Chapter 517 Snow Doll
"Before it's completely dark, let's set up the camp. We need to move quickly to avoid this blizzard first." Liu Gan still seemed extremely calm. Just be confident.
"Set up a camp? Here?" Anna stared at Liu Gan with wide eyes. There was no village and no shop behind. camp?
Is it to build a house with snow? Is the amount of work too big? It’s okay to build a snow wall, but the problem is how to build a roof? And would the house survive a blizzard at night? If the snow wall is blown down, wouldn't everyone be frozen to death?
"Master Liu, why don't you take out your scepter and poke a big cloud hole in the sky, the blizzard will be gone, maybe there will be sunshine." Guo Tian walked over and looked at the sky and whispered a suggestion to Liu Gan.
"I tried it. The scepter is limited to only changing the weather in Tranquility City." Liu Gan shook his head.
"Oh... then it seems that we can only build up houses." Guo Tian had a regretful expression on his face.
Liu Gan took out the snow shovel and poked around in the snow, then observed the surrounding environment, and finally he chose a slope as the place to set up camp tonight. According to the wind direction, the snow hills up to tens of meters in front will provide them Block the power of most blizzards.
"Master Liu, what are we doing now? Building a house made of snow bricks?" Guo Tian approached and asked Liu Qian for instructions.
"We don't build a house. We have to dig a snow hole here. Building a house on the snow is a lot of work, and it is easy to collapse if it is blown by a snowstorm. But digging a snow hole and hiding in it doesn't have to worry about it. This place is located on a leeward slope , No matter how the blizzard blows here, hiding in the snow cave will be safe and warm.”
Liu Gan tried to use a snow shovel to dig up the snow on the slope. After a while, he dug out a snow hole. He tried the snow walls around the snow hole, and it was obvious that the hardness was just right. If it is too hard, it will be difficult to dig. If it is too soft, the hole dug will easily collapse. Now this hardness is most suitable for snow cave camps.
After a while, Guo Tian took the snow shovel in turn and started digging. Liu Gan was still not idle after giving the snow shovel to Guo Tian. Instead, he continued to dig in the snow with his iron hands. The speed and efficiency were no less than Guo Tian who was holding a snow shovel.
"Who is this Master Liu? Is this okay?" Qianzhou watched Liu Gan digging the snow with his bare hands, and didn't stop for several minutes, so his eyes widened.
"Master Liu is a man harder than iron." Anna replied to Qianzhou.
"You know him very well..." Qianzhou gave Anna a meaningful look.
"Of course." Anna replied proudly to Qianzhou, and suddenly felt that Qianzhou's tone just now was not quite right.
never mind. Still do not explain.
The snow on the slope is very thick and easy to dig. In a short time, the snow cave was dug to a depth of more than one person. The snow dug out was piled up on the upper edge of the snow cave by willow stems and compacted to keep out the wind. A distance of more than one meter is required to prevent the snow cave from collapsing and blocking the entrance of the snow cave.
The night on the snow-capped mountains is very dangerous. It is definitely not possible to travel at night in the face of a blizzard. It is difficult to identify the direction of progress at night, and hypothermia will make people more prone to fatigue. At this time, you must find a place to rest.
Six people went into battle together, mainly three men did it. Three women were helping to clean up the excavated snow. The entrance of the cave was only half a meter wide, but the inside was getting bigger and bigger. The length and width were almost two meters, and the height was about two meters. , Standing inside feels that a relatively closed and safe small room has been formed.
The space below was still very narrow, so Liu Gan asked Jiang Jinyuan to stay outside with Qianzhou and Zhang Mengdi temporarily, while he, Guo Tian, and Anna continued to organize the snow cave camp.
"Why is the snow so thick? I thought I could see the soil after digging one meter deep!" Guo Tian said in a surprised tone.
"The snow accumulated between the peaks can even be tens or hundreds of meters thick. How can it be so easy for you to dig the soil?" Liu Gan shook his head.
"Nature is amazing." Anna sighed.
"It's time to make a bed below. Make it up early and go to sleep early. Let's continue on our way after the snowstorm is over." Liu Gan looked around in the snow cave.
"Master Liu, do we all have to hug each other to sleep at night? It's absolutely warm to sleep together." Guo Tian's eyes flashed green, thinking of hugging Yujie Qianzhou and cute girl Zhang Mengdi from left to right. Scenario, I couldn't help drooling again. Such a small house. Definitely have to hug and sleep together! Otherwise, how can we squeeze in?
"Everyone else is hugging and sleeping together, so you don't have to. I'll make you a snow doll to hug and keep warm." Anna immediately replied to Guo Tian with a look of contempt. She could guess what Guo Tian was thinking at this time. It's not her who is a woman, it must be those two beauties who want to hug.
"The camp is not finished yet. We need to continue digging, dig out the bed, I'll dig here, you dig over there with a snow shovel, dig on the side of the wall, about half a meter from the ground, the upper and lower sides should be flat, and the length should be two meters , About half a meter high." Liu Gan pointed to Guo Tian on a snow wall.
"Bed platform?" Guo Tian still didn't quite understand.
"Well, a platform is dug out on the side snow wall as a bed, cold air will fall straight down from above, it will be very cold directly below the snow cave, and the platform dug out on the side is sheltered from the wind and warm, it is a good place for us to escape the snowstorm .” Liu Gan nodded and moved his hands.
His alloy arm can not only dig and plan on the snow wall like a mechanical arm, but also will not feel cold, and will not suffer from frostbite and frostbite, so even if he does not use a snow shovel, his efficiency is better than that of using a snow shovel. Guo Tian is much taller.
The sleeping platform should not be too large, as it will not be able to keep warm if it is too large, and it will not work if it is too small, the snow will accumulate outside when the snowstorm blows, and the snow cave will be compressed to a certain extent, and people who fall asleep inside may be Buried alive.
Liu Qian guided Guo Tian, and the two worked together, and quickly dug four beds for sleeping on the four walls. The four sleep on a bed each, leaving two people on duty. It is obvious that Guo Tian's idea of sleeping with the beautiful woman will come to nothing.
"Why do you have to sleep separately? It's warm when you sleep together." Guo Tian said to Liu Gan unwillingly.
"You can take the initiative to invite, maybe Anna will agree to hug and sleep with you." Liu Gan suggested to Guo Tian.
"Looking for her? Then I might as well hug a snow doll..." Guo Tian blurted out. (~^~)
