Chapter 177: Blizzard

The iceberg snow lotus growing on the cliff curbed the insect poison in everyone's body and saved everyone's lives.

I have experienced life and death, and I have come back to life again, and I can't help but admire that I am really very fateful. Sitting on the cold snow, watching everyone fall asleep, reminiscing about the ups and downs along the way.

Everyone seems to be inexplicably stirred into the whirlpool of the north-south competition, and in the end, there is no so-called competition at all, only each other assists each other to join forces to escape, and they are completely played around by the mysterious Kunlun Mountain. In the end, the army was lost, and he said that if he conquered the tomb under Kunlun Mountain, he could save his life and leave this place, he was already burning high incense, and his ancestors blessed him.

I now think the purpose of coming here is quite ridiculous and ridiculous, I wonder how things got to this point?

Recalling the beginning of the whole thing, the reason for the robbery of the antique shop of the fifth master caused the north-south struggle to become worse and worse, and it was only then that this unspeakable competition was born.

Captain Chen and Chen Dong of the Southern Team are not treacherous and troublemakers at all, they are obviously very good people by nature, why did they become the captains of the Southern Team and lead everyone to start competing with us? I think there must be any misunderstandings and reasons for this, and I have to find a time to ask Captain Chen.

Before I knew it, I fell asleep again, and when I woke up, I found that it was already noon, the sun was high, and the rest of the Western Expedition had been awake for a long time.

Although the midday sun was shining, I could clearly feel that the temperature in the canyon had dropped a lot, and the air was very humid and seemed to be fogging.

The fifth master saw that I was sober. He came to me and asked me with concern, "Xiaowen." How is your body? ”

I smiled and replied, "It's good, it's just a little hungry." But. Fifth brother, I think there seems to be something wrong with the climate here now, the air is too humid, and it seems to be foggy. ”

When the fat man heard me, he immediately interjected and said, "I said that my clothes are soaked, and it turns out that the air has become wet." ”

Fifth Master Zha touched his clothes, his face changed suddenly, and he left frowning and looking at the sky.

When I saw that the fifth master looked different, I knew that something was wrong. And the heart said, "Is it not going to be foggy?" So what's going on with the air being so humid?

A cold wind blew, and I suddenly thought that there was another possibility, the last thing I wanted to guess or see, was "blizzard".

In the empty canyon, there is no place to hide, and if the Western Expedition encounters a snowstorm here, it will definitely freeze to death.

The fifth master looked up and watched the sky for a long time. Then he told everyone to pack up their things and hurry on the road.

My heart flickered, and I said, "It's over, it seems that it is really going in the direction of the conjecture that I least want to see."

I thought the return journey would be easy. As a result, I never expected that difficulties and obstacles would come in an instant.

Not long after the reorganization of the Western Expeditionary Team, the sky began to change significantly. First of all, cumulus clouds are everywhere. The sun disappeared and the wind began to blow in the canyon. Soon. The crowd could only walk with their heads bowed, facing the growing cold wind. Difficult step by step to move forward.

Now we have to find a place where we can shelter from the wind and light the fire to keep warm before the blizzard comes, or everyone may lose their way in the blizzard and be frozen alive into ice sculptures.

The blizzard came much faster than we did, and soon the sky was filled with snowflakes. After a while, it began to snow, and the surroundings were completely white, and soon even the rocky cliffs on both sides disappeared from view.

In order not to be separated, the people attached ropes to each other's bodies.

A large number of snowflakes were swept by the strong wind, and the visibility around them was very low, so everyone could only rely on their feelings, bowing their heads and moving slowly, and soon the snow would cover their boots, and it would not be long before they were almost knee-high.

The cold wind was really like a knife, cutting the bare skin on my face, and my eyes couldn't be opened at all, they were completely closed, blindly moving forward step by step.

The raging wind and snow kept pouring into my neck, and my ears were already frozen hard, as if they would fall to the ground and fall into eight petals if they touched it. His forehead was also cold, as if he had frozen into ice, and his nose could no longer breathe, so he could only use his mouth and gasp for breath.

I wanted to catch the rain and walk with me, but I couldn't open my eyes at all, and I didn't know which direction she was going behind me, so I couldn't help but worry. I wanted to go back and check on the rain, but my neck was frozen and I couldn't turn back. All the people in the Western Expedition were like blind people touching elephants, with their eyes closed, wading through the knee-high snow step by step, and moving blindly forward without direction.

Even if there were shelter from the wind near the rock wall, I don't think we would have found it. The bitter cold wind and goose feather snow completely filled the world of everyone, and then there was nothing else.

The manic blizzard made the footsteps behind me disappear in the blink of an eye, and I had no idea how long and how far I had walked. I just felt that my legs were numb and hypothermic, and I was about to be as cold as the weather, and I couldn't feel the temperature anymore.

Suddenly, the fifth master who was walking in the forefront to explore the way, his body shook, and I saw him fall to the ground. It turned out that he stepped on a snow shell with a hollow in the ground, knocked the snow down, and then slipped on the soles of his feet, and fell unsteadily down.

I immediately subconsciously pulled the rope with both hands, but it turned out to be in vain, because I was very close to the fifth master, when he fell, my body had already leaned forward and lost the center of gravity, even if I pulled the rope, but there was no way to exert force, and was led by the fifth master to fall forward, fell into the dark hole.

The Western Expedition is now a veritable grasshopper connected to a rope, and not long after I fell down with the fifth master, the others fell into the cave one after another like dumplings.

I got up from the ground and found that it was dark all around me, and I could not see anything, but when I heard a faint sound, I took out the fire fold in my bosom and blew it up.

My teammates on the Western Expedition team are all by my side, and there are no less than one. The place where we fell in was very strange, only the ground was mud, and the other three sides were snow shells formed by snow, as if it was a big snow house, and the distance on one side was still shining.

I forgot that I still had a rope tied to my body, and I held the fire fold and walked to the place where there was light. As a result, the ropes on everyone's bodies were entangled together, directly tripping me again, and the fire fold in my hand also took off my hand coldly and rolled down into the distance.

As soon as the fat man stood up, he was taken by me and fell down again, but he fell on top of me, he didn't get up, and couldn't help complaining and saying, "Lao Zheng, what's the matter with you?" The fire burned the ass. ”

I was overwhelmed by the fat man, and the broken ribs were in pain, and I hurriedly urged him to get up quickly, but the sound was quieter than the sound of mosquitoes flying.

It took the fat man half a day to get up from me, not on purpose, but because the rope trapped everyone together, and it was difficult to separate from each other and get up from the ground.

When I got up from the ground, I found that the light I had seen before had disappeared, and it was completely pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers. I bent down and groped on the ground for a long time, but I didn't find the fire fold that fell, and then the fifth master turned on the flashlight to illuminate the surroundings.

The area of the snow shell is surprisingly large, the passages on both sides are in total darkness, and the hole above the head that was trampled on by the fifth master of the head has disappeared at some point!

I picked up the fire fold that had fallen at my feet, and looked up in horror at the sturdy shell of snow not far above my head. The top wall formed by snow above the head is very thick, and it seems that it was not formed in a day or two. I was amazed that there was an open passage below, and under normal circumstances, it would not have been possible to form such a strong snow shell. Could it be that there was once something that could hold up the snow down here, but why has it disappeared again? Moreover, how could the collapsed hole be repaired in an instant, and the snowstorm outside should not be able to bury the collapsed hole in the blink of an eye. Even if a human is injured, it takes a long time for the wound to heal. Why is it that the snow shell formed by the snow on the top of the head can recover on its own in the blink of an eye? It's just weird.

As we all know, snowflakes melt after being exposed to sunlight and then form ice ballast again, which does not have the function of restoring the place to its original state.

It seems that this temporary safe haven is not a safe place either!

This white passage like a snow house is really terrifying enough. Fifth Master Zha has already begun to urge everyone to leave here and look for an exit. We felt a breeze on one side and walked towards the side of the snow house.

However, I realized that the direction was not the direction in which I had just noticed the light.

The whistling wind and a faint halo appeared in front of the eyes of the Western Expedition team.

Standing at the exit of the snow cave, the members of the Western Expedition feel like they are in the belly of a giant snow monster, peeking into the outside world through its wide open mouth.

In the days that followed, the blizzard never stopped, so everyone had to hide in the snow cave, whether hungry or thirsty, and grabbed a handful of snow at the mouth of the cave, and the snow became the only food for us to quench our thirst.

On the third day, the snow was knee-high, and Captain Chen finally couldn't help it and insisted on going out to find food.

I was adamantly against it, but in the end I couldn't resist him, so I decided to go with him.

But because I had an injury, the others resolutely disagreed, and in the end, everyone felt that it was easy to do things because of the large number of people, so the fat man and the fifth master of Zha accompanied Captain Chen out to find food.

Unexpectedly, the three of them never came back! (To be continued......)
