Chapter 949: The World Under the Ice (Thanks to Hall Master Reincarnation on the Other Side 113)
Huo Chi saw that the two girls had recovered a little, so he stood up and pulled the two of them up: "You have no injuries other than superficial bruises, right?"
"I'm fine, Huo Chi, what about you, are you injured?" Su Qingqing looked at the damaged marks on Huo Chi's clothes and frowned slightly.
"I'm fine, it's all down the hill. Huo Chi rolled up his sleeves, and his self-healing ability made all the small scars on his body disappear, even the needle prick scars caused by touching the snow caterpillar just now were all gone.
Su Qingqing saw that Huo Chi was indeed not injured, and her tense nerves finally relaxed slightly, but this relaxation reminded her of the incident that had loosened Huo Chi due to suffocation just now.
"Huo Chi, I'm sorry, I just ... Su Qingqing blamed herself very much for this matter: "If it weren't for me, we wouldn't have fallen." ”
"I don't blame you, if it weren't for those bugs, you wouldn't have let go. Huo Chi gently patted her shoulder and comforted: "Moreover, although we fell, we were not injured, this place is much warmer than the ground, and it seems to be good." ”
"Huo Chi... Su Qingqing wanted to say something, but when she saw Huo Chi's generous smile, she nodded silently.
Huo Chi knew that this girl would not forgive herself for a while, although she didn't deliberately let go of him just now, she wouldn't forgive herself immediately, it was better to let her slowly return to calm.
"These broken insects are too hateful!" Patassas on the side saw Su Qingqing blaming himself, and couldn't help but say, "If it weren't for these broken insects, we wouldn't have fallen, and Master wouldn't have come down!"
As she spoke, she hatefully kicked a few motionless insects on the ground, and Huo Chi couldn't help but be curious when he saw that Patassas had stepped on them several times in a row, and these insects were still not moving.
"It's strange, why do these bugs look like they're dead after they come down?" Huo Chi crouched down and carefully touched one of the bugs.
"It's completely stiff, is it really dead?" Huo Chi found that the insects now were completely different from what they had just touched, and the snow caterpillars that were still attached to Su Qingqing's body just now became as stiff as wood, and they could even make a "bang" sound when struck.
"Abu, are these bugs dead?" Although these snow caterpillars were inedible, Huo Chi was still very curious.
Why? They're just falling from above, and these insects don't suppose they die for this reason, they're tough creatures that can survive after cutting.
"They're hot and stiff. Abu replied simply.
"Hot, not frozen?" Huo Chi was a little puzzled: "Could it be that they are afraid of higher temperatures?"
"Yes, these bugs can stay active below freezing, the lower the temperature they get, if the temperature exceeds freezing, their bodies will ossify, but if the temperature exceeds seventy, they will rejuvenate. "Asermon.
"What strange monsters, they are not adapted to temperatures from zero to seventy degrees, but are sensitive to low and high temperatures. Huo Chi said: "In this way, wouldn't this thing not be able to survive under normal conditions at all." ”
"It's not that they won't survive, it's just that they're temporarily in a dormant state, and when the ambient temperature is right, they will come back to life. Abu said, "Well, let's add this to the guide as well!"
"Hey, what are you standing here in a daze?" Patassas' voice rang in his ears.
"Uh... I'm thinking about how we're going to get back to the surface. Huo Chi scratched his hair, only to find that the hat on his head had long since flown away.
"My master still doesn't know where it is, hurry up and help me find it. Patassas remembered the white fox and hurriedly searched for it nearby.
By the way, I almost forgot about Mr. White Fox. Huo Chi hurriedly joined the search for the white fox with Su Qingqing, but the ground nearby was full of light green moss, and there was no trace of Mr. White Fox.
He fell down first, about half a minute before everyone else, where could he fall?
Huo Chi raised his head and looked at the ice not far overhead. These thick layers of ice look dark and may have been here for a long, long time.
The surface of the ice is slowly melting due to the temperature, and every now and then a drop or two of the melted ice water falls to the ground, giving the mosses exactly the necessary moisture.
But what are those glowing objects in the ice? Even standing here, Huo Chi can still see the bits of light in the depths of the ice, which are reflected and refracted in the ice, slightly illuminating the world under the ice.
Although the light in this place was not very ideal, with a little glimmer of light, Huo Chi and the others could see this strange under-ice world clearly.
The space formed by the melting ice seems to be boundless at a glance, the thick ice layer is more like being suspended in mid-air, and I don't know how many ice caves are connected to this hollow, Huo Chi is constantly discovering more ice cave exits in the process of looking for the white fox.
It seems that most of the ice caves on the snow-capped mountains are connected by this hollow, and I wonder if there is a passage here that can get out of the snowy mountains, and if there is, it would be great.
"Master, is that you?!—— Huo Chi, come here, my master, he's here!" At this moment, Patassas, who was wandering around, finally found the white fox that fell first.
When Huo Chi and Su Qingqing heard this, they immediately ran over quickly. The white fox was lying quietly on the moss at this time, looking as if he was asleep.
Patassas squatted down in concern and shook the white fox vigorously a few times: "Master, Master, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? Are you hurt?"
"Oh hey, you light, I'm just resting!" The white fox suddenly opened his eyes, he sat up, and glared at the sugar glider: "If you work harder, I'm going to be injured if I'm not hurt!"
"Mr. White Fox, why are you so far away from us?" Huo Chi couldn't help but look back at the place where they fell just now, it was already nearly two kilometers away from here, how could they fall from the same hole, and it could be so far apart?
"Uh... I thought I was the only one who had fallen, so I wanted to find a way. The white fox said with some embarrassment: "Look for it, I really can't see any marks in this place, I'm tired enough, just lie here and rest for a while, who knows that you have also come down, I knew that I would not leave that place." ”
Huo Chi looked at the white fox's embarrassed smile, knowing that this Dao Bone Immortal Wind subhuman should be lost again, the more he got lost, the more anxious he became, and the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't return to his original place, so he was tired and lay down so far away.
