Chapter 3: The Flower of Death in Bloom in the Ice Field

The rumbling thunder shattered the silence of the night, and the penetrating lightning swept across the deep sky.

In an instant, the wind roared and the rain poured down.

If you look closely, in the violent thunderstorm, there is a person sitting cross-legged.

His long hair was flying, and his clothes were fluttering, but he couldn't see his face clearly.

Lightning slashed towards the people in the thunderstorm.

Crackling.

There was a sound, and in the thunderstorm, the body was shattered and turned into a blood mist.

"Ahh Bai Shu was awakened by a terrifying and strange nightmare again.

At this moment, Bai Shu was short of breath and sweating profusely. When the people turned into blood mist in the thunderstorm, Bai Shu only felt that there seemed to be a beat missed in his heart, as if he had lost something.

Looking at the time, it was already the middle of the night. Bai Shu's mind was very confused, obviously, under the torture of the nightmare, Bai Shu's sleepiness was gone.

"Are you going to Jiulong Mountain tomorrow?" Bai Shu looked at his phone, and there was a message from Bai Jing on it.

"Huh. It's okay, I haven't been to Jiulong Mountain for a long time. ”

At the same time, the polar expedition research team number GD1748.

"Dean, Dean. A young scientist came running and said, "We've found the ice sculpture." It is a complete ice sculpture. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Haiping paused slightly, and said, "A complete ice sculpture, can you be sure?"

"Yes. "We're sure it is." ”

"Take me there. ”

Zhang Haiping put down the report and followed the researchers.

After walking about 500 meters, Zhang Haiping finally came to the team.

"Oh. Thank goodness you're finally here. David laughed.

Zhang Haiping nodded, and then turned around and said, "Xiao Liu, where is the ice sculpture?"

"Report to the dean, about two hundred meters ahead, there is an ice cave, and our people found ice sculptures in it. ”

"Is there danger in the ice cave?" Zhang Haiping asked.

"Nope. We've all been inside, and there's nothing but ice sculptures. Xiao Liu replied, "There is more than one ice sculpture. ”

"Then have you moved these ice sculptures?" Zhang Haiping asked again.

"Nope. Xiao Liu shook his head, "In order to avoid damaging the clues, we didn't act rashly. ”

"Hmm. Zhang Haiping nodded, "You did the right thing." Let's go, let's go check it out first. ”

The ice cave was not far away, and Zhang Haiping and the researchers went in together.

The ice cave was very large, and the upside-down ice spikes hung above everyone's heads like a sharp sword, and the top of the ice spikes shimmered with cold light.

The inside of the cave was not as dark as expected, but because of the refracted beam of ice, it was a little bright inside.

"It's not like a natural cave. Zhang Haiping said to himself, "On the contrary, it seems to be artificially excavated." ”

"So, who can dig such a huge cave in such an environment?" Zhang Haiping pondered.

"Dean. Xiao Liu shouted, "We've arrived." ”

"Oh, good. ”

Only then did Zhang Haiping come back to his senses from his contemplation.

This is the deepest part of the ice cave, and the ice sculptures seem to be frozen in the depths of the ice.

The ice sculptures come in a variety of forms, from exotic beasts with teeth and claws to humanoid species with closed eyes, all of which are lifelike, like living creatures, with a total of nine bodies.

"It's unbelievable that there are so many ice sculptures. Zhang Haiping sighed, "This craftsmanship is really ingenious." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Haiping looked at the ice sculptures in the ice cave, and suddenly saw the center of the nine ice sculptures, where a piece of ice had sunken down.

"Was that ice sculpture from seventeen years ago supposed to be here?"

Zhang Haiping pushed his glasses and thought about what he should do next.

"Dean, what should we do?" said a young scientist.

"Explore with a life detector to see if the statues have any signs of life. ”

After the researchers tested them one by one, there were no signs of life in the ice sculptures.

Report. One of the scientists replied, "Dean, none of these ice sculptures have detected any signs of life. ”

"Could it be that it has been frozen for too long and the body functions have disappeared? Zhang Haiping muttered to himself.

Then he spoke again, "Use the penetrator to see if there is anything else hidden inside." ”

"Nope. ”

"Good. Then dig through the ice and bring the nine ice sculptures back to the base for study. Zhang Haiping said.

"Dean, could these ice sculptures be deliberately sealed here, and should the ice be excavated? Xiao Ke asked.

"Seal?" Zhang Haiping smiled, "This word should exist in legends and myths." Remember, we are all atheists, hehe, Xiaoke, your ideological consciousness needs to be improved. ”

"But, don't you feel it, Dean? These ice sculptures all have hideous faces, and there is a chilling light in their eyes......

"Xiao Ke. There are no gods in this world, let alone ghosts, and the reason why you feel that these ice sculptures are terrible is because you have fear in your heart. As long as you get over it, you won't feel anything to fear these ice sculptures. Zhang Haiping said.

"I see you're tired too, so you can go back to the car and rest first. Zhang Haiping said.

"Alright, comrades, let's dig. ”

"Yes. ”

Bell, bell, bell.

The sound of ice digging through the cavern echoed one after another.

After more than two hours, the scientific research team finally dug up all the ice sculptures.

After digging out, the ice sculpture seems more and more realistic.

"Take it back with you. Zhang Haiping looked at it for a moment before he spoke, "For the sake of safety, let a team carry out first and see if there are any special changes." ”

"Yes. The people answered.

Xiao Liu first walked out with a few scientific researchers, and this time, under the sunlight, the ice sculpture did not happen seventeen years ago.

"Report the dean. Xiao Liu returned to the cave, "There is nothing abnormal about the ice sculpture. ”

"Good. Zhang Haiping nodded, "Comrades, it's hard work." Let's leave one team at a time. ”

Half an hour later, the last team finally walked out of the ice cave with the ice sculpture.

The cold sunlight shone on the nine ice sculptures of different shapes.

Gradually, all the ice sculptures appeared with strange symbols.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

There was a strange sound from the ice sculptures.

"What's wrong?"

"It's an ice sculpture. ”

"The ice sculpture is making a noise. ”

"Is there really something wrong with these ice sculptures?"

"Look, there's a symbol on the ice sculpture. ”

"Yes, there are these, every one of them. ”

......

Zhang Haiping frowned, "Could it be that there is really a problem with these ice sculptures?"

In the midst of everyone's discussions, the ice sculpture suddenly shattered, turned into ice chips, and flew in all directions.

However, after the ice sculpture shattered, not a single teenager or other living object jumped out.

"Look, there are flowers. A scientist pointed to the place where the ice chips fell.

The black flowers with a unique fragrance quietly bloom.

After a while, the frozen white snow field was full of black flowers.

The black petals of the flowers suddenly spread out on the ice field, and the cold wind blew the flowers, and the fragrance spread everywhere. Pollen flutters in the air.

"Ah......h

Everyone was shocked to see a scientific researcher who was close to the black flower, and his body was decomposing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Help, help, save me, save me, save me. The young scientist looked at the crowd with desperate eyes, but before he could get a response, he became a pile of bones.

Then, one after another, people lost their lives in the same way.

Despair, pain.

The crimson blood added a brilliant color to the ice field.

"Yes, yes, it's the flower of death. ”

"Run. ”

"I don't want to die. I don't want to die yet. ”

"Oh my God, am my David going to die in this place today?"

......

The young scientist was frightened, crying and panicking.

Zhang Haiping frowned, pondered, and suddenly shouted, "It's pollen, it's pollen." ”

The sky was full of black pollen, and the wind was blowing towards them.

"Run, run where there's no wind. Zhang Haiping said again.

Everyone did not dare to hesitate, and immediately ran in the direction of the cave.

But the wind is fast, and the pollen spreads quickly, and one after another, the scientists' bodies decay and turn into white bones.

Pools of red blood bloomed like flowers on the ice field.
