Chapter 374: Silent Deep Cold
Lin Xuan stared at the shadow, his hands and feet were complete, and his limbs were complete, although he did not have a clear face, but the silhouette-like change of posture showed all his feelings.
"What a sword." Lin Xuan sighed softly.
There has been a saying in China since ancient times that the sword is psychic, and as long as there is an evil demon, the knife will thunder in the box. The resurrection blade in Kongsha's hand comes from the pharaoh of ancient Egypt, and it also has this effect, which shows that the world's martial arts are in the same vein.
"What happened to Jefsky, you say?" The empty sand caressed the treasure knife, but the shadow was deeply embedded in the blade, and did not stop jumping because of the empty sand's touch.
"Only by going deep into the axis of the earth can we understand those." Lin Xuan smiled bitterly.
Kongsha then asked: "You say, when we reach the axis of the earth, will we be like Jeffsky?" Become a cold-blooded undead? β
Tian Meng stopped writing on the snow and interjected in a low voice: "He is not an immortal, if he really doesn't die, he won't break his neck and turn around under that knife." I don't think what the Nazi FΓΌhrer wanted in World War II was such an immortal warrior. β
Kongsha was dazed: "Then what is he?" Without blood or pulsations, he can walk upright, speak, chase and kill. Just imagine, in our previous history, how could there be such a kind of human existence? Even the vampires and werewolves of Western mythology could not have reached the point of Jeffsky. β
Before I knew it, snowflakes were floating in the air again, and in less than five minutes, the snowflakes turned into small hailstones and knocked on the roofs of the tents in the camp, making a chaotic sound of clattering and popping.
Lin Xuan felt that a white mist with a strong chill was spreading from the west. As soon as the white mist passed, a thin layer of crystal ice formed on the ground.
"Seems wrong?" Lin Xuan muttered to himself.
Sora shook his head, reached out to catch the hailstone, and put half a handful of hail into his mouth. He had come from the desert of Egypt, which was so dry that he must have seen very little hail.
"There's nothing wrong with it, isn't it the most normal thing to hail on the snowy mountains?" Kusha said.
Lin Xuan walked to the center of the camp and slowly helped Samantha up, her face already covered with thin ice. At this moment, the temperature at the summit of Mount Everest must be very low, at least dropping to about -15 degrees Celsius.
"Samantha, Samanthaβ" Lin Xuan anxiously called the other party's name, his left index finger flexed, and gently tapped the other party's temple. This method of waking up a sleeper by means of a blunt blow is often used by snow-capped travelers. If she doesn't wake up in time, maybe Samantha will end her life in a deep sleep.
Fortunately, Samantha slowly opened her eyes and breathed much easier.
"Samantha, we're already in control, now I have to ask you to contact the headquarters to see when we can see the moving Outer Peak?" Lin Xuan said.
Samantha turned her neck weakly to look around, then read out a phone number in a weak voice: "Dial this number for me...... This kind of weather is bad weather for ordinary climbers, but it may be that we have climbed to the Outer Peak...... The only chance ......"
With these words, Samantha was already out of breath.
Lin Xuan immediately took out the phone, dialed the number, and then handed the phone to Samantha.
When there was a human voice on the phone, Samantha immediately became energetic.
Someone on the other end of the line spoke in Russian: "What help do you need?" β
Samantha immediately replied in Russian: "We must see the Outer Peaks and then take a feasible way to climb them." The weather on Everest is terrible, it's white fog and hail, and to be honest, I hate it. β
The other party replied: "The cloud distribution map shows that the low temperature fog is getting heavier and heavier, and there is no east-west wind blowing them away, and the temperature at the summit of Mount Everest will drop further." According to the trend chart, it will drop to about minus 40 degrees. That's bad news, but I also have good news here, would you like to hear it? β
Samantha laughed: "Of course we have to listen, we don't want to hear any bad news at all." β
The other party replied: "The good news is that previous data show that Tianwaifeng appeared in the cold foggy day, according to the analysis of scientists, it is the low temperature freezing that slows down the moving objects, and finally can be seen by human eyes, so that they can land smoothly." I say this, can you understand? β
Samantha thought for a moment: "Understood. β
The other party laughed: "As long as you understand this matter, you can calmly face the changes on Mount Everest." We are just spectators, and we can't do much more for the benefit of humanity. Take care, Samantha. β
The phone hung up when it got here, exactly a minute and a half.
Samantha smiled bitterly: "Wait, let's wait and see if we can get a miracle."
While waiting, Kongsha also rescued Luo Yuan and sent him to the tent.
After Tian Meng wrote seven or eight times in a row, he stopped in despair.
Lin Xuan walked over and faced the mess with Tian Meng.
Tian Meng turned his head and looked at Lin Xuan, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth: "Lin Xuan, why do I suddenly feel that life is boring now?" β
Lin Xuan understood what she was thinking, and asked knowingly, "How can this be?" β
Tian Meng replied: "My father was born and died, and he was born and died, and he calculated everything, reversed black and white, just to come here, and was born and died for an uncertain treasure." His life is truly tragic. Until now, he has not really told me what the purpose of my life is. As his only daughter, I don't know anything, shouldn't I feel sad? β
The sadness on her face was like a perfectly grown onion, peeling back layer by layer, and pessimism and disappointment were clearly written layer by layer.
Lin Xuan hugged Tian Meng's shoulders and warmed her with his own body.
"Is there any meaning in a life like his? A lifetime of hard work, just for the last blockbuster, if you can't do it yourself, you will be pinned on the next generation. If the next generation is also ignorant and incompetent - like me, will not his life have been completely lost? "Tian Meng's pessimism is spreading.
Lin Xuan waved his hand to disperse the mist, and then brushed away the fine hail on Tian Meng's forehead.
"Don't be too bitter about yourself, everyone has his fate to carry. Whether it is a stranger or a relative, ancient and modern are the same. You don't try to take all the blame, that's not going to happen. The big people throughout the ages, the more they work hard and want to do a big business, the more they have to work hard and move forward in the early stage of entrepreneurship. Lin Xuan comforted Tian Meng.
He understood Samantha's call, as long as there was cold enough weather, he could freeze the high-speed Tianwai Peak, and humans could go up from the top of Mount Everest.
Now, don't worry about it being too cold, but worry about whether the temperature drops low enough.
As for Tian Yunong, this person has too many ideas, he can only use them but can't borrow them, and he must be guarded against.
"Let everyone who should come come." He said to Samantha, who was a little frightened.
