Chapter 62: Ice Cold Season 04: Hot Spring Bath
Flying in the air, the snow scenery below my feet passed by like a passing tourist.
Lying on the Frost Dragon Mother, Jiang Runian could vaguely see groups of frozen players in the snow. Some looked up to drink water, some looked like they were about to attack, and some were even sitting happily around the campfire. It was just that the natural disaster happened too quickly and they didn't have time to react.
Jiang Ruinian whispered to the Frost Dragon Mother: "Big Ice, fly lower."
The Dragon Mother understood what he meant and immediately lowered her body and flew low over the ground.
Now, the health bar of the frozen player is much more prominent.
Fortunately, they are all alive.
However, there was a debuff that had never been seen before in the status bar below the health bar.
【Frostbite】
Heat source, I need heat source!
(34h42min left until limb necrosis)
The cold season has been here for thirteen or fourteen hours. According to this calculation, players need to remove the frostbite debuff within 48 hours, otherwise limb necrosis or even death will follow.
Jiang Runian stopped by a bonfire and tried to light it. But the bonfire was already wet with ice and snow, and the flint and straw she brought could only produce a little white smoke, which was not enough to be a heat source. She sighed, and it turned out that natural disasters were not that simple.
I think Li Cheng's teammates are in a similar situation. If we want to rescue them, we need a sufficiently warm heat source.
After observing several more groups of frozen players, when she returned to Qingshan Inn, Xiaolu had already gone home early to lie down and rest.
The Frost Dragon Mother spread her wings. Her body was larger than Little Green and Little Blue combined. As soon as she landed on the open space in front of the inn, she caused a commotion.
"…What is this? Boss Jiang, you came back after beating a dragon?!"
"Who understands the feeling of redemption I get from seeing a real dragon in the end times..."
"Boss Jiang, you won't let any of them go, whether they are walking on the ground, swimming in the sea, or flying in the sky!"
Li Cheng mixed in the crowd.
If he remembered correctly, the Dragon City Adventure Team also had a mission to find dragons...
Sure enough, the next second Jiang Runian called his name: "Li Cheng, I met someone from your Sixth Adventure Team."
"Team Six... should be led by Team Cheng," Li Cheng said excitedly. "Did you mention me to her? What did they say?"
"Oops," Jiang Ruonian tapped his head, pretending, "I forgot to mention it."
Li Cheng: “…”
Jiang Runian added: "However, I invited them to visit Qingshan Inn. After all, the Frost Dragon Mother they wanted is now in my hands."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
After what happened to Li Cheng, the guests who were staying in the inn also found out that he was from Dragon City. That meant... Boss Jiang had just snatched the dragon from the Dragon City Adventure Team? !
That’s Dragon City!
The distant and economically prosperous Dragon City!
Unconsciously, a strange kind of group cohesion appeared in the players in the southwest region.
Who says Longcheng is strong? Their boss Jiang from the southwest region is even stronger than Longcheng!

On the open space, the super luxurious carriage that Chu Yu built on the Frost Dragon Mother has entered the final stage.
Chu Yu took into account many suggestions from the guests of Qingshan Inn for the ice car. When the guests saw the Dragon Mother, they started talking about airplanes and helicopters, and even drew a schematic diagram for Chu Yu. Chu Yu thought that this would save a lot of time and effort, so he gladly accepted it.
Jiang Runian was feeding the Dragon Mother candied haws - it was strange that a leader-level BOSS did not eat meat or vegetables, but loved sweets.
She was absent-minded for a rare moment, mumbling: "Heat source... where can I get a warmer heat source..."
Chu Yu, who was obsessed with the transformation, poked his head out and said, "Why, is the heater I gave you not enough?"
Jiang Runian honestly explained the tragic scene he saw on the road today.
Chu Yu put down the hammer and touched his chin: "It's freezing outside. It's really difficult to generate heat under such conditions... ordinary heat sources are definitely not enough. We have to rely on things unique to this world."
After surviving in "Infinite Tomorrow" for so many days, Chu Yu has almost figured out the mechanisms here.
This place is not like the mortal world where everything has its own rules; nor is it like the world of immortals where everything can be solved with spiritual power.
Here we rely on "superpowers".
Relying on a mysterious energy that they had never seen before.
Whether it's cooking, elixirs, mounts, or the super-super-large bombs she worked so hard to build, they are all related to this energy. They must strengthen their connection with this energy, rather than just encountering, accepting, and then solving it.
"Anian," Chu Yu suddenly said, "maybe we can let Lao Bai and Yin Shuang go out and explore the way."
"No, it's very dangerous outside. You all stay in the inn. Sui Yan and I will go--"
"How long will it take you to find out by yourself?"
Chu Yu raised the hammer again and hammered on the translucent design to perfect the details. He said calmly, "Qingshan Inn doesn't lack one or two pairs of eyes watching over us now. It's time for you to take off some of the burden, An Nian."
Jiang Runian didn't say anything.
She knew Chu Yu's temper too well. Chu Yu never asked about the sect's affairs, but once he did, he would make the final decision.
You see, she is holding a hammer in her hand.
Jiang Runian was silent for a moment, then he sighed and said, "I understand, Elder Yu. I will go talk to Master and Senior Sister and ask them to go out and dig up more materials."
Maybe, just like the accidental discovery that the blood moon crystal core can be used as a harm-avoiding medicine, we have discovered a material that can provide a sufficient heat source?

It will take some time for Chu Yu to renovate the new shuttle bus, but the blue and green buses have resumed operations.
Qin Fang, who had just returned from Mingzhu Town, rubbed his hands and trembled as soon as he got out of the car: "Oh my God, the attacks of these ice zombies are really freezing."
Even in the coldest weather, we cannot stop the work of killing zombies and earning gold coins.
Zheng Xuan, who came to Qingshan Inn from Senmin, also agreed: "Yes, I used to spend most of the day in the monster farm, but now I have to go home after two hours."
"How could you go home? You came straight to the hot springs!"
“Don’t worry about the details.”
As he spoke, Zheng Xuan handed the hot spring number plate to Li Fu for registration - she had managed to get it with great difficulty!
As soon as the new poster of Qingshan Inn was posted, it caused an uproar.
Warm winter hot spring? !
Is there a limit on the number of people?!
Players from various settlements, wrapped up like bears, lined up to take the bus, hoping to grab a hot spring number plate.
People who come to Qingshan Inn for the first time are worried that they won’t be able to get a room, so they simply order a table of afternoon tea and eat while waiting; people who have been to Qingshan Inn before are worried that they won’t be able to get a room, so they simply book a room. Since they all stay here, they deserve to be able to get a room!
Jiang Runian looked at the densely packed crowds outside the hot spring area and smiled with satisfaction.
If the hot spring didn't require so many ingredients, she would have wanted to order a few more.
Zheng Xuan came in second and was extremely excited.
Fortunately, she had reserved a number plate early through Furong Letter Delivery, otherwise she would have to watch like the group of people behind her.
Finally, Zheng Xuan walked in with great excitement.
Entering the elegant bamboo gate of the hot spring area, walking along a cobblestone path, you can see light pink mist rising up after a few steps. When you get closer, you can see a few glowing lotus flowers floating on the water.
Zheng Xuan was stunned.
Before the end of the world, she had soaked in hot springs before, including private hot springs, mixed hot springs, natural hot springs, and artificial hot springs...
But a pink hot spring... this was the first time she had seen one!
The first group of guests who were taking a hot spring bath also stopped and looked incredulous.
But this is Qingshan Inn. They have seen too many incredible things in Qingshan Inn. What is a pink hot spring?
Zheng Xuan took off her outer clothes, put on the two-piece swimsuit she bought at the beach commercial district, and immersed her taut muscles in the warm spring water.
In just a moment, his face, which had been frozen just now, turned rosy, and his ten fingers, which were almost unable to bend, became soft.
Zheng Xuan couldn't help but sigh in comfort: "Ah... so satisfying..."
When the others saw that Zheng Xuan, a long-time customer, had gone in, they also jumped in like a hen laying eggs.
After soaking for ten minutes, someone stood up with a flushed face and prepared to order a pot of tea.
Suddenly, he found a buff he had never seen before appeared above his head——
[So satisfying]
Effect: All attributes +10, cold resistance +50%, can be stacked with any buff, lasts for 12 hours.
…
…………
Where does the cold resistance attribute come from?! It can also be stacked with any buff?! Doesn't that mean it can be stacked with food attributes and [Sleep Super Sweet]?!
You are a weakling before entering the inn, but become invincible after leaving the inn!
Boss Jiang, you have done a great deed! !
Outside the hot spring area, Jiang Ruonian was carrying a basket full of pink-gold solids and gave a thumbs up: "Second Brother, you prepared an anti-cold medicine so quickly, that's amazing."
Speaking of Feng Yuechen, he should have been the most famous figure in Qingshan Sect back then - a good reputation, not including the bad reputation like Chu Yu who was hated by everyone.
He traveled around the country to help the people, and the elixirs he made were distributed to the common people for free. Not only that, he would also visit those who were seriously ill and barely breathing, and he would perform acupuncture and cupping without saying a word, saving countless lives.
"No, no, no," Feng Yuechen said honestly, "Thanks to Master and Senior Sister for finding the geothermal crystal core."
Chu Yu was right. It was indeed inefficient for her to take care of the inn and explore at the same time. She had only asked Bai Yexuan and Liu Yinshuang to go out and explore for an afternoon, and they had already brought back a geothermal core - a material dropped by a moving monster made of frozen soil and rocks.
Feng Yuechen used geothermal crystal cores, moonlight mushrooms, dragon mother saliva and other materials to prepare medicinal bath stones at the speed of light.
It happened that the hot spring was open today, so Jiang Runian threw it in to try out the effect.
Jiang Runian had originally prepared some refreshments, and wanted to ask each customer about their experience after they had finished bathing. But now it was unnecessary - the exclamations from the hot spring had already reached her and other customers' ears.
"Ahhhh Boss Jiang, you are truly my God!"
"Why are there only single-use cards for the hot spring?! I want a yearly package. Did you hear me? I! Want! A! Yearly package!"
"Damn it! I really want to move the hot spring back to my house!"
The customers who were still queuing outside were scratching their heads after hearing this - could the tea be served faster? They couldn't wait any longer!
