Chapter 270: Bear in the Birch Forest
They usually build a cellar under a log cabin in the woods, which stores enough food for a winter, and then they don't go out of the house this winter, and they eat, drink, and lazar all in the house. This primitive tradition has not changed to this day.
"Master, did this icy old 'hairy' man kick his head with a donkey? If you don't come in summer, you have to come in winter? Is this a place where people come?" Lan Caidie didn't suffer this sin, and kept nagging in her mouth.
Ma Ya has lived in the mountains since she was a child, so she has long been accustomed to this kind of life, she walked with the colorful butterflies, and when she walked by, she found that there were dry branches and the like, and collected them all.
"Tiantian, we're all going to freeze to death, do you still have the heart to pick these up?"
"Sister Caidie, you don't understand, when we arrive at the stronghold in a while, we won't be able to stay for a minute without firewood, the Russians said, we have to wait here for three days before their expedition team can join us, how can we spend it if we don't prepare some firewood?"
Lan Caidie froze and didn't have the heart to listen to her talk about the joy of life, so she pouted and said, "It seems that I'm still redundant, or you two will have to live a small life here?"
They can now see a clear boundary monument not far away, with the Chinese flag printed on it. This is a triangular monument, and naturally the other two sides correspond to the border between 'Mongolia' and Russia.
The Siberian side of Russia is full of ice fields and snow, and the terrain is relatively high, and many of the trees that inhabit the hills have long since lost their leaves and entered the hibernation stage. It was a birch forest, and the forest was so desolate that there was not even a grain to eat.
"Everyone insists that the stronghold should be behind this forest, and we will have food over there. Wushuang cheered up the two girls.
Unconsciously, the sky gradually darkened, and the faces of the people blown by the cold current from Siberia were like knives, and they did not even want to say a word. The blue butterfly has weak skin, and its frozen little ears are red.
Suddenly, at this time, there was a roar of a wild beast in the depths of the birch forest, and the roar was earth-shattering, and the frightened Wushuang quickly stopped them.
Ma Ya is used to living in the mountains, and was born in a family that knows how to distinguish beasts. She said the roar was a blind bear.
"Hurry up, hurry up, go! None of the three of us have guns, and if we are caught by that big guy, we will have to be torn up for dinner!" Wushuang dragged the colorful butterfly and ran forward desperately, but this birch forest seemed to be endless, and no matter how he walked, he couldn't go to the end, and the roar of the blind bear was getting closer and closer.
But this is not flat land after all, the three of them have been running in the snow for an hour, and there is not much body left, and the two feet fall into the knee-deep snow and then pull it out, which may be a wonderful feeling in the eyes of southerners, but it is also as difficult to walk as if they are stuck in a quagmire. It's already sweaty now.
"Brother, we can't run, it's not a way to run like this, if the blind bear really pounces on us after a while, we don't even have the ability to resist. "The girl in the mountains knows a lot, and it is at this time that her important 'sex' is revealed.
"Then what should we do? you can't let us sit and wait for death, right?" asked Lan Caidie.
"Yes, just sit here and wait, but not wait for death. Let's quickly clear a dry area, and then split up to collect dry wood nearby, the beasts are afraid of fire, as long as we are around the campfire, they dare not pounce. "This is a good idea, but it is the wisest choice for the three of them now, and if you are not sure how far the stronghold is, if you blindly run will only make the blind bear chase closer and closer, it is better to sit and wait to save your body.
But the question is how long can this firewood last? If once the guy comes up after a while, and the firewood only lasts a few hours, then the bonfire will be extinguished...... Therefore, the three of them had to gather all the dry branches in the forest that they could pick up before the big guy came after him.
The snow is very easy to clean, it is all clear snow, and there is a large area with a hand support, and the three of them swept out a dry area of more than ten square meters, and then began to disperse to look for firewood. Fortunately, they all brought knives, and although there were not many branches on the ground, they could always cut down the slightly lower branches.
They were tired and almost collapsed, and the recovered firewood was also piled up into a small mountain, just when Wushuang and Lan Caidie were optimistic, only Ma Ya knew that the firewood in the mountain was high in oil, and if it burned, this firewood would not last until the next morning.
But it was too late, and in the darkness deep in the woods, the big creature had already 'revealed' a pair of greedy eyes and his low roar.
The fire suddenly lit up, and in an instant, the warmth hit, and the three of them lay flat in front of the fire, sweating and panting heavily. If you look at the form in front of you, they are already safe.
"Wow...... It's so big!" The blind bear rushed out of the forest in a rage, this guy's breed seems to be a little different from the bear in the northeast of our country, it is larger than the ordinary bear blind man, and it is covered with brown 'color' 'hair' hair, this is a dog bear, not a blind bear.
The big dog bear grinned and ran to the prey and stopped, the fire in front of it was so bright that it hurriedly retreated and hid about twenty meters away. The big guy was panting, the corners of his mouth were bloodstained, and he didn't know what he had just eaten, but it was obviously not full yet.
"Girl, don't bears want to hibernate in winter? Why doesn't this guy go find a tree 'hole' to sleep in?" Wushuang asked.
"Bears don't hibernate because they're frightened or don't have enough food for the winter. Ma Ya explained to him.
"You see the corners of its mouth are full of blood, it should have eaten it, why did it come to us?" Lan Caidie didn't feel too scared, she hadn't seen this play, don't look at it from childhood to adulthood, but she was a child who grew up in the city, and watching bears can only be seen in zoos and TV, she doesn't know how ferocious this big guy is.
"Brother, you can see clearly, you see that there seems to be cloth in the blood stains on the corner of its mouth, it must have eaten people just now, it is estimated that someone 'provoked' it. Ma Ya said.
The three of them were safe for the time being, but they hadn't eaten for a tiring day, and their stomachs were grumbling with hunger, so they hurriedly took out bread and ham from their backpacks and nibbled on them. In this kind of ghost weather, the temperature around you is warmer and you can drink a little warmer, and people will start to get sleepy after they have eaten enough. The three of them didn't dare to rush up for a while when they saw the big bear, so they discussed being on duty in turn and watching the bonfire to let their companions rest.
Wushuang is a man, and he is on the first shift. The two 'girl' children wrapped themselves tightly in their military coats and lay down in front of the campfire, and soon fell asleep.
