Chapter 133: Meeting the Frozen Earth
Clatter, clatter~
The falling debris struck the ground, burying the original underground passage into a gully. Zhu Zhiquan and Zhao Yuxin both shielded their heads and dodged the debris continuously, but the Xunfeng Pea Shooter left in place had no mobility and could only be crushed to death by the debris.
Zhu Zhiquan stepped on the bumpy ground and shouted, "Azhao, where are you? Zhao Yuxin~ Can you hear me? Hey~"
Soon, Zhu Zhiquan saw Zhao Yuxin lying on the ground, motionless, the Xuangang Spear in her hand having fallen to the ground in an instant. Zhu Zhiquan rushed to Zhao Yuxin's side.
"Azhao? Azhao?" Zhu Zhiquan patted Zhao Yuxin's cheeks repeatedly. A drop of sweat from his pale face fell stealthily onto Zhao Yuxin's face, and then he saw Zhao Yuxin's face puff up like cotton.
Seeing this, Zhu Zhiquan tentatively tickled her armpit, and Zhao Yuxin's face turned bright red, so he increased his efforts.
At first, Zhao Yuxin was able to hold out, but soon she couldn't help but giggle, "Ajiu, don't... I was wrong, hahaha~ I'll stop pretending!"
Zhu Zhiquan took the opportunity to stop and helped Zhao Yuxin up from the ground.
Zhao Yuxin patted the dust off her body and said, "Ajiu, we should probably head back now. Not to mention our current state, we've been out for so long that Baobao must be getting worried in the vehicle."
Zhu Zhiquan remained silent, turned around to return to the spot where the Xuangang Spear had fallen to pick it up, and then silently returned to Zhao Yuxin's side.
Zhao Yuxin held his hand and swaggered toward the nearest mysterious merchant.
Along the way, Zhao Yuxin led Zhu Zhiquan to avoid meeting others as much as possible. Fortunately, they did not encounter any other players on the way; after all, their current state did not allow for another fierce battle.
After entering the restaurant, Zhao Yuxin plopped down opposite the mysterious merchant and asked while resting her chin on her hand, "Hi, boss, can you bring out some valuable items? We have plenty of Card Points right now!"
Hearing her say this, the mysterious merchant waved a hand, and the goods on the dining table were immediately replaced with a new batch.
"Resurrection items? They look good, but it's a pity they can only be used here. This sword is also nice, but it's too expensive..." Zhao Yuxin picked and chose among the new goods, while Zhu Zhiquan stood to the side, vigilant.
Soon, Zhao Yuxin selected three items from the pile of goods, and her Card Points happened to reach ten.
Name: Vehicle-mounted Vortex Cannon

After Zhao Yuxin learned the two blueprints, she picked up a sphere, which was actually the Vehicle-mounted Vortex Cannon. The mysterious merchant had simply stored it inside for the convenience of Zhao Yuxin and Zhu Zhiquan to carry.
After buying the items, the two walked toward their Tricycle. On the way, Zhao Yuxin said to Zhu Zhiquan, "Ajiu, I think the thing I'm most satisfied with among what we bought this time is this platform blueprint! Guess why."
Zhu Zhiquan also guessed the purpose of this platform from the side, but he intended to pretend he didn't know and said, "Because this thing looks good."
"Wrong." Zhao Yuxin turned her nose up, "It's because this thing allows me to place the plants I create on it, which can increase our firepower. How about that, Ajiu? Am I smart?"
Zhu Zhiquan nodded silently and walked in front, while Zhao Yuxin took out the Xunfeng Crossbow and followed behind him.
Outside their Tricycle, the Ice Cream Cactus stared intently at the direction its parents had left in, refusing to leave, not even noticing that the ice cream in its hand had melted.
"Mm~ mm~" The Ice Cream Cactus chirped softly twice, and a layer of frost immediately crawled over the surroundings.
The Durian Warrior stood silently by its side, holding the Xuangang Spear like a bodyguard.
Tap, tap, tap~
A burst of footsteps approached. The Durian Warrior immediately raised the Xuangang Spear in vigilance, and the Ice Cream Cactus hid back in the vehicle cabin, shivering.
When the Durian Warrior saw who it was, it gradually lowered the Xuangang Spear in its hand. After entering the cabin, the Ice Cream Cactus stuffed its head into a piece of Buli.
"Baobao~"
"Baobao, come out~ Mommy is back." As soon as Zhao Yuxin's voice came, the Ice Cream Cactus immediately straightened its back and ran out of the cabin.
But the next second, a white light flashed, and the group returned to the Volcano Passage. The passage was still the same passage, only this time there was only their group and their vehicle.
The Ice Cream Cactus rubbed its eyes, saw Zhao Yuxin and Zhu Zhiquan standing in front of it, and threw itself into Zhao Yuxin's arms, wailing loudly.
Zhao Yuxin stroked the Ice Cream Cactus's little head, coaxing it in a gentle tone.
Zhu Zhiquan yawned and entered the cabin to sleep. After he crawled into his sleeping bag, the Ice Cream Cactus's crying grew quieter and quieter, and gradually, Zhu Zhiquan drifted off to sleep.
Time soon reached the morning of the fifth day. Because everyone was underground, most players didn't know what day it was.
Moreover, Zhao Yuxin didn't sleep in today, which was rare, because it was simply too cold now, and even frost had secretly crawled onto the tires of the Tricycle.
"So cold!!!" Zhao Yuxin sat up wrapped in her sleeping bag to look outside the vehicle, but she felt her soles were hot. Looking down, she discovered a hot water bottle leaning against her feet.
A blush crept onto her pretty face, and then she went to the window to look outside. She saw the soil outside interspersed with ice and snow; Zhu Zhiquan and the Durian Warrior were practicing their marksmanship, and the Ice Cream Cactus was building a snowman.
"Mm~ mm~" The Ice Cream Cactus saw Zhao Yuxin wake up and waved at her excitedly.
"Coming~" After washing up, Zhao Yuxin wrapped herself in her sleeping bag and went outside. Even wrapped in the sleeping bag, she still felt cold, so she looked at the others.
Zhu Zhiquan was wearing very little; he probably wasn't afraid of the cold at all because of his Hell Body. The Durian Warrior wouldn't feel cold at all, and the Ice Cream Cactus was even less affected.
This meant she was the only one who felt cold. Wouldn't she be laughed at by the plants she created? Where would she put her face? Thinking of this, she decisively threw the sleeping bag back into the cabin and, wearing thin clothes, went to build a snowman with the Ice Cream Cactus.
"Azhao, aren't you cold?" Zhu Zhiquan was curious to see Zhao Yuxin come out like that, so he asked.
Zhao Yuxin made an excuse, "You don't understand, I'm adapting to the cold! Truly... hey, hey, hey~ Ajiu, what are you doing? Put me down! I am, after all..."
Zhu Zhiquan kissed her on the lips, then carried Zhao Yuxin into the cabin.
