Hometown Town Ice 6

I don’t know how much time has passed, but Chu Li has been repeating the action of drawing cards.

However, what made her extremely desperate was that her own good luck was like a fleeting firework. No matter how she drew, the cards she drew were still overlapping cards.

Chu Li took a deep breath. The slight movement of breathing pulled at her wound, and the faint pain made her gasp.

She raised her eyes and looked at the darkening sky.

Time was running out, and she couldn't waste the remaining time on luck.

Chu Li retracted the card drawing interface, endured the severe pain, and struggled to stand up from the ground.

She didn't hesitate and climbed up again from her old position.

This time she crawled very slowly because of the injuries on her body.

After about forty minutes, she finally saw You Chengze's face clearly from a few dozen meters away from her.

The paleness of his face was terrifying, and Chu Li felt both distressed and relieved. She felt distressed that he had suffered so much, and relieved that she was not far from victory.

Chu Li continued to crawl, and when her palms touched the glacial ice, she felt a sense of unreality.

This time, the white-haired monster did not trip her up. Instead, it allowed her to travel smoothly and even reach her destination.

Could you really be so kind?

Chu Li thought for a while, then gave up the idea of ​​thinking about it further.

She glanced at the rows of glacier ice that were several heads taller than herself, and suddenly smiled helplessly. Rather than trying to trip them up, melting the glacier ice to save them would be the most interesting thing for him.

Chu Li took out the knife again, aimed it at the dented part he had chiseled before, and continued chiseling.

She looked at the man's face, her hands moving non-stop, and she felt anxious.

For some reason, she always felt that You Chengze was even weaker than before.

The white-haired monster said that these people would gradually die in the glacier ice, and if she did not complete the task before dark, the consequences would be the same as these people.

She didn't want to die, nor did she want to see her pet die, and even more so, she didn't want to see You Chengze die.

"You Chengze, can you hear me? If you can, just turn your eyes... I don't believe what that monster said. She was just trying to scare me. You will be fine. I am here to save you!"

"When we leave here, take me to eat the famous mainland delicacies. We won't go to collect stamps outside. It's too dangerous. Let's go back to where we came from and live together, okay?"

"You Chengze, wake up quickly. I won't be angry with you anymore, and I won't curse you in my heart. Open your eyes quickly and let me see your condition!"

…

Chu Li's words and hands movements never stopped, as if only by doing this in sync could she regain some motivation and hope.

However, the glacier ice was large in size, and her strength alone was too weak. After half an hour, her progress was still unremarkable.

By the end, she was already exhausted, and her body was covered in blood, from her hands, mouth, and palms.

She felt dizzy and even the simple act of lifting the knife became too exhausting.

how so……

She couldn't rest, she couldn't just fall asleep, she had to save people.

But I’m really tired and in pain. I just want to close my eyes and fall asleep.

Chu Li stopped what he was doing and wiped off the debris on the glacier ice.

Looking at You Chengze's quiet and emotionless face, she felt a sudden pang in her nose.

Although she had not known You Chengze for a particularly long time, this man had already occupied her life in Xumi Continent without her noticing.

And his own furry.

She had to admit that she wasn't some great character, nor was she some savior of some small town. Her initial thought was simply to buy some nice clothes for her fur ball.

She never thought that this team would gradually expand, nor did she think that she would be able to escape danger every time she encountered a desperate situation.

All of this is a bonus of good luck.

Now it wasn't enough, she couldn't draw any good cards, and she had no way to rescue these people in the remaining time.

Chu Li's eyelids felt heavy and his consciousness was becoming increasingly dizzy.

She stared at the man's face, almost closing her eyes.

Less than half a second later, she suddenly felt a heat in the palm of her hand, and instantly a burning sensation spread through her skin all over her body.

She was stunned for a moment, then looked up at her right hand.

In the palm of his hand, the jasmine flower blossomed in a pale green light, and a layer of blue-red fire surrounded the petals.

Chu Li's eyes lit up, and the energy in her heart made her feel full of energy. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and stretched out her hand towards the ice covering the glacier.

In an instant, the thick ice turned into liquid and flowed down like a rushing stream.

About half a minute later, You Chengze and Mao Rongrong fell to the ground from their suspended bodies. Chu Li quickly supported You Chengze and Mao Rongrong.

Each person had several spiritual pets, and the coldness on their bodies penetrated Chu Li's skin.

The spirit pets curled up in You Chengze's arms, their fur covered with snow and ice, looking extremely pitiful.

You Chengze's condition was even worse than the spirit pets. His face had turned pale due to being frozen for a long time, and his lips were purple and black, like a completely dead corpse.

Chu Li was heartbroken. How could a good person be so stupid and foolish!

She raised her left hand and tightly grasped You Chengze's wrist, then tilted her head to look at the others who were still hanging.

Without much hesitation, she raised her free hand and channeled all her energy towards the neatly arranged row of glacial ice.

In an instant, rows of glacial ice turned into water, and bodies were suspended in the air and then fell down.

If a person falls from such a height, he would be crushed to pieces even if he were fine.

Chu Li was shocked and didn't have time to stop what happened next.

The white snow rose up tacitly, floating slowly along the circle, and finally formed a soft and light energy halo, steadily catching the rows of residents.

Who came to help?

Chu Li was wondering, as he was gazing into the distance, when suddenly the ice sculpture beneath him began to shake.

Her body gradually began to lose balance. Chu Li panicked and held You Chengze's wrist tightly, protecting Mao Rongrong to prevent them from falling down due to the swinging force.

However, the expected change did not occur. The ice sculpture under my feet gradually descended and then gradually matched the cracked ice surface.

Chu Li held You Chengze in her arms, looking at the flat ground with a somewhat dull gaze. She moved forward a few steps and found that the barrier had also disappeared.

"You win."

The white-haired monster's voice echoed in the air.

Hearing this familiar voice, Chu Li couldn't help but panic, and silently placed his body in front of the spirit pet and You Chengze.

This time, even if it costs her own life, she will protect them first.

As if he could see what the girl was thinking, his thin lips curled slightly under his slightly long hair, and his voice was extremely helpless: "I am not a person who doesn't keep his word. Since you have completed the task, I am willing to accept the loss."

Chu Li opened his lips slightly, as if he had something else to say.

The next moment, a gust of wind blew past.

She subconsciously raised her hand and closed her eyes. When she opened them again, the world of ice and snow disappeared.

The plaque of the hometown town happens to be right opposite Chu Li. Looking inside, you can see rows of red castles and lush trees.

Everything was completely different from the blizzard and snowstorm she had just experienced.

With doubts in its mind, it turned back to look for the white-haired monster.

This white-haired monster's hair was not as long as it seemed when I first saw him, and it just revealed his pupil-less eyes.

"you……"

Why did it turn out like this?

"This is what the town originally looked like. Since you've already rescued everyone, naturally, I will fulfill my promise."

The white-haired monster spoke slowly.

Catching the key words, Chu Li's thoughts gradually became clear: "It was you who saved those people just now!"

"Yes... However, I didn't rescue them out of pity for them. I rescued them because you barely have a caring heart."

"Why?" Chu Li asked, "Why do you want to freeze them?"

As if these words touched a sore spot, it snorted with disdain, and said with a hint of anger on its face: "Why! They deserve it!"

"This place was once a habitat for many small animals. Later, with the invasion of foreign races, they cut down trees and built houses here, destroying the tranquility of the forest. Afterwards, these people started a massacre to fill their stomachs. My friends died under their hunting rifles to protect me." The white-haired monster's pupils were white with some scarlet around them. He pointed at his own eyes, "See? My eyes! My eyes are the result of these people's abuse of me! If they hadn't used their last lives to rebuild my eyes, I might never see again!"

Chu Li never imagined that the truth of the matter would be so cruel. She had no power to make the white-haired monster let go of the hatred deep in his heart, nor did she have the power to reconcile on behalf of the many residents of the town.

Chu Li took a deep breath and changed the subject: "Then why did you choose to save them?"

"I don't want to save them." The white-haired monster's eyes were red as he cast his gaze in her direction and then fell on his pet. "But if you die, they will die too. I don't want to see my kind die here."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head away and never looked at Chu Li again.

In fact, this is only part of the reason. The rest of his true feelings were not spoken out because he was too shy.

It was because it had seen Chu Li risking her life to save her loved ones and her contracted pet. The most vivid memory was that she was already covered in wounds, yet she still persisted in saving people.

Just like now.

After exerting her energy, Chu Li's face was bloodless and pale to a frightening degree. The tan suit she wore was stained with blood and tattered from the long journey of fleeing famine, revealing wounds.

The white-haired monster was extremely surprised. All humans in the world were extremely greedy, even afraid of death. It was rare to find someone like Chu Li who only pursued a small goal and worked tirelessly for it.

Her heart is sincere, like the hottest fire in the vast snow, shining and dazzling, impossible to ignore.

"You said you don't want to see the spirit pets die, then why did you freeze them!" Chu Li had no idea what the white-haired monster was thinking, so he asked directly.

Hearing this, the white-haired monster was silent for a while, which was unusual.

Seeing the monster speechless, Chu Li snorted softly: "I think you should stop making excuses. You wanted to kill us in the first place, but luckily I was lucky enough to escape danger!"

The white-haired monster looked at her for a long moment before he said, "It's because of that man."

You Chengze?

"He disturbed my sleep, and he was carrying a spirit pet in his arms. At first glance, I thought he was a hunter, so I instinctively attacked him." The white-haired monster paused. "But I didn't expect that the spirit pets would actually risk their lives to save him. Only later did I realize that I had caught the wrong person."
