Fourth Prince Xiao Yu suffers from a strange illness. When it acts up, he feels intensely ashamed and his heart becomes extremely humble. Even when his "moonlight" shines on him, he shrinks...
Chapter 315 Paradise
"How is it?" Xiao Yu asked in her ear.
"I see." Xu Chuchu tightened the laces, "Let's go."
Although we know that Xu Chuchu can use her spiritual power to sense her surroundings even with her eyes blindfolded, it still feels weird to be led by a blindfolded woman.
After several twists and turns, they were even on the edge of a cliff, but Xu Chuchu was able to turn back in time, making Xiao Yu's palms sweat with worry.
But after reaching the snow-capped mountains, the warm and smooth divine road that Losang mentioned did not appear, and the road they had to take became even more treacherous.
They were directed to places with strong winds and heavy snow, and were even required to climb up steep cliffs.
Moreover, the cliff was covered with snow, and I couldn't see where to put my foot down, so I could only grope my way forward bit by bit.
The wind was strong and the snow was heavy. It was impossible for ordinary people to do this. Even high-level fortune tellers could barely do it.
It seems that even with this black cloth to cover the eyes, one still has to go through the test of Tianshan Mountain.
In front of such huge and endless mountains, human beings are really as small as ants.
Because Xiao Yu only had one hand, it was inconvenient for him to climb, so Xu Chuchu tied the two of them together with a rope to prevent Xiao Yu from accidentally slipping.
The wind and snow fell in large chunks, landing on them, as if to decorate them into snowmen.
Xiao Yu looked up at Xu Chuchu who was a little above him, but was blinded by the wind and snow.
We agreed to treat my arm as fate would have it, but in the end I still took so many risks.
This thought made Xiao Yu a little depressed. They didn't know what unknown risks were waiting for them in the sky. If they had to pay a greater price to heal this arm... what was the point of all they were doing?
"...Xiao Yu? Xiao Yu!"
"Hmm?" Xiao Yu heard Xu Chuchu calling him.
"Wow, I thought something happened to you. You're much slower than before." Xu Chuchu's voice came through the wind and snow, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay. I was just a little distracted." Xiao Yu answered casually.
Xu Chuchu's whirring voice came again: "No way, you're still distracted during such a thrilling adventure?"
"Are you quite happy about this?" Xiao Yu laughed.
"Isn't that so? In fact, I used to... when I was at the highest level of cultivation, I loved adventure." Xu Chuchu didn't know where the interest came from, and told Xiao Yu some thrilling stories.
Fighting zombies for 300 rounds in an ancient tomb, or going to an abandoned hospital to subdue a ghost that had been lurking there for a century...
The more Xiao Yu listened, the more puzzled she felt: "Did this really happen to you? Why does it sound like you're talking about someone else?"
Xu Chuchu was immediately speechless: "You...see through everything but don't say it out loud, don't you understand?"
She had indeed experienced many thrilling scenes, but the weapons she fought against were modern high-tech weapons, so she had no way of telling Xiao Yu about them.
"I was wrong." Xiao Yu smiled. "Go on, I love to hear you."
He didn't know whether Xu Chuchu said this specifically to cheer him up, or whether she knew he felt guilty and deliberately said that he loved adventure.
Or both.
He only knew that Xu Chuchu was very thoughtful and gentle.
…
After climbing the steepest section of the cliff, Xu Chuchu sat down on a flat ground, and suddenly everything in front of her eyes went dark.
Why did it suddenly fail?
She hurriedly helped pull Xiao Yu up and took off the cloth strips.
The scene before her completely shocked her.
They arrived at… the summit of Mount Tianshan. The cloth had fulfilled its purpose, and was therefore no longer effective.
"This is a paradise on earth." Xiao Yu also murmured to himself.
Even though I had heard Luosang's description before, I was still shocked when I saw it with my own eyes.
This is a flat but slightly undulating land, full of vitality, birds singing and flowers blooming.
There seemed to be a huge cover in the sky, blocking the outside world.
When I looked up, I could vaguely see the howling wind and snow outside, but not a single snowflake fell.
From afar, a turquoise sky lake is embedded in the mountains, like a gem waiting to be picked.
This is a holy place protected by gods.
"It's so beautiful here." Xu Chuchu took a deep breath of the sweet air and couldn't help but sigh.
She didn't know whether it was her true psychological effect or the magic of nature on the top of Tianshan Mountain, but she actually had an urge to "live here for the rest of my life".
The two took off their thick cotton coats that were soaked by rain and snow, spread them on the ground to dry, and walked in wearing light clothes.
A white bird they had never seen before flew past them, chirping softly. A few gray rabbits stood under the tree, looking at them curiously.
All of this makes people feel happy.
After walking a few steps further, we saw the trees with golden leaves and the path paved with gems that Losang had mentioned.
This golden and shining piece almost burns people's eyes.
Here, Mr. Ma Jiang and the three Daba brothers were greatly tempted.
They picked up gold and jade crazily, and in their madness, the three brothers even had inappropriate impulses towards Alima.
Temptation and madness are the biggest traps that Tianshan has left for them.
Xu Chuchu and Xiao Yu's moods remained relatively calm, perhaps because they had anticipated all this, or perhaps because they already had more money than they could spend...
As they walked, they looked around, thinking that if they could find Alima's body, they would bury her properly.
However, I found nothing after looking all the way. I guess it’s because I’ve been here for too long and have become immersed in this paradise.
There was a clear stream in front of us, with a few fat fish swimming back and forth foolishly, and the water plants swaying like the nimble arms of a dancer.
They sat by the stream and rested for a while, scooped up some sweet stream water to quench their thirst, and almost instantly restored all their strength.
"There's a lot of spiritual energy in this water," Xu Chuchu whispered. "Be careful. The water source has spiritual energy, and powerful monsters are bound to grow around it."
After crossing the stream and looking at the scene ahead, the two were even more surprised.
The trees here also bear large, shiny fruits, but they are no longer made of gold or jade. Instead, they are translucent fruits that are filled with spiritual power.
Upon closer inspection, the outer layer of the fruit is a thin, transparent, soft layer that seems to be easily broken with a poke, and inside is a strange deep blue spiritual power.
The spiritual power in this fruit is very similar to the energy ball gathered by the great national teacher in the capital, but the spiritual power in the fruit is more peaceful and pure, without any hostility. Because of its small size, it is easier for people to absorb and has no side effects.
Looking at the tree full of spiritual fruits, to be honest, I am really tempted. After all, no one doesn't want to become stronger.
But neither Xiao Yu nor Xu Chuchu suggested picking the fruit.
Not only do I know that this is a temptation, but I also tell myself the purpose of this trip.
Their arrival was to ask for help from Tianshan, and they should not touch anything that does not belong to them.
