Walking through the snow and ice of the permafrost soil is more strenuous than you think.

Especially when passing through areas where the snow is waist-deep, the person in charge of opening the road must clear the snow in front of him and squeeze out a snow run, which is naturally not fast.

Seeing Feng Ying, who volunteered to open the way, squeezing there like a bull, Hayatta called her to the back with a headache and opened the way herself.

"If you look closely at the surface of the snow, the texture is different, try to avoid areas of fresh snow with soft snow and low-lying areas, which can easily sink in.

Even if you take a long detour for this, it's fine, which will save more effort.

The way to get down is also particular, don't step straight down, lean your calves forward a little, use the front of your calves and knees to support, and if necessary, you can lie down so that you don't sink too deep. ”

Hayatta taught as she went.

These experiences were all learned and accumulated in Pokai Village, and they were useless for many years, but they still remember them firmly.

Gordon asked Feng Ying a little puzzled, "You said that you haven't been here for a day or two, it's been almost two months, why haven't you even learned how to move in the snow?" ”

Feng Ying said aggrievedly: "Most of the time, we help build in the Yuechen stronghold, cutting trees and digging soil or something."

Even if he goes out to collect important supplies, he will take a sled, and the place where he has to walk is where Jean leads the way, so he will not be as detailed as Sister Hayatta explained."

"Must someone explain? Don't you see with your eyes and think with your head? It's been all these days, and you don't even know that the blindfolds on your armor are used to prevent snow blindness? Anhill rebuked mercilessly.

"Woo - my brain hurts from the cold, and my brain can't turn up." Feng Ying hugged her head and was aggrieved.

Gordon Anhill looked at each other helplessly, this guy pretended to be pitiful but always had a hand.

Actually, it's not just Fengying.

Most of the members of the team had little experience of surviving in extreme cold areas, and after entering the snow from the ice, they all behaved in a state of embarrassment.

The snow and dust that fell into the seams of their clothes alone made them very uncomfortable.

To survive in this world of ice and snow, they still have so much to learn and adapt.

Walk across the frozen sea, and through the snow forest with difficulty.

After several hours of trekking, the Yuechen stronghold at the destination of this trip finally appeared in front of the large army.

The team disbanded, and under the guidance of the builders, the crowd dispersed into the stronghold.

Gordon and the others were still wandering around the edge of the colony.

"No fence fences? It's not safe enough after all. Anhill's brow furrowed as he looked at the sharp wooden stakes that were staggered and pointed outwards on the ground.

"It's not that there aren't enough people." Feng Ying explained, "Our first step is to build a house to protect against the cold, and the fortifications will use these wooden stakes to top it first, and arrange people to keep vigil at night."

But now that the army is here, the next step should be to expand and erect the wall. ”

"Don't ask so much, it's only been less than two months." Gordon patted Anhill on the back.

"Yes." Anhill nodded, he was just a little worried about the safety of the Fufu family.

"Don't you think it's much warmer here?" Gail suddenly spoke, "There is also little snow in the stronghold, and it is very clean. ”

"Hee-hee, did you find out? Guess what? "Feng Ying's sale to the present level finally can't hold back.

Hayatta looked left and right, and said with a smile: "It's a hot spring, the Yuechen stronghold should be built on the edge of a large hot spring."

The heat of the hot springs melts the snow and ice, and the snow melts along with the hot springs and does not accumulate on the higher ground.

The northwest side is backed by mountains, which not only blocks the wind and snow from the north, but also prevents monsters from invading from that direction, which is a wonderful location. ”

“.”

Feng Ying, who couldn't get it, choked for a few seconds and muttered uncomfortably, "How do you feel like you know better than I know."

Hayatta glanced at her with a smile, "Because Pokai Village is like this, this Yuechen stronghold is actually very similar to Pokai Village."

As long as a fence is built to protect the flatter south and east sides, it will be a stronghold.

Hey? There are also different places, is the residential area over there built underground? ”

Hearing Hayatta say this, Feng Ying immediately became excited again, "Yes, yes! Come here, I'll take you to live first!

Although there are no luxurious large rooms, the living conditions here are not bad! ”

Due to the arrival of large troops, the living quarters were slightly crowded, but there was still a lot of space reserved, and with so many people, more rooms could soon be opened up and built.

The residential area is very warm, and the temperature can even reach about 20 degrees.

Mrs. Stirling, who had arrived early by sleigh, had already settled in early.

Wrapped in a ball, Fufu was finally able to take off her thick clothes and was running happily all over the ground.

Due to the limited resources of the Moon Stronghold, it is certainly impossible to build a luxurious residence such as a grand hut in the residential area like the one on the Stellar Stronghold.

The living quarters are all standard rooms that can accommodate two or three people, which is not very spacious, but it has nothing to do with "hardship".

In the hot basement house, Gordon and the others untied their cloaks to protect them from the cold.

Feng Ying also took off her fluffy hat, crossed her waist and said proudly, "How is it?" I didn't expect such a warm room in the ice and snow! ”

"I really didn't expect it." Hayatta was really surprised.

In the village of Pokey, the temperature in the village is not too low, but it is still hovering around freezing, and the houses must be lit by fires to live in.

But here, there are not many stoves, but they are much warmer.

"It's because!"

"Because of the geothermal heat of the hot springs."

Anhill crouched down, took off his gloves and stroked the ground, "Dig a hole in the ground so that the ground is closer to the hot spring underground, and the temperature can rise through the ground."

The top of the hole is then sealed with timber to form the house.

The semi-underground houses built in this way are warm and strong, saving building materials, and the speed of construction is relatively fast.

The only difficulty is to accurately determine the depth of the hot spring, if the digging is shallow, the heat will not come up, and if the digging is deep, the hot spring will be dug out directly.

The handiwork of the technical class leader? The investigation team should have this ability for that old man.

Oh yes, Master Wilderness also came with the first batch of construction teams, and it should be her credit for exploring the location of the hot springs? ”

Feng Ying's face turned green, she was sold for nothing.

How do you know everything? So what else can I say?!

Gail looked at her pitifully, glanced at Anhill reproachfully, and reached out to grab Fufu who was running around, "So there's a hot spring here?" Can I soak in the hot springs here in the moon?

Fufu had not taken a shower on the boat for almost half a month and was going to cover the smell, so she was taken to wash it. ”

"Hmm," Feng Ying pointed northwest with a lack of interest, "the hot spring is over there, listen to what they say, and then the assembly hall will be built on the hot spring."

After it was built, the assembly hall of the Yuechen stronghold was not a 'meeting hall tavern', but a 'meeting house bathhouse'. ”

Gordon grinned.

It's a little strange to take on tasks in a bathhouse, but it's not uncommon to encounter such strange things.

Isn't that the case in Yuyun Village?

Putting down the waterproof leather backpack, Gordon reached out and patted the back of Feng Ying's head, "Don't be bitter, where is the cafeteria?" I went to eat, and everyone who walked this way was hungry. ”

Hearing about eating, Feng Ying's mood improved again.

"Hee-hee~, then we have to hurry, Grandma Cat's stew is super delicious, it's gone if it's late!"
