Chapter 86 Legend
After hearing this, Qiao Su Luo and Chu Mo Yuan looked at each other, and there was a solemn look in their eyes.
"There are orcs here?"
"That's not right. It's not winter. This is the south, and it's spring."
If Chu Moyuan hadn't been here, she would have suspected that she was hallucinating.
Chu Moyuan also realized that something was amiss here. Not only was it snowing, but someone was actually talking about winter. He said, "Let's take a look first."
Qiao Su Luo quickly got up and walked to the entrance of the cave. Chu Moyuan held her to prevent her from accidentally falling in.
Qiao Su Luo moved towards the entrance of the cave and looked out. Through the wind and snow, she saw four orcs wearing animal skins.
They were carrying a wild beast and walking in one direction.
"Something's wrong. Why are the orcs here still wearing animal skins?"
Today, the Beast World has developed a certain level of civilization, and the Dajing Dynasty has entered the feudal society of the Beast World. Although it is still very backward, people no longer wear animal skins. Even in the cold northern regions, the beastmen are accustomed to wearing clothes.
Qiao Su Luo looked at these, with deep doubts and a sense of uneasiness flashing in her eyes.
Chu Moyuan said solemnly, "Secret Realm."
"What did you say?"
Chu Moyuan looked outside, his brows furrowed tightly, "We must have accidentally entered the secret realm."
"It is said that the secret realm of the Ancient Secret Forest is completely isolated from the outside world. It is a world of its own."
Qiao Su Luo's eyelashes trembled, and she was stunned for a moment, "So those orcs are the native inhabitants of this secret land?"
Chu Moyuan shook his head and said, "Rumor has it that there are no orcs in the secret realm, only chance and destiny."
Qiao Su Luo was full of doubts, "What about these orcs?"
Chu Moyuan concentrated and said, "You wait in the cave first. I'll go over and investigate. If anything happens to me, you find a way to leave on your own."
It is unknown whether those orcs are friends or enemies, but they cannot just wait here. They need to figure out a lot of things. If it is really a winter with abnormal climate and they cannot go out for the time being, it is better for them to join the tribe and spend the winter.
Qiao Su Luo grabbed his sleeve and said, "I'll go with you. Maybe I can be of some help."
Chu Moyuan felt it was too dangerous to go together, but Qiao Suluo insisted, so Chu Moyuan had no choice but to take her with him.
But when they followed the sound and found the four orcs, "Brothers..."
Chu Moyuan was talking to them, but they seemed not to see him and just walked past them.
"What's going on?"
Chu Moyuan tried several times, but it was the same every time, and they couldn't touch the four orcs at all.
"This is not only a secret place, it may also be an illusion."
Qiao Su Luo looked at the four orcs and said, "Are they the orcs from the illusion?"
Chu Moyuan didn't say anything, and no one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
Qiao Su Luo was even more anxious to find Bai Qianluo at this moment. She suddenly seemed to think of something. There was a dark aura on Bai Qianluo. She used her purification ability to sense it, and maybe she could sense it.
She sensed it and the seedlings of purification power stretched toward the north.
"Let's go find Bai Qianluo first. He should be not far away."
Because of the raging wind and snow, it was indeed difficult for them to tell the direction and walk, but with the help of the purification seedlings, Qiao Su Luo found Bai Qianluo in a short while.
At this time, Bai Qianluo was almost covered by the snow. He lay motionless in the snow pile, as if he had been frozen into an ice sculpture.
"Bai Qianluo, Bai Qianluo..."
Qiao Su Luo called out to him but there was no response, so she quickly used her healing and purification abilities.
But after using it, his body should have recovered, but there was still no response.
Chu Moyuan said: "The snow here is getting heavier, let's go back to the cave first."
As he spoke, Chu Moyuan transformed into a snake and wrapped up Bai Qianluo.
As soon as Chu Moyuan rolled up Bai Qianluo and moved his body away, the leaves underneath were revealed. When Qiao Suluo saw it, her eyes lit up.
“Wild Polygonatum.”
"This is real, not an illusion, right?"
Qiao Su Luo reached out and started digging, and she was able to touch it.
After she dug it out, the system immediately said, "Ding, 2.6 jin (2.6 kg) of wild Polygonatum odoratum detected, 1 liang (2 points), host, are you willing to sell it?"
Qiao Su Luo was extremely excited when she heard what the system said.
"sell."
After Qiao Su Luo confirmed the sale, seventy-six points were immediately transferred to the system mall account.
Qiao Su Luo was so excited that she almost cried.
When Chu Moyuan rolled up Bai Qianluo and then rolled her up, he saw her eyes were red and thought that she was so sad because she was worried about Bai Qianluo.
Chu Moyuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Don't be sad, he should be fine."
Qiao Su Luo nodded.
It was indeed very tiring for Chu Moyuan to lead them back to the cave in the wind and snow. After arriving at the cave, Chu Moyuan was exhausted and leaned against the wall to rest, his face even paler.
Qiao Su Luo went to check on Bai Qianluo's condition and took his pulse to confirm that Bai Qianluo was fine, he just fell asleep and would be fine after waking up.
Chu Moyuan looked at the increasingly strong wind and snow outside, and did not dare to rest, so he stood up and said: "Bai Qianluo should be awake soon. With him here, you should be fine. I'm going to go hunt some prey."
Qiao Su Luo quickly took out a small pot of coal and food from the space and said, "Don't go hunting. It's too dangerous outside. I have food here."
Fortunately, she had seventy-six points in the space, so she didn't need to use too many points to exchange things in the space mall. Seventy-six points were enough.
Chu Moyuan looked at Qiao Su Luo with shock.
He knew she had secrets, but he didn't expect so many. He thought he knew enough, but she always brought new surprises.
Chu Moyuan didn't know what to say.
"I'll cook some noodles first."
In the past, Qiao Su Luo would not have dared to reveal these things.
But now she and Chu Moyuan are sharing life and death, and she believes in him.
In fact, what Qiao Su Luo took out was instant noodles. Instant noodles are relatively cheap and tasty, and drinking some soup can warm the body.
So let’s eat instant noodles first.
“Huff…”
The wind and snow were raging outside, and coal was burning in the cave, emitting a warm feeling.
While cooking instant noodles, Bai Qianluo also woke up.
The first thing he did when he woke up was to go to Qiao Su Luo and look her up and down nervously. "Wife, how are you? Are you hurt? Are you feeling unwell?"
Qiao Su Luo said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
After making sure Qiao Su Luo was okay, Bai Qianluo hugged her in his arms.
His memory remained at the scene where he was swallowed by the vortex. It was he who failed to protect her.
When he woke up and saw that she was fine, Bai Qianluo felt like he had survived a disaster.
Qiao Su Luo explained the current situation to Bai Qianluo.
Bai Qianluo listened to these words, and his cold brows became solemn. "I once heard a legend that is different from the legend of the Ancient Secret Forest we are hearing now."
"What is it?"
"It is said that a thousand years ago, a great war broke out in the snowy regions of the northern Beast World. Dark creatures invaded the continent and slaughtered the orcs. Just as the orcs were about to be annihilated, a Snow Region orc with innate magical powers used a unique secret method to seal the dark creatures. As for whether this Snow Region orc is alive or dead, no one knows. Some say he fell into a deep sleep, while others say he sacrificed himself."
"Perhaps the orc you saw earlier was the original inhabitant of the Snow Region thousands of years ago. It is said that the gifted orc also possessed ice and snow abilities."
