Chapter 431: A Man's Responsibility
Sister Ming nodded, looked at everyone and said, "I agree with this plan, and it can only be like this for now, then I will come first." With that, she turned around and brought the large backpack she was leaning on to her side, and by the faint light reflected from the snow outside the cave, she opened the backpack and pulled out packets of food from it.
The largest quantities were chocolate and preserved meat, about five or six pieces of chocolate, and the preserved meat was almost a kilogram, as well as a small amount of baguette.
"Wow~ Sister Ming, you are so powerful, how can you still have so much food?" He Ying exclaimed in surprise, and her eyes lit up when she looked at the small pile of food.
"Yes, Sister Ming, we all have this unpalatable bread left. ”
"Fortunately, Sister Ming, with these chocolates and dried meat, we can support it for a while longer......"
"Sister Ming's mighty ......"
Everyone applauded, and the atmosphere was much warmer all of a sudden, and it was no longer so lifeless.
Then, the rest of the people also took out some food from their backpacks and piled them up in the open space between them.
After everyone took out the food, Sister Ming leaned over and counted it, and then sighed: "Hey~ The food is still not much! According to the daily intake of 1900 calories per person, at room temperature, these foods are actually enough for us to support three to four days, and even if the food is halved every day, we can still support more than a week."
However, there is a very serious problem. The temperature here is so low that we have to consume more energy every day to be able to maintain human consumption, otherwise, we risk freezing to death......
So, with this food, we will last for two days at most!"
In fact, there are some things she didn't say explicitly, but these people are also frequent explorers, and of course they understand what the hidden meaning of her words is.
Captain Stone nodded, "Sister Ming is right, so our biggest problem now is actually to keep out the cold...... We need to at least build a fire and find a way to boil some hot water.
We haven't rested for a long time, and if we can make a fire, we can get a good night's sleep. ”
"Well, the captain is right. It's just that the wind and snow outside are too big, and it's too difficult to collect branches or something!" said the little man.
"In this way, Sister Ming and He Ying will stay in the camp, and the three of us will be left together, and while we still have some physical strength, we will go out and collect as many high-oil branches as possible. Captain Stone said.
"Good!" said the big man, in a deep voice, "I remember that there was a pine forest not far from that direction, and I thought that we should be able to find the firewood we needed there." ”
"Then remember to bring a gun, if you can hit some prey, that's even better. Sister Ming proposed.
Soon several people reached an agreement, and Sister Ming and He Ying gathered the food and stuffed it into their backpacks, leaning on each other to keep warm.
Captain Stone and the other three took their backpacks and their own shotguns, and prepared to go out.
"Wait a minute~" He Ying suddenly shouted, "Captain, you should each bring two pieces of bread, just in case you ......"
"Okay......" After pondering for a few seconds, Captain Stone nodded in agreement, and the others didn't say anything, but the expressions on their faces became more solemn.
They all apparently understood what it meant, just in case...... Hehe, this is just in case they can't come back, bringing two pieces of bread can also let them support them for a while longer!
Indeed, in this kind of ghost weather, except for the demon Jinyang, no one dares to say that he will be fine.
Although the three of Captain Stone just went out to find some branches to burn the fire, this is also very dangerous, if they get lost in the wind and snow, it will be nine deaths.
But they had no choice but to risk going out and finding a branch to make a fire, or they were waiting to freeze to death...... The last option is obviously not a good choice.
In silence, the three men each took two pieces of bread and stuffed them into their backpacks, glanced at the two women, then turned around and walked into the snowstorm.
One step, two steps, three steps...... It left deep footprints on the snow, and then, a gust of wind howled by, driving a large area of snow, slowly covering all the footprints.
"You must come back early, we will wait for you!"
"Safety first, if you can't find suitable firewood, then come back early, and we'll think of other ways when the time comes......"
"Try not to go too far, it's too windy and snowy outside, and it's easy to get lost......"
The voices of the two women came from a distance in the direction of the cave, piercing through the thick wind and snow, and reaching the ears of the men.
The hearts of the three men were heavier, and their steps were deeper, and they had a strong mission, not a pile of branches that could be fired, but the responsibility to protect the women in the team...... It's heavy, even if it's windy and snowy, it can't be stopped.
The most comfortable thing in the mountains and forests now is Jinyang, and compared to him, these hardships are simply one in the sky and one on the ground.
Look at the time, it's almost noon at this time, the roast chicken has been roasted golden yellow, and the skin is even slightly burnt, but the rich fragrance can't even stop the wind and snow.
"Goodong~"
I don't know who swallowed the saliva, and then it was like opening Pandora's box, the sound of swallowing saliva, and the roar from the stomach, one after another, actually made up a unique symphony.
"A group of foodies, there is only one roast chicken now, if I give it to you to eat, what else can I eat?" Jin Yang scolded a few words, and then tore off a huge chicken leg, stuffed it into his mouth, and took a hard bite, the juice splashed.
The dripping oil of the chicken thighs stained his mouth bright, and the aroma made the animals whine.
After a while, seeing that the chicken legs had turned into chicken bones, the two foodies, Overlord and Marshmallow, finally couldn't help it, "Woo~" roared quietly, then turned around and ran out, and after a while, even the shadow was gone.
"These two foodies...... It's too ......" looked at the direction in which they disappeared with his mouth wide open, Jin Yang scolded a few words speechlessly, he knew that these two foodies must be greedy and couldn't see it, and went out hunting, but they had to be their own free cooks, which made people depressed.
"It's still the black boy you are the most obedient, come, obediently, baba will give you chicken ass to eat......"
Only the poor gray wolves, swallowing saliva, looked miserably at the one person and four dogs in front of them to show affection, and ate a mouthful full of oil around the roast chicken.
I don't know how long it took, Jinyang roast chicken was also eaten, and even roasted a few pieces of mutton and ate it with the dogs and gray wolves.
"Well, McPie~ If you two don't come back, what should I do with my mount and thugs later?"
