Xiao Qing looked at Hu Lichangtian. After all, she had never been here before. The only person who had been here was Hu Lichangtian.

Hu Lichangtian smiled and said, “Although Forgotten Valley is full of dangers, it is not the kind of danger you said. There are indeed insects and snakes in it, but there are no lonely ghosts. It’s just that the insects and snakes in it are very powerful and extremely poisonous.”

“This is not the most fatal thing. The most fatal thing is a tree called Huanxiang. The tree can produce a kind of phantom fragrance. Many people will enter the fantasy world after smelling this fragrance and cannot get out of there until they die.”

“How did you get out at that time?” Bai Zhi asked.

Hu Lichangtian said: “I’ve been with Feina’s mother because of illusion and escaped from my home. At that time, I wanted to escape from there forever, so I resisted and kept running desperately. I didn’t expect to fall into the Forgotten Valley and was almost swallowed by an ice python. Fortunately, my followers saved me.”

“Didn’t your followers get confused by the Fantasy Fragrance Tree?” Bai Zhi asked.

Hu Lichangtian said: “He is mute, deaf, has no parents or relatives, and has never married. He has no worries or troubles in his life. So I think that what can make people enter the illusion is their inner demons. If a person has a clear mind, no worries or pain, he will naturally have no demons.”

Bai Zhi nodded: “I understand, so that’s why it’s called the Forgotten Valley. In this world, how many people don’t have any inner demons? Most of the people who go in will die in it, so people compare it to the underworld.”

The Forgotten Valley was the Styx.

Hu Lichangtian looked at Bai Zhi and asked: “Are you sure you want to go to a place like this? It’s not too late to regret it now.”

Bai Zhi smiled. In this icy and snowy place, her smile was like a blooming snow lotus, pure and dazzling: “Of course I have to go. If I don’t go and see how powerful Snow Lotus is, wouldn’t I have come here in vain?”

Hu Lichangtian also smiled: “Okay, I, Hu Lichangtian, like to deal with people like you. Let’s go. I will do everything I can to protect you so that you can come in and get out alive.”

Bai Zhi stood up from the fire: “From what you said, is there a way to resist the phantom fragrance in Forgotten Valley?”

Hu Lichangtian smiled mysteriously and said: “You will know when the time comes.”

The five set out again. After crossing this narrow alley, they entered the blizzard again and moved forward step by step with difficulty.

Hu Lichangtian said that although it was hard to move forward in such a severe blizzard, it was not completely without benefits.

For example, the snow snakes, snow pythons, and poisonous snow scorpions that usually like to bite people hide in their caves in such weather and dare not come out.

They avoid many dangers invisibly, which can be regarded as another kind of amulet.

Under Hu Lichangtian’s constant urging, they arrived at the second place where the pot and firewood were hidden when night fell.

“This was hidden 3 years ago. I came here once before and after. There should be a lot left.” Hu Lichangtian said as he lifted the large oil paper. A white shadow rushed out from the pile of firewood.

Fortunately, the guards beside Bai Zhi were quick-witted and quickly drew their swords to cut the white shadow. When the sword fell, everyone looked closely and found that it was a snow snake. Its body was still twisting on the ground, but its head had been separated from the snake’s body.

The dark red blood bloomed into bright red plums on the snow and instantly condensed into ice.
