Chapter 800 A Stone Bridge
The closer they get to the position, the colder it becomes.
“We are almost there,” Wen Yihuan says.
The bearded man has been shivering.
Gao Ge turns to glance at him and slightly frowns.
Now, the bearded man looks rather pale, his lips turning blue with cold.
Then, he directly takes a Hot Bead and passes it to the bearded man. He has kept some Hot Beads since he went to the secret realm of the snow terrain. The Hot Bead is a treasure anyway but it can be found in the secret realm of the snow terrain here and there, which is worthless to Gao Ge.
“This is...” The bearded man is a bit confused.
“Just eat it,” Gao Ge says in a stern voice.
The bearded man takes the Hot Bead and puts it into his mouth decisively.
After the bearded man eats the Hot Bead, Gao Ge immediately transfers his power of stars into the bearded man. Otherwise, the property of the Hot Bead could really make the bearded man suffer a lot of pain. Thinking of the feeling of being burned, Gao Ge feels really uncomfortable.
After the extra property of the Hot Bead has been resolved, the bearded man looks better and immediately realizes that what Gao Ge gave him just now is a good thing. Hence, he is greatly grateful and wants to say something but he is interrupted by Gao Ge with a wave.
“Save it until we go back. Let’s continue walking.”
“Okay!” The bearded man hastens to nod, his eyes filled with tears.
Gao Ge is so different from Song Yang!
The bearded man wants to kill Song Yang even more.
More importantly, now, he has decided that his life doesn’t belong to him anymore. As long as Gao Ge needs it, he is ready to sacrifice his life. In the past, he would surely think the so-called saying that a gentleman was ready to die for his bosom friends was a big joke. However, now he realizes that it is so true. How long has Gao Ge known him? Besides, honestly, he may be of use but Gao Ge can borrow more people from Song Yuan if Gao Ge wants to. He is not an indispensable talent.
Despite that, Gao Ge is still willing to give the precious bead to him.
It is good enough to prove everything.
With such a master, he wouldn’t hesitate to lay down his life if need be.
If Gao Ge knows what he is thinking now, Gao Ge must be really speechless.
He simply doesn’t want to continue delaying time...
When the bearded man says that he won’t have any problem, Wen Yihuan finally leads them forward. Shortly, they hear the splash of water.
Wen Yihuan feels ecstatic and exclaims, “I was right. I was right...”
In fact, Wen Yihuan is really capable but in terms of locating and tomb raiding, he can’t be an expert. Coming into the tomb is actually a trial for him. He can only keep exploring and testing his theory in practice. It is like a mathematician acquires a correct answer after a process of calculability and deduction and thus feels a sense of satisfaction and achievement.
Seeing that Wen Yihuan looks excited, Gao Ge also feels as if a large stone were lifted off his chest.
He also knows that Wen Yihuan is not as reliable as he expected but now, based on Wen Yihuan’s performance, their deductions are all correct at least. Their efforts are not futile.
Due to excitement, Wen Yihuan also walks much faster. After walking past a narrow passage with his head lowered, he can see water dripping down the rock and a shallow puddle down there.
“It’s right here!” Wen Yihuan turns to say to Gao Ge, jumping about joyfully. He looks like a kid who gets an A in the exam. “Look, the rock with the drips is the Dragon Rock. Besides, the water is piercingly cold. It is also the reason why this place is cold.”
Speaking of that, Wen Yihuan swallows and continues saying, “Since we’ve found this place, we can find the gate of life. Meanwhile, it is relatively dangerous here.”
Hearing that, Earth Dragon feels somewhat perplexed.
“Since you call this place the gate of life, why is this place dangerous?”
Wen Yihuan takes a look at him and coughs, saying calmly, “Living is dying. Dying is living. This place is the gate of life but it is also the spot of death.”
Earth Dragon still feels rather confused.
So are Gao Ge and the bearded man.
Wen Yihuan says patiently, “This is a tomb. You can regard this place as a house of Yin and the residence we live in is called the house of Yang. Think about this. The place suitable for building a house of Yang can’t be suitable for creating a tomb while the place suitable for burying the dead can’t be a good place for building a house. In this case, it is easy to understand.”
Gao Ge and the others also take a tumble. Probably because Wen Yihuan used to be a teacher in Haicheng Cultivation Academy, he explains it in simple terms and tries to make it concise. Even the students of Haicheng Cultivation Academy can understand, let alone them.
“More mountains and rivers, more danger; different Taoist schools, different realms...” Wen Yihuan mutters, holding the compass in his hand left by his master and pacing around the narrow space.
Gao Ge lights up a cigarette. The burning cigarette is flickering in the darkness. When Wen Yihuan stops pacing, his cigarette is also burned off.
“Right here.” Wen Yihuan steps on the soft soil and turns to say to Gao Ge, “Come here. I need you to do me a favor.”
“To give you a kick?” Gao Ge laughs and walks forward.
“Yeah. A harsh kick.” Wen Yihuan gives a strange look.
Gao Ge knits his eyebrows and feels something is wrong but he still does as told.
He exerts his power of stars into his right leg and then strikes a kick. Instantly, he feels a sense of weightlessness and also faintly hears Wen Yihuan’s malicious snicker. When his leg lands on the ground, he hears Wen Yihuan say to Earth Dragon and the bearded man, “Now, we can jump down too. Gao Ge, go away!”
Gao Ge is speechless.
When Wen Yihuan jumps down, Gao Ge immediately gives him a kick.
“Ahem. Don’t you feel excited?” Wen Yihuan beats the dust off his butt.
While talking, he looks around and suddenly finds that there is a stone bridge nearby. Under the stone bridge is a winding river.
“I found it. It is right here, the position to enter the Ghost Sect...” Wen Yihuan touches his chin and looks at the stone bridge as if appreciating a perfect work of art.
