With the help of two escape boards, Chen Xin successfully built a slope in front of the crawler tracks, allowing the front of the car to be raised, and the entire car to finally be able to drive upwards.

This time, Chen Xin did not hesitate or hesitate. He stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, letting the engine drive the tracks at maximum output, driving the entire vehicle directly into the snow in front, pushing against the thick snow, and rushed out. .

After rushing out of the surface, Chen Xin released the drone again and looked back to observe where he was buried.

What is left on the spot is a large hole about ten meters deep. With a little processing, it can even be used as an igloo for the Inuit people.

However, Chen Xin also noticed that although the big hole he left was more than ten meters deep, the height from the bottom to the ground was not very high, only about two or three meters high.

Perhaps this is the reason why Chen Xin was able to escape easily. After all, the weight of the snow only a few meters deep is not exaggerated. In addition, it is not frozen solid, so it is not impossible to push through.

Of course, this is not a depth that ordinary people or ordinary cars can easily escape from. A few meters of snow is enough to suffocate a person to death below, and ordinary cars will also have their air intakes blocked by snow. It cannot suck in air and cannot start, and if the horsepower is not enough, it cannot push through the snow a few meters behind.

Only an electric-driven vehicle like Chen Xin's, which has enough horsepower and enough friction provided by its tracks, can push through the snow a few meters behind and get out from under the snow.

Finally out of trouble, Chen Xin breathed a sigh of relief. He then readjusted the drone and observed the surrounding environment, trying to determine what the surrounding environment had become and how he should proceed next.

Because the radar is damaged, Chen Xin is now unable to scan the surrounding environment and can only rely on the infrared camera of the drone to photograph the surrounding environment. This brings great trouble to Chen Xin in judging the situation of the surrounding environment.

Fortunately, there were a total of four drones on the car. After they were all released, a reconnaissance network was quickly formed to take pictures of the surrounding terrain, allowing Chen Xin to make a judgment on his current situation.

The snow on the surrounding mountains seemed to have been brought down by previous avalanches, but there was no snow on the mountains. Even the roads that were originally buried in the snow showed some traces.

The valley was filled with a large amount of snow, and the thickness of the snow suddenly increased by several meters. It seemed that the entire terrain had changed.

Faced with this situation, after thinking for a while, Chen Xin decided to drive up the mountain and continue along the original road instead of continuing through the valley.

This is partly because part of the road has been exposed after the avalanche. Although there is still thick snow on the road, it is barely possible to drive on it.

On the contrary, the snow in the valley caused by the avalanche has not yet frozen solid, so the whole car will get stuck in the snow when driving up.

And considering that Chen Xin still needs to find a doctor to re-treat his injuries, he needs to go to the next populated place along the highway.

Although there are no big cities along the way, there are still a few county towns you can visit.

Through voice control of the operating system, the car climbed up the mountain and returned to the road. It switched to autonomous driving and continued along the road. Chen Xin was also looking at the map to find places where he could go for help.

It's obviously not possible in the countryside, not to mention whether there are doctors in rural shelters. Even if there are, doctors in small shelters would probably have a hard time treating injuries like fractures.

Chen Xin needs to set his bones and re-fix his arm. Such an injury requires at least a place where X-rays can be taken.

Because he switched to automatic driving, Chen Xin did not dare to let the car go too fast and could only move forward at a slower speed.

Fortunately, the road is relatively flat in the end, and some traces of the road have been exposed after the snow avalanche. If you follow the map and move forward, as long as you don't encounter any damage to the roadbed, running will indeed be much more comfortable than walking in the valley. Relatively speaking, the speed of progress is also faster.

But even so, Chen Xin still didn't reach the nearest county seat after running for a day.

On the one hand, the speed of the self-driving car was not fast and it did not go too far. On the other hand, Chen Xin took painkillers after being injured, which made him drowsy. In order to avoid people falling asleep while the car was driving, When a dangerous incident occurred, Chen Xin could only stop the car and find a place to take a good rest and sleep.

After leaving the three towns, there are only two prefecture-level counties attached to Huanggang City along the way. The county closer to Chenxin is very small on the map and looks like a very ordinary small county.

Chen Xin was not sure whether his injuries could be treated here, but now this was the closest possible treatment place to Chen Xin. He could only move towards this county and try his luck.

If there was no way to treat the fracture in this county, Chen Xin would have no choice but to return to the three towns for treatment or move forward to the next, slightly more prosperous county to see if treatment could be provided.

However, Chen Xin didn't want to go back. After all, returning to the three towns for treatment would undoubtedly delay a lot of time. In this time, Chen Xin might be able to reach his destination.

As for Chen Xin, he would rather have a problem with his arm and get a prosthetic body than waste time on the road.

After making up his mind, Chen Xin walked from the cab to the living cabin, dimmed the lights and lay down on the bed to prepare for sleep.

Because he injured his arm, Chen Xin was worried that it would be pressed on his arm, so he could only lie on his back on the bed to avoid touching the injured arm as much as possible.

Looking at the splint and bandage wrapped around his broken arm, Chen Xin suddenly wanted to try upgrading the splint to see if it could better protect his injured arm. Perhaps adding a bone-setting function during the upgrade could improve the splint. How about straightening your arms?

Chen Xin was a little eager to give it a try, but the sleepiness made him give up the idea.

Bone setting is very painful. Even those experienced orthopedic surgeons in the hospital will usually consider injecting anesthesia injections and local anesthesia before performing surgery when resetting a broken bone. Otherwise, the patient will scream. It was as brutal as killing a pig.

After all, not everyone is as capable as Guan Gong scraping bones to cure poison, and General Liu is capable of counting the number of incisions made by doctors during operations.

Chen Xin is just an ordinary person. He doesn't have anesthetics on his hands, so he doesn't want to try to set the bones without anesthesia, especially since he wants to have a good sleep now. What if he can't sleep after the severe pain? Very bad.

With this thought, Chen Xin adjusted his sleeping position to make himself as comfortable as possible. He didn't take off his clothes and just lay on the bed and fell asleep.
