Manor Romance

Chapter 147 Thin Ice Layer

"What's the matter?" Except for Yunli, Wang Chengyuan is the calmest person. Even in this atmosphere of unknown fear, he is still thinking about the problem on the route, thinking of countermeasures to get everyone out of the predicament as soon as possible. The person who was going through the wind and waves, but Yun Li suddenly stopped for some reason, he almost ran into him without noticing in time, and asked what happened after he stabilized his footsteps.

"There is a thin ice area in front of it. The area is not small. It seems that it can't bear the weight of a person. If you walk forward, it will easily break and fall into the ice water. We have to find a way to get over it." Yunli explained. .

"Thin ice? There's bone-chilling water under here. It's not a joke to fall. We can use tents to make air cushions to cross over. It happens that a few of them are inflated. It's just that this is different from crossing the river. If no one is on the opposite side If you give it a tug, it's easy to get stuck in the middle.

Wang Chengyuan didn't delve into how Yunli judged the thin ice area, but trusting his companions was the only option in this situation, and he immediately came up with corresponding countermeasures, but it was not easy to implement.

Soon everyone arrived and knew the current predicament. They took a look at the area ahead with their flashlights. In some places, the flowing river water could be seen through the ice layer. It is conceivable how weak it is. If you step on it, something will happen.

After rushing all the way, they didn't have much energy to think, they were all bending over and panting, especially Qi Shi, his goggles broke a lens on the way, and it looked awkward to see the road, so he just took it off Come down, but his deep myopia is a hidden danger in this low-light environment. After falling a few more times, he still put on the broken goggles.Rarely had the opportunity to stop, he simply threw his luggage on the ground, sat up on his buttocks, hunched over and panted heavily.

"Uncle Yuan, please go and put together the inflatable tent and make it into a shape that can carry people. I will find someone to get it on the opposite side in terms of pulling force." Yun Li ordered Wang Chengyuan, and squatted down to open the rucksack, rummaged through Useful stuff inside.

"Looking for someone, who is it?" Wang Chengyuan and the others asked in unison.

"It!" Yun Li hugged the snow wolf dog next to him with his arms, and secretly tickled him a few times with electromagnetic force, making him wag his tail comfortably.

Everyone didn't know what his plan was, but time was tight, so they didn't ask too much. Wang Chengyuan immediately directed everyone to take out the inflatable tents, stack them all together, and arrange them in a rectangle.And Yunli pulled out two safety ropes, tied them to a small ice chisel, let the snow wolf dog slowly crawl towards the opposite side with the small ice chisel in its mouth.

The snow wolf dog is very smart, it acts according to Yunli's request, and looks back from time to time to see if Yunli has other instructions. Yunli makes it go as far as possible to the right, and finds the mute, and uses gestures to instruct it to avoid weak spots .They didn't dare to speak loudly, not because they were nervous, but because the vibration of their voices could easily cause the ice to resonate and cause it to break, so keeping quiet in this environment was the safest way, and everyone understood this truth.

The snow wolf dog is much lighter than a human, and with Yunli's command, it passed through the thin ice area nearly 20 meters long. Yunli shined a flashlight on a protruding rock on the opposite side, and sent a message to the mute, let him He gestured to instruct the snow wolf dog to go around the rock for a few times, and then put down the little ice chisel.

The snow wolf dog acted according to plan, and when it was far away, Yun Li slowly pulled the safety rope, and after a while, the little ice chisel was caught on the bump on the rock, very secure.

Wang Chengyuan and the others had already tied up the inflatable tent. Yunli tied two safety ropes to the two corners of the tent respectively, and another one was brought from Wang Chengyuan's place to tie the other corner on the opposite side. He handed the rope to Wang Chengyuan, and he lay directly on top of the tent, pulled the other two ropes to drive the tent forward, and quickly passed through the thin ice area along the route of the snow wolf dog just now. .

Seeing that Yunli came over smoothly, the Snow Wolfdog was about to pounce on him. If Yunli and Dumb hadn't repeatedly signaled it not to bark, it would have been so happy that it would have carried itself away.

After successfully crossing the thin ice area, Wang Chengyuan pulled the tent back. The second person to set off was Cai Qi. She imitated Yunli's action just now and lay down on the tent. Yunli was pulling from the opposite side, and she arrived smoothly. across.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Chengyuan, Wang Dongcheng and Dumb all arrived at the opposite side one after another, and Lao Yang stayed behind, so it was Qi Shi's turn next. Since he was the most important of all, when it was his turn, everyone held their breath Breathe, afraid of what might happen at the last minute.

Qi Shi has a big belly and doesn't like to lie on his stomach, so he just lay on his back in big characters, very chic. When everyone was pulling him, they obviously felt the weight was different, so they slowed down appropriately and moved more carefully. cautious.

When Ke Ke walked to the middle zone, the sudden "crack" sounded everyone's tense nerves. Yun Li made a decisive decision and pulled the rope with all his strength, trying to pull Qi Shi before the ice broke. Come here, originally this was a feasible solution, but Qi Shi was startled by the sound, and turned over unconsciously to look down. It was because of this action that the tent lost its balance, half of his body fell into the icy water, and let out a cry. There was a terrible scream.

"Boss Qi, hold on to the tent and don't let go, Lao Yang, tighten the rope and run to the left, hurry up!" Seeing this situation, Yun Li didn't care about keeping quiet, and instructed them loudly.

Lao Yang is also a person who has experienced many battles. As soon as he heard Yunli's call, he immediately started to execute it. Yunli pulled the rope on his side and followed Lao Yang to the left. The two of them were like swinging on a swing. The tent and Qi Shi were picked up, but the nearby ice cubes were already full of cracks, and there was an ear-piercing "popping" sound. The two of them had a tacit understanding. When Lao Yang let go of the rope, Yun Li pulled it back with all his strength. , In a burst of crackling sound, Qi Shi was finally pulled to a safe area.

Although Yunli's actions were very fast, Qi Shi only soaked in the ice water for a short time, but in just such a short time, he walked through the gate of hell, his teeth were chattering from the cold, and his whole body was shivering. trembling.

Wang Chengyuan immediately brought him an oxygen bag, and the others took dry towels and clothing and equipment, and quickly dried and replaced Qi Shi. In this environment, it is absolutely not allowed to wear wet clothes, otherwise, it will take a long time to become a human. popsicles.

While they were changing Qi Shi's equipment, Yun Li also pulled Lao Yang over. The ice layer on the other side was thinner, but Lao Yang was short and far less heavy than Qi Shi, so nothing happened. Accident.

Looking back, the place where they came just now has become a pool of ice water. The broken ice cubes are floating on the water surface, pulsating slightly under the current, which reminds Yunli of the soda with ice that he usually drinks. If you want to try this, you have to pay a lot of price.

Although there was an accident, everyone passed through the thin ice area smoothly, but during the tossing period, the Ghost Meteor had come to a place less than [-] meters away from them, and Qi Shi's condition was not very good. But with the help of the mute, they still had the ability to move. After packing up their things, they set off immediately and continued to move west.

Their current situation can only be described as walking on thin ice. Walking on the glacier is also a last resort. If the ghost meteor is really a harbinger before the avalanche as rumored, then the fastest way to leave Xuefeng is to walk west along the glacier , these difficulties are nothing compared to encountering an avalanche.

The glacier they are in is very special, it flows from east to west, which is rare. The terrain of our country basically runs from east to west, and the east is flat and the west is steep, so most of the rivers run from west to east , into the great rivers and rivers, and finally reach the ocean.

The span of this kind of river running from east to west is definitely not too long, and most of the ending points are lakes and swamps. In this snow mountain, it is likely to lead to the ice lake. If you avoid the cave, you should be able to avoid most of the avalanches.

But what Yunli didn't expect was that this glacier actually had branches, and there were more than one branch. The further back, the more branches, criss-crossing like a web.The front ones are fine, Yunli can still tell which is the mainstream and which is the tributary, but in the end, there is really no time to stop and analyze slowly. After a brief discussion with everyone, he decided that whenever he encountered a branch, he would turn to the right. After this toss, Ghost Meteor got a lot closer to them.

Yunli's sense of direction has always been very good, but he was also confused in this labyrinth-like glacial river, let alone the others, but with Yunli leading the way, they don't have to spend much energy thinking about this problem , because they have no time to look around just to hurry, and it is good to be able to take care of themselves and not fall behind.

Now they have encountered a branch road again, and even Yunli doesn't know which one it is. The branch network of this glacier is more complicated than the breeding ditch on the Xiaolu Mountain in his manor. He doubts whether there is an end to it, or They have been walking in circles and have not found the right path. If this is the case, it will be futile to go on like this, and it will only be a waste of effort.

Yun Li just wanted to inform everyone about this situation, but suddenly, there was a loud "shua" sound behind him, and then the ground began to shake violently, and everyone was so frightened that they squatted down quickly to avoid falling. This situation lasted for about ten years It took seconds to calm down, and the surroundings returned to the previous state of silence.

"Is this an avalanche? Is the danger over?" Cai Qi asked with mixed feelings. The range of visibility in the dark night was limited, and they couldn't see what was going on behind them. All they could see were ghost meteors that were approaching.
