Chapter 472: Corpse

"It's going to be gritted!"

Lin Feiyan took a bite of the hard compressed biscuit, chewed hard with her snow-white teeth, and said dissatisfiedly.

Since the Sword team was absorbed by Luo Yuan, she has not had a good life, almost all of the time in the original site of the reconstruction area to search for possible survivors, although the unique evolution ability, so that she is not afraid of the cold, but every day of eating and sleeping in the open, let her suffer enough.

This is not the most annoying, if the survivor can be found, at least her hard work is meaningful, after all, now that humanity has suffered a great change, even the most selfish people, in this environment, will be deeply infected, but their entire sword team has been searching for several months, not to mention the survivors, not even a single corpse can be found.

"I'd better wait until I boil the water before eating!" Wu Qianru next to her persuaded her, while she put down the backpack behind her, unzipped it, and took out an alcohol lamp and a portable small pot from it, as well as a wooden water storage tank, even if she didn't open it, she knew that the water in it had already been frozen tightly.

"It's troublesome, it's better to eat it directly!" Lin Feiyan muttered, her mouth kept making a crisp sound similar to the crushing of ice cubes, which made her teeth itch to hear, in the cold weather here, the compressed biscuits were almost as hard as stones, if she wasn't an evolutionary, I am afraid she would not be able to bite at all.

Wu Qianru didn't persuade again, she is not like Lin Feiyan, she is not afraid of the cold, even if she has a good pair of teeth, her stomach will be so cold that she can't stand it.

She took out a clean cotton cloth and hammer from her backpack, spread the cotton cloth on the ice, picked up the hammer and gently tapped the sides of the water tank, and soon the ice fell off the tank and fell on the cotton cloth.

She skillfully wrapped the ice cubes in cotton cloth, then picked up the molten iron and smashed the ice cubes hard.

After a few minutes, she untied the cotton cloth, the ice inside had all been broken, she picked a few pieces, threw them into the small pot, and she reloaded the remaining ice into the water tank, then lit the windproof alcohol lamp and began to boil the water.

The flame was quietly **** to the bottom of the pot, and soon the water was boiling, she took out two cups and poured one glass:

"Here you go!"

Lin Feiyan was not polite, she took the cup and drank it dry, she moaned comfortably, as if the cup of freshly boiled water was lukewarm, and after a while, she asked Wu Qianru out loud:

"How far is the city ahead?"

"There should be more than a dozen kilometers left." Wu Qianru poured herself a glass, then soaked the compressed biscuits in hot water and said casually.

"When we're done searching the city in front of us, we'll go back and rest for a while!" Lin Feiyan sighed and said, she has experienced a lot of trials during this time, and she has matured a lot compared to before: "Speaking of which, we have been out for a week, and the supplies are almost used, so it is time to go back." ”

"Alas! I can finally rest for a few days. Wu Qianru said with some joy on her face.

She trekked through the snow during the day, shivered in her sleeping bag at night, and had no clean water at all, so she had to filter the ice and snow with a purifier she carried with her before going to bed to meet the next day's water needs.

What's worse is that in extremely cold weather, the purified water will freeze quickly, and the ice must be melted before washing your face and brushing your teeth every day.

The weather was good, but since the war, the climate has been very unusual, with snowstorms and sometimes hailstorms, and they have experienced one of them.

It was late at night last month, and it was when they were asleep that the hail fell like their sleeping bags without warning, and the hail the size of a football fell from the sky like a meteorite. In particular, the nearby ice fields are flat, and there is no way to hide, so the two can only support the tent with their hands, and endure the middle of the night.

……

Taking advantage of the lunch time, after resting for half an hour, the two set off again.

It didn't take long to arrive at the original site of the city.

"This is probably the scope of Endeavor City." Lin Feiyan glanced at the latitude and longitude of the smart terminal, then looked around and said.

There is no trace of a human city here, except for the thick ice and snow on the ground, it is still ice and snow.

"I guess no one is alive anymore!" Wu Qianru sighed and said, the situation she has seen recently is like this, she has long lost any hope, and now she is just doing her best to obey the fate of God.

"Anyway, let's search around first." Lin Feiyan said.

……

Now that the ground has been covered with thick ice and snow, the two of them are not humanoid nuclear weapons like Luo Yuan, they are weak and can easily break through the ice, it is impossible to search in detail, but it is not without a way.

The easiest way to tell if a city has survivors is to look for possible vents.

After all, if there are survivors in a city, it can't be sealed, otherwise the lack of oxygen can make everyone die, plus three months have passed since the disaster, and the underground city without ventilation openings, even if there are survivors, I am afraid that it has suffocated to death.

The two of them took out the terrain sounder from their backpacks and began to work, this kind of thing has a wide range of applications, and it is an indispensable instrument in the fields of civil engineering infrastructure and structural injury detection, so even if it is Hope City, there is a lot of stock.

With this kind of equipment, they can save a lot of effort.

Time passed minute by minute, hours passed, and the time gradually came to evening, but unfortunately the two of them saw nothing but ice and snow.

Lin Feiyan, who was exhausted of patience, was about to notify Wu Qianru nearby to call it a day, when she suddenly heard Wu Qianru exclaim: "Captain, come here, this is ...... There is a corpse here. ”

Lin Feiyan was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly walked over, now the ice on the ground is dozens of meters thick, and it is constantly thickening at a rate of about one meter every day on average, plus the ice and snow here are not transparent, almost one-third of it is dust, the color is dirty, and it is pitch black. Under normal circumstances, even if there is a corpse underneath, it cannot be seen with the naked eye.

If the body can be found, it means that this person has not been dead for a long time, maybe half a day, maybe a day, but not more than two days at most.

Because of the passage of time, the body has long been buried and cannot be seen.

The presence of the corpse indicates that there is a high probability of survivor gathering in the vicinity.

"Where?" Lin Feiyan trotted all the way over and hurriedly asked.

"Look there!" Wu Qianru's face was a little nervous, her breath was short, and she pointed to an arm that was exposed to the ice five or six meters away.

Through the dirty ice and snow, it can be vaguely seen that there is a young and **** corpse buried inside.

Lin Feiyan looked in the direction, her face also changed slightly, no wonder Wu Qianru was so bad, it was really that arm was too weird, too bizarre, she found that the exposed arm exposed by this corpse had no trace of being frozen, no, not to mention being frozen, the complexion of this arm did not look like a corpse at all.

Its surface skin is ruddy and shiny, with a hint of pink, and it is really impossible to imagine that he or she is buried in the ice, and it is very likely that he or she is still alive.

You must know that the earth is now close to minus seventy degrees, even if it is a two-level polar night, if you don't wear clothes, except for a special evolver like her who can absorb material internal energy, the rest of the Sword team can't last long in this terrible temperature.

And looking at his (her) arms and the size of his or her body under the ice, he or she obviously looks like a five or six-year-old child.

"Captain, what should I do?" Wu Qianru asked.

This matter is really weird, even a super evolutionary like Wu Qianru has some six gods without a master.

"Let's go up and have a look first, maybe I'm still alive!" To be honest, Lin Feiyan herself is a little hairy, but after all, she is the captain, much calmer than Wu Qianru, no matter what, as the captain, it is really a shame to run away in front of the team members without a fight.

However, just as she quietly took a deep breath, and was just about to walk over, her eyes suddenly saw the arm that was exposed to the ice, moved slightly, and shook her little hand gently.

This discovery made her heart almost leak half a beat, and before she could calm down, she saw that the ice was clattering, and the ice cubes buried in the corpses suddenly shattered, and a small figure sat up from the ice, revealing her bare back, and countless broken ice fell to the ground.

Looking at her (his) natural movements, it seems that the pressure on her body is not some ice cube as hard as iron, but like a layer of crispy milk skin, she (he) turned her back to everyone, seemed to be a little sleepy, yawned, turned her back to everyone for a while, and then stood up.

Lin Feiyan and Wu Qianru glanced at each other, only feeling furious in their hearts, although they didn't see what kind of ability the other party had, but just with the strength shown by the gestures just now, the two of them were jealous.

You must know that the ice layer is about minus 70 degrees Celsius, and its hardness is already about the same as steel, and if you replace either of the two, you can't destroy it as easily as the other party.

The two of them quietly retreated, but before they had taken a few steps, they seemed to hear movement, and the unknown child suddenly turned around.

It was a little girl who looked like a pink carve, naked, and the fine crumbs of ice slowly melted on her body, emitting a rising mist, like a cloud.

Seeing the two girls, she was surprised for a moment, and soon exclaimed with a look of surprise:

"Ah, I finally see people!"

Lin Feiyan and Wu Qianru glanced at each other and breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, at least the other party is a human and can communicate.

Wu Qianru asked cautiously, "Xiao ...... Girl, why are you lying here? ”

"Hello Auntie, I'm sleeping!"

The youngest daughter spoke clearly and politely, but the answer in her mouth made the two girls look at each other.

"Where are you from?" Wu Qianru thought about it and asked, maybe she could get news of the survivors from her mouth.

"Xinjing No. 3 Gene Laboratory, but the people there are gone, my sisters and sisters, brothers and brothers are gone, even the aunts who take care of us are gone, I am looking for them!" The little girl said innocently.

The more they listened, the more strange they felt, not to mention that she was from the laboratory, nor her siblings, but Xinjing was the area where the Boxing people focused on attacking, and one of the antimatter bombs was released there, and the entire location of Xinjing is now a big crater.
