Chapter 42: Burial at Sea
In the middle of the night, Mia woke up from a nightmare with a scream. Mia dreams that she is rowing an inflatable boat, as if her whole body is out of control, and she involuntarily rows the inflatable boat to the other side of Iceland. Mia remembers very well what is on the other side of Iceland, but she just can't stop. In her dreams, Mia watched as the inflatable boat slowly approached the corpses in the mountain wall. At this time, Mia panicked and wanted to close her eyes. But even the eyelids are not controlled. Suddenly! Mia saw the corpse move, and the corpse beckoned to Mia. Both hands of the corpse's ice wall beckoned Mia. Mia saw the bow of the boat hit the corpse's legs, and a strange scene happened, the bow of the boat disappeared into the corpse's legs. The inflatable boat was still slowly approaching the corpse, slowly disappearing in front of the corpse's legs. Mia looked at the bodies that were getting closer and closer, and wanted to scream in fright. But he couldn't make a sound. Mia saw that she was about to crash into the corpse, and struggled desperately in fear. Mia felt like she was wrapped in soft glue, unable to move no matter how she struggled. Seeing that the corpse was already close in front of her, Miya struggled frantically in fear, and at the moment when she was about to touch the corpse, Mia pushed with all her strength and blurted out a scream. Mia woke up from her dream. Xingyu, who was sleeping next to him, was also woken up. Heung-woo was in a deep sleep when he suddenly heard Mia's terrible scream. Xingyu was frightened and immediately opened his eyes and bounced up, turning to look at Mia. Miya also saw Xingyu looking at her, looking at the blue lips and white Xingyu who was frightened by the screams. Mia asked strangely, "Do you have nightmares?" Xingyu almost vomited blood: "Who the hell is having nightmares!" ”
Only then did Mia realize that it was her scream that scared Xingyu awake. Mia immediately felt hot on her face, blushed and said embarrassedly, "It's me having a nightmare." ”
"Holy! Nightmares can be so earth-shattering! I was so scared that I thought it was a landslide! Xingyu immediately couldn't cry or laugh. Miya saw that Xingyu was about to go berserk, and dared to tell Xingyu about her dream. Xingyu had no choice but to comfort Mia: "It's okay, it's just a nightmare." Sleep! Xingyu helped Miya lie down, let Miya pilllow his forearm, and patted Mia's chest to coax Miya to sleep. Feed! Don't take the opportunity to eat tofu roar! I saw Mia glaring at Xingyu viciously. In Xingyu's embrace, Mia slowly settled down and soon fell asleep. Heung-woo also fell asleep.
Early in the morning, Mia dreamed again. In her dream, Mia saw Heung-woo pushing the cart in the camp and walking happily. Suddenly, the corpse appeared in mid-air behind Heung-woo and swooped down towards Heung-woo with a scythe, but Heung-woo was unaware. Mia wanted to scream to remind Xingyu, but the feeling of being stuck in soft rubber came back. Miya couldn't scream again, watching the corpse swoop down behind Heungwoo, watching the corpse swing its sickle and slash at the top of Xingyu's head. Mia struggled with all her might, the moment the tip of the scythe fell on top of her head. Mia woke up from her own screams again. Xingyu was the same, and he was frightened and immediately jumped up. Xingyu, who was already experienced this time, looked at Miya speechlessly.
Xingyu knew in his heart that Miya didn't mean to scare herself. I had to sit on Mia's side, holding Mia from Mia with one hand, and caressing Mia's back with the other hand to comfort Mia. Heung-woo knew that when Mia first saw the corpse, he was frightened. So I kept dreaming of this corpse. Xingyu thought for a while and said, "Let's hold a sea burial for this victim!" Miya looked at Xingyu puzzled. Xingyu continued: "It may be that we took the victim's belongings, but allowed the corpses to be caught in the ice wall. So your heart is restless! We wrapped the bodies in tent cloth in the camp and buried the victims at sea. Let's repay the victims. After Miya heard what Xingyu said, she immediately nodded in agreement. Xingyu saw the morning light shining in from the outside, and knew that it was already dawn, so he immediately stood up and walked to the camp. But Mia was not allowed to follow, lest Mia be frightened by the bloodstained tent.
After Xingyu walked to the camp, he dismantled the tent and washed the tent cloth with the water from the iceberg. Although the tent cloth could not be washed, the blood stains had been washed away. Unless you pay attention, you won't see blood. Xingyu pulled the tent cloth and walked back to the raft. After arriving next to the raft, Xingyu directly pulled the camp tent into the sea behind the inflatable boat and pulled the camp tent cloth with a rope. In this way, the waves can be used to wash the tent cloth again, and on the other hand, it can also prevent Mia from finding the blood stains on the tent cloth that have faded. Although the inflatable boat pulling the tent cloth will slow down the inflatable boat. But Heungwoo would rather be slow than scare Mia again.
Xingyu and Miya rowed the inflatable boat like this, pulling the tent cloth. Three hours later, the body was finally seen again. Thankfully, they arrived early, and the corpse was still trapped in the ice wall with only its backpack. Xingyu hurriedly accelerated and rowed over. After rowing in front of the corpse, Xingyu spread the tent cloth on the sea at the foot of the corpse. Xingyu pulled out the backpack that the corpse was carrying from the ice wall, and carefully placed the corpse on the tent cloth with the backpack. Xingyu didn't dare to take off the backpack, lest Miya would think of it when she saw the backpack in the future. So Xingyu wrapped the corpse and the backpack together with a tent cloth. Then tie the ends of the wrap tightly with tent ropes. After wrapping, Xingyu pulled the package with a rope. Paddle an inflatable boat to pull the package out to sea. Heung-woo unties the rope that binds the inflatable boat and lets the package drift away with the current. After Heung-woo untied the rope, he stood with Mia in silence. At this time, Mia hummed the funeral song softly. The two hummed a funeral song and watched the package drift away with the waves, until the package was out of their sight, and then Xingyu and Mia rowed the inflatable boat back to the raft.
That night, Mia didn't have any more nightmares. Sleep till dawn.
