Chapter 171: Heaven Collapses

"Whoosh-whoosh--" A strong wind whistled past the Yunshan Mountain, and the bare branches made a creaking sound, making people wonder whether they could wait until the spring of the following year.

Occasionally, a snowball would be trapped and fall from a tree, smashing violently. It would have shattered itself, but it would also create holes on the ground, ruining the beautiful scenery.

Yunshan was always quiet at this time of year in previous years, but this year was clearly an exception, it was exceptionally lively and bustling.

After the earth-shattering rumble, everything seemed to be quiet again.

Another snowball fell, but it landed on a palm, and the cold feeling woke up the sleeping person.

The moment he regained consciousness, the first thing Su Fengzhang felt was a biting cold. His brain was frozen along with his body, and he couldn't even remember what had happened.

Years of habit saved him. After he had exhausted all his strength, a sip of spiritual spring water gave his numb body new energy. His body was recovering bit by bit. Although the spiritual spring water did not have the power to defy the will of heaven, it became a life-saving straw at this time.

The frozen body began to revive, and Su Fengzhang finally remembered what had happened.

After Liu Wei ran away, they continued to move forward. Behind them came the loud sound of an avalanche. What no one expected was that the avalanche in that area began to spread, and even though they sped up, they were still affected.

Everything happened suddenly and violently. Human power seemed so weak in the face of nature. Su Fengzhang smiled bitterly. Liu Wei was willing to sacrifice his life to stop the Xianbei pursuers, but he didn't expect that an avalanche would bury the Great Zhou delegation.

The snow was fierce and the wind was raging, the sky was frozen and the earth was closed. It took a long time for Su Fengzhang to control his body. If it were not for the effect of the spiritual spring water, he would have been frozen to death even if he woke up.

He struggled to get up, only then did he realize that he shouldn't be the only one here at this moment. At that time, they were at the end of the team, but not far from the others, and Prince Cheng was right behind him.

Su Fengzhang looked up and saw nothing but white all around him except him.

"Prince Cheng!" Su Fengzhang shouted, but no one responded except the sound of the wind. "Prince Cheng... Prince Xi... Qin Fang, He Jun... did you hear that?"

I'm afraid even if he's not dead, he must have fainted by now.

Su Fengzhang had to start searching nearby. He didn't believe that he was the only one left in the entire delegation.

The first thing to be found was the body of the horse. The horse was already dead when it fell, and now the body has been frozen into ice. If it weren't for the exposed hooves, Su Fengzhang probably wouldn't have found the horse under the snow.

Then came the corpses, including familiar faces from the delegation and experienced soldiers from the Zhenbei Army. When Su Fengzhang discovered them, he gasped and felt heavy in his heart.

He couldn't even help them bury the bodies and continue to search for possible survivors. Deep down, he was even somewhat relieved that Prince Cheng wasn't among the two dead.

Suddenly, Su Fengzhang saw a familiar corner of clothes.

Su Fengzhang walked quickly forward and quickly pushed away the snow. Soon a familiar face appeared under the snow.

Su Fengzhang's hand trembled as he reached under Prince Cheng's nostrils. When he felt the faint breath, Su Fengzhang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took out the spiritual spring water and drank it for him.

Prince Cheng's condition was obviously not good. In terms of physical fitness, Prince Cheng He Jun and he were the best among their group except for the soldiers, but they could not withstand such cold weather.

Fortunately, the avalanche they encountered was not large. Although they were washed away, the snow on their bodies was not solid, which gave them a glimmer of hope.

Prince Cheng was unable to swallow, so Su Fengzhang had to pry open his mouth and force the water down his throat. Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but after drinking the spiritual spring water, Prince Cheng's complexion seemed to look better.

Su Fengzhang gave him a whole bowl of spiritual spring water, looked around, took off his cloak and wrapped it around Prince Cheng, then continued to look for the next survivor.

But this time his luck was not so good. After finding three bodies, he made no other discoveries.

Not only He Jun and the Fourth Prince, but also several Zhenbei Army soldiers were nowhere to be seen. Considering that they were at the front of the team before, they were probably not affected by the avalanche. Su Fengzhang breathed a sigh of relief.

After returning to Prince Cheng's side, perhaps due to the effect of the spiritual spring, Prince Cheng's originally snow-white face regained some of its color.

Su Fengzhang touched his forehead, and his hand was still cold. He looked around and thought that if he stayed here, he would probably die. Even he could not survive in this ghost place.

Reaching out and dragging Prince Cheng onto his back, Su Fengzhang gritted his teeth and carried him up. When he did so, he discovered that although Prince Cheng looked tall and thin, he was not heavy, and carrying him on his back was easier than he had imagined.

The wind was like a knife, roaring as it passed over them. Su Fengzhang walked forward step by step, leaving two rows of footprints on the snow. It would probably not be long before they were covered by the falling snow again.

On the white mountain, time seemed to have lost its meaning. Only his tired body and numb legs reminded him of the passage of time. Su Fengzhang had to stop and drink a sip of spiritual spring water after walking for a while, otherwise he would not be able to hold on.

Over the years, the spiritual spring in the space has been slowly recovering, and the dripping rate has also been increasing. Otherwise, it would not be able to sustain his drinking. But even so, Su Fengzhang also felt the strength and heat in his body being lost.

Only the warm breath against his neck told him that he was not alone.

He did not die in the turbulent court, nor did he die in the power struggle among the princes, nor did he die at the hands of the ferocious and brutal Xianbei people. If he had died silently on Yunshan Mountain, wouldn't it have been too tragic to have his body exposed in the wilderness?

Thinking of those colleagues who had to be buried in the snow, Su Fengzhang felt a little sad for a moment.

No matter what, I must go back alive, Su Fengzhang thought.

Suddenly, a groan came from the person on his body. Prince Cheng coughed and finally regained consciousness: "Are you awake?"

Prince Cheng felt the warmth beneath him, and the first thing he asked after regaining consciousness was, "Where are we? Where are the others?"

"Still on Yunshan Mountain." Su Fengzhang licked the corner of his mouth and said, "Besides us, I found five bodies."

"It's a good thing that he hasn't been found." Prince Cheng said weakly. If he hasn't been found, it means he may still be alive.

After a while, Prince Cheng managed to regain some strength and asked, "Where are we going?"

It's better to have someone alive who can talk to you than to walk alone. Su Fengzhang was still in a good mood and said, "Of course, we should go to Da Zhou. If we keep going forward, and walk for three days and three nights without stopping, we will surely be able to leave Yunshan."

Prince Cheng was amused by this. He wanted to speak but coughed twice. He then said, "Master Su, I will come down and walk by myself."

Su Fengzhang frowned, touched his forehead with his backhand, frowned and said, "You have a fever!"

Prince Cheng also felt his unusually high temperature, but he smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay, I won't die for a while."

"Let me carry you on my back." Su Fengzhang insisted, "I don't want to give up halfway through saving someone."

Prince Cheng also felt that his whole body was limp, and he did not hold on any longer. He did not know how much time had passed, and the scenery around him did not seem to change at all. Prince Cheng did not know how Su Fengzhang had persisted.

He felt a little cold and depressed even when he was lying on Su Fengzhang's back, but this man just kept moving forward step by step, never faster or slower, as if he didn't know how to get tired. You know, he was carrying him on his back.

At this moment, Prince Cheng suddenly recalled many things in his mind. When he first met Su Fengzhang, he felt that this scholar was a bit smooth and cunning, as a scholar should be.

Now it seems that he is a villain.

"Lord Su, can we really leave Yunshan alive?" Prince Cheng couldn't help but ask.

Su Fengzhang paused for a moment, then continued walking forward, saying, "As long as I don't die, I can leave Yunshan alive."

Prince Cheng asked again, "Master Su, are you really not afraid?"

Su Fengzhang smiled and said, "I'm terrified. Your Majesty knows this. I have an old mother at home and younger siblings. If I die in Yunshan, who will they rely on for the rest of their lives?"

"Although Prince Rong will take care of me, I am still an outsider. Especially since I am the only biological child of my mother. If I die young like my elder brother, I am afraid she will not survive either."

After saying this, Su Fengzhang said firmly: "But precisely because of this, precisely because of fear, we must get out alive. Only by returning to the Great Zhou alive will we not have to worry about these things after our death."

Prince Cheng was silent for a long time, then suddenly said, "If I die, it might be a good thing."

Su Fengzhang didn't know why he said this, but he said, "If the prince dies, His Majesty and Empress Defei will also be sad."

Prince Cheng sneered and said, "Who knows, they might think this is a good idea."

Su Fengzhang felt strange and changed the subject, saying, "Then please live well for me, Your Majesty. If you die in Yunshan and I escape alive, I'm afraid His Majesty will be furious."

Prince Cheng didn't expect him to speak like this. Looking at the person so close to him, he suddenly laughed and said, "Well, I promise you, I will live well, and we will walk out of Yunshan alive together."

Su Fengzhang felt relieved, but he still frowned as he felt her temperature rising. "My Lord, please hold on a little longer. If I remember correctly, if you keep going forward, you'll find a resting place set up by the Zhenbei Army in half a day."

"I'm fine, Lord Su, don't worry." Prince Cheng said, seeming to be really unaffected by the high fever.
