Chapter 151 All hope is lost
Chapter 151: All hope is gone
Everyone worked together and began to search around the valley. The guards and servants of the Chen family even started digging out the snow with their hands, as if they wanted to find Chen Xue through this method.
“Can’t use a knife!”
Some government officials didn't want to dig with their hands because the snow was too cold. As soon as they took out their knives, Xu Tian stopped them.
Xu Tian glared at them, "What if Mr. Chen is hurt?"
They had no choice but to give up using knives and plane with their hands. After only doing so for a while, they couldn't stand it anymore.
The valley seemed very big, but hundreds of people rushed over, and it was still very small. With everyone's concerted efforts, they searched almost the entire valley, but could not find Mr. Chen's family.
“Master Chen!”
Someone couldn't help shouting.
“Buzz buzz!”
"not good!"
When Xu Tian heard this, his expression suddenly changed and he shouted, "Leave quickly!"
Everyone turned pale with fright and ran away. Although they were far away before, they could still feel the terror of the avalanche, so they didn't dare to stay.
Fortunately, they were lucky.
There was no avalanche, just some snow sliding down the slope.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the valley, with some lingering fears.
Some people couldn't help but said, "We have been looking for so long and we can't even see an earthworm. Do we still have to continue?"
People who originally had confidence in Chen Xue began to waver. Although they did not dig three feet into the ground, they searched all around and couldn't find him at all.
“The snow is so thick, Mr. Chen and the others must be still deeper.”
Zhao Guang dug in the snow frantically, not knowing whether he was talking to himself or to others.
"But..." Converse couldn't help but frown, "With such a large area of snow, if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we can't stay here forever. We have already wasted a lot of time. We have to go It’s too late for the Nanman.”
As soon as these words came out, many people immediately echoed them, and many government officials also agreed with Converse's words. After all, they were the first to be punished for delaying time.
There are also prisoners who are not interested in Chen Xue's family and agree with Converse's words. They are still afraid of the avalanche. After all, they almost followed in the Chen family's footsteps.
Although they are unwilling to accept that Chen Xue is a fairy, they have to say that Chen Xue is indeed very powerful and has magical means.
But she also suffered under the power of heaven and earth, not to mention herself.
So, they don’t want to stay here at all, who knows whether the avalanche will happen again.
"As you can see, this avalanche can happen once or a second time. If we continue to stay here, maybe..."
As soon as these words came out, many people's hearts trembled.
Although they were grateful to Chen Xue's family, they still couldn't do it if they were asked to sacrifice their lives.
So, they were a little shaken for a while. What's more, they also searched and couldn't find Chen Xue's family at all.
Perhaps, as others have said, Chen Xue's family might be buried in several meters of snow, and it would be impossible for them to find it.
“Xu Tian!”
Converse looked at Xu Tian, "Now is not the time to be willful. You are the captain and must be responsible for everyone's lives!"
He didn't even look down on Xu Tian at first, but who knew he would actually get on top of him, so Converse was very unconvinced.
He only felt that Xu Tian was just lucky and not qualified to be the captain, so he never called Xu Tian captain.
Now that he had the opportunity to attack Xu Tian, how could he not seize the opportunity, "Is it possible that you want to use your own selfishness to ruin everyone's future and lives?"
"enough!"
Before Xu Tian could speak, Zhao Guang snorted coldly, "If you want to leave, just take your people with you."
“I will not leave until I find Mr. Chen.”
"Then you are a deserter." Converse snorted coldly, "If the court pursues you, can you bear the responsibility?"
"Whether I can afford it or not has nothing to do with you!" Zhao Guang curled his lips, "Anyway, it won't involve you, a coward!"
"you-"
Converse’s eyes widened with anger, and he almost wanted to fight Zhao Guang.
"enough!"
Xu Tian’s eyes were red and his voice was a little hoarse as he said, "If we look for another day, if we can’t find Mr. Chen again, then..."
He sighed, "Just... hurry up!"
After saying these two words, it was as if all the strength in his body had been taken away, and his whole body became relaxed.
With Xu Tian's words, Converse breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to push too hard, otherwise it would be counterproductive.
Zhang Yiquan, who was next to him, was a little relieved when he heard this. He was also worried that if they continued to search, they might really be able to rescue Chen Yuan's family.
Although he felt that it was impossible for anyone to survive such a terrifying avalanche, he was still worried about Chen Xue's magical means.
After all, Chen Xue was flying around on the snow before. Who knows if she flew away at that time...
Although he did watch them being submerged in the snow, the longer he stayed here, the greater the changes.
Everyone went back to the valley to search, but because someone shouted a few words before, the unstable snow on the hillside slid down again, forming a small avalanche.
Although it was a small avalanche, it still frightened everyone.
Therefore, the number of people in the search team following Zhao Guang and others became smaller and smaller.
But Zhao Guang did not give up, and even held a torch to search at night.
After all, if Chen Xue and the others are not found tomorrow, the team will leave.
However, they did not know that there was a small place near their feet at an unknown depth.
Chen Xue is buried there.
“Xiao Xue!”
In space.
After Mr. Chen and others were taken in by Chen Xue, their eyes suddenly burst open and they started shouting crazily.
However, without Chen Xue's help, they would not be able to get out of the space.
“Jade Emperor and gods, please protect my Xiaoxue.”
Mother Chen’s tears were streaming down her face and she knelt on the ground to pray.
Xiaodie next to her also knelt down and even kowtowed repeatedly, "God, I am willing to exchange my life for the girl's life, please God."
It’s just that there are no gods in this world!
Chen Xue’s previous talk about trading with the God of Wealth was just fabrication. In fact, it was just trading with the system.
However, the system only listened to Chen Xue and naturally had no response to the calls of Mr. Chen and his family.
Furthermore, if something happens to Chen Xue, the system will be fine. At most, it will just change the host.
In short, Mr. Chen shouted for a long time, and finally he had to follow Chen's mother and kneel on the ground to pray to the gods.
Since he was a child, he has never knelt except for his parents and the emperor. This time he knelt down to the gods, hoping that they could save his daughter.
However, their prayers received no response.
“Why is this happening…”
Mother Chen was a little lost, "How will I live without Xiaoxue!"
"It's all my fault!" Mr. Chen slapped himself a few times, blaming himself for being useless. If he were useful, he wouldn't have to face the terrifying avalanche with Xiaoxue instead of hiding in a comfortable space.
