Chapter 208 Escape from Death (Part II)
The cave is not very deep, it is estimated that it is less than a meter extending inside, through the reflection of the ice, Ye Tian can clearly see that the ferret that fought with the strange snake earlier has died inside, and the teeth of the strange snake are still biting its hind legs.
The teeth of the strange snake should be highly poisonous, because the ferret's originally silvery-white fur has turned black at this time, and it also emits a faint fishy smell.
In addition to the mink and snake who died together, there were two little guys who were a little smaller than the cubs in their pockets, but they had lost their mother's body temperature, and they had both frozen to death inside.
Maybe this little guy's body had to be stronger to finally survive, but if it hadn't met Ye Tian, I am afraid it would not have escaped the fate of death.
After glancing into the hole again, he was ready to slide down, but a little white luster in the hole made him stop moving.
"What is this? Snow Lotus?!"
Reaching out to push aside the sable snake's corpse, Ye Tian found that in the innermost part of the cave, there were actually two snow lotus flowers hidden.
Unlike the snow lotuses that Ye Tian saw when he was climbing, these two snow lotuses were the size of a palm, and the scattered petals were as crystal clear as jade, even the fishy smell emitted by the ferret's corpse could not hide the faint fragrance.
Ye Tian slammed his left hand at the cave, and his right hand reached out into the cave like lightning, taking out all three snow lotus flowers, turning his body over, his buttocks facing the ice wall, and sliding to the ground.
"This thing is a rare thing......"
After standing on the ground, Ye Tian looked at the snow lotus in his hand, he had heard Master say that the snow lotus petals over a hundred years old were thick and the juice was fleshy, while the snow lotus over a thousand years old was as white and flawless as jade.
From Lao Dao's description, Ye Tian could be sure that the age of these two snow lotuses was at least more than a thousand years, even if they were located in the Tianshan Mountains, snow lotuses of such a year were extremely rare.
"Chirp...... Chirp ......"
Just when Ye Tian was looking at the snow lotus in his hand, the cry of a ferret cub came from his chest, and the little guy stretched out his head and stared at the snow lotus in Ye Tian's palm.
"Do you want to eat this?" Listening to the call of the little mink, Ye Tian laughed, stretched out his hand to break off a snow lotus petal, and brought it to the young mink's mouth, and the little guy immediately opened his mouth and bit it.
I just don't know if the petals were too thick, or if the young mink's teeth had not yet grown, it couldn't bite, and it suddenly chirped again in a hurry.
"No wonder those two little guys froze to death, dare they not be able to bite this thing?"
After seeing the young mink's actions, Ye Tian understood in his heart that the snow lotus originally had the effect of replenishing qi and blood, and it was reasonable to say that guarding these two snow lotus, it was impossible for the young marten in the cave to starve to death, it seemed that the root cause was here.
Thinking of this, Ye Tian stretched out his hand and tore open the petals of the snow lotus over there, unlike ordinary snow lotus, this petal contained rich juice, and as soon as it was torn open, it flowed down Ye Tian's hand.
"Chirp!"
Smelling the fragrance of the juice, the little guy actually got out of Ye Tian's pocket, and the four little paws hugged one of Ye Tian's fingers, sucked it up on it, and after eating all the juice into his stomach, he licked Ye Tian's finger with his tongue unsatisfied.
"Eat it all!"
Seeing the little guy's naïve appearance, Ye Tian's depression from being trapped in this icy land was also reduced a little, and he brought the petal to the little mink's mouth, and after the juice was sucked up, Ye Tian tore up the mesophyll and fed it to the little guy.
After eating and drinking, the little thing began to feel sleepy, stretched out its front paws to grab Ye Tian's clothes and was about to climb up, as if he had regarded Ye Tian's pocket as his new home.
"Hehe, go to sleep......"
Ye Tian gently grabbed the young mink and put it back in his pocket, and the little thing stretched out its tongue and licked Ye Tian's fingers, as if expressing its gratitude.
"With this thing, I'm not afraid of freezing to death......" After settling the young mink, Ye Tian set his sights on the three snow lotuses.
The old Taoist once said that the old snow lotus can drive away cold and avoid yin, aphrodisiac and replenish blood, and it is also very good for his injuries.
From noon to now, Ye Tian hasn't eaten for more than ten hours, smelling the faint fragrance, Ye Tian couldn't help but move his index finger, reached out and tore off a leaf, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
"Damn, it's so hard?!"
I originally thought that the fragrant snow lotus should taste extremely sweet, but as soon as the taste buds on his tongue came into contact with the juice, Ye Tian immediately frowned, accelerated the speed of chewing, and swallowed the leaves in his stomach.
"I don't feel it, is this thing a thousand-year-old snow lotus?" After eating a leaf, Ye Tian felt that there was nothing abnormal in his lower body.
"Forget it, just think of it as filling your stomach!" Listening to the "cooing" sound coming from his stomach, Ye Tian didn't care about the bitterness, so he tore off all the leaves of a snow lotus flower and stuffed it into his mouth.
After eating one snow lotus, Ye Tian's eyes looked at the other one, although this thing was not small, but it was juicy, and the hunger in his stomach did not get much relief.
After thinking for a while, Ye Tian tore off two leaves, stuffed the rest into his mouth, and swallowed it like a cow chewing a peony.
"Huh? It seems to be working!"
Just after the second snow lotus flower was eaten, Ye Tian suddenly felt that his lower abdomen became hot, and his vitality after years of cultivation was also a little restless.
With the operation of Ye Tian's technique, the hot gas in the lower abdomen rushed towards the bones all over the body, and wherever it passed, the yin and cold in the body's meridians were all expelled.
Ye Tian changed his life for the old Taoist back then, suffered from the backlash of heaven and earth, and a lot of evil energy penetrated into his meridians and hid down, destroying his physical functions.
However, at this time, the heat formed by the snow lotus was like a torrent of meridians pulsating through various places, not only clearing out all those yin evil qi, but also opening up the blocked meridians in his body one by one, which was equivalent to washing the marrow of Ye Tianmao.
The heat formed by the snow lotus wandered in his body, and the cold air around him had no effect on him, and Ye Tian didn't know how long time had passed, but he was finally awakened by the young mink's "chirping" cry.
Ye Tian, who woke up from meditation, was in a good mood, he could feel that the injuries in his body seemed to be almost recovering, and the blocked meridians running towards the yen qi could now pass smoothly, and there seemed to be an endless burst of strength in his body.
"Good girl, it's been sixteen hours?"
It was already bright overhead, Ye Tian looked at his watch and found that it was the afternoon of the next day, but before he knew it, more than ten hours had passed.
"Little guy, are you hungry?" Looking at the young mink sticking its furry little head out of his pocket, Ye Tian laughed, took out the remaining snow lotus petals, tore them up and fed them to the little guy.
"You guy is a foodie?!"
It may be that the effect of the snow lotus is too much, the little guy dizzy and drowsy as soon as he finished eating, which made Ye Tian, who originally wanted to tease the little thing, a little depressed, and had no choice but to put it back in his pocket.
"Let's see if we can climb up!"
Although he felt that someone should go up the mountain to search and rescue, instead of waiting for others to come, it was better to save himself first.
"Click...... Click!" Just as Ye Tian was about to carve into the ice wall with Wu Trace, the sound of stepping on snow suddenly came from above his head, and Ye Tian suddenly became ecstatic.
"Is there anyone up there? I'm down there, is there anyone? Help me!"
Having seen the power of the avalanche, Ye Tian did not dare to shout loudly, and called out in a low voice, while reversing without a trace, hitting the ice rock with the hilt of the dagger.
——
"This ...... Is the damage caused by this avalanche so great?"
Dozens of meters above Ye Tian's head, a group of six people were standing in the ice tower area, looking at the ice wall directly opposite with a horrified expression, they didn't know why this avalanche caused the ice wall to break.
The ice wall, which was as smooth as a mirror, seemed to have been split by an axe from the middle at this moment, revealing a deep crack.
The ice tower area, which was not originally involved in the avalanche, seemed to have been washed away by the flood, and even many icicles that had existed for tens of millions of years were completely broken.
However, in this way, Ye Tian saved a lot of trouble, because the bodies of Di Wang and the others had already been washed down and buried in the snow dozens of meters deep.
"Alimu, revoking your mountaineering instructor certificate is really cheap for you!" The leader of the search and rescue team was reprimanding a member of the team, and that person was Ye Tian's mountaineering coach.
After Ye Tian went up the mountain privately, Alimu did not report to the top immediately in order to shirk responsibility, but when the avalanche occurred, he did not dare to hide the matter and immediately reported it to the management area.
After receiving Alimu's report, two search and rescue teams were immediately organized to go up the mountain overnight, and this one was the first to arrive at the ice tower area.
"Lao Wu, I seem to hear someone shouting, is there anyone who survived?" Ye Tian's shout attracted the attention of one person in the team.
"Impossible, right? Can anyone survive?" The middle-aged man named Lao Wu shook his head repeatedly, but then his ears also perked up, and he also heard the sound of Ye Tian hitting the ice rock.
"Quick, find where the sound came from? Pay attention to those ice cracks, the survivors are likely to hide below!"
Lao Wu is the leader of this search and rescue team, and he is very experienced.
