Chapter 247: Ice Lake Chapter 247: Ice Lake
The driver didn't get down in the driver's seat, and he was still wrapped in a big padded jacket, this brother obviously came prepared, but a few of us weren't, I only wore a thin sweater and a single jacket at the bottom of the mountain, and now I was shivering with cold.
The woman in the leather skirt was even more sad, her face was blue from the cold, and the breath we exhaled became a cloud of white gas, and it is estimated that the temperature is now above zero.
The bluestone steps were steep and the road was very narrow, and a few of us walked on the front and back feet, and at a high altitude, I could clearly feel that my breathing was a little difficult.
It felt like a long time, as if we had been walking in the sky, through the clouds, and we finally reached the end of the steps.
In front of him was a huge frozen lake, the water was extremely deep, and it had formed a mirror surface under the action of cold air.
This ice lake is at the highest point of the White Mountain, and the surrounding mountains are surrounded by a circle, like a huge basin, but I didn't expect that there is a huge ice lake on the top of this White Mountain.
There are no people on the mountain, and we are a little puzzled, could it be that the lake in front of us is the exam question, but how will the exam question come out?
There was a stone house by the lake, and a few of us walked in and saw an old man sitting cross-legged in the middle of the house, his eyes closed, quiet like a sculpture.
"Here we go!" I didn't see the old man move his lips, but an old voice appeared.
This voice seems to have come from ancient times, but it has a return to the ear.
A few of us looked at each other, could it be that this person was our last round examiner?
But looking at this man's appearance, he is very different from the deacons who gave us questions before.
The old man raised a hand slightly, which was like a shriveled branch, and pointed to the ice lake in front of him.
"What's inside?" The old man asked us.
He asked us what was inside the lake? The four of them looked at each other, and the last round of exam questions finally came out, but it was even more outrageous.
The arrogant brother who has always been calm is also a little calm, the ice lake in front of him is hundreds of meters deep, who can know what is inside?
The old man had four notes in front of him, and he tapped some of them, and said to us, write your answers on them.
Everyone walked out with a note, and the ice lake was so deep that the ghost knew what was inside.
I stepped to the side and stared at the frozen lake in front of me, really not paying much attention in my heart, standing there in a daze, knowing that my eyes were staring at sourness.
Somehow, just as I was staring at the ice lake, a tear actually squeezed out of the corner of my eye,
Why did I cry, so I stared at the ice lake a few times in a daze, and I always felt that I knew the scene in front of me.
By the way, I did see the scene in front of me.
When I came back from Sheung Shui Village, I carried with me a portrait of Widow Ho, which had drifted into the tomb where the Nanmu coffin and the female corpse were buried, and I had the illusion of a frozen lake.
The ice lake at that time was exactly the same as the one in front of me, except that I was in the ice lake, attached to the female corpse, and took out a sharp knife and stabbed myself.
I couldn't help but feel excited, and suddenly I had a bold idea, could it be that the female corpse I was looking for was under this ice lake.
In that case, wouldn't I have found the corpse of the woman I had been looking for?
Thinking of this, I was so excited that I wanted to jump on the water all at once, but I knew that I couldn't be impulsive, what if I broke it?
I still had to think about it in the long run, and to suppress my excitement, I picked up the brush and hurriedly wrote four words on the slip of paper, "The female corpse in red!" ”
I don't know what the other three people wrote, the four of them handed in the note, and after the old man read it, his lips actually trembled, and he raised his loose eyelids and stared at me, and the light that came out of his cloudy eyes actually emanated.
He picked up the brush beside him, dipped it in the red ink in front of him, and drew a circle on the top of my forehead.
He raised his shriveled arm again and said to us in that hoarse voice, "Down the mountain!" ”
The big dragon tattoo couldn't stop when he heard this, "Hey, old man, what's the matter with you?" What is the result, why hasn't it been announced yet, so let's go down the mountain! ”
Brother Arrogant went up and grabbed the wrist of the big dragon tattoo, "Okay, I already know the result, so don't jump around here!" ”
may have suffered a dislocation before, and the big dragon tattoo was no longer stunned, and it retreated in a gray manner.
"Did this kid guess right?" The big dragon tattoo is somewhat unconvinced.
Brother Arrogant turned around and said two words out of his mouth, "Go!" ”
"That's it?" The big dragon tattoo is still a little unwilling.
As she spoke, the girl in the leather skirt suddenly leaned back and fell to the ground.
The face of the girl in the leather skirt was completely different from just now, she was bruised from the cold just now, and now it turned red.
I put my hand on the forehead of the girl in the leather skirt, it was very hot, and I quickly said to the arrogant brother, "She has a fever!" ”
Isn't it, I wore less clothes and experienced altitude sickness, and I couldn't bear it as a big man, let alone a weak woman.
Seeing this, the arrogant brother took the pulse of the girl in the leather skirt, "No, you have to take her down the mountain quickly!" ”
"Huh? Is it so serious? ”
"Her breath is very weak now, if it is delayed, I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on!"
The arrogant brother turned to the old man and said, "Farewell!" ”
The old man nodded slightly and made a light gesture.
Brother Arrogant picked up the girl in the leather skirt, a few of us walked out of the stone house, Brother Arrogant pulled the big dragon tattoo over, "You, carry him on your back!" ”
The big dragon tattoo didn't dare to refuse, and put the woman in the leather skirt on his back, but as soon as he got on his body, he fell and stumbled.
The big dragon tattoo knelt on the ground and said to the arrogant brother, "Brother, it's really not that I don't care, it's so high here, I have to walk hard, you are asking me to carry a person, I, my body is really unbearable!" ”
I know that the big dragon tattoo is a thing, when I boarded it just now, except for the arrogant brother, several of us were all panting, where can we still carry someone.
Brother Arrogant lit a cigarette, turned the lighter several times before lighting it, and glanced at the big dragon tattoo, "Then what do you say?" ”
The big dragon tattoo said to the arrogant brother, "Brother is so powerful, either you can help and carry this woman down!" ”
The arrogant brother didn't even look at the big dragon tattoo and didn't answer.
The dragon tattoo then turned to me and said to me with a smile on his face, "Or this brother, you can do me a favor!" ”
Hey, this person really makes me speechless, how thick-skinned this is, yesterday he united with this leather skirt girl to frame me in front of Venerable Ye, and now he is embarrassed to beg me here.
But to be honest, it's not that I don't want to help, no matter how good it is, I can't watch this woman die, it's just that with my own physical strength, it's hard to go down, let alone carrying a big living person on my back?
The girl in the leather skirt was lying on the ground muttering to herself, muttering some nonsense in her mouth, and her mind was no longer clear.
The big dragon tattoo stared at the girl in the leather skirt for a few moments, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said to me and the arrogant brother, "Since no one is by her, it's better to put her here!" ”
The big dragon tattoo means to leave this girl in a leather skirt behind, this person is too sinister children, these two people were still ** yesterday, why is it like this today, it seems that the friendship on this bed is really fragile.
Brother Arrogant glanced at the big dragon tattoo with a look of contempt, "You really don't want to care about her?" I'll be the one to say the ugly thing in front of you, if you throw this woman here, you probably won't be able to survive tonight. ”
Dalong Tattoo knew that he was weak, and hurriedly explained, "Even if you put her here, the people of the Ye family may not care, let's go down first!" ”
This big dragon tattoo is obviously a reason for himself, if he really puts this woman here, who knows if this person will freeze to death.
After the arrogant brother finished smoking, he put the cigarette butt on the ground and twisted it vigorously, and said to me, "Brother, take a hand!" ”
I knew that the arrogant brother meant to let me help him put the girl in the leather skirt on his back, and suddenly my heart rose a little respect.
As the saying goes, it's easier to go up the mountain than to get down, it may be that the water vapor of the glacial lake has condensed a layer of floating frost on the stone steps, and none of us dare to slack off, because if we are not careful, we may roll down the valley.
I finally came to the foot of the mountain and found that the off-road vehicle that had pulled us before was gone.
