Chapter 143: Glaciers

Chilly.

The biting cold seemed to linger for a long time. There was only one question in Qin Zhen's consciousness: Could it be that the process of dying was so long? So that he is still not dead? Or is it ...... The feeling after death is cold.

There was silence all around, as if it was not in the world.

After waking up slowly, Qin Zhen opened his eyes with great effort, feeling that his whole body was already so cold that he was unconscious. All around was a dazzling white, cold air that sucked into the lungs like pins and needles.

Qin Zhen tried to move his fingers, and felt that in the stiff and numb palm, he was still holding a cold thing tightly. Raising his hand to his eyes with difficulty, he saw the white-purple gradient and crystal clear lotus flower at a glance. The beautiful shape of the Buddha's hand and the artistic conception of the epiphany made Qin Zhen gradually sober up.

…… I survived. This was the first thought that popped into Qin Zhen's mind.

Qin Zhen turned his head with great effort, trying to get up, but he failed repeatedly. He looked up and looked around, looking for his best friends.

Beside them, there were their backpacks, water bottles, and snow poles and other utensils, scattered all over the ground. In addition to snow white, it is still snow white. The only color that was different was probably these items of theirs, and the blue of the tips of the surrounding icicle forests.

Where is this......

Qin Zhen tried hard to recall the previous incident, and still remembered that the last picture seemed to be an avalanche, a very terrible avalanche...... After that, nothing is known.

At this time, there was a movement not far away. It sounded like some animal digging in the snow.

Qin Zhen lay on the ground. Searching everywhere for the source of the sound. After a while, I saw Lao Gu's backpack shaking slightly on the snow in the distance. He...... Is it buried underneath?

Thinking that they might all be alive, Qin Zhen desperately wanted to stand up and run over, but he had been in the snow for too long, and his whole body was numb and stiff, and he couldn't stand up at all.

Qin Zhen tried to shout again, but he could only open his mouth in vain, and he couldn't even make a sound. I don't know how long they have been lying in this snowdrift...... It's a miracle that he didn't die.

Qin Zhen tried to calm himself down and put the bergamot lotus into the pocket of his close-fitting clothes. Then move as much as you can. He knows. As long as you warm yourself up, you can try to get up!

In this way, while rubbing his hands, he crawled towards Lao Gu. Try to shout out the sound in your mouth. Not at first. But gradually. I can hear some hoarse and faint voices too.

When Qin Zhen was finally able to make a sound, Lao Gu's backpack obviously stopped for a moment, and then immediately began to shake more intensely. Qin Zhen knew. It was Lao Gu who heard his voice.

Qin Zhen climbed harder, and as he moved, his body gradually began to regain his consciousness and poor mobility.

"Lao Gu...... Hold on......" Qin Zhen shouted hoarsely.

The big backpack first stopped, and after listening to Qin Zhen's words, it symbolically slammed a few times. It looks like a mountaineering bag has become a fine ......

Qin Zhen looked around, the position where Lao Gu was located was really not good. Not only was he in the snow, but he was stuck in the middle of the ice. He's so big, it's really hard to get out of it. If you want to help him, you'll have to break the ice open.

Finally climbed to the backpack, Qin Zhen dragged it out desperately, but the bag didn't move at all.

Later, Qin Zhen understood that this mountaineering bag was still on Lao Gu's body, and Lao Gu was buried in it with his head down. I don't know how long he's been struggling, or if he's just revealing a big hiking bag.

Qin Zhen patted Lao Gu's backpack and comforted him, "Lao Gu, you hold on!" I'm going to find something right now, cut this bag first, and then dig you out. If you hear me, answer me. ”

I only heard a muffled "uh-huh" sound from under the ice and snow, and the sound seemed to be made by people covering their mouths. Listen to the voice, he's buried enough to die......

Now that he didn't care about anything else, Qin Zhen staggered to his feet, and stumbled back to the place where his backpack was scattered just now. There are all kinds of tools they must have, and with the guys, it is easy to rescue Lao Gu.

Qin Zhen found knives, scissors, and ice axes and ice sticks. Confidently returned to the place where Lao Gu was buried, first cut off the large and heavy hiking bag, and then began to use an ice axe to chop the surrounding ice picks and cut the snow on the ground.

But the snow here is not soft, but pressed. If you don't dig out Lao Gu quickly, he will be suffocated inside.

Qin Zhen sped up the movement of wielding the ice axe in his hand, and struggled to scrape the ice and snow one by one. Finally, seeing Lao Gu's clothes, Qin Zhen was overjoyed, and hurriedly dragged Lao Gu out with his hands!

Like a bear emerging from the snow, with a burst of snowflakes, Lao Gu was finally dragged out. At the same time, they both fell to the ground on their backs.

Qin Zhen got up and hurriedly went over to pat Lao Gu's face: "Brother, brother, wake up!" We're alive! By the way, what about the flag? ”

Lao Gu gasped for breath, didn't say anything for a long time, and could only point to the place not far from his "pit".

Qin Zhen saw that Lao Gu was out of danger, so he let himself take a break here, and he hurried over to save Jiang Qi.

To say that the place where Jiang Qi was buried is even more unfavorable, it is almost a layer of ice on it. Qin Zhen couldn't imagine how a living person could be frozen in the ice neither deep nor shallow!

He remembered the legend of the Meili Snow Mountain. They weren't turned into minced meat and frozen, so they thought they were already the mountain gods' extrajudicial kindness......

Qin Zhen smashed the hard ice with an ice axe and shouted Jiang Qi's name loudly. I don't know if he's still alive......

Fortunately, Jiang Qi under the ice had a little reaction. He was buried sideways, so Qin Zhen could see his face when he moved slightly. It's just that through the ice, I can't see his current situation clearly. I can only barely know that he is still alive at the moment!

Qin Zhen immediately began to smash it harder! But this ice layer is as hard as iron, and after smashing for a long time, only a small piece of ice flowers was seen.

Qin Zhen patted the ice layer anxiously and frantically, telling Jiang Qi that he must persevere. He could no longer tolerate the departure of his best friend, especially in front of himself......

Just this one thought suddenly reminded Qin Zhen of what happened before the avalanche! Yudong he... Gone...... The ice stone of the Eye of Shangri-La disappeared along with the place that marked the location of Shangri-La...... Was he really brought to Shangri-La......

Thinking of this, Qin Zhen clenched his fists and closed his eyes, an indescribable grief and indignation surged in his chest! He began to feel a surge of fiery power in his body, until the power reached his arm, and he raised his fist and slammed it into the ice without hesitation!

The ice cracked!

Qin Zhen immediately smashed the crack in the ice with an ice axe, and in a short time, that side of the ice was pried open!

"Big Banner!" Qin Zhen dragged Jiang Qi hard, trying to drag him out. Lao Gu also eased up a little at this time, and also stepped forward to help.

It took a lot of effort to drag Jiang Qi out of the ice pit. He seemed to be still a little drowsy, and his consciousness was not particularly clear, Lao Gu patted his face, and Qin Zhen called his name one after another, only then did he slowly open his eyes.

The three of them all survived the dead, which made Qin Zhen feel like he was in tears! My eyes hurt hotly, and my whole heart was so uncomfortable.

If there were five people sitting on the snow now and feeling that they had escaped death, Qin Zhen would probably not be like this now......

They helped each other to a sheltered place, gasping for air with their backs against icicles.

The sky is as blue as a green curtain. This is presumably the color of the sky exclusive to snow-capped mountains. Looking around, there are ice steps, icicle forests, and snow-capped waterfalls in the distance. The vastness is like an illusion, and it is dark. In this icy snow white, Qin Zhen understood where they were in a trance......

At this time, Lao Gu happened to open his mouth and asked hoarsely: "Did we survive?" Where is this...... "It doesn't look like the snowy mountains they've climbed before."

"Mingyong Glacier." Qin Zhen replied lightly.

Lao Gu and Jiang Qi both looked at Qin Zhen in surprise, as if they didn't expect him to be able to tell where they were at this time.

But Qin Zhen looked at the vast distance, smiled bitterly and said: "These are the unique scenery of glaciers around us, all the mountain disasters and avalanches in Meili Snow Mountain, and finally the remains will be pushed out by the snow mountain and found in Mingyong Glacier." I think...... We're no exception. It's just that luckily, we're not corpses. ”

Lao Gu and Jiang Qi were silent, no one could not be unconvinced by such a supernatural power! How effective must this be to be reincarnated consistently. No matter where they came from, they will eventually appear on the Mingyong Glacier. This...... It's really a power that makes people worship and feel awe!

Qin Zhen was the first to stand up, looked at the sea of snow around him and said, "I'...... Look for it. Perhaps, like us, he was buried in the snow......"

Lao Gu frowned and looked at Qin Zhen, naturally knowing that what he was looking for was Yudong. But...... Yudong: There's no way he's here. He was gone before the avalanche......

Lao Gu wanted to remind Qin Zhen of this fact, but looking at him like that, he was a little speechless. So I had to follow him, looking for him foot by foot, meter by meter......

Since Jiang Qi was rescued by smashing the ice just now, as long as Qin Zhen saw an abnormal shadow under the ice at this time, he would smash it without saying a word. But underneath is often frozen soil, or plants.

Before I could find a twenty-meter range, a little red had already appeared on the snow. It was the blood dripping from Qin Zhen's fist......

Jiang Qi and Lao Gu couldn't stand it anymore, so they had to stop Qin Zhen and said: "Da Zhen, you can't find Dongshao's ...... like this" (to be continued......)
