After going upstream, it goes downstream again.

The scenery along the way was naturally the same, since we had already seen all the sights we wanted to see.

Moreover, after visiting Tianjing Township and seeing such strange scenery, even the most magnificent mountains and rivers here didn't seem so interesting anymore.

Running from the source to the end of the river, for the Qijiang River's circumference, this is equivalent to crossing a state, and it is estimated that it will go from Zhongzhou to another place.

Of course, this place is not the Eastern Wilderness.

Although Wu Er had the saying "the great river flows eastward" in his previous life, that only applies to his previous life.

The most accurate way to put it is that water flows downhill.

Since the central plains are generally high, the rivers in each fixed direction disperse in all directions, and whichever side they land on is considered the destination.

At the end of the Qijiang River, Wu Er had no idea where he would stop.

Although he had looked at the map beforehand, he couldn't understand it at all... so it seems that this immortal's reading ability needs improvement.

Since we don't know where to stop, let's go and see. Anyway, there's free labor to pull the boat forward, and we don't have to fly it ourselves.

With such conditions, why not enjoy them?

Driven by the Jiangshen speedboat, after leaving white waves on the river for several days, we successfully reached the end of the Qijiang River.

I finally know where Qijiangwei is.

Look around here, it's freezing cold, and your breath can freeze into a pile of ice crystals.

Such a cold place can only be the northern Xinjiang region.

This place is truly a paradise of ice and snow, with hardly any animals around.

And so we finally know how the Qi River stopped flowing, because the Qi River has been spreading all the way into the central part of northern Xinjiang and even deeper.

The edges of this place are extremely cold, and as you go deeper into the central part, the Qijiang River freezes over.

Such a large river, such a wide surface, was frozen solid!

Even if you told me, no one would really believe you.

So, it goes without saying how cold it is in northern Xinjiang.

Because of the cold, the number of living beings is naturally smaller, even smaller compared to the Western Regions which are full of yellow sand.

"Immortal, this is probably the tail."

Looking at the frozen landscape ahead, the river god of Qijiang said with a hint of helplessness.

Wu Er briefly checked the surrounding temperature and then exclaimed, "It's really cold here."

It is indeed cold here, but it feels out of place coming from Wu Er's mouth...

Because he was only wearing a white shirt, and he was even shaking his clothes out in the freezing cold.

This doesn't look cold at all! It's clearly hot!

"Xiuer, how are you feeling? It's cold, but for cultivators like us, it's still bearable, right?"

No sooner had Wu Er finished talking about the cold than he asked this question.

Upon hearing this, Han Qingxiu understood what it meant.

As the master, Wu Er said he could still hold on, right?

As an apprentice, one cannot deny it.

So Han Qingxiu, shivering, forced back her trembling teeth and said, "Yes, disciple... I'm not cold!"

Goodness, he said he wasn't cold, but his body was practically trembling into the river.

Wu Er picked at his ear and said, "Can't hear me, can't hear me? You think you can operate a warship by speaking so softly?"

Seeing his apprentice putting on a brave face, Wu Er got playful again and came up with another joke.

Although nobody understands this meme.

Although Han Qingxiu didn't understand the origin of the meme, she still recognized the phrase "I can't see you."

So Han Qingxiu, enduring the intense cold, said, "I'm not cold!"

Perhaps because the voice was louder, the mouth was also wider open.

Here, as soon as she opened her mouth wide, a gust of cold wind rushed in, causing Han Qingxiu to cough a few times.

Wu Er nodded, then shouted, "Very good! Very spirited!"

That concludes my statement. It would be even better if some familiar tunes from my hometown were played now...

Ahem, let's not talk about that for now.

Although he had teased his apprentice, Wu Er couldn't bear to see Han Qingxiu freezing in the cold wind.

So he secretly cast a spell, giving Han Qingxiu a buff that maxed out cold resistance.

"Hey, why isn't it cold anymore all of a sudden?"

After Wu Er finished casting the spell, Han Qingxiu's body stopped trembling.

Han Qingxiu was puzzled by this situation and put her hand out into the air to feel the strong wind blowing by.

The wind was strong and carried many ice crystals, but she didn't feel cold at all.

"What really happened?"

Not only do I no longer feel cold, but I also no longer exhale large puffs of white breath when I speak.

Han Qingxiu was surprised.

Wu Er pretended not to know what was going on and said with great surprise, "Xiuer, you don't feel cold? Sigh... young people are so energetic, you don't feel cold even in such a freezing place."

After saying all this, Wu Er turned his back to Han Qingxiu and said in a weathered tone, "Alas... it seems that your master is really getting old."

This really stumped Han Qingxiu.

Master doesn't know? Wasn't it him who did it?

Han Qingxiu patted her body again, thinking: If it wasn't Master who did it, then why am I not cold? Could it be that I've awakened some kind of bloodline talent?

Well, it seems this kid might have been frozen silly. With Wu Er's clumsy acting skills, who can believe him?

Aside from these two, the most pitiful one is Jiang Shen.

Jiang Shen didn't possess the great supernatural powers of Wu Er to withstand such severe cold, nor did he have the extreme cold resistance that Han Qingxiu had, so he could only stand aside and endure the cold.

That's not the worst part. The worst part is that because Wu Er was there, they didn't dare to tremble even though they were supposed to be cooling down!

Jiang Shen was also careful, afraid of incurring Wu Er's displeasure.

"Alright, Xiuer, let's get off the boat."
