"The prince and concubine can persist, so can we." The fat man said firmly.

Ding Zhen is speechless, He Lan Linzhang's physical fitness is not much to say, Luo Xiyao is not an ordinary woman, is she?

Really... Can't wait for him to take a few more breaths before setting off?
Soon, Helan Linzhang slowed down, not because he couldn't hold on, but because the wind picked up, and the wind and snow forced him to slow down.

The wind blew the veils heavily on their faces, and the snow stuck to them, covering their mouths and noses.

Helan Linzhang had to stop.

He turned around and said, "The direction of the wind has changed. If we want to move on, we must wait for the direction of the wind to change again, or use Jiu Niang's method of sealing the acupoints. We can stop breathing for an hour."

Ding Zhen raised his hand and patted the snow on the veil covering his face, "It's too difficult!"

You can look at the road with a handkerchief, and you don’t have to worry about being blinded by snow, but thick snow and silk, what is the difference between this and burying them alive?
I don't worry about snow blocking my nose and mouth if I don't use a veil, but my eyes can't stand it.

If the strong wind continues to blow like this, they will not be able to move forward.

"Rest in place." He Lan Linzhang untied the rope, and asked the fat man to take Ding Zhen to knock down the icicles hanging from the tree not far away. It is best to stick to the branches.

He and Luo Xiyao were in charge of making a simple tent out of the cloak.

Luo Xiyao crushed the bugs to death, and glued the edges of the cloak with their slime; Helan Linzhang cut the icicles brought back by the fat man into the same length, and stuck them in the snow for support.

Ding Zhen hugged the dead branches and placed them in the middle, then imitated Luo Xiyao and He Lan Linzhang, facing inward, and sat down in a circle.

Seeing that they were all seated, the fat man circled around the small tent, compacted the edge of the tent with icicles, and left a place to get in.

Luo Xiyao had already lit the fire. Although there was only one small one, it brought them endless warmth in the dark snowy night.

Helan Linzhang hugged Luo Xiyao, who was as cold as ice, and leaned on one side, letting Fatty and Ding Zhen sit on the other side. They didn't need to sit in four directions, it would be inconvenient to keep warm , It is not easy to find the danger outside.

It is different for four people to sit in two directions, so that they can open two doors and poke their heads out vigilantly from time to time, which can somewhat avoid some dangers.

It's just that as the wind direction changes, the position of the door must also change accordingly, otherwise the wind will blow in with snow and the fire will be extinguished.

Every once in a while, Luo Xiyao and He Lan Linzhang would split up and go out to investigate, firstly to observe the astrology and wind direction, secondly to observe whether there were wild beasts in ambush, and thirdly to be vigilant against the Dongqi people who didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

There are five branches in a fire, and they use the fire as a boundary, and watch the night in pairs.

The ice field is too quiet, and there is no other sound except the sound of wind and snow. It is too dangerous to fall asleep alone at night.

Two people can talk at night and avoid dozing off to some extent.

At this time, there is no need to be humble. Whoever should keep watch will go out regularly, and those who don't keep watch should take the time to rest and sleep.

Because they knew that the night here would probably not be over when they found the door.

Maybe it was the longest night of their lives.

The wind speed outside was getting stronger and stronger. If it wasn't for the mucus of the bugs being strong, their tents might have been blown away right now.

When the fat man heard the sound of changing firewood, he immediately opened his eyes, "I'm awake, Dr. Ding and I are guarding the fire, you guys go to sleep!"

The wind and snow went from small to large, and then from large to small, and then the wind stopped and the snow calmed down, which foreshadowed the coming of the cold wave, and then... another reincarnation.

Fatty faintly felt that this conjecture was correct. When the wind and snow became smaller, it was time for them to hurry on their way, because it would not be long before they would usher in another wave of cold.

Looking at Ding Zhen who lifted his probe to look around from time to time, the fat man asked suspiciously: "I just went around and didn't find any danger. I guess it's because after leaving the igloo, the wolves and other wild beasts were full, so I won't be here for a while." They will stare at us. Besides, we have a lot of people, so we don’t need to be afraid of wolves.”

How many people?

Ding Zhen almost didn't know the word "more".

His eyes repeatedly looked at the small curtain that could easily bump into the people around him when he turned his head, counting silently: one, two, three, four.

Can four people be too many?

The fat man seemed to know what he was thinking, and said: "I'm not talking about the simple number of people, but the combat power. You have seen the skills of our prince, me!" He patted his chest, "There are still some However, after using the potion given by Lan in the world in the coffin, not to mention all diseases disappeared, and the internal strength has increased by [-]%."

"Although the concubine does not know martial arts, her Gu skills are exquisite and immortal. Dr. Ding is also a master at using poison, and there are mirage beads by his side. Even if I can't fight alone with the prince, the concubine and the gu worms are still there." Doctor Ding, your mirage beads are all used against groups, how many wolves can you still deal with?"

"Shut up!" Ding Zhen picked up the water bag next to the fire and threw it to the fat man, "Wake them up later, let's see what you say."

Fatty shut up.

But he couldn't bear it for a while, and just like a child, he kept turning his lips left and right.

Ding Zhen didn't even notice, "If you want to say it, just say it, who will show you the mischief?"

"What a picky old man. It's not right for me to speak, and it's not right not to speak, tsk tsk tsk."

The purpose of the night watch for two people is to talk about the world, so how can they do it without talking?
"I just want to say that it's quite cold outside. When you go out, Doctor Ding, remember to drink some hot water before going." The fat man thought for a while, and then said, "If you're really scared, you can ask me to accompany you."

"Go away! What are you afraid of?"

After finishing speaking, Ding Zhen flicked his sleeves and strode out.

You don’t have to go far, just look around with a torch to see if there are any extra footprints or other traces, see if the stars and moon in the night sky have changed, feel the wind direction, and see if the surrounding snow has melted trace……

Although the fire in the tent was small, it was extremely bright in the open ice field.

Ding Zhen thought to himself: No wonder no wild beasts came over, all wild beasts are afraid of fire.I don't know how Luo Xiyao made it big, but the small fire turned into a raging fire after passing through the felt cloak.

At first glance, I thought the whole tent was a fire!
Ding Zhen came back soon, and not long after, it was Fatty again, and then him again.

When changing the fire, Helan Linzhang opened his eyes, there was no trace of sleepiness in his eyes, as if he had been awake all along.

He didn't try to be brave, and after letting Fatty and Ding Zhen rest, he woke Luo Xiyao up.

An hour later, the wind became stronger, as if someone was crying in their ears, making them unable to sleep.

Helan Linzhang lightly put the hood on her head, nodded with the fat man who was about to go out on patrol, and closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw Luo Xiyao squatting opposite.

"Jiu Niang?"

Luo Xiyao touched the place where Ding Zhen was originally sitting, frowned and said, "Ding Zhen is gone, Fatty went out to look for it."
