"Well... it seems like a big fish." Fang Zi narrowed his eyes and said.

There is a wall, behind the wall is the cold sea water, and there are swimming fish. Just when several people can see clearly, the fish swims away slowly, and the silence is restored behind the wall, but everyone's face becomes bad.

This thick ice wall is obviously a layer of frozen sea water. They don't know how deep the sea is, but since the sea water behind the ice wall is already in a thawed state, it means that the ice wall here may melt sometime. , here, should not stay for a long time.

"Keep going." Shi Shang Zuo touched the ice wall.

"If we keep going, will we go straight into the deep sea?" Lu Nan asked worriedly.

Shi Shang said, "The chance of this is very small, don't worry, if the situation is not right, we will return."

The ice slide was impossible to go up, and the only way out for everyone was in these caves, so they had no choice but to keep going, but fortunately, as they walked, everyone found that the terrain in the cave seemed to be upward, and the slope was steep. Getting higher and higher, after discovering this, everyone's faces began to show joy.

There were originally regular footsteps in the passage, but gradually, it seemed that there was something more, and a few people began to breathe quickly and quicken their steps. Wu Xiajiu turned his head to look at the ice wall, and there were sea fish in the ice wall. There were also shadows of a few of them. Looking back, apart from the figures of some passengers, there was nothing at first glance, but upon closer inspection, there seemed to be something snow-white moving on the blurred ice wall.

"Did you see it?" Wu Xiajiu whispered, bumping Shi Shangzuo's arm.

"I see, they are also looking for opportunities." Shi Shang pointed to the people reflected on the ice wall, and the passengers at the back obviously noticed something, with a hint of panic on their faces, but no one called out. , but kept calm and quickened his pace, pulling out the distance.

But the unknown object lying on the ground behind him also moved, and the goal was to follow closely. Finally, it caught up with the last person, and suddenly stretched out a hand, grabbing that person bare feet.

"Ah!" The person at the back screamed uncontrollably and kicked him away.

That thing was lying in the snow, and after being kicked away, it revealed its figure. It was a human-shaped ice sculpture, and its whole body seemed to be carved out of ice. The other unknown creatures following behind also stopped moving, and then, in the eyes of everyone, they slowly emerged from the snow, all of them were ice-sculpted human figures.

Facing the expressionless and cold faces, everyone picked up self-defense tools in defense, and the two sides confronted each other. Finally, the one who was kicked to the ground moved first, and rushed towards the crowd, slashing with a sharp dagger. On its body, there was only the sound of shattering ice, and a little bit of ice fell, and the ice sculpture seemed to be fine.

"Run forward!" Someone yelled, and the crowd stopped confronting each other head-on, and ran towards the cave at an accelerated speed.

The defense of the ice sculptures was astonishing, and everyone couldn't destroy them, but they stood up very slowly, and their limbs were a little stiff because of the ice, but as they ran, they found that those ice sculpture-like people were lying on the ground again. On the ground, the speed actually accelerated this time.

"Damn, is this competition skating?!" Fang Zi glanced back and found the strange appearance of those ice sculptures, and led Professor Zhou to speed up his pace.

The slope became more and more steep, and at the end there was a direct upward trend, and the light gradually appeared in front of it. Obviously, if you work harder, the exit will be in front of you.

But because the ground is all ice and the slope is trembling, everyone is running very hard now, no, it should not be said that they ran, but they have the idea of ​​running, but they can only climb up under their feet, and the speed is slow They came down, but their speed slowed down, which did not mean that the speed of the ice sculptures behind them also slowed down, so the last person was finally thrown down by the ice sculpture man when he slipped down inadvertently.

"save……!"

Before the rescue word was finished, the ice sculpture that fell on him suddenly opened its mouth wide. It was a normal mouth shape, but now it opened very wide, with sharp teeth protruding from it, and then bit the passenger. On his neck, there was a tooth-piercing click sound. Starting from the neck, ice-blue bloodshots appeared on the passenger's skin, and gradually spread to his face. His eyes turned cold from dark pupils, and The feeling of inorganic matter like beads, before everyone had time to react, turned into a person like an ice sculpture.

"How can this be contagious!" Xiao Yao shouted with a look of lovelessness, obviously stunned by the changes in front of him.

"Keep running!" Wu Xiajiu shouted, and gave Xiao Yao a hand. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the passenger who turned into an ice sculpture followed suit, but it was obvious that he had already switched to the other camp.

The passage in front of him has also changed. It is no longer a steep slope, but a step-by-step step. Above the long stairs is the exit.

After running violently, Professor Zhou has exhausted all his physical strength at this time. Up to now, it is all up to Fang Zi and others to pull him. However, the stairs are icy slippery. Finally, after taking a wrong step, his feet staggered and his body fell forward. , and slipped down a few steps.

"Professor Zhou!" When Fang Zi grabbed Professor Zhou's hand in time, Wu Xiajiu also hugged Professor Zhou's waist. At this time, one of the ice sculptures had already jumped on Professor Zhou's leg and began to climb up.

Wu Xiajiu hugged Professor Zhou with both hands, and kicked the ice sculpture on the face. Although he stopped his upward movement, he did not cause any damage. Taking advantage of this moment, he cooperated with Fang Zi to pull Professor Zhou up first, The ice sculpture didn't have Professor Zhou's leg in its hand, but instead rushed towards Wu Xiajiu.

A burst of force was hit on the stomach, Wu Xiajiu paused when he got up, covered his stomach, and supported the ice with one hand, and when the ice sculpture rushed up again, there was a piercing sound of ice cracking, and Shi Shangzuo appeared in front of him. From the back of the ice sculpture, he inserted the knife in his hand into the back of the ice sculpture. From where the knife penetrated, cracks began to spread gradually. Finally, the whole ice sculpture-like figure shattered to pieces in front of Wu Xiajiu's eyes.

Shi Shang helped Wu Xiajiu up with one hand, picked up the knife that fell on the ground with the other hand, swung it violently, the blade spun, and hit the ice sculpture behind. At this moment, the two of them ran up.

"Quick! Xiao Jiu, Brother Shi!" Lu Nan and the others waved at the entrance of the cave above. The steps from the entrance of the cave were a little short. He rushed to the entrance of the cave, but backed away as if frightened.

"Sure enough, they won't come out after chasing here." Tang Yunsi stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the ice sculpture that flinched inside.

Fang Zi and Professor Zhou were lying on the ground panting, and Wu Xiajiu was exhausted enough to rest on Shi Shangzuo's body. After a while, everyone was in the mood to observe this place. This place seemed to be the other side of the iceberg, and the surrounding environment was not good. The same, but there are still endless glaciers in the distance.

"It seems that this iceberg is floating on the surface of the sea." After a while, Wu Xiajiu said, since fish can be seen under the ice cave, it means that there is sea water under the iceberg, and...the sea water in the depths has obviously melted.

"Apart from the glacier, there is only this iceberg in this place. Where should I find the ticket? Do I still have to enter the ice cave?" Wu Xiajiu stood up and looked at the glacier not far away.

"It should be. Let's go around here and go to the place before. It's getting dark now, so we'd better find a place to rest." Shi Shangzuo said.

Everyone nodded, and after resting enough, they supported each other to stand up, and walked towards the place where there was an ice cave before. This time they walked to the place where the shore meets the sea, and looked into the distance. When they wake up, they are empty and silent. They are in this world, as small as dust.

Fang Zi suddenly sighed, "Oh, I suddenly feel extremely lonely."

Zhu Lanmeng said, "In this environment, it is inevitable to have such a feeling, let's work hard to overcome it." Then, he patted Fangzi on the shoulder.

Fang Zi nodded depressedly.

Although the iceberg is floating on the sea, it is also large in size, and I don’t know how to get to the side of the iceberg from inside, but it is obviously time-consuming to walk back from the outside after coming out. Fortunately, There are also ice caves here, and everyone chose an ice cave that seemed to have no problem as a place to rest at night.

There was no firewood to light the fire, but everyone was well-prepared. They brought alcohol lamps and canned dry food, and they had a hot meal. After eating, they began to find a shelter from the wind and rest against the ice wall.

The feeling of sleeping here is not good. Everyone didn't take out their sleeping bags because they didn't know what dangers would appear in the cave. It would be difficult to respond in time if they entered the sleeping bag. Therefore, they just put on their clothes and sat down to rest. They keep each other warm.

After a day of running around, Wu Xiajiu felt drowsy, leaning against the ice wall, but he was not comfortable at all. He always thought about what he saw in the ice wall before, and always wanted to look back to see if there was anything here. , Shi Shangzuo put his arm behind Wu Xiajiu, and without waiting for him to react, he hugged him in his arms and patted him comfortingly.

"Sleep, for a long time, have a good rest." Shi Shang Zuo said.

Wu Xiajiu felt the warmth of his ears wrapped in the hat, nodded and closed his eyes.

The ice cave gradually became quiet. Fang Zi, who was not feeling sleepy, looked at the teacher who was already asleep, then at the couple next to each other, touched his nose, and planned to squint next to Professor Zhou for a while. At this time, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something in the ice wall beside him.

It seemed to be a small white dot floating slowly. Fang Zi squinted his eyes and leaned over to watch. The white dot was floating in the ice wall, getting bigger and bigger. close look......

Fang Zi's eyes gradually widened, but his body seemed to be frozen in place, unable to move. What kind of white spots were those? It was clearly a person, a person whose whole body was wrapped up and whose face could not be seen clearly.

Looking at him, Fang Zi felt extremely cold all over his body, as if the cool air from the bottom of his heart emerged in waves. The figure looked cold and evil, and his whole body was full of disgusting feelings. The self reflected in the wall, and the figure that seems to be behind him.

But he knew that the teacher was behind him, and there was no gap between him and the teacher, so the figure couldn't stand behind him, so he would only be inside the ice wall.

Fang Zi saw that the figure floated behind him and stopped. At the same time, he also felt that his body was about to freeze. He watched the figure start to raise his arms, as if wrapped by something. Seeing the baggy sleeves hanging down, Zi Zi leaned close to his ear...

"Fang Zi." At this moment, Wu Xiajiu's voice sounded, and at the same time, one hand was pressed on Fang Zi's shoulder. The warm feeling seemed to be conveyed through the clothes, and Fang Zi almost burst into tears. I didn't think Xiao Jiujiu's voice was so pleasant. At the same time, the things in the ice wall disappeared.

Fang Zi finally felt that he was able to move, he slumped his shoulders in relief, and turned his head again, Wu Xiajiu and Shi Shangzuo were behind him, and Professor Zhou also woke up.

"It's all right." Wu Xiajiu looked at Fang Zi still in a daze, and patted him on the shoulder again.

"What's wrong with Xiao Fang?" Professor Zhou asked with some doubts, "It looks like he's about to cry."

Fang Zi: "I'm almost scared to death! Did you see it?" He pointed at the ice wall and said, when his fingertip touched the wall, he shivered again and took it back.

Wu Xiajiu nodded, "Yes, I have seen it before."

Professor Zhou was puzzled, "What did you see?"

At this time, Tang Yunsi and the others also woke up, Wu Xiajiu and Fang Zi talked about the matter, Professor Zhou looked into the ice wall in surprise, "I didn't see anything, but after Xiao Jiu and Shang Zuo came over, , I woke up too and saw them wake you up."

Tang Yunsi said, "That is to say, the three of them can see that thing, but you, Professor Zhou, cannot see it."

Professor Zhou nodded, "It should be so."

Wu Xiajiu frowned, "What the hell is that?"

Fang Zi's complexion was very bad at this time, against the background of the surrounding icy blue and transparent walls, there was a kind of paleness, he touched his ear and said, "I, why do I feel that the thing is wrapped...is human skin .”

Human skin? !

Wu Xiajiu suddenly thought of the dead white color on that thing, he thought it was wrapped in some white cloth, but that thing......

He thought of the sunken mouth he saw at that time, and those people who were frozen in the wall and had no skin on their bodies.

Looking at each other with Fang Zi, Fang Zi obviously thought of it too.

"Ouch! I want to vomit!" Fang Zi retched, the thing's arm had touched his ear just now, and now thinking about it, he felt sick to death.

Wu Xiajiu's face was also very ugly.

"Is this thing a human, a ghost, or a monster? Why did it suddenly disappear, or is it still inside the ice wall?" Lu Nan boldly knocked on the ice wall.

"It is said that it is inside the ice wall, and I can't see it from the outside, but after the thing came close, I felt it from the outside." Wu Xiajiu touched the back of his neck and said, the thing seemed to be behind him at that time , The sensation of the hairs on the neck standing on end.

Fang Zi nodded and said, "I feel the same way, yes, he still wants to touch me!" As he spoke, he shook his body and rubbed his arms together.

Wu Xiajiu looked thoughtful, and he said, "There is only such an iceberg in this place, surrounded by sea water, I wonder if there used to be a group of human beings living on it, when the cold current hits, even The sea water is frozen into glaciers, so people will definitely not be able to resist..."

Zhu Lanmeng pursed her lips and said, "So, are you saying that in order to resist the cold, they... took off some people's... and put them on themselves?"

Having said that, everyone's faces were very ugly, Professor Zhou said, "What about those ice sculptures underground?"

"Maybe they escaped to the ground, and then, for some reason, they became like that..." Lu Nan said, no matter what kind of conjecture it is, it is obviously not a good result.

"The ticket...could it be on those things?" At this moment, Wu Xiajiu looked at the ice wall and asked.

This place is either ice or snow, and there is sea water that will melt at an unknown time, and the train stops on the sea. If you don't find the ticket quickly, according to the past world, in the last few days, the sea water There must be a tendency to melt.

"It's very possible." Shi Shang left.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Wu Xiajiu's conjecture was indeed very possible. Thinking about it this way, everyone was a little silent. After a while, Professor Zhou yawned and said, "Let's rest first, whether it is or not, now We can’t even touch each other, let’s talk about it when we meet.”

Everyone nodded, then sat back and began to rest, calmed down in the second half of the night, until dawn, everyone did not encounter anything, but when they walked out of the ice cave again, the situation in front of them was not objective.

Cracks began to appear on the endless glacier, some were big and some were small, but one could tell at a glance that it was a sign that the seawater was about to melt.

Everyone didn't stop, and immediately moved towards the previous place.

Xiao Yao said, "If the sea water melts and we haven't found the ticket, do we have to swim to the train?" She touched her chin and thought for a while, "My swimming skills are not good, and we are wearing such thick clothes , once it reaches the sea, it must not sink.”

Zhu Lanmeng was not as optimistic as she was, "It would be good if I could swim to the train, but I'm afraid there is something in the sea... Even swimming to it would be troublesome."

Speaking of this, Lu Nan hissed, Tang Yunsi turned to look at him, "What's wrong?"

Lu Nan wrinkled his face and said, "I have a deep-sea phobia... It's okay to look at it this way. If the glacier melts, I'm afraid I really dare not go into the water."

Tang Yunsi raised his eyebrows, "Then can you swim?"

Lu Nan scratched his face and said, "Swimming is still good. I have taught it in school, but my legs will be weak when I go into the sea. This is my problem. Rivers, swimming pools and the like are okay, but when I see the sea, I can't do it." .”

Fang Zi leaned over and said, "Lu Nan, are you allergic to the word Hai haha, this is the first time I've seen you like this."

Tang Yunsi pushed Fang Zi's face away, and said to Lu Nan, "It's okay, if the sea really melts, I'll take you swimming."

Everyone was talking and moving their bodies. Compared with the cold when they got off the bus the first day, the temperature is indeed much better now. Everyone feels it obviously, mainly because their noses are no longer cold.

If it wasn't important to find the ticket, walking slowly like this, looking at the surrounding scenery, was like a very good trip, but the time was approaching, and everyone dared not relax, and finally came to the place where they got off before.

In the distance, the train stopped quietly on the sea surface, and there was a crack in the sea surface between the train and the iceberg, and there was still a slight sound, just as everyone was looking at the sea surface, they suddenly ran out in panic not far away Two people, a middle-aged woman and a young man in his teens.

After running out of the cave, the two fell to the ground, looking into the ice cave in horror.

The young man looked handsome, but at this time he moved in panic again, and took a few steps back on the ground. He seemed to have noticed something, and turned his head to look in the direction of Wu Xiajiu and others with suspicion in his eyes.

They looked at each other and walked towards the middle-aged woman and the boy. Seeing them approaching, the boy stood up vigilantly.

"Don't get me wrong, we have no malicious intentions, just want to ask you, what happened inside? You look very..." Xiao Yao said first, pointing to the ice cave they came out of.

The middle-aged woman had a knitted hat on her head, and when she ran out, the hat tilted down. At this moment, she stood up and helped the hat. The middle-aged woman looked very ordinary, her eyes were swollen, and she seemed to stay up all night. I have severe bags under my eyes.

Hearing Xiao Yao's words, the middle-aged woman looked at the boy and said, "We encountered something inside."

"What?" Xiao Yao asked.

Seeing that the ice cave the two of them escaped from was not the one they walked in before, and they didn't know what happened to them.

The boy said with an ugly face, "A group of skinned corpses."

Wu Xiajiu waited for the others to open their eyes when they heard the words, but they didn't expect them to encounter this. Wu Xiajiu said, "We have also encountered them, but those corpses were frozen in the wall and did not come out."

"Hey, what we met was also frozen in the wall, but...just..." The middle-aged woman hesitated when she said this.

"Just what?" Wu Xiajiu asked.

The young man's face looked even uglier. Hearing this, he glared at the middle-aged woman and said, "It's just that she didn't know what was going on, but she touched the ice wall with her hand, and the ice wall shattered, and the corpse inside They also came out, and all of us separated, some of them went to nowhere, and some..." Having said this, the young man gave the middle-aged woman a bitter look.

The middle-aged woman rubbed her hands together in embarrassment, "I, I didn't do it on purpose, I saw a figure in the ice wall, I was so curious, so I touched it, who knows..."

"What figure?" Zhu Lanmeng asked.

The middle-aged woman said, "A figure wrapped in a white cloth."

"Hey, then..." After the middle-aged woman finished speaking, Fang Zi's eyes widened and he was about to say something, but Wu Xiajiu pulled his clothes vigorously behind him, Fang Zi immediately changed his words, "That's What the hell is that?"

The middle-aged woman shook her head and said, "I don't know either."

The middle-aged woman and the boy did not go in again, but waited not far from the ice cave. Wu Xiajiu waited for someone to sit at the other side some distance away from them.

"Something's wrong. When I saw the figure, I couldn't move. It was because Shang Zuo leaned over and patted me to move, and the figure disappeared. The middle-aged woman even said that I touched it..." After reading With a glance over there, Wu Xia said for a long time.

Fang Zi scratched his head and said, "That's right, I am the same way, Xiao Jiujiu, fortunately you gave me a hand, otherwise I would have said it..."

Shi Shang said, "That middle-aged woman has a problem."
