Chapter 9: The Abandoned Castle
Although he was one of the first people to come to the chain bridge, Cheng Cheng did not walk on the chain bridge, just like someone walked on the ice later, Cheng Cheng was indifferent, still waiting, watching.
The scene of Mo Heng and several people jumping off the chain bridge and then disappearing, Cheng Xun saw it all, and then she abandoned the chain bridge, walked on the ice, and chased the team that walked in the front.
until close.
As usual, after Cheng Cheng briefly introduced himself, the relevant people also introduced themselves, and they got to know each other a little.
With vigilance, the group walked across the river step by step, occasionally talking about inconsequential matters.
"Look, what is that? Something seems to be moving. Lin Yiyu pushed the left hand of the Tyre Gong and pointed ahead with his finger.
Luo Gong looked ahead, and before he could find anything, he answered, "What." β
At a distance ahead, a fluffy beast could be seen moving, different from the mist in the air, the beast's hair was more snow-white, and it was still more conspicuous if you looked closely.
As we got closer, the appearance of the little beast appeared in front of me, its thick white fur covered its body, its hind paws stood steadily, its front paws interactively probed the ice, and its well-proportioned tail swayed from side to side on the ice, as if it was a mature and energetic cloud cat.
"Meow!"
"It turned out to be a cloud cat. Luo Gong chuckled.
"Meow ......"
The cloud cat was very alert, and when everyone got closer, it quickly took a few dozen steps back, looked cautiously at the comer, and after rubbing its paws with the ice, it finally walked away unwillingly.
Seeing the cloud cat retreat, Cheng Cheng's face was full of surprise, and he excitedly chased in the direction it left.
The speed of the cloud cat was very fast, and Cheng Cheng, who was chasing it, was blurred by the fog after a while, and Cheng Cheng chased the cloud cat with her, but Lin Yiyu and the others came to the place where the cloud cat was limping just now.
"It's a big fish that was frozen, no wonder ......" Luo Luo looked at the ice with a sudden expression.
"Unfortunately, I can't reach it. Lin Yiyu said with a smile, "It's really close in front of you but far away in the sky." β
A few people next to him echoed and smiled, stepping on the ice and moving on.
Didn't go far.
"Meow!"
The screaming sound was approaching, but it was Cheng Cheng who came over with the cloud cat in his arms.
"You really caught it. Quite a few people spoke.
Lin Yiyu looked at Cheng Cheng who came over, and then looked at the cloud cat in her arms, shook his head and said, "Although it's cute, now is not the time to use it as a pet." β
"Pets?"
Cheng Xun didn't know why, but still added, "'Bai Xue' is very alert. β
The cloud cat that had just been "captured" was named by Cheng Cheng.
"Is this little beast's name white snow, it fits its name very well. Someone came up to Cheng Xun and reached out to stroke the snow-white hair on the cloud cat's head.
He looked at Cheng Xun with a smile, completely ignoring whether the cloud cat rejected him or not, and he really didn't know whether he was praising the cloud cat or currying favor with its owner.
"Meow!"
Taking advantage of his inattention, the cloud cat bit the man's little finger hard, revealing a fierce expression and screaming.
When everyone saw this, they laughed.
The man withdrew his hand stupidly, laughed awkwardly, and moved his slightly stiff body.
"I guess I'm hungry. Cheng Cheng chuckled.
In the blink of an eye, Cheng Xun had a soft collar that could be tightened and enlarged and a rope that was not short, and I don't know where she took it out.
After tying the leash to the collar, and then put the collar around the neck of the cloud cat, the adult coriander leads the cloud cat like a pet dog.
There was more than one fish that was frozen, and no, before I had taken two steps, I saw several fish of different sizes that were frozen.
Walking up to one of the frozen fish, which looked small and small, Cheng Cheng stepped down.
"Click!"
A small piece of ice cracked into the shape of a fish, which shows how well the coriander controls the power of emotions, and the original flat ice surface is sunken into a small piece, but there is no water in sight, which shows how thick the ice is.
The fish wrapped in a small amount of ice bounced in front of the cloud cat, and the cloud cat probed off a lot of broken Xiaoice with its front paws, and it seemed that it would soon become a delicacy in its belly.
"Bang!"
There was a live fish that crashed through the shallow ice layer that was concave, and suddenly burst out of the ice, and happened to land on the left front paw of the cloud cat, and the fish's mouth opened and closed, but it was difficult to move a bit.
"Meow. β
As if the eating was disturbed, I saw the cloud cat's front paws slap hard at the live fish that was running on the ice, and the live fish no longer moved, and the open mouth of the fish never closed for a long time.
"Sizzleββ!"
At this moment, a subtle but unignorable sound sounded, and the ice on the entire surface of the river was cracking.
"Meow!" exclaimed, and the cloud cat ran forward with the ice cube fish, as if trying to escape from danger.
In the face of the sudden change situation, Cheng Cheng did not block it, keeping a certain distance and following closely behind the cloud cat.
A few people shouted, "Oh no, let's go!!"
The people scattered as birds and beasts, and each fled to the other side of the river by feeling and luck.
In a hurry, many people turned back, after all, it was too frightening for the ice to crack all at once without warning, no one knew what would happen in the next second, and it was naturally best to be able to go ashore as soon as possible, but these people were also destined to stop here.
I don't know how many sachets are floating on the river, but in this moment, the number has increased a lot.
I don't know who said that it was safer to follow the cloud cat, Lin Yiyu and Luo Gong and his party followed Cheng Cheng, jumping and avoiding all the way.
Not to mention, it's still dangerous.
It's just that the ice broke up too quickly, and soon turned into countless floating ice blocks of different sizes, the large ice cubes were no problem, and some Xiaoice blocks were not enough to support the weight of a person.
Some people walk and disappear.
Those who stepped on small Xiaoice and fell into the river were never seen again, leaving the sachet floating on the water.
Seeing this, Lin Yiyu reminded Luo Luo, "Be careful!"
"Well, let's go faster, who knows what will happen later, it's better to go ashore early. Luo Gong nodded, not pausing for a moment.
After some time.
Maybe it was closer to the other side, or maybe it was meant to be, but the thick fog that filled the river gradually dissipated and soon became invisible.
Before they reached the riverbank, they saw a stone wall.
The stone wall is made up of large stones that are regularly leveled, and the highest point is kept at the same horizontal level, but a single stone wall makes people not see any famous hall.
Walking around the stone wall, you can see that there is more than one such stone wall, but the other stone walls are much shorter in height and in different positions, like a labyrinth, more like an unfinished building, I don't know what the specific role is.
"It looks like an abandoned castle no matter how you look at it. Cheng Xun touched the wall with his hand and said indifferently.
