It was still summer when Yang Junshan left Yuzhou. It took nearly a month to reach Liangzhou. When he passed through Ningjun, he fought with outside monks along the way, which took another two months. , according to the date, it is close to the Mid-Autumn Festival.
But after Yang Junshan climbed over the snow ridge, what appeared in front of Yang Junshan was a scene like ice and snow.
"Haha, Brother Xiao Yang, you are not from the Northern Three Counties of Liangzhou. Only you monks from the Southern Three Counties will not pay much attention to the cold wave!"
An old Dzogchen monk said this, and all the eight or nine martial artist monks around him laughed in good faith.
Yang Junshan accidentally encountered this group of martial monks after crossing the snowy ridge. They came from a prominent family named Ning in Lengning County, Ning County.
When Yang Junshan met them, the ten martial arts monks of the Ning family were surrounded by a group of hungry savage wolves on the ice field.
The total number of this group of savage wolves is about thirty. The power of the savage beasts also means that this group of wolves has a cultivation level no less than that of a warrior. Coupled with the drive of hunger, they will be surrounded and killed even if they pay a certain price. This group of human monks serve as food.
At that time, among the ten monks of the Ning family, except for the leader of the family who was at the Great Perfection realm and a middle-aged monk in his thirties who was at the fourth level of the martial arts realm, the other eight had cultivation levels below the Evil Qi realm.
Of course we can fight if we fight hard. Although the savage wolves are terrifying, they have no intelligence after all, but the hungry wolves are not afraid of death after all. If we really want to fight, we will probably have to take out three or four of them. The clan leader Ning Lu couldn't make up his mind for a while.
At this moment, Yang Junshan, who had restrained his aura and disguised himself as a Dzogchen state, suddenly rushed in from outside the circle of wolves.
The Ning family monks received this reinforcement, and the clan leader immediately ordered a breakout, and joined forces with Yang Junshan to kill the wolves. However, only two of his disciples were injured by the giant wolves due to lack of experience. Fortunately, the injuries were not serious.
On this ice field, if there are strangers approaching the monks, usually both parties must be extremely vigilant, but Yang Junshan's action is equivalent to saving the lives of the Ning family monks. If he really has a conspiracy against them, why bother to take action? save.
Because of this, the gratitude of the Ning family and Yang Junshan's intentional closeness made the relationship between the two parties harmonious, and Yang Junshan quickly integrated into the monks of the Ning family and learned a lot about extreme matters from their mouths. The situation in the Arctic ice sheet.
Hearing everyone's laughter, Yang Junshan didn't take it seriously, but asked seriously: "I still want to ask Senior Ning for advice."
Patriarch Ning did not explain directly to Yang Junshan. Instead, he stroked his long beard and asked, "Although Taoist Brother Yang is not a monk from our Beisan County, I guess you have heard of Bingjing Yuquan. I heard that Bingjing Yuquan was here a few months ago." Actually there?"
Yang Junshan was stunned for a moment. He didn't know why Patriarch Ning mentioned the ice crystal jade spring. Could it be that the cold wave in the far north ice field was related to this.
Seeing Yang Junshan's suspicious look, Patriarch Ning smiled and continued: "The ice energy in the ice crystal jade spring can be used to purify the true energy in the monks' bodies, and every cold wave in the extreme northern ice field also contains ice energy.
into it. "
Yang Junshan said "Huh" suddenly, but then asked: "Is it true that every cold wave is accompanied by ice energy, and can it be used by monks to purify the true energy in the body like the ice crystal jade spring?"
"That is naturally impossible," Ning Hanwu, a fourth-level martial artist second only to the old patriarch among the ten martial artist monks of the Ning family, took over and said, "Only in the cold wave in the extreme northern ice field. Mixed with ice energy, this also makes the cold wave in the far north ice field extremely terrifying. If not fully prepared, even late-stage warrior monks may be frozen to death when encountering the cold wave. "
Seeing Yang Junshan's smacking expression, Ning Hanwu continued: "Furthermore, the vitality of heaven and earth in the cold wave of the extreme northern ice field is extremely mixed. Although it is mixed with the vitality of ice, the monks cannot absorb it at all. Even those with great magical powers can Suppressing and separating the ice energy in the cold wave often requires a huge price, which is not worth it. "
"Then..." Yang Junshan glanced at the other monks of the Ning family, and the expression on his face could not be more obvious. Since the cold wave is so severe, even late-stage warrior monks may not be able to survive it, so why bring these warriors in the family with them? The descendants of the early stage of the realm entered the far north ice field.
Ning Hanwu smiled proudly and said, "Brother Yang wants to ask, since the cold wave is so severe, why do we have to enter the Arctic Icefield?"
In fact, of course that's not what Yang Junshan wanted to ask. However, since he dared to bring his family's junior and middle martial arts disciples here, they must have this means of resisting the cold wave. Maybe this is their secret, so don't ask casually. Okay, so he nodded and said, "I was about to ask for advice!"
Ning Hanwu smiled and was about to speak, but he heard the clan members around him suddenly exclaimed in surprise. When the two of them heard the sound and left, they saw a ray of light flashing across the night sky in the west where everyone was camping. It is not a shooting star, but an escaping light, and at a glance, you can tell that it should be the escaping light of a real-life monk.
"This is the first time. This time during the cold wave season in the far north ice field, there are a lot of real-life monks appearing!"
Patriarch Ning has entered the far north ice field several times and experienced cold wave seasons several times, but this time he seemed a little worried.
When Yang Junshan heard this, his heart moved and he said: "Cold wave season? Will there be many real-life monks who go to the far north ice field every cold wave season?"
Patriarch Ning shook his head and said: "There will indeed be many, but there are many paths for these real monks to enter the extreme northern ice field. Usually when the cold wave season comes, it is extremely frequent to encounter the traces of real monks two or three times. , but in the five days since we entered the ice field, we have encountered the escape of real monks almost seven or eight times.
