"This...is this a fairy method?" Liehuo widened his eyes, his honest face full of disbelief.

Luo Xiaoyu jumped up even more excitedly, pointed at the man in white, and said excitedly: "Wow! Big brother, you are so awesome!"

Doctor Zhang couldn't help but exclaim: "I didn't expect there was such a master in the world. It's really an eye-opener!"

Grandma Lin clasped her hands together and bowed slightly to the man in white, while Xiaohong secretly looked at the man in white.

The man in white just smiled slightly and didn't say much. He waved the jade flute again and everyone felt a warm current flowing all over their bodies, and the feeling of fatigue disappeared.

Everyone's hearts were filled with admiration for the man in white, as if they had found a new direction. They walked lightly and continued to walk towards the direction where the sound of the flute came.

After passing through a dense bamboo forest, everyone's eyes suddenly became clear and they came to a valley.

The valley is surrounded by towering peaks, and the top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland.

However, just as everyone was immersed in this beautiful scenery, the temperature around them suddenly dropped, and a chill came in, as if they were in an ice cellar.

Everyone couldn't help but hug their arms tightly, and their teeth began to tremble, "It's so cold..."

Luo Xiaoyu was tightly wrapped in her thin clothes, and her face was a little blue with cold.

Xiaohong's face was even pale and her lips began to turn purple. She grabbed Grandma Lin's clothes tightly and kept trembling.

Doctor Zhang quickly stopped and said anxiously: "If this continues, we have to find a place to avoid the cold."

Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, snuggling each other to keep warm, and the meager temperature on each other was conveying each other.

They were filled with uneasiness. Should they always endure this cold invasion?

Elder Chen looked around, while Zhao Yinshi frowned tightly, as if thinking about something. Suddenly he turned his head and said to Elder Chen beside him: "I remember here..."

The biting cold wind blew across everyone's cheeks like a knife, making them tremble.

Luo Xiaoyu's teeth couldn't help but tremble, and the sound of "clogging" was made.

Xiaohong's face was already cold and lost its blood color, her lips were purple, and her breathing became rapid.

Zhang Lang was anxious in the center. He knew that this was not a solution. Long-term cold would cause great harm to the body and even endanger his life.

"It seems we have to find a way to make a fire to keep warm," Zhang Langzhong looked around, hoping to find some dry firewood, but there was nothing around except bare rocks and some frozen plants.

Just as everyone was in despair, Liehuo took out a small cloth bag from his arms, containing some dry herbs.

"This is the 'warm sun grass' I picked on the mountain. After igniting it, it can dispel the cold air." Li Lieun said, igniting the herbs with flint.

A strange fragrance spread instantly, with a faint fragrance of medicine and a warm breath.

Surprisingly, the surrounding temperature began to slowly rise, and the cold wind gradually weakened.

Everyone's originally cold body gradually warmed up, and their stiff muscles began to relax.

"This... this is so amazing!" Luo Xiaoyu widened her eyes in surprise, as if she had seen an incredible scene.

Xiaohong also stopped trembling, a trace of blood appeared on her pale face, and she looked at Liehuang gratefully, "Thank you, Brother Li."

Grandma Lin held Xiaohong and Luo Xiaoyu's hands tightly. She patted the back of their hands gently and said softly: "It's okay, children, it's okay."

Xiaohong and Luo Xiaoyu felt the warmth of Grandma Lin’s palms and their hearts were filled with emotion.

They snuggled tightly beside Grandma Lin, feeling the hard-won warmth and security.

Everyone sat around the burning herbs, snuggling up to each other, sharing the hard-earned warmth.

Their faces had long-lost smiles, as if they had forgotten the fear and cold they had before.

At this moment, the sound of the flute sounded again, clearer and more melodious than before.

Everyone looked in the sound and found a path not far away...

"Is this... Could it be..." Elder Chen pointed at Xiaolu, with a hint of disbelief in his tone.

Following the sound of the flute, everyone walked through a winding path and finally reached the source of the sound.

What presented to them was a beautiful garden.

Colorful flowers bloom in full bloom, and the air is filled with the intoxicating fragrance of flowers.

The clear stream winds, making a pleasant jingle sound.

The sun shines through the branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadow on the ground, like a fairyland.

"Wow! So beautiful!" Luo Xiaoyu couldn't help but exclaim, and an excited light flashed in her eyes.

Xiaohong was also fascinated by the sight. She had never seen such a beautiful place before, as if she was in a dream.

Grandma Lin looked at the scenery in front of her kindly, and a gratified smile appeared on her face.

Doctor Zhang couldn't help but sigh: "It's such a paradise!"

Liehuo scratched his head honestly.

Elder Chen stroked his beard, his eyes shining with a wise light.

Zhao Yinshi silently observed the surrounding environment.

Everyone was immersed in this beautiful scenery, and their hearts were filled with joy and excitement.

They couldn't wait to walk into the garden, trying to find out.

In the center of the garden, there is a small and exquisite wooden house.

The wooden house emits a faint golden light, as if it has some magical power.

"What is that?" Xiaohong pointed to the wooden house and asked curiously.

"I don't know, just go over and take a look." Luo Xiaoyu said, and was about to walk towards the wooden house.

"Wait!" Doctor Zhang stopped her, "Be careful of fraud."

Everyone hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to get close to the wooden house.

They walked carefully towards the wooden house, taking every step with great caution.

Just as they were about to walk to the wooden house, suddenly, a rustling sound came from the grass around the wooden house.

"What sound?" Luo Xiaoyu asked vigilantly.

Everyone held their breath and listened carefully.

"It seems... something is moving..." Xiaohong's voice trembled a little.

Everyone stared at the grass, leaning forward slightly, ready to go...

The rustling sound in the grass became louder and louder, as if countless small insects were gnawing on the leaves, and it was like some unknown creature peeking in the dark.

Everyone held their breath, their heartbeats as fast as a drum, staring at the grass, leaning forward slightly, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

The air was filled with a faint smell of earth, mixed with the fragrance of grass leaves, but it made people feel inexplicably oppressed.

Xiaohong grabbed Luo Xiaoyu's clothes tightly and hid behind her, her body trembling slightly, and her delicate face was full of anxiety and fear.

She carefully poked half of her head, her eyes filled with horror, as if something terrible would jump out of the grass in the next second.

Luo Xiaoyu seemed very impatient. She clenched her fists and looked eager to try.

She took a step forward and was about to rush to the cottage, but a slender and powerful hand grabbed her arm and stopped her movements. She looked back and saw a man in white appearing behind her at some point. He stopped her with an unquestionable look.

The man in white had a handsome face, but with a hint of elusive mystery. He exuded a bitter breath, which made people dare not approach it easily.

Luo Xiaoyu stared at the man in white with dissatisfaction, with her eyebrows raised and her round eyes full of anger. She opened her mouth and was about to question her, but was shocked by the cold eyes of the man in white.

She curled her lips unwillingly, but she knew that it was better not to act rashly at this moment.

Everyone looked at the stalemate of the two people and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Doctor Zhang frowned, his eyes full of worry. He paced back and forth, trying to find a safe way.

Grandma Lin also showed a look of worry on her kind face. She gently pulled Xiaohong's corner of her clothes, trying to calm her nervousness.

Liehuo scratched his head honestly, looked at the man in white at a loss, and then looked at Luo Xiaoyu.

Zhao Yinshi was still taciturn. He just looked at everything in front of him quietly, and there seemed to be some secret hidden in his deep eyes.

Everyone was in a dilemma, and the atmosphere was so tense that it seemed like it was about to break out.

At this moment, Elder Chen suddenly spoke slowly. His eyes were like torch, staring at the small wooden house with a faint golden light, and slowly said: "Maybe..."

Elder Chen stroked his white beard, stared at the hut with bright eyes, and said slowly: "There seems to be some kind of ancient formation around this hut. If you break in rashly, it may trigger the mechanism. I have seen similar records in an ancient book. The way to crack it is..." He paused, looked around everyone, and said word by word, "In the order of the five elements, it is placed in the five steps in front of the door according to the order of gold, wood, water, fire and earth."

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to find the five elements for a moment.

Zhang Langzhong reacted first. He took out the golden needle from the medicine box and said, "The golden needle can be gold." Li Liehuo took off the short knife with a wooden handle from his waist and said, "The hilt of the knife can be wood." Grandma Lin took out a small porcelain bottle filled with clear water from her arms and said, "Clear water can be water." Luo Xiaoyu had an idea and took out the burning turtle from the fire fold, saying, "The turtle can be fire." Finally, Zhao Yinshi silently grabbed a handful of soil from the ground and said, "The turtle can be earth."

Following Elder Chen's instructions, everyone placed the five elements in front of the door of the cottage in turn.

It's strange that when the last handful of soil was put down, the golden light around the hut gradually dissipated, and the feeling of depression that enveloped everyone's hearts also disappeared.

"It's done!" Luo Xiaoyu shouted excitedly and pushed open the door of the cottage first.

A stale smell came to my face, mixed with a pungent smell of mold, making it difficult to breathe.

Everyone came in one after another, with a look of surprise on their faces, and their gratitude to Elder Chen was beyond words.

"Cough cough cough..." Xiaohong suddenly coughed in discomfort. She covered her chest with a pale face, and her delicate body was like a willow branch swaying in the wind.
