Chapter 326: Volcanic Hot Springs
In the middle of the night, why did you walk so far alone in this snow-covered dense forest?
Zhang Xuebing and Xiong Zhan couldn't help but sweat all over their bodies, blown by the cold wind, as if they had a layer of frost on their faces, compared to Santa Claus.
The two glanced at each other, but they didn't feel funny, but felt even more weird and terrifying.
"Boss, it's not a way to find it like this, I think it's better to go back to the car, and wait until dawn to find it!" Xiong Zhan said as he rubbed his cheeks, which were about to freeze.
】
Zhang Xuebing groaned and said in a deep voice, "We can't throw him down, we must find him, and even if it is after dawn, let's come out to look for him, I'm afraid he will be even farther away!" ”
Xiong Zhan knew that this was the truth, so he had no choice but to continue to open the way in front, following the footprints left by Jiaomu Jiao, and chased all the way.
Time passed like a white horse, and the two of them stared at the footprints and refused to give up, trekking all the way from the snow-covered forest path, and they didn't know how long they had been looking for it.
Until a ray of sky light was revealed overhead, Zhang Xuebing immediately turned off the flashlight, and found that the visibility around him had improved a lot, and when he looked down at his watch, he found that the two of them had been tracking for half the night, and the sky was already dark.
Walking on the snow was particularly strenuous, Xiong Zhan's physical strength was fine, but Zhang Xuebing felt tired, hungry, and thirsty, and leaned on a big tree with weak legs.
"Old bear, it's dawn and the meeting is over!"
Xiong Zhan also gasped and stopped, took out a bottle of liquor from his arms, unscrewed the lid and handed it to Zhang Xuebing.
"Drink and warm up!"
For safety, the two of them brought everything they could with them, including liquor.
Fortunately, thanks to this bottle of wine, the cold was dispelled and warmed up in the middle of the night, otherwise Zhang Xuebing really doubted that he would be frozen.
Taking the white wine bottle, he took a sip and handed it to Xiong Zhan.
"The old horn is not a three-year-old child, and he hit an evil in the middle of the night?" Zhang Xuebing complained with hot air.
Xiong Zhan also took a sip and said with a wry smile.
"Did he get sick from the Screw Country......
Hearing this, Zhang Xuebing was thrilled, and couldn't help but think of the disaster thirty years later.
He shook his head to clear the messy thoughts and said in a deep voice.
"We can't go on like this, wait until nine o'clock when the sky is bright, let's go back, maybe we can get back to the car before dark, if we freeze from the ice and snow for another night, I'm afraid we will die!"
Xiong Zhan knew that this was the truth, after all, they were not local natives, and their ability to protect against cold and frost was poor, although saving people was important, but their own lives were more important.
"Boss listen to you, find another two hours to go back, we can be regarded as benevolent!"
After resting for ten minutes, the two ate some jerky and white wine, and began the arduous trek again.
At this time, they found that the path had become downhill, and the slope was relatively steep.
The two of them had the impression that the road they came on was uphill all the way, and then it was a flat road, and they had never encountered a downhill slope at all, so it was very likely that they were now close to the Great Lake.
Of course, there is also a possibility that they climbed over the hill to the edge of the woods on the other side.
It's just that I can't see the sun outside at the moment, and I can't tell the direction at all, so I can only guess blindly.
The two glanced at each other and immediately quickened their pace.
It didn't take long for the light in front of me to become more and more abundant, and a red sun gradually appeared in the air.
The warm sun shone on their bodies, and the two of them suddenly came to their senses and trot all the way downhill.
After a while, I walked out of the forest, and suddenly a large snowfield appeared, and a black belt-like road appeared near the distant horizon.
Oh my God, it's finally out!
Standing at the edge of the forest, both of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Zhang Xuebing pointed to the footprints under his feet and said, "Since Jiaomu Jiao walked out of the forest, why did he still move forward, what did he encounter?" ”
Xiong Zhan definitely didn't know the answer, and pointed to the direction where the path extended.
"Let's work harder, I guess we can catch up with him!"
At this moment, Zhang Xuebing also made up his mind, since he went out of the forest, he could meet people, this side is so close to the border, and the language must be interoperable, it is not a problem to find someone to inquire, or to rest and replenish supplies, and even get gasoline.
So their endurance has improved a lot, so they decided to find Jiaomu Jiao with peace of mind.
Xiong Zhan grabbed a handful of clean snow, swallowed it in his mouth, and swallowed it when it melted.
"In my hometown, I look forward to the snow every winter, but it doesn't fall, it's good to be here, and I look forward to stopping it!"
Zhang Xuebing walked hard from the snow, looking down at the footprints left by Jiaomujiao, "This is called life, the more you want to get, the more you can't get it, what you don't want, but you desperately pounce on your body!" ”
Xiong Zhan smiled, "For example, your money!" ”
Zhang Xuebing was amused, stopped and said, "My only dream in this life is to make money, make a lot of money!" ”
The two chatted first, and when they walked out of the edge of the forest, they found that the footprints were no longer going downhill, but walking towards a small hill in the shape of steamed buns.
Zhang Xuebing was shielded from the dazzling sunlight, looked over there, and found that in addition to the small hill mound, there was a large area of various hills over there.
The largest of them is several hundred meters high, cone-shaped, and the top of the mountain is covered with snow, and from the middle of the mountain there is a large area of the mountain that leaks bare.
It is clear that the snow on these mountains has mostly melted.
With experience, Zhang Xuebing determined that the area in front of him should be a volcano.
If you look closely, there are really wisps of heat coming out of the middle of several of the mountain bags, lingering on these hills, making this hill look like a steamed bun that has just come out of the pot.
Zhang Xuebing pointed over there and said, "What is he doing over there, can't he stand the cold?" ”
Xiong Zhan also learned from Zhang Xuebing and said in the sun, "It was the middle of the night at that time, and he couldn't see the volcano at all!" ”
Zhang Xuebing said, "Let's go, let's take a look, maybe there will be a hot spring!" ”
The two walked up the first hill through the snow.
Looking down condescendingly, the hill was clearer.
The mountains were different from the deep mountains they had just come out of, they were not covered with lush vegetation, and even if there were trees, they were sparse bushes.
Zhang Xuebing pointed to the footprints under his feet, "The old horn is heading for the biggest mountain!" ”
With that, he waved his hand and chased down the footprints.
It was easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, and with the snow under his feet, he almost slipped a few times.
Zhang Xuebing simply lay down on the hillside, and then rolled down the hillside.
The mountain is not too high, and a few wheels roll down the mountain.
Xiong Zhan also rolled down in the same way.
The two met at the foot of the mountain, and when they saw each other's appearances, they burst out laughing.
