Jiao Ba's face turned extremely pale, "Yes, according to the wisdom of the ice demon, it is entirely possible for it to do this. Along the way, they were planning how to kill us, but by some strange combination of circumstances, they failed several times.
My ancestors bless me, and I hope Mai Lao and the others can turn their bad luck into good."
The big man suddenly interrupted and said, "Li Xin, actually before we met you, Zhongyi and I met the ice demon. The ice demon turned into you and was injured by us later. Zhongyi went out
When I was chasing it, I saw you. At that time... I almost wanted to shoot you. If Zhongyi hadn't stopped me all the time, I might have accidentally killed you. I guess this was also a plan of the ice demon. "No way.
I thought that this big man could actually analyze things.
Li Xin looked at me with gentle eyes again, and I said a little embarrassedly, "Don't look at me like that, I just..."
"I understand, thank you for your loyalty." Before I finished speaking, she slowly held my hand and said.
I smiled awkwardly, not knowing what she knew. Anyway, seeing that Li Xin was safe, I felt relieved. As for Jenny, she must not need me.
I miss you so much. With Martin here, I don’t think they need me much.
"Okay, don't thank me for now. Brother Yi, what should we do now?" Shunzi looked at me and asked.
"What can we do? Keep going. We have to find Mr. Mai and the others quickly. By the way, Li Xin, are Mr. Mai and the others moving forward?" I squatted down and started to pack my things.
Li Xin nodded and said, "Well, it should be so. According to his intention, he wants to move forward along the ice city, but I don't know what is in front of him."
"Then get ready to go, big man, you're the one who is going to carry the iron man." This task must be given to him.
"Ah? It's me again? I've been carrying it all the way." The big man was a little reluctant.
I patted his shoulder and said, "You are in good shape, so just work harder. When you get tired, Jiao Ba and I will replace you."
We packed everything up, and everyone's guns have been replaced with bullets. But now we don't have many bullets in our hands, almost half of them have been consumed. It seems that this place is worse than I expected, and we haven't gone very far yet.
Well, the ammunition is almost running out, which is not a good thing.
Only after we walked to the street did I realize that the place we were just now was actually a civilian residence, a relatively large courtyard house, not very far from the previous brothel. We were relatively lucky, and we were resting
During this period of time, the ice demons did not come to visit us. If they suddenly appeared at that time, we might not be able to escape safely.
The sky outside is still gloomy. There is no sunshine inside. The sky and the ground are the same color, all white, but the sky is closer to gray. Sometimes it is even difficult for me to distinguish the sky from the earth. This is an easy task.
A place that creates illusions.
Although it's not that dark here, the visibility is very bad, and the red snowflakes are still floating in the sky. This is the most incomprehensible thing to me. Where did this thing come from? Why did it disappear after landing? It
Apart from affecting our vision, I can't even feel its existence.
"How long has this red snow been falling? Why hasn't it stopped yet?" I stopped and looked up at the gray-white sky and asked.
"It's been a while. What is this thing? Can you explain it, Lao Ba?" Shunzi turned to ask Jiao Ba.
Jiao Ba sneered and said, "I can't explain it. I'm not an encyclopedia. How can I understand so much? Everyone should be careful. This red snow is not a good thing. Let's go."
We walked along the street. There was no cold wind or fog. Except for the falling red snowflakes, the surroundings were quiet. This kind of tranquility was like the prelude to the coming storm, which made people panic.
.
The whole city is dead silent. I can't feel any breath of living people here. It's just like what Jiao Ba said. It's like a ghost gate leading to hell, which makes people feel frightened.
The road ahead was not clearly visible at all. The farther we looked, the blurrier it became. It felt like it was shrouded in a mysterious veil. We had no end point and just followed the route on the navigation chart and marched forward.
We have been walking for more than half an hour, but no one said a word along the way. The atmosphere seemed very dull. Everyone kept their heads down and walked forward, occasionally observing the surrounding situation. Everyone's expression was very serious.
, all holding guns tightly in their hands. This atmosphere was very bad, and everyone was a little too nervous.
"Why don't you say anything?" I walked in front and asked them sideways.
The others glanced at me, but still didn't say a word. The big man and Shunzi continued to walk with their heads down, while Jiao Ba and Chang Shan shook their heads back and forth, always on the best alert.
Li Xin was always beside me, but she didn't say a word. I didn't hear a word they said during the whole journey. Even when we were on the island, the big guys sometimes teased Menzi.
It's dangerous, but it won't be so boring.
"Hey, let me tell you, are you all mute? Why don't you say a word?" I stopped and turned around to look at them.
But these guys were so good. They just walked past me as if I didn't exist. Just like the walking zombies, they had no emotions at all. I was immediately stunned.
I stood there, stunned for more than ten seconds, and then Li Xin turned around and called me, "Zhongyi, why are you so dazed? Hurry up and leave."
I responded and hurriedly chased after her, "You finally spoke, I thought you were mute." After I caught up with Li Xin, I whispered in her ear.
Li Xin said expressionlessly, "It's not that I'm mute, it's that none of them spoke. It seems that everyone is very nervous."
I stopped again, turned around and said, "Laoba, Brother Changshan, what's wrong with you? This has gone all the way and you haven't even said a word."
Jiao Ba stopped, looked at me and said, "What do you want us to say?"
I said casually, "You can say... you can say anything, it's better than not saying a word at all. It feels like a bunch of dead people, without any vitality at all."
"You're just a dead person, what's there to say?" Jiao Ba said, glaring at me.
"Zhongyi, stop making trouble. Now is not the time for small talk. It's better to hurry up and hurry up. Mai Lao and the others are still uncertain about their life or death." After Chang Shan finished speaking, he passed me and continued on his way.
The big man walked up to me with an iron mask on his back, patted me on the shoulder and said, "Young man, you have to endure loneliness." The grandson had an elder's tone, as if he was lecturing a child.
I was so angry that I was about to refute him, but Li Xin grabbed my wrist and said, "Forget Zhongyi, let them go. No one is in the mood to talk now. There is danger everywhere here, so it's better to be cautious."
"Of course I know it's dangerous here, but... I feel like everyone's mentality is too heavy. Look at them, everyone looks nervous. This consumes a lot of energy."
People's mentality is very important. If the nerves are always tense, it may be very effective in the short term, but over time, the person's body will not be able to bear it and will tire much faster than normal. It is an overload operation.
Once you really encounter trouble, it's easy to make mistakes.
"But..." As soon as Li Xin started speaking, her words got stuck. Her face, which was still smiling at first, turned gloomy in an instant. She stared behind me with frightened eyes, and her breathing began to quicken.
I immediately felt a wave of cold air coming from behind me. Could it be the Ice Demon standing behind me? I still forced myself to ask, "Hey...you...what's wrong with you? Are you talking?"
Li Xin looked at me, slowly stretched out her hand, pointed forward and said, "There is something behind you...there is something behind you."
I glanced at her, clenched the gun in my hand, and turned around sharply. About ten meters behind me, there was a white wolf staring at me, its beastly eyes emitting a faint blue light.
It was motionless, squatting in front like a sculpture. The fangs in its mouth were clearly visible, as if it was staring at its prey. I looked around with my peripheral vision. There were no other white wolves around, only
This one, it seems, wants to die early.
"Zhongyi, will it be following us all the time?" Li Xin asked quietly behind me.
I don’t know when this ghost appeared, but it’s really possible that it was following us all the way. How many white wolves are there? Why can’t I kill them all?
Or, there are simply countless of these ghosts. Even if we run out of bullets, we can't kill them all. What does the sudden appearance of this white wolf mean? I don't know anything else, but it is definitely not a good intention.
.
No matter what, let's kill it first. Just when I was about to shoot, suddenly, a gunshot sounded past my ear. The white wolf started very quickly. When the gunshot sounded
, it ran away immediately, and I didn’t even see clearly which way it ran to.
At this time, the big man ran up to me and cursed, "Damn it, you let this beast escape." He must have fired the shot just now.
Jiao Ba and Chang Shan also rushed over, "Brother Yi, why are you in such a daze?" Jiao Ba finally said something useful.
I shook my head and said, "Oh, it's okay, I just don't understand why the white wolf follows us all the way?"
"Never mind him, if he dares to come again, I will kill him with one shot." The big man said with a big grin on his face, holding a rifle.
"It's better to save your bullets. Haven't you noticed that no matter how hard you kill these white wolves, there seems to be no way to kill them all." I looked at everyone and expressed my worries.
