Arctic survival, starting in hell at minus fifty degrees Celsius

Richard suddenly broke down.

It wasn't because he saw that Sun Chengwu and the others were doing so well; it was simply because this journey had been too arduous.

His companion also died on the road.

He couldn't even bury his companions; whether the others could survive depended on whether he could find Sun Chengwu and the others.

Su Wanqing handed over another bottle of hot water.

After handing it to him, Sun Chengwu reassured him, "Drink slowly, we'll talk about it later."

Richard wiped away his tears, ignoring the scalding water, and drank it in large gulps.

He took a couple of sips and then paused for a moment.

He brought his nose close to the tin can and smelled it, then his eyes lit up.

Then he saw the bones that everyone had gnawed on by the fire.

He couldn't help but swallow, his eyes gleaming, and he asked hesitantly, "You...have meat to eat?"

Sun Chengwu nodded, "Barbecuing takes time. If you're hungry, I can grill some for you."

Richard pursed his lips, hesitated for a long time, and finally suppressed his desire, shaking his head and saying, "No...no, I'm not hungry."

However, his constant swallowing betrayed his true thoughts.

Sun Chengwu gave Lin Can a wink.

Lin Can walked past Richard and went out.

Richard knew perfectly well what she was doing outside, but this time, he chose to acquiesce.

He was so hungry.

Sun Chengwu asked, "How did you find this place?"

Richard's attention was drawn back, and he swallowed hard as he said, "It was...it was Guan Fulin who said you were here, but he said you were in the woods. I went to the woods first, but I couldn't find you."

But...but we saw a brown bear.

Old Zhang got caught and eaten by a brown bear... He was eaten alive right in front of me, and he told me to run fast, saying that one of us had to survive and find him...

I had no choice; at that time, I had to abandon him.

He covered his eyes in pain, his eyes were bloodshot, there were lumps in his eyes, and there was yellowish-brown discharge in the corners of his eyes.

But Sun Chengwu could tell that it wasn't eye boogers, but rather thick, hardened discharge.

Richard also developed snow blindness.

Richard rubbed his eyes hard, tears mixed with pus streaming down his face. He blinked a few times, his eyebrows furrowing, clearly in pain.

Sun Chengwu raised his hand and waved it in front of him.

Richard stared intently at him and asked, "What are you doing?"

Sun Chengwu said, "Let's see if you're blind or not. You know your eyes are inflamed, right?"

Richard sniffed and nodded, "I know. I've been out for almost a week. I've run out of food and have been eating grass and leaves the whole way."

On the fourth day, my eyes started to feel a little uncomfortable.

When I woke up yesterday, I almost couldn't open my eyes because they were covered in eye boogers. It took me ages to tear them off.

Sun Chengwu said, "You have snow blindness. If this continues, you will go blind."

Hearing that he was going to go blind, Richard was a little scared, but he still remembered his mission. He grabbed Sun Chengwu's hand and said, "Brother Sun, you are younger than me, so I'll take advantage of you and call you brother."

Now that you have meat to eat and a place to live, can you help us?

We haven't been doing well since you left the card; many people caught colds after the temperature dropped.

Some people survived, while others died.

Later, everyone got separated, and Li Mu finally managed to gather them together, and also recruited some other survivors.

Originally, we could rely on lichens and mosses to fill our stomachs, and occasionally catch a fish to barely maintain our survival needs.

However, during this period, the weather first turned cold, and then it snowed, freezing the moss to death and covering the lichen with ice and snow.

In addition, as our numbers increased, the lichens in the vicinity were all eaten up, and food became increasingly scarce.

Li Mu had no other choice but to ask us to come to you for help.

You're a good person, you'll definitely help us, right?

Sun Chengwu stared at Richard, his eyes unreadable, and suddenly asked, "When did Guan Fulin return?"

Richard thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "It must have been about five or six days after they got separated before they were found. He found three people at that time."

At this point, Richard suddenly remembered something and took out something wrapped in a T-shirt from his clothes.

Richard said, "I don't know what's in here either, but he said to give it to you."

He also said that this was very important to him and begged me to bring it to you.

Sun Chengwu took it, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

He opened it in front of Richard, revealing a plastic bag.

Tearing open the plastic bag revealed a piece of meat that was already frozen solid.

Sun Chengwu was stunned when he saw the piece of meat.

Not only him, but Lin Can, Huang Shi, and Su Wanqing were all stunned.

Huang Shi pointed at the piece of meat and said, "This...this is..."

Sun Chengwu nodded. "It's meat."

Huang Shi scratched his head, a conflicted expression on his face. "This guy really does what he says."

Sun Chengwu also fell silent.

The meat wasn't put in one piece, but rather added in little by little.

There is rabbit meat, fish meat, fox meat...

The colors of these meats are also different.

It's clear that he saved up for a long time by living frugally.

In such an environment, just look at Richard to know how hard they lived; sometimes they couldn't even get lichen to eat.

The fact that Guan Fulin was able to collect this much meat is enough to show how much effort he put in.

It was because when Sun Chengwu gave him food, he had promised to return it to them.

As a result, he disappeared the next day.

Sun Chengwu also said at the time that he trusted Guan Fulin and would definitely repay this favor to them when he had the chance.

I never expected it to happen in this way.

Richard was stunned for a long time when he saw the meat.

He couldn't understand why Guan Fulin would save up so much meat to give to Sun Chengwu and the others when resources were so scarce.

Could it be that one of them is his girlfriend?

Or perhaps a relative?

Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense.

Sun Chengwu put the meat away and asked, "How is he?"

Richard shook his head and said, "After he went back, he didn't like to talk much. He only has one close friend, and I don't know much about him."

But according to the three people who came back with him, he is a very loyal and affectionate person.

We often saw him secretly crying alone at night, and no one knew why, nor did he say anything himself.

This was originally his idea to come.

But Li Mu disagreed.

He needs Guan Fulin by his side to help him.

So he sent me here. This is the first time he's spoken to me. To get my help, he even gave me a small piece of meat to eat on the way.

Richard looked at the meat in Sun Chengwu's hand with mixed feelings.

If he had known on the way that it contained dried meat, he definitely wouldn't have been able to resist taking a bite.

However, he did keep his promise and did not open the package, so there is no assumption that he stole the food.

Sun Chengwu originally didn't want to help them.

But seeing this piece of meat, he felt a mix of emotions and didn't know what to do.
