CHAPTER XLII EMERGENCY Section I.DOUBT
"Little sweetheart wants to wait for me here obediently, and I'll be back as soon as I go to District 3, and then you can decide whether you want to go with me or not."
Pyne sends Kate and Ling out of the cave.
"You, do you really want to take me away? Why? ”
"Because I fell in love with you at first sight, what about you, little sweetheart? Don't you have a crush on me? Kate helped her re-wrap the scarf.
"I, I don't know. But now that it's getting dark, do you have to go now? Ling asked worriedly.
"Because my friend is in a hurry, we want to get Bingxin as soon as possible, and come back to you as soon as possible."
"Well, I'll think about it."
"Hmm. Then go back, it's so cold here, don't freeze you. ”
"Then you have to be careful, the humans in the third area are very bad."
"Don't worry, we'll be careful."
Kate and Ling watched as Kate returned to the cave before leaving.
"Are you serious?" Ling asked.
"I guess so."
"Probably right? Are you not even sure about yourself? ”
"Xiaoling seems to be very concerned about this?"
"Of course! Don't you think she's a ...... I think I was indebted to Rosa at the time, so I want to be nice to Rosa now, have you thought about Juan's feelings? ”
"Xiaoling will also tell me big truths, so unexpected."
"I'm not telling you a big reason, you should have heard about me, I haven't seen that woman since I was born, and I can't talk about any feelings, but this girl is alive, you said that she looks very similar to that person, maybe in my heart I will expect her to be happy."
"Don't you hate Rosa?"
"I said that I had no feelings for her, but I also knew some things about her, and I heard people I used to live with talk about her, saying that she had cut open her stomach with her own hands, and wanted to kill me before I was born, just to prevent me from becoming an experiment in 'paradise', I don't know what she thought at the time, maybe she didn't want me to suffer, or maybe she hated my existence at all, but I was willing to believe that she was for my good."
"I'm sorry Xiaoling...... Then you went through those things. ”
"So, since you have failed that woman, then I don't want to let down the person who looks very similar to that woman."
"Since Xiaoling has said so, I'll be honest, I have somewhat overlapped her with Rosa, but I am also a little excited, I have no resistance to this kind of girl.
But it's true that I want to take her away, she can't live with these wolves all the time, I can go and ask Red Moon, if she doesn't allow it, I'll put her in a safe place. ”
The two talked as they walked, and the snow reflected the moonlight, so that the surroundings would not be too dark.
"At our current speed, we should be able to reach District 3 before dawn. How much do you know about the situation in District 3? Kate asked.
"I don't dare to say how much I know now, because of the unique geographical environment of the third district, people here are very suspicious, and they will not easily trust others. And if the Third District also receives a general order about me, I think it will be difficult for us to even get in.
Moreover, listening to the old wolf's words, the snow mountains in the third district have shown bad signs, and I don't know what the value of the ice heart is to the third district now. Ling voiced her concerns.
"So what do you have planned? How are we going to find Ice Heart? The old wolf just said that Bingxin might be in the snowy mountains, so what is it like? How big? If you want Kaoru to recover, do you need a whole piece or a small piece? Do you want to go back and bring Kaoru with you? ”
"You ask me so much at once, I don't know. Well, let's simply change our clothes and say that we got lost in a blizzard. ”
"Okay."
The two of them walked for an unknown amount of time, but they had already seen several igloos with lights on in front of them.
Arriving at the igloo, Ling and Kate look at each other, and then Ling steps forward and knocks on the door.
After knocking for a while, she heard a noise inside, and Ling took half a step back and waited for the door to open.
"Who?" The door didn't open, but there was a question coming from inside.
"We're lost here, can you give us some hot water?" Ling replied.
"Nope." When he had finished speaking, he saw that the lights in the house had gone out.
Ling looks at Kate.
"Let's go to another house and ask."
…………
I've knocked on four houses, but I haven't opened the door.
There are only about ten igloos lit up here, and if you can't find any news here, you can only go further and go to the third district.
I knocked on two more houses, either pretending that there was no one in the house, or not opening the door.
"No, don't you open the door to us." Kate was a little impatient.
"Let's try again."
"Who?" An old man's voice came from the igloo.
"We got lost here in a snowstorm because it's so cold, can you give us some hot water?" Ling said.
The room was quiet for a while, and when Ling was about to give up, a small gap opened in the door of the igloo, and an old man with an old face leaned out to look at the two people outside the door.
"Did you get lost here?"
"Yes, didn't it blow a lot of snow during the day, so I came here by mistake to avoid the wind and snow."
"Come in, you don't look like bad people, and I don't have anything here, just hot water."
"Thank you so much."
Ling and Kate enter the igloo one after the other. The igloo is small, and three people need to avoid each other when they stand in the room and walk around. There was a tattered bed in the room, a small cupboard next to the bed, on which were the dishes and chopsticks, a fire was lit on the ground, and an iron pot was on the fire, and the liquid in the pot did not look like water, but looked like grease, and in it there were two pieces of boiled white meat.
The old man used the bowl on the table to serve Ling and Kate some broth in the pot.
"Drink it, it will warm your body."
"Thanks, this is?" Ling asked.
"It's the only thing we can eat right now." The old man sighed.
Ling sniffed the broth in the bowl and glanced at Kate, both of them took a small sip, and a fishy smell filled their mouths with an indescribable fishy smell.
"What is this?" Kate put down the bowl in her hand and ran out of the igloo and threw up outside.
Ling also felt nauseous, but not as strongly as Kate.
"Outsiders can't get used to this taste, but this broth can warm people's bodies." The old man seemed to have known that the two of them would vomit after eating.
"Excuse me, as far as I know, the third arrondissement is not what it is now, and you seem to be having a hard time? Aren't there no aliens here? And didn't the Hunters' Association and the World Government also issue items? Ling really can't drink that broth.
"The dozen or so families living here are waiting to fend for themselves. These people are all sick, and there is a shortage of medicine in the main area, and those of us who are old and immortal are put in to die. ”
"How so?"
"You two didn't get lost here, they should be going to the third district, right?"
Ling and Kate looked at each other.
"My old man has lived at such an age, and he still has the ability to see people."
"Then I won't hide it from your old man, we do have something to go to the third district, but it is also true that we encountered a snowstorm, we finally came here, we were already very tired, so we wanted to find a place to rest, but we knocked on the doors of several houses, and everyone was unwilling to help us, only you were willing to let us in, uncle."
"Don't blame the people here, everyone is just more suspicious, and I'm not qualified to say that all the people here are good, but the third district has entered its final time."
"Why? Is something happening here in District 3? ”
