Despite everyone's constant persuasion, Jing Shaoci still did not change his mind.

After he changed into professional search and rescue clothes, the two special assistants to the president were almost breathing oxygen on the spot.

If something happened to President Jing in the snowy mountains, even if they took out their family tree from the first line to the last line and sold it, it would not be enough to compensate the Jing family.

"Mr. Jing, what if you are exhausted halfway, we..."

The captain said this hesitantly. It's not like he has never met emotional family members who want to go with them, but he didn't expect that such a big boss like Jing Shaoci would be so irrational.

"Don't worry, I will definitely not slow you down." Jing Shaoci said expressionlessly.

At 5 pm on November 8, the search and rescue team officially set out.

They first drove an off-road vehicle to the high snowfield, and then officially started the search and rescue on foot.

Captain Sun kept paying attention to Jing Shaoci's condition at first, but when he saw that he had walked for more than an hour without saying a word, he believed what Jing Shaoci said before.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, they had reached the mountainside.

"Take a ten-minute break." When

the search and rescue team members heard this, they immediately took off their backpacks and sat down.

Jing Shaoci looked up at the top of the snow-capped mountain, his eyebrows and eyes full of melancholy.

Before he arrived, the police had retrieved the surveillance footage and saw that Yan Zixiu walked towards the snow-capped mountain after leaving the hotel, and he was never photographed coming back.

Now it has been a day and a night since Yan Zixiu disappeared. In this icy and snowy environment, no one can guarantee that he will not be in danger.

The two helicopters will arrive at the earliest tomorrow morning. If they cannot find him tonight, the next task will be even more difficult.

After a short rest, the search team set out again. As a result, when they reached a ridge, it began to snow.

Although it was only a light snow, it did increase the difficulty of the search and rescue.

As a result, after walking for more than half an hour, the snow began to get heavier. After a comprehensive judgment, Captain Sun said to Jing Shaoci earnestly: "Mr. Jing, we can't go any further. I have to be responsible for you and my team members."

He thought he would have to explain to Jing Shaoci for a while, but he didn't expect that the other party just nodded and agreed.

Captain Sun found a suitable mountain for the team members to set up tents. After everything was set up, he arranged the night shift sequence, and then asked the others to go into the tent to rest immediately.

Jing Shaoci didn't close his eyes from the time he lay in his sleeping bag until two o'clock in the morning.

How could he not know that the longer he delayed, the more dangerous Yan Zixiu's life would be.

But Captain Sun is a professional, even if he paid to hire him, he had to listen to his advice.

He kept thinking about where Yan Zixiu would be, and as he was thinking, his left ring finger suddenly felt like it was burned.

Jing Shaoci touched it with his thumb, then sat up and turned on the luminous flashlight to shine on his hand.

There was nothing.

Just when he thought it was his illusion, a voice suddenly came to his ear——

"Jing Shaoci."

Jing Shaoci suddenly widened his eyes, then immediately opened his sleeping bag and stood up.

Seeing him coming out of the tent, the night duty team member greeted him, "Mr. Jing."

Even though he knew it was impossible, he still walked over and said, "Did you hear any sound just now?"

"Sound?" The night duty team member thought about it in confusion, then shook his head and said, "Except the sound of the wind, I heard nothing."

Jing Shaoci frowned slightly, raised his eyes again and looked around.

Just as this team member said, there was no sound except the sound of the wind in the middle of the night.

Just when he was disappointed, the ring finger of his left hand was pulled up for a moment. This time Jing Shaoci was sure that it was definitely not his illusion.

"Mr. Jing, we still have to continue looking for people tomorrow, you should go back and rest early." The team member reminded.

Jing Shaoci nodded and turned to walk towards the tent.

But after returning, he did not get into the sleeping bag. Instead, he stood for a while and then began to pack his backpack.

After everything was packed, he stepped out of the tent with the lightest steps, and after walking a distance, he quickly quickened his pace.

Before leaving, Jing Shaoci left a letter of disclaimer in the tent. If he really encountered danger, it had nothing to do with Captain Sun and his team members.

Reason told him that this was definitely a wrong behavior, but for some reason, he felt that he could find Yan Zixiu.

This feeling is like the diary written by the person you secretly love is placed in front of you. You know that you shouldn't pry into the other person's privacy, but you can't control your emotions at all.

Jing Shaoci walked in the snow for a long time in the middle of the night, relying on the feeling of pulling on his ring finger.

Until the morning mist was gradually dyed red by the glow of the sunrise, the feeling in his heart began to become stronger.

Until Jing Shaoci saw the smoke rising gradually in the distance and then being blown away by the wind, he ran in that direction without thinking.

At this time, Yan Zixiu was roasting field mice.

It was his own fault. He was so focused on chasing people that he didn't bring any water or food.

Fortunately, he had already determined the opponent's position, so he decided to at least eat before fighting.

When Yan Zixiu was considering whether to go back to make a furnace of fasting pills, he suddenly looked to the west with a cold look.

"Come out!"

As soon as these two words came out, he saw a figure gradually emerging from the other side of the snow slope.

After the man climbed up completely, he shouted at him from a distance: "Yan Zixiu!!"

The voice was... Jing Shaoci? !

How could he be here?

Yan Zixiu opened his lips slightly, and looked at Jing Shaoci as if he saw a camel that only appeared in the desert.

Jing Shaoci strode towards him, took off his backpack and goggles and threw them aside, and his imposing manner seemed to be looking for a fight.

When the man came closer, Yan Zixiu said: "You..."

Before he could finish his words, Jing Shaoci actually hugged him in his arms and strangled him tightly.

Yan Zixiu subconsciously wanted to push him away, but when he heard the other party's rapid breathing beside his ear, he slowly lowered his right hand.

The two of them hugged each other for an unknown period of time before Jing Shaoci finally let go of his arm.

"Who allowed you to go up the mountain casually!"

Although he had seen the other party's indifference and disdain before, it was the first time he saw Jing Shaoci so angry.

Yan Zixiu looked at him, inexplicably short of breath, and said, "It seems so, I allowed it myself."

Several words came to his lips, but Jing Shaoci swallowed them back because of his upbringing.

Yan Zixiu looked at his expression and said hesitantly, "You are not here to find me, are you?"

Jing Shaoci frowned and gritted his teeth and said, "I'm looking for a dog."

Yan Zixiu frowned slightly and thought for a moment, then said seriously, "Then you may be looking in the wrong direction. I haven't seen any dogs along the way."

Jing Shaoci instantly felt his blood rushing up, and his breath was stuck in his chest, unable to go up or down.

Seeing that the other party seemed to be having trouble breathing, Yan Zixiu kindly advised: "Mr. Jing, take a breath and calm down."

Unexpectedly, the other party sneered when he heard this and said: "Mr. Jing? Didn't you call me by my name very nicely last time?"

When the incident in the mental hospital was mentioned, Yan Zixiu also got angry, "You accused me of being crazy, and I didn't bring up the past, why are you still making a fuss?"

Jing Shaoci continued to sneer, "You are not crazy, then why did you run to this mountain alone?"

"I was looking for something." Yan Zixiu answered righteously.

Jing Shaoci took a deep breath, "What is more important than your life?!"

Yan Zixiu replied without thinking: "Of course it's your life."

After the voice fell, the two suddenly fell into a strange silence.

Jing Shaoci quickly calmed down and reflected on himself. He really shouldn't be so cruel to a patient. Finding the patient back is the best outcome.

Yan Zixiu was a little annoyed that he blurted out this. He could just find the spirit and secretly put it back to Jing Shaoci. The short-lived ghost was just an unprovoked disaster. Why should he argue with him?

Thinking of this, he also knew that he had to say something.

"Sorry."

"Sorry."

The two spoke at the same time, and then they were stunned for a moment.

Jing Shaoci first looked away and said, "Let's go down the mountain first."

At this time, Yan Zixiu grabbed his hand, and then began to breathe in and out, and then inhale again, until his face and ears turned red, and then he gritted his teeth and said with great difficulty: "You, you kiss my eyes."

If there is a second way, even if it means going through mountains of knives and seas of fire, entering dragons and tigers' dens, he will never choose this.

But only by temporarily lending his spiritual eyes to Jing Shaoci and letting him see the soul-extinguishing line on his two ring fingers, will the other party believe his words.

But Yan Zixiu seriously overlooked a problem, that is, Jing Shaoci would never kiss him.

Jing Shaoci looked at him and made what he thought was the biggest concession, "Kiss me when we get home."

No matter what, he had to coax Yan Zixiu down the mountain first.

"Must..." Yan Zixiu endured and endured, and finally squeezed out the last three words from his throat, "Kiss now."

Jing Shaoci looked at him and suddenly fell silent for a long time.

Maybe Yan Zixiu really liked him in the past.

Even if he had schizophrenia, he couldn't let go of this obsession with him.

Thinking of this, Jing Shaoci was inexplicably relieved in an instant.

Just treat them as brother and brother, Yan Zixiu's life is more important.

Thinking of this, he let out a breath, then raised his hand and placed it on Yan Zixiu's shoulder.

But just as he was approaching slowly, the other party suddenly pushed him away, "Wait!"

After saying these two words, Yan Zixiu turned around suddenly, pinched the Dow finger and said silently in his heart: Master, Master, I am ashamed of your teachings, but now there is no other way, I hope you can forgive me.

When he turned around again, Jing Shaoci suddenly found that his eyes were a little red.

"You are so excited?"

Yan Zixiu's mentality was now in a mess, and he couldn't hear anything, so he just lowered his eyes slightly and said in a dejected tone: "Kiss it."

Jing Shaoci clenched his fingers, then took a deep breath, and then quickly kissed him on the right eye.

At this moment, Jing Shaoci felt that his eyes suddenly became blurred, and everything seemed to be covered by a layer of black veil, and he couldn't see clearly.

He shook his head and then blinked hard.

Why did he go blind just by kissing Yan Zixiu's eyes?

When Jing Shaoci saw clearly again, Yan Zixiu had raised his left hand to him.

"Do you know why you have a short life? Because you are missing a soul."

Jing Shaoci was shocked, and then looked down at his left hand in a trance.

There was a long reddish-brown line connecting the ring fingers of the two of them.

After a few minutes, Yan Zixiu, who finally explained the whole story, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, although this incident was not caused by me, we will definitely eliminate those who practice evil arts."

When he said this, he emphasized the word "I". After all, this incident was done by the original owner, and he just wanted to put an end to this cause and effect.

After saying this, Yan Zixiu turned back to the fire and put the half-roasted field mouse on the fire.

Jing Shaoci digested it for a long time, looked at the thread on his left hand again and again, and then said with difficulty: "So you, have never been crazy?"

"Mr. Jing, that has always been your own speculation."

He didn't care about it now. After all, the other party was such an ordinary person, and he knew there was danger and still went up the mountain to save him, so let's forget about the past.

When the field mice were almost roasted, he stood up and handed one to Jing Shaoci and said, "After you finish eating, you can go down the mountain first."

Jing Shaoci looked at his face and said, "Let's go together."

Yan Zixiu opened his mouth to say something, but after thinking for a moment, he stuffed the branch into the other's hand and said, "Eat first."

The two of them ate bite by bite, and when half of the field mouse was gone, Jing Shaoci suddenly reacted and said, "What kind of animal is this?"

Yan Zixiu chewed it for a few times and swallowed the meat in his mouth, and said naturally, "Field mouse."

Jing Shaoci: ...

A few minutes later, Yan Zixiu explained helplessly, "I didn't know you didn't eat it."

Jing Shaoci, with a livid face, gritted his teeth and questioned, "Who would eat a mouse?!"

"That's a field mouse, and its meat is edible. Didn't you think it was good at first?"

When Jing Shaoci heard him say this, he felt his stomach churning, and he clenched his fists to hold back and not vomit.

At this moment, the soul-extinguishing line connecting the two people's hands suddenly moved, and Yan Zixiu's eyes became sharp in an instant.

The two looked at each other and immediately stood up and chased in the southwest direction.

They chased to a narrow valley, and Yan Zixiu suddenly raised his hand to stop Jing Shaoci.

"Wait."

This place is just the entrance, but it is filled with such a strong yin energy. There must be something extremely powerful inside.

"You stay here, I will go alone."

The two seemed to have a tacit understanding. Even if Yan Zixiu didn't say it, Jing Shaoci knew that it would be useless if he followed.

"Be careful."

Yan Zixiu nodded seriously, "I'll be back soon." As

soon as the voice fell, two small paper figures fell from his sleeves and ran inside at a fast speed.

The terrain of this valley is extremely secretive, and even people who have been here once may not be able to find it.

Yan Zixiu walked in step by step, and the deeper he went, the heavier the yin energy became.

At this moment, the two paper figures who were exploring the way ahead suddenly lost contact with him.

Yan Zixiu's expression gradually became solemn. Someone had set up a soul-sealing formation here.

Originally, this formation was only used to trap wronged souls, making it impossible for them to find a way out forever, and it would gradually dissipate over the years.

But the yin energy in this valley was almost dense enough to become fog, and it didn't look like collecting ghosts at all, but more like...

raising evil spirits.

At this moment, all the clues were connected to one place.

Jing Shaoci was the order of the Nine Lights Emperor. Wherever the purple energy on his body went, all ghosts would avoid him.

This person teamed up with the original owner and took away one of Jing Shaoci's souls, intending to use it to cultivate evil spirits.

Although the essence of the soul carries purple energy, if it is refined by special methods, the evil spirits cultivated will no longer be afraid of any extremely yang energy.

In this way, there will be no way to subdue it in this world, and it will be enough to cause disasters.

No matter what the reason, Yan Zixiu must not sit idly by.

Just when the surrounding Yin energy was about to swallow him, Yan Zixiu pinched the Taiqing Sutra with his hand and drew a talisman in the air with two fingers of his right hand.

"A spiritual talisman, worship the devil without a trace, dare to disobey, the heavenly soldiers are on the way, command!"

Wherever the evil-killing talisman emitting golden light went, the Yin energy quickly dissipated, just like ice melting into gas, and it all disappeared in the blink of an eye.

But Yan Zixiu frowned at this time, feeling more and more weird.

How could the opponent break through so easily after exerting so much effort?

Just when he was confused, a cracking sound suddenly came from above his head. Although the sound was a bit far away, it was so clear because of the silence in the mountain.

When he looked up, the valley began to shake slightly.

Realizing what was about to happen, Yan Zixiu immediately ran out of the valley, but no matter how fast he ran, he could not catch up with the avalanche.

At this time, Jing Shaoci ran in from outside, and the moment he saw Yan Zixiu, he grabbed his wrist and ran out.

At this time, the shaking of the valley was more obvious, and the cracking sounds around were getting more and more frequent.

Just when the two were about to run out, a two-meter-high ice wall suddenly fell to the right of Yan Zixiu.

The danger happened too quickly, and by the time he reacted, Jing Shaoci had already used his back to hold the ice wall.

With such a heavy weight on his body, Jing Shaoci still squeezed out a word from between his teeth and said, "Run."

Yan Zixiu was in danger for him, and no matter what the reason, he couldn't let him die here.

At this time, Yan Zixiu looked at Jing Shaoci, and the whole person seemed to be stupid all of a sudden.

"I told you to run!" Jing Shaoci shouted loudly.

Yan Zixiu looked at the blue veins on his forehead, and suddenly closed his eyes after he came to his senses.

"The universe is inverted, and a single step will take you thousands of miles."

After reciting the spell, Yan Zixiu raised his palm and pushed it hard on Jing Shaoci's chest. "Quick!"

The next second, Jing Shaoci disappeared from the spot.

He only had enough spiritual power to perform the art of shrinking the earth into an inch once.

At this time, Yan Zixiu stood in the valley where an avalanche was about to hit, but the corners of his lips slightly raised.

It turned out that in addition to his master and uncle, there was another person who was willing to protect him with his life.

But Yan Zixiu himself forgot that he could have used magic to leave directly, but he still ran towards the valley entrance.

Just like Jing Shaoci walked in the opposite direction, the two of them were stupid.

When Jing Shaoci appeared on the eastern side of the mountainside, the snow on the west peak also fell down, covering the entire valley.
