To my frozen hometown

Chapter 19 People Are Bad at Change

The train was slowly coming to a stop, and when the speed of the carriage began to drop significantly, everyone felt it.

But no one had time to think, the chirping of giant birds, the shouting of humans, and the roaring of wild beasts made everything seem extremely noisy and chaotic for a while.

It is not known whether the blood splashed on the car window was left by people or beasts.

"Hold the windows, hold the windows!" Watson yelled.

There was only one thought left in the soldiers' minds at this time, and that was to shoot, to shoot with all their strength, in order to gain a chance of survival.

They use shouts to suppress the fear in their hearts, and use gunfire to vent their madness.

The wild beasts clung to the brackets under the track, hooked the steel gap with their sharp claws, and their powerful brute force allowed them to crawl upwards without hindrance.

While the birds were attracting human firepower, they were gradually approaching the train.

There is no doubt that in this wilderness at the foot of the mountain, human beings seem to have reached a desperate situation.

Liu Yuan knew what would happen if this continued, so she left the car window and did not shoot again.Instead, he passed through the chaotic crowd and walked towards the front compartment of the car.

In the front compartment of the car, some viscous substances remained in the closed incinerator.

This is the residue left after the spices that lure beasts are burned. They also have the ability to attract beasts, but the speed of scent transmission is obviously not as fast as burning.

Without thinking too much, Liu Yuan grabbed a handful of such residue with his hands and smeared it on his body.

This gave her already dark skin a light shine.

It is certain that in the eyes of the beast, she is obviously the most delicious delicacy.

After spreading the residue evenly, Liu Yuan left the front compartment and returned to the No. [-] compartment.

At this time, the place has already fallen into an even crazier fight.

Liu Yuan casually picked up a straight knife beside a soldier and said.

"Do you need this? If not, I'll take it."

The soldier didn't answer her, but still roared and shot at a giant tiger climbing up.

"Okay, thank you." Liu Yuanquan pretended that he agreed, and directly pinned the straight knife to his waist.

Later, she took three more knives from the side of the three people.

Right now, her waist is already full of blades, three on the left and three on the left, and her tattered short knife is pinned in the middle.

Under the impact of the birds, the train finally stopped.

The bones of the birds got stuck between the wheels of the train, so that the train could only stay motionless on the tracks in mid-air.

"Cab, why did you stop! Drive me quickly!"

Shooting and killing an approaching bird, Watson yelled into the communicator.

"Yes, something stuck to the wheel and the car won't move."

A terrified answer came from the communicator.

"Damn! Solve the problem for me right away, or all of us will die here!" Watson cursed, raising his rifle and continuing to shoot at the herd.

"Yes Yes!"

The cab began to check for malfunctions.

At this time, Liu Yuan was already standing in the crowd, and pushed open the door of the No. [-] carriage.

"Huh!" The biting cold snapped into the car.

Watson glanced over for the first time, and what he saw was Liu Yuanzheng standing by the car door with his clothes turned upside down.

"Liuhara! What are you going to do!"

In desperation, Watson lost his usual composure and etiquette, and directly called out Liuyuan's name.

Liu Yuan glanced sideways at him, blinked calmly, and said lightly.

"Go and complete your commission."

She's going to change something.

Although she hadn't been able to change before, she still held her own blade subconsciously.

Still subconsciously stood up.

Still subconsciously made the choice he had made.

Yes, like I said, she was a hero.

Watson stared at those calm eyes without a trace of waves, and involuntarily froze for a moment.

Vaguely, he seemed to understand that there was never any peace in those eyes, but a dead silence.

But right now, there seems to be a gleam of light in those dead eyes.

Human beings still haven't changed, they still can't learn to give up struggling.

In the bitter cold wind, Liu Yuan took off his overcoat, revealing his body as fit as a female leopard.

She stretched her neck, put her hands on the handle of the knife at her waist, and jumped out of the carriage expressionlessly.

Watson was still standing there with the expression of disbelief Yanagihara was used to.

The next moment, both humans and beasts saw the figure with the blade hanging from the waist, falling from mid-air.

At this time, the incinerator on the train has been extinguished and the chimney has been closed.

The smell of animal-luting spices could not escape from the closed compartment, so Liu Yuan's body naturally became the only smell point.

Almost instantly, the eyes of all the beasts were attracted by Liu Yuan.

An ape clinging to the steel support noticed the falling Liuyuan. It neighed, its eyes were red, and without any hesitation, it rushed towards Liuyuan and bit it.

Its body is more than two meters high, a pair of huge palms can tear a grown man in half, and its sharp teeth are stained with yellow-green filth.It can be believed that if he was bitten by it, even if he did not die directly, he would not be able to return to the greenhouse alive.

But Liu Yuan just looked at it indifferently, and then took advantage of the situation and pulled out the two straight knives from his waist.

"brush!"

It should be an extremely dazzling knife light, accompanied by Liu Yuan falling straight onto the snow.

In mid-air, the ape's body was divided into two halves, the internal organs were shaken out, and the blood fell like raindrops.

It wasn't until the blood raindrops fell on the snow that Liu Yuan's body stood up unsteadily.

The height of 15 meters is enough to break the legs of ordinary people.

But she just wiped the blood on her face, then faced the herd of beasts with a melancholy expression, silently raised the blade in her hand, and spoke slowly.

"So, it's working time."

The blade reflected the light of the sky, and also the black eyes of the Wanderer.

Well, Liu Yuan still hasn't learned to give up struggling.

Even after she understood that the world was hopeless.

The herd of beasts paused, because in their eyes, Liu Yuan was simply two extremes.

On the one hand, there is enough temptation to drive them crazy.

On the one hand, it is dangerous enough to make them retreat.

They could feel that in Liuyuan's thin and small body, there seemed to be a kind of madness that made them tremble with fear.

But the smell of the lure spice made it hard for them to think that much.

"Roar!"

Countless roars were heard, and the herd of beasts that were still besieging the train suddenly changed direction, attacking Liu Yuan without any scruples.

Looking at the rushing beast, Liu Yuan took a deep breath, lowered the blade in his hand, and said in a deep voice to the communicator strapped to his wrist.

"Wadson, do you remember what I said, this is disaster. So, what are you still hesitating about?"

Yanagihara's voice woke up Watson who was still in a trance in the carriage.

He stared blankly at the figure under the train that was surrounded by beasts.

He understood that the other party was creating a chance to survive for everyone else.

He also understands that the price the other party has to pay for this is probably life.

He finally knew why he felt that the other person was different, because he seemed to see some great shadows in that person.

And humanity has not witnessed greatness for too long.

It is a spirit that can illuminate an era, so even if it is just a shadow, it is enough for people to see a glimmer of light in despair.

"Everyone!!" Watson shouted with red eyes, exhausted all his strength, raised the communicator in his hand.

"Fire!!"

They live on, in the name of humanity, in the name of the victims, in the name of what remains of civilization.

They want to survive, even if they are extremely miserable.

They want to live because they haven't forgotten the past under the ice and snow.

Because anthropology doesn't teach any lessons.

Because there is always someone who will light up the next dawn in his own way.

"Ah!!!" The soldiers who came back to their senses opened fire.The movement of the herd made them understand that the jumping figure was buying time for them.

Moreover, she probably carried beast lure spices on her body.

The speed at which the beasts ate was very fast. If the spices for luring the beasts were poured down directly, it would probably be eaten by the beasts in less than half a minute.

And that person was obviously using his life to deal with the beasts, trying to buy them more time.

No one knows how long it can be fought for, it may be 1 minute or 2 minutes.

In short, she should have no chance of surviving.

"Bastard! You bastard!!" The soldier who distributed the equipment to Liu Yuan was lying by the window, pulling the trigger with red eyes.

He watched Liu Yuan try his best to dodge among the herd of beasts, but he was still left with wounds. He watched Liu Yuan being gradually submerged by the herd of beasts, but he could only yell helplessly.

"Don't forget to give yourself a knife, bastard!!!"

Even if he understood, Liu Yuan would probably fight the beast to the last moment of his life.

Even if he understood that this was Liu Yuan's own choice.

But he still couldn't help wanting to scold, couldn't he?

Obviously, I have already told her, and this will relieve her a little bit sooner.

"Cab!!" In the No. [-] compartment, Watson yelled while holding the communicator.

"Start the fucking train for me!! NOW! NOW!"

He couldn't let Liu Yuan's sacrifice be in vain, he wanted to live with the rest.He knew that now was the only chance for the train to leave, because the beast's attention had already shifted to Liu Yuan.

"Yes, yes!" The driver panicked and pushed down the power lever, pulling the power of the train to the maximum.

There are usually only two endings in doing so, one is to completely scrap the train, and the other is to let everyone escape.

"Z!"

Amidst the rubbing sound of rails and wheels, the train finally restarted.

On the railroad track, the snowfield train was heading into the distance.

Under the railroad tracks, Liu Yuan was in the herd of beasts. The wounds on her body were wriggling, and black and red silk threads were pulled out from the flesh and blood, stitching her wounds together.

"Now."

She looked at the beasts gathered around her and grinned.

"Let's start the second round."
