Chapter 130 Silver Fish, Hot Spring and Ice Gra.s.s

Most people never get the chance to experience the feeling of taking a breath on a 2000-meter-high iceberg.

The air is thin so it is difficult to breathe. The second you breathe out, the warm breath will freeze.

Though it is almost summer, the four seasons are not so distinctive at the North Pole. At least the freezing iceberg doesn’t feel like summer at all.

The sound of running water comes. Lin Luoran stamps her feet and thinks positively that even at the North Pole, ice melts into water in summer. Maybe that’s the difference between summer and winter in the North Pole.

Moss grows on the glaciers in summer so that sheep and deer can survive here. However, on the iceberg, there is not even a trace of a mouse.

Lin Luoran follows the sound of running water.

In summer, air temperature rises and ice melts. Small streams of ice water merge into rivers. Lin Luoran finds a river like this.

It is crystal clear. Round pebbles are lying at the bottom of the river. Sun s.h.i.+nes on the water and the sparkling wave makes the pebbles look even cuter.

Lin Luoran walks down the river. Soft moss which is said to be the favorite food of Arctic deer covers the ground.

Lin is walking quietly along the beautiful river on the iceberg. She would definitely film all of this if she had a camera.

While she is immersed in the view, she sees a silver light flashes pa.s.s her in the river.

What? Fish can live in ice-cold water?

Even her eyes are sharp, Lin doesn’t see the thing clearly. It is so fast!

Lin Luoran is interested. She runs towards it.

The fish is jumping and swimming fast like lightning. Lin Luoran runs at her top speed and she is still far behind. The fish leads her into a valley. Lin stops when she discovers that the temperature here is different from the outside.

She can’t remember how long she has been walking. It seems that she has crossed over the highest iceberg and arrived at another mountain. She is now in a valley where the rivers converge into the lake at the center of the valley. The odd fish should be in the lake.

Lin Luoran feels that the valley is extremely cold. Normally, temperature in the high alt.i.tude should be lower than that in the low alt.i.tude. However, how can the lake be covered by a thick layer of ice when the ice on the top of the iceberg is melting?

At first, Lin Luoran thought that the low temperature is caused by the lingering cold air. As she walks closer to the lake, she realizes that the coldness is actually coming from the lake.

This is weird. Lin Luoran hovers about the lake.

What is so special about this lake?

The layer of ice is thick and it is safe for Lin to walk on. She takes a few steps to the center of the lake and sees a faint stream of smoke. A creature in the size of chopsticks jumps out of the water — it is the fast and odd fis.h.!.+

Lin Luoran is delighted. She forgets about the smoke in the center of the lake and rushes at the fish. Then she discovers that there is no ice on the center of the lake. A surge of warmth comes at her face. The second her feet touch the ice, it breaks. Turns out the ice on the center of the lake is thinner! Also, the water in the center is warm?
