Chapter 424 They are not coming

When Su Shixia asked about this, Sang Yi pursed her lips tightly, lowered her head and refused to say anything.

Seeing that she refused to communicate and that her situation could not be delayed any longer, Su Shixia turned to look at Feng Qiyu who was standing beside her.

"Brother, are we not far from the place you mentioned where we can stop and rest?"

Su Shixia said, "Let's hurry up and go over there and set up the tent. I need a clean and warm environment right now. Let's quickly check Sang Yi's body and treat her injuries."

"it is good!"

Feng Qiyu nodded and pointed his finger forward.

"Then let's keep going forward and go around this iceberg. Over there..."

"You can't go there!"

Sang Yi suddenly interrupted Feng Qiyu with a sharp voice.

This sudden sound made everyone present focus their attention on her.

Originally, only Feng Qiyu and Su Shixia were standing in front of Sang Yi.

But because of her sudden outburst, Lian Qiao and Fu Hu were afraid that Sang Yi might suddenly attack and hurt Su Shixia and Feng Qiyu, so they rushed forward immediately and protected them on the left and right.

"Miss, what happened just now?"

While Lian Qiao asked Su Shixia in a low voice, his eyes glanced at Sang Yi warily.

"Hasn't the Second Young Master already made everything clear to this girl?"

"You've come here with such good intentions to heal her, why is she still..."

"That's not her problem."

Su Shixia raised her hand to interrupt Lian Qiao, then leaned over and looked directly into Sang Yi's eyes and asked, "Sang Yi, why did you say that the place behind the iceberg is not accessible?"

"You may not have known my second brother before, but he has just told you a lot about your brother. You should be able to tell from his words that my second brother is a native of Northern Xinjiang and has lived in Northern Xinjiang for a long time."

"People in the northern border make a living by fishing from the glaciers. My second brother is naturally familiar with this glacier zone. He said there is a place to rest behind the iceberg. He must have been there before to confirm that it is safe."

Su Shixia's voice was neither high nor low, neither fast nor slow, and had a charm that soothed people and made people unconsciously let down their guard.

"You just said that we can't go there. It's not that I don't want to believe you, but since you came to such a conclusion, you should at least tell us the reason, right?"

"Can you tell me why you feel you can't go there?"

Sang Yi lowered his head and still refused to say a word.

But Su Shixia was keenly aware that her hands, which had already turned purple from the cold, were now clenched into fists. Because she was using too much force, her nails dug into her palms and even blood was flowing out.

Su Shixia frowned, pulled her hand, and forcibly pried open her tightly clenched fingers.

"Why are you so..."

She sighed, took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wrapped it around the wound on her hand.

"I'm already frostbitten, and you scratched the wound. It's easy to get infected. Do you really want to die?"

Su Shixia said helplessly: "I'm just asking you a question. If you really don't want to answer..."

"It's not safe there now." "What?"

Sang Yi suddenly whispered something, but her voice was too soft, and she lowered her head, so Su Shixia didn't see her speak clearly, and only vaguely heard what she seemed to say.

Su Shixia was even wondering if she had heard it wrong, when she saw Sang Yi suddenly raise his head, look at her with red eyes, and speak in a trembling hoarse voice.

"You can't go there now! You absolutely can't go there! You'll probably die if you go there!"

"That place was indeed a safe zone in the past. My father, my brother, and my tribesmen also thought so at the time. That's why they camped and slept there at night."

"But later... they all died! That so-called safe land 'ate' them! Not even their bones were left!"

Sang Yi's words really shocked everyone.

After all, this was Su Shixia's first time in Northern Xinjiang. She didn't know much about the situation in Northern Xinjiang, and she didn't know whether this situation had happened before.

She subconsciously turned to look at Feng Qiyu, wanting him to give her an answer.

Feng Qiyu frowned and shook his head.

“I’ve been in situations before where the safe zone became less safe with loose ice.”

Feng Qiyu said: "But the people in our tribe are always very vigilant when they are active in the glacier zone. Even when we rest at night, we will leave a few people to stay awake and keep an eye on the changes in the ice beneath our feet."

"The ice layer on this glacier belt is very thick. Even if it does crack unexpectedly, it is impossible for it to crack so big that everyone would die."

"If the night watchman finds something wrong, he will immediately warn others. This period of time is enough for them to leave the loose and cracked ice and escape to a safe place."

Feng Qiyu concluded: "To put it simply, even if an accident really happens, under normal circumstances, the most you will lose is some property, and there shouldn't be any danger to life."

"But my father and my brother are dead!"

After hearing what Feng Qiyu said, Sang Yi felt that Feng Qiyu refused to believe her. She became anxious and angry. Not only did her eyes become more and more wet and red, but even her voice began to tremble with sobs.

"There were people on night watch at the time, but only one person survived."

"When he ran back to our tribe and reported that all the fishermen had been swallowed by the glacier, no one in our tribe believed him. Everyone thought he was crazy."

"But...but my father and my brother disappeared after that day and have never appeared since then!"

"Didn't you just ask me why I came to this glacier alone?"

Sang Yi raised his hand and wiped his eyes vigorously, and said in a hoarse voice: "I also refuse to give up. I came here to find my father and brother!"

"The night watchman who escaped told me that my father and brother camped here at night."

Sang Yi's gaze swept across Feng Qiyu.

"I've been here more than once. I want to find my father and brother."

"They say that if they are alive, you should find the bodies. If they are dead, you should find their bodies. I can't find their bodies. Then... as long as I can find some traces that they really rested here, even if I can find a small piece of something left on them, that would be great!"

"I tried really hard to look for it! I couldn't find it on the ice, so I chiseled open the glacier, took off my clothes and dived into the glacier water to look for it myself."

"But...but I just can't find it! I can't find anything!"

"I would rather the night watchman lied to me. I also want to feel like you, that safety cannot devour people's lives. But my father and brother, they just can't come back!" (End of this chapter)
