The snow under their feet was very soft, and they sank halfway into it. Lu Yue and Huo Jiakai were struggling to walk, far less than the four-legged snow leopard.
The snow leopard walked in front of Lu Yue and extended its tail to her. Lu Yue grabbed the snow leopard's tail and walked more easily. Huo Jiakai accidentally grabbed the snow leopard's tail. The snow leopard raised its tail high and shook off Huo Jiakai's hand. It looked back at him with dissatisfaction.
Embarrassed, Huo Jiakai used all his strength and walked to the front. He and the two little boys, Snow Leopard and Elephant, were angry.
After making a big turn, he walked up the mountainside and saw the entrance of the cave. The entrance was not very big, revealing the black rocks of the mountain. Below the entrance was a pile of snow and ice. It turned out that this cave entrance had always been sealed by ice. This time, it was only exposed after encountering a large avalanche.
The two of them and the snow leopard stepped on the broken ice and slowly approached the entrance of the cave. The entrance of the cave was in the shape of an inverted U. When they got closer, they found traces of carvings on the mountain. The entrance of the cave was surrounded by embossed of flying eagles and horses. It was unknown how many years had passed, but its form was still vivid.
The two of them carefully walked into the cave. The cave was much wider than the entrance. The top of the cave was very high, and they couldn't see how deep it was. Everyone was tired. After a rough inspection, they found a safe place to rest. Huo Jiakai wanted to hug Lu Yue to sleep, or at least hold her hand, but the snow leopard squeezed in between them and insisted on separating them.
The two people and the leopard quickly fell into a deep sleep. After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, the snow leopard turned around alertly, and the two of them woke up with a start. The moonlight had already passed through the entrance of the cave. A sharp whistling sound came from the depths of the cave, followed by a whooshing sound. The sound reverberated in the cave, causing their scalps to go numb. The snow leopard was also terrified.
The two of them looked at each other. They did not know what had happened. Suddenly, a black shadow pounced out from the darkness. It was another black shadow. Only then did the two of them know that it was a huge eagle that they had never seen before. The two of them had never seen such a large eagle. Its golden eyes emitted a fierce light, and its huge and sharp yellow beak made people shudder.
Its brown feathers stood upright, and it was very alert. When it spread its wings, it was more than three meters long. The cave was originally very large, but with the two eagles circling inside, it seemed narrow. The eagle's claws were like black iron hooks, hard, sharp, and thick. If he was caught, he would lose his life.
Huo Jiakai let Lu Yue stay by his side, but this evil eagle pounced on him again and again, bringing with it a wind that made his face hurt. Huo Jiakai calculated the time and prepared to send out the silver needles. It was too dangerous and he was almost hooked by the iron claws several times.
Facing this giant eagle, the snow leopard was powerless. Just as the silver needle was about to be shot out, a stumbling young eagle also came out. The feathers on its body had not fully grown, so it could not fly. It could only hover a meter high.
Seeing that the young condor had come out, the two big condors became even more anxious, and their attacks became even more fierce.
The young condor did not understand what was going on and even moved closer to the snow leopard. The snow leopard pounced on the young condor, and the two big condors rushed over and landed in front of the snow leopard. Their four round golden eyes were angry and worried.
Lu Yue felt a warm air flow out of the red crystal stone and spread in the direction of the young condor. The young condor walked towards Lu Yue. She realized that the young condor's leg bone might have been broken.
The baby eagle kept chirping. The condor was obviously stunned. The viciousness in its eyes gradually disappeared, but it was still vigilant. When the baby condor came in front of Lu Yue and pecked her hand with its beak, it made a series of sounds. Lu Yue smiled strangely, and the big condor was also puzzled because the baby condor called her mother.
"Call me sister." Lu Yue corrected him.
"Mommy." The young condor insisted. Perhaps she was an only child and did not have the concept of an elder sister.
The baby condor felt extremely comfortable after receiving the airflow from the red crystal stone. Its injured leg no longer hurt. The baby condor was no different from a child. It happily told its parents.
The eyes of the two condors finally became warm and happy. Huo Jiakai carefully put away the silver needles. In order to protect Lu Yue, he could even kill people without batting an eye. He did not have any psychological burden. However, after being with Lu Yue for a long time, he had become less hostile.
Lu Yue used her arms to lift the young condors. The two large condors slowly flew into the depths of the cave, as if they were inviting them to visit. They walked into a wide passageway. At the end of the passage was a huge ice cave. The sun had already risen outside, and wisps of sunlight seeped into the cave.
The ice cave was illuminated by a few rays of sunlight, making it look like a dream. Nature was omnipotent, once again showing its magical creation. The ice cave was a majestic ice palace, just like the palace of Princess Frozen.
Thick ice bamboo shoots, crystal clear ice flowers, an ice bridge that allowed people to walk on, and a hot spring that was emitting steam under the ice bridge. The ice walls around them shone with a faint blue light, and there were patterns that even the most talented artist would admire.
The two of them forgot about time and felt that nothing in the world could shock them.
"Look, there's a hole in the middle.”Lu Yue pulled Huo Jiakai into the cave. When the two of them saw the scene in the cave, they were shocked.
There were many people in the cave. Some were sitting, some were standing, but no matter what posture they were in, it was obvious that they were cultivating. They were all making Buddhist hand seals, smiling mysteriously and peacefully. They were all wearing monk robes whose color could not be seen clearly, and they maintained a posture without moving.
Lu Yue was too curious and wanted to ask.
Kyla from the Huo family stopped her and said,"They're all people who died a long time ago."”
Lu Yue couldn't believe it. She checked carefully and finally believed what Huo Jiakai said. These people were all dead.
"How can you tell that they are dead?”Lu Yue asked.
Huo Jiakai replied," There are so many people. How can the smell of the dead and the living be the same? You've seen too few dead people. Besides, you trust your eyes too much, while I trust my feelings more.”
Lu Yue said," How could so many people die together? Moreover, they still retained their appearances when they died. Even their postures did not change. It's too bizarre."
Huo Jiakai said," If you still remember what Master Lhoba said, it wouldn't be so strange. They had passed away and become Bodhisattvas in the flesh. Everyone here could be an amazing master.”
Lu Yue thought for a moment and said,"It must have something to do with this place." Do you think the place where these people can turn into Bodhisattvas is a blessed land or…"
Huo Jiakai understood what Lu Yue meant. He shook his head, indicating that he did not understand either.
At this moment, the two condors at the entrance of the cave walked in and looked up at the ceiling. The two of them also looked at the top of the cave. Other than the ice wall that was shining with a faint blue light, there was nothing else to be seen.
When his neck was about to break, he suddenly saw a different light shining on the empty ice wall. A small flower bud that grew out of the ice began to slowly bloom. It was pure white and emitted an intoxicating fragrance.
The two condors looked at Lu Yue. Lu Yue immediately understood that the condor had told her that this was an Ice Snow Lotus. The Ice Snow Lotus that had always been in legends had really appeared in a cave that had been frozen for ten thousand years. If it wasn't for this avalanche, he wouldn't have been able to see her now.
Lu Yue suddenly thought of something. This cave was covered in ice for tens of thousands of years. When did the people in this cave enter? Could it be tens of thousands of years?
Could it be that the people of the Zhangzhung Kingdom had migrated here in search of some mysterious power as recorded in her mother's notebook? Did they find it or not? Did the Bodhisattva achieve their wish?
Lu Yue was deep in thought. The condor anxiously urged her, and only then did Lu Yue know that the condor wanted her to eat the Frost Lotus.
The ice lotus bloomed at the top of the cave and grew directly from the ice wall. It had no roots or leaves. The ceiling of the cave was very high, and it was surrounded by smooth ice walls. The condor seemed to have suddenly realized that this very capable person could not fly. It flew up with a whoosh, picked up the ice lotus, and gave it to Lu Yue.
Lu Yue took it. She knew that this was a very precious divine item, but she still handed it to Huo Jiakai without hesitation. Huo Jiakai did not understand the eagle's words, so he was stunned and did not move.
Lu Yue said," Eat it. It's an Ice Snow Lotus. It'll be good for you.”
The condor was unhappy and clearly showed its dissatisfaction.
Lu Yue told the condor," I've eaten the King of Venomous Worms raised by the Seven-Colored Flower. It would be a waste to eat more Ice Snow Lotuses."
Huo Jiakai had seen the changes in Lu Yue's constitution, so he did not stand on ceremony and ate the ancient treasure, the Ice Snow Lotus, like a cow chewing on a peony.
