"I don't think this is a good idea," Marin said.
After they searched the entire house and the two large storage rooms connected to the iceberg, they found that everything was exactly as Frosttail said. The owner of the house was nowhere to be seen and no written description was left. Yaleriga and Joel Farman discussed for a while and decided to go to the surrounding area of the ice sheet to check again in person. None of them planned to stay behind, but Jing Huang had already walked out without saying a word.
This result made Marin complain endlessly, but his opinion was obviously unimportant, so the last three people left the house, leaving Luo Binhan, Marin, Momolo, Zhou Ba and Poppa. At this time, Popa and Zhou Ba were already playing well, playing a clapping game that was incomprehensible to outsiders.
"This is definitely a stupid idea, okay?" Marin said sadly, "None of you have read a few horror stories? Think about our current situation. Oh, a planet with frozen living dead, A missing keeper, and a ghost wandering outside at midnight... Shouldn't this make them a little alarmed? The tragic source of all such stories - I must emphasize that they are all - is to split up! We should run away immediately!"
He could not finish his speech of indignation. A gray bug that looked a bit like a cockroach crawled onto his collar from the edge of the table, and he immediately jumped up and flapped it.
Luo Binhan yawned and took off the insect: "Are you still afraid of insects? Shouldn't you get used to it by now?"
"No, no, dead insects and live insects are different." Marin said, "I eat all cooked food and never touch live insects that I don't know. Fresh and live food is a hobby that only perverts have! How can you Do you know if it is poisonous or not?”
This sentence reminded Luo Binhan. He immediately threw the gray worm to the ground, crushed it with his feet and threw it out of the house, and then went to wash his hands. Frosttail happened to come over to get the hot water, turned to him and said: "You don't have to worry about the insect being poisonous. It was hatched from the bottle of edible insect egg paste. I guess it was made by Polavati, so it won't cause any harm." Poison himself.”
Luo Binhan felt a little relieved and asked casually: "What kind of insect is this?"
"I don't know either." Shuangwei said, holding the cup, "I don't eat bugs, but I know more about herbs."
Luo Binhan turned to look at him. This man looks young, handsome, and muscular. He really doesn't look like a vegetarian.
"Why were you in the player preparation room that day?" he asked curiously.
The frost-tailed monster looked at him funny: "Because I am a player, otherwise what?"
He shrugged, put the cup aside, and then took off his coat and pants under Luo Binhan's glare. During this period, Luo Binhan almost called Momoluo to come over and fight the gangster, but fortunately the other party was still wearing a piece of crotch cloth.
The male body full of tough lines began to swell and deform. Thin white hair grew like wild grass, covering his skin in an instant. When everything ended, what stood in front of Luo Binhan turned into a huge silver wolf.
It stared at Luo Binhan with its terrifying silver-white beast eyes, and grinned. That may be an expression of kindness, but the effect is completely contrary to the original intention.
Marin, who came after hearing the noise, also saw Silver Wolf. He was startled, but quickly calmed down, as if he had already guessed Shuangwei's true face.
"Are you a human wolf or a werewolf?" Marin asked.
Silver Wolf seems unable to form human words, so he transforms into a bodybuilding competition boy again. He replied while putting on his pants: "I am a werewolf, a natural shapeshifter. But you don't need to be nervous, I am a vegetarian."
He put his clothes back on, held his glass of water and walked away. After he left, Ma Lin took Luo Binhan's arm and said, "We'd better not believe him too much. Who can guarantee that he is telling the truth?"
Luo Binhan didn't completely trust Shuangwei, but he still didn't feel nervous, because he neither believed that there was some kind of ghost on this planet that could be more powerful than Jing Huang, nor did he believe that a magical silver wolf could resist the original body of Momolo trample attack. This desolate place was simply prepared for the latter.
They walked back to the front room. At this time, Popa had found the data device of the treasure keeper, passed the identity authentication, and then searched for information about the White Tower apprentice's work clothes. Momolo walked into the storage room at the back and helped it search for some documents and logs that might be useful.
Luo Binhan and Ma Lin had nothing to do but sit at the table, drinking water and chatting with Shuangwei who had given up the search.
The table is made of a light yellow, almost white wood, and smells somewhat deep and fragrant. Luo Binhan touched the tabletop, and then noticed that the entire room was made of brick and wood, which was incompatible with the environment of the entire planet.
Just outside the glass window, the atmospheric environment is below minus 50 degrees all year round. The water on the surface of the planet is frozen and does not melt, covering the entire continent. There are large amounts of liquid hydrocarbons underground and in the ice abyss, causing the entire planet to emit vapors from within. Terrifying extreme cold. The nearest star is a faint white dwarf, making the planet's short days almost as dim as its nights. Lead clouds cover the sky, and the cold wind bites the bones. It is indeed a country of the dead haunted by ghosts.
"Can you figure it out?" Marin said, looking at the icebergs in the distance with him. "Some people think that the current world is not good, and would rather lie down here and wait for a better world. Is there anything better than this in the world?" What’s worse here?”
Luo Binhan found it difficult to answer. He is a man who grew up amid parental strife and family turmoil, and is generally reluctant to judge other people's values. Besides, to be honest, he didn't think it was as bad as Marin said. This ice ball is quiet, peaceful, and rarely visited. If there are enough resources and equipment to build a comfortable cabin here, and maybe some network signal, then Luo Binhan thinks it would be good to stay here. He can build a greenhouse and grow some normal vegetables and fruits.
Mi Gula's shadow immediately flashed in his mind, so he hurriedly escaped from his thoughts and poured hot water on himself. Frosttail, who was sitting next to him, listened to Marin's words. After pondering for a while, he said: "In the past, I knew an old man who lived in the forest. When I was young, he gave me a lot of inspiration and taught me how to Resist the urge for blood and hunting. In my heart, there is no one closer to wisdom than him, but he lives in some inexplicable fear all day long, and finally chooses to sleep here. I don’t know how long he set the wake-up time , but every few decades I’ll wander here and wonder why he did what he did… maybe they sensed something we didn’t?”
"Or maybe they just forced themselves into an illusion." Marin continued, "Of course, of course, they are smart people, but you have to admit that smart people can also be blind. If they choose to commit suicide, then I am really frustrated with the world, and I have nothing to say. But what does it mean to freeze yourself? Isn’t it a kind of inertia to abandon the present and go straight to the future? Besides, I don’t think the future will be better. I would rather live in the present. "
Shuangwei tilted his head with interest: "Don't you think the future will be better?"
"Why do I have to think so?" Marin said, "We always feel that the past is a mess, and people in the future will obviously look at us the same way. Do you think there will be any good things in waking up in that kind of world? Maybe they will only have ambitions. Satisfied, they laugh at us as primitive monkeys - or gray wolves, you know what I mean - and then we probably don't like them either. You will understand this when you meet those old people who talk about the declining world. Look again Looking at our lives, we know nothing in childhood and are still relaxed and happy, but as adults we have to run around and be busy. What about in our old age? I can’t bear to talk about it anymore. No, I don’t miss the past, but I don’t want to think about the future either. There are mountains of fire and swords at both ends. As for now? Although there is nothing to be happy about now, at least I am used to it. I would rather die in this world than go to the future to know what the ultimate truth is. Anyway, that will never be a good thing for me. good news."
Frosttail listened to what he said attentively, and then laughed a little confused.
"You are such a weird and negative person," he commented, "but you are quite interesting and a good companion to pass the time."
Luo Binhan also began to think about freezing himself. It was difficult for him to judge whether the world was bad, but if he froze himself, it would mean that he would never see his parents and Zhou Yu again. As for Jing Huang, he is probably still there, and Mi Gula... Can we escape this long wait by being lazy? Maybe someday in the future?
The sound of a bell outside the door interrupted his thoughts. So he stood up and opened the door, and found Jing Huang standing outside with his hair covered with ice chips and a depressed expression.
"...How did you do it?"
"I accidentally hit an iceberg." Jing Huang brushed his hair and said, "I didn't see anything around. Let's come back and take a look at the situation here."
Luo Binhan silently flicked an ice chip off his head. At this time Popa in the corner of the room cheered.
"Poppa found it." It raised its hands happily and said, "The magic bone kinetic energy suit is stored in the 104th warehouse of Lake No. 6."
