Chapter 75 Exhaustion

The north wind howled, and the cold wind wrapped in snowflakes swept everything in the wilderness. A thin figure was struggling to move in the knee-deep snow. His whole body was covered with a layer of blood scab that had frozen into ice, like

Wearing a blood-colored ice suit, the ice was rustling with every step he took. He marched mechanically like this for a long time, until a nearly 100-meter-wide river appeared in front of him. The raging river continued to flow despite the cold weather and freezing ground.

.

The figure's mechanical pace stopped, and this stop seemed to stop time. He stood motionless on the shore, and the goose-feather heavy snow quickly buried him.

Two days later, the cold wind gradually subsided, and the heavy snow turned into light snow. However, the temperature dropped again, the flowing river began to slow down, and a thin layer of ice formed on the surface.

A dilapidated small fishing boat anchored in the river. There was a bearded old man sitting on the fishing boat. The old man was wearing rags, with a bamboo hat on his head and a fishing rod in his hand. He took a sip from time to time.

Shaojiu, humming an unknown song, and leisurely fishing in the river.

The soju in the pot was quickly gone, and he also caught three fat fish. The old man put away the fishing rod in a drunken manner, and was about to go back to the cabin to take a nap. As soon as he stood up, he saw a snowman standing on the shore not far away.

, No, it’s not a snowman, it’s more like an ice sculpture, with a faint red glow in the sun.

The old man shook his head and went back to the cabin to fall asleep. He slept until the afternoon before getting up unsteadily. Seeing that the ice sculpture was still there, he hesitated for a moment, paddled the boat to the shore, and walked over to take a closer look.

, I was immediately startled, it was not an ice sculpture, it was a human being, a person who had frozen to death! Cursing himself for bad luck, he was just about to leave when he suddenly saw the ice sculpture holding a shining weapon in both hands.

I looked around and saw that no one was there in the freezing cold weather. I stretched out my foot and kicked the ice sculpture over. The ice sculpture was frozen solid. I went back to the boat and got a hammer before breaking it open.

When he saw the face of the ice sculpture, the old man's expression changed and he exclaimed: "Little Luo."



Luo Kai felt like he had fallen into an endless abyss, his consciousness constantly wandering between darkness and nothingness. Compared to the eternal nothingness, the darkness gave him a strange sense of warmth. He didn't know how long it had been like this.

, the stinging pain coming from his body pulled him back from the darkness.

Opening his eyes, he saw in front of him an old man with a messy beard. He looked very familiar. It took him a long time to remember that it was the homeless man with a big beard who was on the overpass.

"Xiao Luo, wake up, damn, you are so tough, I am ready to bury you!" The bearded man shouted in surprise.

Luo Kai wanted to speak, but his voice no longer seemed to belong to him. His lips moved for a long time but he couldn't say a word.

"Hey, Ronaldinho, you have to hold on, don't be discouraged, you see, old man, I am not living well."

Luo Kai didn't understand what he meant, and looked around blankly. He was in a simple thatched hut. In addition to the bearded man, there were several homeless people in ragged clothes, all looking at him strangely.

Luo Kai lowered his head in confusion, only to see that his chest, arms, and even the muscles all over his body were tightly wrinkled together, as if he had polio. Broken hair kept flying in front of his eyes. When he reached out and touched it, he immediately pulled it off his head.

Take off your gray hair.

My breathing couldn't help but become heavier. The scary thing was that after the inhaled air entered the lungs, the failing lungs could not hold so much air. It spread into the chest like a bellows leaking, and then leaked from a narrow wound in the chest.

It came out, so he could only breathe heavily to get a little bit of oxygen filtered into his blood.

After carefully sensing the body, not only the appearance, but also most of the organs in the body were in a state of atrophy. Only the heart was still beating tenaciously, struggling to maintain the operation of the body's functions.

The bearded man looked at him pitifully and asked: "Xiao Luo, did you climb out of the mountain of swords?"

Luo Kai smiled bitterly and struggled to sit up. He felt that he was almost like a baby now. Every small movement took all his energy. After working hard for a long time, he finally said his first sentence: "Big... big beard, yes

Did you save me?"

The bearded man began to talk eloquently: "Yeah, you don't know, you were frozen into an ice sculpture, I brought you back and heated it up... There is no intact part of your body, your intestines are leaking all over the floor, but

I was scared to death, old man, and I thought about burying you, but then I found that you actually had a heartbeat, so I tried to feed you some food, but you actually came back to life!"

Luo Kai saw a mirror next to the bedside, and what he saw was a somewhat terrifying face, with gray hair, sunken cheeks, and wrinkled skin covering the facial bones. There was no trace of flesh inside, and it looked like

A mummy.

What happened that night flashed through my mind, and I understood a little bit. At that time, I was already at the point where I was running out of gas, but I forcefully mobilized my energy and blood, and finally even started to burn my energy and blood. Everything in the world must follow the law of conservation of energy. Without

Energy can be created out of nothing, and the price of burning Qi and blood is to overdraw his vitality. Now almost all his organs are in a state of failure, and a large area of ​​his body cells are dying, just like an old man who is about to die of illness.

After a long time, Luo Kai looked away and said softly: "Thank you, Big Beard, where are you?"

"This is my home. I can't survive in Longyang City anymore, so I and a group of old guys found a small village on the bank of Nilong River. The village chief here is pretty good. He doesn't dislike us old guys, but rather

Built a house for us."

Luo Kai nodded, glanced around and said, "Big Beard, have you seen my things?"

The bearded man scratched his head and said with a dry smile: "That... that Xiao Luo, you know that we old guys can't support you, and this small village is very poor...

Luo Kai looked shocked and said hurriedly: "Did you sell it?"

"That's not true."

The bearded man took out a small cloth bag from his pocket and said a little embarrassedly: "Ronald, I spent a lot of money to save you, so I just used one."

There were a few gold coins in the bag, the same ones that Luo Kai had picked up at the Dragon Shark Camp. Of course Luo Kai didn't care about the money, but his two weapons.

When he finally burned his blood, the two weapons simultaneously resonated with his spiritual consciousness, allowing him to have a deeper understanding of what a vicious weapon is.

The vicious weapon will absorb the resentment, fear, despair and other negative emotions of the deceased before death. As more and more creatures are killed, it will have an extremely strong vicious aura. If an ordinary person takes it, it will definitely affect their sanity.

It is possible to become a murderer overnight.

"It's not this. You can take these money. They are my weapons. Those two weapons are a bit unknown. It's not good for ordinary people to take them."

"Oh, those two swords, why do they always feel like they are leaking? I buried them, so I will find them for you. Dawei, Niudan, come with me to dig things up."

The bearded man took the bag back excitedly and asked a few homeless people to leave in a hurry. You must know that one gold coin is ten thousand stars, which is enough for them to eat and eat for half a year, and the savings of these dozen gold coins can be completely saved
