Liu Yun's words obtained the unanimous approval of a few people present.
Xu Yun Xi looked at Liu Yun in shock and said: "I didn't expect you to have such a minute observation!"
Liu Yun laughed bitterly, "Little stream, are you praising me or insulting me? After all, I am someone who had roamed the underworld before! "
Xu Yun Xi pouted and did not say a word.
Liu Yun continued: "It is also true that this person will not give up. He's already convinced that we have a way out, and he won't give up so easily. However, what I want to say is that the mastermind won't give up so easily. We should all be careful. Now that we are mixed together with strangers, we are unable to determine who is the real culprit behind this. Everyone needs to be on high alert and not act alone."
Everyone nodded.
He Yi Ning raised his head and looked at Xiaochun, "Xiaochun, what do you think?"
Xiaochun sighed."CEO, I'm sorry. I still couldn't tell who was behind it. When he entered the room that night, the light was too dim. Furthermore, the other party had attacked Xiao Xia and the rest, so I didn't dare to get too close to them in order to protect them. At that time, the other party was wearing a cloak which concealed his physique, making it impossible to determine his physique. In addition, the other party's voice had been deliberately altered, so it was impossible to determine if it was his real voice or not. There were so many people that it was impossible to tell them apart in such a short period of time. However, if his goal is to make me sad and let me die here, then he must be among those people! As long as he makes a move, we will have a chance to distinguish them! "
Hearing Xiaochun's reply, everyone couldn't help but sigh.
This mastermind was really persistent.
Furthermore, they had been pla ing for so long, how could they stop so easily?
The night was cold, and the wind was biting cold.
The low temperature continued. When a living person was outside, only those who had experienced it personally would know what kind of despair they would feel.
The group of people that had insisted on leaving earlier in the day had already scattered the corpses along the way.
However, the fear of the wolves had truly caused them to ignore everything else.
Especially those corpses that the wolves had torn apart with their own eyes. That kind of scene was the limit that they could not bear.
They would rather freeze to death in the Wasteland than face the bloody fear of being torn apart by wolves.
They hunched forward, huddled against the cold in vain.
But how could they withstand the cold of -20 degrees Celsius?
One by one, they fell to the ground.
As long as he fell down, he wouldn't be able to stand up again.
The people that continued onward also became numb. They mechanically walked forwards, not even having the courage to look back.
They were already far away from Hot Springs Town, so even if they wanted to go back, they wouldn't be able to.
This group of people were the ones that the Grim Reaper had set his sights on.
The grim reaper smirked as he stood on top of their heads, calmly harvesting their lives.
Although the blizzard had stopped, the wind was howling.
The wind swept up the snow on the ground, instantly engulfing those bodies that were gradually losing their vitality.
Bury them bit by bit.
After the wind died down, the ground returned to normal. It was as if nothing had ever happened. It was as if nothing had happened.
The devouring of nature was as tranquil as this, but also as brutal as this.
No matter how proud a human was, they would never be able to withstand a single blow from nature.
In the latter half of the night, there was only one human left, who was still struggling with his last breath.
However, he had also reached the end of his life.
He finally looked back.
He was the only person in the entire snowy plains.
The feelings of loneliness, fear, desolation, blankness, helplessness, and so on swept through his entire emotions in an instant.
His body was numb, but his brain was still working.
He knew very well that his life was slowly fading away.
He also clearly knew that he would not be able to see the sun rise tomorrow.
However, he had nowhere else to go.
If he had stayed in Hot Springs Town, he would have died under the torn claws of the wolves.
Walking out of Hot Springs Town, he was still dead, and in fact, he died without a burial ground.
The only difference was that he might be able to keep his corpse intact until it rotted in the spring when the snow turned into a new year's worth of plants.
Hunger and tiredness invaded his mind, slowing down his thinking speed by a lot.
In the end, he could only let out a simple and dry chuckle.
However, this simple chuckle was quickly swallowed up by the cold night, soaked and dispersed by the cold wind.
He was finally tired. He fell head first onto the snowy plains, raising his head to look at the brilliant starry sky above him.
The air here is good, very good.
It was not something that the developed cities in the east could compare with.
Here, the blue sky was clear and the stars were bright. Even though there was almost a full moon, it was still very clear that it was moving.
However, this was his last time viewing the stars.
Yes, for the last time.
He let out a final chuckle before he was stopped in his tracks by the cold starlight.
The people of the snowy plains were completely a ihilated, the people who stayed in the Hot Springs Town to wait for reinforcements did not seem to be very good either.
This was because someone soon became sick.
The people who were extremely cold and lacked enough protective gear finally fell ill after experiencing the slaughter of the wolf pack and relaxing their nerves.
A lot of people had died from this illness.
Xiaochun was obligated to help with the diagnosis, but due to the lack of effective antipyretic and antiseptic, he could only watch helplessly as their bodies were completely red from the fever, until they passed out.
The call for help had been going on for a long time, and he still hadn't received a response from the other side.
They still had to wait. Even though they knew it was a dead end, they still had to wait.
The remaining people seemed to have become more desperate.
Everyone became numb to it, even to the point of ignoring the deaths of others, even to the point of ignoring their own fate.
Shen Qi really wanted to help them, but she could do nothing about it.
She was a stylist, she could only dress people up beautifully, but did not know how to save other people's lives!
At this moment, Shen Qi was once again facing the fickleness of life.
Shen Qi snuggled up to He Yi Ning, hugged He Yi Ning's waist, and said: "Yi Ning, let's not split up for the rest of our lives, okay?"
"Alright." He Yi Ning replied gently, "We will never be able to separate."
"Yi Ning, if there comes a day when I leave??" He Yi Ning had not finished speaking when he covered Shen Qi's mouth and interrupted her, "I'll accompany you. Wherever you go, I go. You live, I live. If you die, I die. That's what I told myself at the cemetery. Xiao Qi, never say such words. That's not a joke. That's faith."
Shen Qi's eyes reddened."I'm sorry."
"Don't worry, we will leave this place safely. You want to trust your husband, huh? " He Yi Ning comforted Shen Qi on purpose: "Your husband has been through special training since he was young, no one can easily make him surrender."
