Chapter 57: Threesome
Along the way, I learned from Jon that they had also heard the legend of a snowman on the mountain before they arrived here, but they didn't expect to run into each other in the afternoon on the first day of their arrival, and they also lost a colleague.

It's not good to see Jon talking sadly, after all, there are not many people who are like-minded with me and willing to accompany me to fulfill my wishes, but now I have passed away, and whoever I am must be saddened.
At this point, Jon suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Lee, do you know what exactly attacked us just now?" I held my chin and thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, I don't know what kind of species it is, maybe it hasn't been found yet, but now at least it's certain that this animal is the snowman in the mouth of the local villagers." ā
Jon nodded, "Although it was flustered at the time, its general appearance seems to be not much similar to that of us humans. I interrupted Jon and said, "Do you also think that this so-called snowman is a primate-like creature?" ā
"That's right, maybe it's an orangutan, a mysterious primate that hasn't been discovered by humans yet." Jon said with some excitement. But I seemed to read something different in his eyes.
It is estimated that after walking for half an hour, the sky has completely darkened, but we are still staying in the middle and lower area, and it is impossible to get out without three or five days, Jon pointed to an ice cave not far away and said: "It is better for us to stay here tonight, and then continue to hurry tomorrow." ā
I nodded in agreement, after all, I might come across something on the road at night.
Jon took out the flashlight in his backpack and walked in first, we followed closely, the ice cave was not very large, it was estimated that it was only eight or nine square meters, it should have been blocked by rocks when the snow collapsed, thus forming such a cave.
Using the flint and steel, we built a fire in it and started talking, from which I learned that Jon was an explorer from Italy, who often traveled around the world on some very dangerous expeditions, and several times his life was on the line, but it still didn't change his love for adventure. I have a lot of admiration for this kind of people, and I can't help but talk more about them.
At this time, the green hat went to bed early because he could not understand Chinese, and there was only the crackling of the bonfire around except the wind, but a sound of footsteps crept into our ears.
We both frowned at the same time, I clutched the ice axe, he picked up a burning stick, always on the lookout, and after a while the footsteps came from far and near, as if he had reached the outside of the cave, probably because of the bonfire, he had not been able to enter, as if he had been wandering outside the cave.
Could it be that the things outside this cave are afraid of fire? I told Jon about this idea, and Jon agreed with it, so we wrapped some clothes and fabrics that were not commonly used and added some pine resin to help burn, and made two torches that could burn for a long time, and after lighting the fire, I took the lead in throwing a stone out, and in an instant a white shadow rushed in front of my eyes, and I stared at the right time to pounce, and took the ice axe into his back, Jon and I also cooperated very tacitly, and Jon grinned in pain and poked the torch into his mouth. I really didn't expect foreigners to be so good at playing now.
The thing opened its mouth or closed it, and Jon took the opportunity to take out the dagger and stab it in the stomach, and then I pulled out the ice axe and pulled Jon into the hole. At this time, the green hair has been woken up by the sound of our fight, and after getting up, he said a lot of words that he didn't understand, but at least he could see that he was in a hurry, poof, the snow outside the cave shook off a large piece, half of the snowman's head had been squeezed in, I picked up the ice axe is a monza, but it didn't seem to have any effect, and one of its hands was about to approach the green hair's side, the green hat picked up a switchblade and cut off the snowman's two fingers, the snowman was in pain, and his right hand retracted, Jon wasted no time in plunging the dagger into the snowman's left eye, and the snowman fled in confusion.
I sat down on the ground with a sigh of relief, tonight was safe, but tomorrow, I guess Jon is almost the same as me now, Jon wanted to hold on a little longer, but the exhaustion overcame the nervousness, and finally he fell asleep on the backpack.
The next morning, Jon woke up early, looked at me and asked, "Didn't you sleep all night yesterday?" I shook my head: "I just woke up, you don't have to worry too much, I know my own body, at least I know it better than you." ā
Jon shrugged his shoulders and smiled at me, and then called Greenfur to get ready for breakfast, and then we were on the road together, saying that breakfast was nothing more than a little compressed biscuit and a pot of fresh water that was already full of ice ballast, and it seemed that Greenhair was tired of the food, and hurriedly drank a few sips of water before asking no more.
It doesn't matter to me what it tastes like, it doesn't matter if I eat it or not, so Jon doesn't doubt me, and I can only pretend.
After breakfast and packing my bags, I quietly poked my head out, looked around, and found that there was no problem, so I beckoned to the two of them to come out quickly, and after coming out, I found that the road outside was not very obvious, and I could only vaguely discern the general direction, I looked at Jon helplessly, but Jon tilted his head and smiled: "I may not be very good at anything else, but please rest assured, as long as I don't die, I can definitely take you out." ā
Looking at Jon's confident eyes, I can't help but be full of enthusiasm in my heart, Jon walked in front, green hair in the middle, I broke off, just like this, the three of us walked for about an hour and have been safe, but the danger has never dissipated, the three of us know that the snowman last night is not dead, so it is very likely that he will come to us for revenge today, the enraged snowman should be terrible, at least the three of us may not be his opponents.
In order to relieve the pressure, the three of us were chatting along the way, from which I learned that Jon turned out to be a veteran, just turned twenty-five years old this year, three years older than me, and the green hair is also an authentic Italian, but he has suffered from congenital heart disease since he was a child, and his physical fitness has not been very good, but the innate adventurer spirit also made him resolutely embark on the explorer's journey, and suffered a lot along the way.
