In that distant little black house

With the exhaustion of Zhang Jingmo's spiritual energy, Zhu Yan who was protecting the two also shrank inch by inch.

Seeing this, Zhang Jingmo also knew that Zhu Yan couldn't bear it anymore, so he said in a low voice: "Come back, don't force yourself."

Hearing this, Zhu Yan wailed, and his wings completely lost their luster. In an instant, he changed from a giant bird to the little sparrow standing on Zhang Jingmo's shoulder.

As soon as Zhu Yan shrank, a large expanse of snow fell heavily on Zhang Jingmo's body. Zhang Jingmo immediately coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood from the huge impact, but his face turned pale again.

The shrunken Zhu Yan was put back into the Sumeru ring by Zhang Jingmo. A thin layer of aura shone on his body, and the aura was faintly visible, and it was obvious that he would not be able to sustain it.

Lu Guijiu was protected by Zhang Jingmo in his arms, and he could only watch Zhang Jingmo's face getting more and more ugly. He knew that it was not wise to talk to Zhang Jingmo at this time, so he asked in a trembling voice: "Lu Shu, what should I do? What should I do? Can I help Master?"

Lu Shu was silent for a while, but said: "You can't die, as for your master... I don't know."

"I can't die?" Lu Guijiu's eyes lit up: "Why?"

Lu Shu couldn't bear to break Lu Guijiu's hope at this time, but he would say what he had to say, he said: "You are the son of destiny, and there is no sign of premature death, so even if you encounter this situation, I can also assert that you will not die like this, but your master..."

After hearing Lu Shu's words, Lu Guijiu's eyes were tearing, and he said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean that I can't die because I am the son of destiny? Is this the solution to this deadlock?!"

Seeing that it was difficult for Lu Guijiu to calm down, Lu Shu sighed again, and said, "Guijiu, I know you won't be able to accept it for a while, but this time, your master, I'm afraid you really won't be able to break through."

Just as he was speaking, Zhang Jingmo, whose face was already pale after being hit by the snow, vomited a few more mouthfuls of blood, and his eyes became darker and darker.

Zhang Jingmo's blood fell on Lu Guijiu's shoulder, but it was like a sharp knife pierced straight into his heart. Lu Guijiu trembled violently. He said, "Lu Shu——I don't believe it!"

Lu Shu stopped talking.

Zhang Jingmo felt Lu Guijiu trembling, he sighed lightly, but said: "Guijiu, don't be afraid."

Lu Guijiu's voice was full of tears, he said: "Master, I was wrong, you don't want to die, you don't want to die—"

Hearing Lu Guijiu's voice, Zhang Jingmo's wry smile grew stronger, and he said, "It's my teacher who killed you." If he hadn't insisted on bringing Lu Guijiu here, he wouldn't have experienced such a change.He thought that Lu Guijiu's fortune would not encounter these sudden changes, but he didn't expect that people are not as good as heaven.

Lu Guijiu has always hated himself for being weak. The matter of Zhang Jingmo sacrificing himself for him has always been a shadow in Lu Guijiu's heart. After that, he has been practicing day and night, but now Hundreds of years later, the situation does not seem to have improved at all.

Seeing Lu Guijiu's painful expression, Zhang Jingmo probably guessed what Lu Guijiu was thinking. He sighed: "Guijiu, I have long been indifferent about life and death. Now we still have a chance, so just listen."

Lu Guijiu nodded like a pounding garlic.

Zhang Jingmo said: "In my Xumi Ring, there is a heart that can live to the death of human flesh and bones. I am afraid I won't last long. I will find a way to send you out before then."

Lu Guijiu choked up.

Zhang Jingmo sighed: "I don't know if I can do it... I can only do my best." He is seriously injured in his body now, and although he still has some spiritual power left, it won't last long. "

Lu Guijiu grabbed the rope that tied him and Zhang Jingmo, and wanted to say that he didn't want to leave, but there was no other way at this time. If he died here too, who would revive his master?

Zhang Jingmo said: "In the evening, the wind and snow will decrease a bit, then... I will send you out."

Lu Guijiu nodded heavily, but his mouth almost gnawed his own teeth.

The last chance that Lu Shu mentioned was in exchange for Zhang Jingmo's life, and Lu Guijiu had no right to refuse.

In the evening, the wind and snow were indeed a little lighter, but the two of them were still buried in the snowdrifts.

Zhang Jingmo counted the time, and when the time with the strongest vitality arrived, he said to Lu Guijiu, "Are you ready?"

Lu Guijiu hummed in a low voice, but at this moment he was staring intently at Zhang Jingmo's face, as if he wanted to imprint Zhang Jingmo's appearance firmly in his mind.

It was rare for Zhang Jingmo to be in such a state of embarrassment. There was no trace of blood on his face, his long hair was messy mixed in the snow, and his breath was very weak.

After Zhang Jingmo knew that Lu Guijiu was ready, he took out a bag from the Sumeru Ring, and handed the Sumeru Ring to Lu Guijiu. He said, "There are a lot of good things in it."

Lu Guijiu put the ring that had been with Zhang Jingmo for a long time on his hand tremblingly. He still wanted to say a lot, but he couldn't say a word for a while.

Zhang Jingmo forcibly breathed out, and was about to use the secret method, but another scream suddenly sounded in his ears.

The screeching sound seemed to be very close to Zhang Jingmo. He didn't notice it for a while, but he was directly knocked out by the screeching sound.

Even Zhang Jingmo's cultivation level was stunned by the scream, let alone Lu Guijiu. When he heard the sound, his vision went dark and he lost consciousness.

Seeing all this as a bystander, Lu Shu could only sigh, "It's all fate."

It's so cold... so cold... Before Lu Guijiu woke up, there was only this feeling. He felt as if his whole body was not his own. The only thing that was warm was his throbbing chest. .

Lu Shu has been calling Lu Guijiu's name to tell him not to lose consciousness due to the cold. Lu Guijiu's headache was caused by Lu Shu's voice. After a long time, he said in a low voice: "Stop calling."

Seeing Lu Guijiu's dying appearance, Lu Shu suddenly laughed, and said directly: "Lu Guijiu, you are still sleeping, you don't care about your master?"

As soon as Lu Guijiu heard the word "Master", he opened his eyes with difficulty. Although his eyelids seemed to be heavy, it took a lot of effort to barely open them.

After Lu Guijiu opened his eyes, he found that he couldn't see. He only felt that his chest hurt badly, which probably was due to his previous injury.

Lu Guijiu's first action after opening his eyes was to touch the rope around his waist, but when he found that the rope had broken, he collapsed.

"Master——" Lu Guijiu's body was as cold as a rock, he barely sat up on the ground, and fumbled around.

Lu Shu said in a low voice: "Don't panic, Zhang Jingmo is on your right."

Hearing Lu Shu's words, Lu Guijiu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Although he couldn't see the surrounding things, he could feel that the temperature where he was was much higher than before, even though he didn't have any extra soul at this time. He used all his strength to protect himself, but only felt a little cold.

Lu Guijiu said: "I can't see... Lu Shu, tell me quickly, where is my master?"

Lu Shu felt very helpless towards Lu Guijiu. The first thing Lu Guijiu did after waking up was not to care about why he couldn't see anything, but to look for Zhang Jingmo.

But Lu Shu also knew that Zhang Jingmo was the deepest obsession in Lu Guijiu's heart. No matter how much dissatisfaction he felt in his heart, he could only say: "Go forty or forty steps to the right, and you will be able to touch him—he was caught Most of it was buried in the snow, so I don’t know if it’s still alive.”

Lu Guijiu's expression twisted when he heard the word "alive". His whole body was shaking violently, but he still insisted on standing up slowly from the snow and then walked to the right step by step.

Along the way, Lu Guijiu fell countless times, but fortunately with the guidance of Lu Shu, although it took him some time, he finally arrived at where Zhang Jingmo was.

The moment he touched Zhang Jingmo's body, Lu Guijiu planed away the snow accumulated on Zhang Jingmo's body like crazy, and pulled Zhang Jingmo's cold body into his arms, screaming incessantly: "Master...Master!"

Zhang Jingmo remained motionless, as if dead.

Lu Guijiu trembled his hands to check Zhang Jingmo's breath. After he found that Zhang Jingmo was still breathing, the emotions he had been accumulating all along finally burst out. He said, "Master is still alive—Master is still alive—" he said As he spoke, he shed tears involuntarily.

Lu Shu was very speechless when he saw this. No one knew better than him what kind of torture Lu Guijiu had suffered, but when Lu Guijiu suffered those things, he did not shed a single tear.However, at this moment, he was crying like a girl who had finally found a lover.

Lu Guijiu found Zhang Jingmo, and a big stone in his heart fell to the ground. He said in a low voice, "Lu Shu, why are my eyes blind."

Lu Shu pondered for a moment: "Perhaps you were hurt by that sound wave... After you were stunned by that sound wave, you rolled into an ice crevice along the heavy snow. Zhang Jingmo woke up once when he fell into the ice crevasse, otherwise you two might be together." Already fell to his death."

Lu Guijiu asked, "What about after that?"

Lu Shu said: "After that, Zhang Jingmo passed out again, and then you woke up."

Lu Guijiu said: "Let's light up a fire to keep Master warm." Although he couldn't see anything, he still had Lu Shu, so the most important thing at this moment was to keep Zhang Jingmo's body warm so that he wouldn't die from the cold .

With great difficulty, Lu Guijiu took out a bottle of elixir from the Sumeru Ring, put it in his mouth, and meditated for a while before recovering some spiritual power.During this period, he did not let go of Zhang Jingmo, but let Zhang Jingmo lie on his lap.

After recovering a little spiritual power, Lu Guijiu lit another spiritual fire, and his eyes were completely unable to see before, and barely had a sense of light.

Lu Shu instructed Lu Guijiu's movements, and after Lu Guijiu raised a fire, he said: "You feed your master some spirit bars, his meridians are damaged now, and eating the spirit supplement pills is not good for his body. "

Lu Guijiu said hello.

The spiritual wine that Zhang Jingmo brought in the Sumeru Ring was top quality, not only could replenish spiritual power, but also had the effect of warding off the cold.

Lu Guijiu searched for a long time in Zhang Jingmo's Sumeru Ring before he found the bottle of spirit wine, but after he took out the spirit wine, he ran into another difficulty. He couldn't see anything now, so how could he feed it to Zhang Jingmo? .

Seeing Lu Guijiu's hesitation, Lu Shu didn't ask to remind him—he didn't believe that Lu Guijiu couldn't figure it out.

Sure enough, after a while, Lu Guijiu thought of a way. He first poured a sip of spirit wine into his mouth, and then groped to find Zhang Jingmo's lips.

Zhang Jingmo's lips were very cold. At first touch, they looked like a piece of soft ice. Lu Guijiu felt extremely distressed. He lowered his head slowly, enclose Zhang Jingmo's lips, and then took a mouthful. He passed the spirit wine over.

In other places, Lu Guijiu could still feel a little bit of whimsy when doing this action, but at this moment, there is only distress in his heart.

He held Zhang Jingmo as if holding his own life.

The warm clothes that Zhang Jingmo put on the two of them before saved their lives at this time. Although the temperature here is not as low as above, it is still very cold after all. At this time, both Lu Guijiu and Zhang Jingmo are exhausted. Reiki, you can only light a fire to keep out the cold like a mortal.

Lu Guijiu fed Zhang Jingmo a bottle of spiritual wine, but Zhang Jingmo's body did not recover from it, and it was still frighteningly cold.

Lu Guijiu was anxious, but he knew that he should not rush at this time, he said, "Lu Shu, what is it like around here?"

Lu Shu looked around and said, "Ice is everywhere, nothing special, um, it's just an ice ditch."

Lu Guijiu said with a wry smile: "Is my luck good or bad?" If it was good, why did I encounter such an avalanche? If it was not good, I survived the avalanche again and fell into it in the crevice.

Lu Shu said lightly: "Fortune is where misfortune depends, and misfortune is where blessings depend. Who can say clearly about this matter." He didn't tell Lu Guijiu that he has a very accurate eye for people. The masters chosen over the years have never chosen a short-lived ghost.

If Lu Guijiu said that he was terrified when he woke up, then when he found out that Zhang Jingmo was still alive, the terrific fear would be reduced by eight points, and the remaining two points were still worried about Zhang Jingmo's body, he would I never thought that I would not be able to survive.

In the next few days, Lu Guijiu fed Zhang Jingmo spirit wine every day, and Zhang Jingmo's physical condition seemed to have recovered a little, not as cold as when Lu Guijiu found him.

And Lu Guijiu's eyes were finally able to see again after one month. After he meditated and opened his eyes, he found that his eyes could see the things around him. The first thing he did was to look at himself Zhang Jingmo was still sleeping in his arms.

Compared with before, the complexion on Zhang Jingmo's face was naturally much worse. With his eyes closed, he lay quietly in Zhang Jingmo's arms, no trace of blood could be seen on his lips or cheeks.

If Lu Guijiu hadn't hugged Zhang Jingmo all day, he might have thought that the person in front of him was a corpse.

Lu Guijiu thought that after seeing Zhang Jingmo's appearance, he would feel less uneasy, but after seeing Zhang Jingmo's lifeless appearance, he became even more uneasy.

Hearing Lu Shu's description before, Lu Guijiu had only a vague idea of ​​where he was, but now he could clearly see that he and Zhang Jingmo were in a deep ice crevice. The avalanche seemed to have stopped. Go, the sky becomes a thin line.

And the ice crevasse didn't know how deep it was. Lu Guijiu spent some spiritual energy to release a paper crane and wanted to leave the ice crevice to see what was going on outside, but the paper crane never replied to him again. .

From then on, Lu Guijiu couldn't tell what was going on in Xuegou.

In order to maintain the temperature of Zhang Jingmo's body, Lu Guijiu first changed Zhang Jingmo into dry and thick clothes, then put his coat on Zhang Jingmo's body, and then lit several piles of spiritual fires to surround the two of them.

In Zhang Jingmo's Sumeru Precepts, almost all the food that could warm and nourish the meridians and increase spiritual power entered Zhang Jingmo's mouth.

Lu Shu knew that it was impossible for Lu Guijiu to give up Zhang Jingmo at this time, but he couldn't help but looked at Lu Guijiu's actions and said: "Lu Guijiu, have you ever thought about how long you can last like this?" ?”

There is a lack of aura here. Once the food and medicine are exhausted, Lu Guijiu and Zhang Jingmo will be trapped here to death.

Lu Guijiu's answer was within Lu Shu's expectation, he said coldly: "Until Master wakes up."

In order to save his spiritual power, he began to meditate all day long, trying to absorb the meager spiritual energy in the ice crevice.

Dozens of days passed in a blink of an eye, and Lu Guijiu had to start thinking about other methods...

As soon as Lu Shu heard that Lu Guijiu was about to find a way out, his eyes lit up, and he said, "You finally figured it out!"

Lu Guijiu nodded and said, "Indeed, waiting to die here is not an option..."

Before Lu Shu could show his smile, he heard Lu Guijiu added: "I have to take Master to see if I can get out here."

Lu Shu said: "Bring Master?!"

"Isn't this nonsense?" Lu Guijiu said coldly, "Don't you think I will put Master here alone?"

Lu Shu: "..." He should know.

Lu Guijiu is also a person with strong mobility, once he makes a decision, he will implement it quickly.

The next day, he wrapped Zhang Jingmo tightly and put it on his back. After putting it on, he frowned and said, "Master, why is he getting thinner again?"

Lu Shu snorted dissatisfied in his heart, thinking that it is because I have no body, if I had a body, I am afraid that you will be worried about me by now, only a skeleton.

But no matter how dissatisfied Lu Shu was, Lu Guijiu would never abandon Zhang Jingmo. After he carried Zhang Jingmo on his back, he walked along the snow ditch, trying to find an opportunity to get out.

The days passed day by day, and Lu Guijiu had been walking in this snow ditch for more than a year with Zhang Jingmo on his back.

He also looked forward to Zhang Jingmo's waking up very much at the beginning, but with the passage of time, this expectation was slowly extinguished.

With Lu Guijiu's ability, it was impossible to detect what kind of injury Zhang Jingmo had suffered, and naturally he had no way of knowing the reason why Zhang Jingmo was unconscious.

So he can only maintain Zhang Jingmo's life with difficulty, and feed Zhang Jingmo some food every day to replenish the spiritual energy in Zhang Jingmo's body, so that he will not die of spiritual energy exhaustion.

Fortunately in the misfortune, Zhang Jingmo stored a lot of food with aura in his Xumi ring, and it could last for a while.

But the food is limited, and the time in the ice crevasse is endless. Lu Guijiu walked in the ice crevasse with Zhang Jingmo on his back for a full 360 five days, but he didn't see where the end of the ice crevasse was.

This kind of goalless itinerary consumes one's willpower, but to Lu Shu's surprise, Lu Guijiu's mental state has always been good, and it can even be said to be very good.

He walks during the day and rests for a period of time at night. During this time, he will feed Zhang Jingmo with spirits, and then talk to Zhang Jingmo for a while.

On this day, when the sun was setting again, Lu Guijiu sat down on the spot and let Zhang Jingmo lean on him.

Zhang Jingmo remained silent with his eyes closed, except for his breathing, there was no sign that he was still alive.

Lu Guijiu slowly wiped Zhang Jingmo's face. He knew that his master likes to be clean, so he would clean his body for his master every few days.

While wiping, Lu Guijiu said slowly: "Master, you have been asleep for four days, and I have walked a long way today..." He gently brushed Zhang Jingmo's hair away, and then combed the black hair with a comb. Comb the silk a little bit smooth.

Lu Guijiu touched Zhang Jingmo's hair, his eyes were full of tenderness, and he said: "I think it's not bad now, you said before that you would send me out, and let me save you later...you don't know, I'm a little scared." I'm afraid that if I come back too late, I won't see you again.

Lu Guijiu said again: "Zhu Yan was also seriously injured. If you go out from here, you must give him a good meal. I want to walk along this crevasse... I can always find a place to go out." It was Lu Guijiu's conjecture, and he was not completely sure that his conjecture was correct.

But things have come to this point, and it's better to have a goal than to sit around and wait to die.

"Master, when will you wake up?" Lu Guijiu said, "I know you are tired, but I really miss the way you talk to me." After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and put his forehead on the bed. on Zhang Jingmo's forehead.

"Master, wake up quickly, I really... miss you so much." Lu Guijiu stared at Zhang Jingmo's face, slowly leaned forward, kissed Zhang Jingmo's eyes, and then kissed the corner of Zhang Jingmo's mouth .

However, at this moment, Lu Shu's voice suddenly became tense, and he said, "Lu Guijiu, did you hear anything?"

Lu Guijiu froze for a moment, then frowned: "Is this... howling of a wolf?"

Lu Shu said helplessly: "Lu Guijiu, Lu Guijiu, I think you can meet any kind of bad things."

While the two were talking, they saw a few huge white wolves appearing on the smooth ice surface. These white wolves seemed to ignore the gravity of the earth and stood obliquely on the smooth cliffs on both sides. above.
