After everyone finished cleaning up, they closed the door and rested next to the fire: "We will go back to the city immediately after the snow stops tomorrow morning. It's too cold in this damn place."
"Oh, who knew it would snow? Go to sleep." A slight snore soon sounded in the room.
Zhou Yan added a few pieces of thick wood to the fire to prevent it from extinguishing at night, then returned to Xihe, who leaned into his arms.
Zhou Yan stiffened and subconsciously looked at the others. Everyone was asleep, so he blushed and gently put his hand on her shoulder and closed his eyes.
The cold wind roared outside the window, and heavy snowflakes fell from the sky. In a short while, the trees, rooftops, the busiest city center, the entire mountain range, and even the whole world... were covered with thick snowflakes.
When everyone woke up the next day and opened the door, they were all shocked to see more than a foot of snow.
Looking at the snow that was still falling non-stop, everyone finally panicked: "What should we do? The snow is still falling, can we go down the mountain?"
It was too dark last night to walk through the night, but now looking at the vast expanse of white in the distance, I couldn't tell where the road was. If I forced myself to go forward, I might get lost in the mountains.
"Besides, our clothes are too thin and our shoes are not warm enough, so we can't walk very far at all," someone said.
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent. Looking at themselves, their clothes and shoes were indeed not warm enough.
"What should we do? Do we have to wait here for the snow to stop?"
"But when will it stop snowing?"
Everyone looked at each other, took out their mobile phones, and were shocked by the news on it. It turns out that it snowed not only here last night but also in the southern coastal areas, and some people posted videos online.
'Come and see the snow in our south, wow, it's snowing like feathers'
'We also have snow in the south, hahaha'
Very happy, as if celebrating the New Year.
"Why...why is it snowing in the south? Isn't the weather too weird?" Someone couldn't help but ask.
Others looked at their phones and frowned. The weather was really weird, so what should they do? Want to leave? They couldn't help but feel sad.
Fang Yuan looked around and suddenly frowned: "Zhou Yan, what are you doing?"
Everyone looked over when they heard the sound, and saw Zhou Yan standing in the snow, bending down to stuff snow into the pot. Hearing the sound, they turned around and said, "Make something for Nunuu." He grabbed two more handfuls of snow and stuffed it in. Turn around and stride back to the house.
Fang Yuan's face turned dark: "It's already this time, and you're still just focusing on eating. Do you have any sense of teamwork?"
Zhou Yan stopped in surprise and was about to speak. Xihe dragged him into the house and walked to the door. He crossed his arms and looked at Fang Yuan: "What, are you going down the mountain?"
Fang Yuan snorted coldly: "Of course, we are not like some people who are afraid of hardship, tiredness, and pain."
Xihe nodded: "Oh, then I wish you good luck."
Fang Yuan immediately frowned: "What do you mean? You won't leave?"
Yang Shuo also looked disapproving: "Tan Nu, although it is still snowing outside and our clothes and shoes are not warm enough, as long as we contact the rescue in advance and insist on walking down the mountain, we will be able to return to the city soon."
"We don't have enough food to eat. If we wait for the snow to stop, we will definitely not be able to hold on."
Others nodded: "Yes, let's contact the rescue and then go down the mountain!"
Then Xihe watched them contact the rescue, cheered and started packing their things.
Yang Shuo also came over and said: "You guys should pack up quickly. It will definitely be difficult along the way, but there is nothing we can do about it. This mountain is too big and rescue will be difficult. If we wait any longer, we probably won't be able to go back tomorrow." "
Xihe shook his head: "It's too cold outside, we won't leave."
Yang Shuo became a little impatient: "Tan Nu, everyone has to go down the mountain. It's not safe for you to stay here. There might be wild animals on the mountain. Don't be stubborn. Otherwise, you can ask Zhou Yan."
Xihe still shook his head: "Yang Shuo, it's really cold outside. If you walk for more than ten hours, your feet will freeze. Moreover, the snow is heavy and it's easy to get lost. What if we get lost in the mountains? I won't let Zhou Yan go. adventurous."
They also went down the mountain in the last life, and ended up walking for two hours. The original owner couldn't bear it and refused to let Zhou Yan take her back to the cabin. There were two other people traveling with her, so they were saved. However, Yang Shuo and the others walked far away. He didn't come back when the temperature suddenly dropped to minus 20 degrees.
With a fire burning all the time in the room, I could barely survive this kind of temperature, but outside it was a death.
Yang Shuo and the others were very embarrassed when they came back, and there was one person missing from the team, and everyone was more or less frostbitten.
Xihe said directly: "In short, I don't recommend that you go down the mountain. If you want to leave, you have to wait until the snow stops. Of course, you are free to listen or not."
Tonight and tomorrow night are the coldest nights, and it will slowly pick up later, and the snow will stop in a few days.
Of course, this does not mean that it will never snow again in the future. This is just a short transition period that the world has given to human beings. When the snow continues to fall, the weather will become colder and colder, and humans will be in a low temperature state all year round. Survival has become extremely difficult.
Thinking of this, Xihe went directly into the house. The first priority was to prepare how to spend these few days, and then called the original owner's parents and Zhou Yan's parents to ask them to prepare supplies for the winter.
Yang Shuo was so angry that he felt tight in his chest and went directly to Zhou Yan: "Zhou Yan, we are going down the mountain. You go and pack your things quickly."
Zhou Yan was cooking the leftover chicken from last night. Hearing this, he nodded quickly: "Okay, I'll give Nunuu something to eat first, and then I'll go and clean it up." He went to find Xihe with his things, and then came back with a frown on his face.
Yang Shuo's heart sank: "What's wrong? We have already contacted the rescue team. They are at the foot of the mountain. As long as we get out of the mountain, we will be able to return to the city soon. Zhou Yan, are you going to listen to Tan Nu?" Stay here?"
"Don't be stupid. We've all left. What will you do if you stay? There's no food or water, and the weather forecast says it's going to snow for a long time!"
Zhou Yan shook his head: "Zhaozi, I think what Nunuu said makes sense. We should wait until the snow stops before leaving. The snow is so heavy now, and it is easy to get into trouble if we go out." Seeing him, he said again, and continued, "We can save things. Eat something, or you can try your luck in the woods. Although you won't be able to eat well, you will have no problem surviving, and the situation will be better than going down the mountain now."
He knew that staying in the mountains was not an option, but with so much snow outside, it was too dangerous to go down the mountain.
"Besides, didn't we call for rescue? We can wait for rescue in the mountains."
He looked around and said, "It just so happens that there is not much food now. Let's take advantage of this time to go to the woods to catch a pheasant or something."
Yang Shuo: "..."
If what I said just now makes sense, what follows is simply nonsense. Catching pheasants? Did he think pheasants were so easy to catch? He could catch them whenever he wanted.
He was worried that Zhou Yan was completely led astray by that woman Tan Nu.
"Yang Shuo, what do you care about what they do? If they want to die, just let them go." Xia Li looked over with a sneer.
Zhou Yan glanced at her and looked at Yang Shuo: "Zhuozi, think it over carefully." Then he walked to Xi He, and the two took their hiking poles, talked and laughed and headed outside.
Yang Shuo immediately chased after him: "What are you doing?"
Xihe waved his hand behind him: "Catch the pheasant."
Yang Shuo was speechless for a moment, but when he wanted to chase them again, the two of them had disappeared into the woods.
