Returning to the end of the world before the natural disaster, I emptied the world of supplies
Chapter 395 An unexpected gain
The team began to move forward slowly.
The surrounding area was not flat, and there were many small meteorites that were not buried by the snow. Jiang Yan and Ye Qing did not dare to ride too fast.
Another thing is that there is no shelter around the sled, and if the speed is too fast, Song Haitao and others sitting on the sled will not be able to handle it.
Of course, this is also to ensure that Song Qian and Qin Lang, who are pulling the sled manually, can keep up.
Song Haitao sat on the sled pulled by Jiang Yan, holding a map, an invalid compass, and a pair of snow goggles that were not the right size, and reminded:
"Left, 45 degree angle, go straight!"
In less than ten minutes, snowflakes had already hung on his eyelashes and mask.
Jiang Yan bought a lot of snow goggles, but most of them were in her own size.
I only bought a few large and small ones, both for men and women.
You can't look at the snow with your naked eyes for too long, otherwise you will easily suffer from snow blindness, so Jiang Yan basically distributed these snow goggles to the soldiers who were escorting on foot.
As for the few old men and Lin Xiaohui sitting on the sled, except Song Haitao, they either lowered their heads to look at their legs or closed their eyes to rest.
Even if he couldn't help but look around out of curiosity, he would just glance around a few times before looking away.
The soldiers walking around the sled looked around vigilantly as they walked.
The snowflakes were still falling, and there was endless emptiness all around.
The more such an environment is, the more dangerous the mutated animals or humans that appear will be.
So no one dared to take it lightly.
Jiang Ye was walking at the end of the team. He was holding two trekking poles in his hands and walked with some difficulty.
After feeling that the sled behind him was not too heavy, Song Qian took on the task of pulling the sled alone.
Two hours later, Jiang Yan discovered that the density of meteorites in the snow had obviously decreased.
Ye Qing, Song Qian and others also discovered it.
The soldiers on guard also noticed it.
"These meteorites are specifically heading for crowded places?"
"should be."
"Damn it! These people really deserve to be torn into pieces!"
Song Haitao's brows relaxed slightly, "But this also means that we have reached the suburbs of Dongshan."
"Doc, doesn't that mean we're already a third of the way there?!"
"Yeah." Song Haitao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The fact that they were able to walk smoothly from Nanpanjiang to the suburbs in the white snow at least showed that the direction they chose was correct.
Qin Lang picked up the military telescope and looked into the distance, but unfortunately, all he saw was a vast expanse of white.
"The wind and snow ahead seem to be getting stronger," he said.
"That's normal. The altitude over at Phoenix Mountain is higher than the urban area, and the temperature is also lower." Sun Jingtao continued.
"Hey, what is that?" Kong Wu saw at a glance that there seemed to be an animal corpse under a black meteorite not far away.
The animal was about the size of an adult elephant, had thick black hair and what appeared to be horns, with the rest of its body covered by meteorites and ice.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan and Ye Qing slowed down the car.
"I'll go take a look." said one of the soldiers closest to him, and he trotted over with his gun in hand, stepping on the powder snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
He quickly turned around and said excitedly to everyone, "Wow! Comrades, come here! We've made a fortune!"
After saying that, he took out his shovel and began to dig the snow quickly around the animal carcass.
Jiang Yan and Ye Qing stopped the car and walked over.
Seeing this, Hua Bao put down the sled and rolled and jumped onto Jiang Yan's shoulders.
The people sitting on the sled wanted to get off to take a look, but they found that their legs had already frozen, so they could only stay there and watch.
Seeing the animal revealing most of its frozen body, Song Qian took a closer look and analyzed:
"This animal is a bit like a yak. But isn't it only found on those plateaus? How come there are also some in Dongshan?" "No wonder. The snow geese that Ye Qing captured before were also only found in the North Pole."
"Wow! That's a great tonic! We can have an extra meal tonight!"
"But this one weighs several hundred kilograms, so I'm afraid it's a bit unlucky."
"You're still worried about the food, I'll drag it back for them." A soldier volunteered and just finished speaking, Kong Wu said, "This cow fur is very thick. Since I discovered it with my sharp eyes, can I apply for a cow fur coat?"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, "Ye Qing and Jiang Yan killed so many snow wolves and got so many snow wolf furs, but they didn't keep them all for themselves."
Kong Wu's ears turned red, and he was about to explain, but then he heard Jiang Yan laugh and say, "We are really lucky, this is a musk ox."
"Socialist?" Kong Wu was stunned. "Sister Yan, I am also socially phobic."
Jiang Yan was amused by him and explained, "No, it's the musk ox. It is said that when the bull is in heat, the male musk ox will emit the smell of musk from the glands in its eye sockets."
"Musk ox?" Everyone paused while digging in the snow. "Jiang Yan, how come you know all this?"
Jiang Yan smiled. It wasn’t that she understood it, but she had searched it out on Huabao’s optical brain encyclopedia.
"Musk oxen are the largest herbivores in the Arctic. They have lived on our planet for 600,000 years and are ancient creatures left over from the Ice Age.
If it hadn't been hit by this meteorite, it would have lived a very good life in this extremely cold weather."
"Do you think this is a gift from nature?"
"must be!"
This musk ox has been dead for a long time.
However, in such extremely cold weather, the food is just like being placed in a natural refrigerator, without any deterioration.
"Digging this cow reminds me of the scene of digging yam in my hometown." A soldier's eyes reddened.
A casual remark suddenly made everyone's originally hot mood sink.
Zhao Yougong stopped digging, stopped, glanced at his wife in the wind and snow in the distance, then looked into the distance with a confused look.
Song Qian beside him knew what he was thinking and comforted him, "Old Zhao, Miaomiao is in the base, she will be fine."
Zhao Yougong didn't say anything, but just sighed silently.
Several people took turns digging for a long time and finally dug out an ice cave with a slope under the musk ox.
Song Qian took the ordnance shovel and hit the musk ox several times, and the huge creature fell down with a "bang".
A dozen men raised their hands and feet and pulled the huge monster out of the ice pit.
Song Qian and Qin Lang volunteered directly, "Jiang Yan, Xiao Ye, your sleds are full, we will be responsible for pulling the ox."
Everyone was surprised, "This weighs several hundred kilograms!"
Kong Wu stepped forward and said, "Don't be afraid, I'll help too."
"I'll come too." Sun Jingtao also said.
"Forget about it, Old Sun. You still need to take care of the wound on your shoulder." Song Qian said, and also said to Kong Wu:
"You don't need it for now. You don't know that the friction between this sled and the ground is very small. Once you pull it up, it's very easy."
Qin Lang echoed, "That's right, using a little force to achieve a great result, that's what we are talking about."
After hearing this, everyone was eager to try it out.
However, before that, the musk ox had to be tied up first.
There were too many people, so Jiang Yan did not choose to put the giant creature into the space in front of everyone.
"There is strength in numbers. This ox can be lifted up so easily." To everyone's surprise, more than a dozen people lifted up the musk ox without any effort. Everyone was surprised for a second.
Jiang Yan watched quietly the whole time, smiling and saying nothing.
"Flower, good job!"
She praised Hua Baodao in her mind for secretly extending her vines to help several people. (End of this chapter)
