Volume 2 Adventures in Tibet Chapter 025 The Banshee's Bedroom
You have to be very careful when walking in this ice path, so we try to keep no more than a hand-to-hand distance between the two of us, and if you touch a crack or a hole in the ground, the person next to you can help.
Our plan is to find a relatively small and enclosed space, then bring the army of blood corpses inside, and once they are inside, we will proceed to destroy the spatial structure, bury them all alive inside, and turn them into ice sculptures.
I followed closely behind Sister Meng, holding on to the ice wall with one hand, while checking the terrain and leaving a way to escape. This ice cave can be said to be like a hornet's nest, full of holes and fist-sized pits.
These caves are due to the interaction between ice and water, after tens of millions of years, slowly eroded and formed, because of the characteristics of water flowing to a lower place, so the caves here have a commonality, all of them are inclined inward from the entrance of the cave, pointing to the belly of the mountain, forming an inclined channel made of ice. The place we are in now is inside this passage, and once those bloody corpses enter the passage, we don't even think about coming up again.
And the advantage of this is that we only need to block one end to trap them.
We came to a fork in the road again, and Sister Meng took a closer look at the entrance of the cave and immediately judged, "Go to the left." ”
Dadi followed behind Sister Meng, took out something in her bag and made a mark on the ice wall, and said, "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and make a road sign." ”
"Clever!" I immediately understood that a woman's mind is delicate.
There are many forks in the ice cave, and the ice walls that wrap around the cave are sometimes thick and sometimes thin, and we are like ants walking through the maze of anthills. When we came to a crack in the ice, the walls of the cave suddenly thickened like a huge rock of ice, which was split open by a giant axe, leaving a wedge-shaped passage for only one person to pass through.
The ice crevice in front of it is noticeably narrower, and all four people need to turn sideways to pass, and the roof of the cave is hung with ice cubes, and the stone walls are abruptly craggy.
"Be careful."
"The ice is cooler than regular ice, and it hurts like a pinprick when it falls into your clothes."
The passage in front of me was even narrower, and I had to hold my breath, but I couldn't help but wonder and asked, "How big is this hole?" ”
Squeezing out of the ice crevices, the cave suddenly opened up, countless pillars of light pierced through the top wall, and we no longer needed a flashlight to see the situation inside the cave. The dome is like a fastened lid of a pot, and the highest point is nearly 100 meters from where we are, and the ice shell about one to two meters thick wraps around the inner surface of the rock wall, and the rock wall itself has countless holes through which the sunlight reaches the hollow belly of the mountain.
"It's beautiful!" I couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"The time has come." Sister Meng said, "Look at the above, if these huge icicles fall down, they won't be shattered!" ”
When I looked up, I saw countless icicles hanging upside down in the dome, like swords pointing to the earth. Rather than icicles, they are more like mineral crystals, with a regular form, like spears reaching the dome, and when the sun's rays pass through, they transform into a rainbow of seven colors.
"It's a bargain for them, let them die in this beautiful place!" I was indignant.
"Don't say it's useless, it's too late if you don't do it!"
Behind him, Xu Qian had already lured the blood corpse over, and a few of us were standing on an abrupt ice platform, the shape of the platform was quite like a winged eagle with its tail into the cliff, and Xu Qian was standing in the position of the eagle's beak.
"Xiaoqian, be careful!" If Xu Qian's position was only two or three steps further, he would reach the edge of the ice cliff, and the bottom was bottomless, and the slightest cold air was rising, and he could only hear the sound of a roar similar to that of a fierce beast.
"Don't worry, you just have to prepare yourself!"
The ice surfaces under Xu Qian's feet are not completely roadless, but are connected by ice beams and ice bridges, but at first glance, it seems that there is nothing on them.
The terrain here is dangerous, and there is no way back. I saw that the ice above my head was as clear as crystal, and the ice beams, ice bridges and icicles were all over the cave like spider silk, and the snow-white cold air under the cracks was surging around the ice bridge like waves.
"Alright then, let's do without further ado!"
According to the preconceived idea, we have to find a way to detour back to the back of the blood corpses, overtake their back path, block them in this ice cave, and then use the icicles here to find a way to destroy the structural acceptance point of this space, and hundreds of tons of ice on it will collapse.
Xu Qian dragged these bloody corpses on the eagle's beak to buy us time, but in this way, she would be in danger. I was worried that she would lose alone, so I rushed forward desperately, while Dadi and Sister Meng divided up the group and began to plan, one trying to block the way, and the other struggling to destroy the structural stress point of the ice sheet.
If this matter is changed to move mountains and mountains to do it, it will naturally be captured, but Dadi is not a vegetarian, and this method of touching Captain Jin is also worthy of its name. Since ancient times, the golden lieutenant has been divided into gold and fixed points, and he has a unique ability, so it is not difficult to find this way.
Although we don't have explosives, the structure of the ice is particularly special, and if a certain point of force is damaged, the whole structure will be devastated. And I tried my best to fight against the tide of blood corpses with Xu Qian.
"Why are you here!" Xu Qian glared at me a little angrily, "Do you know how dangerous it is." ”
"Hehe, don't you really think I'm a soft egg who needs to be protected by a woman!"
Xu Qian stopped at me a few times, smiled slightly, and said, "You are my hero and my man!" ”
"Get ready!" At this moment, she heard Dati give a command.
Xu Qian split the arm of the bloody corpse with a sword and said to me, "Go over this ice beam, go down from here." ”
I watched the roar of the ground crack under the churning white mist, and asked cautiously, "What's down there?" ”
"It's too late to explain, jump!" Xu Qian pushed me, and I slipped down.
To say that this stinky girl is really bold, I am really not afraid of my life, under this ice beam is the underground undercurrent, to put it bluntly, it is the groundwater, the melting glacier in this way transports its own water to the tributaries, and then converges into a lake on the plateau, and there are also many glaciers The source is formed in this way.
However, we cannot determine the depth of this underground river, and even with the development of science, few people have the ability to survey the depth of the water in a credible way.
I didn't dare to be suspicious, so I immediately hugged the ice beam with my hand, and then slid a distance, because the blood corpse's footsteps were shaking, I moved on this ice beam step by step, and then fell into the water one after another. And this icy groundwater, once you fall into it, only takes three minutes, and it can freeze you permanently.
"It's dangerous!" I gasped.
Xu Qian turned her head, stared at me deliberately with sharp eyes, and said: "The glacier below will not freeze even if it is below zero degrees Celsius, and it only takes three minutes for the pores and blood vessels of the skin that come into contact with the ice water to shrink immediately, and all the superficial veins are frozen, the epidermis is inactivated, and then the nerves are paralyzed, and the deep muscle cells are out of control, and they are slowly frozen, stiffened, ossified, and died." ”
"So powerful?!" I looked at the bloody corpses behind me that had stumbled and fallen, and I felt both extremely happy and helpless.
Standing here, it is simply a step of heaven, a step of geography. We froze there, no more movement, the only thing we could move was our thighs, moving back and forth through our hips, moving our bodies forward and backward.
But time was running out, and Dadi picked up a half-meter-high ice pick and slammed it into an icicle, and for a while, the entire ice cave seemed to fall apart and collapsed. Ice ballast smashed down like a thunderstorm on his head.
"Let's go!" I pulled Xu Qian up, and at this time, I didn't care about how dangerous the ice beam under my feet was, so I ran all the way, hurriedly crossed a crack, and climbed up.
At this moment, Sister Meng and Dadi smashed the icicle at the entrance of the cave again, and the path for the bloody corpse to escape was about to be sealed. At this time, we did not dare to delay for a moment, and the four of us dodged the ice ballasts and the falling ice all the way, although this magnificent scene was very beautiful, which could not be expressed with pen and painting, but there was only one life, and we had no time to take care of it.
There was a loud bang, and as soon as we escaped with our front feet, the entire huge ice cave behind us collapsed, and the huge shock wave pushed us a few meters away. When we woke up, we found that we were being illuminated by the sun, such a scene, I could not imagine in my dreams, I was stunned by the scene in front of me, my eyes suddenly seemed to be immobilized, I couldn't even blink, I held my breath for more than a minute, before I took the first breath from my mouth, and muttered: "It's unimaginable." This, this is simply ......."
Before I could finish sighing, Dadi got up behind me, rubbed her head and asked, "What's wrong?" Is there no road ahead? ”
When she opened her eyes, she also had a stunned expression, and only after a while did she say, "I'm not dreaming!" ”
"Not dreaming!"
We were in a state of brilliance, and after the ice sheet collapsed, a rare ice casting wonder was revealed below the upper ice sheet. Sunlight shines through the ice, shining with colorful glow. If you can watch it again in your lifetime, you will never forget it.
This spectacle is like a holy snow-capped mountain, which makes people unconsciously purify their hearts, and in front of them, everyone is willing to bow their noble heads, and do pious repentance and prayer in their hearts. I am reminded of a poem by the ancients, "Don't dare to raise your voice, fear of frightening the heavenly people", this poem best reflects the current state of mind, and everyone is immersed in an emotion of shock and humility.
When the four of us were breathing carefully, we were surprised to see that there was an ice sculpture building in this icicle wonder. However, if you look closely, you will find that this building is not like nature, there are doors and households, windows and doors, this is like a gorgeous palace.
"Damn, this can't be the banshee's dormitory."
