Chapter 2133 Always Have to Try
Although the cold pond was bone-chilling and made him shiver when he touched it, Ye Tianlong still jumped in without hesitation.
If he didn't go down to grab a few heart-penetrating fruits, the white-veiled woman and the snow snake would eat them again, and he would have to cry and wait for another six years.
And six years later, he didn't know whether he would be alive. Besides, the white-veiled woman could go down, but why couldn't he, a man, go down?
Ye Tianlong has always liked diving. His original intention was to squat under the swimming pool to look at the thighs of beautiful women, but after practicing too much, it became a unique skill.
He swam down in the cold pond like a fish, and his speed was amazing, but the water was deeper than he thought, and the deeper he went, the more chest tightness he felt.
The water pressure was strong, the temperature was low, and the physical strength was consumed. Before he reached the bottom of the pond, Ye Tianlong felt as tired as if he had killed two hundred people.
"Hu——"
Ye Tianlong slowed down, pulled a tube from the Eagle battle suit and stuffed it into his mouth, took a luxurious breath of oxygen, and then dived down again.
Two minutes later, Ye Tianlong finally touched the bottom of the pool. He took a few deep breaths of oxygen and ate two chocolate beans to relax his body.
The pool was so cold that he consumed nearly half of his strength, but he did not stop for too long. He looked around after half a minute.
He found that there were no fish in the pool, only some underwater plants.
Although the water was cold, the plants were full of vitality and looked very tough, no, to be precise, young.
These underwater plants did not have any decay or rotten smell. They all bloomed with vitality, as if they would never age.
"This pool really has a fresh-keeping effect."
A touch of surprise flashed across Ye Tianlong's eyes, and then he took another breath of oxygen and continued to swim in the pool to check the environment, while looking for the rumored ice tree.
After turning a corner, Ye Tianlong stopped and his eyes fell on something in front of him.
A ten-meter-high tree, with a trunk surrounded by three people, snow-white, and lush branches and leaves. At first glance, it looked like a Christmas tree, exuding a biting chill.
With every step closer, Ye Tianlong could feel the cold. When he was ten meters away from the tree, the heat of the Eagle Battle Suit could no longer withstand the cold.
Waves of coolness bound Ye Tianlong's hands and feet like water grass, and then slowly spread to his whole body, making his skin begin to become cold.
Ye Tianlong hurriedly took out a few prepared pills and swallowed them, stimulating some body heat to counter the cold brought by the tree.
At the same time, he sighed: "This is 100% that ice tree, it is really cold."
Approaching two meters closer, Ye Tianlong found that there were groups of fish swimming around the tree, of different sizes and types, almost thousands of them!
These fish were also snow-white, swimming around the tree one by one, and their flexibility and agility allowed Ye Tianlong to clearly feel the vitality.
Vigorous and energetic.
Ye Tianlong took a few steps forward and found that these fish were not actually surrounding the ice tree, but the fruits of the ice tree, five thumb-sized red fruits.
The fish swam around the five fruits and fought desperately for the spring water around them, as if drinking a mouthful would make them immortal.
"The Heart-penetrating Fruit?"
Ye Tianlong's eyes lit up, and then, regardless of whether his judgment was correct, he squeezed into the fish school with a whoosh, and picked five fruits with agile movements.
"Whoosh!"
But just as Ye Tianlong's fingers grasped a fruit, he was horrified to find that the fruit was like something that could "turn stone into gold".
It instantly made Ye Tianlong's hand sticky, and an unstoppable chill came, and his mind seemed to be slowly frozen by the chill.
This feeling was like a person falling into a deep ice cave, knowing that he would be frozen to death, but unable to get rid of it.
Ye Tianlong instinctively wanted to shout, but his voice did not sound.
The chill was like a sharp and extremely cold sword, piercing his throat, ruthlessly cutting off his shouts and his resistance.
"Pah!"
Ye Tianlong cried out inwardly that it was not good. He was afraid that he would capsize in the gutter this time. This worry immediately made him irritable, and his inner anger rose.
The thought of slaughtering everything instantly surged in his body, and his eyes turned red, wishing to chop down the tree.
The world was against him, so he slaughtered the whole world, killing gods and ghosts.
"Pah!"
It was this irritability that made Ye Tianlong's blood hot, and also made the invading coldness stagnate slightly, slowing down the rhythm of spreading throughout the body.
The irritability and coldness collided, like water and fire collided, and it was like a crisp sound that exploded in Ye Tianlong's body, and also made his body tremble and regain flexibility.
Ye Tianlong bounced away like being stabbed with a fire stick, then took off his coat to disperse the fish around him, took out a little red and swung a few knives.
He knocked down the five heart-penetrating fruits as quickly as possible, and then rolled them all up with his clothes.
"Hurry up!"
Ye Tianlong left immediately after getting the Heart-penetrating Fruit. If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would freeze to death.
Seeing Ye Tianlong pick the fruit, the fish that were dispersed gathered again and rushed towards him one by one. For a while, Ye Tianlong was surrounded by fish.
Some fish even bit him with their mouths.
Ye Tianlong shook his body a few times, drove away the fish again and swam quickly. The fish did not let him go and formed a long dragon to chase him.
The further upstream he went, the more fish chased him. It seemed that all the creatures living in the pond wanted to fight for the Heart-penetrating Fruit in his hand.
"Ah——"
Ye Tianlong felt a chill on his back and swam harder. Soon he touched the water surface. He raised his head, shook his body, and broke through the water.
He flipped over and swiftly got ashore, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Exhausted.
He now understood why this ice tree was so hard to find. This pool was not for ordinary people to enter.
No wonder the woman in white gauze said that she could not swim three times a year. Ye Tianlong felt that the next time would seriously damage his body.
"Tianlong!"
When Ye Tianlong was half-kneeling on the ground, another person jumped out of the pool and a bare hand grabbed his foot.
Ye Tianlong shuddered, turned his head, and saw the woman in white gauze holding his ankle. He was startled: "Madam, what are you doing?"
"One, two, three, four... seven... eight?"
The woman in white gauze was excited at first, and then stunned: "Eight stars? You stepped on eight stars? Why not seven stars?"
The hope that was finally seen was dimmed by one more star. The woman in white gauze said with a touch of sadness: "Why not seven stars?"
"Because..."
Ye Tianlong was about to respond, but he saw the snow snake running over. He had already dropped his body temperature, and the wind brought by the snow snake blew on him, and he shivered immediately.
He fainted with a plop.
"Ye Tianlong, Ye Tianlong!"
The woman in white gauze saw Ye Tianlong fainted, and kept calling his name, then stretched out her hand to hold his pulse and felt his pulse, her eyebrows relaxed...
Then, she looked at the soles of Ye Tianlong's feet, and her words were full of undisguised regret:
"Why not seven stars..."
Then she murmured to herself: "I have to try to confirm it..."
