Chapter 472: Corpse
"I'm really going to bite my teeth!"
Lin Feiyan took a bite of the hard compressed biscuit, chewed hard with her snow-white teeth, and said dissatisfiedly.
Since the Lijian Group was incorporated by Luo Yuan, she has not had a good life. She spent almost all her time searching for possible survivors on the original site of the reconstruction area. Although her unique evolutionary ability makes her not afraid of the cold at all, she has suffered enough in the wind and stomach every day.
This is not the most annoying thing. It would be fine if the survivor could be found. At least her hard work was meaningful. After all, now that humans are undergoing major changes, even the selfish people will be deeply infected in this environment. However, their entire sword team has been searching for several months. Not to mention the survivor, they can't even find a body.
"I'd better wait until I boil the water before eating!" Wu Qianru next to her persuaded, while she put down the backpack behind her, unzipped the zipper, and took out the alcohol lamp, a portable small pot, and a wooden water storage tank. Even if she didn't open it, she knew that the water inside had been frozen tightly.
"Please, it's better to eat it directly!" Lin Feiyan muttered, and kept making crisp sounds like biting ice, which made her teeth itch. In the cold weather, the compressed biscuits were almost as hard as stones. If she hadn't been an evolutionist, she wouldn't have been able to bite them at all.
Wu Qianru didn't persuade her again. She was not like Lin Feiyan, who was not afraid of the cold. Even if she had good teeth, her stomach would be too cold to bear.
She took out a clean cotton cloth and hammer from her backpack, spread the cotton cloth on the ice surface, picked up the hammer and gently hit the water storage tank around it. Soon the ice cubes fell off the water storage tank and fell on the cotton cloth.
She skillfully wrapped the ice in cotton cloth, then picked up the iron again and smashed the ice hard.
A few minutes later, she untied the cotton cloth and all the ice cubes inside had broken. She picked a few pieces and threw them into the small pot. The remaining ice cubes were refilled into the water storage tank by her, then lit the windproof alcohol lamp and started boiling water.
The flames quietly slapped the bottom of the pot, and soon the water started to bloom. She took out two cups and poured one:
"for you!"
Lin Feiyan was not polite either. She took the cup and drank it dry in one sip. She moaned comfortably, as if the glass of water that had just boiled was warm water. After a while, she asked Wu Qianru:
“How far is the city ahead?”
"It should be more than ten kilometers." Wu Qianru poured herself a cup, then soaked the compressed biscuits in hot water, and said casually.
"When we searched for the city ahead, we will go back to rest for a while!" Lin Feiyan sighed. She has experienced a lot of training during this period and has matured a lot compared to before: "Speaking of all, we have been out for a week and have almost used supplies, so it's time to go back."
"Oh! I can finally take a few days off." Wu Qianru said with a little joyful expression.
It is unimaginable that she has not experienced it personally. She trekked in the snow during the day, shivered in the sleeping bag at night, and there was no clean water at all. Before going to bed, she had to filter the snow with her carry purifier to meet the water needs of the next day.
What’s worse is that in extremely cold weather, the purified water will soon freeze. Before washing your face and brushing your teeth every day, you must first melt the ice.
This is a good weather, but since the war, the climate here has been extremely abnormal. Blizzards are common, and sometimes even hail, and they have experienced a huge hail.
It was late last month's night. It was when they were sleeping soundly. The hail fell like their sleeping bag without warning. Hail as big as a football fell from the sky like a meteorite. Even if the two were evolved, they would hurt and feel embarrassed when they hit them. In particular, there were flat ice fields nearby, and they had no way to hide. The two could only hold the tent with their hands and endured it in the middle of the night. The hardships in this were really like drinking water, and they knew the heat and coldness.
...
Taking advantage of lunch time, they rested for half an hour and then set off again.
Not long after, I arrived at the original city site.
"This place is probably the scope of Fenjin City." Lin Feiyan glanced at the latitude and longitude of the smart terminal, then looked around and said.
There are no traces of human cities here, except for the thick ice and snow on the ground, it is also ice and snow.
"No one should be alive!" Wu Qianru sighed. The situation she saw recently was like this. She had long since she had no hope. Now she is just doing her best to do her best.
"No matter what, I'd better search around first." Lin Feiyan said.
...
Now the ground is covered with thick ice and snow. The two of them are not human-shaped nuclear weapons like Luo Yuan. They are single and weak, and can easily break through the ice layer. It is impossible to search in detail, but there is no way out.
The easiest way to determine whether a city has survivors is to find possible vents.
After all, if a city has survivors, it cannot be sealed. Otherwise, lack of oxygen will cause everyone to die. In addition, three months have passed since the disaster. Even if there are survivors in underground cities without vents, they may have suffocated to death.
The two took out the terrain detector from their backpacks and started working. This kind of thing is widely used and is an indispensable instrument in the fields of civil engineering and infrastructure, structural injury measurement, etc. Therefore, even in the Hope Market, there are still a lot of stocks.
With this kind of instrument, they can save a lot of effort.
Time passed minute by minute, several hours passed, and time gradually came to the evening, but unfortunately, the two of them saw nothing except ice and snow.
Lin Feiyan, who had exhausted her patience, was about to notify Wu Qianru nearby to finish work. Suddenly, he heard Wu Qianru screaming: "Captain, come here, here... there is a corpse here."
Lin Feiyan was shocked when she heard this and hurriedly walked over. Now the ice layer on the ground is dozens of meters thick, and it is constantly thickening at a speed of about one meter every day. In addition, the ice and snow here are not transparent, and almost one-third of them are covered with dust, dirty color, and black. Generally speaking, even if there are corpses below, they cannot be seen with the naked eye.
The fact that the body was found means that the person had not died for a long time, maybe half a day, maybe one day, but at most it would not exceed two days.
Because over time, the body was buried and could not be seen.
The existence of the corpse indicates that there are extremely likely places for survivors to gather nearby.
"Where?" Lin Feiyan trotted over and asked hurriedly.
"Look at it!" Wu Qianru's face was a little nervous, her breathing was rapid, and she said, pointing to a piece of arm that was exposed to the ice five or six meters away.
Through the dirty ice and snow, you can vaguely see a young and **** corpse buried inside.
Lin Feiyan looked in the direction and her face changed slightly. It was not a pity that Wu Qianru was so incompetent. It was really weird and bizarre. She found that the corpse was exposed and there was no sign of being frozen at all. No, let alone being frozen, the skin color of this arm did not look like a corpse at all.
Its skin on the surface is rosy and shiny, with a hint of pinkness. It is unimaginable that he (she) was buried in the ice layer, and he was even very likely to be alive.
You should know that the earth is now close to minus seventy degrees, and even the two-level extreme night is just like this. If you don’t wear clothes, except for a special evolutionist who can absorb material energy, the rest of the sword group will not last long under such a terrible temperature.
Moreover, looking at his (her) arms and body size under the ice, he obviously looks like a five or six-year-old child.
"Captain, what should I do?" Wu Qianru asked.
This matter is really weird. Even a super evolver like Wu Qianru is somewhat invincible.
"Let's go up and take a look first, maybe you're still alive!" To be honest, Lin Feiyan herself was also a little scared, but after all, she was the captain, and she was much calmer than Wu Qianru. No matter what, as the captain, it would be a shame to escape without fighting in front of the team members.
However, just as she took a deep breath without hesitation, just as she was about to walk over, her eyes suddenly saw the arm exposed to the ice, and she moved slightly, and gently squeezed her little hand.
This discovery almost made her heart miss half a beat. Before she could calm down, she saw the ice layer wiping out, and the ice cubes buried in the body suddenly shattered. A small figure sat up from the ice cube, revealing her exposed back, and countless broken ices flowed all over the ground.
Seeing her (his) natural movements, it seemed that it was not a hard ice cube as hard as iron on her body, but a layer of crisp milk skin. She (his) turned her back to everyone, seemed a little sleepy. She yawned, turned her back to everyone and was stunned for a while, and then stood up.
Lin Feiyan and Wu Qianru looked at each other and felt a sense of slightness in their hearts. Although they had not seen each other's ability, the power they showed just now made the two of them very afraid.
You should know that the ice layer at around minus 70 degrees Celsius has a hardness of about the same as steel. If it were any of the two, it would be impossible to destroy it as easily as the other party.
The two of them quietly retreated, but before they could take a few steps, they seemed to hear the movement. The unknown child suddenly turned around.
This is a little girl with a pink and jade-like appearance, naked, and the fine ice chips slowly melted on her body, emitting a buzz of mist, as if she was shrouded in mist.
When she saw the two girls, she was surprised first, and soon shouted with surprise:
"Ah, I finally saw someone!"
Lin Feiyan and Wu Qianru looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, at least the other party is a human being and can communicate.
Wu Qianru asked carefully: "Little...girl, why are you lying here?"
"Hello, auntie, I'm sleeping!"
The little daughter spoke clearly and was very polite, but the answers she said made the two women look at each other.
"Where did you come from?" Wu Qianru thought about it and asked again. Perhaps she could get news about the survivors from her mouth.
"Xinjing No. 3 Genetic Laboratory, but the people there are gone, my sisters, brothers and brothers are gone, and even the aunts who take care of us are gone, I am looking for them!" the little girl said with a naive look on her face.
