon horse pulling the cart, and followed it to the north. If they were all alone, first of all, the two-on-one situation would win, and secondly, no matter who died, they could be pushed to Fire disaster.
Su Bingxuan turned his head slightly and saw the eldest princess following him. His expression moved and a smile appeared on his lips.
And at this moment,
The fire beasts that surged in from the west had already arrived. The few on the edge seemed to have spotted the prey fleeing north, and they left the large group and chased after them.
The three of them were silent.
Su Bingxuan, who was at the front, suddenly turned around and said strangely: "Feng Nanbei, why do you think she dares to follow up alone?"
Without waiting for Xia Ji's reply, the Ice Emperor said: "Now, I will give you a chance to repay her kindness and give you a chance to reconsider."
After saying that, the Ice Emperor jumped off the dragon horse, and as soon as he landed on the ground, he disappeared with a "whoosh".
Xia Ji saw that he was going underground and hurriedly rode over. When he looked at the ground, it was flat.
Earth Escape
Or something else
Or is it a magic weapon
And the Ice Emperor Dragon Horse suddenly made a crackling sound, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the smell of blood filled the air. This seemed to stimulate the fire corpse fire beasts not far away, making them faster.
This is not enough.
Xia Ji looked north, east, and even south.
At some point, fire beasts were surrounded from all directions.
Rolling poisonous smoke and unquenchable flames were coming towards him.
At this time, An Rongrong had also rode to his side. The two of them were back to back, looking at this scene as if they were in a desperate situation.
Xia Ji sent a message: "How did the Ice Emperor leave?"
An Rongrong pondered for a moment, then frowned and said: "There is a big demon of the alliance in the Su family here. It is a wood demon. It is extremely ferocious and likes to eat people. The Ice Emperor may have formed an alliance with it."
"Wood?"
"Wood genus."
The two looked at each other.
Wood makes fire.
The big demon of the wood attribute can "command" fire beasts to a certain extent. If this big demon really forms an alliance with the Ice Emperor, then for the two of them, this place will be like a dead end.
