Chapter 258: Death cannot be resurrected
He walked aimlessly and unknowingly came to a small town. He walked into an inn and wanted to rest.
The inn was bustling with people. Chu Tian found a corner to sit down and ordered some food and wine.
He drank silently, his mind full of thoughts. He thought of every detail of his time with Ling Shuang, his heart filled with sadness and nostalgia.
Suddenly, a voice interrupted his thoughts.
"Sir, I see you look unfamiliar. Is this your first time in our town?"
Chu Tian raised his head and saw a middle-aged man standing in front of him.
The middle-aged man was of sturdy build and had a full beard, looking like a gangster.
"Yes." Chu Tian replied indifferently.
"My name is Zhao Hu." The middle-aged man introduced himself, "I'm the owner of this inn."
"My name is Chu Tian."
"Mr. Chu, you look very worried. Have you encountered any trouble?" Zhao Hu asked with concern.
Chu Tian hesitated for a moment, but finally told Zhao Hu about his experience.
Zhao Hu couldn't help but sigh after listening to Chu Tian's story. "Alas, what a sin..."
"Boss Zhao, do you know the snow giant?" Chu Tian asked.
"Snow Giant?" Zhao Hu frowned. "I've heard of it. It's said to be a monster that lives on the snowy mountains."
"Do you know where he is?"
Zhao Hu shook his head. "I don't know. I've only heard of it, but never seen it."
Chu Tian sighed in disappointment. He knew that it would not be easy to find the snow giant.
"Master Chu, you don't have to be too sad." Zhao Hu comforted him, "The dead cannot be resurrected, so you should just accept the change."
Chu Tian nodded. He knew Zhao Hu was right, but he just couldn't let it go.
"Mr. Chu, I see that you are also a martial artist, so why don't you join our escort agency?" Zhao Hu suddenly said.
"Escort agency?" Chu Tian was a little confused.
"Our escort agency is responsible for escorting goods, and the income is not bad." Zhao Hu explained, "If you are willing, I can arrange a position for you."
Chu Tian thought about it and felt that this was a good choice.
Chu Tian thought for a moment and accepted Zhao Hu's proposal. Instead of wandering aimlessly, it is better to find a place to stay first and then make plans. Besides, the life in the escort agency may allow him to temporarily forget the pain in his heart and find a new goal.
"Okay, Boss Zhao, I'm willing to join your escort agency." Chu Tian said.
"Great!" Zhao Hu slapped his thigh, looking very happy, "I'll take you to meet the brothers right away."
Zhao Hu led Chu Tian to the backyard, where a group of escorts were training. They were all strong and sturdy, wielding swords and shouting loudly.
"Brothers, this is Chu Tian. He will be a member of our escort agency from now on." Zhao Hu introduced him to everyone.
The escorts stopped one after another and looked at Chu Tian curiously.
"Brother Chu, welcome to join us!" A tall bodyguard came forward and patted Chu Tian's shoulder enthusiastically.
"My name is Li Dazhuang."
"Hello." Chu Tian responded.
In the next few days, Chu Tian trained with the escort masters and learned the rules of the escort agency. He found that life in the escort agency was not as simple as he imagined. In addition to being proficient in martial arts, he also had to learn to observe people's expressions and adapt to circumstances.
Once, the escort agency received a business to escort a batch of goods to a neighboring town, and Chu Tian also went with them.
On the way, they encountered a group of bandits, who were numerous and fierce.
The escorts fought hard, but they were outnumbered and gradually lost the upper hand.
Upon seeing this, Chu Tian stepped forward and used the martial arts he learned from the Snow Temple to engage in a fierce battle with the bandits.
His martial arts were exquisite and every move was deadly, and he quickly defeated the bandits.
In the end, the escorts successfully repelled the bandits and saved the goods.
After this battle, Chu Tian's prestige in the escort agency increased greatly. The escorts all looked at him with new eyes and praised his great martial arts skills.
Zhao Hu praised him highly and decided to promote him to the position of escort leader.
Although Chu Tian still felt pain in his heart, the life in the escort agency helped him find a new goal and direction. He gradually began to adapt to the new life and made some new friends.
One night, Chu Tian was resting in his room when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.
He opened the door and saw a man in black standing outside.
The man in black had his face covered, so his features couldn't be seen clearly.
"Who are you?" Chu Tian asked vigilantly.
"I'm here to give you a message." said the man in black.
"what news?"
"The snow giant appeared."
Chu Tian was shocked when he heard this. The snow giant he had been looking for finally appeared.
"Where is he?" Chu Tian asked anxiously.
"The Arctic Ice Field." After the man in black said this, he turned and left.
Chu Tian packed his bags without any hesitation and prepared to head to the Arctic ice field.
He bid farewell to Zhao Hu and his brothers from the escort agency and embarked on a journey to find the snow giant.
The Arctic ice field is covered with ice and snow, and the cold wind is howling.
Chu Tian struggled forward in the wind and snow.
He walked for several days and nights and finally came to the foot of a huge iceberg.
There is a huge cave on the iceberg.
Chu Tian knew that the snow giant was in this cave.
He took a deep breath and walked into the cave.
The cave was pitch black, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Chu Tian groped forward, and suddenly, he felt something under his feet.
He looked down and found a dead body under his feet.
The body was frozen stiff and its features could not be seen clearly.
Chu Tian was shocked and quickly took a few steps back.
Just then, a loud noise was heard from deep within the cave.
A huge figure walked out of the darkness.
It was the snow giant.
The snow giant was dozens of feet tall and covered with thick ice and snow.
It held a huge icicle in its hand and walked towards Chu Tian aggressively.
Chu Tian drew his sword and prepared to fight.
He knew that this battle would be the hardest battle of his life.
The snow giant waved the icicle and smashed it towards Chu Tian.
Chu Tian dodged nimbly, then swung his sword at the snow giant's leg.
The sword hit the snow giant's leg, making a crisp sound.
However, the snow giant's legs were intact.
Chu Tian was shocked. He knew that ordinary weapons could not hurt the snow giant at all.
He had to find the snow giant's weakness.
The snow giant waved the icicle again and smashed it towards Chu Tian.
Chu Tian dodged again, and then carefully observed the snow giant's movements.
He discovered that although the snow giants' movements were clumsy, they were extremely powerful.
Moreover, the snow giant does not seem to have any weaknesses.
Chu Tian was extremely anxious. He knew that if he couldn't find the snow giant's weakness, he would be killed by the snow giant sooner or later.
Just then, the snow giant suddenly stopped.
It lowered its head and looked at Chu Tian, with a hint of doubt in its eyes.
"Who are you?" asked the snow giant, his voice as loud as thunder.
Chu Tian was delighted, he knew that this was an opportunity.
"I'm here to kill you." Chu Tian said.
