Chapter 696: Snowy Risk
Hearing that these three simple and honest young people from the mountain village were actually the guides that the strong men of the B.C. detective group had found from the nearby villages, Su Xinyuan suddenly realized that he was very happy.
Bi Jian, he and Mu Ningxue had no experience of living in this kind of snowy plateau, and although Luo Jiu and Lixiang had rich life experience, they had never been to this kind of plateau area thousands of meters above the sea, with these three young guides who were extremely familiar with everything in the vast snowy mountains ahead, the search operation of the three teams would undoubtedly be more convenient.
Soon, Su Xinyuan and these three young guides all got to know each other, and the young guide assigned to him, Mu Ningxue, Lixiang, Luo Jiu, and Tang Xin was named Leia, a young man who didn't talk much and looked a little silent, Su Xinyuan was still quite satisfied with him.
Since they had already known that the cycle of Su Xinyuan and the others entering the mountain this time was once every three days, when the three young guides left the village, they each brought their own dry food and some other items, presumably what they needed to enter the mountain, they were all packed in a bag made of animal skins, and carried them on their backs.
And Su Xinyuan and Chen Meier, the strong men of the detective group, are standard military equipment, including dry food and other ropes and miniature lighting equipment and cold things, etc., all of which are packed in a marching bag, which is also not big, and one person carries one, which is very convenient.
It's only seven o'clock in the morning, and everyone hasn't eaten breakfast yet, and after a while, the strong man of the elder-level detective group who stayed in the camp has already cooked a hot broth, and some noodles or something, which looks extremely fragrant, and a big pot makes everyone eat a mouth full of oil, and the whole body is ambiguous.
After breakfast, everyone took a short break and began their first search operation. The search direction assigned by the three teams is different, the team led by Chen Meier searches the front direction of the mountain range, while the team of Gao Leng Xiao Lori Liuli searches the direction of the left side of the mountain range, and the area on the right side of the mountain range is handed over to Su Xinyuan's team to search.
After the three teams officially entered the mountain range, they marched up a few hundred meters, and they had already entered the snowy area, and the ground began to appear white snow, and it was from here that the three teams finally separated and slowly walked towards their respective search areas......
Because they are on the plateau, the sea dial line in the area under their feet has reached above the snow line, that is to say, everything around is snowy, not only the temperature is very low, but the oxygen content in the air is also very small, so the speed of Su Xinyuan and his party is not very fast, it can even be said to be very slow.
Fortunately, everyone is equipped with equipment that is specially designed to survive in this climate and environment, such as snow non-slip boots and special warm clothes, otherwise, if you want to stay in such an environment for three days, it is estimated that even with the strong strength of Su Xinyuan and others, it is definitely not an easy thing.
A group of six people walked on foot in the vast snowy area, and before they knew it, everything around them had become a world of snow, and even on the way behind them, the emerald green of the area at the foot of the mountain had become extremely distant, as if it were a dream.
A few hours passed in the blink of an eye, and after searching for so long, the final result was nothing, the place where the entrance to the "Snowy Secret Realm" was located was nowhere to be found, and there was still no clue.
This is also the result expected by Su Xinyuan and the others, if the target location is found so easily, it is impossible to call it "Snowy Secret Realm", with the word "secret", its obscurity and secrecy are naturally obvious.
What's more, compared to the entire area divided into them, only a small part of what they have walked under their feet is now, and there is a long way to go.
Because it was almost noon, and the group of six people continued to walk in the snow for several hours, the physical consumption was also huge, so at Su Xinyuan's suggestion, several people stopped their steps, found a relatively flat snow area and stopped, and began to take out some dry food from their bags, each replenishing their bodies, as for drinking water, although everyone also brought a pot, but more often than not, they drank some snow directly, after all, the pot they carried with them was filled with water in a thermos pot, However, it cannot be consumed at will if it is used to deal with some unexpected emergencies.
The dry food was tasteless, but because everyone was hungry, it seemed to taste with relish, while eating the dry food, Su Xinyuan and the others talked to Yalei and learned from him about some things in this mysterious snowy region, such as some precautions for surviving in the snowy region and so on.
For these things, Yalei, who has been living in this environment, is naturally familiar with them, and he came as soon as he opened his mouth.
Although this simple young man didn't say much, he seemed to know that the things he was talking about at the moment were extremely important to Su Xinyuan and the five of them, for example, if something happened that caused their team to disperse, the precautions he said would probably directly mean the safety of Su Xinyuan and the others. So Yalei said very seriously and carefully.
Of course, this is also because he doesn't know the true strength of Su Xinyuan and the others, otherwise, I'm afraid that he won't have this kind of thought.
After all, although the harsh living environment is a serious test for ordinary people, for powerhouses like Su Xinyuan and Mu Ningxue who have non-strength strength, no matter how bad the environment can be, it is only affected in terms of action, and it is simply impossible to say that it directly endangers their lives.
However, some of the situations mentioned by Yalei still attracted the attention of Su Xinyuan and the others. For example, the snow beast and the snow storm he spoke of are two of them.
According to Yalei, if you encounter a real snow storm, the entire snowy plateau will not only blow a fierce hurricane, so that people can't even open their eyes, and the whole world will be covered with goose feathers and snow, from heaven to earth, making people completely lose their sense of direction, and even the footprints of the road behind them will be covered by the snow in an instant, and the direct result is to get lost.
In such an environment, it is extremely dangerous to get lost, because the whole world is icy and snowy, there are no trees and caves and other places to shelter, maybe you have encountered some places that can be used to avoid the wind and snow on the way, such as some natural steep slopes behind you, but with the blizzard, the traces of the road are erased, and you want to go back and find that simple haven, it will become a luxury.
It can be said that the plateau blizzard is simply the most terrifying nature killer for people who enter the plateau snowy region, and few people who really encounter it can survive.
Listening to Yalei's words, Su Xinyuan, Mu Ningxue, Lixiang, Luo Jiu and Tang Xin couldn't help but look at each other, and they all saw a look of surprise on each other's faces.
This kind of terrifying plateau blizzard, even if they encounter it, they are afraid that it will be a big trouble, although they all have inhuman-level powerful strength, but in the face of the great power of nature, it is obviously too weak. Fortunately, the weather is very sunny now, and it is estimated that I will not encounter that extreme and terrifying climate.
In addition to the blizzard, another equally terrifying natural disaster is the avalanche, once it encounters an avalanche, sometimes it may be buried under dozens or hundreds of meters of thick snow and ice, if it really encounters this situation, it is absolutely lifeless for ordinary people, even if it is a strong person like Su Xinyuan and Mu Ningxue, it is extremely dangerous.
However, avalanches do not usually occur, and they must be caused by certain triggers, so there is no need to worry too much.
As for the last biggest threat that Yalei mentioned, that is, the problem of the snowy beasts, for Su Xinyuan and the others, it was simply a complete joke. After hearing this, a few people smiled and threw it directly to the back of their minds, but Yalei had a solemn face.
According to Yalei, in this vast plateau and snowy region, in fact, in addition to the ice and snow that can be seen everywhere, all kinds of beasts in the ordinary forest actually exist, but because they grow in this environment, the beasts and those close relatives in the mountains and forests in the ordinary sea have all undergone some changes, such as the fur is thicker and finer, so that their ability to withstand the cold is greatly improved, and at the same time, the color of the fur is becoming lighter and lighter, and even tends to snow white, which makes their body shape and the plateau snow environment perfectly integrated, if you deliberately sneak up, it will be difficult to detect at all, and by the time the other party suddenly attacks, it will be too late......
"How can there be such a thing?"
Hearing Yalei's introduction to the plateau beasts, Lixiang on the side was interested, and said with a smile: "I once saw a leather coat that is said to be made of whole leopard skin in a luxury fur shop abroad, with snow-white fluff all over the body, and said that it was a real snow leopard, at that time I thought it was a store bragging, after all, although leopards are common, but the snow leopard with pure white fur is almost never seen, according to Yalei, it turns out that this creature really exists." It's amazing, I knew I bought that snow leopard fur in the first place......"
"Although the snow leopard and the fur are beautiful, but in our place, they are not much different from the furs of other animals, if this young lady likes it, if we meet a snow leopard along the way, I will knock it off and skin it and give it to you."
Hearing Lixiang's words, Yalei smiled innocently, and after a pause, he continued: "It's that you brought a lot of things this time, which we don't have here, and the uncle before hired the three of us in exchange for these things, if I beat down Miss Snow Leopard Skin, if you like it, just give some of this kind of things that we don't have as a reward......"
