Chapter 519 [Winter is Coming]
Standing on the snow slope and looking into the distance, the wind blows the snow and mist to spread throughout the forest back, like a sea tide of clouds and mist.
Seven people traveled, looking at the huge snow slope that winds hundreds of meters in front of them, and was silent.
Sect Leader Huang said: "I feel that this road is comparable to the G3 wind break on Mount Everest." β
"How are we going down?" asked Huang Lei.
"Go down~" Chen He's brain circuit is simple.
Chen Ergou didn't answer, repeatedly circled around the snow slope a few times, looked at the snow slope environment under the mountain, and said to the camera: "Many people say that it is difficult to go up the mountain, but compared with going up the mountain, it is actually more difficult to go down the mountain." This has been best confirmed when climbing Mount Everest. This is the last section of the trail downhill, and there is a huge forested snow lake at the bottom of the mountain. While the journey is already cool and challenging, there is an even bigger obstacle waiting to be challenged right now. Because it's getting dark, we can't spend the night on the tuyere!"
"When looking down from the mountains, the steep snow slopes can be intimidating. But then again, it also means you can descend the mountain quickly, efficiently, and safely. It's a natural rappelling site and the trees aren't very dense. There are a few snow eaves in the middle, and the drop is not high. We need to play a little bit of sledding as a kid and have a downhill ski ......."
"Downhill skiing, I played it when I was a kid~"
Sect Leader Huang said, "You can slide down with a sled." β
"The sled is too fast to stop the car. Chen Ergou said, "Let's slide straight down, but it takes a little skill." β
He began to explain the downhill technique to the crowd, "You need to try to balance your hands when you are sliding down to prevent yourself from tumbling. Keep your feet up and don't slow down with your feet in the snow puddles. Under that gravitational acceleration, it will make you lose your balance and roll down the hill directly. To be safe, I need to tie a rope with one end to the trunk at the top of the slope and the other end to the buckle on my belt. In case of loss of balance, this rope is the best lifesaver. β
Seeing that everyone was still confused, Chen Ergou said helplessly: "I'll do a demonstration first, maybe I can find the fun of childhood." β
He smiled, tied the sled to the end of the rope first, and slid all the way down.
"Brush Brush Brush ~"
The sleigh was sliding faster and faster, and people broke out in a cold sweat when they saw it, and Yun'er stuck out her tongue and said, "It's too fast!"
"It's too late to regret it now. β
Chen Ergou gave a thumbs up to cheer everyone up, turned to the live broadcast room and said, "It's best to have some music at this time!"
The only drone equipped with sound in the field is naturally a dog, and a war song "victory" suddenly sounded in the wilderness and in the live broadcast room. Everyone was stunned for a moment, and before they had time to enjoy the exciting music that suddenly played in the snowfield, they were interrupted again, "Dogan for another song, what about the song that ranked sixth on the billboard." β
Chen He suddenly became interested, and hummed a few words: "Hall-of-Fame Hall of Fame, I can sing this song, Yun'er, can you sing it?"
Yun'er embarrassed: "...... I don't speak English very well, and you sing too much of a tune, Oba. β
Peng Yuyan: "Shut up, it's long before you fall below the market." β
The sound of music diluted the tension.
Chen Ergou smiled, "OK, I'll go down first, if there is no danger below, I will pull the rope three times, and you will slide down one by one." β
Without saying a word, he ran a few steps forward, and swooped down the slope with a jump. Under the influence of gravity, the buttocks and back slid wildly in the snow, and the hands occasionally adjusted the direction on the snow surface, and slid directly down from it.
In the live broadcast room, the camera followed his figure all the way down rapidly, the snow was lifted and jumped along the way, and the scenery on both sides changed rapidly, which seemed to be a thrilling leap in the woods. It's worrying, but don't hit the tree the next moment.
"666" even blew up the screen-
"2333 butt is smoking~"
"I remember, I used to play when I was a child, my brother would drag us with a shovel to ski fast on the snow, it was so fun!"
"The principle of friction to make a fire is that the buttocks keep rubbing against the snow surface, generating high heat and then igniting the underwear~"
However, the slope is too long, hundreds of meters long, so it is very dangerous to accelerate the descent without any fear, and the length of the rope is not enough. Fortunately, Chen Ergou was also self-aware, and after sliding dozens of meters, he suddenly stopped the car and stopped on a snowdrift in front of a dense forest in the middle.
From here, you can see the mountains below, and large areas of primeval forest are covered in snow and ice. Right in the middle is a meandering lake, which stands alone around the forest. The wind and snow and clouds rushing above the slope could not blow into the layers of trees below.
He let out a long breath and sighed with his hands on his hips, "Friends, I'm a third of the way down...... It's a big Arctic Circle forest. What better place I can hunt anywhere in the world than in the Arctic wilderness. Everything is different here, the way of finding ingredients, hunting, and even eating is completely different. β
"Where there are forests, there will be edible vegetables and plants, and there will be abundant prey. If I'm lucky, I can hunt beavers and mammals like muskrats, snow hares, wolverines and more. In the icy waters of the lake beneath the ice, freshwater fish swim. It's a pity that it's almost dark now, and I really hope that I won't starve to death until I find something to eat. It's time to let them down~"
He pulled the rope three times to give the people on the hill a signal.
The people on the slope saw him skiing steadily, although it was a little thrilling, but there was no lack of excitement, and it also dispelled his worries. After discussing with each other, Sect Leader Huang arranged: "Xiaoyu, you come first, you have better motor nerves, and you will pick us up with Ergou below." Then Yuna picked it up~"
"Okay, brothers, I'll go down and wait for you first. β
"Be careful. β
"Come on!"
Peng Yuyan took a deep breath and said with a smile: "It's not difficult, I should be able to do it very well~"
After that, he learned Chen Ergou's posture and ran and slid down, which was indeed not difficult. Although it is very thrilling, with his athletic talent, as long as he keeps his balance, there will be no danger of somersaults, not to mention that there is a rope on his body to help slow down at all times.
It was only when he got below that he was a little unstoppable, but fortunately, Chen Ergou had already caught him below.
"Wow-"
Pulled up by Chen Ergou, Peng Yuyan roared excitedly, and his voice was transmitted in the snowfield.
The third is Yun'er, she was a little reluctant when she slid down, and she was too nervous to "brake" in the last section, but her feet couldn't stand the force and the whole person rolled down, but fortunately, Chen Ergou made a vicious dog pounce and pressed her in the snow.
The girl's face was flushed, and her face was still enjoying the excitement of high-speed skiing.
After that, Xiaomi, Chen He, Huang Lei and others slid down one after another, and Huang Sect Leader was the last to come down. The whole process is thrilling, once there will be a second time. The rest of the trail continues to slide down in sections, and it is much smoother.
The rising temperature at the bottom of the mountain is not still below freezing, but the temperature at 2 degrees Celsius is still very cold. But it's better to blow the wind on a glacier than to blow the wind on a glacier.
Staggered all the way to the edge of the lake before dark.
"Brothers, we're here~"
Chen Ergou dropped the heavy sleigh tow rope and said, "The edge of the frozen lake is the best place to set up camp. At night, the temperature can drop to minus 30 degrees Celsius, and it will definitely freeze people to death. The three spruce trees here are arranged in a zigzag pattern, with good angles and positions, which are perfect for a warm camp. β
"Have you arrived?"
Everyone was still in a bit of a trance, "Is it finally here?"
Chen Ergou affirmed: "Yes, if there are no accidents, this is where we will survive in the next few days." β
Huang Lei looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him, and suddenly became poetic, and sang with a grin: "The Hanhai Sea is dry and icy, and the clouds are gloomy and bleak. β
"It's beautiful!"
The huge white snowfield in front of me is very beautiful.
In the eyes of a lonely person, the scenery must be very desolate.
Looking around, there is nothing moving except white snow and snow, as if putting people in a desolate world, except for the cold, there is nothing left.
But in the eyes of the sentimental woman, the lake hidden in the depths of the primeval forest seems to be a fairy in a white dress at this moment, where her skirt goes, the snow field is as quiet as a virgin, the snow peak is cold and straight, the jade tree is blooming, and the air is particularly gentle.
Under her gentle soothing, all the restlessness began to quiet down, and the earth was quiet and peaceful, like a sleeping baby in its mother's arms. In this world of silver makeup, this dazzling white overshadows the sky. In this tranquil white, there is nothing impetuous that cannot be let go.
I am afraid that I will never see such a view at home for a lifetime.
Some people were so tired that they collapsed, threw their backpacks on the ground, and lay on the snow and looked up at the dark clouds above their heads, not wanting to move.
But some people are fascinated by the scenery, forget their tiredness for a short time, and tiptoe onto the ice lake.
Millet and Yuna stepped on the white velvet snow, as if walking on the carpet at home. Seeing the different shades of footprints left behind me, it was as if I had done something wrong that I shouldn't have done. Seeing the crystal clear Xue'er being trampled beyond recognition, I couldn't bear to take another half a step forward.
They couldn't help but stop, slowly squatted down, gently picked up a handful of snow from the ground, laughed into a ball, and sniffed it with the tip of their tongues. looked at Chen Ergou, who was already pulling tools out of his backpack in the distance, and suddenly threw a ball of snow over.
No matter how sharp Chen Ergou was, he didn't have eyes behind him, and he was smashed.
Inexplicably looked back, provoking a crisp laugh.
"Whew~"
Rengar couldn't stay idle, and jumped over like a dog to join in the fun.
This fight made the lying man get up again.
Chen Ergou took out the jungle knife and smiled at the camera: "A reserved person must become arrogant when he sees the snowfield." All I want to do now is to set up the shelter as soon as possible and build a fire. If you can, see if you can catch a fish from the lake, or you'll be hungry tonight. β
"I'll help you~" Sect Leader Huang took out his sapper shovel.
Chen Ergou smiled: "Of course you have to come to help, I work too slowly alone." β
The snow was white, and the bushes that occasionally poked their heads out of the snow still stubbornly grew upward, swaying with the bitter northwest wind, as if deliberately defying winter.
