Night fell, and Qing Chen led everyone to find a sheltered spot to rest.
The Li Clan and Qing Family soldiers dug pits in the snow, burying themselves up to their necks, leaving only a small hole for breathing, using the snow to shield themselves from the biting wind...
Many thought this would make them even colder. In fact, under the most extre and harsh conditions, this thod slows down heat loss.
Moreover, it could also help evade the infrared thermal detection of aerial reconnaissance aircraft.
Qing Chen lay silently in the snow pit. He suddenly said to Li Cheng, “Old Li…”
“Boss, please don’t call Old Li, just call Li Cheng,” Old Li chuckled from his snow pit to the left of Qing Chen, “What are your orders?”
Qing Chen said, “We need to trek 159 kiloters within three days to reach our destination. We absolutely cannot be late, so the two of you must cooperate well. For any fallen comrades, use branches to make stretchers and drag them across the snow.”
Old Li and Qing Ling listened, suddenly realizing that this new Boss had a very clear plan.
159 kiloters, a specific target, it seed that once they reached that place, they would no longer have to worry about Shendai’s pursuit; it felt like they would be safe.
Qing Ling asked, “Boss, what’s there?”
Qing Chen thought for a mont, “I can’t tell you yet. You’ll know when we get there.”
Old Li laughed, “We can’t match Boss’s intelligence, we just need to follow orders.”
Qing Ling: “You old boy are really good at flattering.”
Old Li got angry in the snow pit, “Shall we fight now? I’ve disliked you since a02!”
“Co on then!” said Qing Ling.
“Are you afraid of ? Let’s do it!”
“Hehehe, co on then!”
Qing Chen couldn’t help but laugh. Old Li and Qing Ling were about the sa age, and neither would yield to the other.
The two of them challenged each other for a long ti, but neither was willing to crawl out of their snow pit, it was a hard-earned shelter after all.
Two masters of verbal sparring.
Qing Chen thought for a while and said, “Stop arguing, if you’re really bored, I’ll have Shendai Yunzhi and Gaoqiao Quanchi perform a talent show for you. How about that? Old Li, I’ll have Shendai Yunzhi kowtow three tis to you for Qing Ling. Qing Ling, I’ll have Gaoqiao Quanchi kowtow three tis to you for Old Li. This matter is settled, let’s go to sleep.”
Old Li: …
Qing Ling: …
They suddenly felt that this new Boss’s way of thinking seed a bit unusual!
Not far away, Shendai Yunzhi and Gaoqiao Quanchi, lying motionless in their snow pits, felt even more devastated. How could they, officers of the Shendai Consortium army, have fallen to such a state?
The soldiers hidden in the snow, though cold, found the unrestrained chatter extrely refreshing.
At the a02 base, even farting had to be done cautiously, and one dared not say a word more.
Now, although they were lying in the snow, they could chat happily about anything.
This is the aning of freedom.
But at this mont, Qing Chen suddenly held his breath, “Silence.”
Everyone was stunned.
After a few minutes, Qing Chen said, “There’s an engine sound in the sky, it must be a reconnaissance plane that just passed by.”
Old Li and Qing Ling were stunned. Reconnaissance planes usually fly at an altitude of over 3000 ters; how could they hear the engine sound? Was he cheating!
However, they unconditionally trusted Qing Chen at this ti.
Qing Ling hesitated, and finally asked, “Sir, can we really evade those two field armies? There seems to be a Forbidden Zone to the south; can we go through that Forbidden Zone? Are you planning to use this thod to evade the field armies?”
At this ti, Qing Chen said sothing that shocked the two of them, “No need to evade.”
“Ah?” Old Li was so shocked he almost sat up from the snow pit, “Boss, we’re going to fight them to the death?”
“No,” Qing Chen recalled what he had once said to Xiao Zhenji, and smiled, “I have a master.”
“Ah?” Old Li and Qing Ling were even more baffled.
Li Shutong once told Qing Chen that he would take him on the furthest path among all the shortcuts in the world.
But the master didn’t say at that ti that this path is never lonely.
Qing Chen suddenly asked, “After we escape, do you want to do sothing with ?”
Old Li and Qing Ling both fell silent; they didn’t know what their Boss ant.
They haven’t even escaped yet, and they’re already thinking about what to do after escaping…
Qing Ling asked, “Boss, what do you want to do?”
Qing Chen smiled, “Ignite the star fire, and spread it like wildfire.”
…
…
In the darkness, 60 kiloters away from the field army camp, in the Forbidden Zone number 138, soone was walking deeper into the zone, applying Feng Junhua pollen to their body.
This Feng Junhua is Fire Pit’s unique secret recipe; few people know that applying it and entering the Forbidden Zone, as long as they don’t violate the rules, they won’t be attacked by beasts, insects, or plants.
As the Elder walked deeper into the Forbidden Zone, he muttered, “I’m just here to help, but now Li Shutong has disappeared without a trace, leaving here as a coolie! Is there any justice in the world!”
“From now on, if any Knight cos to Fire Pit, don’t even think about drinking our Fire Pit’s highland barley wine! Not a single drop!”
“And, don’t even think about seeing our Fire Pit’s God Woman!”
The Elder muttered as he quietly watched.
Through the trees, he saw a group of Kui Ox with ice-blue fur huddled together resting on the ground.
If anyone were to talk about familiarity with the Forbidden Zone, Fire Pit would claim third place; no one would dare claim second, not even the Hu Family Intelligence Agency.
As for first place, of course, it’s Li Shutong…
The Elder knew this very well.
At this mont, the Elder quietly counted, “One, two… one hundred and forty, I wonder if that’s enough.”
As he spoke, a Kui Ox suddenly opened its copper-pot-sized eyes and looked at the Elder.
The Elder suddenly took out a small bottle from his brown satchel and poured the estrus-period mother god cow urine on the ground.
The next mont, the Kui Ox, which had been quiet, all went wild.
They stared intently at the Elder, panting heavily.
The Elder turned around and ran with the bottle, “What bad things did I do in my last life that I’m being punished by the gods to et a Knight in this life!”
The Elder ran faster and faster, not daring to stop for a mont.
…
…
230 kiloters south of Qing Chen and his group, a field army had just established a forward base to build a supply line for their continued advance north.
The base was brightly lit and heavily guarded.
Hundreds of chanical hunting dogs road around the camp, following preset routes to complete their night patrol.
Suddenly, a faint sll, like the sll of urine, drifted from the upwind snowfield, fleeting.
The chanical hunting dogs stopped in their tracks, standing still, sniffing.
But the sll was not aggressive, nor was it in the sequence of slls that required alert according to their program; soon, the chanical hunting dogs returned to normal.
In the command tent, the field army’s operations staff busily organized materials: holographic terrain sand table, fleet attack review, Qingshan Falcon combat effectiveness evaluation, and formulation of a combat system targeting Qingshan Falcon.
A war is complex and systematic.
The field army’s order was to wipe out all living humans on the northern snowfield. Initially, they thought they were prisoners who had escaped from the a02 base. Now it seems that the higher-ups had withheld information; they hadn’t told them the truth.
Otherwise, how could sothing like Qingshan Falcon end up here?!
But at this mont, a thunderous drumbeat and the sound of galloping hooves suddenly ca from the snowfield.
Soone in the command tent frowned and asked, “What’s going on? Why is there a drumbeat here!”
Soone went to the edge of the camp to check; in the heavy snow, nothing could be seen in the darkness outside the camp.
But the next mont, a grumpy old man suddenly appeared, holding a bottle, his speed so fast that he left a trail in the eyes, running straight towards the field army camp!
And, behind the grumpy old man, were one hundred and forty-seven maddened Kui Ox, sohow escaping from the Forbidden Zone!
The officer in charge of the night watch roared, “Open fire, don’t let the Kui Ox charge into the camp!”
Shendai’s army wasn’t stupid; they were elite regular troops!
In this camp, multi-functional infantry fighting vehicles were always on combat alert. If this round of concentrated fire went off, even a Demi-God would be shot into a sieve!
The old barbarian saw the multi-functional infantry fighting vehicle’s Matrix-style muzzle turning towards him, and imdiately panicked, charging while roaring, “Attack!”
At that mont, on the mountain peak in the distance, Lin Xiaoxiao sat in the snow with his eyes closed, Ye Wan quietly guarding him, “Boss said, don’t force it if you can’t do it.”
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled with his eyes closed, “Do you know, I haven’t tried this thod before, but thinking about how they locked Qing Chen up in a pigsty, I couldn’t help but feel angry. That boy has suffered so much; why can’t he have a smooth destiny.”
As he spoke, he suddenly wiped his forehead lightly and cut himself, creating a bloody gash.
Lin Xiaoxiao calmly said, “Nightmare!”
These two words echoed in the void like rolling thunder.
Two lines of blood tears suddenly flowed from Lin Xiaoxiao’s eyes!
In an instant, the old barbarian charging towards the camp saw that the officer who had just given the order in the camp opposite him closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The multi-functional infantry fighting vehicle’s Matrix-style muzzle stopped turning.
The drones that were taking off fell to the ground because their Neuron-connected controllers suddenly fell asleep.
Lin Xiaoxiao, by forcibly using the Nightmare technique, put nearly half of the field army’s soldiers to sleep for one second!
One second is enough to change many things.
Just one second!
The next mont, the Shendai officers woke up and scrambled to their feet, the soldiers in the multi-functional infantry fighting vehicles also woke up and hurried to resu control.
But the Fire Pit Elder had already burst into laughter, “One second, that’s enough!”
He was seen running swiftly across the snowfield, drawing a black knife from his waist, raising it diagonally, and chopping down!
“Open for !” The Elder roared.
From the black knife, a majestic blade energy of more than ten ters suddenly surged forth, splitting the camp’s defenses and creating a one-ter-deep fissure in the ground!
The power of this strike was like the sudden collapse of snow on Fire Pit’s holy mountain, rolling down to form a massive avalanche.
…
…
In the northern snowfield, Qing Chen lying in the ice pit suddenly said, “Let teach you a song.”
“Ah?” Qing Ling didn’t know what her new Boss was going to do.
Qing Chen sang, “Arise, you slaves who are hungry and cold,
Arise, all the suffering people in the world,
The blood in your hearts is already boiling,
You must fight for the truth,
There has never been any savior,
Nor do we rely on gods or emperors.”
Li Cheng and Qing Ling suddenly burst into tears; they didn’t know why.
