Chapter 544 The Ice Cave

When Chen Ran and the others poked their heads out from the cracks in the rocks, they were stunned by the scene they saw, as if they had seen a ghost, even more horrified than seeing a ghost.

They can't be blamed for this. In fact, what they saw shocked them even more than seeing a ghost. It can be said that even if they really saw a ghost at this moment, they wouldn't be so horrified. and shocked!

Guess what they saw?

ice cave!This turned out to be a huge ice cave!

It can be said that this is a world of ice!

Mountains, trees, stones...everything is made of ice.

The entire ice world illuminates the entire ice cave, allowing people to see the situation inside the ice cave without using the light of a flashlight. The dome of the ice cave is like a closed pot lid. The location is nearly a hundred meters.

The ground inside the ice cave is undulating. In the hinterland of this ice cave, there are countless huge icicles towering, and there are also many icicles hanging upside down from the dome, like swords pointing at the earth. They are more like ice pillars than ice pillars. Mineral crystals have regular quadrangular, pentagonal, hexagonal and other forms. The tall ones reach the dome like spears and spears, the low ones are like bamboo shoots breaking through the ground, and the first blooms, and there are many pyramids. The point-to-point connection between the sky and the earth gives people an indescribably shocking momentum at a glance!

There are countless holes on the rock walls around the ice cave, that is, rock crevices like the one where Chen Ran and the others poked their heads out, but there are very few rock crevices as big as the one where Chen Ran and the others poked their heads out. It is a fist-sized pit, full of holes like a hornet's nest.

In this ice cave, the black light 'exposed' from the cracks in the rocks formed a stark contrast with the entire white world of the ice cave, and it had a great impact on Chen Ran's vision.

This was not the only thing that shocked Chen Ran's vision.

If it is just the scene in front of them, although it will surprise Chen Ran and the three of them, it will not shock them. After all, the ice cave in front of them can only be regarded as a spectacle, and neither Xiaoyu nor Wu Bing Ordinary people, needless to say Xiaoyu, Wu Bing is a soldier, even if he has never seen such a spectacle, his ability to accept it must be stronger than ordinary people.

Not to mention Chen Ran.

Drilling out of the cracks in the rocks, an ice cave appeared in front of him, which was completely expected by Chen Ran. In Ding Dian's memory, there was such an ice cave here, and there was even an ice cave in this ice cave. The name is called Ice Cave.

Where there are people, there are fights, especially when resources are scarce. Ding Dian and his fellow laborers dare not fight with the guards of Prince Qi's Mansion, but there are fights among the laborers. These laborers fight like It is as frequent as everyday food, and the guards of Prince Qi's Mansion generally turn a blind eye and close their eyes. Since the hard workers are still required to work, even if these hard workers make mistakes, they will not be executed. The only punishment The method is to lock the person who made a mistake in a cold ice cave and starve him for a day or a few days. In such a severe cold place, it can be said that even a strong man cannot bear a few hours. There are traditional martial arts that can't last long without eating or drinking and can't replenish energy, so in the eyes of Ding Dian and his hard workers, the ice cave is a terrifying place of demons.

The rock crevice drilled by Chen Ran with Xiaoyu and Wu Bing just now was accidentally discovered by one of Ding Dian's brothers when he was locked in the ice cave. The first time Ding Dian was locked in the ice cave was because he was beaten to death. One person, the people above locked him in the ice cave, and even locked him up for a week. Although he was a master of the inner family, he couldn't bear it without eating or drinking. At that time, he was about to bear When he couldn't stop, his brother sneaked in from the crevice of the rock and brought him some dry food and hot water, which allowed him to overcome this difficulty. At that time, his brother proudly pointed to the rock crack on the top of the cave with him.

It was expected by Chen Ran that an ice cave emerged from the crevice of the rock, but what he didn't expect was that the current ice cave was different from before.

The difference is that now there are thousands of corpses piled up in this ice cave, piled up on the ice, hanging on the icicles...there are corpses everywhere, as if they have turned into corpses Like the ocean, the whole scene is like an abyss leading to hell.

What shocked Chen Ran and the others was the mountain of bones. If there were no such mountains of bones, perhaps they would be "fascinated" by the spectacular ice cave in front of them, but seeing the mountain of bones at a glance would not be enough. It was really hard for them to focus on the ice cave anymore, their eyes were all attracted by the ocean-like bones in front of them!

The three of them were stunned by the scene in front of them, and they couldn't even speak for a while. After a while, Chen Ran was the first to come back to his senses.

The first time Chen Ran came back to his senses, he looked at Xiaoyu and Wu Bing who were standing on both sides of him respectively. Wu Bing was still stunned, but Xiaoyu came back to his senses, but his expression was a little pale. white.

Seeing Xiaoyu's unresolved shock, Chen Ran quickly reached out and took her hand.

Feeling her hand being held by Chen Ran, Yan Ruyu glanced at Chen Ran, and unconsciously clenched Chen Ran's hand a little bit, as if it gave her a sense of security.

Before this, based on her experience, even when she encountered those organs and monsters in Guixiong Ridge, she had never been afraid. However, although the situation in front of her did not seem to be dangerous to them for the time being, seeing this After this scene, she couldn't help but make her terrified.

It can't be her fault, anyone who sees this scene will be terrified, there are at least tens of thousands of corpses piled up here, and it can be seen that these bones are human bones, which also means They used to be living people, but now there are only bones...

And with the scale of these bones piled up, how many people would have to die to have so many bones, tens of thousands?Hundreds of thousands?

"Here, what happened before? Why do you feel like you've returned to the ancient battlefield?" Wu Bing came back to his senses, wiped off his cold sweat, and quickly turned his head back to look at Chen Ran.

Yan Ruyu also looked at Chen Ran, the two obviously wanted to seek peace of mind from Chen Ran.

But how could Chen Ran give them a reasonable explanation, and he was even more surprised than them in this matter, because he was the only one present who knew that there were no bones in this place decades ago. These bones are obviously later.

He himself couldn't imagine what happened to this place later, why did so many people die here?

Who are the owners of these bones?How did he die here again?Could it be that after Ding Dian's death, the treasure place of Lord Qi was leaked and attracted other large troops to attack here?It's just that the situation in front of me doesn't seem to be the same, and if it is such a large-scale operation, it should be recorded in the history books. Then how did these bones come from?

Wu Bing looked at Chen Ran, and Yan Ruyu also looked at Chen Ran, but Chen Ran didn't say a word, just thinking.

After standing for a long time, Chen Ran finally looked at the two of them and said, "Let's not talk about this issue now, as you have seen, we have two choices next, one is to stop and retreat, and the other is to move on. Let me tell you first, if we continue to move forward, whether we will encounter any danger, or whether we can get out from here, it is uncertain."

What Chen Ran said was true. Although he knew about the crack in the rock, he really couldn't say whether he could get out of the ice cave. He only knew that the entrance and exit of the ice cave were not the same as the hard workers The place where he lives is connected. Just now he thought of this crack in the rock because he thought that if he wanted to go out from the place where the hard workers lived, he could go to the ice cave first. If he could go out from the entrance of the ice cave, then That is to say, they have gone out of the cave where the hard workers lived.

But this is under the prerequisite of being able to go out of the ice cave, and what is the place after going out of the ice cave, can you go out from that place again?Then Chen Ran didn't know.

Ding Dian has lived here for eight years, but Ding Dian is only familiar with the place just now. He may be familiar with other places, but he doesn't know the exit and entrance at all.

After Chen Ran said this, Yan Ruyu didn't express anything, and her not expressing it was undoubtedly her greatest expression, showing that she and Chen Ran were one, and she would do whatever Chen Ran did.

Chen Ran didn't ask Yan Ruyu to express it, because at the moment they both had the same idea in their hearts, they lived together, and died together.

"Brother Chen, I'll listen to you. You can do whatever you want." Wu Bing simply gave Chen Ran the right to choose without even thinking about it.

"Okay, then let's move on." Chen Ran was not surprised by Wu Bing's answer, and if he had a choice, he would naturally choose to move on.

He was not someone who gave up easily before, but after he died once, he would not give up easily.

Wu Bing and Yan Ruyu were also not surprised by Chen Ran's choice. They both nodded when they heard Chen Ran's words.

Now that it's done, there's nothing to say, and with this choice given by Chen Ran, it doesn't seem so scary when they face the mountain of bones in front of them again.

In fact, the reason why Chen Ran said that just now was to give them courage. Going down from this crack in the rock is extremely dangerous. If you accidentally fall down, you may be stabbed to death by an ice pick, so let them overcome their horror at the bones in front of them first. psychology.

It was Chen Ran who was the first to emerge from the cracks in the rocks. Just as he got out of the cracks and entered the ice cave, suddenly, there was a gust of cold wind that pierced his bones, and he was 'exposed' outside. The skin hurts as if being scratched by a knife.

Chen Ran hastened to stop Xiaoyu from getting out from the crevice of the stone, and helped her wrap up the 'exposed' skin and her face, only letting her 'show' a pair of eyes.

And Wu Bing followed suit, because he didn't wear a coat, so he put the undershirt he put on just now on his head and covered his head, and Chen Ran also wrapped himself up like this.

The icicle on one side hugged Yan Ruyu first, and then dragged Wu Bing down. The ground was too slippery to stand on. The three of them squatted down on the ice wall. Even so, they moved forward. If you take a step, you have to slip and fall. The most important thing is that it is too cold, and they are still wearing summer clothes. Their hands are too cold, but they still have to hold a large piece of ice. The ice cubes seemed to be different from the ice cubes outside. I always felt an indescribable cold air in the ice cubes, and the cold air suddenly penetrated into the body when it came into contact with the ice cubes. This was simply torture.

Although Chen Ran was still waking up from a serious illness, his qi and blood were extremely smooth, and the smoothness of qi and blood would undoubtedly bring warmth to his body. Therefore, he could still bear it, while Yan Ruyu and Wu Bing couldn't bear it. no more.

Chen Ran walked forward and turned his head to pay attention to Yan Ruyu and Wu Bing all the time. Seeing Yan Ruyu shivering from the cold, his heart ached so badly that he walked forward for a while and turned back to hold her hands in them again. Rubbing and blowing on the mouth.

Yan Ruyu looked at Chen Ran who was blowing his hands to her, she kept crying, but she cried and laughed at the same time, hugged Chen Ran while crying and laughing, and Chen Ran also hugged her tightly to warm her body.

Wu Bing was also shivering from the cold, but he didn't have Xiaoyu's treatment, but Chen Ran didn't forget him, reminding him and encouraging him all the time.

Although Wu Bing was so cold that he couldn't stand it, his body became stiff even when he was crawling, but whenever he thought of the three of them under such circumstances, they still stayed together and shared weal and woe for a long time. He has forgotten what it feels like to be excited, but he feels a little excited, and just thinks that even if he dies here, it is worth it, and when he saw the deep relationship between Chen Ran and Yan Ruyu, he even thought about it. If there is danger, he will let the two of them escape even if he is desperate for his own life.

If he was only grateful to Chen Ran when Chen Ran saved his life, but now he fully approves of Chen Ran.

In this way, the three of them braved the severe cold, encouraged each other, supported each other, and tried their best to step forward step by step on the bones with difficulty, accompanied by the "creak" of stepping on the frozen bones. Under the rubbing sound of "creaking", in this ice cave, the three of them passed through the depths of the ice cave for about a mile on top of the pile of bones, as if the undead had returned from hell. After the road, finally came to the end.

But when they reached the end of the ice cave, what appeared in front of them was a palace wall. This palace wall could not see the roof of the palace when looking up, and the corner of the wall could not be seen when looking around. The copper-skinned red door stands tall, and copper nails the size of a sea bowl are arrayed on the door.

Seeing this door, Chen Ran, Yan Ruyu and Wu Bing suddenly thought of one word at the same time: majestic.
