The tent was about to be broken by the giant outside. Could it be that this is what the guide Chuyi called "Snow Maitreya"? I saw Han Shuna in the ice abyss at night. Although she could not see clearly, her body shape did not change. The ice cave was temporarily collapsed and closed. It took less than two hours. Even if she crawled out of another place, how could she become so big?

The guide seemed to have mentioned that the body of the deceased would become bigger and bigger when he was entangled by "Snow Maitreya", but before he could ask in detail, something suddenly appeared outside the tent and let it hold on. The tent would have to be overturned. The tent was lost in the Dragon Ding Glacier, which was mixed with wind and snow, and the consequences were unimaginable.

In order to avoid shooting the tent, I picked up a hiking pole placed on the ground and poked it to the outline of the human face exposed in the canvas. Unexpectedly, the big face seemed to be tangible and invisible, and only the concave canvas was poked back by the head of the canvas.

The entrance of the tent happened to be blocked. Uncle Ming was panicked and planned to climb out and run away. I quickly grabbed his leg and pressed him to the ground. What was the snow maitre outside? No one knew about it except Chu Yi's little news. Fortunately, the tent could stop it temporarily and run out rashly. Wasn't that hitting the tip of the knife?

The fat man imitated me just now, picked up a vertical flag for positioning the glacier, and poked it twice at the face. Seeing that it was useless, he grabbed Remington casually, and didn't care what to do after the tent broke. He pressed on that face and fired a close shot. The thing outside the tent was hit by a shotgun, and his momentum was slightly reduced.

The canvas on the top of the tent was shot into a sieve just now, and a lot of white things were exposed from it, but I couldn't see what it was. I just felt that it was similar to the snow outside, as if the guy outside the tent was a huge snowman.

The fat man kept firing, and Peter Huang, Chu Yi and others also opened their guns to shoot, but they did not have any effect. Suddenly, the support pole in the tent broke, and the entire tent fell down immediately, and the seven people were all covered underneath.

I thought to myself that this time it was over, the tent was broken, and the people inside pressed their arms and thighs. Not to mention wanting to run out, it was very difficult to stand up even if they struggled. Although I thought so in my heart, my body did not stop. I tried my best to push away the person pressing on me and quickly got out from under the tent.

Before he stood up, he had already pulled out the M1911, but the cold wind was howling outside, snowflakes were dancing, and nothing was there. At this time, Shirley Yang, Fatty and others also crawled out from under the tent, raised their guns and looked around, but there was no sign of the enemy.

The guide was familiar with the environment of the snow field glacier in the first year of junior high school, aimed at one direction, and shot. We also aimed at his gun. Maybe night had passed, and the Longding Glacier was no longer pitch black. The dark clouds like ink in the sky and the outlines of the surrounding snow peaks became vaguely visible. A huge white figure was seen running towards the white distance in the wind and snow.

That is Xue Maitreya, who attacked the tent just now. If it weren't for Chu Yi's eyes, it would be difficult to find its trace in the snow. Fatty, Chu Yi and the three of us, shot and chased after the snow. Shirley Yang was so anxious that he kept shouting behind: "Stop chasing, be careful of the ice cracks under the snow..." But her voice was soon flooded by the wind and snow behind her.

After a night, the snow on the glacier had lost its calf and ran less than ten meters away. The huge white figure suddenly sank down and disappeared on the snow field. We then chased after him and found that there was also a deep ice cave here, which seemed to be connected to the previous ice abyss and also led to the nine-story demon building under the ice slope. On this ancient glacier, there are still many such ice caves. The structure below it is so complex that it is difficult to guess with common sense.

Once "Snow Maitreya" was hidden here, we couldn't do anything about it, so we had to rush to the edge of the ice cave and curse a few times, and returned in disappointment. Fatty and I asked the first day of the Chu 1st, why did the Xue Maitreya just gain the upper hand and escape first? What exactly is it? Why did it turn a woman's body into that shape in less than a few hours?

The first day of the Chu Dynasty said that there is no time to talk about these things now. It’s okay for us guys to say, but there are two girls and an old comrade in the team. The tent is gone this time. We can’t let them stand on the glacier just by facing the wind and snow. First find a safe place to shelter and settle down. Besides, it’s not too late to talk about the snow Maitreya. Don’t worry, it won’t come out as soon as the sky is dawn. The worst thing is that until the snow will continue to stop tonight, the wolves will not retreat. It’s enough for us to attack us on both sides.

We returned to the place where the tent was dumped. It was already dawn, but the snow was falling all the time. The tent was over, so we had to abandon it on the spot. The vast snow field was covered with heavy snow. However, before the ice surface was completely frozen, it was very dangerous to walk far away. There were only a few undulating snow hills nearby, and there was no place to accommodate.

Shirley Yang said there is only one place to go now, just dig up the nine-story demon tower, at least dig up the top layer first, we all go there to avoid the wind and snow, light a fire there, so that the airflow will rise, blocking the snow at the entrance, so that the entrance can be avoided being covered by snow before the snow stops, and the wolf pack is afraid of fire and dare not attack easily.

Even we said this plan was very good. The ice and snow were so cold outside that it was so cold that it was so cold that it wanted to dig out the nine-story demon building as soon as possible. No matter what kind of ghost birds there were inside, it would be fine if it just went inside to sleep for a while to relieve fatigue. After raising enough energy, dig out the "glacial crystal corpse" in one breath, and then take advantage of the cold wave to freeze the glacier and retreat.

Everyone did it as soon as they said, and transferred all the equipment and supplies to the side of the snow slope where the wind was dug out a large piece of snow, revealing the dark blue ice layer below, and still brushing the ginger juice onto the ice surface. While waiting for the seepage, I told me something I heard about two years ago. Although it also happened in the deep mountains of Kunlun Mountain, it was very far from Karamir.

An ancient terrifying legend is circulating among Tibetans. On the snow-capped mountains, whenever the night is dark, there will be monsters living under the ice to plunder the corpses that have just died. They will penetrate into the corpses' clothes, and the surface of the corpses will turn white, and the outside is like a layer of white flesh. As the outside skin is constantly absorbed, the surface will grow bigger and bigger, and it can grow as big as two people add up, and then gradually shrink with consumption.

During this process, it will continue to bite the living people and animals. If it cannot eat the living people within two or three days, it will slowly wither and shrink, disperse again, and hike into the underground glacier to hide until it finds new dead people. This kind of thing likes to drill into snow ditches and ice pits, and only appears late at night. More than 700 years ago, it caused a major disaster and there were no dead people and animals. There is a set of "Biography of the Supreme Master Tsongkhapa" in the temple's scriptures, which has a very detailed record of this matter.

I asked Chuyi: "It turns out that Xue Maitreya is not a thing, but a group of people? Many of them gather together?"

Chu nodded and said, yes, at most, a dozen things would be attached to a corpse. Only they absorbed the flesh and blood in the corpse and became fat, like a whole bunch of fat meat, sticking to dead people layer by layer. From a distance, they looked like a very fat snowman. Local people called it "Snow Maitreya". When "Snow Maitreya" was in disaster, it was many years ago. Because it was too long, people gradually forgot these things.

Until two years ago, something happened so fierce that many people died. It was because some people from the Dikan team went to work at a place above the snow line in Kunlun Mountain. As a result, a few fat snowmen were dug out of the snow. Before the geological team could figure out the situation, they were rushed into the snow nest by those white humans. Ten people in the team escaped back alive.

There was an avalanche in the area where the geological team members were killed not long ago. A mountaineering team composed of many countries lost contact with the outside world there. The older monk in the temple said that the fat snowmen encountered by the geological team may be the bodies of the mountaineering team entangled by "Snow Maitreya". It happened that people were mobilized to find the missing mountaineering team and the bodies of the geological team members. So the nearby herders and lamas, plus the army, went to a total of 100 people, searched in the snow-capped mountains for five days, and returned in vain.

The only weakness of "Snow Maitreya" is that it can only come out at night and dare not show up even if there is rain and snow during the day. In addition, it was mentioned in "The Biography of the Supreme Master Tsongkhapa" that this kind of thing is particularly afraid of big salt.

Chuyi said to us: "But now we don't have big salt and there is very little salt. Xue Maitreya will definitely come back tonight. Now the wolves must also hide in a nearby ice ditch to shelter from the wind and snow, waiting for the opportunity to sneak attack. It seems that there will be a good show on the glacier tonight."

The fat man held the rifle and said, "It's a pity that the guy is not very good at it. Moreover, the environment in this area is very unfavorable to us. Otherwise, Fat man would dare to practice with it alone. What about snow Maitreya? When I get to this point, I will make it a thin person."

What the fat man said makes sense. The snow-covered glaciers are full of ice crack traps, which are very dangerous. At present, it seems that the only way to dig open the demon tower under the ice layer first to see the environment inside, which may be used as a support fortification.

In a moment, the ginger juice had already penetrated into the ice surface. Everyone worked together to dig up the ice layer. Within five or six meters, they dug out large pieces of wood similar to the Qilian round cypress. Just like what I saw in the volcano, it was a combination of square wood, logs, and rammed earth. If you do it here, civil engineering work is more troublesome than digging hard ice. Fortunately, there are many people and quick hands and complete tools. In less than half an hour, the first floor of the demon tower was dug.

In order to prevent the "Immortal Karma Fire" and "Dap Ghost Worm" under the ice layer, we made sufficient preparations, but unexpectedly, the first floor of the demon tower had nothing. When we entered, we looked like a low room made of civil and wood, mainly black wood and gray-white rammed earth, with a very depressing color. In this layer, there was only a huge ice plate on the ground. The ice plate was transparent, a very thin layer with a statue engraved on the surface. It seemed that if you want to dig down further, you had to break the ice plate.

Shirley Yang looked at the statue of the god. It was a wolf head and a military general with armor. The wolf head was white and the armor was silver. It seemed that he had seen this image somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a moment. While thinking about it, Uncle Ming and others also went down to the tower one after another.

At this time, in order to find a suitable place to rest earlier, Chuyi and Fatty had already started to knock on the ice plate with ice chisels, but the sound was not right when they heard it. Then they took off their gloves and touched it with their hands. It was not ice, but a large piece of circular crystal.

Uncle Ming was also watching the fat man and others work. The demon tower was extremely dark, so he didn't see the wolf-head carving. When we got closer to check the materials of the disc, the spotlights on the helmet shone on it. Uncle Ming then saw it. His face suddenly changed color. He hurriedly took out the scriptures of the Cyclone Sect, pointed to the wolf-headed demon god on the crystal plate and said that this ice mountain crystal stone cannot be destroyed. There is the curse of the white wolf demon slave of the Demon Kingdom. Once it was broken, the curse came out.

I shook my head and didn't believe it. In "The Secret Technique of the Sixteen-character Yin and Yang Feng Shui", there is an explanation of the layout of the nine-layer demon tower. I have also seen it in the volcano. There is no mechanism on this layer. The disc of the ice mountain crystal stone should be a tower burial decoration called "spiritual cover", and each layer is connected to it.
