Celestial Master Cultivation Diary

204 Chapter 203. Snow

The hands in the pockets were tightly squeezed together.

Li Zhe listened for a few more seconds with a sinking heart, but he didn't hear any strange movement again. He took the lead and walked in front, digging deeper into the depths bit by bit.

Lin Youyou timidly followed behind, and asked a very profound question: "Brother Li, what are we going to do after we go in?"

With a pause in his footsteps, Li Zhe could even feel that he was stepping on a layer of rustling frost.

Yes, what are you doing in there?Found that monster?Then what?
The other party seemed to be a very troublesome big monster, could it be that he killed it after entering?
"This terrifying low temperature, with such a large range, is like a field. It should be some kind of ability it was born with, right?" After thinking for a while, Li Zhe continued to take the lead to explore. The further he went, the higher the temperature became. Low, even the toes are a little painful and frozen: "See if we can communicate, let it put away its own abilities, or let it leave Jinghai."

"Even if it leaves Jinghai, it will go to other places, it's still the same..."

"That's something other celestial masters have to consider, it's none of our business."

Lin Youyou was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered what Jinghua said earlier, the monster didn't seem to be staying in Jinghai all the time: "Isn't it just being chased by everyone like this?..."

Li Zhe kept walking, following the increasingly bone-piercing low temperature, he kept approaching the front: "There is no way to do that. Didn't you listen to what they said? If you let this guy stay in the same place, it will completely destroy this place." Those who become eternally frozen will not be able to survive, whether they are humans or demons."

The further you go, the less you can see the traces of summer. Hoarfrost climbs up the tree trunks and spreads flowers and plants. If there is a wind blowing on the face, it will be like an invisible knife, which can shave people painfully.

Lin Youyou even got out two thick scarves, which were fluffy and covered half of her face.

"Brother Li, do you want gloves?"

Li Zhe stood by a tree, shook his head without looking back, and focused all his attention on the front.

There was a huge figure motionless, white enough to glow.

In terms of size alone, even Sha Deng is shorter than it.

But Silly Lantern looks like a monster other than being naive, unlike this snow demon——Li Zhe doesn't know who gave it the name, or it is called Snow Demon itself. Compared with its appearance, it is really a bit fragmented.

Who would call a plump, plump snowman a snow devil?
Lin Youyou, who was originally hiding behind, also took two steps forward. Although she was still hiding behind Li Zhe, the tense anxiety along the way has eased a lot. She is no longer so guarded, but is looking at it curiously. Looking at the big monster who sees the monster and fears the monster.

"It looks so cute."

"Don't be fooled by the appearance." Li Zhe shrank his hands, and now he felt that his nose was about to be frozen off.

The big snowman's eyes were a bit dull, it could even be described as hollow, and there was no aura in it, which greatly reduced its chubby temperament, adding a touch of creepiness and weirdness.

It stood there, as if it hadn't moved for a while, and the ground under it had already frozen into ice, reflecting its huge figure faintly, with little frost blooming.

The two sides faced each other silently, the temperature was still dropping, and even the down jacket was useless, so they could barely support it with the help of surgery.

"Snow..." Li Zhe thought for a while, and didn't know what to call it for a while.

The name Xuemo always felt that it was a name circulated among the group of little monsters. He didn't believe that besides the patients in the second stage of middle school, anyone else would call themselves a devil.

Before you know the opponent's strength and character, you should try your best to avoid any actions that will irritate it.

Hesitating, the footless snowman leaned over like a tumbler, seemingly nodding in response.

"Uh... your name is Xue?"

The monster nodded again, shaking a little more than before, Lin Youyou watched for fear that it would fall to the ground.

"You..." Li Zhe hesitated for a while, not knowing where to start, "Where did you come from?"

The monster named Xue tilted its head, and seemed a little dazed.

"are you cold?"

The empty pupils froze again. The monster seemed to have to ponder for a long time about the short three-word question, and then shook his body a little excitedly.

The next moment, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped to another notch, and the cold wind howled, piercingly cold, Li Zhe pulled Lin Youyou behind him to block him, hurt by the knife-like wind and snow, raised his hand and shouted Say: "Stop! Stop, stop!"

The wind weakened again, and even the temperature rose back a bit. The snow monster looked at him blankly,
Seeing that it could communicate, Li Zhe took courage and took two steps forward: "What are you doing in Yong'an Domain?"

As he approached, the monster also took two steps back, and then returned to its hollow appearance.

Seeing that the snowman didn't move, Li Zhe asked again: "Do you have any companions?"

Monsters are no better than humans. Many monsters don't like to live in groups, but at the same time they don't like to walk alone.

Except for a few special ethnic groups, such as the Bogun clan, and a few lonely and powerful lone big monsters, most monsters prefer to travel in groups of threes and twos. , just like the Krathong and Mirror Flower in the past, of course, now there is a Gudu fooling around with them.

If this big snow monster also has an ethnic group or similar companions, it may be able to change Jinghai from a livable place into a no-man's land, where the permafrost will not melt all year round.

The monster lowered its head and became more silent. The temperature around it fluctuated with its mood.

Lin Youyou poked her head out from behind Li Zhe, and asked tentatively, "You can talk, right?"

The big snowman nodded.

"Then why don't you speak? We don't mean any harm! If you are in trouble, we can help you... maybe."

The monster stared at her, his eyes were empty, he couldn't see what it was thinking, and he couldn't feel the look in his eyes. After staring at her for a long time, his heart would feel a little chilly.

Very scared.

After being quiet for a while, the snowman opened his mouth, but before he could even make a sound, a cold wind was blowing around him.

At that moment, it was so cold that it lost its mind. Fortunately, it was only for such a short moment. After it closed its mouth, everything returned to normal.

However, even under normal conditions, the temperature in the air is still very low. Li Zhe looked around, a little worried: "Should we lure him away first? It feels like the place is about to freeze."

Lin Youyou didn't make a sound, she squinted her eyes and stared forward, muttering: "Brother Li, look..."

According to the reputation, the snow under the body of the monster named Xue was getting thicker. Although it had no legs, it had two short hands, and was paddling on the snow layer with a long branch.

"What is it doing?"

"I can't see clearly." His eyes were almost narrowed, but because the distance was too far, Li Zhe couldn't see what it was writing clearly.

Still struggling to identify, footsteps rustled behind him, and Lin Youyou stepped forward step by step, scaring him to follow quickly.

"Be careful, if the situation is not right for a while, you remember to run faster."

Regarding his instructions, Lin Youyou just nodded silently, then stopped at a moderate distance, watching the monster scratching.

It is not writing, it seems to be painting, a sky with a big sun, it seems that there are watermelons, there are a group of monsters surrounded by a pile, and the expressions are all crying faces.

It's not a crying face, anyway, the corners of the mouth are curled down, not very happy.

Then a new monster came, with the only smiling face, but it seemed out of place with the gang of monsters, and then it only had two eyes, neither smiling nor crying.

Then, somehow, all the monsters turned into smiling faces, and then soon turned into the corners of the mouth that were turned down before. Not only that, but the number of monsters was much smaller.

Lin Youyou looked at it in a daze, the temperature was too low, and she couldn't turn her mind from the cold, so she could only wait silently for it to finish drawing.

Li Zhe didn't look at the painting it made on the spot, but shifted his gaze to an ice cube in the arms of the big snowman, like a frozen slate, with an almost identical painting engraved on it.

To be precise, it was imitating the painting on the slate, trying to replicate it on the ground for them to see.

Xue Yao seemed to value this stone slab very much. When Li Zhe proposed to borrow it to take a look, he tightened his arms very cautiously, as if wanting to cut off all his coveting.

The painting is very simple, and the restoration is very fast. Seeing that it was finished, Lin Youyou wanted to take a closer look, but firstly, he had some scruples, and secondly, the temperature near the big snowman was too biting, making it difficult to get close.

Fortunately, it is still friendly, and I don't know if it is aware of the difficulties of the two of them, or it simply wants to protect the ice slate in its arms, and retreats towards the distance with a jump.

Li Zhe and Li Zhe took the opportunity to go forward. As it left, the ice and snow here were slowly melting. The two of them seemed to be doing a time-limited reading comprehension, breathing heavily, racking their brains to analyze it.

"Why are these monsters so sad? Who is this laughing one?"

Li Zhe was complacent and half-knowledgeable, unable to give her an answer, Lin Youyou looked at the painting on the ground and was still talking to himself: "Well...the snowman in the second half should be itself, right?"

Li Zhe paused for a moment, and realized something: "Didn't those monsters say that this snowman didn't look like this before?"

Lin Youyou looked up at him and listened attentively.

"This monster with a smiling face may be what it used to be."

"Then this head is a little too small." Lin Youyou pinched her fingers for comparison, not sure if it was not drawn well or for some reason, the only monster with a smiling face looked extremely small.

The snowman painted behind it is very big, as big as it is.

Li Zhe, who couldn't find a better explanation, shrugged his shoulders, and continued to look down along this line of thought for the time being: "Assume it was him, so when it first came, these monsters were very unhappy...but I don't know what happened , and suddenly become as happy as it is.”

Lin Youyou followed his words: "But they became unhappy again later."

"Well, so something should have happened again, causing these monsters to disappear one after another, maybe some kind of turmoil, mass extinction... In the end, it was the only survivor?"

"Then why did it turn into a snowman in the end?" Lin Youyou scratched her head subconsciously, and quickly retracted her little hands into her sleeves after being sore from the cold, and got into Li Zhe's big pocket: "I think this is a drawing made twice." This matter, because there is still an empty card in the middle, so it should be that before this snowman came, some terrible changes happened, and then the former monsters had disappeared, so it came... to investigate."

Li Zhe frowned and remained silent, always feeling that they were drifting away from the truth, silently recalling the rumors of the gang of monsters before, trying to overthrow everything and start over.

After a while, he suddenly spit out a word: "Summer."

Lin Youyou was puzzled: "Huh?"

"Summer, look, there are watermelons here." With his hands tucked into his sleeves, he pointed at the painting on the ground like a hand cannon, and Li Zhe explained: "Didn't Jinghua say that it only appeared in summer? "

Nodding with half-knowledge, Lin Youyou was still a little confused: "Yeah."

"In summer, the weather is hot, and these monsters don't have much energy, so no one pays attention to it after it comes." Looking down on these paintings one by one, Li Zhe peeled off: "Then they are happy because it can change the temperature. Low, so we played together."

Lin Youyou suddenly realized and nodded: "In the end, no one expected that the temperature would be so low, and then those monsters that suddenly disappeared were all frozen to death by it? Or what they said...frozen?"

"do not know."

Li Zhe shrugged, not to mention that these paintings are too rough, but also missing too much key information: "Who knows, maybe he died, or maybe he just avoided it far away."

Hearing what he said, Lin Youyou suddenly remembered how the group of monsters on the periphery were avoiding it: "It should have avoided it, and then slowly, no monster dared to approach it again."

Li Zhe nodded, and wanted to say something more, when suddenly he felt the temperature drop again, and a voice came from behind, very erratic and ethereal: "Are you still hot?"

Facing the biting cold wind, Li Zhe gritted his teeth and did not take a step back: "No, not at all, it's very cold, aren't you cold?"

"I..." The snowman opened his mouth to speak, but closed it obediently.

The raging wind died down, and although the temperature didn't change much, Li Zhe could feel that it was trying hard, trying to restrain the chill in its body.

But all seem to fail.

"All your friends left you?"

The snowman's huge figure trembled and froze there.

Li Zhe walked forward, and suddenly a reminder came from behind: "My lord, if you get too close, you will be frozen."

The little demon Ji Li was wearing a thin red robe, hiding far behind.

He stopped and looked at it, although it was very far away, apart from it, no other monster has dared to come in: "Why are you here, aren't you cold?"

Ji Li raised the Erguotou in Yang's hand, but he didn't know where he got it from: "Do you want two bites, sir?"

"……don't want."
