After a long period of thinking, he finally took some kind of action. Just when Zhao Ping was still as silent as an old monk in trance, He Fei suddenly stood up and walked straight to the tent door.
"Everyone, come out with me to inspect the camp."
No one knew why He Fei took everyone out for a stroll and then shuttled back and forth in the camp, but these things had nothing to do with Dakaroff, nor did they have anything to do with the two students sitting in the car.
Accompanied by the roar of a locomotive, a bus was slowly moving forward, currently driving in the snow-covered mountains. The driver was a slightly burly white man, and there were two male students sitting in the back seat. A former truck driver, even though Dakalov has now switched careers and become a school janitor, he still retains his driving experience and can at least control a bus.
Because a large number of students were missing this morning, the entire camp was panicked. Sure enough, Director Gorsky, the deputy team leader, quickly issued the correct order and arranged for Dakalov, who had been a driver, to take the two students out of the snow-capped mountains. , went to a place with smooth signal to call the police and contacted the outside world for rescue as soon as possible. So Dakalov drove a camp bus and left the snow mountain as ordered.
Of course, considering that the road conditions in the mountains were extremely bad, Dakalov was very careful. He was tense and concentrated while driving. Although he concentrated on driving, the two students who did not need to drive were not relaxed.
"To be honest, I still don't understand how Ors and the others disappeared. They obviously climbed up the mountain, but why didn't they come down? Everyone had been waiting all morning?"
Staring at the short and fat boy in front of him, the other blond boy kept wondering. There was no doubt that they were still discussing the missing persons in the morning. As one of the students who had participated in the mountaineering trip at that time, the blond boy had a good say. , not only that, but one of the missing people also had a good relationship with him. His friend named Ors was one of the first members to climb the mountain. At first, the blond boy was envious of him, but he suddenly After climbing up the mountain, the other party completely disappeared. Now that we talk about it again, the blond boy is no longer envious, but feels happy instead.
"It was so dangerous. Fortunately, I was assigned to the second batch at that time, otherwise I would have been missing!"
After saying that, the blond boy began to rejoice. He touched his chest to show his fear, and the short and fat boy who stayed in the camp at the beginning also nodded in agreement, thinking that the other party was lucky. Although he nodded, he didn't know what he thought of during the period. Or young people have active minds and like to have wild imaginations. As soon as they turned their heads, the short and fat boy looked mysterious and analyzed in a very uncertain tone: "But this thing is really weird. 50 people... It disappeared like this. This is an uninhabited mountainous area with low temperatures all year round. The possibility of gangsters is almost zero. If you are joking, those who go up the mountain cannot stay at the top of the mountain for so long anyway. After all, the temperature at the top of the mountain is higher than that at the bottom. It’s still cold and we can’t stay there for too long. If that’s the case, then…”
There was a slight pause at this point, and then the short boy with a mysterious expression suddenly narrowed his eyes, and then made an outrageous guess that no one had ever thought of: "Then do you think it might be a ghost?"
……………
"ghost?"
Hearing the pudgy boy talk about ghosts, the blond boy opposite was slightly startled, and fell into a brief trance as if he was shocked by this speculation. Many people know about ghosts, but after all, they are just legends. Now in the 21st century, do people still believe in that kind of stuff?
There is no accurate answer yet as to whether anyone believed it, but the surprise came very suddenly. Just when the blond boy was stunned for a moment and the pudgy boy was about to continue saying something, the two of them felt the car sway, and then the bus stopped. down.
"Hey, Brother Dakarov, what's wrong with the car?"
"Damn, the wheels are stuck!"
Because the road conditions were so bad, the rear wheels of the bus got stuck in a hole, and it tilted when passing through a snow-covered section of road. Although the bus body did not overturn, one wheel did get stuck in it.
"What should I do?" After learning that the wheel was stuck, they stopped chatting and discussing. The two students hurriedly asked, while Dakarov continued to try a few more times. After confirming that it was fruitless, the man turned around helplessly and said to the two of them: "According to the inclination of the car body, the wheels should not be sunken deeply. You two get out of the car and have a look. If this is the case, you two can push directly from behind."
"good!"
The two people who were originally here to help the driver nodded in agreement after listening to Dakalov's instructions. Soon, as the door opened and stepped off the bus, the two people came to the back of the bus and checked, only to find Dakalov. You guessed it, the rear wheel on the right side of the bus did sink into a small hole. Due to the snow cover, the hole was not discovered, so it accidentally fell into it when passing by. Of course, even if the hole was not It was deep, but the snow composed of water still caused the wheels to slip, and the culprit why the car body couldn't break free was found.
"I saw it! It's indeed a pit. We're pushing from behind right now. You increase the accelerator and see if you can drive out!"
"Okay, let me try!"
As mentioned above, after finding the source of the problem, the two people hurriedly ran to the front of the car and told Dakarov, who was acting as the driver, what they found. Then they returned to the back of the car and planned to push the car as originally discussed. However, just as they were about to When I got to the back of the car and was about to push the cart, there was a gust of mountain wind.
Although there are constant winds in the snow-capped mountains, this mountain wind is obviously more intense and terrifying, and the low temperature it brings is far beyond what ordinary mountain winds can compare with. As expected, as the low-temperature cold wind blows over the body, it is located at the rear of the car. The two of them shivered collectively, and the chill that could almost penetrate their cotton-padded clothes was indescribable.
"Ah, where did the cool breeze come from? It froze me to death! Hey, Carl, are you cold?" The low-temperature cold wind passing through his body made the blond boy who was about to lift the trolley grin his teeth, and he didn't care about pushing the trolley for a moment. He hurriedly curled up his neck and rubbed his hands to keep warm, and asked the short and fat boy next to him if he was cold. The short and fat boy named Karl also shivered and nodded without any suspense: "You, aren't you talking nonsense? It must be cold, it's still cold. It’s really weird, where is the wind coming from? It’s so cold! I said Dennis, are we wearing too little? If I had known this, I should have put on an extra down jacket when I came!”
"You have the nerve to say you're cold? Let's take a look at your fat body first. You're so fat and you're frozen like this, so don't I have to wear two clothes?"
Seeing that Carl was so frozen that he couldn't even speak coherently, the blond boy named Dennis suddenly showed a disdainful expression. Although he was also frozen, he was still amused by Carl's performance, and then made a joke casually, but... …
"Are you envious that I am stronger than you? Hehe, to tell you the truth, even if I am very afraid of the cold, I am still more tolerant of the cold than you. If you don't believe it... huh?"
Facing the ridicule, just when Karl had to fight back for the sake of dignity, he suddenly stopped and stopped mid-sentence. Then he looked down at the ground as if he had discovered something. At the same time, he saw Karl suddenly lowered his head and stared. As he stood on his feet, Dennis, who was attracted, also looked at the ground. He lowered his head and looked intently. He saw that the ground had already appeared a protrusion at some point. Under the snow-covered surface, a semi-circular hillock was now protruding. .
The hillock appeared at the back of the car and was just witnessed by the two people standing at the back of the car. To be honest, if it was just a raised hillock, it would be nothing in the snow-covered mountains. It may not attract anyone's attention. After all, it's all covered with snow. Which of the surrounding stone mounds covered with snow is not a hill? That's true, but the hillock at the rear of the car is different. Although the body is covered with snow, the hillock is actually alive! In other words, the hills on the surface are protruding and climbing up little by little!
"Huh? What is this? Is there something trying to get out?"
Seeing that the hillock was rising slowly and gradually getting higher, except for Karl who was dumbfounded, Dennis asked as he watched, subconsciously asking the other person what it was. Unfortunately, Karl didn't know, so he didn't answer, but still stared at the feet slowly with curious eyes. Seeing the other party's silence on the rising snow hill, Daniel could only find a reasonable answer for himself: "Could it be a hibernating snake?"
Thinking that some animals do have the habit of hibernating, after seeing the scene of protruding snow with his own eyes, Daniel guessed that there might be some kind of underground hibernating snake-like creature emerging from the surface. However, as the snow hills rose higher and higher, Gao, gradually, Daniel discovered the abnormality...
As the snow hills continued to rise, he realized that he was wrong. There were no snow hills in front of him at all, and the protrusions of snow on the surface were not lifted off the ground by something at all, but the snow itself! A ball of snow actually rose on its own without any external force. It broke free from the surface in an extremely weird way, ignoring gravity, and then continued to rise at a speed visible to the naked eye. During this period, it actually exceeded the height of a person. Finally, the snow was climbing. It stopped rising when it reached a height of 3 meters. Then, as if it were alive, under the gaze of the two people who had already been stunned, the 3-meter snow began to deform, condensed and squirmed again in a way visible to the naked eye, and slowly grew. The hands, feet, and limbs then become more and more humanoid!
Because the scene was too shocking, and the picture was seriously beyond the scope of human understanding, at this moment, both Karl and Dennis were stunned. They were stunned by the abnormal picture close at hand. Their eyes widened. Their mouths were wide open and their brains were blank for a long time. They just stared at the changes in the snow. They were so dazed that they ignored everything and could not hear any sound at all, even if the driver had shouted many times.
"Hey! Carl, Dennis, what are you two doing? You two are asked to push the cart, why do you two stand still!?"
The bus had already been re-ignited under the control of Dakarov. Accompanied by the roar of the locomotive, the man was stepping on the accelerator to try to escape. However, when he looked in the rearview mirror, he found that the two people who were supposed to be pushing the bus behind him were actually Standing motionless at the back of the car, Dakalov felt uncomfortable when he saw this. He thought the two of them were working hard to push the car, but unexpectedly they couldn't move. No one was pushing the car, so how could he drive the car out of the pit? Hole?
Hey, young people today, don’t they even joke around?
Seeing this, and feeling full of dissatisfaction, Dakalov hurriedly shouted, staring at the rearview mirror while shouting at the two of them, urging them to push the cart quickly, but...
After shouting and shouting, Dakalov stopped shouting. His voice gradually lowered, and finally fell into silence completely. The reason why he finally shut up was also very simple, that is, through the rearview mirror, he saw Snow, a snowdrift unexpectedly appeared at the rear of the bus, rising slowly in front of Karl and the two people who were in a daze. At first, Dakalov did not see it due to the limited range of the rearview mirror, but as time went by, The snow was rising higher and higher. When the height reached the reflection area of the rearview mirror, the man finally discovered the snow, and by the way, he found the reason why Carl and the two were in a daze. However, this is not the point. The point is...
what is that? Why does a ball of snow on the ground rise on its own, and why does it rise higher than a person! ?
Dakalov definitely didn’t know the answer, so he reacted exactly the same as Karl. With the help of the rearview mirror, he just stared at the rising snow, and then witnessed the snow deforming and starting to condense and squirm. Transform appearance.
As can be imagined, even Dakarov who was in the car was completely stunned, and Karl and the two who were close at hand were completely stunned on the spot. From the back of the car, they stared at the pure white snow that was changing its shape in front of them. Karl was in a daze the whole time, and Daniel was in a daze the whole time, just staring at the snow changing shape. Finally, after a period of body changes, the snow turned into a person, a 3-meter-tall strange man with a white body and a head covered with dense hair. wack!
At this moment, as the evolution ended, the white weirdo immediately spotted Carl and the two, and saw the two college students who were still in a daze until now. Then, under the joint gaze of Carl and Dennis, the white man whose face was covered by hair The monster made a move. It slowly stretched out its pale right hand, then put its hand on Dennis's face, gently touching the boy's face in a way similar to caressing, but...
It was this seemingly gentle touch, or when the white weirdo's fingers just touched Daniel's face, something happened suddenly:
Daniel began to freeze, and frost instantly appeared on the right side of his face that was touched by his fingers. The frost spread at an alarming speed, rapidly spreading towards the lower part of the young man's neck. Three seconds later, Daniel's whole body was covered with a layer of white frost. , yes, under the cover of frost, he who had been frozen due to trance was completely frozen this time, from the initial absent-minded solidification to physical solidification. This is not over yet, and something even more terrifying is to come.
Alala, alala...
When Daniel's whole body was completely frozen, the next moment, cracks appeared on his body. A large number of cracks that were almost the same as glass cracks began to appear on the young man's frozen body. Along with bursts of rattling sounds, cracks on the body surface More and more, and finally...
Wow!
Listening to a harsh and crisp sound, Dennis shattered. His body instantly shattered and turned into a pile of ice shards on the spot!
This scene was caught by Karl, who was standing next to him. His eyeballs popped out, and the pupils inside suddenly shrank to a small point. Then, he saw the white weirdo continue to move, slowly extending his right hand representing death towards Own.
then……
"Ah! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
Karl reacted and finally broke free from the initial shock and sluggishness. As soon as he came back to his senses, Karl's face changed drastically and he screamed. After suddenly letting out a series of screams that were almost changed in pitch, he turned around and ran away, like a frightened animal. He crawled like a courageous wild dog and ran desperately in the direction away from the white monster. No, that was not a monster, but a devil, a devil from hell that was ten thousand times more terrifying than a ghost! The devil was killing people, and with just a slight touch, Daniel suddenly turned into a pile of ice shards! He even died without leaving a body behind!
"Ah!" In order to prevent himself from being frozen into ice slag out of thin air, at this moment, Karl, who realized that the devil was coming, began to run away. He screamed and ran wildly, and began to run away desperately in the rugged snow-covered mountains, just to stay away. That white devil, stimulated by fear, was so fat that he could walk like flying in the difficult-to-move snow!
First of all, it is certain that Karl's target speed is extremely fast. Even if he cannot reach the level of a track and field athlete, he has actually reached his fastest personal running speed. With this speed instinctively inspired by the desire to survive, he successfully avoided The devil touched, the white devil escaped successfully, and the white devil failed to touch...
Seeing the second prey howling and running away, it made no pursuit, made no movement, and even showed no signs of chasing. It just stood there and stared at the other prey, watching the young man run further and further away. However, when Carl ran nearly two hundred Just when Yu Miqie was about to disappear at the end of the snowfield, the white devil disappeared. Of course, it was said to have disappeared, but in fact it changed its shape. It had been silent for a long time and instantly turned into a white circle made of snowflakes. The ball first floated in mid-air, then suddenly moved, speeding back and forth without warning, flying straight towards Karl who was running further and further away. Because the speed was too fast, it was as fast as a car. Five seconds later …
Hooray!
With a roar that broke through the sky, the snow ball easily caught up with Karl, and then passed through the young man's body in an instant before Karl could react. Next, the familiar scene played out again. As soon as the snow ball passed over his body, Karl's body Ice formed and was covered with frost in the blink of an eye. What was even more shocking was that because Karl was running the whole distance, driven by inertia, his body was obviously frozen, but the young man still kept running fast from beginning to end, and then his body was running at a speed visible to the naked eye. It shattered, disintegrated in the air, and unexpectedly turned into a pile of ice debris while running!
At the same time, as if he had lost interest in the prey that had turned into ice slag, at the same second that Karl turned into ice slag, the life-threatening snow mass that had just flown ahead also turned around in an instant, and then flew in the air in the direction from which it came. , rushed straight to the roadside bus, and rushed to Dakarov who was staying in the car! ! !
As for Dakalov...
With the help of the car's rearview mirror, he witnessed the entire process. He saw with his own eyes that the student named Daniel was turned into ice slag by a white humanoid made of snow, and then witnessed the white humanoid transformed into a snowball, and then turned the student who ran away in panic. Karl turned into ice slag in the blink of an eye, and now he also saw the snow ball returning on the same path, rushing towards the bus and rushing towards himself sitting in the car!
That's the devil, most likely a life-seeking devil from hell!
"Ah, ah, ahhhhh!"
Seeing the life-threatening snowballs roaring and approaching the bus, Dakalov, who was still watching blankly in the car, was frightened to death on the spot! He was so frightened that all the hair on his body stood on end, and his urine immediately flowed violently along his pants. But then again, although he was screaming with fear and gallbladder at the moment, he was in a worse condition than the two students who had just died. Better, he didn't stay outside the car to face the white devil, but sat in the car the whole time. In addition, Carl's escape just now forced the devil to chase him for a certain distance, so for now, he has hope of escaping, not bad. Just because he knew that he still had a chance to survive and saw the snowball rushing towards him, Dakalov hurriedly stepped on the accelerator, trying to get the car into a pit before the snowball arrived.
"Ah! Quick, move quickly! Move quickly!"
Bang, bang, bang!
In order to avoid turning into ice slag like the two students who had just died tragically, Dakalov went crazy at this moment. He stepped on the accelerator and pushed the car desperately. Even though the wheels kept slipping, he still forced it to start. Finally... …
A miracle happened. I don’t know whether it was good luck or the man’s hard work. In a blink of an eye, at the critical moment when the approaching snowball was tens of meters away from touching the bus and rushing into the carriage, the bus successfully broke away from the wheel. When he got into the pothole and saw the car rushing out of the pothole, Dakalov was so excited that his eyes burst out and he kept the tears flowing. The next moment, Dakalov did not dare to neglect and did not care about driving safely, so he directly stepped on the accelerator. in the end!
"Ah ah!"
Boom!
Accompanied by the man's roar, the bus roared as the accelerator was pressed to the bottom. First, it spewed out a cloud of black exhaust gas, and then rushed forward like a wild horse. Then it managed to break free from the pit before the snow clump approached and resumed driving. He fled the scene as fast as the bus could reach, and as expected, the snowball transformed by the devil chose to chase the bus as it was speeding, following directly behind the bus!
As mentioned before, this strange snow ball transformed by the devil is extremely fast, and its actual speed is comparable to that of a car. Therefore, even if the bus has resumed operation under Dakarov's control, it is basically impossible to get rid of the snow ball. In addition, it is basically impossible to get rid of the snow ball. Another point that must be mentioned is that due to the high overall weight of the bus, it cannot reach the fastest speed in a short time like a small car, so some problems are naturally unavoidable, just like now, when he is driving a car at high speed, At that moment, before he could reach the maximum speed of the bus, Xue Tuan used his speed to catch up with the bus and instantly touched the rear of the bus.
Then……
Under the gaze of Dakalov's eyes that almost protruded from his eye sockets, the rear part of the car that was touched by the snow began to freeze, and then collapsed and shattered in the blink of an eye! ! !
