Chapter 551: Purpose

The back mountain of Chihong Sect in Chuchen was shrouded in a thick cloud. The heavy snow in the sky had been falling for eight days, and there was no intention of stopping.

The empty back mountain has been covered with thick white snow, forming a vast snow field. The strong wind whistled past, blowing the snow on the ground, and blowing the snowflakes falling from the sky, drifting further away.

It is frozen for thousands of miles, nothing more than that.

The entire Qitian Empire is shrouded in the vast snowfield, and a frozen doomsday scene has begun to appear.

Three figures, on the vast snowy field, reflected the bitter cold wind.

The man in front was wearing a thick cloak, his head and face wrapped around his clothes, and he seemed to be holding something in his arms, staggering. The collar surrounding him had been wet with heavy snow, forming a thick frost, hanging on the collar.

Behind them, the two of them walked side by side, their clothes were very heavy, staring at the cold wind and grinning.

The one who walked in front was Qi Zhengye. He was very anxious, and in his arms was Duo'er who was already in high fever. After Huang Yuchen and Liu Xing'an followed Qi Zhengye, they didn't know where Qi Zhengye got the strength. They hugged Duo'er and wore such heavy clothes. They didn't even look at what kind of fighting spirit he used to walk so quickly.

Since they came out of the alchemy hall, they have been moving forward in the snow in the back mountain for more than an hour. The sky is still hazy, and the strong wind sways the falling snow, making everything unreal.

They could only distinguish the direction based on their own memory. The alchemy hall was on the top of the mountain, and the town was at the foot of the mountain. When they arrived at the town, they could immediately find someone to treat Duoer.

The heavy snow made the speed of several people very slow. The three of them trekked up the mountain last night. They had just arrived at the top of the mountain and turned back immediately after finding Duoer, without any rest time. But even so, their footprints on the mountain were covered with wind and snow, and there was no trace.

I don’t know what other disciples of Chihong Sect are doing now. Since Huang Yuchen went down the mountain and passed through this snow field three times, he did not see a disciple of Chihong Sect. He could only see smoke-filled houses in the small town, and it seemed that someone lived in it.

"Even if we get to the town, we may not be able to find someone to treat Duoer." Huang Yuchen yelled at Liu Xingan beside him, "Senior brother, can you treat him?"

"No!" Liu Xing'an turned his head and replied, immediately covered by the wind and snow. He took a breath and then shouted loudly again: "But I have read the relevant classics. If it is just an ordinary fever, it should not be difficult to treat."

"Where did you look for Lin Yiyi last time?" Huang Yuchen shouted immediately: "When you arrive in the town, you want to find her. She has a wide connection with Chihong Sect and should be able to find someone to help us."

"Okay, let's talk about it later." Liu Xingan recovered loudly, then pulled the collar of his face and stopped talking.

Qi Zhengye kept walking in front. He held Duo'er in his arms and wrapped her entire body with a cloak, so that the wind and snow would blow her at all. Now it seemed that Duo'er was asleep in his arms, very quiet, just a little blushing, not an ordinary person's color.

Qi Zhengye was a little anxious and quickened his pace again. Seeing this, Huang Yuchen and Liu Xingan hurriedly followed.

The wind and snow were mixed, and the vision was unclear. Fortunately, an hour later, I finally saw the outline of the town in the distance. Fortunately, the roads nearby were not difficult to walk, and there were no mountains and forests. Otherwise, if the three of them got lost, let alone saving Duoer, they all might be in danger.

Even though all three of them have cultivation, they are all among the best among their peers, and they are still vulnerable in the face of such natural disasters.

After another half an hour, the three of them finally staggered to approach the small house left by Xiao Yibo for them. Liu Xing'an quickly stepped forward and opened the door. Qi Zhengye got in as soon as possible.

After a night, the fire in the house was no longer strong and it was very interesting to extinguish it. But the temperature inside the house was still much higher than that outside. Liu Xingan also said before that Xiao Yibao used any method to see this house. Without a special method, it was impossible to see it. The fact that Duoer appeared in the alchemy hall was very bizarre, and the possibility of being assassinated was not ruled out. Now this place has become the best choice.

Qi Zhengye immediately placed Duoer on the bed and covered him with the quilt. He took off the cloak that had been completely covered with snow and placed it on the shelf beside him to bake.

Huang Yuchen glanced at Qi Zhengye, then turned to look at Liu Xing'an. Liu Xing'an immediately nodded and turned away. He knew how to contact Lin Yiyi and found Lin Yiyi, and could find helpers. In this strange place, the only thing Huang Yuchen could think of was Lin Yiyi.

Turning back and closing the door, Huang Yuchen took off his heavy clothes and put them aside, walked to the bed, reached out to touch Duoer's forehead, and it was hot. He immediately went to the side, took a towel and wet it, and placed it on Duoer's forehead to cool her down.

Qi Zhengye was obviously exhausted and sat on the chair beside him, looking at Duoer who was sleeping on the bed, panting.

"I don't know what happened to her. You said how this little girl appeared so far away alone." Qi Zhengye looked at Huang Yuchen and asked.

"She has the ability of a warrior, so don't treat her as an ordinary little girl." Huang Yuchen glanced at Qi Zhengye, then turned around and said, "Senior Brother Qi, I see you are very nervous. I have never seen you so anxious. What's wrong?"

To be honest, Qi Zhengye's performance today was indeed beyond Huang Yuchen's expectations. He was also nervous, but he had not reached this point yet.

Qi Zhengye didn't say anything, grinned at Huang Yuchen and continued to breathe heavily.

Seeing that Qi Zhengye did not answer, Huang Yuchen turned to make the fire. After a while, the fire reignited and the temperature in the house gradually increased.

"You asked your senior brother to find Lin Yiyi?" After a while, Qi Zhengye asked.

"Well." Huang Yuchen nodded: "I don't know who to ask for help except her. If only the three of us were there, I would never look for her now. But now Duo'er's condition is not good. Since the person has been saved, I will save it to the end."

After hearing this, Qi Zhengye looked at Duo'er who was still asleep and said softly: "I don't know what she has experienced."

"It must not be a good thing." Huang Yuchen said: "When I went down the mountain, his father Jiying was on the mountain, watching the hall be in a daze. When we go up again, the alchemy furnace was empty, and only Duoer was there. No matter how you think about this, it has nothing to do with Jiying, but you don't know where he is now and why he left his daughter there alone."

"When Jiying went to find you, didn't he bring Duo'er with you?" Qi Zhengye suddenly asked.

"No." Huang Yuchen shook his head: "Helian Fu appeared behind him and said some inexplicable words to Jiying. It seems that there is some connection between the alchemy furnace and Jiying."

"He didn't take Duo'er at that time, so he would definitely not take him with him." Qi Zhengye frowned and said, "In other words, Duo'er may have been taken up the mountain by someone else."

Huang Yuchen didn't think deeply about this matter at all. After Qi Zhengye said this, he immediately thought of it.

Yes, Jiying went up the mountain alone to find him and helped him get out of trouble. He didn't take his daughter at that time. Why did his daughter later go on the mountain? There is only one explanation, that is, someone else took Duoer up the mountain. In other words, Duoer appeared in the alchemy room and Jiying's appearance was unknown, and it was very likely that it was done by others.

Thinking of this, Huang Yuchen suddenly realized that he seemed to have been exploited by someone else without knowing it. He tricked Jiying up the mountain, and he definitely had other purposes. All of this was done by the Chihong Sect behind the scenes.

Huang Yuchen's mood immediately became bad. He looked at Qi Zhengye and whispered: "If this is the case, then I can't get rid of anything happening to Jiying."

This feeling of being completely used is very bad. Huang Yuchen frowned and looked at Duoer lying on the bed, feeling irritated.

He was led away by someone again, and this time it was even more thorough. If he hadn't seen Duo'er on the mountain, he might not have known what had happened until now.

"This is probably related to the fact that Chihong Sect insists on letting you go up the mountain." Qi Zhengye looked at Huang Yuchen and said, "They should be asking Jiying to do something he didn't want to do. You are just an introduction to this matter. Or, from the beginning, the Chihong Sect's goal was not you at all. They made you into Chihong Sect with great fanfare, and the purpose was not what you thought."

Huang Yuchen didn't say anything, but just stood aside, frowning.

At first, he really thought that Chihong Sect asked him to go up the mountain to do something, or what secrets he had, were that Chihong Sect must know and obtain. Especially the emergence of his two meridians and different attributes of Dou Qi further deepened his idea. From the time he went to Chihong Sect, Huang Yuchen felt that these senior officials of Chihong Sect had long known about the two Dou Qi things he had on him, and were not too surprised by this matter.

Moreover, I made seven-day crystal stones in the alchemy hall, and nothing happened during this period. I felt like I was left by the Chihong Sect. Their purpose was to let me go up the mountain, but there was no other special action.

Is all this really as Qi Zhengye said, Chihong Sect is just to get himself up the mountain. Is the root and secret of all this nothing to do with him?

Just as Huang Yuchen was thinking hard, the door opened lightly. Huang Yuchen looked up and saw Liu Xing'an pushing the door in. Behind him was a woman wearing a thick cloak, covering her face with a light gauze. It was Lin Yiyi.

When he entered the room with Liu Xing'an, Lin Yiyi shook Luo Xue on her body gently, looked at Huang Yuchen, and did not say anything, but walked straight to the bed, reached out to touch Duoer's cheek.

Feeling the heat coming from his hands, Lin Yiyi frowned slightly, looked at Qi Zhengye beside her, and asked softly: "What's going on?"

"I don't know." Qi Zhengye shook his head and said, "When we arrived at the alchemy room, we saw Duo'er lying in the hall. He had a fever at that time, so I immediately carried her down. We didn't understand medical principles, so we asked my senior brother to find you."

Lin Yiyi did not speak, but took Duoer's little hand out of the quilt, pressed her fingers against her wrist, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

After a while, Lin Yiyi let out a light breath, put Duoer's hand back, and whispered: "It's nothing big, I just suffered from the cold. She was unconscious in advance, without the active protection of Dou Qi. She blew the wind all night in an open place, and then she would have a fever. When she woke up, she could activate Dou Qi freely, these things were not a problem."

After saying that, Lin Yiyi untied the cloak on her body, put it aside, walked to the stove and sat down. During the process, she didn't even look at Huang Yuchen.
