Enter Chang Xiangsi and help Jingzhai fight

Chapter 175: Warmth and Coldness

I nodded, jumped up and landed a little ahead of him.

Although I tried hard to keep my steps steady, the tree was tilted too far and I still fell forward.

Tu Shanjing caught me, and took a step back with his left and right feet crossed to relieve the force of the downward rush.

So he held my hand and I supported him, and we walked down the tree carefully.

Passing by the place where Gui Fangqian had inserted his long sword into the stone wall, Tu Shanjing reached out and took it out. I handed the scabbard to him and happened to see that there was a totem family emblem of a silver snake entwined engraved on the scabbard.

Tu Shan Jing sheathed his sword, tied the long knife around his waist, and carried the Tu Ling sword on his back.

He and I crossed the long river bank which was still frozen and walked towards the cave entrance we came from. Unexpectedly, when we arrived at the cave entrance, we found that it had been destroyed by Gui Fangqian.

I said angrily: "This damn Fang Qian actually left no way out! How did he manage to block such a big hole?"

Tu Shanjing smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe there are some secrets in other palaces that we haven't been to that he has used. Forget it, let's not think about it. At this point, we can only go down this glacier."

He and I walked downstream along the glacier.

I didn't feel it because of the fight and tension just now, but now that I've calmed down and my clothes are soaked, I feel a little cold.

Although I gritted my teeth and held back from saying anything, the trembling in my body still betrayed me.

Tu Shanjing was walking behind me, and suddenly he raised his hand, a ray of light shone on me, and my clothes were dry immediately. It turned out that he had used a drying technique.

"Young Master, you are injured, so you have to save your spiritual energy. If anything happens next, don't use it on me." Although I was grateful, I still couldn't help but remind him.

He smiled and said, "It's okay. I won't die anytime soon. Don't worry."

After he comforted me like this, I became even more worried, so I quickened my pace, thinking of getting out as early as possible.

"Sir, how long do you think this river is? Will the river become narrower as we walk along it and we be unable to cross?" I asked worriedly.

"It won't be very long, nor will it be very narrow. Because I have seen a river flowing to the ground in the back mountain. The water is still flowing fast and the river is very wide. We should be able to reach it after walking for a while." His voice sounded from behind.

However, as if to slap him in the face, when we turned another corner, the river in front of us suddenly narrowed and dropped at a very steep angle. The bottom was not visible. There was a hole surrounded by stone walls on all sides. It seemed that only one person could pass through.

Tu Shanjing took off the long sword from his waist, wrapped the long tassel at the end of the handle tightly three times, and threw the sword down along the ice surface of the river.

The long knife knocked on the ice all the way, and it reached the bottom in a short while.

Tu Shanjing listened attentively and said, "I'll go down first."

I held him back and asked worriedly, "Sir, is it safe?"

He smiled at me and said, "Don't worry, the Nine-tailed Fox Clan is good at tracking, and it won't be difficult for me to locate by sound."

Only then did I let go of his hand and watched him leap down from the narrow hole.

I didn't have his ability to locate the position by sound, but I knew that he would call me down soon, so I jumped down bravely. I didn't dare to open my eyes the whole time, and I just felt the cold air enveloping me from all directions.

Then I fell into a soft and warm embrace. I opened my eyes and met his pair of bright eyes, clearer than the ice behind me.

I shivered and said, "Sir, it's really smart."

Just because this place became open again, and at the end of the road, a little light could be seen from afar at the exit, as if we were about to walk out of the mountain.

His face darkened and he asked, "Why are you so cold?" Then he touched my cheek with the back of his hand.

"No, it's okay. It will be fine in a while. Sir, please don't use your spiritual power anymore. There may be enemies outside." I said with trembling teeth.

He handed me the knife in his hand and asked me to tie it around my waist. He also took off the Tuling sword on my back and put it on my back, then said to me: "Turn around."

I didn't understand what he meant, but I turned around as he said.

There was a flash of light behind me, and then my back felt heavy, and then a soft and warm feeling surrounded me.

A big, furry, snow-white tail gently rested on my head, then on my neck, shoulders, upper arms, wrists, waist, and knees.

He transformed into his original form and made me a living divine fox fur cloak.

I was startled and quickly reached out to hold him back, saying, "Sir! Hold on tight, don't fall!"

There was silence behind him, and then he said, "It's okay, I'm holding the sword."

I thought to myself, no wonder the belt on my back became so tight, and said with a smile, "Then I'll carry you on my back, and you don't have to hold on. I'm not saying the belt is tight, but if the sword accidentally slips out and cuts your hand - that, your claws!"

He paused and replied, "Okay."

Now I felt warm, and walked with him on my back for a while, when I suddenly realized that the place where my hands were now supporting was his... buttocks? That, this, that, how shameful!

I was panicking and my hands were shaking, and I felt my fingertips touching the base of his drooping tail.

He groaned and stretched out a little paw to press my back.

I felt like a cat lover whose own cat stepped on my breasts. I smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! My hand was shaking, I didn't mean to do that."

He groaned again. Although I couldn't see his face, I knew that if he were a human, his face would be red.

This road doesn't feel long at all, or rather, I wish it were longer.

The further I walked, the brighter the front became, and in the light, I walked out of the cave.

I raised my head and looked around, and saw that we were still in the mountains, but the sky had become slightly brighter, which meant that a night had passed.

When I took the next step, there was a "crack" sound under my feet. I looked down and saw that my feet had broken through the ice and stepped into the water. Before I felt the coolness, there was a sound of water behind me, and the rolling river rushed towards us.

He removed the tails that were wrapped around me, and the nine tails spread out like an umbrella to block the first and most turbulent wave, but the water was rushing fast after all, and we were still washed downstream.

Fortunately, there was a curved river channel downstream, and the river made a big turn before continuing to flow, so we were washed onto the river bank.

He was soaked all over, with all four legs stretched out. He first hunched his body, then shook off the water on his body. With a flash of inspiration, he turned into a human form.

He shook water all over my face, so I raised my hand to wipe it off and asked, "Sir, are you okay?"

He looked around and saw that there was no danger. He raised his hand and cast a drying spell, recovering to a less embarrassed appearance. He raised his hand and cast it on me again, and replied: "Not bad."

I touched my back and found the Tuling sword was still there. I touched my waist and found Gui Fangqian's long sword was still there. I breathed a sigh of relief and saw Tu Shanjing take off the Jade Fox card and shook it. Soon, the sound of flapping wings came from the air.
