Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Great Avalanche
As the snow mastiff approached, Cui Hao squatted down and stretched out his palm. At this moment, the little guy immediately looked at Cui Hao vigilantly. A look of tigerishness.
Seeing this scene, Cui Hao immediately laughed. It is a species that can fight wolves. There are also some such variants of snow mastiffs in the outside world. It's nothing more than biological alienation. Some people say that snow mastiffs are just beautiful in color. In fact, it may not be as powerful as pure-blooded Tibetan mastiffs such as iron-clad gold.
However, Cui Hao's view is different now. Judging by this little guy in front of him. At most, the birth does not exceed half a month. I was able to walk around in such a big snowstorm. That alone is enough to prove that this little guy is extraordinary.
Maybe it's the kindness expressed by Cui Hao. Maybe it's because the snow is so big. The little guy finally couldn't help it. The stalemate and confrontation situation was abandoned. Cautiously probed. After making sure that there was no danger, he walked towards Cui Hao.
Cui Hao immediately stretched out his palm. Thanks to the licking of the little guy's warm tongue, Cui Hao's other hand also stroked the little guy's back. Then, he picked up the little snow mastiff, walked to the duffel bag, and took out a compressed biscuit. After pinching it hard, it was sent to the front of the little one's mouth.
"Wow, that's so cute. Where did this come from. Just when Cui Hao was teasing the little guy. Behind him, Zhang Siying's surprised voice came.
This exclamation startled the little guys. Cui Hao hurriedly stroked the mane on the little guy's back. Only then did he calm down, and said with a smile: "I ran over by myself." I guess it's a kind of snow mastiff. ”
"How about giving me a hug? Also, did you name it? Sure enough, for any small animal, the girl's resistance is instantly reduced. Even a wise and calm girl like Zhang Siying is no exception.
Cui Hao was a little stunned, he had no experience in feeding pets in his two lives combined. I really didn't think much about this. Do you still want a name? Immediately, Cui Hao said: "No, you can name this little guy." ”
Zhang Siying immediately burst into laughter. All the energy is on the little one. "Well, since it's a snow mastiff and it's found here, how about I call you Xiaoice?" ”
Cui Hao listened and almost laughed. frowned and said, "Xiaoying, you don't need such a cute name." This is a public alas. I think it's called the Ice Lion. The nickname is called Xiaoice. ”
……
The heavy snow for several days directly blocked Cui Hao and his party here, and it was difficult to move an inch. Go, of course you can go. However, there is no need to be so risky. Over the course of a few days, a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the periphery of the col, more than a meter deep.
Using this snow, Cui Hao and the others were like building snowmen, shoveling the snow along the perimeter of the camp. Then some snow was piled up from the outside, and a temporary snow wall was constructed. It's like an Eskimo igloo. The snow did not have much impact on them, but instead acted as a barrier for Cui Hao and them, keeping the wind and snow out.
Fortunately, Cui Hao's supplies are sufficient, and they have fully considered the needs of the next two months, so even so, Cui Hao is not particularly anxious.
Five days down. Every day. In addition to burning snow for water, cooking and eating. In addition, Zhang Siying also occasionally teased the ice lion, and spent the rest of the time in cultivation.
After five days, everyone has made a lot of progress. Zhang Siying is already one foot on the threshold of the late fourth layer of the day after tomorrow. As for Zhang Haonan and Weizi, they are about to break through the third layer of the day after tomorrow. You can enter the fourth floor of the day after tomorrow at any time.
Wake up. Cui Hao habitually walked to the front of the snow wall. Suddenly, Cui Hao was also stunned, and the heavy blizzard that had been going on for many days suddenly stopped.
Cui Hao immediately turned around and said, "Xiaoying, Mouse, Weizi, come and see, the snow has stopped." Get ready to pack your things. After breakfast, we set off immediately. ”
……
Along the edge of a steep slope of 75 degrees. Cui Hao and his entourage of four people almost all leaned on the mountain on the left. On the right, it's like a cliff. In case of any slip-ups. Definitely going to roll down. It seems bland underneath. It's just a patch of snow. However, the devil knows how many murderous intentions are hidden in this.
Cui Hao walked ahead. Behind him is Zhang Siying. Between the necklines of the clothes, a small white head sticks out. From the appearance of the ice lion, it was directly occupied by Zhang Siying.
Cui Hao was very cautious in every step, holding a mountaineering crutch in his hand. No, it's knocking. Without a snow pickaxe, this one can only be used instead. In this way, the speed is naturally difficult to control. One morning down. It was only after walking more than ten miles that it looked. This is still a martial arts foundation for everyone.
A place was emptied. That is, two or three square meters, and everyone sat down. The bags were all resting on the snow at the back. Nibbling on dry food. Cui Hao took out the map and looked at it again. After a while, Cui Hao pointed to the mountain peak in the distance and said, "Go over here and walk down in a circle." For now, that's all it can be. ”
As soon as the words fell, suddenly, Weizi at the very edge of the line shouted: "The dog has run out." ”
With this shout. Zhang Siying also shouted: "Xiaoice." ”
At this moment, the little guy Ice Lion ran directly from Zhang Siying's feet towards the bottom of the hill. Such a steep hill. Without running two steps, the ice lion rolled straight down.
Cui Hao grabbed Zhang Siying at the first time. He said in a deep voice: "Xiaoying, don't be impulsive. It's too dangerous to go on like this. ”
"Shut up!" Zhang Haonan also scolded in a low voice. glared at Gu Wei and said, "Weizi, you want to die." If you're still so loud in a place like this, it's going to cause an avalanche. ”
As Zhang Haonan's words fell. Suddenly, Cui Hao's face changed. His expression became solemn and solemn, and he looked up at the top of the hillside. Then the earth began to shake.
Above, fragments of snow began to roll down. Cui Hao said in a deep voice: "Hurry up." It has already caused an avalanche. ”
As Cui Hao's words fell, all four of them stood up. At this moment, Cui Hao stopped and said slowly: "It's too late." ”
Cui Hao's eyesight is the best among the four. Looking up, there is a kilometer of distance above the hillside. Large expanses of snow began to slide. Moreover, the vibration is getting louder and louder.
The whole width, at least a kilometer or two in length, if the ground is flat, it is impossible to run out of speed in this kind of place, and no matter what, it will be washed down by the snow.
"Old... Boss, I'm sorry. "Weizi also knew that he had done something wrong. Keep your head down. whispered.
Glancing at Weizi, Cui Hao said in a deep voice: "It's already like this." Don't think about it so much. Now, the only way is to go down. ”
"Down?" Zhang Haonan asked rhetorically.
Zhang Siying's eyes lit up at the moment. Nodding his head, he said, "Yes, down." Avalanches are terrifying, but they also have a kind of impact. It's like a waterfall, as long as there is a depression under the hillside. We have every chance of dodging the frontal onslaught, even if we are buried. We have a silver lining. ”
The shaking sound is getting louder and louder. This is the rhythm of nature, this is the power of nature. It's like the whole mountain is shaking. The snow is deepening these days. Originally, this layer of snow was unstable. It's not like a 10,000-year-old glacier. Under the vibration, there is a cascading reaction. Quite a few places have loosened. It was like a rolling torrent of water.
Cui Hao said in a deep voice: "Hold your head in your hands, bend your knees, listen to my command, and roll down together." ”
Seventy degrees, close to eighty degrees of slope, so down, almost in the blink of an eye. It's already plummeting. Soon caught up with the Ice Lion. Cui Hao was sharp-eyed and quick-handed, and caught this little guy as soon as possible. He whispered, "This time I was miserable by you brute." ”
All the way down, the snow behind it also crashed down. The speed is also getting faster and faster, and the huge mass makes the acceleration of the snow faster, gradually closing the distance.
There was a rolling roar in my ears. Snow splashed, and a chill rushed up.
At a height of a thousand meters, Cui Hao and the others almost fell in a bouncing style. More than ten meters apart, twenty meters away on the snow buffer, because of this, Cui Hao and they were not injured, if they really fell vertically, even if they were not flooded by the snow, they would fall to their deaths.
Just when the snow behind him was about to flood his body, Cui Hao's eyes suddenly lit up. At the bottom, a black rock wall came into view. This means that the top of the rock wall is inclined. If it's a regular triangle. There will never be no snow. This also means that the snow above will form a waterfall that rushes outward.
Cui Hao said loudly: "Push harder to this side, stretch out your hands, and try your best to expand the contact area." ”
It's similar to a hang glider. Rely on the power of the wind to change the landing point of four people.
In the blink of an eye, the four of them fell heavily into the snow and smashed directly into a depth of one or two meters. There is no time to think, too late to observe the surroundings. The ensuing snow crashed down. With a loud noise. In an instant, it was flooded here. Although the direction was not on Cui Hao's side, there was still a lot of snow rushing to this side.
The sound continued for several minutes. It wasn't until his voice stopped completely that Cui Hao spoke: "It's safe, it's the right bet." I didn't feel suffocated for so long. This indicates that there is an air passage. We hurried to dig up the snow. Let's talk about the real get out of trouble. ”
