Chapter 6: To the Deep Valley
In a hurry, Qin Fei thought of a strategy often used in the game, why don't you try to build a fire at the door of the carriage?
There was no time to think about it, Qin Fei immediately took out the wood and small branches in the backpack and stacked them at the door of the carriage.
At this time, the wolf's footsteps were also gradually approaching.
It was too late to make a fire normally, so he took out the accelerant that he had been keeping in his backpack and poured it on the wood.
Then he slid the match in his hand.
With the help of accelerants, even in cold temperatures, the fire can be raised in a short time.
In a matter of seconds, a faint flame appeared from the firewood. After a few moments, the fire gradually increased, and the door was completely blocked.
"Wang!"
At this time, the two gray wolves outside also came to the car door.
They stood outside on the snow, through the fire, and kept yelling at Qin Fei.
But whenever the two gray wolves were about to move forward, they would take a few steps back after approaching the fire at the door, apparently afraid of the fire in front of them, and did not dare to rush directly.
It worked!
Qin Fei was overjoyed in his heart, and his flustered mood stabilized slightly.
Although the two gray wolves didn't dare to step forward, they didn't want to leave just like that, they just stood outside the carriage, staring at Qin Fei, wandering back and forth on the snow.
No, we have to get rid of them as soon as possible!
Otherwise, if you run out of fuel, or if a strong wind suddenly blows, the fire will be extinguished. Both wolves will rush in at the same time.
You can't be their opponent when the time comes!
Thinking of this, Qin Fei squatted down, took out a smaller wooden strip from the fire on the ground, and held it in his hand, and this small wooden strip was still burning with flames.
After the two wolves saw Qin Fei's movements, their necks shrank and they took two steps back vigilantly.
But then they realized that the humans in front of them did not dare to cross the fire. Even with a torch in his hand, he didn't seem to be a threat to himself.
So they came up again, and they made a warning 'woo' sound.
After the two gray wolves got back together, Qin Fei saw the right time and threw out the wooden stick with fire in his hand.
The stick hit the body of one of the wolves. The animal's hair was flammable, and when it was hit by the burning stick, the gray wolf's hair was immediately blackened.
"嗷~嗷~嗷~......"
In an instant, the wolf fled in the snow as if it had lost its soul.
The hair on its body has not been burned much, and it can have this reaction, mainly because it is frightened by the fire.
Since the gray wolf was frightened, it kept running in the snow.... After a while, he moved away from the carriage where Qin Fei was and disappeared into the snow in the distance.
When the other gray wolf saw his companion's reaction, he also whined and fled.
"Whew!"
After the two gray wolves ran away completely, Qin Fei let out a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground all of a sudden. He noticed that his back was already soaking wet.
He was actually scared out of a cold sweat by these two gray wolves....
By this time, the wood in the fire was almost finished.
Although the gray wolf was scared away by the fire, he could still come back at any time.
Qin Fei took out the grease collected from the reindeer carcass yesterday from his backpack, wrapped it in cloth, and wrapped the cloth around a piece of wood.
In this way, a simple torch is complete.
This reindeer, which lives in the polar regions, has a very high heat content in its oil, and the torches made from this grease can burn for a long time.
Because of the fire, Qin Fei, who had been walking in the snow and whose body temperature had dropped to the left, warmed up all over his body.
With a torch in hand, he continued along the railroad tracks, walking fast for fear that the gray wolf would return.
Walking in the snow is actually very time-consuming, and it may take only an hour or two to complete the distance, but after changing to the snow, it will take a day to get there.
When Qin Fei was about to be exhausted, he finally walked to the entrance of the deep valley.
Near the entrance to the deep valley is the Carter Hydroelectric Dam.
Qin Fei planned to go to the periphery of the hydropower dam to see if there were any useful supplies.
The dam is surrounded by a barbed wire fence with a large unlocked iron gate.
Qin Fei opened the iron door and walked inside.
Naturally, he didn't dare to go inside the dam, because it was pitch black, and there was a gray wolf hidden in the game, Qin Fei didn't dare to bet that there must be no wolves in the dam in this world.
Although he didn't dare to go inside the dam, there were also a lot of supplies in the open space outside, and he planned to take some with him selectively.
In addition to a pile of scrap metal and old timber, there are also some old fishing nets and ropes on the ground.
Fishing nets and ropes weigh about two kilograms, and although they are heavy, they can be used in many places. After thinking about it for a moment, Qin Fei loaded it into his backpack.
At the entrance to the dam, Qin Fei unexpectedly found the carcass of a reindeer.
Around the corpse, there were also a few crow feathers. It seems that there is almost nothing left of the meat on the reindeer's body that has been eaten by the crows.
Only the corners of the reindeer carcass still had a mouthful or two of meat remaining.
Qin Fei tried to cut a few times with a knife.
But because the carcass of the reindeer was frozen too hard, the knife in his hand could not cut it at all.
After being fed by the crows, the reindeer really didn't have much meat left for Qin Fei.
Although Qin Fei could drag the reindeer carcass to a warm place, and then thaw it slowly, or directly light a fire in place to collect it.
But it's not really worth it for the sake of this bit of meat.
This meat couldn't even make up for the calories that Qin Fei had consumed.
Qin Fei directly ignored the reindeer corpse, and at the same time, he didn't forget to put the surrounding crow feathers into his backpack.
These feathers can be used to make bows and arrows. As the tail of the arrow, the feather can fix the flight path of the arrow, making it more stable during flight.
After searching for everything, Qin Fei picked up a few pieces of old wood and scrap iron from the ground and put them in his bag, until the backpack really couldn't fit it, he left here and walked towards the deep valley.
The current sky had gradually darkened, and Qin Fei had to find a place to spend the night.
According to his previous experience of playing this game, Qin Fei found a cave not far from the entrance. Although the cave is shallow, the temperature is much higher than the outside in the inner part of the cave.
Qin Fei looked at his state.
[Time: 90% during the day, cold value: 10%]
[Temperature: 3°C Perceived temperature: 14°C]
In this cave, the perceived temperature is positive, which means that your body temperature will not continue to drop.
After laying the sleeping bag on the ground, Qin Fei lit a fire on the outside of the hole.
There is a risk of starting a fire in the cave, and after falling asleep, burning the fire can cause the person to starve of oxygen and die in a coma.
On the fire, Qin Fei filled an empty iron can with a can of snow and placed it next to the fire to heat it.
Then he opened the canned sardines he had found earlier, and ate them with a handful of cattail stalks. The salt in the canned sardines was very heavy, which made Qin Fei suddenly have a great appetite.
He really hadn't tasted salt in a long time!
After eating these, there was only one bag of military rations left in Qin Fei's bag, and one bag of military rations could last about a day.
There were no houses in the deep valley, and there was hardly anything to eat.
Qin Fei had to get out of the deep valley as soon as possible, once the food ran out and he started starving, his physical strength would also drop rapidly, and weakness would make it even more difficult for him to find food.
After eating and drinking, Qin Fei fell asleep in this cave.
