Chapter 828 - 828 Heading to the Snowy Kingdom
828 Heading to the Snowy Kingdom
Jiang Ming nodded and took Xia Chenjing to a place where the coachman was.
The coachman was taking care of the carriage. When he saw Jiang Ming and Xia Chenjing, he said enthusiastically, “Are you going to take a carriage? One tael of silver will do.”
Jiang Ming immediately gave the coachman a tael and told him the location.
However, the coachman was terrified and uneasy. Then, he said with a troubled expression, “Milords, I’m afraid I can’t take you there. There’s no way to get to the Snowy Mountain. We can only go to the edge of the Snowy Kingdom. The residents of the Snowy Kingdom are tough. I don’t want to lose my life. I’m just a small businessman.”
Seeing the coachman speak like this, Jiang Ming was stunned for a moment. He turned to comfort the coachman and said, “Don’t worry, we won’t make things difficult for you. Just take us to the gate of the Snowy Kingdom.”
Hearing Jiang Ming’s words, the coachman immediately became happy and said, “Then I’ll go prepare the carriage.”
Then, he pulled a carriage to Jiang Ming’s side. Jiang Ming and Xia Chenjing got on the carriage.
Xia Chenjing took the opportunity to ask the coachman, “Sir, have you seen the residents of the Snowy Kingdom? Why do you think they’re so wicked?”
The coachman replied while driving the carriage, “Milords, we haven’t seen the residents of the Snowy Kingdom, but they are known for their cruelty, so no one dares to go to the Snowy Kingdom.”
“Since none of you have seen the residents of the Snowy Kingdom, do you think it’s all nonsense?”
Xia Chenjing asked again, his eyes filled with confusion.
However, the coachman looked terrified and said to Xia Chenjing, “Sir, we had a resident who once died in the Snowy Kingdom. He was beaten half to death by the residents of the Snowy Kingdom. I don’t know how long the two of you have been in the Stone Mud Kingdom, but you should know that the residents of the Stone Mud Kingdom are warm and hospitable, kind and honest. If he hadn’t been beaten up like that, I would never have said anything about the residents of the Snowy Kingdom. They are really not to be trifled with. And we all saw the miserable state of our fellow resident. He died before he was thirty years old. The residents of the Stone Mud Kingdom took this as a warning and would never cross the border of the Snowy Kingdom. When you two go to the Snowy Kingdom, you should be as careful as possible.”
“I understand.”
Jiang Ming realized the gravity of the situation and then said seriously, “Did the injured resident say anything else? Did they describe the situation in the Snowy Kingdom?”
The coachman tried hard to recall and then told Jiang Ming, “It is said that one should not look into the eyes of the residents. If one looks into the eyes of the residents, the person who looks at them will immediately turn into ice. However, I heard that the ice is time sensitive. After two hours, the ice will thaw. But by then, the person will have already frozen to death.”
At this point, the coachman could not help but sigh. He then said, “I wonder how many more people have frozen to death. The residents of the Snowy Kingdom are cruel. We don’t know how many people have been killed. It’s better not to go.”
Hearing this, Jiang Ming fell silent for a moment, and Xia Chenjing could not help but frown.
They had to cover their eyes.
Otherwise, if they met a resident of the Snowy Kingdom, wouldn’t they be frozen?
It would take two hours to thaw out of the ice. By then, their bodies would not be able to withstand it.
Jiang Ming turned to Xia Chenjing as if nothing had happened. “It’s just a matter of closing my eyes and using my spiritual energy. I can sense the location of the residents of the Snowy Kingdom in advance, and I think I can take them down. ”
He was worried too, but it would be bad if both of them were consumed by worry.
The coachman was very fast, and he immediately arrived at the border of the Snowy Kingdom.
The coachman said to Jiang Ming and Xia Chenjing, “Milords, you can get off now. Please be careful and don’t let anything happen. It’s not worth it.”
“Thank you very much. It’s all thanks to you for explaining to us along the way. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been prepared.”
Jiang Ming gave the coachman more silver.
The coachman was overjoyed and left in the carriage.
The moment he turned to leave, he said to Jiang Ming, “If you need anything, come and find me. Good luck!”
Then, before Jiang Ming and Xia Chenjing could reply, he left.
In his opinion, it was risky to come to the border of the Snowy Kingdom, and he could not stay here any longer.
If he was targeted by the residents of the Snowy Kingdom, he would lose more than he gained.
At this moment, a cloud of smoke shrouded Jiang Ming and Xia Chenjing.
Jiang Ming realized that the smoke came with ill intentions, so he waved his fan and sent the smoke back.
The smoke dissipated, and the scene in front of them shocked Jiang Ming and Xia Chenjing.
The two of them had never thought that the border would be so obvious.
The Snowy Kingdom was covered in ice and snow, while their side was rich and lush.
Xia Chenjing could not help but feel afraid. He looked at Jiang Ming and said, “Are we still going in? I kept feeling an indescribable sense of conflict. I didn’t realize how strange this was.”
Jiang Ming felt Xia Chenjing’s fear and said to Xia Chenjing, “If you’re unwilling, I won’t force you. I’ll go in alone.”
Xia Chenjing felt that his self-esteem had been insulted and immediately said, “What’s there to be afraid of? I’m just a little worried.”
Then, ignoring Jiang Ming’s words, he walked straight into the Snowy Kingdom.
Seeing Xia Chenjing like this, Jiang Ming did not say anything and followed him to the Snowy Kingdom.
As soon as they stepped into the Snowy Kingdom, they felt the bone-piercing cold. Jiang Ming had some tricks up his sleeve to keep himself warm.
He used his spiritual energy to warm up his body.
But Xia Chenjing could not do it, and his body could not bear the cold.
As soon as it turned cold, he sneezed and curled up into a ball.
He had never encountered such a situation on the battlefield, nor had he fought with the residents of the Snowy Kingdom before. He was at a loss.
Seeing this, Jiang Ming simply took out a silver needle and directly blocked the acupuncture points on Xia Chenjing’s body to maintain the temperature in Xia Chenjing’s body.
Xia Chenjing suddenly felt much better. He smiled at Jiang Ming and said, “Thank you, Ning Caichen. Otherwise, I would have frozen to death here.”
“Protect yourself well.”
Jiang Ming did not say much. Then, he caught a glimpse of a resident of the Snowy Kingdom.
He had his back facing Jiang Ming and Xia Chenjing. He was about the height of a child and was wearing ordinary coa.r.s.e linen clothes.
