From eunuch to emperor

The snowfield is too big. Finding a moving holy beast in the vast snowfield is more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.

At least, a needle dropped in the sea won't run away.

Long Chen jumped off the altar, stood in the deep dungeon, and looked around.

With the help of the faint night light, Long Chen slowly observed the wall, there was nothing on it except scratches.

There was a layer of blood on the ground, frozen.

"what is this?"

Long Chen picked up a glass-like shattered particle, very similar to crystal, but not crystal.

Cheng Jin jumped down, took the shattered particles from Long Chen's hand, observed carefully, then seriously shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't know."

Long Chen was speechless: "I don't know if you've been thinking about it for a long time."

Cheng Jin said with a smile: "King Wu asked, I dare not speak nonsense, and after careful consideration, I am sure that I have not seen it."

There was nothing wrong with saying that, Cheng Jin didn't dare to open his mouth to talk nonsense.

Leaped onto the altar, took down the high night pearl, walked out of the cave, the cold wind howled outside, and snowflakes fell from the sky.

Long Chen found a shelter from the wind, and took out the broken particles from his sleeve to watch carefully.

The altar is empty, there is nothing, except for this broken particle.

"Is there such a stone in this mountain?"

Long Chen handed the broken particles to Cheng Jin again.

The mineral structure of a mountain is relatively stable. There are several types of stones, and generally speaking, they will not change.

Unless there are drastic geological changes.

Cheng Jin checked the broken particles very carefully, and finally said: "No, definitely not. I have been here for decades and am very familiar with the situation here."

"This kind of spar absolutely does not exist on this mountain, it is something from other places."

Long Chen put the crushed particles in his hands, feeling very cold.

It's freezing cold around, and the coldness emitted by the broken particles is even stronger, which feels very magical.

"I remembered something."

Cheng Jin said suddenly.

Long Chen put away the broken particles and waited for Cheng Jin to continue.

"It seems that there is something similar to this on the mountain, and that thing is used by ghosts to store pills and the like."

Cheng Jin recalled that there was something similar to this broken particle on the snow mountain.

"still there?"

Long Chen immediately asked.

This is a clue, or rather the only clue.

Cheng Jin shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, I'll have to have a look to find out, after all, this place has been abandoned."

Long Chen and the empress had come here and had a battle with Guitai, Guitai and Li Chengdao evacuated, the snow mountain has been abandoned since then, Cheng Jin is not sure if the contents are still there.

"Go, go up and have a look."

Long Chen put away the broken particles, and walked to the cave on the top with Cheng Jin.

The whistling wind and snow came from the north, and the two of them walked on the snow-covered mountain path, with their knees submerged in the snow, walking up with one deep foot and one shallow foot.

In the past, the roads in the snow mountain were regularly cleared by guards.

After being abandoned, this is no man's land, no one cares about these mountain roads.

Cheng Jin was walking on the familiar road, and recalled the days when he guarded the mountain, feeling a burst of emotion in his heart.

Following Long Chen, his life is much easier.

At Yanmen Pass, Long Chen hardly cared about Cheng Jin, and let him do whatever he wanted, as long as he didn't betray him.

Unlike the ghost fetus, it is a complete slave, life and death are held in the hands of the ghost fetus, and there is no freedom at all.

Walking to the cave and entering it, Long Chen shook the snowflakes off his body, Cheng Jin looked around, and sighed: "Revisiting the old place, I have a special feeling in my heart."

Long Chen smiled and said: "That's right, it's a good word."

Cheng Jin smiled awkwardly, and said, "My lord is laughing at the fact that the class is playing with an axe."

Cheng Jin walked straight in, passed through several passages, and entered the room that was previously exclusive to ghost fetuses.

Most of the contents are still there, and many places are frozen.

Cheng Jin walked to a wall and pressed a stone with his hands. The stone wall slowly opened, and there was a transparent bottle inside.

"My lord, this is it."

Cheng Jin took out the bottle and handed it to Long Chen.

After taking the bottle, a chill hit my hand, and my palm felt like it was going to be frozen.

"It's so cold."

Long Chen took a closer look at the bottle, the material was indeed similar to broken particles.

Transparent material, cold feeling.

"What is this bottle for? Is it just for pills?"

Long Chen squinted his eyes and looked at the bottom of the bottle, there were still a few pills inside.

"I remember it was to store the elixir, other than that, I haven't seen anything else done with the bottle."

Cheng Jin answered truthfully that when he was in the snow mountain, Guitai only used bottles to hold pills, and they were expensive pills.

Apart from buying pills from the Central Plains, ghost fetuses occasionally make them themselves.

The elixir he made himself is stored here.

Long Chen poured out the bottle, and a few dark red pills fell down.

Picking up one, Long Chen sniffed it, and said: "The blood pill is made from human blood, and there are some animal blood in it, which is a great tonic."

Long Chen put away the pill and put it back into the bottle.

These elixirs may be useful at critical moments.

"What do the broken particles in the altar have to do with this bottle?"

Long Chen said to himself, Cheng Jin didn't speak, he didn't know what it was, he just suddenly remembered that this bottle was a bit like broken particles, that's all.

How to find clues from broken particles and bottles is up to Long Chen himself, Cheng Jin's brain is not enough.

"Where did this bottle come from?"

Long Chen asked Cheng Jin, and Cheng Jin said: "I really know this. The ghost said that it was excavated from a Bingyu Mountain in the northwest."

This question of Long Chen was just mentioned by ghosts, so Cheng Jin knew about it.

"Bingyu Mountain? Where is it? Specially produced this kind of stone?"

Long Chen shook the bottle in his hand, Cheng Jin said: "Yes, the ghost said that there are many such ice jades there, and he also said that this kind of ice jade is very cold, and people who practice the yin and cold kung fu can take it."

Long Chen frowned slightly, and said: "Those who practice the Yin and Cold Technique can take it, so... the holy beast controls the snowstorm, will it also eat this thing?"

This guess was a bit off, and Cheng Jin couldn't keep up for a while.

After thinking for a while, Cheng Jin suddenly realized: "That's right, the stones in Bingyu Mountain are very cold and cloudy, and the holy beast is a cold thing, and it probably eats this."

"The broken particles in the altar are probably ice jade that the holy beast once ate, just like this bottle."

Long Chen asked: "Do you know where Bingyu Mountain is?"

Cheng Jin shook his head again and said, "I mentioned it once, but I haven't been there. I don't know."

Cheng Jin felt very embarrassed, he didn't know Long Chen's question, so it seemed useless to follow him.

Long Chen smiled, and said: "At least I know one direction, let's go, go to Bingyu Mountain and see if there are any clues."

This time he came out just to try his luck, Long Chen didn't expect to find it all at once.

Cheng Jin looked around, sighed again in his heart, and immediately followed Long Chen down the mountain.

The sky was getting darker and the snow was getting bigger.

The two did not go down the mountain along the same path, but jumped off the cliff.

Both of them have very high cultivation bases, and there is still snow at the foot of the mountain, so the speed of jumping down the cliff is faster.

Coming down from the snow mountain, Long Chen took Cheng Jin to the northwest, looking for the Bingyu Mountain that the ghost was talking about.
