Chapter 539: A Crab Is Not as Good as A Crab
There is a lot of detail in camping, and it is not just a place to dig a pit and sleep, and if someone does do this, most of them will not see the sun the next day. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info so generally speaking, experienced people spend a long time preparing for camping when they are in the field.
It was still early when Wu Han and the others were preparing to camp, so they spent a little more time looking for a campsite, and finally found a more satisfactory location, but it was a little far away from Ding Chen.
Wu Han had to support his wife and children, so in the past, when the snow closed the mountain, he would also venture into the mountains to hunt, and if he needed to spend the night in the mountains, he would dig snow caves and hide. But this time, he learned to make a snow wall with Ding Chen, that is, to use snow to build a wall around the campsite, Ding Chen called this a snow fence.
Compared to the snow cave, the snow fence without a roof looks unheated, but the snow cave cannot make a fire, but in the middle of the snow fence you can light a fire. The surface of the snow wall is baked by the heat of the campfire to form a layer of ice wall-like structure, which can effectively reflect the heat and is warmer than the snow cave.
The only disadvantage of this snow fence is that it cannot be roofed with snow like the Eskimo igloos, on the one hand, because the structure of the snow is not suitable for building a dome, and on the other hand, because the heat of the campfire rises upward, which will melt the snow, unless everyone doesn't care about the rain falling on the top of their heads, otherwise there will be no one to live in at all. If you really want a roof, you can only build it with tree branches.
This time, however, the three of them found a large rock that was half in the air, and planned to build a snow fence with a roof. After all, the four of them are all family people, and it is really unaccustomed to counting the stars when they open their eyes every night without sleeping.
There was also a lot of snow under the big rocks, so the three of them decided to clear the snow under the stones first, and then spread some dry branches so that they could sleep comfortably at night. Unexpectedly, just after digging a few times, Wu Han found that something in the shadow shook a little.
In such a cold weather, cold-blooded animals have already hibernated, so Wu Han is not worried about the danger of snakes and insects, but feels a little excited, looking at the size, it should be a rabbit or badger.
The four of them all carried flashlights with them, but Wu Han's former mountain village had no electricity, so he didn't have the habit of using flashlights, or the soldiers around him heard his greeting and took out the flashlights and shone them over.
Under the light of the flashlight, the three people saw what was under the stone almost at the same time, and they all immediately let out an exclamation, this guy hiding under the stone was not an animal, but another mechanical crab. Unlike the crab that Ding Chen was accompanying, this crab was now alone, and it seemed that it had not caught its prey.
I don't know if it's because there is no prey and it's grumpy, or because of the bad temper after being exposed to strong light, this mechanical crab showed aggression far beyond the first one of its kind, and actually took advantage of the surprise of the three people to rush up.
Because it was hiding in the innermost part of the crack in the stone, all three of them tried to drill into it a little, and then looked in on the ground, and when they found that it was rushing over, it was too late to stand up and dodge, so the soldier with the flashlight waved the flashlight and hit the crab.
The six legs of mechanical crabs are very sharp at the tip, and it is they that leave marks on the hard ice. Matched by the resulting adhesion, it rushed in front of the soldier almost instantly, and then slashed at the soldier's wrist with a pincer before he could hit it with a flashlight.
The structure of the two large claws of the mechanical crab is very similar to that of the crab, with the sharp side on the inside, but the movable part is longer than the fixed part, and has a sharp hook at the tip. It uses this hook to attack soldiers.
Finally, the soldier's reaction speed was okay, and he withdrew his hand in time at the critical moment, and the hook of the mechanical crab failed to hook his hand, but just slashed on the flashlight, and the flashlight flew away.
The soldier screamed and turned to run, feeling a pain in his calf, already hurt. It's just that it's cold on the mountain, and everyone wears a lot, so although the clothes were torn this time, the length and depth of the wound on the soldier's leg were very limited.
The soldier only felt a chill on his legs, and guessed that he had been stabbed, but he didn't know that the wound was not serious, and this time he was even more frightened, and his legs kicked backwards, kicking the mechanical crab that fell to the ground. Although this crab is agile and very lethal, its weight is limited after all, and after taking this kick, it flew backwards four or five meters away, hit the stone and bounced back, rolled on the ground, and chased after it again.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the soldier had already crawled out of the crack in the rock, and then fell into the snowdrift.
This is the snow cleared by three people from under the stones, and they were originally going to pile up next to the stones to build a snow wall, but because they had just been shoveled out from under the stones, it was still quite soft, and the soldiers fell down, so they simply rolled on the snowdrift with their clothes together, and turned over directly.
The mechanical crab chased after it from behind, and also rushed headlong into the snowdrift, its unit weight was no larger than that of the soldier, but the six tiny arthropod legs were stuck in the soft snowdrift without any strength.
Wu Han and another soldier ran out one step earlier, and looked back in shock, just in time to see this scene, Wu Han reacted quickly, picked up his rifle, and fired a shot at the mechanical crab floating on the snowdrift.
Wu Han's marksmanship is good, and most importantly, he is only less than ten meters away from the crab, which is the most comfortable distance to shoot with a rifle, so he can hit with one shot.
But something happened that made the three of them drop their jaws, after the mechanical crab was hit by a bullet, it fell out of the snowdrift, and after falling on the snow, it immediately rushed towards Wu Han again. The shot didn't hurt it, it freed it from the snowdrift.
Without being reminded by his companion, Wu Han turned around and ran, now is not the time to be unable to straighten his waist in the crack of the stone, when he runs with all his might, even if the mechanical crab runs fast, it has no wheels after all, and it can't catch up with Wu Han, who is tall and has long legs.
The other two soldiers were not idle, seeing the mechanical crab chasing Wu Han, the other soldier who was not injured immediately raised his gun and shot at the mechanical crab. His marksmanship may not be worse than Wu Han's, but it was a little reluctant to shoot the fast-moving crab, and a series of bullets flew out, causing snowflakes to splash on the ground, and after the ice mist, he saw that the crab actually turned around and rushed towards him with its teeth and claws.
The soldier took a breath, ignored his companion's shouts to run, and steadily held his gun and opened fire on the mechanical crab, which was finally hit by a bullet, and was sent to the air, rolled over in the air, and then fell into the snow. (To be continued.) )
