"Ah, what is this..."

Holding the fluorescent lamp, Hu Qian suddenly screamed and was startled by the figure in the ice.

The fluorescent lamp in my hand almost fell to the ground.

"Junior sister, what's wrong? This is..."

"Be careful, it's okay..."

Three men quickly ran over, holding fluorescent lamps in their hands, and also illuminated the ice in front of them.

I saw the figure in the ice. There was indeed a person sitting in the ice, frozen by the ice.

"It's nothing, just alone..."

A young man in gray robe said: "Junior sister, don't be afraid. In this ice cave, many people freeze to death like this every year..."

"Over time, it has become like this..."

Another young man also smiled and said: "Yes, junior sister, it's nothing. There are not ten thousand people like this who freeze to death, but there are hundreds. We will see you later."

The three senior brothers comforted the junior sister here. This junior sister followed them down to the ice cave to get ice for the first time. It’s not like they are all experienced. In this ice cave, there are such immortal cultivators who freeze to death, and

There are too many other creatures, and many people freeze to death here every year.

But the junior sister didn't say anything. Instead, she looked a little ugly. She pointed at the people inside and said, "Look, he seems to be moving..."

"Moving?"

"How is that possible? Junior sister, did you see it wrong?"

The three senior brothers immediately came forward and took a closer look.

"Oh my god"

"He is really moving. He is still breathing. There seems to be a small space around him and he is breathing."

The three senior brothers were also frightened, and one of them even screamed something like "Oh my God". They were so frightened.

"Senior, I'm sorry, we are just here to get ice, and we have absolutely no intention of disturbing your practice and retreat..."

One of the young men quickly put his hands together and apologized to the people in the ice: "You should hurry up..."

The other three people quickly imitated his example and apologized to the people inside while lying down. After saying this, the four people quickly left the ice cave.

In their opinion, it is normal for people to freeze to death here. When the cold wave comes every year, some people freeze to death inside before they have time to come out. Even the cold wave here comes and goes, and sometimes the weather is quite good, and there are also

A cold wave will appear and freeze a large number of creatures below to death.

But once someone can survive in such an environment and practice here, there is no need to think about it. The other person's cultivation must be very strong and he must be an unparalleled master.

Not long after they left, Ye Chu slowly opened his eyes. The person in the ice was none other than Ye Chu.

"call……"

Ye Chu exhaled and burned a passage through the thick ice in front of him. The place where he was immediately turned into a water curtain hole, and the ice melted into ice water.

Ye Chu slowly walked out, stepped on the ice, shook off the dirt on his body, and felt relaxed.

"I don't know how long it has been..."

This ice cave is not an extremely cold place. Ye Chu came here just to enjoy the autumn breeze and absorb some of the power of the extreme cold. However, he did not expect that something unexpected happened along the way.

As a result, he suddenly entered seclusion here, and was sealed by the ice unknowingly. Even he himself didn't know how long it had been.

If those guys hadn't woken him up just now, he still doesn't know how long he would have stayed here.

Ye Chu looked around the ice cave. There were many small rooms dug out in the ice cave, and some square ice cubes were placed in each small room. This place seemed to be used by them to get ice.

Used because it is summer outside and the weather is unbearable all year round. In a high temperature environment, they need to use a lot of ice cubes.

It would be more troublesome to make ice by yourself. If you practice cold arts, you probably won’t practice in a place like this. You should choose an extremely cold place. Therefore, the cultivators here should send people over from time to time to come down to this place to get ice.

Use on ice.

The internal space of the ice cave is not particularly large, only about the size of ten or eight football fields. Ye Chu walked around inside for several times, but found nothing else.

"Could it be that the strange movement before was just a strange movement in my heart?"

Ye Chu thought for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out what happened and why he entered the retreat.

Even the sense of the five senses from the outside is gone, so it is sealed in the ice, no different from an ice sculpture of a dead person.

Since there was no gain, Ye Chu did not stay here any longer and came out soon.

As soon as I arrived outside, I saw a group of black-robed guards coming over there. These guys were all wearing armor. They should be guards in the army or in the city.

Their cultivation levels are not particularly high, but they are very even. They have all reached about the level of the second or third level of a demon god, which is quite a good level of strength.

There were a total of twelve people in the group. After arriving at the ice cave, someone immediately gave an order: "You two stay on top, and the others will follow me down to the ice cave. Be sure to fill up all the mustard seeds before dark, and leave...

…”

Two people were guarding the top, while the other ten people quickly descended into the ice cave, probably to move ice blocks and pack mustard seeds.

Ye Chu had already used the concealment technique, and these guards could not find him. It happened that Ye Chu had nothing to do, so he scanned their Yuanling and learned the current time.

"Fortunately, it was just sealed down there for three months, not too long."

What made Ye Chu let out a sigh of relief was that he had not been sealed down below for a hundred and eighty years, but only three months had passed.

However, Ye Chu scanned their Yuanlings and learned some other information. It turned out that these guys were the guards of the Beiwanghou Mansion. They came here to move ice cubes for the event in the Beiwang Houfu two days later.

A great event is coming.

In two days, the Northern Prince's Mansion will hold an engagement ceremony. The third princess of the Northern Prince is going to marry the second son of the Southern Prince. The two families are well-matched.

It's just that not many people know about this marriage now. The two of them also happened to have a cousin, Deacon Ren, who happened to be in charge of this matter in the Prince's Palace in the North, so they were informed.

Not only their team was fetching ice here, but also seven other teams, a total of eight small teams of guards, were fetching ice from several ice fields near the Bei Wanghou Mansion.

ice.

These two guys not only knew about this, but also knew about some of the rifts between the Northern Prince's Palace and the Palace of the City Lord of the South Wind Holy City, and now even they knew that the Northern Prince wanted to be the Lord of the South Wind Holy City.

"The Prince of the North still wants to be the city lord?"

There was a lot of other information, and Ye Chu had no time to pay attention to it. However, he was a little unhappy when he learned that the Northern Prince was eyeing the position of the Lord of the South Wind Holy City.

"If you become the city lord, how can my eldest brother and sister-in-law, who are my in-laws and mother-in-law, still mess around?"

"How can we obtain hundreds of billions of spiritual stones every year and a large number of heavenly materials and earthly treasures?"

Ye Chu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and a cold look flashed across his face. The other party was trying to steal the cake from him and Hong Qi.

And this time they are engaged in such an engagement, it is most likely that the Northern Prince wants to form an alliance with the Southern Prince, and may be secretly discussing how to seize the city lord's position. When Ye Chu heard about this, he couldn't ignore it.

.

Beiwanghou City is not far from here, only 800,000 miles away. In less than a few breaths, Ye Chu arrived outside Beiwanghou City.

It can be said that the architectural style of Beiwanghou City is very different from that of Nanfeng Holy City. The city wall here is towering into the clouds. This city wall alone is probably several thousand meters high. It is all made of large bluestones. It is indeed

Very shocking.

Ye Chu has been to many ancient cities, as well as some super big cities. It is really rare for a city wall to be as high as this.

Not only that, there is a large defensive formation outside Beiwanghou City. It is really not easy to forcefully break into Beiwanghou City.

Ye Chu was too lazy to break through and went directly to the city gate. The guard blocked him with a big sword: "You are not a resident of Beiwanghou City. Who are you? Show me your order to enter the city..."

"Entry order?"

Ye Chu had never heard of such a thing. He immediately scanned this guy's Yuanling and immediately knew the relevant things.

But I also know that these guys will usually let them go as long as they collect some spirit stones.

Ye Chu quietly presented ten thousand spirit stones, and the guard immediately put down the sword: "Let's go..."

Normally, if someone wanted to enter the city, they would usually give him 500 to 1,000 spirit stones. This time, someone came and offered 10,000. He was obviously a very rich guy, so they would naturally let him go.

By scanning the guarding Yuanlings, Ye Chu also learned some important information about the city. Ye Chu was not in a hurry to enter the Beiwang Houfu. It is said that the magic circle there is the most powerful during the day and the weakest at midnight.

, if you want to infiltrate, then that’s the best time.

After practicing hard for several years outside, Ye Chu has never had a full meal, and he has been in and out of places with harsh cold and harsh environment. It is rare to come to such a big city, how can Ye Chu not eat?

A meal.

Ye Chu came directly to the Tianxiang Tower here, which is also the favorite place for the dignitaries in the city to come and spend money. Not only are there delicious food, but also the ladies are all beautiful and fragrant. As long as you can afford it,

, you can also bring them into the room at any time and do whatever you want with them.

But Ye Chu came here just to eat and to find out more information.

He refused the lady boss's offer to bring him a girl, and gave her a mustard seed, which contained five million spiritual stones, and said to her: "Madam boss, I want to buy some information from you, you should sell it too, right?"

"

"Buying news?"

The landlady's consciousness immediately penetrated the mustard seeds, and when she saw that there were only five million spiritual stones inside, she couldn't help but feel a little interested.

"Sir, what kind of news do you want to buy? Our store sells everything, people, news, and food. We have everything you want..." the landlady said in a girly tone, pinching her orchid fingers.
