Chapter 187: It's too grumpy

In the survival route planned by Ye Xuan, if you continue to move forward for about 10 kilometers, you will enter the forest line.

He must get to the forest line by tomorrow night, or his life will be in danger. Because the environment he was in was a glacier, and everything was hidden under a thick layer of snow. There was no food and no firewood for heating.

In such cold weather, the body's heat will be consumed at an alarming rate, and with his current physique, it can only last for two days at most. Therefore, he had to rush to the forest line as soon as possible.

However, the thick snow allowed him to move at turtle speed, and the snow-capped mountains ahead forced him to take a longer detour, and at the current speed, crossing 10 kilometers of snow in two days was a huge challenge for him.

Before you know it, it's noon.

The sun hung high in the sky, but it didn't feel a hint of warmth, and the cold wind behind it seemed to have a tendency to get bigger. Although the thermometer of the watch now shows minus 20 degrees, the biting cold wind makes the actual temperature even lower. Fortunately, he is not going against the wind, otherwise the situation would have been even more difficult.

Rushing is a very boring thing, Ye Xuan has long been very familiar with this kind of live broadcast garbage time, glancing at the barrage from time to time to maintain interaction with the audience.

"What if you're alone and you're buried in an avalanche?" he replied to the audience's question, "Generally speaking, the survival rate of an avalanche alone is very low. In avalanche rescue, there is a best time to survive, known as the golden 15 minutes. You know, avalanches can't actually kill people directly, and they are mainly fatal because of asphyxia and hypothermia at the core. This gives the victims precious time to survive. ”

"The first 15 minutes after you're buried in an avalanche are the best time to survive. If you can get out of trouble during this time, then the survival rate will be as high as 90%. After 30 minutes, the survival rate is only 20%, and once it exceeds an hour, you can only wait for the search and rescue team to help you collect the body. ”

In his opinion, avalanches are basically the same as quicksand, they do not make people die immediately, but slowly devour life little by little, and if a single person is in distress, the probability of survival is very low. With his current physical attributes and knowledge and skills, he feels hopeless, let alone these audiences.

Swallowing his saliva, Ye Xuan continued: "Of course, the key to whether you can get out of danger lies in the scale of the avalanche. If it's that kind of huge avalanche, even if the search and rescue team is around, it won't be of much use. ”

Hearing him say this, the audience in the live broadcast room launched a barrage one after another.

"In other words, a person can only wait for death in an avalanche?"

"You can feel the cold in this place through the screen. ”

"Do you think the patriarch can anal a black bear?"

"Do you know how powerful a black bear's palm is?"

"I think it's five or five. ”

"What? I swear by UU, I didn't open it...... I'm sorry to go to the wrong set. ”

"I'll give you a backhand...... Past CDs. ”

"Second battalion commander......! Noodles are served for friendly forces to taste. ”

"Good boy, you gangsters are starting again?"

Stopping, Ye Xuan pulled off his jacket and took out the kettle in his arms.

After taking a small sip, the cold and biting fresh water suddenly slid down his throat all the way to his stomach, and he couldn't help but shiver from the cold.

After forcibly taking a few sips, Ye Xuan stuffed the kettle into his arms again, then closed the zipper and continued to hurry, while saying in his mouth: "I found that many viewers have a misunderstanding, they think that in this environment, there is no need to drink water. In fact, the opposite is true, because the body consumes more fresh water than usual because of the constant exercise. ”

"Another thing to note is that you don't eat snow directly. If you're in the city, it's okay to take a few bites of snow, but not here. When snow melts in the mouth, it absorbs a lot of heat from the body, causing a drop in core body temperature, and it can also frostbite the mouth and lips. The best thing to do is to stuff the snow into a kettle and store it close to you, like I did. Use the heat from your body to melt the snow in the kettle. ”

Due to the influence of the Arctic Circle, the daylight hours here are very short, saying that it is 8 hours, but in reality it is less than 5 hours.

After continuing to walk for more than an hour, he raised his head and looked at the sun that was getting lower and lower, and he frowned: "The current Arctic Circle is in the polar night, although this is only the outer part of the Arctic Circle, but it is still somewhat affected, resulting in a short daylight time. It looks like it will be completely dark in an hour at most. ”

"I had to get the shelter done as soon as possible before it got dark. Walking on the vast ice field, Ye Xuan said to the live broadcast camera: "In the Arctic Circle, it is impossible to build a shelter like in the jungle. When the sun sets, the temperature drops rapidly to minus 25 degrees Celsius, and by midnight, it can even reach minus 35 degrees Celsius. I now need to find a leeward slope and dig a snow cave to serve as shelter. ”

As he spoke, he began to look around, looking for a leeward slope.

In fact, it is easy to build a shelter here, there is a thick layer of snow everywhere as a material, you just need to find a leeward slope and dig a snow hole. There are no tricks to speak of, simple and practical.

While searching, he explained: "I saw a lot of spectators asking me what snow caves could be used for warmth. In fact, the principle is very simple, first of all, the ice and snow are impermeable to the wind, which can completely block the invasion of the cold wind. Secondly, ice is a poor conductor of heat, which can perfectly block the heat dissipation, which causes the hot air in the snow cave to not be conducted, and can only stay in the snow cave. In the middle of the night, when it is minus 50 degrees Celsius, the snow inside the cave can stay around -10 degrees Celsius. You will still feel cold, but you will not freeze to death. ”

As he spoke, Ye Xuan had already come to the back of a snowy slope. After visually measuring the area and height of the slope, he smiled and said, "This slope is good, and it just serves as a shelter." ”

After putting down his backpack, he moved his hands and then quickly dug like a groundhog.

The snow on the slopes is relatively soft and easy to dig into. In less than ten minutes, he dug a one-meter-long passage that led straight into the interior of the slope. Then he began to build his shelter for the night.

After about half an hour, the shelter was all in order. It is said to be a shelter, but in fact it is just a narrow space dug up above the passage. Two meters long and less than a meter high, he could barely curl up and lie down.

Pointing to the passage below, he explained: "Whether it is an igloo or a snow cave, the passage must be lower than the room, because the cold air sinks and the hot air rises, and according to this principle, the cold air in the snow cave sinks into the passage and the internal temperature rises. ”

Pressing the surrounding snow walls with his hands, the interior space suddenly became more spacious, and then he used the dug snow to seal the exit of the passage, leaving only a gap to keep the air circulating. After doing this, the snow cave suddenly fell into darkness. With the light of his mobile phone, Ye Xuan found a comfortable position to lie down, and said with a smile: "The effect is immediate, you can clearly feel that the snow cave is warmer than outside." At night, it was warm enough to freeze people to death, but I was able to sleep soundly. ”

"Okay, that's the end of today's live broadcast. Ladies and gentlemen, we'll see you tomorrow. ”

Hearing him say that he was going to turn off the live broadcast and sleep, the audience in the live broadcast room suddenly stopped. Since the start of the broadcast today, it has only been four or five hours, which is not enjoyable at all.

"God, sleep, it's only a little bit. ”

"Sleep, you're paralyzed!"

"With all due respect, I can't really associate this kind of snow cave with the word warm. ”

"Don't sleep, patriarch, take us to see the aurora at night. ”

"You have to be able to fall asleep, Lao Tzu brushed 100 rockets!"

"666, my brother is too grumpy. ”

"Brothers, don't worry, I bet on a pack of spicy strips, and the patriarch can't sleep on the cliff. ”

The main thing is that in the current environment, there is nothing to broadcast live. Therefore, Ye Xuan ignored the audience's retention, directly closed the live broadcast, and after packing up his things, the whole person curled up in a ball and forced himself to sleep.
