Arctic survival, starting in hell at minus fifty degrees Celsius

Sun Chengwu had only one titanium alloy arrow left. Wooden arrows couldn't pierce the polar bear's fur, so only this modern weapon had any killing power.

His hands were shaking; it was so cold that wearing gloves affected his aim, so he had to take them off.

The cold wind cut across Sun Chengwu's hands like a knife.

Suddenly, the wind and snow intensified, further reducing visibility.

Sun Chengwu squinted as the wind and snow lashed his face, the ice crystals scratching his cheeks, leaving red marks in no time.

Sun Chengwu's heart tightened, pounding as if it were about to jump out of his throat.

In this awful weather, he wouldn't even have time to react if a polar bear suddenly charged at him.

All he could hear were the fearful cries of sled dogs in the wind and snow.

Luck seemed to be on their side, as the sounds of sled dogs and polar bears grew fainter and fainter.

After a while, the sled dogs came back. Of the six, only five remained. One of them was limping, its back covered in snow, and it looked like it had been bitten.

Sun Chengwu stepped forward, picked up one arrow, and found the other one stuck in the polar bear's body, which was probably lost forever.

With the danger over, Sun Chengwu sat in the snow, feeling chilly all over.

A gust of wind blew, and he realized that he had actually been sweating.

Sun Chengwu's back was ice cold.

Just then, he heard footsteps behind him.

Sun Chengwu suddenly turned his head, his bow already drawn, aiming at the person behind him.

Giroud was startled and quickly raised his hand, shouting, "Don't get agitated!"

Sun Chengwu was relieved to see that it was one of his own people and slowly released his grip.

Giroud walked over and said, "It's a good thing you came, otherwise I probably wouldn't be able to go home today."

I had just caught up with two sled dogs when we spotted a polar bear, so we had to hide in a tree.

"What a pity for my two dogs."

Sun Chengwu didn't have much energy to speak, so he offered a perfunctory consolation, "It's good that everyone is alright. We can always get another dog."

Sun Chengwu didn't quite understand the Hadza people's feelings towards sled dogs.

To them, sled dogs are not just dogs, but family members.

Without sled dogs, they would find it difficult to go anywhere.

Giroud was in a low mood. He squatted down, looked at the sled dog that had been bitten by a polar bear, and gently stroked its head.

The sled dog held on for a while, then swayed and collapsed to the ground.

Giru said to his people, "Take their bodies back with you."

The group returned to their temporary camp.

Giru and his people skinned the sled dogs, processed the fat, and roasted it by the campfire.

The dog meat was also cut into fist-sized pieces and distributed to everyone.

This is their custom.

Although sled dogs are their family, food is scarce in the Arctic, so they eat sled dog meat and make coats from sled dog skins. Even if they don't eat them and bury them, bears will still dig them up and eat them.

Rather than letting the bears benefit, let them become your hope for survival.

As Sun Chengwu ate the dog meat, he gradually came to understand Giroud's feelings.

The blizzard continued, and the group huddled together to rest, relying on the fire for warmth.

The flames flickered in the blizzard, threatening to go out at any moment.

Two days later, the blizzard finally stopped, a few white clouds floated in the sky, and the dazzling sunlight shone down.

Unfortunately, this beautiful view only lasts for two hours before nightfall.

Their ice sleds had been buried by heavy snow, and everyone was digging them out with great effort, with sled dogs also helping.

It took more than three hours to dig out the ice sled. Everyone worked together to build a slope with the snow and push the ice sled onto the snow surface.

The ice skates are flat and pressed into the snow. They rely on gravitational potential energy to convert into kinetic energy, and are then pulled by sled dogs. In fact, they do not require much effort.

The group continued on their journey.

With five fewer sled dogs, their speed didn't decrease too much; it's just that the sled dogs' rest time was reduced, and they covered less distance each day.

Five days later, the group returned to Sun Chengwu's camp.

Sun Chengwu urged Giru to stay and rest for a while. Even if you don't rest, these little guys need to rest too.

Giroud glanced at the sled dog with its tongue lolling out and nodded hesitantly.

Sun Chengwu directed everyone to unload the goods from the truck, and the task of entertaining Giru was handed over to Li Mu, with Lin Lili accompanying them as a translator.

The news of Sun Chengwu's return spread like wildfire.

The key members of the camp came to visit him one after another.

However, what attracted their attention the most were the six tall Nordic girls.

Rogers was practically drooling as he looked at one of the girls with the biggest breasts and asked, "Boss, where did you get all these pretty girls?"

Sun Chengwu rolled his eyes at him. "Don't you have a family?"

Rogers chuckled. "Yes, but after something like this happened, they probably already thought I was dead."

She might have remarried with my son by now, can't I enjoy myself?

Rogers was a good man in every way, except for his womanizing.

Of course, it's also possible that he deliberately revealed it.

It would be dangerous if a person had no flaws.

Knowing the strengths and weaknesses makes them easier to manage.

Rogers was a shrewd man; he knew how to hide his true abilities and disguised himself as a sleazy fat man to protect himself.

It's inevitable that he would pretend to be a lecherous man to lower Sun Chengwu's guard.

Sun Chengwu said, "If you like her, take her home, but I have to tell you in advance that she is not a slave, and we don't do that slave owner thing. You have to treat her well."

Here, I don't care whether you've had a family before, but you have to take responsibility.

Rogers patted his chest and agreed, "Okay."

Rogers walked toward the bear girl.

The bear girl screamed, and Rogers grabbed her waist and kissed her on the lips.

The girl struggled, but was afraid of hurting Rogers and being abused herself.

Sun Chengwu stopped paying attention to that side.

Sun Chengwu handed the remaining five girls over to Li Ya.

Let Li Ya decide how to arrange it.

However, Sun Chengwu also gave these girls the right to make their own decisions. As long as they chose a man who was willing to accept them and support them, they could live a stable life.

With things mostly settled, Lao Ma approached Sun Chengwu again, "Boss, we're back. Could you help me make an appointment with Fang Wei?"

Sun Chengwu looked at the embarrassed Old Ma and said, "You're such a big man, you weren't scared when facing a polar bear, but you're scared when facing a woman?"

Last time I told you about her past, did you understand?

Old Ma nodded. "I've looked into it. Her husband died, and she gritted her teeth and persevered so she could go back to care for her elderly parents."

Sun Chengwu countered, "You don't mind?"
