Ding Boshang began to drink heavily, possibly starting from a quarrel with his colleagues. He often got so drunk that he would sleep on the ground until dawn.
Drowning his sorrows only deepened his despair! His self-destructive behavior increasingly alienated his coworkers. Moreover, Li Yishan was wary of him causing trouble; whenever there was something important in the group, they generally kept him in the dark.
Xin Li received a call from the higher-ups, stating that a mining boss wanted to conduct an on-site inspection to search for mineral resources in the glacier. Although this matter was handled secretly, Ding Boshang still found out about it.
He tried to prevent the mining boss and his team from entering the Patrol Station to survey the geological conditions, claiming that the situation there was precarious and fearing that something might go wrong.
The Mining Team and the Meteorological Bureau had always been linked by mutual interests; many resources of the Meteorological Bureau depended on the Mining Team. The meteorological Patrol Station needed to relay accurate information to them, creating a mutually dependent and closely intertwined relationship between the mining department and the Meteorological Bureau.
His colleagues completely dismissed his warnings. They covered up the truth and provided false information, claiming that everything at the Patrol Station was normal.
The Mining Team sent five personnel who were expected to arrive at the Patrol Station the next day. They traveled by helicopter, which would drop them off at a wide, flat observation platform before they would walk for half an hour along a straight path through Crow's Mouth to reach the patrol group's barracks.
Ding Boshang thought carefully and realized something was wrong! Their route had to pass through Blood Glacier, which posed a significant danger. With this thought in mind, he argued with his colleagues over a satellite phone in camp, leading to another internal conflict.
In the end, it was Li Yishan who brandished a gun and forced him back...
As the newcomers approached, Ding Boshang felt anxious. In desperation, he decided to set out alone to meet them, taking along an assault rifle.
After dropping off the mining personnel, the helicopter took off. The group moved slowly, each one pampered and overweight. Walking on the rugged mountain path was indeed challenging.
This place was far from the bustling city; it seemed desolate but had very fresh air. Being here brought a pleasant sensation throughout one's body. Thus, it attracted many mountaineering enthusiasts seeking fresh air away from pollution.
After resting by some rocks, a man and woman sat close together for a moment of intimacy. When they got up again, the man was suddenly bitten on the neck by a strange bug. The sharp pain made him instinctively swat at it.
The bug died; it was an unidentifiable strange insect. They exchanged disgusted glances before tossing it away and starting their climbing competition...
However, halfway up the mountain, disaster struck for the man. The spot where he had been bitten suddenly developed numerous transparent blisters. The itching was unbearable, as if something inside them was wriggling. Just as he reached out to scratch, he lost his balance; his harness slipped off, and he plummeted down like a meteor with a loud thud at the bottom of the cliff.
The woman gasped in shock, her eyes wide open as she stared in disbelief at her lover's mangled body.
As she slid down slowly in her deep sorrow, wanting to catch a glimpse of her beloved, a dark bird suddenly swooped down from above.
"Get away!" Her body spun like a top against the cliff wall. If it weren't for the rope securely tied around her waist, she might have plummeted to the bottom like that gentleman.
There was no way to go up; the strange bird continued to circle low, persistently harassing her. Her only choice was to keep sliding down until she reached the spot where they had just started.
Tears streaming down her face, she hurriedly untied the rope around her waist. Before she could even run, the terrifying large bird attacked again, diving down with a whoosh, its outstretched claws aimed directly at her.
Run! She could only run, recklessly and desperately! She ran and ran, barely catching her breath when the large bird caught up, flapping its wings right above her head.
Terrified and with trembling legs, she screamed for help...
The mining boss leading the group heard the cries for help and paused momentarily to listen. The voice seemed to come from the left.
"Someone's calling for help." He scanned the area and instructed everyone to stop. Just then, a girl covered in blood came running from the left.
Crack! Someone in the group tensed up, quickly raising their weapon in preparation for any sudden changes.
A dark bird seemed indifferent to these creatures on the ground. It continued its dive, intent on capturing one of them.
Humans sometimes become overly complacent; just because they have weapons, they believe nothing could pose a threat to them. This flawed judgment often leads to severe consequences.
The person holding the gun could hardly believe they were dealing with such an insignificant bird. Even in his last moments, he found it hard to accept that this bird could possess such force and deadly claws that pierced through his sturdy back in an instant.
The one holding the gun was named Xiongzi, the mining boss's nephew. When Xiongzi was attacked, he shouted in panic and fired his gun wildly, causing others to be paralyzed with fear.
The girl they had rescued had already lost consciousness.
At that moment, Dingbao Mountain appeared. He insisted on leading them through another shortcut. Although this route was as difficult as navigating a narrow passageway, it was much safer by comparison.
The story had made Xiao Qiang very anxious, especially with the old truck breaking down like it was having fits. Either the engine hood would suddenly belch out thick smoke, or a tire would pop with a loud bang. In any case, there were no major issues, just a series of small troubles.
While repairing the truck on Dingbao Mountain, Xiao Qiang got out and let his gaze drift over the desolate wilderness before him. The winding road looked eerily lonely. A gust of cold wind filled with the scent of earth swept in from the barren landscape, chilling his heart and bringing an inexplicable sadness. What was Lin Yu doing in this future world? How was Little Pick-Up faring now? These were concerns that weighed heavily on his mind.
Watching Dingbao Mountain busily working, Xiao Qiang suddenly asked, "Did that girl survive?" Instinctively, he hoped for her survival and eagerly awaited an answer that would align with his current mood, seeking a bit of good fortune.
Dingbao Mountain paused for a moment, squinting at a white bird foraging in the grass in the distance. Slowly retracting his gaze, he glanced at Xiao Qiang with a detached look. His expression darkened abruptly as he spoke apologetically, "She died."
"..." Those words felt ominous and instantly disrupted Xiao Qiang's emotions. They fell into silence, the quiet atmosphere only broken by the sound of Dingbao Mountain tapping on the engine hood. "How did she die?"
"Do you really want to know?" Dingbao Mountain seemed reluctant to discuss the girl.
"What’s wrong? Didn’t you want someone to listen to your stories about this mess?" Xiao Qiang suddenly erupted in anger, startling the honest Dingbao Mountain.
He stood there dumbfounded, hands dirty, staring at Xiao Qiang in shock. "She was attacked by that Mutant Bird and then gave birth to a monster. They..."
"They killed her?" Xiao Qiang exclaimed in righteous fury.
