Nan Zhou naturally knew how many slip-ups he had just made and turned to look at Jiang Fang. Jiang Fang continued to lean on Nan Zhou’s shoulders, closing his eyes and continuing to recuperate. Li Yinhang naturally heard it too but she didn’t ask anything.
Nan Zhou looked down. He remembered what Jiang Fang had told him in the second instance. He told Nan Zhou that Nan Zhou’s story belonged to himself. Nan Zhou could say it whenever he wanted.
Nan Zhou bit the tip of his tongue and vaguely hesitated. Suddenly, a strange and strong feeling filled his heart. Nan Zhou didn’t look back to check. He just grabbed Jiang Fang and Li Yinhang by his side and used all his meager remaining strength to carry them forward!
Li Yinhang didn’t know the reason but once she lost her balance and staggered forward, she felt a strange wind mixed with a strange smell that blew over the top of her hair. The whistling wind wedged itself into the rock and made a startling, breaking sound that made people feel numb.
Ding.
Li Yinhang’s ears rang from the piercing sound. She turned back in horror and was instantly shocked by the scene before her. It was the woman! The woman with the ice pick! Just now, she had quietly been behind them, raised her ice pick and brought it down! How could this be? How did she approach without Jiang Fang and Nan Zhou noticing?
The moment Li Yinhang’s eyes fell on this person, her heart became even more shocked. The woman’s eyes were dull and her hands were braced on top of the snow-colored black rock as if she was growing from it. Below her waist was clearly empty! She was a moving body with only the upper body!
Nan Zhou also turned back in a hurry. In a flash of light, Nan Zhou recalled the scene of seeing her for the first time. She lay in the sleeping bag and only the upper half of her body stuck out. No wonder.
The soft snow, the fresh snowy breeze that blew into their eyes and the short torso that was less than a meter. These conditions were enough for her to quietly get close without attracting any attention.
He Yinchuan’s group also hadn’t expected the surprise attack. They had even divided some of their attention to the situation on Nan Zhou’s side. Unexpectedly, they were still ambushed by this monster! He Yinchuan cursed and pulled out a dagger stuck in his boot before speeding in the direction of Nan Zhou!
The woman with a half body didn’t move again after the blow failed. She held the ice pickaxe in one hand, braced her hand on the ground and ran away a few meters using a handstand. Her running posture was ridiculous and scary but it was almost like a guidepost in the white snow.
Nan Zhou looked around. For a time, he thought they were surrounded by the mountain climbers. Yet after looking, he found that this monster with the upper body was the only one who had caught up with them. The other side had carried out the strategy of splitting up to search.
Nan Zhou didn’t have much strength and could only shout at Jiang Fang. “Block her mouth!”
Unfortunately, it was already too late. She didn’t scream and call out to her teammates as Nan Zhou imagined. It was because she didn’t have a tongue. She opened her mouth, revealing a black hole. Then she bit the rescue whistle hanging around her neck.
Beep—
The shrill whistle tore through the cold air and transmitted layers of sound to the far distance. For a time, the mountains were silent. Even the wind seemed frightened by this whistle and stopped for a moment.
The umbrella-shaped snow canopy above their heads trembled twice. Some snow fell down on Nan Zhou’s shoulders and neck like frost. She wasn’t able to blow twice before a hand grabbed her hair hard.
The playing cards were light and small. It was impossible to aim and throw them in this thick, snowy land. However, close-up attacks still worked. Jiang Fang held a card in one hand and swiped it horizontally across her throat, cutting her trachea. As a result, not much blood came out.
The moment a bit of the cold, black blood seeped onto Jiang Fang’s gloves, Jiang Fang reacted quickly and withdrew his hand. He had expected that as well. The act of her throat being cut hadn’t deprived the woman of her mobility.

Jiang Fang didn’t let go and grabbed her hand. He pressed the woman down onto the frozen earth, snatched the ice pick from her hand and without mercy, he nailed the tip through the back of her vest.
He nailed her torso to the ground with her own weapon!
He Yinchuan and the others arrived to see this scene and couldn’t help their hearts thudding. However, they didn’t have time to care about how inhuman and simple Jiang Fang’s means were. It was because the woman hadn’t lost her mobility at all.
Her eyes rolled and she propped her hands up on the ground as she struggled on the dirty ice. They could even hear her internal organs rubbing back and forth on the sharp object.
Obviously, the woman had finished her task of informing the others with the whistle. Their location was exposed and they had to leave this place as soon as possible. The trickiest question right now was how to deal with this undead woman. Generally speaking, they should destroy the brain for this type of zombie.
He Yinchuan glanced at Liang Shu. Liang Shu understood and pulled Li Yinhang back to let her avoid the next bloody scene.
He Yinchuan was part of the special forces and had killed people. He just had very little experience with such close-up killing, even if the opposite person was a human turned monster. However, he had no way back for the sake of the people behind him.
He picked up a palm-sized rock handed to him by Zhou Ao and took a deep breath before smashing her head without any delay! The thin, black-red liquid splashed onto the snow. However, she wasn’t dead yet!
Her body squirmed, twisted and flipped like a dying fish. She just couldn’t die. Her face was almost as flat as a photograph and her dead eyes made her look like a flounder. She seemed to feel no pain at all. She just stared at the full moon in the sky and continued to concentrate on freeing herself from the shackle of the ice pick. Her pious but turbid eyes were full of blood and vitreous almost dripped out of her body.
He Yinchuan cursed. “Fuck!”
Zhou Ao’s words were concise. “Cut the hands.”
He Yinchuan was so disgusted that he looked up with slight anger. “How can we have anything that will cut bones in one go! Besides, those things can arrive at any time. Can we work slowly?”
Zhou Ao criticized him. “You can’t be angry. You are the captain.”
“…Yes, I’m not angry. Let’s go and leave her here.”
The ice pickaxe had nailed her body to the ground and they didn’t have anything to replace the ice pick at the moment. If they pulled out the ice pick then she would immediately leave their control. They couldn’t take her with them. Nevertheless, leaving the ice pick to her would bring about endless trouble.
The group was feeling at a loss when Nan Zhou wandered over slowly. He pinched open the woman’s mouth and confirmed that she had no tongue. He sighed with a bit of regret. It was hard to let her drink things willingly and he wasn’t sure if she was human.
…She also had no tongue.
Brother Fang’s Truth Tequila wouldn’t work on the physical level. He had wanted to make her give some information on the moon god.
Nan Zhou failed in his wish and looked at Lu Bifang. “The recorder.”
Lu Bifang’s mind hadn’t returned. “Huh?”
Nan Zhou looked at Jiang Fang. “Brother Fang.”
Jiang Fang understood and took the recorder from Lu Bifang’s left pocket. “Thank you.”
Lu Bifang, “……”
Nan Zhou took the tape recorder. He didn’t bother questioning Lu Bifang, who was turning red. Instead, he asked Lin Zhisong who was standing to the side. “Has it been recording this whole time?”
Lin Zhisong answered, “…Yes.”
“Is it fall proof?”
“…It is protected.”
“Can you erase the content and leave only some of it?”
“…Yes.”
Nan Zhou crouched on the ground and held out the recorder to Lin Zhisong.
Then do it.
Meeting his clear eyes, Lin Zhisong had to take the tape recorder and quickly operate it in accordance with Nan Zhou’s thoughts. Nan Zhou gazed at the woman and followed her eyes to the full moon in the sky. Then he told Jiang Fang, “Brother Fang, do me a favor.”
***
The woman’s whistle summoned the monsters scattered in three directions to the valley in unison.
The bear man was the first to arrive. He looked east and west but couldn’t find the woman. He was searching when the gecko man and hammer man arrived.
They were like a group of snow wolves. After meeting, they looked for the woman in silence. Through the heavy snow, the bear man spotted a high, grave-like mound of snow that looked very unnatural. He rushed to dig at the snow.
Sure enough, he caught a glimpse of the shining tip of the ice pickaxe. However, only the pickaxe was left. The wooden handle was removed.
The bear man quickly found the upper half of the woman. The woman was still gasping for breath. It was just that the bones of her arms were broken. They were at odd angles that were normally impossible.
The bear man was trying to pull the woman out when the hammer man by his side seemed to notice something and raised his head. There was a dark, slender figure standing alone on a rocky outcrop at the top of the depression. The wind lifted his dark hair and made his pale and delicate face look like a snow maiden on the mountain.
Nan Zhou raised his hand and threw down the tape recorder from a high place. There was the cushioning of the snow and combined with its high-strength shock resistance and fall proof function, it was still intact when it hit the ground.
The hammer man stared at the little black box and frowned suspiciously. The next second, a deafening whistle came from the speaker.
Beep—
Beep—
Beep—
The originally shrill whistle became even harsher and stranger due to the repeated playing and increasing volume. The gourd-shaped depression formed an excellent echo belt. The originally loose snow eaves were stimulated by this and started to slide downward like flowing water. It issued a rumbling, low growling sound that was like a warning.
The hammer man took two steps back as he seemed to realize that something was wrong. However, it was too late for him to take action. The collapse of nearly a thousand cubic meters of snow was only a breath away.
The large area of snow poured down like a waterfall, bringing countless weathered rocks mixed in with the snow. It swept away the three men below like a tidal wave! The sound of the avalanche was soon swallowed and absorbed by the snow mountain. Even the whistle recorded on the tape recorder was buried under the deep snow. There was only a faint, thin sound.
Nan Zhou was still looking down but was picked up by the neck in time by Jiang Fang and brought back to the group.
“Go. They wouldn’t be able to chase us for a while. Let’s hurry.”
Nan Zhou was surprised. “Huh?”
The moonlight shone silently on the realm of death like the gaze of a Cyclops. There was no sorrow and no joy.
***
An hour and a half later.
A thin arm suddenly emerged from the thick layer of snow that was like a grave. The palm forcefully grasped at the nearby snow.
