Being able to find a small pine forest nearby was lucky for the two.

From the moment the sun goes down, the temperature here drops non-stop, rapidly, and soon drops below freezing.

The wind, which had not been seen for a long time, began to appear, and the terrain here was much higher than all the previous ridges, and it could no longer stop the wind from coming.

And the warm wind blowing from the Indian Ocean, when it arrives, has turned into a biting cold wind, which becomes more and more violent as night falls.

But Xiao Weiwei and Liu Danqing didn't feel cold at all.

A low, thick shelter built in shelter from the wind, a warm fire, and a thick wolfskin mattress underneath him, and an equally thick bearskin or leopard fur coat.

These provided warmth and comfort for the two, so much so that they were jokingly called the camping in the outing by the audience friends.

Soon, the white belly of the fish appeared in the east again, and a new day came.

After breakfast, the two of them walked out of the grove, freshened up, and began to climb up the ridge.

At this point, it didn't matter if it was along the stream or not, because the stream soon disappeared and became a moist mountainous area.

The melted snow flows through this large mountainous area and then collects along the terrain to form a small stream.

Countless streams slowly converge to form the Taiping River, which winds all the way south into the Indian Ocean.

The road became more and more difficult to walk, in addition to being steep, the rocks were still very slippery, but fortunately both of them were in good physical condition, and they climbed slowly but firmly.

After walking for a while, Liu Danqing's feet slipped several times, so he asked, "Weiwei, is there any slippage under the soles of your feet?"

"Yes" Xiao Weiwei replied: "The ground is too slippery, it looks like snow, but as soon as you step on it, it slips, several times." ”

Liu Danqing stopped when he heard this, turned out the leftover scraps of leopard bear and wolf skin, cut them into strips with a knife, and then connected them in twos and twos.

tied one end to his waist, and Liu Danqing tied the other end to Xiao Weiwei's waist.

This is called a safety rope, and it is a common safety measure when climbing a group mountain, especially when climbing snow-capped mountains such as Mount Everest.

"It's okay now, the two of us have become mandarin ducks with the same fate, and life and death are tied to the line. ”

Liu Danqing said with a smile and continued to open the road in front.

But his heart is not as calm as it seems.

When he died in the previous life, he also had a safety rope on his body, and he didn't fight hard to survive, but because his will to survive was too weak, he gave up on his own.

And now, his will to survive is so strong that even if something happens, he will seize everything he can to save the lives of the two.

It took the two of them three or four hours to get out of this wet snow.

Now, they entered the real snow-capped mountain area, and looking back, there were patches of mottled yellow plots, and above, it was pure white, except that it was white.

In the sunlight, the snow shines brightly.

"Weiwei, we need sunglasses. Liu Danqing stopped, turned to Xiao Weiwei who was approaching behind him, and said.

"Oh, I see, it's to prevent snow blindness, right, I learned in high school that walking on snow with the naked eye, because it's only white, and it reflects sunlight, which can lead to snow blindness. But we don't have sunglasses, what should we do?"

Liu Danqing took out a bottle of water from his arms, drank half of it himself, and then handed it to Xiao Weiwei, saying: "There is always a way, you drink the rest of the water first, and I will use the bottle to make sunglasses." ”

The bottle contained a special drink from Myanmar, a Tiger & Lion sports drink, which Liu Danqing bought at a gas station on his way from Mandalay to Myitkyina.

However, the drink inside has long been drunk and refilled with stream water several times, and now even the stream water has been drunk, and only an empty bottle remains.

The bottle is made of brownish-yellow plastic, so Liu Danqing said that he would use it to make sunglasses.

Carefully cut four pieces of the bottle with a knife, cut off a section of 550 paracord that is used as a shoelace and tie it, adjust the length according to the size of the two heads, and the two pairs of flat brown sunglasses are completed.

When you wear sunglasses, you put a piece of bear skin on your nose, and you feel comfortable.

Feeling that the temperature was getting colder and colder, Liu Danqing simply helped Xiao Weiwei put on a wolfskin hat, and with the help of Xiao Weiwei, she also put on a wolfskin hat, and then tied wolf skin arm guards and wolf skin leg guards to each other, and the two continued to set off.

Not to mention, this handmade "beggars don't want it" version of sunglasses is really useful, and the eyes are no longer white, but soft orange.

And the wild suit also brought enough warmth to the two of them, so that the next trip was not so difficult.

"Look, there are so many birds. ”

Because of Liu Danqing opening the way in front of her head, Xiao Weiwei can look left and right, and this time, she has made a new discovery.

Liu Danqing looked back in the direction of her finger, and saw that in the white snow, there was a rock that showed a little brown high and protruded, and there were several small white and gray birds resting on it.

"It is a light-bellied snow pheasant, also known as Tibetan snow chicken, which is said to be very delicious, no less than the flying dragon in the northeast, and the nutritional value is also very high, and it has very few medicinal effects that can suppress rabies. ”

As soon as Xiao Weiwei heard that the taste was delicious, her spirit immediately came again, and she hurriedly said: "Hurry up, find a way to catch two of them to eat, I have been eating beast meat every day for the past few days, and I am uncomfortable to death." ”

But Liu Danqing immediately gave her a slap in the face: "Now I'm not sure if it's in China or Burma, so we can't hunt them." ”

"They are national second-class protected animals, if they are encountered in Myanmar, they will be killed and eaten, but this is China's and needs to be protected. ”

This logic, naked regional discrimination, what does it mean to kill in Myanmar and kill, and in China you need protection?

Although this is the reason, China has wildlife protection laws, but Myanmar does not, so it doesn't matter if many animals are hunted in Myanmar, but in China, it is a crime.

But when these words were heard by those Burmese people, it felt awkward.

So these light-bellied snowcocks escaped from the hands of two foodies.

"Tibetan Snow Chicken: In the next life, I will still be a chicken in China. ”

"The country has saved you, comrades Xueji, you have to thank the party and the government. ”

A group of viewers happily joked that this is what they like to see the most, the two of them face the food, but they are bound by the law and dare not start.

It wasn't until three o'clock in the afternoon that the two of them climbed the ridge of the snow-capped mountain with great difficulty.

Standing on the ridge, the two temporarily took off their "beggar don't want version" sunglasses and looked north.

Below the snow line is a lush alpine coniferous forest, and as the terrain descends, the color of the jungle becomes darker and the needles turn into broadleaves.

As in Shannan, a large amount of melted snow slowly gathers to form small streams, which flow down the mountain, gradually converge into larger streams, then into rivers, and then into a long river.

That is the Chayu River, next to the Chayu River, there is a road, so as long as they reach the Chayu River, they can stop the car next to the road and return to human society.

But now they're more concerned about overnight accommodation.

On the snowy mountains, it is more difficult to descend than to go up, that is, no matter what, they will not be able to go to the forest below today.

"There" Liu Danqing pointed to a depression and said to Xiao Weiwei: "It looks good there, there is more snow in the depression, because there is less sun, and the snow layer will be firmer, tonight, we will sleep in the snow room." ”

"Snow Room?" Xiao Weiwei wondered, and then her eyebrows fluttered, eager to try.

"Okay, let's sleep in the snow room at night, HOHO~~~"

The live broadcast room is also noisy, very lively, the snow room, it's romantic and interesting to listen to.

Walking to the depression with one foot deep and one foot shallow, Liu Danqing looked at it and patted it with his hand.

"Yes, very solid snowdrift, that's it, digging. ”

Liu Danqing untied the backpack and put it aside, then lay on the ground, began to shave the snow with his hands, and instructed Xiao Weiwei: "Weiwei, you put aside the snow I shaved, so that it will not affect my work." ”

"Okay" Xiao Weiwei responded, then took off her backpack and put it down, and began to concentrate on starting.

"The most important thing is that the snow layer must be solid, because it does not get sunlight all year round, and it is sunken, and I don't know how many years of accumulation of snow has been accumulated, and over the years, the snow layer has become very solid. ”

"Secondly, the snow room should be dug with a small opening and a large space, so as to help encircle it, and also help to maintain the structure of the snow cave and prevent it from collapsing due to lack of support. ”

"Finally, the snow on the roof should not be too thick, lest the snow cave collapse and bury us underneath and not be able to get out. ”

"So, a depression like this is the most suitable, followed by a gentle slope, the snow is thick enough, but the steep slope is not good, dig and dig, dig an avalanche, and it will be Spartan. ”

While explaining and excavating, Liu Danqing spent more than an hour digging out a space about one meter five high, 1.5 meters x 2 meters.

The entrance of the cave is just a small hole with a diameter of fifty or sixty centimeters, and you have to lie down to get into it when you go in and out.

Dig out a bed fifty or sixty centimeters high at the back of the igloo and use the dug snow to widen and solidify the bed.

Finally, he slapped the surrounding walls, and Liu Danqing called Xiao Weiwei to come in.

Using her mobile phone to turn on the flashlight mode, Xiao Weiwei looked at the snow cave, "Wow!, this is the snow cave, it's so beautiful, it's all white, it's so beautiful!"

The audience in the live broadcast room is too, and they are all boasting about the charm of the snow cave.

It's just a small white cave with nothing but a fairy tale color, and all at once it has been transformed from a slum into a castle.
