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 due to some strange combination of circumstances, they failed several times. Ancestors bless me, I hope Mai Lao and the others can turn their bad luck into something good."
The big man suddenly interrupted and said, "Li Xin, actually before I met you. , Zhongyi and I met the ice demon. The ice demon turned into you and was later injured by us. When Zhongyi went out to chase it, he saw you. At that time, I almost wanted to attack you. Shoot, if Zhongyi hadn't stopped me all the time, I might have accidentally killed you. This must have been a plan of the Ice Demon. "I didn't expect that this big man could analyze things.
Li Xin looked at me with gentle eyes again, and I said a little embarrassed, "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 exactly what she knew. Anyway, seeing that Li Xin was safe and sound, I felt relieved. As for Jenny, I guess she doesn’t need to worry about her too 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 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."< br>
"Then get ready to go, big man, you're the one who will bear the iron man's back." This task must be given to him.
"Huh? 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, and everyone's guns were replaced with bullets, but We don't have much bullets in our hands now, almost half of them have been consumed. It seems like this place is worse than I expected. We haven't gone very far on the road and the ammunition is almost running out. This 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. It was not very far from the previous brothel. We were still there. Fortunately, during the rest period, the ice demons did not come to visit us. If they suddenly appeared at that time, we might not be able to escape unscathed.
The sky outside is still gloomy. There is no sunshine inside. The sky and the ground are the same color, both white, but the sky is closer to gray. Sometimes it is even difficult for me to distinguish the sky from the ground. Wow, this is a place that can easily lead to misunderstandings.
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? 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?" I stopped and looked up at the gray 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."< br>
We walked along the street. There was no cold wind or fog. Except for the falling red snowflakes, the surroundings were quiet. This tranquility was like a prelude to the coming storm. It's extremely disturbing.
The whole city is dead silent. I can't feel the breath of any 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 clear 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, we 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, observing the surroundings from time to time. Everyone's expressions were stern, and they all held 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 were swinging their heads back and forth, always on the best alert.
Li Xin has been 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 were sometimes teasing. As for Menzi, no matter how dangerous it is, he 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 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, before Li Xin turned around and called me, "Zhongyi, why are you so dazed? Go quickly."
I responded. I made a sound 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, "Lao Ba, Brother Chang Shan, what's wrong with you? It's been all this way, and you haven't even said a word."
Jiao Ba stopped and looked. Look at me and say, "What do you want us to say?"
I said casually, "You can say anything, it's better than not saying a word at all. It feels like a bunch of dead people, with no life at all."
"You are the dead person. "What's there to say?" Jiao Ba glared at me and said.
"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 that everyone’s mentality is too heavy. Look at them, everyone is He looks nervous, which consumes a lot of energy. "
People's mentality is very important. If the nerves are always tense, it may be effective in the short term, but over time, the person's body will deteriorate. It will be unbearable, and the fatigue rate will be much faster than normal. It is an overload operation. Once you really encounter trouble, you will easily make mistakes.
"But." As soon as Li Xin opened her mouth, her words got stuck. Her face, which was still smiling at first, turned gloomy in an instant. She looked behind me with frightened eyes and started to breathe. Urgent.
I immediately felt waves of cold air coming from behind me. Could it be the Ice Demon standing behind me? I still forced myself to ask, "Hey, hey, what's wrong with you? Are you talking?"
Li Xin looked at me, slowly stretched out her hand, pointed to the front and said, "Behind you, behind you There is something. "
I glanced at her, clenched the gun in my hand, and turned around. About ten meters behind me, there was a white wolf staring at me. The beast's eyes glowed faintly blue.
It didn't move, just 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, and there was no one around. Among the other white wolves, he was the only one. It seemed that he wanted 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 thing 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 no matter how I kill them?
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’s definitely not a good intention.
No matter, let's kill it first. Just when I was about to shoot, suddenly, a "bang" gunshot passed by my ear. The white wolf started very quickly. When the gunfire rang out, it ran away immediately. I didn't even see 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 so dazed?" Jiao Ba finally said something useful.
I shook my head and said, "Oh, it's okay, I just don't understand, why does the white wolf follow us all the way?"
"Never mind him, if he dares to come again, I will kill him with one shot." The tall man held a rifle in his hand and said with a big grin. "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.
