Chapter 12 The Mystery of Life and Death is added to @Midsummer's Fruit
Izumo Peak rises in the middle of the mountain, connecting the clouds, I don't know how high, but at this moment it suddenly collapses, but it is as if the sky has fallen, at the beginning, the rumbling sound is like thunder, but then the heavens and the earth shake, and the whole world seems to collapse.
We were separated by an hour, but even so, we felt the overwhelming rush of stones and snow as if it were about to pour down on us.
Seeing this, I sat down on the ground without hesitating the danger.
Holy.
I was stunned, and my mind kept simulating, thinking that under such the power of nature, even if Lu Zuo could fly against the wind, he might not be able to escape the speed of the collapse of the mountain, if Lu Zuo really rushed to the foot of Izumo Peak, at this moment, in addition to being buried there alive, I couldn't think of a second possibility.
I don't know why, but tears welled up in my eyes.
Alas!
I knew it was a trap, a trap......
Why do you already know that it is a trap and be led by the nose by the enemy? Well, now, a good living person, buried under tens of millions of tons of ice and snow mountains and rocks, how can he still come out alive?
My hands and feet were cold, but my buttocks sitting in the snow were hot for a while, and my eyes were blurry, and after a while, I heard Wang Ming shouting next to me: "Lu Yan, Lu Yan!" ”
Yes?
I raised my head blankly, saw Wang Ming raised his eyebrows, and said loudly, "What are you doing?" Losing your fighting spirit now? ”
I gritted my teeth and couldn't help but feel sad and said that we should stop him......
Without saying a word, my tears flowed out again, but Wang Ming reached over, grabbed my arm, and said seriously: "Life to see people, death to see corpses, now I haven't figured out what the situation is, what are you crying here?" ”
I smiled bitterly and said Brother Wang, I know you are comforting me, but we are all adults, so we have to abandon our whimsical ideas, and with an avalanche of this scale, Brother Zuo probably won't survive.
Wang Ming said, how do you know that he has no ability to escape?
I said that I would see the corpse when I died, and in this case, you tell me, how to find his body?
Wang Ming saw that my heart was as dead as ashes, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed me, and said that since this is the case, then let's withdraw first, and we will go to a high place, so as not to be covered by the rushing avalanche.
My whole body stiffened, like a walking corpse, and I pulled Wang Ming to a nearby mountain beam, and just as I stood down, the avalanche that fell from Izumo Peak had already surged to the place where we had just stood, and the surging snow was like a rolling torrent, sweeping past the place where we were standing just now, and there was no life left.
Seeing that the originally soft snow had turned into a life-threatening torrent at this moment, I inexplicably felt a little awe of nature in my heart, and then couldn't help asking, "How did that guy do it?" ”
Wang Ming looked at me and said What, do you want to take revenge?
I clenched my fists and said with a miserable face, "Why don't you want to?" ”
Wang Ming said that the enemy is cunning, and if he wants to take revenge, he has to calm down and wait for a while when the avalanche stops, and the two of us will go to Izumo Peak first to investigate the situation and determine what is going on, as well as Lu Zuo's life and death, and then make a decision.
In the face of such a huge change, Wang Mingyuan was much calmer than me, and seeing his resolute expression, my heart inexplicably swelled up with some expectations that I shouldn't have.
Maybe Lu Zuoji people have their own heavenly appearance, and they may not be killed by such a devastating avalanche?
Although I have always persuaded myself to face the reality, but this hope for a lifetime came out, and I couldn't press it immediately, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it made sense Lu Zuo was so heroic, so many winds and waves had survived, this time he already knew that there was fraud in it, and he had already taken precautions, how could he capsize the boat?
Thinking about it like this, my heart calmed down a little, and then I remembered that the enemy was really unbelievable, and in order to deal with Lu Zuo, he actually collapsed the Izumo Peak, and suddenly became entangled again.
After so many times of self-denial, I took a deep breath and knew that caring was messy, and my current state was really bad.
If I continue to sway like this, not only will I not be able to make things go in a good direction, but I may also die here.
On the other hand, Wang Ming's relationship with Lu Zuo may not be shallower than mine, but he regained his consciousness after a moment of distraction.
At this point, no amount of hypocrisy and sadness will help.
Let's face it.
While waiting for the avalanche to end, I sat cross-legged and practiced directly according to the method of suppressing the twelve methods of suppressing the mountains, visualizing myself as if I were like a mountain, and my state of mind gradually became calmer.
When the avalanche stopped, I stood up and said to Wang Ming, "I'll take you away." ”
Wang Ming knew that I had the art of retreating, and his actions were like the wind, so he did not refuse, stretched out his hand, shook it with me, and then I took a deep breath and rushed towards Izumo Peak.
Under the traction of the Earth Escape Technique, the distance that would have taken me an hour or so took me about a quarter of an hour to arrive.
It was far away before, so although I could feel the power of the collapse of the peak, it was not profound, except for the sudden collapse that I thought the sky was going to fall, and I felt okay when I was behind, but at this moment I walked to the front, and saw that the peak that was originally next to the clouds suddenly went to a large piece, and the boulder below was covered with countless snow, after such a long time of rest, the whole mountain peak has changed its huge appearance, and we can feel the situation under the peak at that time.
With such a large area, it is a dream to want to soar and then leave.
And if you are crushed underneath, where can you live?
The two of them stood near the snow-crushed stone pile, seeing the white scenery around them, Wang Ming took a deep breath, and then said to me: "You are proficient in the earth escape technique, feel it, and see if Lu Zuo is still alive." ”
In fact, I didn't need Wang Ming's orders, I was already ready for the Earth Escape Technique.
There are two kinds of earth retreat, one is length, and the other is depth, the so-called length, which is to find the gaps and folds formed when the earth plate is extruded, and then rush away, as for the depth, it is actually to go deep into the ground.
When I was before, the Earth Escape Technique was usually used to hurry, and the only time I explored underground was when I fought against the Nameless Body of the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon on Yuanqiao Immortal Island.
Whether Lu Zuo is buried or not, and whether he is still alive at this moment, is very important to me, so after taking a deep breath, I went straight down.
It is easy to use the land escape technique to hurry, as long as you find the space gap between the two points, you can cross the distance in space and jump over.
And going down, it's harder.
The further down you go, the greater the pressure you will bear, not only from the earth's crustal plates, but also from the Heavenly Dao.
And even so, I still surrounded a huge area, looking around, trying to find Lu Zuo's traces, and with the accumulation of time, I feel that as long as Lu Zuo is alive, I should be able to sense it.
However, until I was tired and lying on the snow, I didn't find anything.
There was a dead silence here.
Several times, I found some newly dead things from the ground, but they were not Lu Zuo, they were either mountain people, or beasts, but there was no Lu Zuo.
Every discovery is accompanied by a process of hope and disappointment.
When I tried my best, I was so tired that I almost collapsed but I wanted to get up again, Wang Ming reached out and stopped me.
He said to me, "Okay, don't look for it." ”
I shook his hand away and said no, I'm sure he's still alive and maybe waiting for our rescue right now.
I was still about to perform the Earth Escape Technique, but Wang Ming reached over, grabbed my arm, and then said to me word by word: "Enough, Lu Yan, calm down, you have been in a hurry for the past two days, your spirit is too tight, listen to me, now close your eyes, sleep for a while, everything will be fine......
There seemed to be some magic in his words, and for some reason, when I heard his slow words, my eyelids suddenly fought, and everything became blurred.
It didn't take long for me to feel a loss of strength all over my body, and my whole body began to float.
Then the world went dark.
I don't know how long later, I opened my eyes, and found that I was no longer in the ice and snow, but in a cave, different from the cave passage in the belly of the mountain when I was on the road before, the cave here was actually carved out of the ice and rock.
Yes......
I groaned and tried to stand up, but my arms felt weak and I couldn't support myself.
I looked around, only to find that Wang Ming was at the entrance of the cave not far away, and the walls around me were transparent ice, and there was light from nowhere, which was refracted through the ice, making the place where I was lying became bizarre and colorful.
I rubbed my brain, resounded everything that had happened before I went to bed, hurriedly got up, and asked Wang Ming at the entrance of the cave, "Where are we?" ”
Wang Ming seemed to know that I was awake, and he didn't turn his head back, and said directly: "Izumo Peak." ”
Yes?
I said what's going on?
Wang Ming said that you are too tired, so I will find a nearby place to stay first, and then find a way to leave after you wake up.
I leaned against the cold ice wall and walked to the entrance of the cave, and found myself in a cliff on Izumo Peak, where the sunlight was shining overhead, reflecting on the snow-capped slopes.
I asked Wang Ming, what are you looking at?
Wang Ming pointed to a pit snow valley not far below, and said slowly: "I'm looking at a mirage." ”
Yes?
I followed Wang Ming's finger to look down, but I saw that there was a person standing in the pit.
That person was made of some kind of light and shadow, but I recognized the other party at a glance.
Lu Zuo inside the mirage.
