Chapter 61 The Man Under the Ice
"No!" I wiped away my tears and looked into Gu Yi's eyes, "Because of this, I want to become stronger. It is precisely because I also—— that I can't bear to be a useless person who only hides behind you .”
Gu Yi and I walked through the collapsed stone piles with support, but fortunately there was no further collapse along the way.Squeeze through the gap, which is the stone road where the fight happened just now.
Half of the stone path collapsed, blocked by a big stone in the middle, and we had to turn over the stone.
I headed into it, just about to reach out to give Gu Yi a hand, but I didn't expect that a few big rocks fell down from above with a bang, and the gap was tightly blocked.
This was too much, and I started to feel cold behind my back.Yes, I said I want to become stronger, but God, you don’t want to test me immediately like this, you have to give me time to grow up!
"Mu Feng—" I vaguely heard Gu Yi shouting from the other side, "Are you injured?"
"No, How about you"
"I—I'm fine."
It's okay -- it's just not great.Originally, I expected the person who kicked me to death three times to show his supernatural power, but it seemed impossible.I pushed the stone hard, and the huge stone was stuck tightly, and there was no way for a person to move it.
"Mu Feng, you step back."
"Ah."
Sure enough, Gu Yi's impact did not reopen the gap, and gravel continued to fall.
"Don't move—" I yelled, "I'll go to Li Keqing and the others to push this stone away."
"no--"
"Don't talk." I ignored his dissuasion, "Even if I wait here, I can't avoid running into them. The retreat is blocked, so I can only go forward. You wait for me here, I will Come back when you find them. Don't worry, there is still Jiyu, she said that I must be kept alive, and I will be fine."
"You stay here for me!"
I ignored Gu Yi's words, turned my head and ran deep into the passage.When I came to the slope I saw just now, the slope was very steep. I squatted down and slid down.
The biting cold hit me in bursts, and I shivered from the cold. The slope was not over yet, and suddenly my toes hit a raised stone, and I couldn't stabilize myself and rushed forward. I rolled and fell down.Urgently protecting my head and cervical spine, I turned my body sideways as much as possible to let the arms and legs bear the impact.
This fall was not light. When I landed, half of my body was paralyzed and I couldn't move. After taking a breath, I tried to move my wrists and ankles.Getting up from the ground, I felt that the nose and mouth were cold. At first, I thought it was because the environment was too cold, and the breath I exhaled was frozen. After I touched it, I realized that I probably hit my nose, and my hands and face were covered with blood. Feel nasal pantothenic acid.
I wiped it casually with my sleeve, and I propped myself up to get up. The surrounding area was like an ice cellar. As far as I could see, the walls were all thick with ice, and the ice holes were connected, densely packed like a honeycomb, with no track to follow at all.
In this kind of place, why is the underground an ice cave, and the temperature of the first few floors is normal, and suddenly this floor is cold.Doesn't it mean that the closer to the center of the earth, the hotter it is?Doesn't play by common sense at all.But thanks to these ice layers, traces of the people in front of them were left behind.And I also found some obvious marks, maybe Li Keqing and the others wanted to leave marks to distinguish the road, in short, these traces have obvious signs.
I try my best to distinguish what these signs mean. If it is something like "bears are infested, please walk carefully on this road", I will be dumbfounded if I still rush in.I leaned against the ice surface, staring wide-eyed to distinguish, but found that there was more than one mark.Among them, the relatively new imprint is a simple arrow with two words written on the top of the arrow, which I can't understand.Next to the arrow, there is a not so obvious trace, it seems that the engraved time is some distance from the present.
It's the double infinity symbol, the notch is already very shallow, so I can distinguish it clearly after pasting it. Just when I was about to look back, I found that it was not just a mark, there was something behind the ice layer!
It's a pair of eyes!The symbol was carved between those eyes, staring at me through the thin layer of ice.The sudden startle jerked me away from the ice and stopped there.Although I can't see the specific appearance clearly, and I don't have any movements, I can clearly feel that the thing is alive, although this idea is absolutely unreasonable.
After staying for a while, I bravely approached again. The "person" under the ice still maintained the same posture, leaning forward, only his face was close to the ice.The face was covered with dark black scales, no nose, only two black holes at the nostrils, and unusually prominent browbones. It was said to be someone's facial features, but they didn't know what they were.
Maybe it's not that Li Keqing and the others didn't discover it, but that this thing has been frozen in the ice layer and won't have any effect.I gradually relaxed and walked in the direction pointed by the arrow.Because of the discovery, I paid special attention to the marks on the ice layer, and found that there are many double infinity symbols high and low on the ice layer, without any extra, there is a frozen person under each symbol.
The first possibility I thought of was actually a place where a high-tech scientific research institute freezes specimens, but how did the ice freeze so thickly here?The Ming Dynasty should not have this technology.
Following the marks, I walked into the depths of the cave, and the space became more and more open as it went deeper, but I gradually discovered something was wrong.
The people under the ice layer are closer to the ice surface one by one, and there is no difference when you look at them one by one, but compared with the first one you saw at first, the face of the frozen person now is more and more clear. The scales are clearly identifiable, and two horns can be seen growing on their heads.The limbs are human limbs, and some arms are stretched forward, as if trying to crawl out.
It's okay, I comforted myself, it's impossible to break through such a thick layer of ice with bare hands.What's more, if you are frozen in here, you will lose consciousness in half an hour, and at most half a day will be hopeless.
It's just that being stared at by those eyes is more or less scary. In order not to miss the mark and not to stay too far away from the ice layer, it is really a kind of torture.
But it didn't take long for reality to break my fluke mentality.I rubbed my eyes to make sure I wasn't hallucinating from the low temperature.
OMG, it’s really not, there are some sharp things protruding from the ice, and more and more, they are the claws of frozen people.Is it going to drill out further down?I am hesitant to move forward, not to go, not to go.
So far I haven't found any trace of Li Keqing and the others, and my limbs are numb from the cold, and I rely entirely on perseverance to survive. Maybe it won't be long before I fall asleep on the ground.what to do?I must make a decision now.
