Chapter 28, Chapter Burning Ice
North Fourth District A4.
This Cape Watch border town is the highest among the three border towns. Standing on the city wall, you can even see the gargoyle sculptures on the towers of the North Second District.
Watching Cape has been covered by ice and snow for a long time, and the temperature has hardly reached zero degrees Celsius. People here are accompanied by snow all year round, and basically suffer from snow blindness. Most of the pupils are gray and black, and their bodies are bloated.
Every time Luo Shang'an comes, he will be treated as a guest of honor, because his goods are urgently needed and in short supply here - kindling.
"The fire that never goes out".
The city lord of the watch corner heard the news of Luo Shang'an's arrival, and went out to greet him in person, smiling from ear to ear.
"Boss Luo, you only come here for half a year. Contact me with the coordinates in advance. I'll send someone to pick you up in the North District." Walking in with his hand, "It's just in time for our Ice Burning Festival, let's watch it together, I used the kindling you brought last time! You really deserve to be Boss Luo, the goods in your hand are different from others."
Luo Shang'an and the city lord greeted politely, and walked all the way ahead.Bei Qiao wrapped herself up tightly, and silently followed behind Luo Shang'an. From the perspective of outsiders, it looked like Boss Luo had brought a small follower from the south.
"Boss Luo, look over there." The city lord stood still in front of a tall iron arch, pointing upwards.
Luo Shang'an and Bei Qiao looked up together.
Below the arch, hangs an extremely huge brazier. Above the brazier is a round transparent ice crystal. The brazier is constantly burning. The ice crystal melts with the high temperature, and the vaporized steam rises and touches the extremely cold air. Quickly condenses and falls.The pure white snow and brilliant red complement each other, like stars dotted with holy grails, surrounded by a silver-white background like heaven.
The flames burned fiercely, not dimmed by dripping water or cold weather.
Bei Qiao glanced at Luo Shang'an, and thought that this fire must have been fueled by Luo Shang'an, but he still hadn't figured out how to achieve this effect.
"The Burning Ice Festival is really grand." Luo Shang'an said with emotion, but there was not much smile on his face.
About five or six strong men stood on the walls around the arch, all of them wrapped in fur coats and fully armed, with ropes around their waists, ice picks tied to their shoulders, and spiked boots on their feet.
The city lord excitedly introduced to Luo Shangan, "See? Those are the warriors we sent this year. They will challenge the ice cliff! The three towns in Cape Watch will start the 'Ice Burning Project' together. This year we are bound to conquer peak!"
Bei Qiao finally couldn't hold back and interjected: "Why do you have to go to the top of the ice cliff?"
Only then did the city lord notice Bei Qiao, as if Bei Qiao had been like air before, and said casually, "Oh, because we want to know what's behind the ice cliff."
"It's the blue sea." Bei Qiao said seriously, "Don't go there, don't look, don't disturb them, this is because someone put ice cliffs to block the blue sea to protect you."
As soon as Bei Qiao said the words, the city lord looked up and laughed loudly as if he had heard some particularly funny joke, and the hot air in his mouth condensed into mist in the air.
"Boss Luo, the little brother next to you is really interesting." The city lord laughed until tears came out, and quickly wiped them away with his gloves, "Isn't something like the blue sea the sea? How could it be possible to climb so high? Besides, we Cape Watch is the highest place in the entire North District, and the blue sea is absolutely impossible to hurt us."
Halfway through the speech, the city lord seemed to be remembering something important, and half-closed his eyes, "I see, little brother, are you the person involved in the Blue Ocean Incident in the North District before? There are indeed many people who came out of nowhere Lan Hai was injured or even passed away. Well, if you want to live in the Watch Point, it's not impossible for Boss Luo's face, after all, you were brought here by him."
Bei Qiao took a breath of the bitingly cold air and felt that his lungs were about to freeze.He shook his head - let him live in such a cold place, it would be better to let him jump into the oil pan and swim.
"My lord, what Xiao Qiao said makes sense." Luo Shang'an answered, "Although the blue sea is called 'sea', it is actually completely different from the real sea. To put it a bit exaggerated, it even has self-awareness."
The city lord frowned when he heard it, he interrupted with a laugh, and waved his hand: "Our people are not afraid of those, the Burning Ice Festival is a tradition, and I can't just stop it, can I?"
Luo Shang'an and Bei Qiao looked at each other and sighed in their hearts almost at the same time.
It doesn't make sense, so I can only think of other ways.
The cold wind blew the high flames into all directions. Luo Shangan stared at the flames for a moment, took out a few bottles of blue sea blocker from his pants pocket, and shook them in front of the city lord: "City lord, this is something for dealing with blue seas. For a certain period of time to suspend the attack of the blue sea, it is best to save some to be prepared."
The city lord picked up the small bottle and looked at it. The transparent liquid was shaking in the glass tube. The city lord let out a long breath from his nose, "Boss Luo, this thing is quite expensive. I don't think it's necessary..."
Luo Shang'an interrupted him in time, and said with a smile: "The city lord misunderstood, I don't intend to ask for money, I just want to exchange terms with the city lord."
"Oh, boss Luo, tell me."
Luo Shang'an simply smoothed his sleeves, and said a few words: "When they go to Bingya, take me with them."
"Crackling".
The flames burning in the air burst, and the snowflakes scattered on the edge of the brazier, and quickly melted into water.
evening.
"Ah."
Bei Qiao sneezed, and he curled up in a corner by the bed, wrapping himself more tightly with a thick quilt.
A hand reached out and touched his forehead. Bei Qiao remained motionless like a docile puppy. After a while, the hand left, and he heard Luo Shangan say next to him. "Fortunately, the temperature is not high. You and I will share a room tonight, so as not to cause trouble in the middle of the night."
"No." Bei Qiao's voice was muffled, "I'm not used to living with other people."
"You can make excuses for lying, you don't even need to type the draft, who taught you that." Luo Shang'an didn't care what Bei Qiao said, and just mixed the medicine in the cup, stirred it evenly with a small iron rod, and handed it To Bei Qiao's lips.He just said one word - "drink".
Bei Qiao stretched out one hand from under the quilt to hold the cup, his beautiful sky-blue eyes were dull, he swung the clear liquid in the cup, and said, "You asked me to go to the ice cliff with you, I just drink."
"No." Luo Shang'an's voice was very gentle, but there was no doubt about it.
"Then I won't drink it." Bei Qiao sniffed, "Why should I drink it if I don't go to Bingya? It's just a cold, and it's not a serious illness. There's no need to take medicine."
"Xiyou told me about the border of the southern district. The state of Lan Hai is not right recently. I can't let you get close to the ice cliff. You should die." Luo Shangan took the medicine from Bei Qiao's hand and put it in the He took a sip, "It's not bitter. If you don't drink it, I'll feed you."
When Bei Qiao thought of the scene where Luo Shang'an was holding the cup and pouring medicine into his mouth, his scalp felt numb.He immediately snatched the cup from Luo Shangan's hand, raised his head and drank it, then put the cup back into Luo Shangan's hand, pulled up the quilt and lay down to cover his head.
"Little Qiao." Luo Shang'an called him.
"I'm asleep, don't pay attention to me." Bei Qiao's voice was muffled as if it came from a pressure cooker.
Luo Shangan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he walked over and pulled down the quilt, letting Bei Qiao expose his head.Bei Qiao's eyes were closed, her hair was a mess, and there were still medicine stains on her lips.
Luo Shangan sat down by the bed, and wiped away the medicine stains on Bei Qiao's lips.
Bei Qiao slowly opened her eyes and looked at Luo Shang'an.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to me." Luo Shang'an said.
This sentence was spoken softly and in a low voice, as if comforting a baby in the cradle.
Bei Qiao pursed her lips and turned to face the other side of the wall.He didn't say anything.
---North Second District Tower---
Xiyou arrived in the North District about a day later than Luo Shangan and the others.
There are two places in the North District that are the most eye-catching - one is the watch corner in the North [-]th District, and the other is the tower in the North [-]nd District.
In terms of livability, the tower is far better than Cape Watch. There are not as many ice cliffs as in the North Fourth District. The only thing that hinders life and travel is the frozen soil.
The tower looks more refined and warm than the Watch Point, and the main color is blue and white.As the name suggests, the tallest building in Tower City is a 60-meter-tall spire, with a gargoyle painted in ink sitting on top of the roof.This is the place with the most frequent trade in the entire North District, and it was also one of the most severely hit areas when the Blue Ocean incident occurred.
Xiyou came here to investigate the whole story of the Lan Hai incident.
Relying on his status as the leader of Huahuayu, Xiyou entered the tower city very smoothly.
He really felt that the northern and southern districts really have completely different styles. Judging from people's living habits and trading methods, people in the north pay attention to process and quality, while people in the southern district pay more attention to practicality and efficiency—after all, they are more important than From the low temperature and severe cold in the northern area, the difficulty of survival in the southern area is not only the weather and environmental conditions, but also monsters such as Luoqiu giant sandworm and red beauty that threaten human life.
Standing on the street of the tower building, Xiyou exhaled lightly. The gas quickly condensed into mist and dispersed in the air.
On both sides of the street are small blockhouses of about one square meter built of ice bricks. Merchants sit in the blockhouses to do business, windproof and heat-proof, and there are small tables for storing things.
However, the girl at the railing on the second floor of the street caught Xi You's attention. The girl had a bow tie on her hair, was wearing a cotton dress, and was sitting leaning on the railing, with a sign beside her.There is a big word on the sign - "Looking for a businessman from South Second District".
Xi You crossed several white bunkers, stood under the railing where the girl was, raised his head and said, "Little lady, why are you looking for people from the southern district?"
The girl took a serious look at Xiyou, and her gaze swept across Xiyou's suit, the back of her hair in turn, and finally her eyes fell on the black rose on Xiyou's chest.
"Looking at you, you seem to be from the Southern District." The girl's eyes lit up suddenly, "Brother, do you know Boss Luo?"
Xiyou showed a polite smile, and stretched out his white-gloved hand to the little girl, "Yes, I am a friend of Luo Shang'an, Xiyou from South District [-]."
The girl grinned happily, held Xiyou's hand with both hands, and responded, "Hi, my name is Aqiu."
