ecstasy

Ning Shiting vaguely remembered that in the study of Prince Qing's Mansion, there was a booklet called "Book of Wan Xiang", which recorded all the spiritual beasts, flowers, plants, and minerals in the history of the Nine Great Immortal Continents.Similar to the Book of Mountains and Seas in the world.

Occasionally, you can find the sealing methods of some ancient giant beasts that have disappeared, but they are too unpopular, and no one would think of looking up this book.

Ning Shiting didn't read the book either, but just flipped through it a few times.This book seemed too lengthy, and the content was not what Ning Shiting needed to understand right now, so he put it aside.

The record of the Snow Demon in Dongzhou may be found above.

However, the problem Ning Shiting encountered was that he was flipping around in the study today, and when he remembered this book, he couldn't find it.

This book is also an infinite book, a very light and small one to hold.Ning Shiting was not a forgetful person. After thinking about it for a long time, he realized that it might be possible that one day when he sent Gu Tingshuang a miscellaneous biography, he accidentally included it in it.

In other words, this "Book of Ten Thousand Phases" should be in the Shizi Mansion.

The severity of the snowstorm is no longer known.If it is delayed by one more day, the extra casualties may be incalculable.

Ning Shiting thought about it until midnight, seeing that everyone had fallen asleep, he finally decided to go out for a walk by himself.

He prepared a spare mask soaked in the soul-returning incense for himself, wrapped himself tightly, and took another magic weapon.

The magic weapon is called the fire lotus, and its shape is a bit like an umbrella. When the umbrella is opened, the real fire of Samadhi can be sprayed out from the surface of the umbrella.This magic weapon is powerful, but it can't be controlled precisely, and it can't be used as a weapon. It used to be used by the cooks of Prince Qing's mansion to burn off the kitchen waste.

He went out the door quietly alone.

As soon as he stepped out the door, he was almost forced back by the violent snowstorm.The biting cold wind engulfed the hard wind and snow, as if it wanted to penetrate the limbs and bones of the human body.

Ning Shiting coughed a few times, clenched the fire lotus umbrella in his hand, stabilized his figure and walked out.

There is nothing but white in front of my eyes, and the heavy snow covers up all possibilities of seeing things.

Ning Shiting was a little confused about the direction, but with the shark's sensitivity to sound, he could hear the difference in the sound of the wind because of the obstruction of the building. different sounds, so it is still possible to roughly judge the direction and the shape of things on the way.

It was only when he suddenly tripped over the stone railing in front of him that Ning Shiting felt a little alarmed - he found the right direction, but took the wrong route.The place where he is standing now is exactly the thousand lotus pond where koi are usually overflowing in Prince Qing's Mansion.He is a mermaid, and he is not afraid of water, but under the water, there is a ghost-toothed dragon with beautiful scales and a fierce temperament that has been domesticated under Gu Feiyin's instruction.If it wasn't for the fact that the entire lake had been frozen into a solid layer of ice, even if he fell into the water, it would have been dangerous.

Ning Shiting held the fire lotus umbrella tightly so that it would not be blown away by the wind. The cold sweat in his hands condensed into ice cubes, connecting the skin on his hands with the gloves made of Luoshui mist, which was almost numb from the cold I can't feel the presence of my own hand.This layer of ice was quickly melted by the hot wind from the fire lotus umbrella, and the melted water dripped down the cufflinks, but once it rolled down the elbow a little farther, it was immediately frozen into ice again.

The hands are like this, and so is the whole body, even the bone marrow seems to be frozen.

He had experienced this kind of cold once in his previous life, and now he experienced it again, and it seemed that he was not as desperate and frightening as he remembered.

It is human nature to be afraid of death. From the moment he was born, he experienced all kinds of pain and painstakingly. Later, he gradually got used to it and felt that his life was worthless.Although it is a precious medicine shark, a person is just a person after all. Without him, the sun will rise from east to west and set from west to west as usual.

In his previous life, his master said that he would suffer the pain of burning his heart, but for so many years, he didn't even think about it before he died.But now that he has resurrected his life, he doesn't even have a thought.

Qing Wang can kill, of course it is good.But what about after killing?

If he still had a life left until that time, only living with the idea of ​​"not being able to die with that person", then why is he living?

Recklessness, cruelty, and passionate obsessions are not good, but there is no joy in living a life without worries.

The cold and cruel environment erodes people's minds.Since Ning Shiting's rebirth, Mengmao's illness has never been better, and the more unconscious he is, the more chaotic his thoughts become.

He is not afraid of death, only afraid of cold, afraid of dreams.

Just before Ning Shiting realized that the nightmare was coming, he bit his lips hard.

Because he was numb from the cold, he didn't even feel pain when he bit down on it.The warm blood rolled over his lips, and quickly condensed into dark ice, followed by the rising pain.

Relying on this slight pain, Ning Shiting found a place where the wind and snow were blocked before he lost consciousness.

In just an instant, the wind and snow were directly weakened many times, as if there was an invisible huge wall blocking him.

Ning Shiting looked up, trying hard to make out something in the whiteness.

He thought he had walked into some sheltered palace and pavilion, but when the wind and snow subsided, it was not.

In the darkness and heavy snow, he approached with a lamp to illuminate it, and suddenly found——

That is not a wall, but countless ancient white wolves!

These wolves stood silently in front of him, their statures soared into giants, one by one, using their huge bodies to form an endless wall of flesh, blocking the strong wind and heavy snow outside.

Suddenly seeing such a shocking - or panicking scene, Ning Shiting suddenly stopped in his tracks.

The wind and snow were calm, and he could even hear the heavy breathing of these wolves mixed with the sound of the falling wind, which was the heavy panting of beasts.

He thought about it, and tentatively took a step in their direction.

Ning Shiting didn't know what the wolves were doing.In ancient times, the White Wolf God behaved unrestrainedly, which is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The only thought in his mind now is: If this scene is seen by other people in the house, it may cause great chaos.

It's also good to recall that after Tingshuang's accident, the restriction on Lingshan leading to Prince Qing's Mansion has never been opened, otherwise the pack of wolves would have nowhere to hide in such a snowy night, even on Lingshan.Now at least he can take refuge in Prince Qing's Mansion for the time being.Everything in the Lingshan Mountain has animism. Now the Snow Demon has been raging to an unknown extent. The creatures on the mountain are still too busy to take care of themselves. Once the white wolf's nest is destroyed, they will never easily find a new nest. The only possibility is to come and join them The head wolf Gu Tingshuang.

Now the actions of the pack of wolves are unpredictable, Ning Shiting was afraid that they would run into the servants who didn't know the situation, and there would be unnecessary misunderstandings, so he wanted to go up to them and ask them about the movements of the golden back wolf .However, something unexpected happened to him.

He took a step in the direction of the wolves, and the wolves took a step back.Looking over in the wind and snow, it seemed that the wall made of flesh and blood was following his footsteps.

Ning Shiting was stunned for a moment, thinking that the wolves refused to approach him, so he took another step back, nodded and thanked softly: "Thank you, although I don't know what you mean by doing this, but Ting wrote about the protection of everyone Grace."

After speaking, he continued to walk forward with the lamp on.

Shizi Mansion is not far away.

As soon as Ning Shiting left, the pack of wolves immediately followed his direction and continued to move forward.When Ning Shiting did this, he was sure: these wolves were indeed surrounded like this to protect him and protect him from the wind and snow.

Although Ning Shiting didn't know why they did this, he felt a little flattered.

He quickened his pace in the snowstorm, and when he came to the gate of Shizi Mansion, he saw the golden back wolf at the end of the wall surrounded by wolves.It squatted at the door where Gu Tingshuang usually drank tea. After looking over with golden wolf eyes, he lowered his head and dropped something at his feet.

It was the "Book of Ten Thousand Phases" that Ning Shiting wanted to pick up.

This group of creatures with spiritual energy in heaven and earth are really terribly clever. After Ning Shiting walked over to pick it up, he saw the golden back wolf running past him, stopped at the door and looked back at him, beckoning him to go back.

Ning Shiting glanced distractedly at the Shizi Mansion - the roof that they hadn't had time to repair had already been crushed in half, and several giant trees behind were broken down in the middle, creating a dilapidated scene.Fortunately, he made a decision early, and all important things and people were withdrawn, but now this piece of ruins, I don't know if it can provide a shelter for the wolves.

Ning Shiting quickly remembered what he saw in the civil affairs hall that day, and then related what happened today, knowing that the ancient white wolf seemed to have the ability to change its body size at will.

The pack of wolves escorted him back, and he couldn't help making a sound, and asked softly, "Would you like to go to... the library to rest for a while, I mean... if you don't mind."

The golden ridgeback looked back at him, then stopped cautiously, like last time, as if he was thinking about something.

However, this time, they obviously didn't think for as long as last time.

Ning Shiting returned to the courtyard of the study building safely, and saw the golden back wolf parked outside the courtyard, looking inside with a hesitant look, so he smiled and waved: "Come in, but keep your voice down." , might scare someone."

The Golden Ridgeback stepped into the yard, and Ning Shiting smiled and made a gesture: "It can be smaller, our place is full of people, there is probably only one warm room for you to squeeze in, don't mind."

The golden ridgeback then shrunk down.

The wind and snow suddenly became stronger, and the golden back wolf shrank several times out of thin air, becoming almost the same as the little wolf, and followed him inside.

The pack of wolves at the back, like the golden back wolves, all turned into cubs, and followed Ning Shiting into it.

The room that is still vacant is Ning Shiting's study, and Gu Tingshuang just fell asleep not long ago.But it's warm anyway.

Ning Shiting didn't even have time to count how many wolves there were. Countless wolf cubs that looked like they came in lined up, their paws clattering.He only saw signs that someone had opened the door, and Gu Tingshuang's wheelchair had also moved.

Gu Tingshuang went out?

His heart skipped a beat, and he became a little nervous, but when he went inside to look, he found that Gu Tingshuang was still lying there, with his back turned to him, and fell asleep.

The little wolf seemed to sense something in his sleep, his ears moved, and he opened his eyes to look at him.

Seeing that Gu Tingshuang didn't run out, Ning Shiting breathed a sigh of relief, and went to help him tuck the corner of the quilt.

Gu Tingshuang will be 15 years old in a few days. She is a vigorous young man, but she is only covered with a thin quilt.

Ning Shiting couldn't understand it. He thought it would freeze people badly. When he told Gu Tingshuang directly like this, Gu Tingshuang ignored him at all, and only said that he wanted to do asceticism.

As soon as he passed by, when he wanted to take out another thick quilt from the bed to cover him, Gu Tingshuang stretched out his hand abruptly, and quickly clasped it across a thin quilt. his wrist.

"what are you doing?"

Ning Shiting was startled, and said, "I want to add a quilt to His Highness."

Gu Tingshuang couldn't hear much drowsiness in her voice, but she wasn't aggressive either. She just said lightly, "No, go to sleep by yourself. Are you still asleep?"

It was rare for him to speak to him so gently.

Ning Shiting always felt that since Gu Tingshuang went astray last time, his attitude towards him had changed, as if he was a little closer than before.

People's hearts can be warmed up, not to mention that Gu Tingshuang's nature is like his own wolf pack, suspicious, fierce, but sincere.

Seeing that he must not have fallen asleep, Ning Shiting was very fortunate. Ning Shiting looked back at the forty or fifty "wolf cubs" scurrying outside, and told him in a deliberate tone: "I just went out and picked up a book. Book."

"Ah."

"I met... your white wolves on the road, they opened the way for me to protect me from the wind, so that I would not be difficult to walk, thank you."

"understood."

Gu Tingshuang let go of her hands, and lay on the bedside with her back to him, her tone still calm.

How could he not know?

If he hadn't changed his mind before going out and didn't go to find the merman himself, but used his spiritual knowledge to mobilize the wolves to protect him, whether Ning Shiting could come back safely would be a problem.

"And..." Ning Shiting said.

and also?

"The Shizi Mansion has been in disrepair for a long time, and it is probably useless for avoiding the wind and snow, so I... invite your white wolves to come in and rest, is that okay?" Ning Shiting asked.

He was a little undecided, wondering what Gu Tingshuang himself thought about the contact between wolves and crowds.Or maybe, this boy is so cruel to himself, he also thinks that letting the pack of wolves stay in the snow is a kind of experience?

Sure enough, I saw Gu Tingshuang sitting up from the head of the bed, and followed his gaze to look out.

A bunch of fluffy little wolf cubs emerged from the door, and they all looked over together.

Ning Shiting's eyes sparkled.

Gu Tingshuang: "..."
