The Nautilus slowly landed at an S-bend in the middle of the spiritual canal.
Along the way, Qin Qianxue drove very carefully.
Because Holy Moon had a full-body fracture, the slightest bump would cause unbearable pain, so the Nautilus flew more steadily than ever before.
Although Qin Qianxue had done her best, Holy Moon was sweating profusely. He clenched his teeth and did not loosen them at all.
Holy Moon attracted the most firepower from the killer organization and suffered the most pain. That kind of pain was really bone-deep.
One of the strongest teammates was seriously injured, which showed how necessary Qin Qianxue's strategy of retreating was.
"Be careful."
Jameson Sauce reminded Qin Qianxue and Xue Feifei, who were carrying the stretcher.
For the first time in his life, Holy Moon, an ultimate master, enjoyed the treatment of a stretcher.
"Sweet Sauce, can that place still be used?" Xue Feifei was skeptical about the difficulty that Jameson Sauce mentioned.
After Qin Qianxue proposed the retreat strategy, Jameson Sauce immediately thought of a safe house that Yan Liu had built near the spiritual canal.
Yan Liu was the sect that paid the most attention to appearance. Not only did they pay attention to their own appearance, but they also paid attention to the appearance of their residence.
The safe house that Jameson Sauce thought of was built by Master Yan Liu, Yan Wushuang, during the construction of the spiritual canal by Yan Liu's sect. It was eventually named after Master Wushuang — Frostless Hut.
The biggest feature of the Frostless Hut was its concealment.
It was said that Master Wushuang's appearance was already more than 10,000, or even 100,000.
In any case, Master Wushuang's identity as a top master of Yan Liu at that time was undisputed.
Master Wushuang covered the Frostless Hut with many layers of concealment formations and connected it to the spiritual canal and the surrounding mountains.
It was like building a strong and secure password lock for the Frostless Hut.
The surrounding mountains contained the static password of the Frostless Hut, and the flowing spiritual canal protected the dynamic password of the Frostless Hut.
The Frostless Hut could only be opened with the combination of movement and silence and the two passwords being correct.
The dynamic password changed every day. Only by cracking the Yan Liu Array on the spiritual canal could one obtain the original information and calculation method and calculate the dynamic password of the day.
Therefore, dynamic passwords needed to be calculated in real time and had a time limit.
In addition, it was commendable that the dynamic password could be changed or even turned off within the Frostless Hut, completely preventing outsiders from entering.
If he wanted to destroy the Frostless Cottage by force, he would have to destroy all of the Yan Liu Great Formations, as well as remove all the mountains and rivers in the human world. Only then would he be able to remove the Frostless Cottage's disguise.
Such a price far exceeded the value of obtaining the Frostless Hut.
Moreover, such large-scale destruction would definitely attract Yan Liu's main force, which would also serve as a refuge.
All in all, the Frostless Hut was a masterpiece of the Unity of Heaven and Man. It was the perfect combination of the Human Realm and the Immortal Realm.
Once he entered the Frostless Hut, he would have absolute security.
That was why Jameson sauce strongly urged the Holy Moon, who had broken bones all over his body, to travel far.
However, the only problem was, was the Frostless Hut still the Frostless Hut of the past?
The purpose of the Frostless Hut's existence was to provide a refuge for Yan Liu's disciples who were active in Xiang County and hide from Liupanshui's pursuit.
Now, the Beauty, Wisdom, and Strength Sects had formed an organization that was considerably powerful. It was strong enough to rival Liupanshui, and the Frostless Hut had lost its strategic importance.
As the relationship between the organization and Liupanshui eased, the Frostless Hut was already in a half-abandoned state.
It had been at least three hundred years since anyone visited the Frostless Hut.
The Frostless Hut was indeed the jewel of Yan Liu's defensive structure, but it had probably lost its former glory after being buried for so long.
This was what Xue Feifei was worried about.
"Feifei, don't worry. The Frostless Hut is an important stronghold for Yan Liu. It won't be abandoned easily," Jameson sauce said confidently.
Xue Feifei's confidence was boosted by Jameson sauce, and she didn't let her imagination run wild anymore.
Although she appeared to be very confident, Jameson Sauce herself wasn't so sure.
She didn't know what the Frostless Hut was like now. After all, no one had been there for three hundred years.
Qin Qianxue could feel Jameson Sauce's nervousness, so she said confidently, "Sweet Sauce, I trust you."
Jameson Sauce nodded.
Now, they could only pray that the Frostless Hut was intact. The Frostless Hut must help them get through this crisis.
After walking along the spirit canal for a while, Jameson Sauce stopped in front of a farmhouse.
She knocked on the door.
The door opened.
An old man with a slightly hunched back appeared in the doorway.
The old man's face was very wrinkled, and his skin was loose, but his eyes were unusually bright.
It was a pair of very spirited eyes.
Only a person full of fighting spirit would have such a pair of eyes.
Did high fighting spirit only belong to young people?
No, only people full of fighting spirit were young.
The old man in front of her was obviously very old, but he was still full of fighting spirit.
Qin Qianxue had only seen such fighting spirit in the eyes of Bo Qiu, Qiu Jianliang, and some other people full of fighting spirit.
"This is the gatekeeper."
Jameson Sauce said to Qin Qianxue behind her.
Qin Qianxue nodded to the gatekeeper, and the gatekeeper nodded back.
"Is the frost-free period of the spirit canal over?" Jameson Sauce asked slowly.
The gatekeeper suddenly became excited, tears welling up in his eyes, but he still replied clearly, "The frost-free period of the spirit canal has always been there."
Qin Qianxue speculated that this should be a code word.
Sure enough.
The gatekeeper said excitedly, "Finally, it comes in handy.
Who are you to Great Master Wushuang?
How is Great Master Wushuang? "
After the code word matched, the gatekeeper finally revealed his identity.
"Great Master Wushuang is now in Yiluo County. He is very well.
We are not Great Master Wushuang's disciples, we just want to take refuge in the Frostless Hut, "Jameson Sauce said.
The gatekeeper's face changed.
Qin Qianxue was surprised to find that at that moment, the gatekeeper seemed to have the will to die.
"This day has finally come."
The gatekeeper sighed, but his tone was quite calm, "I thought this way of retreat would never be used again.
It has been five hundred years, and I dare not forget the teachings of my ancestors for a moment.
Come with me. "
Jameson Sauce followed behind the gatekeeper, Qin Qianxue and Xue Feifei carried the stretcher and walked behind Jameson Sauce.
To Qin Qianxue's surprise, although the gatekeeper was quite old, his legs and feet were quite agile, and he walked as well as young people.
If she didn't see the gatekeeper's loose skin, Qin Qianxue would not doubt that the gatekeeper was in the prime of his life.
After a while, the gatekeeper took Jameson Sauce to a small hill, and gestured with his hands for a while.
Jameson Sauce's eyes followed the gatekeeper's direction, and she kept nodding.
What the gatekeeper pointed out to Jameson Sauce were 21 hills of different heights, which were the keys to get the static password.
Jameson Sauce thought for a moment, and then led everyone into the beautiful space.
A piece of the puzzle appeared in front of everyone, and Jameson Sauce put it together in an instant. The pattern was deduced according to the position of the 21 hills.
The static password was correct.
Jameson Sauce flew over the spiritual canal and watched for a long time.
Then, a window suddenly appeared in the sky.
Yes, a window.
From Qin Qianxue's position, it looked like a small hole was poked in the white window paper, and this paper hole was getting bigger and bigger, and finally occupied half of the sky.
This was the overlap line between the Frostless Hut and the human world.
The Frostless Hut appeared because Jameson Sauce had calculated the dynamic password, and it was correct.
The gatekeeper's clenched hands loosened.
Jameson Sauce led everyone into the Frostless Hut.
After passing through the overlap line, the sky closed again.
The whole process was carried out in the Yan Liu formation, and nothing was exposed outside the formation.
The Frostless Hut was still the Frostless Hut.
Even if no one had visited for hundreds of years, the Frostless Hut was still as good as before.
"Every two months, I come to the Frostless Hut to tidy it up, in case it gets covered in dust," the gatekeeper said proudly.
It was obvious that the gatekeeper regarded guarding the Frostless Hut as a noble cause.
"You just said five hundred years. Does that mean no one has been here for five hundred years?" Qin Qianxue asked.
The gatekeeper nodded. "Yes, only the gatekeeper family has been here.
The last time a disciple of Yan Liu came here to seek refuge was five hundred years ago. "
Jameson Sauce nodded in agreement. "The Frostless Hut is not an ordinary shelter.
Only in extremely dangerous situations, the disciple of Yan Liu will use the Frostless Hut. "
"Yes, the Frostless Hut is the last resort for Yan Liu.
At other times, as long as the disciple of Yan Liu can survive, he will.
If he goes to the Frostless Hut, I'm afraid it will be the end of the road, "the gatekeeper said.
Qin Qianxue sighed.
It turned out that Master Frostless didn't build the Frostless Hut to build an armor for Yan Liu, but to give Yan Liu a belief —
At least there was a place that Yan Liu could absolutely rely on, and no one could break through.
This way, whenever the disciple of Yan Liu thought of the Frostless Hut, he would know that it was not the end of the road, and that there was still a lot of hope.
The courage and confidence born from this would lead Yan Liu through the perilous situation.
The belief of the Frostless Hut was far more important than its defensive capabilities.
The Frostless Hut was like a mini spiritual canal, with a small space near the spiritual canal to provide shelter for the disciple of Yan Liu.
"Don't worry, the Frostless Hut is still intact, and it is still the Frostless Hut.
I'm guarding here to ensure the safety of the Frostless Hut, "the gatekeeper said as he led the way.
Qin Qianxue thought that the gatekeeper was like a monk sweeping the floor, but he was not.
The gatekeeper was just an ordinary person who couldn't fly, and couldn't live forever. He only guarded the door during the Frostless Hut with his flesh and blood.
As long as the maintenance formation of the Frostless Hut was turned on regularly, the Frostless Hut would be able to repair itself.
This made Qin Qianxue admire him.
Master Frostless had already considered the long-term maintenance of the Frostless Hut a few thousand years ago, and she had to admit that she had great foresight.
Maintaining a Frostless Hut was much easier than building a new one.
The gatekeeper led Qin Qianxue's group into the main building of the Frostless Hut, and then left.
Qin Qianxue and Xue Feifei carefully put the Holy Moon on a bed, and the transportation of the wounded was completed.
With the protection of the Frostless Hut, they didn't have to worry about killers coming.
Even if the killers came to the spiritual canal and found the attractive formation, they wouldn't be able to enter the formation if they weren't handsome enough.
Even if the killers were lucky enough to enter the formation, they wouldn't have the password.
Besides, Jameson sauce was already changing the password.
They were safe for now.
Outside the Frostless Hut, the gatekeeper appeared at the top of the mountain where he had left, and slowly walked back to his farmhouse.
This time, the gatekeeper walked very slowly, as if he was walking the last part of the road in this world.
He had to feel every step with his heart, as if he couldn't do it again.
And he had been walking this road for almost a hundred years, every day.
This time, he suddenly became very old.
He was really old.
The gatekeeper closed the door of the farmhouse, shutting the whole world outside.
He didn't turn on the light.
In the darkness, he knelt down in front of the ancestral tablets in the center of the main hall, bowed piously, and touched his forehead to the ground.
After a long time.
Suddenly, a dazzling knife light flashed in the darkness.
The knife light was fast and fierce.
The gatekeeper pulled out his knife and cut his own head!
The knife fell, and blood splashed.
