Time passed little by little, and outsiders could not feel the passage of the ice field because there was no sun and moon.
But the native ghost soldiers can clearly distinguish the passage of time.
"Chief, after waiting for more than a day, these people haven't come back yet. Could it be that they fell into the sea?"
A ghost soldier taunted anxiously.
There are many big fish lurking under the ice sheet. These big fish are not easy to mess with. If you hook them while fishing, you will be pulled into the ice cave by the fish and fall into the water.
Once you fall into an ice cave, climbing out is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
"It's possible that these lackeys don't understand the horrors of the ice field, and they may have become fish food."
The leader sneered, but she felt that things might not be that simple.
"However, I feel like they might have...ran away."
The leader looked inside the igloo and saw that all the important things had been taken away, especially weapons.
Only the irrelevant ones remain.
The frozen fish outside the house seemed to be deliberately left to deceive.
"Run away? Where did they go? Back to the grassland? How dare they betray the Holy Son?"
The ghost soldiers found it incredible and felt that the guards were not so courageous.
The leader shook his head slightly and said, "It's hard to say. What if he really ran away and we didn't find out..."
Thinking of this, the leader felt that things might get serious.
In the past, they had monitored the guards, and the fishing time would not last more than a day, because the guards did not know the terrain of the ice field and would get lost if they walked too far.
The ice sheet is no different from other places. There are no sun, moon and stars to guide us, and there are no mountains or rivers to mark us.
Getting lost on the ice means you may never be found again.
Therefore, the guards and the others were usually fishing nearby, and it was strange that they could not come back for such a long time like today.
"Go and report to General Maya immediately!"
The leader ordered a ghost soldier, and the ghost soldier immediately ran towards the Moon Palace.
Thinking that the guard might have escaped, the leader felt inexplicably excited.
If the guards run away, they are traitors, and traitors can be killed...or eaten.
They have never eaten human flesh and want to know what it tastes like. I heard it is delicious...
Soon, Maya arrived at the igloo with a few elite soldiers.
"General."
Everyone paid their respects immediately.
Maya looked at the empty igloo and sneered: "Wow, they actually escaped, these traitors!"
The leader was worried about Maya's accusation and immediately said: "General, these people may not have run away, they may have gone fishing and got lost..."
The leader said this to excuse himself and prevent Maya from placing the blame on her.
It is the leader's duty to monitor the guards. Now that someone has escaped, this slap will definitely hit the leader's butt.
Maya said coldly: "No! They just defected, they are traitors!"
Maya had no intention of blaming anyone. She wanted to kill the guards and needed an excuse.
The crime of defecting is enough to kill the guard, so no matter whether the guard went fishing or got lost, in Maya's view, it is the same, that is, he defected.
This is why there is no excuse for wanting to inflict crimes!
The leader was not stupid, and immediately understood what Maya meant, and echoed: "Yes, they just defected, and their subordinates are willing to hunt them down."
Maya waved her hand and sneered: "No need, I will hunt him down myself!"
Maya also has selfish motives. She wants to eat the leader and taste human flesh.
"My subordinates are willing to follow."
The leader volunteered himself again, and he also wanted to taste human flesh.
Maya said coldly: "No, I've taken them enough."
After saying that, Maya took only five elite ghost soldiers and immediately ran towards the Hera Pass.
Watching Maya go away, the leader sighed regretfully, he couldn't get a share of the pie.
The six Moyas are very fast. They were born and raised in the ice field and are very familiar with the environment here. They know how to properly use the wind to help them run, and at the same time pour their true energy into their skate shoes.
They hunched their bodies and disappeared in a flash, rushing towards the Hera Pass.
After chasing for a day, the ghost soldiers behind him were a little tired. Maya was also surprised, but she didn't expect that she hadn't caught up yet.
Judging from the signs of activity in the house, the guards had not been gone for long. According to her estimation, they should have caught up soon.
The only thing the guards can use is sled dogs, and the speed of those things is very average.
But I didn’t expect that after chasing for so long, I still haven’t seen him.
Maya was a little angry. She was worried that the guard would really run out of the Hera Pass, and her feet were a little faster.
After chasing for another day, the ghost soldiers behind shouted: "General, we can't hold on anymore, we are too tired."
Horse riding is different from skating. Riders can be lazy, while skating means running on their own.
Maya reprimanded displeasedly: "Then stay! Don't follow me!"
After saying that, Moya accelerated suddenly and slid faster. The ghost soldiers had no choice but to grit their teeth and keep up.
After chasing for another day, we were almost near the Hera Pass.
Maya finally saw something in front of her, it looked like a sail, with someone sitting underneath it, and it was quickly drifting towards the Hera Pass.
"Okay, how come you can run so fast? You can actually use a sail."
In the snowfield, there are also such windsleighs, but you must be very skilled in controlling the wind, otherwise it will easily overturn.
Moreover, the wind inside the ice sheet is not as strong as in the south and the speed is slower.
"Follow up quickly!"
Moya was overjoyed. The ghost soldiers behind him had reached their limit and had no strength to speed up at all.
Maya also had more ambition than strength. She wanted to skate faster, but she couldn't use any extra strength.
"Quick, quick!"
Maya kept urging her body to work harder, but her legs only had so much strength, and it was impossible to exert any more force.
ahead.
The commander discovered Maya who was chasing him.
"They're still here..."
The moment he saw Maya, the commander felt relieved.
He has been waiting for the pursuers. He knew that the pursuers would definitely come, but he didn't know who would come.
Now I know that it is Maya who is here, not a ghost fetus.
If Guifei came in person, as the Holy Son, he would definitely lead a group of people to chase him down.
In this situation, the commander cannot escape.
But now, it was only Maya who was chasing him, and there were only six people, so the hope of escaping was greatly increased.
"Boss, they are coming."
Seeing Maya's pursuers, the guards trembled with fear.
The commander scolded: "Don't be afraid, there are only six of them, and the leader is Maya. The Holy Son has not come, so we have hope."
"Everyone, speed up. I think they are tired and can't catch up with us."
The closer they got to the Hera Pass, the stronger the wind and the faster they went.
The guards carefully control the sail, which is where their lives depend.
The cold wind was blowing, and the commander held on to the sled tightly, staring closely at Maya behind him.
The sled was blown into the Hera Pass like a flying boat. Maya watched helplessly from behind as the guards and the group entered the Hera Pass.
"General, stay behind. The Queen has ordered not to step out of the canyon."
The ghost soldiers behind him saw that Maya was still chasing him and immediately shouted to stop him.
The ghost girl once ordered that the ghost tribe was not allowed to cross the Hera Pass and enter the Central Plains. She also sent the elder Demon Heart to guard the place, not only to prevent the human tribe from invading, but also to prevent the ghost tribe from leaving.
Maya watched the guards enter, and she felt unwilling to do so. She shouted, "Even if I ask questions, I will kill these traitors."
Ignoring the dissuasion, Maya rushed into the Hera Pass, and the strong cold wind made her run quickly towards the sled.
After the commander entered the Hera Pass, he thought he was safe, but he didn't expect Maya to chase him in.
"She's crazy!"
The commander knew that the ghosts could not cross the Hera Pass. This was what the ghosts said themselves, and it was absolutely correct.
In order to catch them, Maya dared to violate the ghost clan's ban.
"Boss, I'm chasing you."
the guard shouted.
The commander shouted: "Don't worry, let's go!"
A strong wind blew up in the valley, and snow particles suddenly filled the entire valley like mist. The sails were blown out of control, the sled was overturned, and everyone and the dog were swept up by the strong wind and slammed to the south of the canyon.
