Chapter 629: Digging For Treasures
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Holy Heaven Dynasty was located in the northern part of the continent, and this was Gu Qingluan’s first visit here.
The temperature there was much lower than in Tianjing, and large flakes of snow were falling from the sky, making the journey more challenging.
With less than half of the journey remaining, they should be able to reach their destination by horse-drawn carriage if nothing unexpected occurs.
Therefore, they opted for a carriage, and everyone enjoyed a comfortable ride with carriages all around to protect them from the cold wind and snow.
“We’ll be entering the city soon. After that, everyone can rest for the night and recover from fatigue,” Feng Tianlan said gently, looking at Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan’s cultivation level was high, so she wasn’t feeling tired. However, Gu Xiaonan and the others were young, and the long journey by carriage had taken a toll on their energy. They didn’t look as spirited as when they had first set out.
She gently touched Yuanxi, who was sleeping in her arms.
His little face had been slightly squished, and his fair, tender cheeks were pressed together, tempting one to pinch them.
However, she didn’t want to wake him up, so she resisted the urge and sighed softly in regret.
After another half hour of carriage travel, they finally entered the city.
The guards had already made all the necessary arrangements, so after entering the city, they went straight to an inn.
Both Gu Xiaonan and Feng Yuanxi regained their energy after a nap on the carriage, and they looked around with bright, curious eyes.
Gu Xiaonan hadn’t seen the snow before he fell asleep, and when he woke up, he was surprised to find the world outside covered in white.
It was his first time seeing such heavy snow, and he couldn’t help but reach out and touch it.
“It’s so cold!” Gu Xiaonan exclaimed as he felt the coldness in his hands, unable to suppress his laughter.
Xiao Mei curled up into a ball, refusing to come out of the room.
Xiao Bai, on the other hand, pounced into the snowdrifts and began to play.
Its snow-white fur almost blended with the white snow, making it look like part of the landscape.
Gu Xiaonan reminded, “Xiao Bai, don’t run around, or we won’t be able to find you later!”
“Squeak!” Xiao Bai jumped out of the snowdrift and wagged its tail at him.
The snowflakes fell gently on Gu Xiaonan.
The little guy suddenly looked like a dwarf with a white beard.
He shivered from the cold.
“All, you naughty Xiao Bai! Are you doing this on purpose? I’ll show you how powerful 1 am!”
Saying that, he thrust his hands into the snow and grabbed a handful, then hurled it at Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai agilely dodged his attack.
Not willing to give up, Gu Xiaonan grabbed another handful of snow and threw it at him.
A person and a fox played in the snow.
Feng Yuanxi stood under the eaves, watching.
His Xiao Hei was afraid of the cold, so it disliked winter and refused to come out, staying in his arms.
He didn’t particularly like winter either.
In the past, when he was in Prince Lan’s Residence, he would feel lonely in the winter.
Especially during the coldest times, his royal father would disappear for a while.
However, this winter didn’t seem so hard to endure.
He found his mother and twin brother now.
“Yuanxi, come and play with us!” Gu Xiaonan called from a distance.
In the short time they had been playing, he had chased Xiao Bai quite a distance.
Yuanxi replied, “Let’s play near the entrance; don’t go too far. Mother will worry.”
Gu Xiaonan looked at the sky and thought Yuanxi had a point. He called out to Xiao Bai, and they headed back together.
Xiao Bai glanced at him, then turned to look at the main street, making some chirping sounds and pointing its little paw in the direction of the street.
“Do you want to go for a walk? We’ll ask Mother later, and if she agrees, we can go. But let’s go back first.”
Gu Xiaonan ran up to it and bent down to pick it up.
Xiao Bai struggled for a moment, jumped down onto the snowy ground, and then ran forward.
Gu Xiaonan furrowed his brows and said, “Xiao Bai, come back quickly, or you won’t get dinner!”
Xiao Bai didn’t run far before stopping under a big tree at a street corner, where it started digging into a pile of snow.
Gu Xiaonan caught up and asked, “What are you digging for?”
“Squeak!” Xiao Bai excitedly patted the snow pile with its paw.
Gu Xiaonan blinked his eyes and asked, “Is there something inside?”
