Chapter 253: In the Blizzard
Threatened by the flames, the snow monkeys began to flee in all directions. Zou Xuan looked at these snow monkeys, and his eyes suddenly lit up!
Zou Xuan laughed excitedly, and the sudden reaction made the others a little overwhelmed!
Even Wei Xi couldn't figure out what Zou Xuan was laughing at: "Hey! You're not going to be stupid by these snow monkeys, are you? ”
"Guys, I think I already know a clue about Sims!" Zou Xuan pointed to his southwest direction, his expression was full of confidence!
"What's going on?" Emma was the first to stand up, expressing her doubts.
"yes!" Dawn nodded. "Brother Zou, how are you sure?"
Although the rest of Han Bingxiao and Ben arrived home, they didn't say anything, but their expressions were also very curious to know Zou Xuan's answer.
Zou Xuan asked everyone to take a closer look to see how this direction is different from other directions!
"Hmm......" Stupid thought for a moment, and then said what he found: "It seems that the snow monkey is the only one who has not fled in this direction!" ”
Zou Xuan smiled: "That's right! Usually the fleeing beasts will choose a place that they are more familiar with, or safer. The snow monkeys live here, unrestrained, and there are few places that pose a threat to them, except for ......"
Emma immediately understood what Zou Xuan meant, and she almost exclaimed: "Unless there's something not quite right in that direction!" For example, Sims is there! ”
"Hmmm! Maybe not, though, but at least there's something weird in that direction! Zou Xuan waved his hand and said to everyone: "Let's try!" ”
Although Zou Xuan said that his judgment was not completely accurate, this time everyone believed Zou Xuan's guess.
They have a different way of thinking from Zou Xuan, who speculates according to the instincts of animals, while others, as a player, think according to the design of the game.
This idea was first put forward by Han Bingxiao: "The system can't let us look for an NPC in this ice and snow without prompting!" Otherwise, we'll have to rely on Mon to find this guy named Sims! ”
The crowd nodded.
Han Bingxiao continued: "This is tantamount to a gamble, if you guess wrong, you will probably be frozen to death!" So I'd rather trust the system to give you some hints! Perhaps the appearance of these snow monkeys is a hint in itself! ”
With Zou Xuan's discovery, Han Bingxiao's further reasoning is added. Everyone decided to head southwest, and the main reason why no one questioned it was that no one was able to come up with new clues! At the moment, when there is only one clue, you can only bet this time!
Zou Xuan and the five began to move towards the southwest of the Cold Snow Plateau.
As the wind and snow deepened, the wind and snow became heavier and heavier, and it became more and more difficult for the team to move forward. Fortunately, I didn't encounter any other monsters along the way. In such a cold winter, there really won't be too many people passing through here!
After walking for about fifteen minutes, when the team members were almost about to give up, Wei Xi, who was floating in mid-air, suddenly saw rows of huts in the distance!
He quickly told Zou Xuan the news: "Hey! What do I see? ”
"Where?" Zou Xuan's whole body sank, and he asked excitedly.
"Right in front of us!"
Wei Xi turned on the Six Senses, Zou Xuan took a look, and sure enough, there was something ahead! But I can't see it very clearly!
"Everyone! There seems to be something to be found ahead, let's hurry over! ”
Although Zou Xuan said this, everyone's enthusiasm was still not mobilized, and now all the people have frozen, this terrible wind and snow can not only freeze people's bodies, but also destroy people's will!
Fortunately, no one has fallen, but the current situation can only be said to be okay at this point!
Zou Xuan estimated that with everyone's current speed, I am afraid that they will not be able to reach that suspicious place in the remaining ten minutes, not that it is far away, but that everyone's movement is now like a snail crawling.
"Dawn!" Zou Xuan asked, "Do you still have incendiary bombs there?" ”
Dawn lowered his head and checked his backpack: "There is not much, there is only one left!" ”
"Use it!!"
"Do what?" Dawn was a little puzzled, he turned his stiff neck, and tried to look around, but found that there was no snow monkey.
Zou Xuan explained: "To keep everyone warm, we have to raise enough energy to rush over in one go!" ”
"Okay!"
Dawn shuddered and took out the incendiary bomb that everyone was looking forward to, he threw it to a place that was not too far away from him, the reason why it was like this was really helpless, and now he couldn't throw it far at all!
Watching the grenade burst into warm flames, Dawn was thinking at the moment: "If there is a snow monkey attacking at this time, I'm afraid everyone will really be powerless to resist!" ”
The flames began to burn and began to expand!
This pile of flames was like a life-saving straw for everyone, and I saw that a few people who were originally frozen immediately rushed to the flames at a lightning speed!
The heat of the roasted face has become so warm at this time, it feels like bathing in the sun on the beach!
"Whew!" Zou Xuan also came to the fire and exhaled very happily: "I really want to jump into the flames now!" ”
Everyone chuckled, and under the frozen faces, everyone's smiles were slightly weird.
Just when everyone was in a slightly better mood, a storm suddenly hung up. "Woo~~~~ Whew!"
The wind rushed over like a thousand horses, whistling!
All of them were swept down by the wind, and when they looked at the flames released by the incendiary bombs of the dawn, they were swept away by the wind!
The wind comes and goes fast. It took less than a minute to blow. But it took away all hope.
Zou Xuan got himself out of the snowdrift, looked at the burned open space, and smacked his lips, not to mention how uncomfortable the feeling in his heart was.
Looking at other people's reactions, there is almost no big difference from Zou Xuan!
Zou Xuan said helplessly to everyone in a heavy and slightly hoarse voice: "Okay, I hope everyone has recovered." Let's hurry up! ”
The body that had just recovered seemed to have become much more delicate, and it had begun to be unable to adapt to the invasion of the blizzard, but the body did seem to have recovered somewhat, and everyone's movements had changed, but the good times did not last long, and everyone could not move after almost five minutes!!
And this time the situation is even worse than before, but because of the long road, the suspicious building can now be clearly seen. That's a row of wooden houses! The chimney on the roof of the hut is still smoking!
This shows that there are definitely people inside! But the crowd really couldn't move one more step forward, and the first team member finally couldn't hold it anymore and fell headlong into the snowdrift.........
The one who fell was Emma, and perhaps the girls themselves were weaker than the boys. But now it doesn't seem to matter who fell first.
It was just the beginning, and soon the second team member also fell. followed by the third person, the fourth person, and finally even Han Bingxiao fell!
"Hey!" Wei Xi kept calling in Zou Xuan's ear. However, although Zou Xuan did not faint, his eyes had begun to blur.
It's a terrible situation! With the fall of the team members, the entire team has almost been declared dead!
I don't know how long it took, but Zou Xuan felt that his HP began to decline continuously. Although only 1HP is lost at a time, when the body is unable to move, there is almost no difference between dropping 1 point at a time and dropping 10 points at a time, and the only difference is the difference between dying early and dying later.
Suddenly, Zou Xuan felt that his body was moved by something! "Could it be a snow monkey? Or is it some other monster? Zou Xuan guessed in his heart, but he soon felt his mouth pry open again, and then a warm liquid slid down his throat and into his stomach. The stomach started to feel warm, and then it became piping hot again! Then, Zou Xuan saw a blurred figure, and then, Zou Xuan completely lost consciousness......
……
"Ahh Zou Xuan, who let out an exclamation, sat up suddenly. It was a blur, but it wasn't snow, it looked like it was in a small cabin. Not only that, but it's very warm, which is definitely not what it feels like to be in the snow.
"Oh? Are you up? ”
A gentle female voice sounded beside Zou Xuan, this voice definitely didn't come from Wei Xi, Wei Xi couldn't have such a gentle voice!
Zou Xuan turned his head in the direction of the voice and saw a kind woman smiling at him. Now that Zou Xuan's eyesight had gradually recovered, he looked at the kind woman in front of him. The woman was about thirty or forty years old, with long brown and black hair tied up in a lock and hanging down in front of her left shoulder. She squinted kindly, and a smile hung on her lips throughout.
Zou Xuan noticed that there was a strong man standing not far behind her.
Without waiting for Zou Xuan to look at the man, the man snorted coldly: "Is the screaming very powerful, it doesn't seem to be a big deal." ”
The muscular man was dressed in a white vest, revealing his muscular muscles, his gray hair, his gray beard, but the most obvious was a scar on the man's face. This scar runs from the bottom up, from the corner of the right mouth to the left eyebrow bone, which is very terrifying! Such an injury can be said to be fatal!
To be able to stand here with such a scar and still be alive is already beyond the level of the so-called 'man's medal'!
Looking at this man, Zou Xuanxiang couldn't help but guess what kind of monster had left him so hurt!
While Zou Xuan sighed in her heart, the woman smiled again: "You are really lucky, if your pet hadn't notified Sims in time, I'm afraid you would have frozen to death outside!" ”
Sims!?
Zou Xuan's whole body trembled, this name made him forget to hesitate
"Sims? Where is he? And my companions...... Are they okay? ”
Zou Xuan asked the woman in a trembling voice.
I saw the scarred man behind the woman gradually walking over. "I'm Sims! And your companions are all fine now, they are in other rooms, you are still very weak, get a good night's sleep! ”
"I ......" Zou Xuan was about to say something, but was interrupted by Sims with a loud shout.
"I know what you're trying to say, but the most important thing for you right now is to rest!" Sims sighed: "I've also experienced what happened to you, if you can't sleep, it's better to lie down." The main thing is to let the body relax. ”
At this time, the woman gently helped Zou Xuan down and let Zou Xuan lie on the bed again. "Sims is right, you have a good rest. Oh, and my name is Martha! ”
Hearing both of them say this, Zou Xuan also lay down obediently, indeed he felt that his body was still very weak. The body doesn't seem to have recovered from the frost!
Sims nodded in satisfaction. I saw him leaning down and whispering something in Martha's ear. I saw Martha patting Zou Xuan's body, and then said with a smile: "The two of us will go to see your companion first, and you can rest here." ”
With that, the two got up and left the room. At this moment, only Zou Xuan was left in the room...... And Wei Xi!
Zou Xuan couldn't sleep in bed, so he asked Wei Xi what happened: "Wei Xi, what's going on?" Just now Sims said it was my pet who saved us? ”
"It's Ash." Wei Xi said: "It was he who saved everyone. ”
"Is that him?" Zou Xuan was a little surprised: "I remember that he fell before me, and he was also frozen at that time. How did he do it? ”
"Overdrive!" Wei Xi's words woke up Zou Xuan!! "At that time, you had already started to suffer from frostbite damage, and Ash was the first to hang up. After his death, he quickly came back to life and his body was restored to its best condition. He rushed to the house as fast as he could, found rescuers, and finally saved you! ”
"I see! Looks like a good thank you to him. Zou Xuan suddenly thought that Xiao Ash was not here, and immediately asked, "By the way, where did he go?" ”
"Next door, eat again!"
Zou Xuan lay quietly on the bed, and after about ten minutes, the door was opened. Martha walked in from the outside.
Zou Xuan looked sideways at Martha, then sat up from the bed again.
"How? Are you feeling better? Martha smiled.
"It should be totally good!" Zou Xuan seemed to be trying to prove himself, and moved his arm. "Well, now it's certain, it's good!"
"Huh." Martha was amused by Zou Xuan, and the smile of a mature woman was always elegant and charming.
Martha walked up to Zou Xuan and pinched the muscles on Zou Xuan's arm with her hand: "Hmm! The adventurers are indeed very strong. Looks like you're really totally good! ”
Hearing Martha say this, Zou Xuan looked very happy. "So I can go down to the ground."
"Of course." Martha laughed.
Zou Xuan got out of bed and asked, "So, what about my companions?" ”
"I'm here to tell you that your companions have recovered. Now Sims wants me to take you to the restaurant, and he knows you're looking for him! Martha said, "We've prepared the meal, and we can eat and talk at the same time!" ”
Following Martha, Zou Xuan walked out of his room. I found that there was a long corridor outside the room, with rooms on one side and a row of windows on the other. ...
