The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 685
Chapter 685: Winter’s Abyss
Du Lei had a dream, a very long dream, in which he became a tree, a tree rooted in the coldest place underground, a dream that never sees the sky all year round, surrounded by ice and snow. The howling wind made him feel a little cold, as if the blood had frozen.
No, he is a tree, where does the blood come from? He didn’t know how long he had stood in the cold wind in such a posture, maybe one day, maybe two days, maybe one year, maybe two years.
The years passed silently, he always stood there, and the roots of the tree were deeply rooted in the ground, absorbing the nutrients from the ground, because if there were no nutrients in this bad weather, he would die, and he still I don’t want to die, so the roots of the tree pierce deeper and deeper, as if going straight to the depths of the earth.
A steady flow of nutrients was conveyed to his body through the roots of the tree, which at last maintained his fragile life. He didn’t know how long it took. He felt that the tree was growing, and in a daze he saw someone walking towards him. As he approached, even though he was motionless, he was a tree, so how could he move? But his consciousness is awake. This is a long-lived dream, a dream that he thought he would never wake up again, but the dream is a dream after all, and a major feature of the dream is that it has a time to end.
“Doctor, look over here, there’s someone here.” Du Lei heard a voice yelling in a daze, but his body was very stiff. He tried to move his body, but found that the blood had solidified into a ball and moved slowly. And difficult.
“Is it another poor man who froze to death in the Abyss of Winter? Let’s bury him. This is the only thing we can do for him.” A voice of vicissitudes of life came over, with a little regret. mean.
“No, the soil here is very frozen, and it is very troublesome to bury him. Let’s stop doing such unnecessary things, right?” A male voice complained.
“It is a tradition to let the deceased enter the soil for safety. If you freeze to death one day, you will also tell those passing by that it is troublesome to bury me. You don’t have to do this, right?” Said teasingly.
“Tania, what are you talking about? How could I freeze to death, are you cursing me?” The male voice became a little unhappy, and he immediately defended.
“Anything can happen, of course, this is no exception, Doctor, Rod, after he applied for freezing to death, he will be like this corpse in the wilderness, so we don’t have to bury him, you can approve him.” The girl named Tanya earnestly Said.
“When did I do this? Tanya, don’t talk nonsense.” The young man named Rod corrected.
“Okay, don’t fight. Since we passed here and saw this helpless poor man, let’s bury him. In fact, this is just a matter of effort, and I hope he can go more peacefully. “The vicissitudes of life persuaded the two young people, and made the final decision.
“Understood, Doctor, I’m going to bury him right now, what are you doing there, Rod? Don’t hurry up and help dig the pit.” Tanya scolded her companion and directed loudly.
“So why are you doing this kind of thing every time.” Rod grumbled reluctantly. He wouldn’t do this kind of thing unless Dr. Sara spoke.
“Rhodes, are you a boy? Don’t you want a boy like you to do this kind of physical work? Do you want a lovely lady like me to do it?” Tanya said confidently.
“Lady? Please, Tanya, don’t you blush when you say this? I don’t see the slightest feminine temperament in you.” Rhode held his nose to this, he and Tani Ya has known each other for a while, and apart from being unruly and willful, he really didn’t find anything commendable from Tanya.
“That’s because you lack a pair of eyes to discover beauty. Okay, don’t dawdle, come and work quickly.” Tanya, who was not far away, didn’t take Rod’s words seriously, and she continued to urge. .
“It’s really a difficult guy to serve. Anyway, the inspection is over. I don’t have to bear with you for too long. Hey, the ice here is too thick, it’s really not easy to break it.” Rod whispered. His opinion on Tanya is not a matter of overnight. They have been investigating in the Abyss of Winter for nearly a week. During this time, they did not find the ancient ruins as the destination, which made them more or less all. There is a bit of regret.
But he knew that no matter how sorry he was, it was time to leave. The food and supplies they brought could not allow them to stay in this extremely cold place for too long. Otherwise, they would just be like the unknown guy in front of them. It’s just like being frozen to death in the ice and snow.
“Hey, Doctor and Rod, you guys come over and see, this person’s fingers seem to have moved slightly!” Tanya who was not far away suddenly exclaimed, and she said with some excitement.
“What are you talking about, Tanya? This person is frozen like this. How could he move? He died a long time ago, right?” Rhodes disagrees, because he knows Tanya is a curiosity. A very heavy guy would yell because of a small movement. He has seen this before, and he didn’t take it seriously.
“No, Rod, his fingers really moved. Hey, do you think he’s still alive?” Tanya was very excited about this. If other girls encounter this scene, I’m afraid I’ve already screamed, and I’m terrified, but Tanya has a strong curiosity by nature, especially when it comes to mysterious things with almost paranoid plots.
“How is this possible? Looking at him, I don’t know how long he’s been frozen here, how could he still be alive, Tanya, I understand that after reading those horror novels, you look forward to encountering mysterious events, but we are Scientists should believe in science and oppose those superstitious things, so just put away your excitement. Look, where did he move?” After Rod came to check the situation, he found that he was frozen into ice. It was a young man who seemed to be in his twenties. He had black hair and the face of an Oriental. If it were in the early years, this might have caused a sensation, but with the large railway that traverses the east and west continents. The construction has brought closer exchanges between the East and the West, and it is not surprising that you can often see the face of the East in the Western Continent.
