167: Snow
I quickly withdrew my hand, extremely embarrassed, "You...... Why did you finish eating so quickly, your body has just recovered, you should eat more. ”
Xiong Xiaoyun lowered her head shyly, "I...... I'm full and want to come and help you. ”
"You're still very weak, so don't worry about these things. ”
I'm most afraid of the sudden silence of the air, it's really embarrassing.
Xiong Xiaoyun also realized that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and stammered, "That...... Then I'll go out first, and when I need help, you can say. ”
"Hmm. ”
Xiong Xiaoyun finally went out, and I couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
I think my attitude is obvious enough, I hope Xiong Xiaoyun can understand what I mean.
After breakfast, everyone packed their bags and started to set off again.
Because there are footprints, we are not afraid of losing them, and we follow the footprints all the way.
It's just that after walking for less than two hours, the weather suddenly changed. The blue sky, which was originally clear, suddenly became cloudy, and the cold wind was raging, and the eyes of the people who blew it were almost unable to open.
"The weather on the snowy mountains is like this, often one moment the sky is clear, and the next moment it is snowstorming. Sometimes in the same place, there is no snow here, but it snows somewhere. ”
"We have to find a cave as soon as possible to avoid it, if the snow falls on the snowy mountains, it is very scary, and sometimes it can bury people alive. If the wind blows, the snow will turn into knives, and many animals will be cut alive by the snow because they can't avoid it in time. ”
I looked around and it was white, and it was hard to find a cave buried in snow in such an environment.
I can only feel it based on my experience, and most of the places with strong bulges are caves.
"Wait for me, I'll look around. "I put things on the ground, so that I can walk faster and find them easily.
"Be careful. Xiong Xiaoyun reminded me.
I said "um" and turned to walk forward.
We were also lucky, and after walking a short distance, I found a small cave, which was enough for a few of us.
I waved a strip of red cloth and waved at them, because it wasn't very far away and they could see it very clearly.
Then I squatted down to clear the snow from the entrance of the cave and tried to find it as soon as possible.
The snow was so thick that it was like a wall.
I only pulled out a very small opening with a lot of effort, and after Abin and they came over, they helped me dig it out together.
It is enough to dig out a hole that can be drilled by one person, and it should not be too large, otherwise it will easily cause collapse.
Before the hole was dug out, the weather suddenly changed, the clouds were getting heavier and heavier, the wind was getting stronger and stronger, and a lot of snow was rolled up, which caused us a lot of trouble.
I asked Xiong Xiaoyun to pull out the software, and swept thousands of troops down, and opened a big hole.
Everyone went in one after another, and I was the last one to enter, and the snow had already begun to fall.
The snow came so violently, like a storm.
We plugged the hole with a backpack to prevent the snow from drifting in.
Ah Bin lit the pine oil lamp, illuminating the dark cave with a faint light.
The cave is indeed not big, you can see through it at a glance, and it belongs to a shallow cave. But it's okay to dodge for a while.
Everyone has palpitations.
No wonder they all say that March Lake is dangerous, and this snow-capped mountain alone is a big difficulty.
I don't know how many people haven't entered March Lake yet, and they were stumped by this snow-capped mountain first.
There is no pattern to the snow falling on the snowy mountains, sometimes it stops in a few minutes, sometimes for hours, and sometimes it rains for days. Of course, it's rare to get a few days, and in general, 90 percent of the creatures die in that kind of weather. It's not starvation and freezing to death, because they have lived here for a long time and have long adapted to the living environment here. Rather, trapped in the snow, it is difficult to walk, and sometimes the food is right in front of you, but it just can't reach it.
It was a death of despair.
Let's hope our luck won't be so bad.
Dozens of minutes passed, and I moved the package a little away to see what was going on outside, and the snow had already accumulated a thick layer at the entrance of the cave.
I poked my finger and could see what was going on outside.
The goose feathers and heavy snow have no intention of decreasing at all.
The others also came to watch, and at this look, Ka Kemu and the fourth child suddenly changed their faces, "It's not good, it looks like we've encountered a snow explosion." ”
"Snowbursts are rare snowstorms that can cause landslides, avalanches and other disasters. Kakmu added.
I didn't expect us to encounter such bad weather when we first came. Although the cave is small, there are no high-altitude mountains around it, so even if there is an avalanche or snowburst, it is very unlikely that it will be affected here.
And Chu Yunfei, who was traveling faster than us, was not so lucky. They can only find a place to rest in the middle of the mountain, and if an avalanche occurs, it will inevitably bury them all.
We would like to thank Xiong Xiaoyun for being sick, if she hadn't been sick, we would have entered the mountain now.
In more than two hours, our cave entrance was tightly blocked, and we had to constantly clear the snow from the cave entrance. We came in turns, but we weren't very tired, but we couldn't rest together. During the day, it was fine, but at night, not only did you have to keep a vigil, but someone had to clear the snow from the entrance to the cave.
When the weather changes, many animals will also look for shelter, and it is difficult to guarantee that no animals will break in.
In the evening, I divided the people into two groups, I, Abin and Xiong Xiaoyun first guarded the first half of the night, and in the second half of the night, I guarded with Kakemu and Lao Si.
They were afraid that I would not be able to take it well, so I said it was fine.
Once, I didn't close my eyes for ten days and ten nights.
The day or two is nothing to me.
After dinner, Kakmu and the fourth child went to rest first, and I cleared the snow from the entrance of the cave and returned to the fire.
We're halfway through the oil we brought with us, which is dangerous.
In this kind of ice and snow, there is no fire source, which is equivalent to no water in the desert.
But there is no other way, if we don't burn the oil, we may all freeze to death after this night.
Xiong Xiaoyun said worriedly, "It's only the first day that I have encountered so many things, and I don't know what will happen in the future. ”
I comforted her, "It's not your fault, no one thought that the environment in the snowy mountains would be so bad." Besides, no matter how much you prepare, it's useless if we can't bring it. I believe that there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, so don't worry too much. ”
Xiong Xiaoyun nodded, and suddenly asked me, "Do you want Ji Muqing?"
It was so sudden, and all of a sudden, my mind went blank. I subconsciously said, "Of course, I'm sure she thinks of me too." I haven't been in touch with her for a few days, and I don't know how she's doing. ”
"She must miss you too. After Xiong Xiaoyun finished speaking, he got up and walked to the entrance of the cave, picked up the soft sword, and plucked the snow at the entrance of the cave.
Abin looked at me, shook his head and sighed.
Even Abin can see Xiong Xiaoyun's thoughts, and I am really speechless. The snow was over, but Xiong Xiaoyun sat on Ah Bin's side, as if he deliberately kept his distance from me.
Abin looked very uncomfortable, he had never been in close contact with a woman, so he could only use the excuse of cleaning the hole and getting up to leave. In this way, Xiong Xiaoyun and I are left with their own hearts.
"Are you hungry?" I didn't have anything to say.
Because I ate early in the afternoon, it has been several hours now, and I will definitely feel hungry.
Xiong Xiaoyun shook his head, "Let's save some money, our supplies are not very sufficient." ”
In fact, the supplies are completely sufficient, and when the snow stops, there will definitely be a lot of animal carcasses that can be used.
But I know that when Xiong Xiaoyun said that, he was actually not hungry.
There was relative silence for a while, and the atmosphere fell into embarrassment again.
"Tell me about your past. Xiong Xiaoyun said suddenly.
Before......
This scene really reminds me of a lot of things from the past.
The extreme natural environment and harsh living conditions made the ten brothers more aware of the friendship between each other.
Those days are unforgettable, engraved in my heart.
I started from our acquaintance, and there are too many stories in the past ten years. Each one can be said to last three days and three nights.
"That's what it was like when we first met. I said.
Xiong Xiaoyun couldn't help but exclaim, "I can't imagine that the first meeting of the ten of you has left so many unforgettable moments, even if I haven't experienced it myself, I can feel the kind of friendship between you." ”
I smiled and reminded her, "It's one o'clock, it's time for you to go rest." ”
"Ah, it's all a little, so fast. Xiong Xiaoyun looked at his watch, and sure enough, it was already one o'clock, and it was time to change shifts.
She looked at me reluctantly, "When I have time in the future, tell more of your story." ”
I nodded, "Okay." ”
Abin and Xiong Xiaoyun changed shifts with Kakemu, and in the second half of the night, it was a few of us who kept vigil.
Kakemu considered that I would have to stay alone for a night, and he was afraid that my body would not be able to bear it, so he asked me to sit in front of the fire and do nothing, and he and the fourth child went to clear the snow at the entrance of the cave.
"Master Xiao Zhao, I don't think there should be any danger, you just go to sleep, it's enough for me and the fourth child here. ”
I said, "Don't be deceived by the tranquility in front of you, danger will always come when you are unprepared." You don't have to worry about me, if I can't bear it, I don't need you to remind me, I'll go and rest. ”
Ka Kemu made eye contact with the fourth child, and when he saw that he couldn't move me, he could only give up.
Ka Kemu looked at me in admiration, "Master Xiao Zhao, you are really the most powerful person I have ever met, your maturity and stability are unchanging, and you are not at all like what you should have at your age." ”
I smiled and said with emotion, "When a person has experienced a lot of things, he will naturally mature, which has nothing to do with age, but with experience." ”
"I just heard you tell Miss Xiong about your team, Shi Waer has always admired you, you...... Can you tell me about it too? When I have the opportunity later, I can tell Shi Waer about it. ”
