As night fell, the harsh rays of the sun transformed into a golden, dazzling disc. In the cloudless expanse, the blue sky appeared to be a bright, pure heavenly lake.
At the moment, Yan Tian was at home with his leg crossed over the other eating melon seeds. An angry curse came from his mouth: "This baldy is really fricking foolish. You didn't go directly to the air fighters and tanks, but you were surprisingly played around by those two one after another. Use the saw in your hands; cut it up! Don't run! Why are you running, you……ugh, you've really lost face for humanity." Yan Tian watched the bald tough guy in the children's animated movie speechlessly.
Yan Tian was unable to make sense of it. The bald fighter could clearly had the opportunity to overtake the two great bears. So why did every time he lifted the electric saw it seemed like it was just for show.
"I can't watch this anymore. I really can't take this. I thought it would be good at first, but it's really quite senseless." Yan Tian said, then picked up the remote control to shut off the television.
As Yan Tian watched the dimming light outside the window, his eyes revealing traces of memories.
It was winter in Alaska. The azure sky, the winding snowy mountains, and the weaving of black and white portrayed a magnificent natural landscape.
Mount McKinley, formerly called as Denali Mountain, stood tall in the state of Alaska in America. It was the highest summit in North America, 6195 meters above sea level. It was conquered early on by the indigenous peoples of North America, the Eskimos; either way, the indian people continued to use this ancient designation. In 1800, the United States twenty-fifth president William McKinley had christened it thus.
The are area of Mount McKinley possessed an erratic high-mountain wind with the flora and wildlife typical of that of the North Pole. For the most part, the entire region was permanently covered in snow. Between the mountains, there was an constant, unbroken fog. The fog was white and pervaded the air so that it would curl around one's fingers, leaving the scenery outside several hundred meters unseeable.
Although Mount McKinley's height wasn't that tall, it was place where the land above the sea level was extremely high, which lead to an extremely thin atmosphere. Once you reached the higher latitudes of the Arctic Circle, the climate became especially freezing. During winter, the coldest it would get was fifty degrees below zero. The topography of the mountain was arduous, becoming hard for mountain climbers to face this all-encompassing screen. For all of these reasons, the success rate for climbing Mount McKinley was barely fifty percent. Already, more than a hundred men had met their fates in the billowing snows of the mountain. In the winter of 1984, a world-famous explorer, Japan's Naomi Uemura, had perished climbing the mountain, becoming Mount McKinley's forty-fourth victim in history.
In the vast whiteness of the snowy land, the color of the sky had begun to darken as early as three o'clock in the afternoon. Without even the passing of an hour, night would come. At that moment, a young man walked unhurriedly . After he walked for several minutes, the young man used his hand to feel the downward blowing of the wind, planning to to look for a wind gap to dig an ice trench to pass the night.
Yet just as he prepared to lie down to sleep, he suddenly felt a sense of danger, causing him to subconsciously quickly hide his body. Raising his head to look, a lightning-like silhouette jumped down from the tree and looked down on the youth.
"Take out all the food that you have or else I'll kill you." The person that came down from the tree was a woman, wearing a black corset. Her age was around seventeen years old and possibly due to an extended period without sustenance, her situation was unsightly. He face seemed to be sickly and malnourished; weak and feeble.
"Hmph, come over here yourself and take it." How could the youth handover his food to this girl? It must be known he didn't have much food. At most it was enough for a single day.
"Heart King, I urge you to hand over your food to me. Don't you know that right now, Yin Yu isn't alive anymore? I can slay you with ease." The young woman looked at the youth man's bulging satchel and menacingly said.
"Hmph, Meng Die, you think you're my opponent now? If you want some food, that's ok. I can give you some, it’s only……"
"I can cooperate with you." The young lady said without a degree of difficulty, directly interrupting the young man speaking.
"You cooperate with me? Cooperate over what?" Upon hearing of cooperating, the young man was puzzled.
"My strength is greater than yours. Moreover, right now Yin Yu isn't at your side, so your situation is quite perilous. We'll cooperate. You give me food, I can protect you." The young woman looked at the youth and continued to speak.
The young woman had not eaten anything for several days. Her body was already so weak she couldn't even stand. Right now, everything was less beneficial than that of a single ration. Needless to say that although her strength in comparison to young man's was greater, the present her that had not eaten anything for long period of time was extremely weak. If she wanted to rely on her strength to rob the youth of his food, it was obviously not realistic. Therefore, the young woman and the young man spoke of conditions.
After the young man listened to the girl's words, he then narrowed his eyes and thought: "But if I give you my food, won't you just kill me? I'll say it again. The food is only enough to hold on for a single day. If I give it to you, we won't be able to survive later.
"You think I'm the type of person to burn the bridge after I cross it? Furthermore, I've already stayed here for five days. I know the surrounding vicinity has wolves that frequent about here. You and I can can go kill them together." The young lady watched the young man and deadpanned.
The young man looked at the remnants of his own food that wouldn't last a day and once again looked at his surroundings. He only saw the vast stretch of whiteness, unable to completely see the end. He looked at the young woman in front of him again and said: "OK, Meng Die. I believe you're not the type of person to repay benevolence with hatred. I shall cooperate with you this once.
"Thank you, Heart King." Seeing that the young lady had achieved her wish in coming out, she spoke emotionally.
"We're only cooperating. Benefitting off each other, that's all. You have no need to thank me. Urgh, take it and eat!" The young man passed over a bloody piece of meat over to the girl.
The young woman didn't inspect the meat for poison or know what type of meat it was, but she directly received it from the young man's hand and then took great bites of it. It must be known, she hadn't eaten anything for many days.
After the young girl finished eating, she wiped her mouth and lifted her head to look at the youth in front of her.
After the young man saw that the girl was finished eating, he then said: "Since I've already given you the food, I want you to cooperate with me, so take out your end." The youth said and fished out a piece of a hard ration, dangling in front of the young woman.
The young woman suddenly revealed a charming smile completely unsuited to her age. Her watery eyes emitted a strong womanly enchantment.
"Four stupid men have already believed they could eat me up, but they were all killed by me instead. Compared to them you're weak, yet you're slightly like them……"
"What do you think I want to do?"
The young woman looked at the ration in the youth's hand and using a matchless enticing sultry tone said: "You too are a man. You and them are the same. You want women. You want to release your feelings……"
In the youth's eyes there were several peculiarities. He went silent for a while, "You also know, you're not the only woman around."
"Not bad" The young woman revealed a wisp of self-proudness from the corner of her mouth, "However, you're quite clear about. Among them, I am the best looking one."
After the young lady finished speaking, she maneuvered to begin to gracefully take off her skintight short-sleeve shirt, gradually from her delicate, supple waist, revealing her fair-skinned, captivating flesh……
The young lady had evidently received specialized training. Each of her movements were extremely seductive. It would be hard for any man to imagine that these were the movements of sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
As a young girl's body was in a stage of development, she was completely exposed before the youth in that moment. Within the young man's eyes, there was finally no longer any tranquility. A flame was set ablaze.
I want to live, and you also want to live. As someone asking for help, I'll use my body in exchange for your assistance." The young woman stood in front of the young man, solemnly asking: "Heart King, do you dare to want me?"
"Hmph, I said I would cooperate with you one time……" The young man said, then pounced towards her like a leopard, taking the young woman's unresisting body onto the ground……
After the howling winds and torrential rains had subsides, two people resumed their serenity.
The young man drew the young lady to him and watched the stars in the sky.
"You said we're able to leave here, right?" The young woman looked towards the starry sky.
"We can, we definitely can, believe in us." The young man looked around in all the surrounding directions of the whiteness of the snowy land and consoled the young woman.
"Can you explain why we have to be murderers? Why can't we live an ordinary life?"
"Because this is the plan of the heavens. We have no choice!"
"In fact, if we could always look at the stars in the sky together like this, it would be pretty good. I like this feeling." The young lady suddenly said excitedly.
"Yeah, it's not that I don't want it to always be like this, but from birth, our lives have already been determined. Within our eyes there can only be unceasing slaughter, massacre, and destruction……"
