The team began to move forward slowly.

The surroundings were 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 reason was that there was no shelter around the sled. If the speed was too fast, Song Haitao and others sitting on the sled would not be able to bear it

. Of course, this was also to ensure that Song Qian and Qin Lang, who were pulling the sled manually, could 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 tightly in his hand, and reminded:

"Left, 45 degrees, go straight!"

In just less than ten minutes, snowflakes were already hanging on his eyelashes and mask.

Jiang Yan bought a lot of snow goggles, but most of them were her own size.

Only a few were large and small, and some were bought for men and women.

You can't look at the snow with your naked eyes for too long in the snow, otherwise you are prone to snow blindness, so Jiang Yan basically distributed these snow goggles to the soldiers who were walking guards.

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 they couldn't help but look around out of curiosity, they would

just glance at it casually and then look away. The soldiers walking around the sled walked while looking around with vigilant eyes.

The snowflakes were still falling, and the surroundings were empty and boundless.

The more such an environment, the more dangerous the mutant animals or humans that appeared.

So no one dared to take it lightly.

Jiang Ye walked at the end of the team. He held two trekking poles in his hands and walked a little hard.

After feeling that the sled behind him was not too heavy, Song Qian directly took on the task of pulling the sled alone.

Two hours later, Jiang Yan found that the density of meteorites in the snow had obviously decreased.

Ye Qing and Song Qian also found it.

The soldiers in charge of vigilance also noticed it.

"These meteorites are heading for crowded places?"

"They should be."

"Damn, these people should be torn into pieces!"

Song Haitao's eyebrows relaxed slightly, "But this also means that we have reached the suburbs of Dongshan."

"Doctor, then haven't we already walked one-third of the way?!"

"Yeah." Song Haitao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Being able to walk smoothly from Nanpanjiang to the suburbs in the white snow, at least it means that the direction they chose is not wrong.

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 stronger." He said.

"It's normal. The altitude over there in Phoenix Mountain is higher than the urban area, and the temperature will be lower." Sun Jingtao continued.

"Hey, what is that?" Kong Wu saw at a glance that under a black meteorite not far away, there seemed to be an animal corpse.

The animal was as big as an adult elephant, with thick black hair and what seemed to be horns. The rest of the body was covered by meteorites and ice and snow.

Hearing this, Jiang Yan and Ye Qing slowed down the car.

"I'll go take a look." A soldier who was closest to them said, 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 excitedly said to everyone, "Wow! Comrades, come on! We're rich!"

After that, he took out the ordnance shovel and began to dig the snow quickly around the animal's body.

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 shoulder.

The people sitting on the sled wanted to get off and take a look, but then they found that their legs had been frozen for a long time, so they could only choose to stay and watch.

Seeing that the animal had exposed most of its frozen body, Song Qian took a closer look and analyzed:

"This animal is a bit like a yak. ​​However, isn't it only found on those plateaus? How come there is also one in Dongshan?"

"Normal. Aren't those snow geese captured by Ye Qing before also only found in the North Pole?"

"Wow! Isn't that a great tonic? We can have an extra meal tonight!"

"However, this one weighs hundreds of kilograms. I'm afraid it's a bit unlucky."

"You're still worried about the food. I'll drag it back even if I want." A soldier volunteered and just finished speaking when Kong Wu said, "The fur of this cow is very thick. Since I have sharp eyes and discovered it, can I apply for a cowhide coat?"

Everyone couldn't help laughing, "Ye Qing and Jiang Yan killed so many snow wolves and got so much snow wolf fur, but they didn't keep it all for themselves."

Kong Wu's ears blushed, and he wanted to explain, but he heard Jiang Yan laugh, "We are really lucky, this is a musk ox."

"Community cow?" Kong Wu was stunned, "Sister Yan, I'm also socially phobic."

Jiang Yan was amused by him and explained, "No, it's the musk of the musk ox. It is said that when this cow is in heat, the male musk ox will emit a musk smell from the glands in the 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 knew, but that Huabao's optical brain encyclopedia had found it.

"Musk ox is the largest herbivore in the North Pole. It has lived on our planet for 600,000 years. It is an ancient creature left over from the Ice Age.

If it hadn't been hit by this meteorite, it would have lived very well in this extremely cold weather."

"Do you think this is a gift from nature?"

"It must be!"

Although this musk ox has been dead for a long time.

However, in such extremely cold weather, it is like being placed in a natural refrigerator, without any deterioration.

"Digging this ox reminds me of the scene of digging yam in my hometown." A soldier's eyes were red.

A casual remark made everyone's originally hot mood suddenly sink.

Zhao Yougong stopped digging, stood still, glanced at his wife in the wind and snow in the distance, and then looked at 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, 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 an ordnance shovel and knocked on the musk ox a few times, and the huge monster fell down with a "bang".

More than a dozen men raised their hands and feet and directly pulled the huge monster out of the ice pit.

Song Qian and Qin Lang volunteered, "Jiang Yan, Xiaoye, your sleds are full, we will be responsible for pulling this ox."

Everyone was surprised, "This is several hundred kilograms!"

Kong Wu stepped forward, "Don't be afraid, I will help too."

"Me too." Sun Jingtao also said.

"Forget about you, Old Sun. You still need to heal the wound on your shoulder." Song Qian said to Kong Wu,

"You don't need it for the time being. You don't know that the friction between this sled and the ground is very small. Once it is pulled up, it is very easy."

Qin Lang echoed, "That's right, a little effort can move a lot. That's what we are talking about."

After hearing this, everyone wanted to try it.

However, before that, the musk ox must be tied up first.

There were too many people, and Jiang Yan did not choose to put the giant into the space in front of everyone.

"There is strength in numbers. This ox was lifted up so easily." To everyone's surprise, more than a dozen people lifted the musk ox without any effort. Everyone was surprised for a second.

Jiang Yan watched quietly from the side the whole time, smiling and not saying a word.

"Hua Bao, you did a good job!"

She praised Hua Bao, who secretly stretched out vines to help several people. (End of this chapter)
