In order to survive the later stage smoothly, 20 kilograms of prey per day is Bi Fang's goal.

It's been less than half a month since the arrival of the eternal night, barely fifteen days, and there is a possibility of another blizzard, and all other unexpected factors will be combined with the construction of shelters, and the number of days to actually come out hunting and harvest may only be a week.

An adult healthy man eats about three pounds of food a day, 45 kilograms a month, and at least 135 kilograms in three months.

In the Arctic, the demand is even greater.

A reserve of about 150 kilograms of food is relatively safe.

The two puffins plucked their feathers, and the combined weight may be less than eight catties, that is, four kilograms, and less than a quarter of today's task has been completed.

[It's too hard, isn't it?] Twenty kilograms, the amount of meat I can't eat in a month]

[You didn't eat meat as a meal]

[Not all of them can be eaten, such as bone meat, and lean meat, eating lean meat in the Arctic is completely a loss-making business, right? ] 】

[I finally understand why Fang Shen was not bitten by a shark when he was surviving in the sea, his feelings were too lean, and he was easy to starve to death if he ate too much (funny)]

Walking along the riverbank, the snow is often dug up to see what is going on underneath the snow.

When the frequency of moss on the ground increased significantly, Bi Fang knew that he was not going in the wrong direction.

"Under the influence of the rotation of the earth, there is a prevailing wind trend throughout the world, which means that most of the time, the wind is blowing in one direction."

"In Greenland, under the influence of the pressure zone and the prevailing wind belt, the wind direction is blowing from west to east, isn't someone looking at the weather forecast? You can take a look at the weather forecast for the last week to see if it's all westerly, and if not, it's all southwest and northwest. ”

A few more curious sailors immediately quit the live broadcast, searched for the weather forecast in Greenland, and found that this was indeed the case.

In the past week, and the week to come, more than half of the wind has been from the west, with the rest being southwesterly and a few northwesterly, with the main wind direction being westerly.

【Absolutely】

[Awesome]

[What should I do if I don't know the direction of the wind? 】

"It's okay if you can't tell the direction of the wind in your location by geography and climate, look at the snow ridge." Bi Fang pointed to the high snow ridge on the snowfield in the distance.

Snow is more sticky than sand, but it can also form dune-like snow dunes when the wind is in the wind.

Under the action of the prevailing wind, the snow ridges on the snow hills, without exception, are neatly facing Bi Fang, which also means that Bi Fang is at the downwind outlet at this time.

"The direction I walk in is not random, on the one hand, I want to follow the river, and on the other hand, I want to follow the direction of the wind."

The downwind is naturally bad for catching animals, but it is a huge help for finding the forest.

"Do you remember what I said before, it is very difficult for small islands with a certain area in the sea to grow trees, most of them are shrubs, because the wind is too strong at sea, and the small saplings will be blown off by the wind before they can be bought."

"It's the same with the Arctic, if you want to grow forests in a place, it has to be valleys, and with mountains to cut off the air flow, trees can grow properly."

"We follow the direction of the wind, and if even a short ridge can appear to block the strong wind, coupled with living water, and turn over, it is very likely that there will be a forest."

[Which one is theoretically okay to go against the wind, right? ] 】

[If it is reversed, the river and the wind direction are inconsistent, and there is one less of the two conditions]

[Oh, I remembered]

"Actually, I saw a bulging hill here before I set out in the morning, and now we're walking in its direction, I don't know if we'll be able to get there before dark."

Half an hour later, a low mountain appeared, confirming that Bi Fang's choice was very correct, and that it was closer than he had previously guessed.

Bi Fang was excited to climb over this low mountain, there must be a forest behind the mountain, he thought to himself.

Greenland's wildlife management system is excellent, and every year people with hunting permits come here to hunt reindeer and Arctic musk oxen through a variety of channels, which is the main target of hunters to hunt here.

Everything is enough to prove that there are not many large animals in the Arctic, and if there are few, they will not be able to support a giant carnivore like a polar bear.

"But we have one more thing to do before we get there."

Bi Fang looked at the slanting sun in the distance, this time it was not the highest point of today's sun rise, but moved back a little further, but it happened to be the highest point of temperature, warmer than yesterday, maybe above minus 20 degrees.

He began to undress, taking off his coat one by one, and was still in the snow after that.

"Because it's a headwind, if I turn over, the smell on my body is likely to alert the animals, so I'm going to take a bath and take a snow bath before that."

"Believe me, the snow bath works quite well, and the porous structure of the snowflakes makes it a very absorbent material that can effectively remove odors."

After saying this, Bi Fang's shirt was already stripped naked, and he began to untie his pants.

The skin was completely exposed to the cold air, and under the intense stimulation, the capillaries began to flow faster, and soon Bi Fang's upper body became slightly red, like a flush after drunkenness.

[Hiss, take a bath? 】

[Speaking of which, Lao Fang did not take a bath for a week (dog head)]

[The body is pickled and tasted, it belongs to yes]

[Washing once a week in winter is a normal frequency, right? Not to mention the North Pole (sweating)]

"Cherish this time, wait until the polar night, the temperature will be lower, and it will not be easy to find a suitable temperature to take a bath."

"Even though it's in the Arctic, when the temperature and weather allow, take a shower and bask in the sun, UV rays and clean air have a miraculous effect on the skin, body and spirit."

Bi Fang took off his last piece of clothing, buried it in the snow, and threw himself into the snow with only a pair of shorts left on his body, crawling and rolling around.

In the face of a cold environment, the human body will do it in a short period of time, by consuming glycogen in the body, and through the dilated capillaries to provide a large amount of heat.

During this process, a short exposure to the cold environment not only does not feel cold, but has a hearty feeling.

Bi Fang grabbed a puff of snow, carefully wiped his body, and wiped his skin red, and a refreshing feeling no less than taking a bath appeared.

And at this moment, exposed to the sun, only if there is no wind, Bi Fang can even feel a trace of warmth.

Ten minutes later, his body finally began to feel the cold, and Bi Fang immediately crawled out of the snow, scattered the snowflakes that adhered to his body, dug out the clothes that had just been buried in the snow, and put them back on one by one from the inside out.

"It's as easy as washing away the tiredness." The corners of Bi Fang's eyebrows flew.
