Bai Yu and Mo Beichen even took people out again under the cover of night and didn't come back until midnight.
Afraid that the smell of blood would attract something bad, a few people braved the heavy snow and finished processing the prey by the stream before returning.
Fortunately, Shen Xingwan and the others were in the cave and boiled hot water.
When we came back, each of us drank from a bamboo tube and roasted for a while before the fire slowed down.
It is obvious that the temperature tonight is even lower than last night, and the heavy snow outside shows no signs of stopping.
While warming himself by the fire, Bai Yu couldn't help but say, "With such heavy snow, I wonder if the group of fish dragon guards have withdrawn."
Mingyi rolled his eyes at him and said, "Stop dreaming. I won't give up until I achieve my goal."
"With such heavy snow, it won't be easy for them to spend time with us on the mountain..."
"The thought of them being uncomfortable makes me comfortable."
Mo Beichen looked at the meat and chopped furs piled aside, and began to divide the tasks, "Everyone divides the work, some of them are processing the furs, and some of them are roasting the meat. They must be finished tonight."
Food and warm fur are what they need to get out of this endless mountain alive.
They don't know when the snow will stop, so they must be more prepared.
Fortunately, I had collected a lot of firewood during the day and had built two fires in the cave.
Conditions were limited, a fire was used to dry the grease on the fur, and a fire was used to dry the meat of the prey.
Fat Cat was sent out by Shen Xingwan. Shen Xingwan asked him to explore the path along the stream and make sure he could get back before dawn.
She was injured and fell asleep in a daze in the middle of the night.
When I woke up, seven or eight pieces of fur had been simply processed. After drying, I used a knife to scrape off the grease.
The meat is almost done.
Everyone is making breakfast.
The fat cat is also back and is warming his fur by the fire.
Shen Xingwan, "How is the situation?"
Fat Meow, "I tried my best to run far away, but I saw a lake at the end of the stream."
It seemed that her judgment was correct. It was best for them to walk along the stream.
Shen Xingwan distributed the oil from the cedar tree to everyone and asked everyone to rub it on their bodies. Another person gave some orchids to put on their bodies.
After breakfast, the fire in the cave was put out, and a group of people started to set off despite the light snow.
We started walking along the stream and didn't dare to stop.
When you are thirsty, you drink water from the stream; when you are hungry, you eat dried meat.
Several simple fur coats were worn in turn.
After walking like this for a day, the snow became heavier and heavier.
At night, I couldn't bear it anymore and looked for a place with leeward wind to rest.
This time I was not so lucky to encounter a cave.
Shen Xing's teeth started to tremble in the cold at night, and Bai Yu said, "The weather is too cold, we must light up the fire, otherwise we will never be able to withstand it at night."
Mo Beichen made a quick decision, "Sheng."
If it is found, it will be God's will, and there will only be a battle.
The secret guard's mobility was still strong, and he quickly found firewood.
When the fire came up, one of the big men put down the hollow stone that could be used to make fish soup that he had been holding, "Hey, wait while I catch some fish to make soup to warm myself up."
The night passed like this, and everyone continued to walk through the heavy snow at dawn.
After walking like this for three whole days, the view finally broadened.
Shen Ruoyan said excitedly, "Look ahead!"
Shen Xingwan had a pale face and looked ahead. At the end of the stream was a lake between two mountains.
"Finally came out."
"This damn mountain looks like it has no end in sight."
The more such a place is, the more dangerous it is. Mo Beichen looked at the lake for a while and said, "We must make rafts and bamboo rafts. We must get out of here as soon as possible."
It is dangerous to stay on the shore for a second longer. If you are found, you will be in trouble.
Those who chop bamboo chop bamboo, and those who chop wood chop wood.
Only Shen Xingwan was sitting under the big tree without moving. Her condition was not good.
The injury on my shoulder was not serious to begin with, and after walking in the snow for another three days, I was almost at the limit.
Shen Ruoyan looked at her bloodless face worriedly, "Are you okay?"
Shen Xingwan reluctantly told her, "Don't worry about me, just go and do your business."
I was busy until dark, lighting the fire and continuing to work. It was not until midnight that I finished seven or eight rafts and built a roof for the rafts with bamboo leaves and bamboo.
The snow has been falling continuously, and it's not easy to have no shelter when you get into the water.
Daqi has ushered in the coldest winter in ten years. It snowed for several days and nights, and the mountains were almost sealed by heavy snow.
A group of fish dragon guards, braving the wind and snow, looking for people in the vast mountains is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and they themselves are not in trouble.
"Boss, with such heavy snow, I would have frozen to death in the mountains."
"It's also possible that it was eaten by a large wild animal."
"How can there be no trace at all? It's impossible."
This snow has brought them unprecedented challenges, and no one knows when they will be able to find someone like this.
The man in the lead said with a cold face, "There is no order from above to evacuate, so we absolutely cannot evacuate."
The Fish Dragon Guard follows a model of absolute obedience to orders. If they retreat without permission, what awaits them when they return is a punishment worse than death.
"Find a place to have a good rest tonight."
After staying in the mountains for so many days under heavy snow, they were also tired.
On Shen Xingwan's side, they made do with the ground by the lake all night, waiting for the sky to get slightly brighter.
The finished raft was lowered into the water, and everyone got on the raft.
Shen Xingwan and Shen Mu rafted together, and Mo Beichen and Bai Yu were also there.
In addition to using poles made of bamboo poles to control the general direction, there is basically no need to paddle and the raft can just drift with the water.
No one knows where the lake here leads, so they choose to save their energy and go with the flow.
Shen Xingwan was wrapped in a big fur and leaned against Shen Ruoyan.
Her consciousness gradually began to blur, and Shen Ruoyan called her after a while, "Wake up tonight, I can't sleep now."
There is nothing on the water. It would be very dangerous for Shen Xingwan to fall asleep in his current situation.
Shen Xingwan also tried hard to stay awake, and in the end he even started to pinch his thighs and palms hard.
The dried meat she brought was so wet and cold that she couldn't chew it at all.
Seeing her looking like she was about to die, Fat Meow jumped into the water anxiously.
Soon he came out with a fish in his mouth and tugged at Shen Xingwan's trousers.
Shen Xingwan said weakly, "Ruoyan, help me process the fish and cut it into pieces."
Shen Ruoyan squatted on the raft and quickly processed the fish with a knife.
I fed Shen Xingwan one piece.
The fish Fat Meow is looking for are good fish, and the wild fish raised in the lake are pollution-free and pollution-free.
It doesn't taste fishy at all, but has a slight sweetness, which is not very fresh.
Shen Xingwan ate several slices in a row, and Shen Ruoyan asked curiously, "Is it that delicious?"
I also tasted a slice and it was really delicious.
I told everyone immediately, so everyone unlocked a new way to eat raw fish and started eating raw fish one after another.
In this way, I floated along the river for several days.
Mo Beichen suddenly touched the sword at his hand in alarm, "Alert, there is someone ahead!"
