Reborn as a short-lived loli who can only live for three years

The next day, they made it a priority to explore the snowy mountains.

According to Yu Liu, when they went deep into the snow-capped mountains, they heard strange musical instruments. The sound was like ethereal wind music or distant string music, and was very mysterious.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, there were still soft snowflakes floating in the air. As they climbed higher and higher, the wind around them became stronger and the snowflakes flew faster and faster.

Gradually, the front of the field of vision became white and it was difficult to tell the direction.

They also made full preparations for this climb.

Mi Xiaolu put a heat preservation rune and a windproof rune on each of them, a total of eight. After finishing the painting, his magic power became a little scarce.

The effect of the rune is not very strong, but it is enough.

In addition, Mi Xiaolu got up early to pick up a suitable branch for each of them to use as a trekking pole. When he came back, he cooked vegetable soup for breakfast so that they could eat and drink enough before setting off again.

This made Ying feel embarrassed again, and she even wanted to pay Mi Xiaolu his wages.

……

"Yu Liu, are you sure everything is okay? I always feel like we're going to be in trouble." Ying narrowed her eyes again, trying to look at the road ahead.

The snow is getting heavier.

With every step they took, the footprints they left behind would be instantly covered by the blizzard, and nothing could be seen around them except white. As long as they were more than one meter apart, they would definitely get separated.

Yu Liu was very calm.

"I thought the same thing yesterday. Just when I was about to give up the exploration and return the same way, I heard that voice."

In other words, this is inevitable weather.

"The wind and snow up there were so strong that we could hardly move forward, so we had to go down the mountain," Mi Xiaolu explained.

There was clearly something at the top of the mountain.

This time they have to put all their efforts into breaking through the wind and snow to reach the top of the mountain.

"Um……"

As they climbed, Ivy also sensed a magical reaction.

The blizzard around her greatly affected the spread of her magic power, causing the detection range to be much smaller than usual.

But based on this point, since she sensed the result, it means that she is very close to that mysterious voice.

'jingle--'

A clear, ethereal sound mixed with the whistling wind and came across vaguely.

"Did you hear it?" Yu Liu, who was most sensitive to the sound of the wind, immediately caught the faint sound.

"Ah?" Ying asked again loudly.

She was nearly deafened by the strong wind.

"It's right up there!" Yu Liu gestured while walking upwards against the wind.

A stronger blizzard seemed to be hovering near the top of the mountain, pushing him back.

"Young Master." Mi Xiaolu immediately supported him, and the two of them stood against the wind together, but still could not move forward.

'jingle--'

The sound was as clear as a wind chime, floating lightly and then instantly swallowed up by the strong wind.

The windproof rune finally broke under the heavy load after being blown for a long time. Suddenly, a stronger storm almost blew them off the mountain.

"Ahhh..." Yingyouyou's voice was instantly drowned out by the wind and snow.

Suddenly - the snow around them condensed into a wall, quickly closing in towards the center and covering them underneath.

The wind and snow were suddenly blocked out, and my ears became quiet in an instant.

Under Ivy's deliberate manipulation, the hemispherical snow fort seemed to have grown legs underneath, carrying them slowly upwards, like a mobile bunker.

They were able to catch their breath.

"The blocking force is very strong. We came to the right place this time."

“Cold, cold, cold…” Ying shivered again as she squeezed closer to Ivy.

Ivy couldn't spare any extra energy at this moment. She was concentrating on manipulating the snow castle forward. Fighting against such a strong blizzard consumed a lot of magic power.

Just as Mi Xiaolu was about to roll a small fireball, Yu Liu immediately stopped her.

At this moment, they were not in an ordinary snow castle, but in the belly of a fantasy creature. They were rubbing fireballs around. What if some part that melted happened to be the core of the creature? Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

As if after a long time, the sound of the wind outside suddenly became quieter.

Ivy finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"arrive."

A hole suddenly appeared in the snow castle, revealing the scene outside.

There was a vast expanse of white snow outside. The snow on the top of the mountain had stopped snowing, and a clean, bright light was flashing on the flat snow surface.

They emerged from the hole one after another.

"Ding-ling-ling——" The crisp and ethereal sound is close to my ears.

The source of the sound is right in front of us.

Snow Castle moved with his stubby legs to the open space next to him, as if he was looking for a parking space for himself.

“These are—” Looking at the scene in front of him, Yu Liu opened his eyes wide.

The lavender bare branches all over the mountain were swaying gently in the breeze, making an ethereal melody of "ding-ling-ling", which was quite discordant.

"What are these?" Mi Xiaolu had never seen this kind of plants before.

"This is the Otowa tree." Yu Liu, who was also studying hard in the Magic Potion Garden, naturally recognized many plants. "It will remember the sound it hears, and then use the power of the wind to reproduce the sound."

Although its appearance is a bit ugly, based on its characteristics, people actually give it a very romantic meaning.

'I want to hear you, don't forget me.'

Otowa wood can carry memories.

"Is it rare?" Ying Youyou was not very interested in the tree branches all over the mountain. She only cared about how many points she could get in exchange.

"It should be considered quite rare." Yu gave an ambiguous answer.

The value of Otowa wood lies primarily in the sounds it records.

If a branch of Otowa wood happens to record the last words of a celebrity, it will naturally be priceless.

But if it records useless noise, it has no value.

These Otowa trees seem to have recorded a sound similar to wind chime music. Although it sounds nice, I really don't know how many points it is worth.

"I'll go pull them out." Mi Xiaolu rolled up his sleeves and prepared to work.

"Don't rush yet."

The person who called him was Ivy.

They immediately stopped and looked at her, while Evie stared at the ground intently.

"The source of magic power is under the Otowa tree."

The Otowa trees were just a lure to attract them; the real treasure was not them.

"What's below?" Yuru signaled to Mikoto to step back, and they gradually moved away from the range of Otowagi.

Ying also smelled the 'coolness of battle', she drew out her staff and assumed a fighting stance.

"It looks like a sleeping snow monster." Ivy stopped observing. "There are many interconnected ice caves below. We can look for the entrance nearby."

As she spoke, she gently raised her palm, revealing a projection of a map drawn by magic.

The interconnected ice caves and tunnels looked intricate and intricate. In the cavity of the largest ice cave, a strong magical fluctuation flickered.

The fastest way is to dig a hole downwards from the location of Otowa Wood, but doing so is likely to cause the collapse of the ice cave and avalanches, which is too dangerous.

It’s safer to go inside.
