Pv07 Patience
The huge strange fish lay on the ice, staring at Chen Zheng.
The eyes of one person and one monster met for the second time, and for some reason, Chen Zheng suddenly shivered.
The monster fish fell silent after seeing Chen Zheng, and after watching him quietly for a few seconds, the tail left in the water flicked suddenly, swept out a huge splash, and then disappeared into the ice cave with a slippery body.
It...... Gave up?
No! Its last look doesn't look like it's giving up!
The place where Chen Zheng was standing at this time was covered with thick snow, and he couldn't see the ice under his feet, so that Chen Zheng and the monster fish were separated from each other one by one, unable to look at each other.
But......
β¦β¦ Chen Zheng remembered the monster fish's last look, it would never give up like this!
Gotta get out of here!
Chen Zheng thought about it, and naturally followed his footsteps......
"Squeaky ......"
Chen Zheng stepped on the snow, and the snow was flattened by his weight, making an overwhelming grinding sound.
A flash of light suddenly flashed in Chen Zheng's mindββ
- Direction, distance! It can tell where I am underwater!
- Sound, ice is solid, water is liquid, even after the loss of different media, the sound of footsteps can still be used as a basis for correcting direction.
- Snow, porous structure, filled with air, can play a good sound insulation effect......
Chen Zheng suddenly and cautiously lay on the ground, held the white shirt wrapped above his head, and slowly rolled into the distance!
When the contact area becomes larger, the pressure per unit area becomes smaller, and the sound emitted when the snow is compressed is sharply reduced, and due to the thick layer of snow, there is still a lot of snow under Chen Zheng's body that has not been compressed, but has become a natural soundproof material, so that Chen Zheng can quietly leave the place where he once stood.
In this way, after Chen Zheng rolled out more than ten meters, just as he began to wonder if that monster fish would have such an IQ......
"Click!"
At the place where he began to roll, the ice was suddenly pushed up, and a giant axe appeared out of thin air, cutting directly into the middle of the snow mark where Chen Zheng was lying down!! Immediately afterwards, two hooks were fiercely buckled on the "neck" and "ankle" of the snow mark, and finally the two crab claws viciously clamped towards the "chest" and "buttocks".
Fortunately, Chen Zheng was no longer there.
"Hiss......"
Chen Zheng took a breath lightly and held it, just lying on his back in the thick snow, his weight pressed the snow out of a snow pit, just enough to cover his body, and looked slightly sideways in the direction of the monster fish.
After realizing that its attack missed, the monster fish completely pierced through the ice and seemed to climb on top of the ice again. However, from Chen Zheng's point of view, most of his vision was blocked by snow, and he could only vaguely see those arthropod-like tentacles on the back of the monster fish's neck.
Then, the arthropod-like tentacles disappeared, and the monster fish sank into the water.
After hearing the sound of water and confirming that the monster fish was gone, Chen Zheng hurriedly continued to roll, until he rolled out hundreds of meters, and only then did he slowly stand up after panting tiredly, shaking the snow on his body, and digging out the snow that poured into the cuffs of his neck.
Looking back from here, the ice surface and ice cave were no longer visible, only the marks he had rolled all the way had been extending crookedly to his feet.
"Shhh...... It's cold! β
Chen Zheng shivered.
I've been exercising all the time, and my whole body is in a state of extreme fanaticism, and I don't have time to pay attention to the cold.
But now, once out of danger, all sorts of secondary physiological needs begin to manifest themselves: thirst, hunger, and cold.
Why is it so cold!?
Chen Zheng shivered again, feeling that his lips didn't seem to feel anything, and suddenly felt a little itchy in his ears, and scratched the result with his hand-
"Huh!?"
Chen Zheng looked at the ears in his hands in a daze......
- That's his own ears!!
When I was a child, the old man said that in the past, it could be so cold that people's ears could be frozen, Chen Zheng always thought that it was something like urban weird talk, but he didn't expect to encounter it today!
Fortunately, there is alien technology!
Chen Zheng opened the package, took out the Jelly Star Man's "mobile phone" from it, put his ear back and pressed the switch......
As the light shrouded him, his ears itched at first, and then soon the tingling disappeared and became warm.
When the ear was fully recovered, this warmth left the wound of the ear and surged to other places, this warm current not only repaired Chen Zheng's ears, but even the lips that had been numb from the cold before began to regain consciousness.
Just as this warm current flowed towards Chen Zheng's chest......
"Didiβ"
Jelly Star's "mobile phone" suddenly emitted a short prompt sound, and then the green light disappeared, and the warm current in Chen Zheng's body also stopped flowing.
ββ¦β¦ Is there no power......"
Chen Zheng looked at the jelly star "mobile phone" with pity, and couldn't help but regret it a little. If you hadn't coveted that bit of warmth just now, maybe the remaining energy would have been able to treat a similar frostbite again.
But think about it, the jelly star people have used it so many times before, and several times they have rescued Chen Zheng from his near-death state, and the energy consumed is obviously many times warmer than the few seconds that Chen Zheng coveted.
"I don't know...... Can this thing be charged? β
After trying a few times to make sure it was no longer usable, Chen Zheng cherished it.
Looking at a few other things on the ground, Chen Zheng simply put those sleeves and vests on his body.
The figure of the jelly star is about the same as Chen Zheng, and he didn't feel anything when he wore the vest, but when he put on the sleeves, Chen Zheng originally thought that he couldn't put them in, but he didn't know what the material was for these clothes, and they could be easily put on the outside, and the size was as if the sleeves were specially made for Chen Zheng.
ββ¦β¦ Smart Fiber ......"
No, it's not just smart fibers!
When Chen Zheng put on the upper half of the black suit jacket, he obviously felt less cold!
It's all broken like this, and there is still such a good thermal insulation effect!? Chen Zheng thinks that if this technology is brought to the earth, those manufacturers who make outdoor products such as jackets can buy a piece of tofu and hit Shi.
Without saying a word, put on the pants as well, and pull out the strips of cloth before using the clothes to tie the trouser legs and sleeves tightly, so that a "clean" beggar was born!
However, whether it looks good or not is secondary, and keeping warm is the most important.
After cleaning up, it had been more than half an hour since the monster fish disappeared, but Chen Zheng still didn't dare to be careless.
In nature, the patience of hunters for hunting is amazing. In Chen Zheng's knowledge reserve, there are even examples that can wait for nearly a year, such as the crocodile in Africa that only hunts on the days of the annual wildebeest migration -
- Mentioned in the BBC documentary "The Hunt".
Standing on this endless snowfield, the underwater threat made Chen Zheng have to walk on thin ice carefully no matter what he does.
