One and a half months later, in the upper latitude of the snowfield.
A Crow flew through the layers of wind and snow. In the blizzard environment where visibility was very low, it was lucky to find the burnt forest through the STAR technique perception.
The forest that had once been burned down was now completely covered by white snow.
Jiang Xiao flew past the Beacon towers, but there was no smoke coming out of them.
Jiang Xiao was a little worried and quickly flew down the canyon in search of the residence of Hu Wei and canglan.
Plop plop plop …
The pitch-black Crow flapped its wings. It did not even transform into a human form as it flew straight into the tunnel. In the darkness, it flew with ease.
“What?” Canglan lay on his side on the bed, gently patting Yuan Yuan’s back with one hand to coax him to sleep. However, he seemed to have felt something.
Canglan frowned slightly and glanced at Roly Poly. He immediately got off the bed and a dagger appeared in his slender palm.
Roly Poly was completely unaware of this. His little face was buried in a layer of soft fur and he was sleeping very soundly.
The bamboo bear beside him was sleeping even more comfortably than Roly Poly. It was sprawled on the thick white Ghoul skin blanket with a big belly and was even snoring …
Canglan stood at the side of the stone Chamber’s door, his body pressed against the wall, his hand gripping a dagger.
A few seconds later, a pitch-black Crow hopped into the stone room.
The crow’s lonely eyes glowed with a Scarlet light. It raised its head and looked at canglan, who was trying to sneak an attack.
Canglan was slightly taken aback. He lowered his head and looked at the little fellow who had jumped in. As if he had realized something, his trembling voice was filled with surprise.”Jiang Xiao?”
“CAW~” the one-eyed Crow cawed softly, and its body transformed.
“Eh?” Cang LAN looked at Jiang Xiao and was completely stunned.
Jiang Xiao removed the huge Mountaineering Bag and asked,””Where’s Hu Wei and Zhang songfu?”
Cang LAN covered her mouth with one hand and fixed her gaze on Jiang Xiao’s face, unable to say a word for a long time.
Jiang Xiao scratched his head and said in embarrassment,””I’m not wearing a mask, don’t you recognize me?”
Cang LAN looked at Jiang Xiao quietly and remained silent for a while before saying,””You’re so young …”
Jiang Xiao walked towards the bed and looked at Yuan Yuan and Zhu Xiong, who were sleeping soundly. He nodded in his heart.
Whether or not Zhu Xiong could play with him was not certain.
But in terms of sleeping with someone, this big plush toy was an expert.
“How old are you? 17？18？”Canglan asked in a soft voice.
Jiang Xiao smiled and waved his hand.”Why do you have to worry about this?” he asked.
“I just feel that at your age. You shouldn’t be going through such …”
Jiang Xiao interrupted Cang LAN with a smile and said,””I asked for it,”
“Hehe.” Cang LAN was amused by Jiang Xiao’s words and had a look of admiration on her face. She looked at Jiang Xiao as if he was Yuan Yuan.
Jiang Xiao was immediately unhappy and thought, what’s going on? why did I have to lower my status by a generation after I took off my mask?
Cang LAN could acutely sense Jiang Xiao’s emotions. Blushing slightly, she turned her head and walked towards the bed. She sat down and said softly,””Old Hu and Song Fu went hunting. Ever since you sent a playmate to Roly Poly, we’ve been running out of food.”
“Hahaha.” Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“Oh …” Roly Poly rubbed his eyes as if he was about to be woken up.
Canglan hurriedly reached out and gently patted the round back in a gentle and rhythmic manner. The little fellow rubbed the bamboo bear’s fur and continued to sleep.
Jiang Xiao felt a little embarrassed and said softly,””I’m going to rest for a while too. When they come back, call me. I have something to discuss with you. ”
Canglan nodded, stood up, walked towards the door, and led the way for Jiang Xiao.””I’ll make the bed for you, you go … You must be exhausted. ”
Seeing that canglan was hesitant to speak, Jiang Xiao followed after her and said,””I’ll tell you everything in a while. ”
“Yes …” Canglan replied indifferently.
She brought Jiang Xiao into a stone room and carefully made a bed for him before turning around and leaving.
Jiang Xiao lay on the soft and thick fur of the White Ghoul and thought about his words before falling asleep gradually.
A few hours later, Hu Wei and Zhang songfu each dragged two huge white ghouls in the wind and snow and returned to their residence in the canyon.
When the two of them heard that Jiang Xiao had returned, they were overjoyed and hurriedly walked into the cave after throwing the White Ghoul’s corpse away.
When he walked closer to the stone room, he saw a strange scene.
Jiang Xiao, Zhu Xiong, and Roly Poly were sitting on the bed and doing “you take one, I take one”…
“I’m back, Jiang …” Hu Wei’s words came to an abrupt end. Cang LAN did tell him that Jiang Xiao had returned, but he didn’t tell him that Jiang Xiao had taken off his mask.
“Dad! The circles on uncle Quanquan’s face are gone!” When Yuan Yuan saw that Hu Wei had returned, she immediately jumped off the bed and jumped into Hu Wei’s arms.
Zhang songfu’s face was also filled with the joy of reuniting, but he said,””Brother, I was wondering how ugly you would be. Isn’t this young man quite energetic?”
Jiang Xiao scratched his head and pointed at his nose.””You call this spirit? This is called handsome, okay?”
“Hahaha.” Zhang songfu walked over with a smile, hugged Jiang Xiao, and patted his back fiercely.”Welcome home!”
Jiang Xiao grinned and thought,’welcome home, what a beautiful word.’
In this world of Ice and snow, there was still such a group of people holding fast, waiting for his return …
After a few minutes …
Cang LAN left Yuan Yuan and Zhu Xiong in the “master bedroom” to play. She then returned to the stone room where Jiang Xiao was in, only to see Hu Wei holding a stone kettle and putting it over the bonfire. The three of them were chatting.
“They’re here. ” Jiang Xiao nodded at Cang LAN and said,”I’m back because I made great progress during my last exploration.”
Canglan leaned against the stone wall and observed the children playing next door through the small holes in the wall from time to time.
“In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.” Hu Wei sat in front of the stone table and poured hot water for Jiang Xiao’s stone bowl while sighing.”Time has passed too quickly ever since you brought us the clock.”
Jiang Xiao smiled and said,”I didn’t find the entrance to the lower layer of the snowfield. I didn’t find a way to go home.”
Hearing this, Cang Lan’s expression darkened and he sighed softly.
Hu Wei smiled indifferently, as if he didn’t care.
However, Jiang Xiao changed the topic and said,’but I’ve found a way forward.’
“What?” “What do you mean?” Zhang songfu asked hurriedly.
Jiang Xiao held the stone bowls for the three of them and drew a triangle on the table before explaining the theory of the abnormal sphere to everyone.
Unsurprisingly, everyone’s expression was dumbfounded, as if they were listening to a fantasy story.
After a long while, Jiang Xiao continued,”the old man from last time, He Yun. He’s our great pioneer. He took me to the strange planet.”
As I said, the alien planet is another version of earth, with day and night, Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter …”
As Jiang Xiao explained, everyone couldn’t help but get excited and their hearts began to race.
Ordinary people might not believe it, but they really needed to see the night sky and the morning sun. They really wanted to experience the taste of spring, summer, and autumn even in their dreams …
The upper layer of the snowfield not only imprisoned their bodies, but also their souls.
Jiang Xiao said,”I’m not wearing a mask this time because I’m not planning to hide anything. Besides, I think …” All of you have already speculated that I’m not a real person but a summoning-type STAR technique, right?”
The three of them looked at each other and didn’t make a sound. They didn’t look surprised.
Jiang Xiao nodded and continued,”senior He Yun gave me directions to the alien planet precisely because I’m not afraid of death.
The reason why senior He Yun didn’t save you from your misery was that the strange ball was too dangerous. The Galaxy stage martial artists that you think are overlords are nothing in the strange ball. ”
Jiang Xiao then sighed helplessly and said,””In fact, I died the moment I entered the strange ball …”
“Ah?” Hu Wei’s face tightened.
“Brother, you …” Zhang songfu said.
Jiang Xiao waved his hand and said,”I’m fine. Thank you for your concern. It’s not as serious as you think. I’m used to dying.”
Canglan was speechless.
However, Jiang Xiao lied in order to comfort the three of them. He would never be able to get used to death.
However, after his decoy STAR technique was upgraded to diamond quality, he could directly summon the decoy and replace it. Hence, he could avoid the process of death, which made Jiang Xiao feel much more comfortable.
“Back to the topic, let’s talk about a serious problem.” Jiang Xiao bent his fingers and knocked on the stone table.”I found a safe place to stay in the strange planet. It’s called the Baihua forest tribe.”
“A tribe?” Zhang songfu asked curiously. Barbarian tribe?”
“Yes, yes.” Jiang Xiao nodded and confirmed,”yes, the creatures on the alien planet are very intelligent. I’ve already told you about the projection and the weakening of strength. Hence, the hardware and software of the creatures on the alien planet are the original and have not been weakened.”
Jiang Xiao gave them some time to digest the information and continued,””There was once a human who entered the alien planet. It was a mother and daughter, and the mother’s name was Zhu Yue.
Lady Zhu Yue is extremely respected in the Baihua forest tribe. She was also the one who opened the door for the Baihua forest tribe and led this group of barbarians into the Iron Age and the farming age …”
The more Jiang Xiao said, the more the trio looked forward to it.
“So …” Jiang Xiao ended his long-winded speech and said,”the alien planet is indeed dangerous and not a place for humans to live in at all. However, I’ve found a place where the savages can provide us with shelter and we can also teach them martial arts and knowledge … Are you guys going?”
Zhang songfu opened his mouth and was about to agree, but he stopped himself and turned to look at Hu Wei.
Canglan also looked at Hu Wei with a pleading expression. In their hearts, they didn’t need to consider Jiang Xiao’s proposal at all.
Hu Wei looked at Jiang Xiao and slowly reached out his hand.
Jiang Xiao was slightly surprised and reached out to shake her hand, only to be pulled up by Hu Wei and hugged him tightly.
“Thank you, brother. I don’t know how to thank you …” He said. Hu Wei’s strength was great, and he was also very excited.
Jiang Xiao chuckled and said,”there’s no need to thank me. I’ve brought a bunch of crop seeds this time. After you go to the Baihua forest tribe, you can study how to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes.”
Hu Wei,”uh …”
