Chapter 031 The road is frozen to death

What happened was a bit beyond everyone's expectations. I originally thought that I could get rid of the entanglement of the monsters and rest here for a while before moving on. But when you see the appearance of Ye Chongqing, you know that things have become more and more serious. Of course, you have to take into account that the emergence of Ye Chongqing itself has great doubts.

"Sister Qi, what should I do now?" I was at a loss.

"It's not a good place to stay here for a long time, Lin Kun, you have to carry Ye Lao and leave as soon as possible." Si Weiqi said.

I nodded, picked up Ye Chongqing on my back, and hurried away from the tree. We planned to use the rappel to return to the top of the peak, but now there is one more person, Ye Chongqing, which is actually a burden. It is not easy to go up, let alone bring a dying person up.

Fortunately, the people from Ye Chongqing also prepared rappel ropes when they came down, and there were several spare ropes on them. By using these ropes to get Ye Chongqing up, although it took some effort, it was not impossible.

"Be careful." Si Weiqi reminded Lin Kun while ascending through "Jumar" (Note 1), "I feel like something is wrong here!"

"Well, I also feel something is wrong, but I can't tell what's wrong." I said immediately.

"Okay, okay, let's hurry up. If something happens halfway, it will be even more troublesome." Chen Ziyue urged.

We speeded up unconsciously. The ascent and descent of rappelling is different from mountain climbing. When descending, it is like an adventure. The road ahead is unknown. And the process of ascent is also full of dangers. Not only does it need to overcome the factor of its own gravity, but it also requires good and Stable controllability, otherwise, unpredictable situations may easily occur.

However, when we finally reached the top of the mountain, something even more unexpected happened.

I saw several people lying in a mess on the beast-killing platform, and no suspicious clues were found near the platform. The platform was empty, and there was no movement except for the misty clouds.

"This..." Wokun stopped unconsciously.

"These people should be brought by Mr. Ye, they..."

"Go and have a look."

Wekun checked around and found no traces of fighting. Ye Chongqing brought a group of people here. He should know what kind of place this is. All the people he brought are definitely not the kind of people who just sit back and wait to be killed. Unless The opponent has an overwhelming advantage or makes a sneak attack, and it is a sneak attack that succeeds in one blow.

After walking around for two times, I came back and shook my head and said, "I still can't tell."

Chen Ziyue tugged on my clothes and made a movement of fanning her nose. I immediately understood and sucked in the air hard, but I still couldn't smell anything. On the contrary, Si Weiqi frowned and closed her eyes as if she was feeling it. What, when she opened her eyes, she exhaled softly and said, "There is a sour smell in the air. It is very light. If you don't smell it carefully, you can't even notice it."

I looked at her doubtfully, while Chen Ziyue on the side seemed to agree with what Si Weiqi said and nodded at me repeatedly.

"What do you mean? Is there something wrong with my nose?" I asked confused.

"That's not what I meant." Chen Ziyue smiled, "I can only say that my nose is more sensitive than yours."

Si Weiqi saw a gas mask lying on the ground, picked it up, raised it towards us and said, "It seems to be similar to what I thought. I speculate that something in the dark secretly attacked them. A sour-smelling gas was released in the air. Someone smelled the smell and immediately went to look for a gas mask. However, this sour-smelling gas was very effective and knocked out everyone present in an instant and then took them away. "

"That's right, there aren't any bullet marks or scratches here, and these people shouldn't be easygoing. It's almost impossible to defeat them head-on, but it doesn't make sense if they don't leave any traces." After that, I picked something out of my luggage. He took out a gas mask and held it in his hand, and said, "In case the three of us are also attacked by this acidic gas, it is best to put on a mask and act. Since there are still people in the dark, these indicators may follow at any time. Come here."

"Sister Qi, look." Chen Ziyue suddenly saw strange ice-like frost on these corpses.

The frost is very thin and covers the skin of the corpse. If you don't look carefully, you can't find it at all. I tried to touch it, and found that the frost only looked like frost, but was actually more like a layer of ice-like powder.

"Did these people freeze to death?" Chen Ziyue asked doubtfully.

"The meat of Zhumen's dogs stinks, and there are bones frozen to death on the road. This is really a strange thing."

"Everyone, please be brighter with your moves." Si Weiqi reminded.

"Understood!" Lin Kun searched some usable equipment from these people, including three Herstal P90s and several umbrella knives.

After putting on gas masks, the three of us continued on the road with the weak Ye Chongqing. The three of us walked cautiously along the way. As soon as I reached the steep slope, I saw a large number of bones again. I touched the bones lightly and they melted at the touch. It seems that they must be as old as the dragon burial pit.

With a livid face, Si Weiqi pointed at a white head with the tip of her sword and said, "These corpses are different from the ones we saw when we first came here, be careful!"

"What?" After hearing this, I quickly turned on my flashlight and shined it towards the bones on the ground.

I couldn't help but feel horrified, and then my face turned pale and I said, "I'll go, this..."

Suddenly, a gray-black shadow rolled over from one side, and I quickly protected Chen Ziyue to dodge. When the thing's limbs landed on the ground, in the blink of an eye, it was like blowing up a balloon, rapidly expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye, and became as if A calf, especially the sharp claws on its limbs, is seven to eight centimeters long.

There were two "bang bangs" and I fired immediately. Since the Herstal P90 adopts a bullpup structure, the center of gravity of the gun body is placed close to the grip and closer to the shooter, which facilitates one-handed operation and allows for faster and more flexible pointing changes. The fixed stock also improves reaction speed and shooting accuracy in emergency situations.

Before the monster could open its body and roar, a stream of bullets quickly penetrated its head, entering from the left and exiting from the right. A stream of dirty blood spread to the ground, and the Tianling Cap on its head flew away. .

I put down the muzzle of the gun, which was still smoking, and shouted, "What is this?!"

"犼!" Si Weiqi's words made my back feel cold.

"Hit him on the head!" I shouted hurriedly.

In fact, it was a little late for me to shout. After these calf-sized dogs were shot a few more times, they immediately rushed up like runaway mad dogs regardless of casualties. One of them fell down just after being shot, and a second one immediately followed. Just make it up.

The Herstal P90 did not have a butt, so I could only swing it up and hit it with all my strength. I hit a harpoon on the mouth with its teeth and claws, but I was also knocked away and fell to the ground. By the time I got up, I was already Two more people came up, and I was about to ask others to help, but I found that Si Weiqi couldn't tell the difference at all, and Chen Ziyue had a little difficulty in protecting herself.

Suddenly, there was wind in my ears, and I immediately became alert. I immediately rolled on the spot, picked up the knife sheath tied to my leg, pulled out the knife and slashed into the air. A black shadow suddenly rushed forward to fill the empty space. The blade of the blade intersected with its front jawbone, making a crunching sound that made people feel teeth. Half of the blade sank in. The cut was too deep, and half of the blade was stuck. On its bones, the cat screamed, and its head, along with the knife and me holding the knife handle, struggled to swing back and forth in place.

"Fuck your grandma!" I yelled angrily, but then the whole rope was like a roller coaster, rolling up and down on the ground. I cursed in my heart, "Your sister, this guy is so strong. If he keeps going like this, he will be beaten." If it bites it to death, it will be thrown to death!"

Thinking of this, I quickly let go of my hand and rolled my body on the ground twice before stopping. As a result, before I could get up and stand still, the brown-haired hawk with the knife stuck in its mouth had already rushed in front of me. Since I had lost my knife and I didn't have a submachine gun in my hand, I had no way to fight back and stop its attack.

Being so frightened, my whole body fell down again. Without thinking, I immediately rolled and crawled to touch the gun that fell on the ground in front of me.

Suddenly, Chen Ziyue and Si Weiqi were heard shouting from behind, "Lin Kun, be careful behind you!"

"Fuck!" His hand just touched the handle of the gun, and he felt a chill on his neck. The next second, he felt a heart-breaking pain in the back of his neck. He felt several cold, thick and sharp things pierce into his skin, and even It was almost biting the neck bone.

"Lin Kun!" Chen Ziyue was so shocked that she broke into a cold sweat.

I immediately raised the handle of the gun and pointed it at the side of my face with my backhand. Without any hesitation, I fired more than a dozen bullets from the chamber. The bullets flew out and brought up the wind, blowing the hair on my forehead. I heard more than a dozen pops. The sound of bullets entering flesh.

The back of his neck suddenly relaxed, and he heard a whimpering cry from behind him. He didn't care that his neck was still bleeding. He quickly got up and turned around to face the injured brown-haired dog struggling on the ground. He aimed the gun at its head and inflated it a few more times. After firing the bullets, they all went into the eye sockets. After a few twitches, he died.

Note:

1. JUMAR: A type of ascender. The Ascender was originally a tool used by the German Army Mountain Division to climb rock and ice walls. It was named JUMAR, so it is also called "JUMAR". Type ascender". As long as one person climbs the rock wall first, the successor can use it to climb up. It is mainly used for ascending on steep terrain, used in conjunction with safety belts and main ropes when ascending or protecting during caving. In addition, the ascender is also an important part of the hauling system, usually replacing the "claw rope" (also known as the "chicken claw rope", or "Prusik"). It is the core equipment used by firefighting and rescue agencies to pull heavy objects when handling accidents. It plays the role of a "repeated lifting" device in the lifting system.
