Chapter 140: The Second Question of Human Life
The silver-haired Snow Maiden suddenly appeared, causing a lot of discussion among the people, and Tianyu became angry with me because of this. I had no choice but to go back to the low passage to make her happy.
As a result, I didn't die, but at this time, Captain Chen said a word that added fuel to the fire, and my heart was in my throat, for fear that Tianyu would have an unnecessary dispute with the team leader because of this.
But my worries seem to be superfluous, Tianyu doesn't care about Captain Chen's words, maybe she knows that Captain Chen has no malicious intentions, I'm really afraid that Tianyu, the little girl's uncertain personality, can't help but get angry. But fortunately, she just pinched my thigh and didn't have a dispute with Captain Chen.
I grinned, gritted my teeth, secretly endured the pain, and said in my heart: My life is really miserable!
Time passed in a blink of an eye, and everyone still hadn't found the exit, and as night was approaching, I noticed that everyone was starting to get nervous, and I immediately thought that it might be the Snow Maiden incident that I had mentioned this morning. Unexpectedly, the so-called emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry, and I, the client, did not take this matter to heart at all, but the others are everyone who is in danger and is very nervous.
In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, I ate something casually and lay down early. When everyone saw that I had laid down to sleep, they all lay down on the ground one after another and began to rest.
The fat man originally said that he wanted to guard me and capture the Snow Maiden alive, but as soon as he finished eating, he fell asleep deeply.
I wrapped myself tightly in my clothes and held Tianyu in my arms, I didn't have any dirty thoughts in my heart at all, but when it was cold, it was the best way to keep warm.
Tianyu slept very unsteadily, and I smoothed her frowning brow. Then close your eyes and start sleeping.
I don't know how long I slept, but I heard someone call me. He slowly opened his eyes and stretched his head out of the passage.
The moonlight shone down like waves of water from the satin-like black night sky, reflecting on the woman standing in the middle of the snow, and I saw the light of fireflies fluttering around her. In the faint moonlight, her hazy appearance is stunningly beautiful. My heart seems to have fallen into the gentle country, and I can't find the north.
It's her, Snow Maiden. She walked slowly towards me with light steps.
Suddenly, a cold wind struck, and I couldn't help but shiver and saw the Snow Maiden with her sleeves fluttering. I knew she was coming for me. But at this time, it was attacked by a cold wind. My mind became very clear, and I sat down in the passageway, and instead of getting up and going out, I began to shake the bodies of the members of the Western Expedition, trying to wake them up.
As a result, everyone slept like dead pigs, and despite my vigorous shaking and shouting, not half of them got up. That's what I know in my heart. This is the Snow Maiden's doing. If it's a dream, I have to wake myself up. If it's not a dream. I can only wait and see what Snow Maiden will do next.
In the moment I thought, the Snow Maiden had floated lightly in front of me, and then crouched down and looked at me with affection, and I was immediately attracted by her eyes, and my eyes could not take their eyes off her face at all.
"Do you like me?" The Snow Maiden stared at me and said melodiously.
I secretly shouted "bad" in my heart, how can this plot be exactly the same as what Captain Chen said. I remember Captain Chen saying that the Snow Maiden would ask three questions to the person she liked, and if I refused now, she would drain me of my energy and die, and if I nodded and said "I like", then I might be taken away by her.
For a long time, I have never believed in the legend of the Snow Maiden, but I didn't expect it to be placed in front of me now and come true.
I will never impulsively refuse as soon as my brain is hot, and I will never be able to do such a thing as choosing death lightly when I am sober. But you can't go against the true thoughts of your heart, and you can't be ashamed of the rain and answer casually. What should we do in this situation of dying urgently?
Snow Girl's skin is better than snow, and her long eyelashes blink and blink, blink and wink, and as a result, I nodded unconsciously. By the time I came to my senses, it was too late, and all I saw was the white and empty snow valley, and there was silence and emptiness around me, and the Snow Maiden was long gone.
I was full of regret, but I was a little secretly glad that I had just escaped and inadvertently created a chance to escape with my life.
There is another day, as long as you find an escape exit with everyone on this day, you can escape from the snow valley and escape from the legend of the Snow Maiden.
Looking up at the night sky, I suddenly felt a poignant feeling.
Early in the morning, when everyone woke up, I told me about the Snow Maiden's visit again last night.
Tianyu immediately fell silent, and Captain Chen spoke first: "It seems that the Snow Maiden will only appear in the dead of night, for the safety of the Sven brothers, we can only keep vigil tonight without sleeping, and find a way to eliminate the Snow Maiden." β
The fat man pursed his lips and smacked his tongue and said, "Let's not talk about the things at night, for now we should try our best to find a way out from here, and the matter will not be solved at once." β
Kun Ba, who was sitting on the side, immediately agreed: "Brother Fat is right, the Snow Girl is a monster, we are all mortals, how can we fight her, of course, before it gets dark today, we can find a way to escape." β
When the fat man heard Kun Ba's speech, he snorted with his nose with disdain.
Kunba's stumbling subordinate has never spoken, and he is afraid that the fat man will scold him. But when he heard Kun Ba's mention, he immediately stumbled and said: "Yes, yes, my grandfather is right, first" As a result, before he finished his stumbling words, he was frightened by the fat man's sharp eyes.
Seeing that everyone was talking about it, the fifth master waved his hand to stop everyone's argument, and then slowly said, "It should be a two-pronged approach." First of all, we must first find a way, and then at the same time we must think about the garrison work for the night, and start from two sides, with the greatest hope, and the best effort, and prepare for the worst. β
After listening to this, everyone nodded their heads, and I, the party at the center of the incident, listened to the discussion with a relaxed face, and did not say a word from beginning to end.
I'm not worried, and I'm not afraid, because I don't have a sense of reality at all that Snow Maiden will harm people, and I always think it's just my own hallucination, but it makes people panic. Moreover, this matter is aimed at me personally, and if something happens, it will only sacrifice me, and the other members of the Western Expedition team can be spared, which makes me feel a lot more at ease.
Deep down, I'm ready for the worst!
The snow-covered valley is filled with nothing but dense forests that cannot be accommodated, and towering rock walls with majestic stone carvings of dragons that stretch down and then nothing else.
The dense forest in the snow valley is difficult to navigate, except for the thick snow and mossy wood fungus, and there are no small animals to be found, not even birds flying from above, which makes me wonder if there are abnormal creatures in this snow valley. Even if there is food in the dense forest, small animals such as gophers will not choose to move here.
But as far as the eye could see, there was no living thing in the open area of the valley except for us humans. The dense woods were impassable, and only small creatures like the red-haired vampire spirits could move freely through the dense jungle, but they seemed to be very afraid of the snow valley and did not dare to set foot here.
After looking around the outer circle of the dense forest in the snow valley for a week, I didn't find any passages, and if I wanted to enter the depths of the forest, I had to cut down the trees outside. It is impossible to cut down the thick trees, and there should be only a steep rock wall behind the depths of the woods, and it is difficult for us to climb out of the towering rock wall, and there is no need to find a way through the dense forest.
At this moment, we are undoubtedly trapped in the snow valley, and it is difficult to fly.
Disappointed, I walked back and saw Kun Hachi and Fat Man picking up wood. We didn't light a fire for two nights in the snow valley because the branches were soaked with snow and even frosty, and we couldn't make a fire at all. Even if we could light a fire, a lot of smoke would come out of the damp trees, and we would choke to death by the smoke in a narrow passage, so everyone endured the cold and did not make a fire.
But tonight the Snow Maiden is coming, to take my life, I have no choice, I must make a fire to light, maybe there is a fire, the Snow Maiden will not dare to approach lightly. However, this idea is inevitably a little too naΓ―ve.
Suddenly, I found that my status had risen to the top, and almost everyone was revolving around me, and in the blink of an eye, I felt as if I had become a king.
There was no way out in the snow valley, and I wanted to get up and get up at the entrance of the passage, so I told everyone that I wanted to go up and check it again, maybe the red-haired vampire spirit was no longer in the cave above.
Kun Batou stood up against it, and the fat man took the opportunity to squeeze him and said: "Kun Ye, since you are so worried about Lao Zheng's safety, you will go up and walk instead of him, what do you think?" β
When Kun Ba heard this, the mouse beard on his lips shook a few times very unnaturally, and then said with a smile: "Fat brother, I have this heart and this guts, but I don't have this ability, I'm afraid that I won't be able to come back after I go up." β
After hearing this, the fat man immediately snorted coldly with his nose, this was his consistent attitude towards Kunba, and Kunba also smiled and didn't care.
The crowd was still trying to persuade me, but I insisted on a trip, and the fat man had to agree to let me check it out, but he wanted to go with me.
I immediately shirked it in every possible way, for I felt that it was easier to go up alone than to go unnoticed, but to act better. But the fat man insisted on going together, so I had to nod my head in agreement. As a result, seeing that I agreed to accompany the fat man, Tianyu couldn't sit still again, and insisted on accompanying me together.
When the others saw this, they also got up, and I immediately felt a headache, so I said to the people, "You can go together, but I will go up first, and when I call you, you will go up again." (To be continued......)
