Chapter 542: Ice Lake Town
"We are part of the scientific expedition team. The helicopter encountered a blizzard and crashed on the snow-capped mountains, so we had to walk back to Dongtu City on foot." Of course, Liu Gan made up an identity as reasonable as possible for himself.
"Well, the weather in the past few days is very strange! The temperature has dropped drastically, and there has been a blizzard that has never been seen before, and then it has not stopped, isolating our town from the outside of the mountain. If the benefactor did not contact the rescue If so, you can rest at our place temporarily." Old Man Zhang nodded to Liu Gan.
The scientific expedition team was tall and powerful, and Liu Gan looked dignified and must be an intellectual, so he had no doubts about what Liu Gan said.
"Then I'll trouble you!" Liu Gan walked back and greeted the others. After the crowd came over, they dragged the white bear behind them, followed the old man Zhang and his wife, and walked deep into the strange rock. array.
The strange stone formation was indeed extremely complicated. Without Mr. Zhang leading the way, it would have been impossible for everyone to find their way through. Mr. Zhang said that he grew up here since he was a child. There is not so much snow in the strange stone formation in summer. He runs around the strange stone formation with his friends every day, so he will not get lost with his eyes closed.
After passing the strange stone formation, everyone followed Mr. and Mrs. Zhang uphill, downhill, and turned around to a small town.
This small town is much bigger than the small town in Anna's dream. It is located in a valley and looks like hundreds of families. Moreover, there are high-end villas and a scenic villa on the edge of the town. According to Mr. Zhang, it was invested by rich people in the city.
The valley is surrounded by snow-covered peaks, all the way out was blocked by the avalanche, the communication base station was also destroyed in the avalanche, the town and Tundra City completely lost contact, but the city~ The government did not send a rescue team. According to Mr. Zhang's estimate, the snow may not melt until tomorrow's spring, allowing the road into the mountain to be open again.
Liu Gan couldn't help frowning. He guessed that things were not as simple as Old Man Zhang had imagined, the snowstorm in Tundra City. Like the thunderstorm in Tranquility City, it will never stop. If you want to leave this small town and go to Dongtu City. He had to find another way to find a way out of the mountain.
If he really wanted to stop the blizzard, Liu Qian would probably have to rise to a certain level like Tranquility City, do the ultimate dungeon mission and get the scepter of Tundra City.
But it's meaningless to think about things so far away now. It's completely dark now, so let's rest in a small mountain town for the time being.
The town where Old Man Zhang lived was called Binghu Town, which apparently got its name from the huge frozen lake on the mountain. In addition, there is a small ice lake next to the town. According to Mr. Zhang, the small ice lake only freezes in winter in previous years, and it does not freeze very thickly. At least people cannot stand on the ice.
But after this year's blizzard started, the Little Ice Lake was also covered with thick ice, and children can skate on the ice freely.
"Didn't you say that the whole world has undergone a catastrophe? Why is it all right here?" Qian Zhou asked Anna beside her strangely.
"Maybe this place is covered with snow all the year round and isolated from the world, so it hasn't affected this place yet?" Anna speculated.
"The communication base station here is also broken. Otherwise, I can contact the Dongtu Municipal Government. Or the Polar Experimental Site and ask them to send a rescue plane to pick us up." Qianzhou became a little depressed again.
"Don't worry, Master Liu will figure out a way." Anna expressed disapproval. Whether it is Dongtu City or the Polar Experimental Site, she is not in such a hurry to rush there. As long as you follow Liu Gan, wherever Liu Gan goes, she will go wherever she goes.
The snow on the streets of the town has been cleared, everything looks in order, and there are lights on both sides of the street, and there are lights in the shops. Walking on the streets of the town, Liu Gan and others seem to have returned to the real world.
This long-lost feeling makes people even wonder if they are in a dream, it is too unreal.
The town~government~government of the town is still operating normally. There are coal mines in the mountains, and there is a temporary coal yard in the town. It happened that a lot of coal was collected, and after the outside power could not be imported, the town government requisitioned the coal in the coal yard, restarted the town's thermal generators to supply electricity to the town, and the reserves in the coal yard were enough for the town It will be used until next spring.
Old Man Zhang was in the restaurant business, so he was of course very interested in the bear that Liu Gan had killed, so he decided to buy Liu Gan's big white bear at a high price. In addition, he also promised that Liu Gan and his party will take care of all the food, drink and accommodation in Binghu Town.
According to Mr. Zhang, although the town is isolated from the outside world due to the snow cover, the currency is still in circulation.
There are three hotels in the town, and you can get a standard room for one night for only 100 yuan on weekdays, but now the owner of the hotel with the road blocked by snow is starting the price, and a room costs 200 yuan a night. For six people to eat a meal, in the restaurant of Mr. Zhang’s house, it only costs two to three hundred yuan to order more than ten dishes. After a preliminary calculation, the money given by Mr. Zhang is enough for six people to live well in a small town It's been a few days, and Liu Gan didn't want to stay here for too long, the money is enough.
After Liu Qian asked about the price of food, drink and accommodation here, he felt that it was not too expensive. Since he had money in hand, he didn't ask old man Zhang to spend money to invite them to eat, drink and stay.
Liu Gan led the people to open two rooms in the hotel, one for three men and one for three women. There was hot water in the hotel, and everyone took a good bath with hot water. Only then did they get together again, went to the old man Zhang's restaurant and asked for a private room, ordered a dozen dishes, sat around and ate together.
Everyone chatted and ate while Guo Tian asked Mr. Zhang for two bottles of white wine. The dishes made in the restaurant were really delicious, and everyone who had been scrambling in the snow-capped mountains for several days ate very well. happy.
"I feel more and more that all this is unreal." Anna muttered while eating the dishes.
"Yeah! You can still see a town that is functioning normally, and every house is brightly lit. It feels like there is no catastrophe in Tundra City at all. This is too strange." Jiang Jinyuan also said a few words.
"How can we do without a catastrophe? Where can we find zombies without a catastrophe?" Guo Tian looked a little unhappy.
"Why the cataclysm? Why are you talking about zombies? Don't you watch too many movies and games?" Qian Zhou expressed a very puzzled expression.
"If there is no catastrophe, it would be meaningless for us to come here with Master Liu." Guo Tian shook his head, his umbrella must kill a snow-spotted zombie. The question is, where is the snow-spotted zombie?
Not to mention the snow-spotted zombies here, none of the ordinary zombies were seen. (to be continued ~^~)
