Arctic survival, starting in hell at minus fifty degrees Celsius

Sun Chengwu stared at the polar bear carcass before him, panting heavily.

The icy air pierced his lungs, and waves of pain gradually brought him back to his senses and calm.

How long does it take to kill a polar bear?

Sun Chengwu roughly estimated that more than a month had passed from the time the polar bear was shot and wounded until its death today.

Don't say that not killing it last time doesn't count. If it weren't for that titanium arrow that pierced the polar bear's shoulder last time, Big White and Little White wouldn't be able to fight the polar bear today.

Polar bears are strong, fast, and have explosive power. If it is a healthy adult polar bear, two sub-adult gray wolves would be easy prey.

It was because it was injured and its agility was greatly reduced that it was bitten by Big White and Little White.

Sun Chengwu then had the opportunity to shoot from a distance.

If any one link were missing, Sun Chengwu would be the one who died today.

Even with the polar bear losing an arm, Sun Chengwu still faced numerous dangers.

Sun Chengwu took deep breaths repeatedly to calm his violently beating heart.

Old Ma, Baldy, and the others surrounded them, asking nervously, "Is he... is he dead?"

Sun Chengwu stood up, walked to the polar bear, stepped on the polar bear's shoulder, grasped the end of the arrow with both hands, and pulled it out forcefully.

The titanium alloy arrow that pierced the polar bear's shoulder was embedded right in the bone crevice, and when it was pulled out, it still had muscle and bone fragments stuck to it.

Of the other two arrows, one struck the polar bear in the back of its leg, greatly reducing its agility and speed.

The other wound was fatal, piercing the lung.

When Sun Chengwu pulled the arrow out, a stream of brown blood and a large amount of lung tissue gushed from the wound.

Seeing this, the bald man gave a thumbs up and exclaimed, "Brother, awesome!"

Old Ma also exclaimed, "The boss is indeed the boss, he single-handedly defeated the polar bear."

The other two Russians also praised Lianlian.

Only Su Wanqing anxiously checked Sun Chengwu's body, asking, "Are you injured?"

Sun Chengwu shook his head. "I'm fine."

At this moment, Old Ma, who was standing to the side, suddenly went limp and collapsed.

The crowd gasped in surprise.

Sun Chengwu checked Lao Ma's physical condition and found that he had just fainted, had a slightly elevated body temperature, and had no external injuries.

Sun Chengwu said, "Boiling water and cooking meat, he hasn't eaten for too long."

There was a grove of trees not far away, and the bald man led his brothers to chop wood.

Sun Chengwu dug a snow pit in the ground and used the accumulated snow to build a simple windbreak around it. He took out the deerskin from his backpack and spread it on the ground to keep warm.

This survival backpack has saved Sun Chengwu more than once.

Sun Chengwu first lit the oil cloth, then took out a small iron box and started boiling water.

This is the last piece of fuel tarpaulin in the survival backpack. There aren't many fuel tarpaulins left, after all, they've been used for more than half a year. If it weren't for an emergency, Sun Chengwu wouldn't be willing to use them at all.

Soon after, the snow inside the tin box melted into water and steam rose from it.

Sun Chengwu placed the iron box aside and waited for it to cool down.

By this time, the bald man and the others had already returned carrying firewood.

Light the dry firewood with an oil-soaked cloth, and the flames will ignite, bringing warmth.

Sun Chengwu took the food out of his backpack and distributed it to everyone.

Although the bald man didn't help much, he came along, which showed his sincerity. Besides, these Russians helped them find people quite a bit, so they should be paid for their hard work.

Sun Chengwu got two extra pieces of meat from the bald man.

The bald man's eyes lit up when he saw the meat, and he praised, "Brother, I really like you Chinese people. Everyone is very generous, capable, and easy to get along with."

You have no idea how many people starved to death. We went three days without eating nine meals, and it took us a long time to get a bite of meat.

"If I had known you brothers had meat to eat here, I would have told the boss long ago and brought my men to join you."

Sun Chengwu glanced at him indifferently and said, "Once we get to the camp, just don't cause trouble. We welcome friends, but if you have any bad intentions, I certainly won't care about saving face."

These words were too blunt, and the bald man was a little embarrassed. "Yes, yes, you already told me that last time."

After I went back, I told the boss about what happened here, and the boss decisively decided to bring his men to join you.

We're strong, we're not afraid of hardship, all we need is food and shelter.

Sun Chengwu nodded, "There will be plenty to eat."

Sun Chengwu had a fairly good impression of these Russians. In addition, the fact that Northeast China and Russia could trade with each other and cross the border, and that they had business dealings on a regular basis, added a lot to their appeal.

In the last incident between Baldy and Lao Diao, Baldy wasn't aggressive either. After the misunderstanding was cleared up, the two even exchanged some information.

If it were anyone else, Sun Chengwu definitely wouldn't have agreed.

After all, there were more than a dozen people; if they really caused trouble, he would be in serious trouble.

Once the water had cooled to a warm temperature, Sun Chengwu picked it up and fed some to the old horse.

Old Ma drank some water, coughed a few times, and finally woke up.

He looked at Sun Chengwu resentfully, "Boss, I'm choking on the bill."

Sun Chengwu smiled and said, "I've never done this kind of work before."

It's okay, you're still alive.

Sun Chengwu tossed him the meat that had just been heated up and said, "Eat something first, I'll go cut some fresh meat."

Sun Chengwu climbed out of the snow pit and came to the side of the polar bear's carcass.

The body had hardened, and the blood had frozen into ice.

Sun Chengwu took out a short knife, cut open the fur on the polar bear's belly, and cut off several pieces of fresh meat.

The cold wind was still blowing, mixed with snowflakes, and the sky was covered with dark clouds. It looked like a blizzard was coming.

At this point, it was too late to return to Sun Chengwu's own camp, so they could only keep moving forward to the village of the Hadza people.

When Sun Chengwu returned, he put the meat on the fire to roast and said to everyone, "A blizzard is coming. We have to keep going, or we'll freeze to death if we get stuck on the road."

Everyone agreed, "You decide, we'll listen to you."

After they ate some simple food, Sun Chengwu took out a rope, tied up the polar bear's carcass, and together they pulled the polar bear along the road.

Less than three hours after we started walking, the cold wind suddenly stopped, and snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

Sun Chengwu looked up and could no longer see the aurora. The thick, dark clouds were heavy and seemed to press down at any moment, making it hard to breathe.

He judged that this blizzard would definitely be significant.

If the cold wind is mixed with snow, it's just ordinary snow.

The sudden stop of this cold wind indicates that the cold air is sinking and the warm air is rising. When the warm air comes into contact with the clouds, that's when the heavy snow falls.

When hot air comes into contact with cold air, strong convection occurs, which can cause strong winds and even hail.

Sun Chengwu's judgment was correct. They continued walking for more than two hours, and the wind picked up again, even stronger than before.

What fell from the sky were not snowflakes, but ice pellets the size of rice grains, a sign that hail was imminent.
