Chapter 299 Weird

Ning Yan nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Huang knows the place?"

Although Ning Jian did not take Huang Xiazi as his master, they were already master and disciple, so the way they addressed each other also changed. He no longer called him old gentleman, but called him Uncle Huang.

Blind Huang pulled out a compass from his pocket, handed it to Ning Jian, and said, "Use this."

The terrain of Mangshan is complex and the environment is somewhat unfathomable. If you can't find it by relying solely on people, you naturally have to seek other methods.

Ning Yan took the compass from his hand. The compass was seven inches in size, which was considered a medium-sized compass.

Along the way, Huang the Blind instilled all the knowledge that should and should not be told into Ning Yan. Ning Yan had a good memory and learned most of it.

Huang Xiazi had also told him about this compass. Although he had memorized the theoretical knowledge, it was indeed the first time he used it in practice.

Huang Xiazi waited for him to take the compass and said, "Ask me if you don't understand anything."

Ning Yan responded with an "OK", then began to look at the compass and walk in the direction of the pointer.

Huo? took a closer look at the compass and found that he could not understand anything except the words on it, so he stopped looking and followed Ning Yan forward.

When Huang the Blind was teaching Ning Jian on the road, he also listened. Although he understood the words, he was not interested in it and gave up.

Following the compass, they walked forward and after several turns, they came to a steep cliff and several people got off their horses.

Shang Chenyi looked up at the mountain. His neck was almost as long as a swan's, but he couldn't see where the top of the mountain was.

He lowered his head and rubbed his aching neck, then asked doubtfully, "Brother Qi, are you sure this is the place?"

Ye Buli and Huo? also looked around. The surrounding area was overgrown with weeds, dense forests, and steep mountain walls, but there was no sign of water. They both looked at Ning Yan with confusion.

Ning Yan looked down at the compass and then at the map, and found that the river was indeed nearby. The orange dots on the map were them, and the blue dots were right next to the orange dots.

But there was indeed a mountain before them, with many strange peaks, and climbing it was not an easy task. So where did the water come from? It couldn't be that they had to pry the mountain apart, could they?

Huang Xiazi asked, "Are there any other passages around here that we can go through?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Buli waved his hand, and several subordinates hurried to check around.

After searching around, Li Hu came back and reported: "Master, we can't find a place to enter."

Huo looked at the sky and said, "Why don't we come back tomorrow?"

It was getting dark now, and the mountain was not in good condition. To ensure his life, he thought it would be better for them to come back tomorrow.

After hearing this, Ning Yan still wanted to try harder, after all, he was already here.

He then asked Blind Huang, "Uncle Huang, do you have a solution?"

Blind Huang shook his head: "No, knowing the place already makes me worthy of the title of Huang Banxian."

After all, he is not a real immortal, he is just called a half-immortal, it is impossible for him to know everything.

Shang Chenyi said: "In that case, let's go back first. Why do I feel that the mountain has suddenly become cold?"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his arms. Although Shang Chenyi's body had recovered, his fear of cold remained. In the same weather, when others felt it was normal, he would feel a little cold.

The temperature at night is usually lower than that during the day, but with the temperature over 30 degrees, the temperature is not much lower. What's more, it is summer now, so the temperature is naturally higher.

But he did feel a hint of chill, and that feeling made him feel a little uncomfortable and eerie.

Seeing this, Ye Buli reached out and hugged the man to give him some warmth, and said to Ning Yan and the others, "Let's go back then?"

It won’t take long to find water.

Huo Xi and Ning Gang had no objection to this, so they mounted their horses and returned to their resting place.

Lying on the ground at night, Ning Yan was still thinking about what happened today.

He was wondering how water could appear there with such high mountains and steep cliffs.

If there's water, why is there no sign of it outside the mountain? The mountain doesn't even have an exit, and it seems there's no way to get in. Perhaps they're going around to the other side of the mountain?

However, there are many mountains here, and I don’t know if taking a detour will make the journey even longer.

Huo Yu lay beside him, turned over and hugged his waist. Noticing that he was still awake, he said, "Wife, what are you thinking about?"

"It's okay, go to sleep." Ning Yan turned sideways and said to him.

He just thought about it for a moment, but it wasn't to the point where he couldn't sleep. After saying something to Huo, he nestled in his arms and prepared to close his eyes and fall asleep.

Huo? bent down and kissed his forehead, then hugged him tighter.

The temperature suddenly dropped at night, waking everyone up from the cold.

Ning Jing, who was sleeping next to Ning Yan, squinted his eyes and shouted, "Dad, it's so cold."

As she spoke, she hid beside Ning Yan, wanting a hug to warm herself up.

On the other side, Huo Yun squinted his eyes, rolled over, and hid in Bai Lifen's arms until he felt warm, then he closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

Ning Jian turned over and held Ning Jing in his arms, while Huo? stood up and took out the quilts they had brought with them and distributed them to their family members.

Cloth? They had bought some before, and when they went to Xia Cang City to collect money, they also collected a lot of cloth. After all, Xia Cang City is famous in Donglin Country for its textiles and embroidery. The amount of cloth there is not comparable to other cities, so Ning Yan collected a lot of cloth into the space.

The quilts were all made with cotton from Ning Yan's space, and were made by Aunt Zhou and the others. Each person had a set of cotton clothes and a quilt, which was definitely enough to keep warm.

For the past three months, they relied on quilts, cotton clothes, and the coal they brought with them to keep warm. Although the weather was very cold at times, fortunately they had taken precautions in advance, so they arrived at Mangshan safely.
