I was immediately stunned. What speed was this? How could it run so fast? My eyes never left it for a moment, but it disappeared under my eyelids. The veins on my forehead were all there. Jumping wildly, this is definitely an extremely dangerous creature.
"Where is it? Why didn't I see it?" Jiao Ba looked around and asked a little confused.
"I didn't see it either. Where is that person?" Chang Shan kept looking in the direction of my finger, but the place was already empty.
"Disappeared, it disappeared in an instant. I couldn't see how he ran away at all. Before, it was a nearly transparent figure, almost the same color as the city wall. If it weren't for me From this angle, I think I still can't see it."
I took a big breath, feeling a little tight in my chest, and even my head started to hurt. I must have looked very bad at this time. I pressed my temples with my hands. I don’t know why, but I always get headaches recently.
"It didn't run away at all, it might still be up there." Chang Shan stared at the urn city above and said coldly.
"Huh? It's still up there? Damn it, I'll shoot it down." The big man said, holding the rifle and about to shoot.
Chang Shan held down the muzzle of his gun and said, "Calm down, don't be so impulsive. That thing is probably an ice demon. You don't know where it is hiding. Shooting will only waste bullets. "
"Then what should we do?" Shunzi asked.
Chang Shan took one last look at the top of the urn and said, "Don't worry about it. Let's keep moving forward. When it's time to come out, it will naturally find us."
After we walked through Wengcheng, what appeared in front of us was a wide ice continent, with ancient houses and buildings on both sides. The two-story ancient buildings were usually used for inns, pharmacies, or Pawn shop, but the only difference is that these ancient buildings are all almost transparent in color. It is obvious that these buildings are also made of ice.
This is actually an ice city, which none of us expected. We did not dare to stop, but continued to walk forward. Although there were houses on both sides, we could never see a single person. The city streets were lifeless, nothing could be seen.
There was no wind or fog, everything was still. I couldn't hear anything except our footsteps. It was no exaggeration to say that this place was almost like a cemetery, completely silent.
"My mother, where on earth is this? I feel like I have really traveled through time." The big man looked around at us, his face full of confusion.
"I'm a little scared." Tie Mian dragged his tired body and said next to me.
"Oh my God, this is an ancient city. Is this the legendary lost ancient city of Loulan?" This Shunzi's thinking is really advanced. He thought this was the lost ancient city of Loulan. His imagination is so rich.
"You are really ridiculous. This is not the ancient city of Loulan. This is just an ice city, an ancient ice city. Judging from the building architecture, it is more like the buildings of the Ming and Qing dynasties. However, this is also a miracle in the world.”< br>
I looked around as I walked. These ancient buildings vary in size. Some even have plaques hanging on them with the names of pawn shops or restaurants. Most of them have four-character plaques. These plaques are also Made of ice, it’s hard to tell without looking carefully.
This is almost a completed city, but this white scene makes people feel very uncomfortable. White represents a symbol of death. People who wear linen and mourn are all made of white cloth, as are the hospital morgues. Covering the body with a white cloth made me feel disgusted.
But at this moment, not long after we walked in, suddenly, snow began to fall in the sky without warning, and what surprised us most was that the snow was actually red, unlike before The scene they encountered was exactly the same. This blood-red snow would disappear if it fell on them or on the ground.
This strange snow is falling all over the city. Red snow spots are floating everywhere, but there is still no wind. I look up at the sky, but I can’t feel the snowflakes falling on my face at all. It’s like an illusion. My body We can't feel it, but the snowflakes can interfere with our vision.
“It’s this weird thing again, but I can’t feel its existence at all, like an image.” I don’t know what it is, but it definitely can’t be snow, an ominous A premonition arises spontaneously, and I feel that danger is getting closer and closer to us.
"This is not a good sign. You'd better be careful, it's extremely dangerous here." Jiao Ba's eyes were moving around, and his head was swinging back and forth.
"Mom, should we find a tavern to have a drink first? Don't waste this great time." The big man still wanted to drink at this time.
Shunzi sneered and said, "You can imagine it, this place is just like a cemetery, there is not even a ghost, and you are still drinking."
"I don't know if these buildings are real or not. They may just be an illusion, an illusion that interferes with ours. Please pay more attention to your surroundings." Chang Shan reminded us.
Everything here is weird and completely unreasonable. It was weird to have such a place on the sea. Now there is an ice city here. This is completely beyond our imagination. Human expectations.
"We've been walking for so long, and we can't even see a ghost. Where are we going to find Mr. Mai and the others?" Shunzi complained, looking very bad.
"Yeah, just walking like this is not an option. Where are Mr. Mai and the others?" The big man couldn't hold it any longer.
Chang Shan stopped at this time and said, "How about we go into the house and search it. Maybe they are hiding somewhere."
"Isn't it? There are so many houses here. If we search one by one, how long will it take to find them?" This is a city. If just a few of us want to search here, it will take years of the monkey and horses and months.
“There is no other way.” Chang Shan looked at me, he was also helpless.
I sighed, thought for a while and said, "Let's divide it into two groups. One group will be responsible for one side and carefully check each room. If we encounter danger, we must find a way to exit. Don’t fight hard.”
Jiao Ba nodded and said, “Okay. , That’s it, we have to find other people quickly.”
We then divided into two groups, the big man and I were wearing iron masks, and Jiao Ba and the others were in a group of three. The big man was in better shape. He and I were wearing iron masks. If we were in danger, at least we could run faster.
The first place the three of us searched was an ancient inn. An ancient inn is the same as a restaurant. Downstairs is the place for eating and drinking, and upstairs are the guest rooms.
The three of us walked in cautiously, and I scanned everything inside. The room was a little dark, with only weak light, so the sight was not very good.
We turned on the strong flashlight and glanced around the door. The tables, stools, stairs, shopkeepers, in short, all the furnishings inside were all translucent white, which proved that everything was also translucent. It's all made of ice and looks like a giant freezer.
Then I made a gesture, meaning to spread out. It would be a waste of time to search together. In order to save effective time, I can only spread out.
The big man nodded, holding the rifle, and went upstairs with Tie Mian. Although it was a dispersed operation, Tie Mian had to have someone follow him. Although the big man was a little more reckless, he was enough. Loyalty and good physique can play a big role in critical moments.
I searched around downstairs, but didn't find anything. There were wine jars downstairs, but they were all made of ice. Anyway, no matter what they were, as long as they could be seen, they were all white. , except white, there is no second color.
This is a lifeless inn, more discreet than a morgue. The cold here is absolutely cold, the kind of cold that goes deep into the bones. Many times I feel like someone is staring at me from behind. .
This feeling is very strong. My intuition tells me that there must be someone behind me, but every time I look back, I can’t see anything. I am almost tortured by this intuition. I was so crazy that I even wondered if I was too nervous.
Where are Mr. Mai and the others? In this huge ice city, looking for them is like looking for a needle in a haystack. There is no certainty at all. I don't know how Li Xin is doing now. I have been worried in my heart and can never calm down.
I planned to go upstairs to have a look. According to the usual practice, the upstairs should be all guest rooms. I stepped on the icy stairs and walked up step by step. The sound of footsteps echoed throughout the space.
This ice staircase is quite strong when I step on it. I have been worried about whether it will collapse. Originally, these things were supposed to be made of wood, but now they are made of ice. It looks really weird.
After I walked upstairs, I shouted first, "Big man, where are you?" In order to ensure safety, I had to know where they were first.
But I waited for a while and didn't hear any answer, so I shouted again, "Big man, Tiemian, where are you?"
"Zhongyi, we are here. "Don't worry, everything is fine." The big man hurriedly walked out of the guest room opposite me and flashed his flashlight at me.
This upstairs is just like our current shopping mall. There is an empty space in the middle, and the guest rooms are located in a circle. I am standing at the top of the stairs, and the big man is on the opposite side of the stairs.
I deliberately shined the flashlight to take a look, and it was indeed the big man himself. After experiencing the previous horrific incident, I didn't dare to be careless anymore. The ice demon can look like anyone, and can also imitate anyone's appearance. sound. Therefore, it must be confirmed. It can only be seen from the appearance. Even if the ice demon turns into a human, its cold body cannot be changed. This is the only way to distinguish the true from the false when the person is not frozen. method.
