Chapter 19: White Wolf Attack
Jiao Ba's face was extremely bad, "That's right, according to the wisdom of the Ice Demon, it is entirely possible that it will be like this, along the way, they are all planning how to kill us, but by mistake, they have failed these times, the ancestors bless, I hope that Mai Lao and they can all turn evil into good fortune." ”
The big man suddenly interjected at this time and said, "Li Xin, in fact, before I met you, I and Zhongyi met the Ice Demon, the Ice Demon became your appearance, and then we were injured, when Zhongyi went out to chase it, I saw you, I almost shot at you at that time, if it wasn't for Zhongyi who kept stopping me, I might have killed you by mistake, presumably this is also a ploy of the Ice Demon." "I really didn't expect this big man to analyze things.
Li Xin looked at me with gentle eyes again, and I was a little embarrassed to say, "Don't look at me like that, I'm just"
"I know the truth, thank you for your loyalty." Before I could finish my sentence, she slowly took my hand and said.
I smiled embarrassedly, and I didn't understand what she knew, anyway, seeing that Li Xin was safe and sound, my hanging heart was put down, as for Jenny, I guess she didn't need me to worry about it, with Martin here, I don't think people need me very much.
"Okay, don't thank you for now, Brother Yi, what should we do now?" Junko asked, looking at me.
"What can I do, continue to set off, we have to find Mai Lao and them quickly, by the way, Li Xin, Mai Lao, are they going all the way forward?" I crouched down and began to pack up.
Li Xin nodded and said, "Well, it should be, listen to his meaning, he is going to move all the way along this ice city, but I don't know what exactly lies ahead." ”
"Then get ready to go, big man, or you're still the one who has the iron mask on your back." This task has to be given to him.
"Huh? Me again? I've carried it all the way. "The big guy was a little reluctant.
I patted him on the shoulder and said, "You have a good physique, just work hard, I'll exchange Jiao Ba and you when you're tired." ”
We packed everything up, and everybody's guns were reloaded, but at the moment we didn't have enough ammunition in our hands, almost half of them were gone, and it seemed that it was worse than I expected, and we didn't have to go far before we ran out of ammunition, which was not a good thing.
When I walked to the street, I realized that the place where we were just now was actually a civilian residence, a relatively large courtyard, not very far from the location of the previous green building, we were relatively lucky, during the rest of the time, the ice demons did not come to visit us, if they suddenly appeared at that time, a few of us may not be able to get out.
The sky outside is still gloomy, there is no sunlight in it, the sky and the ground are the same color, all white, but the sky is closer to gray, and even sometimes I have difficulty distinguishing between heaven and earth, which is a place that is easy to give people illusions.
It's not that dark here, but the sight is not good, and the red snowflakes are still floating in the sky, which is the most incomprehensible thing for me, where did this thing come from? Why did it disappear after it landed? I don't even feel it except that it affects our vision.
"How long has it been snowing? Why hasn't it stopped? I asked, pausing and looking up at the gray sky.
"It's been a while, what the hell is this? Can you explain? Junzi turned his head and asked Jiao Ba.
Jiao Ba sneered and said, "I can't explain it, I'm not an encyclopedia, how can I understand so much, everyone better be careful, this red snow is not a good thing, let's go." ”
As we walked along the street, there was no cold wind, no fog, and there was silence all around us, except for the falling red snowflakes, and this tranquility was like a prelude to a storm.
The whole city is a dead silence, I can't feel the breath of a living person here, it's really similar to what Jiao Ba said, this place is like a ghost gate to hell, which makes people feel cold.
The road ahead is not clear at all, and the farther we look, the more blurred it becomes, and it feels like a veil of mystery is shrouded, and we don't have an end, just follow the route on the chart, all the way forward.
I walked for more than half an hour, but no one said a word along the way, the atmosphere seemed very dull, everyone walked forward with their heads down, and sometimes observed the surrounding situation, everyone's expression was very serious, and the guns were all clenched in their hands, this atmosphere was very bad, and everyone's spirit was a little too nervous.
"Why don't you speak?" I walked at the front and asked them with a sideways face.
The others looked at me, but they still didn't say a word, the big man and Junko continued to walk with their heads bored, and Jiao Ba and Chang Shan were swinging their heads back and forth, always in the best state of alert.
Li Xin has always been next to me, but she didn't say a word, along the way, I haven't heard them say a word, even when on the island, the big guy sometimes teases the boring son, even if it is dangerous, it will not be so dull.
"Hey, I mean, you're all dumb? Why don't you say a word? I stopped and turned to look at them.
But these guys were good, they didn't exist at all, and walked directly past me, just like the walking dead, without any emotions in them, and I was stunned at once.
I stood in place, stunned for more than ten seconds, and then Li Xin turned around and called me, "Zhongyi, what are you in a daze, hurry up." ”
I answered, and hurriedly chased after me, "You finally spoke, I thought you were dumb." After I caught up with Li Xin, I whispered in her ear.
Li Xin said expressionlessly, "It's not that I'm dumb, it's that none of them speak, it seems that everyone is very nervous." ”
I stopped again, turned around and said, "Eighth brother, Brother Changshan, what's wrong with you?" It's been all the way, and you haven't even said a word. ”
Jiao Hachi stopped, looked at me and said, "What do you want us to say?" ”
I casually said, "It's okay to say anything, it's better than not saying a word at all, it feels like a bunch of dead people, not alive at all." ”
"You're dead, what is there to say?" Jiao Ba glared at me and said.
"Zhongyi, don't make trouble, now is not the time to chat, let's hurry up, Mai Lao, they are still uncertain." After Chang Shan finished speaking, he passed past me and continued to hurry.
The big man walked up to me with an iron mask on his back, patted me on the shoulder and said, "Young man, you have to endure loneliness." The grandson had an elder's tone, as if he was teaching a lesson.
I was angry and was just about to refute him, Li Xin grabbed my wrist, "Forget about loyalty, let them go, now everyone is in no mood to speak, there is danger everywhere here, it's better to be cautious." ”
"Of course I know that it's very dangerous here, but I feel that everyone's mentality is too heavy, you look at them, everyone is nervous, this is very physically exhausting."
People's mentality is very important, if the nerves always maintain a sense of tension, it may be very effective in the short term, but after a long time, the human body will not be able to stand it, and it will be much faster than the speed of fatigue under normal circumstances, which is an overload operation, once it really encounters trouble, it is easy to make mistakes.
"But" As soon as Li Xin spoke, her words were stuck, her face was still smiling, but in an instant it became gloomy, she stared at me with frightened eyes, and her breathing began to be short.
I immediately felt a chill coming from behind me, could it be that the ice demon was standing behind me? I still stiffened and asked, "Hey, what's wrong with you?" Talking? ”
Li Xin glanced at me, slowly stretched out his hand, pointed to the front and said, "There is something behind you and behind you." ”
I glanced at her, clenched the gun in my hand, and turned around sharply, and more than ten meters behind me, there was a white wolf staring at me, its beast's eyes, emitting a faint blue light.
It didn't move, it squatted in front like a sculpture, the fangs in its mouth were clearly visible, as if it was staring at its prey, I looked left and right with my peripheral vision, there were no other white wolves around, only this one, it seemed that it wanted to die early.
"Zhongyi, will it always follow us?" Li Xin asked in a whisper behind me.
I don't know when this ghost thing appeared, but it's really possible that it is following us all the way, how many white wolves are there? I can't kill it all for anything.
Or is it that there are countless of these ghosts, even if we run out of bullets, we can't kill them all, and what does the sudden appearance of this white wolf mean? I don't know anything else, but it's certainly not a good intention.
No matter, let's kill it first, just as I was about to shoot, suddenly, a 'bang' gunfire passed through my ears, the white wolf started very fast, when the gun rang out, it immediately fled, I didn't even see which way it ran towards.
At this time, the big man ran up to me and scolded, "Damn, let this beast run away." "Presumably he should have fired that shot just now.
Jiao Ba and Chang Shan also rushed over, "Brother Yi, why are you in a daze?" Jiao Ba finally said something useful.
I shook my head and said, "Oh, it's okay, I just don't understand, why did the white wolf follow us all the way?" ”
"Whatever, if he dares to come again, I'll solve it with one shot." The big man said with a rifle in his hand and a big grin.
"It's better to save some bullets, haven't you noticed, these white wolves can be killed no matter how they are killed, it seems that they can't be killed at all." I looked at everyone and voiced my concerns.
