Chapter 752


752 Chapter 749-taking in and crossing the snow Mountain


When the little monster saw this, it immediately pounced on the smoked meat. After its two front claws clenched tightly, it took a fierce bite.


“Eat slowly, don’t choke!”


The female alien saw that the little monster was choking on the smoked meat and rolled her eyes. She wanted to help. She also liked this harmless-looking little monster.


Seeing that someone was approaching, the little monster thought that the other party was trying to s.n.a.t.c.h the food. It immediately let out a low growl from its throat and glared at the foreign woman. The warning in its eyes was obvious.


Seeing this, the woman stopped in her tracks. However, she continued to watch the little monster eat.


Perhaps it was because it was too hungry, the little monster swallowed the head-sized piece of smoked meat in a few bites!


It licked its mouth and raised its head to look at Tang Zhen. Then, it sat on the ground and emitted a “Wu Wu” sound from its throat.


Looking at its appearance, it definitely wasn’t full and still wanted Tang Zhen to give it another piece.


The young swordsman who had been silent at the side suddenly walked over and said to Tang Zhen, this little monster shouldn’t be the offspring of an ordinary monster. Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to have intelligence at such a young age. It might be the offspring of the king-tier monster here!


Tang Zhen nodded. He had already thought of this earlier.


When the young swordsman saw that Tang Zhen seemed to have guessed the origin of the little monster, he continued,”From the looks of it, it seems that it hasn’t eaten for many days. This is obviously an extremely abnormal situation, or even impossible.


In addition, the king-cla.s.s monster had a fierce battle with the cultivator team some time ago, so I guess that the king-cla.s.s monster should be dead. Otherwise, no matter how seriously injured it was, it couldn’t ignore its Cub!”


Tang Zhen once again nodded and softly said,”So, in order to not let this little guy starve to death, I’ll take him away!”


As soon as he finished speaking, a Green Chain appeared out of thin air and directly locked the little monster who was sitting on the ground and praying.


The little monster immediately became fl.u.s.tered when its neck was suddenly tied. It wanted to struggle and escape, but it was pulled by Tang Zhen.


When the people around saw this, they looked at each other and quickly followed.


The little monster that was tied up by Tang Zhen was still struggling desperately at first. Its b.u.t.t dragged the ground and its head leaned back, but it refused to follow Tang Zhen.


However, it suddenly became obedient after walking for a while. It no longer resisted Tang Zhen’s pull.


As it turned out, it discovered that it would find a fragrant piece of meat on the ground every hundred meters or so while following behind Tang Zhen.


After eating only two pieces of meat, this little monster began to look forward to the next piece of meat. It obediently followed behind Tang Zhen and even subconsciously walked a few steps faster, hoping to eat the next piece of meat quickly!


Tang Zhen laughed out loud when he saw this. He began to play with the little monster as he walked, no longer feeling bored.


In the next few days of their journey, although they encountered many monster attacks, they were all easily killed by Tang Zhen. There were no casualties.


Before they knew it, they had already climbed to the peak of the dangerous mountain range and entered the high and cold region that was covered in ice and snow all year round.


Here, a drop of water would turn into ice, and the cold wind would never stop blowing, so it was all white.


At this moment, Tang Zhen and the rest had already put on thick leather jackets and specially made snow shoes to prevent them from falling into the bottomless snow while walking.


They had smeared some kind of monster Oil on their skin, which could effectively prevent frostbite.


In addition to ensuring that he would not get frostbite, he also had to be wary of a kind of snow Phantom that moved in the ice and snow. Their bodies were translucent, like venomous snakes with tentacles, and they could freely shuttle through the ice and snow.


Once bitten by such a monster, one would be injured by the cold poison it released, and their blood would instantly freeze into ice!


Along the way, Tang Zhen had already killed no less than ten snow phantoms. The largest one was fifteen meters long and the cold poison in its body was extremely powerful.


Walking in this world of Ice and snow was really a torturous thing. Even if everyone was a cultivator with extraordinary strength, they could only bitterly Trek in the cold wind.


Along the way, he could occasionally see the frozen remains of cultivators. Their skin was greenish-purple and they looked extremely ferocious.


Under the thick layer of snow, there were even more remains of cultivators that were sealed in ice forever!


After walking for a day, the group finally arrived at the resting place before nightfall. It was a hidden ice cave against the wind and sun!


The entrance of the ice cave was narrow, but the inside was very s.p.a.cious. With the light of the fire, the surroundings were filled with clear blue ice that had not melted since the ancient times.


After putting down the little monster in his arms and letting it run around, Tang Zhen took out a furnace from the storage s.p.a.ce and poured in a special fuel to light it up.


At the same time, a pot was also set up, and a few pieces of ice were placed in it to boil. Soon, it was a pot of hot water.


The rest of the team did not stay idle either. Some used ice to seal the cave entrance, while others dealt with the wild beasts they had caught on the way, preparing to throw them into the pot for a stew later.


After getting along for a few days, everyone realized that Tang Zhen did not seem to be as terrifying as they had imagined. On the contrary, he was very approachable.


As time went by, everyone dared to chat with him and were no longer as restrained as they were at the beginning.


Even the “hidden expert” of the group of cultivators had put down the worry in his heart. He would even chat with Tang Zhen from time to time when he was resting.


Of course, everyone’s respect for Tang Zhen did not decrease in the slightest. On the contrary, it had increased a little.


At this time, a stowaway had already dealt with the two snow chickens he caught along the way. He rubbed them with white snow and then walked over to Tang Zhen.


Tang Zhen saw that he had dealt with it quite cleanly and got the foreign woman to chop it into pieces. He then took out the ingredients, poured oil into the wok, and stir-fried the snow chicken meat a few times. After that, he added some soup and began to stew it.


Everyone was already used to this scene.


The storage equipment that was priceless outside was actually used by Tang Zhen to store oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar. It was really a waste of a heavenly treasure.


However, as much as they were jealous, they were also envious. After all, they could eat delicious food with good colors and fragrances wherever they went!


While waiting, everyone gathered around the fire and began to chat. Although it was not to the extent of revealing their respective origins, they were no longer as distant as they were at the beginning.


Tang Zhen also took the opportunity to ask some questions. Although most of the time there was no result, from time to time there would be stowaways who would give ambiguous answers.


It didn’t take long for the rich fragrance of the snow chicken to fill the air. The little monsters at the side were already circling around the iron pot, looking impatient.


Tang Zhen opened the pot and had everyone bring their utensils. Then, he placed spoonfuls of snow chicken meat and thick soup into their own bowls.


Immediately after, Tang Zhen took out a bottle of wine. He poured a cup for everyone and drank it to expel the cold.


After picking out the chicken head and chicken legs and placing them in front of the little monster, Tang Zhen also scooped a bowl for himself and ate it deliciously.


Strictly speaking, this snow chicken was not a monster. In fact, it was an extremely precious tonic. Except for the Snowy Mountains in the dangerous mountain range, it could not be found anywhere else.


According to the guide, every time they pa.s.sed through the snow Mountain in the past, cultivators would try their best to catch snow chickens and then boil them into soup to eat.


Firstly, this snow chicken was indeed incomparably fresh and delicious, and one would never forget it after drinking it once.


Secondly, it was because of its nourishing effect. No matter how weak a person was, as long as they had a bowl of snow chicken soup, it was guaranteed that they would be full of energy the next day!


It could even be said that not drinking the snow chicken soup was equivalent to a wasted trip to the dangerous mountain range!
