She stood by the window and looked through the window at the dark clouds in the sky.
"Don't worry, Zhang Long didn't find it, but he broke you."
Li Yi's throat was dry and he wanted to say something to refute, but the weather was really bad and he was not sure. He threw the bag on the table, turned around and walked out of the door.
He Youyou opened the strap on the table and poured the food inside into a larger bag. Then he put in some dried meat and a kettle that could keep warm, filling the bag to the brim.
She said that Zhang Long had been missing for such a long time and it was freezing outside. He must be starving.
These words made Bai Wenwen's eyes dim a lot. She looked at the vast white field outside the window, and her heart became heavier and heavier.
Liu Lu and Duan Na quickly expressed their comfort, but she just forced out a smile and told everyone to have a good rest, as they would have to stand guard for a while.
Xiong Yujia and Liu Yi walked in from outside holding a bundle of firewood.
"Brother Long, who is usually such a cautious person, suddenly ran out without any reason and without any dry food, and didn't come back for such a long time. Don't you think it's strange?"
As Xiong Yujia spoke, she put the firewood in her hand into the stove.
"you mean?"
Liu Lu looked at her doubtfully.
Xiong Yujia raised her head, with the corners of her mouth looking up like a smile, and a hint of evil charm in her eyes.
"Do you still remember the story of the snow girl I told you that day?"
Last time, it was said that the snow girl was walking around outside the camp in search of the heartless man, but there was still half of the story left unfinished.
Of course, a long time has passed since the incident, and the heartless man has long since died, but his descendants still exist, and the snow girl remembers the smell of that man.
Once the man discovers the snow girl, he will pursue her as if possessed, running wildly in the snow until he dies of exhaustion.
"How could a person as smart and physically strong as Brother Long not come back for so long?
Either he encountered a danger that he couldn't solve, or he ran too far and didn't have the strength to come back."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar.
I don’t know whether it’s because they lost their backbone for a while and everyone didn’t know what to do. Now that something that is somewhat consistent with reality appears, everyone will believe it. Or it’s because they are trying to explain this series of horrific things and everyone is talking about it.
Only Bai Wenwen sneered, turned around and walked out.
Of course, there is no need to say more about the authenticity of this story. Furthermore, regarding Zhang Long, Bai Wenwen knew that this guy was a pervert, but he always only had her in his heart, and that was enough.
Zhang Xiaotong held his chin.
"But didn't you say before that the woman was in danger while traveling outdoors?
Why did she come all the way to this deserted island for a trip?"
"Moreover, what direct evidence do you have to prove that your story is true and reliable, and what evidence do you have to prove that Zhang Long is the descendant of that man?"
"What century is it now? Don't make any guesses whenever you encounter something you can't figure out. Li Yi will set off to find Zhang Long tomorrow. What is going on? When he comes back, won't the truth be revealed?
"
After saying that, he sighed, shook his head, turned around and walked out.
The few remaining people continued to discuss.
After Bai Wenwen went out, she didn't know what happened, but accidentally came to Zhang Long's room.
Looking at the dirty clothes in the room that had not yet been cleaned up and the cups that were crumpled and thrown in the corner, and smelling Zhang Long's scent lingering in the air, Bai Wenwen felt her nose sore for a moment.
She believed in Zhang Long, but she didn't know why, she just felt a little sad.
Looking at everything in this house, I suddenly felt a little ridiculous.
It's obvious that the two of them have been married for such a long time, and it's obvious that she has accepted Zhang Long and wants to follow that man for the rest of her life, but why does she still maintain that reserve and not live with him?
If the two of them had lived together before this incident happened, she would have definitely seen something when Zhang Long suddenly ran out of the room.
Even a wild rabbit.
This will not make everyone feel like headless flies. They can only wait until the weather improves tomorrow and Li Yi goes out to look for people.
I don’t know whether time passed too quickly or the weather changed too quickly. In just a moment, the sky became dark. The strong wind made the tree house sway unsteadily, and the oil lampstand hanging in the room also swayed.
It swings left and right to make a crunching sound.
Under the dim light, Bai Wenwen tidied up the room.
I don't know if Bai Wenwen was hallucinating or if there was really someone outside the door, but Bai Wenwen heard a knock on the door.
The voice was neither urgent nor slow, as if the blizzard outside had not affected her at all.
"Who?"
Bai Wenwen opened the door.
A woman wearing a floral skirt and waist-length hair was standing not far away, with her back turned to her. This woman's skin was white, and she stepped on the snow with her bare feet.
"Who are you……"
Bai Wenwen looked at this woman carefully.
But the woman didn't answer. She only paused for a few seconds and then kept walking forward.
Looking at this woman, Bai Wenwen's mind flashed back to the story of the Snow Girl she heard told by Xiong Yujia in the big kitchen.
She didn't believe that there really was a snow girl in this world, but she couldn't explain the woman she saw in front of her.
In this season where water turns to ice, how can someone wear only a summer floral skirt and walk on the snow with bare feet as if strolling?
etc!
There are no footprints on the road she walked!
Bai Wenwen's heart was beating fast, and she rushed into the big kitchen without thinking.
At this time, everyone who was chatting dispersed. She grabbed the bag she had prepared for Li Yi and the trekking pole placed at the door and chased out.
She knew that Zhang Long must have been lured away by this woman, and she was the one who knocked on the door just now.
Sure enough, the woman looked at each other and stood there as if waiting for her. After Bai Wenwen arrived, she slowly walked outside the camp.
Bai Wenwen followed the woman closely, letting the icy cold wind whistle in her ears.
That woman is getting further and further away, but she seems to be shining in this darkness, guiding Bai Wenwen forward like a lighthouse.
Looking at this woman, Bai Wenwen's mind went blank, and she just kept walking forward with muscle memory, like a walking zombie.
The footprints she left on the snow-white ground were quickly covered up by the snow, as if no one had been there.
