day8
After Xia Ning woke up, she did some simple stretching. After the "Cozy Cottage" competition ended, she didn't bother cleaning the house as much.
Therefore, the cottage was no longer cozy, but it became more human-like.
For breakfast, I had a bacon and cheese sandwich with hot milk. Xia Ning also added two slices of ham. In the cold environment, you have to eat high-calorie foods to maintain your energy.
With her thick-soled shoes crunching on the bare branches, Xia Ning swept the snow in front of the door to the base of the wall.
The system said that there would be other "hunters" at night, so Xia Ning paid close attention to the sounds at night. However, she did not hear any unusual noises until she fell asleep.
When I opened the door in the morning, I saw several different rows of footprints on the snow.
Xia Ning stepped into the snow, and her silly little sister followed suit and stomped her foot in as well.
The snow made a crisp, crunching sound.
Xia Ning silently looked at the slender four-finger mark next to the shoe print and dog print, whose owner was at least three meters tall.
Are there such animals on the ice sheet?
Xia Ning brought up her virtual interface: A-level protective shield, 55% energy remaining.
They were hoping to get a spot in the next round.
Alright, let's keep fighting.
Little sister: "Woof woof!"
It suddenly rushed out with great excitement and began digging at the roots of a tree not far from the cabin.
Xia Ning called out to it from afar, "Don't play with poop and pee."
My sister doesn't understand.
So my sister isn't angry.
The big white dog, its nose covered in snowflakes, grinned and happily brought out a hibernating snake.
Xia Ning: Wow!
Xia Ning: "Great, great, you're so good!"
The little sister swept the snow with her tail and excitedly circled around Xia Ning.
Xia Ning quickly sent a mail, gaining 30 survival points.
(￣ー￣)人(^▽^)
My sister got off to a great start, completing half of today's goal, with 6 question marks still to be unlocked.
Perhaps encouraged by Xia Ning, the younger sister walked rather carelessly from then on, and instead of properly clearing the snow, she insisted on hopping around, which resulted in her falling into a snowdrift.
When the snow is too thick, it's all flat as far as the eye can see, and you can't tell what's buried underneath or how deep it is.
Xia Ning had taken this into consideration, which is why she specially brought a snowball to scout ahead. Her younger sister had been behaving well the past few days, but she tripped and fell down today.
Xia Ning stood outside the pit, enjoying her sister's embarrassing moment for a while before easily carrying the 70-plus-pound Samoyed out.
After falling down, my little sister became much more obedient, walking and stopping intermittently, sniffing around with her nose.
In the afternoon, Xia Ning's younger sister led her to a black bear.
Logically, bears should be hibernating, but how could the game allow Xia Ning to hunt them so easily?
However, this wasn't Xia Ning's first time facing a bear. Previously, she needed to use an auxiliary medicine called "Corrupting Antidote," but now she could truly fight the bear head-on.
First there was Wu Song fighting the tiger, then Xia Ning killing the bear.
Amidst the biting wind, Xia Ning squatted down and hoisted the black bear onto her shoulder, feeling that she was no less capable than the Russians.
The survival point for black bears is 110, which is higher than that for moose.
Even without the support of a portable supermarket, Xia Ning could survive the winter with just these two prey.
On the way there and back, I caught two wild rabbits.
Xia Ning set up some traps on the snowfield, but due to her limited experience, her methods were rather crude; they were better than nothing.
In the regional channels, some skilled hunters sell their game, mostly rabbits and pheasants, with the occasional fox, but nothing else.
It's not that we can't hit them, it's that we don't want to reveal our secrets.
After all, the selection of cabins tells players that the rating and ranking are a matter of life and death.

day9
Weather forecast: "Snowing tonight."
The information remained unchanged, yet Xia Ning did not go out today.
Because the [Storm Predictor] she obtained in the sea instance went off, indicating a blizzard is coming today.
I gave my older sister Ji Li a heads-up this morning, telling her to stay in the cabin and not go out today.
In blizzard conditions, if one's mind is elsewhere, it is extremely easy to lose one's way and even lose one's balance and die in the snow.
Even if it's just a few meters away, you might not be able to walk back.
Large swaths of cloud shadows drifted across the vast snowfield; there was no wind outside the window, only silence.
Inside the wooden house, the younger sister suddenly became restless, leaning against the wooden door and barking at the sky.
This is a sign that a blizzard is brewing.
Xia Ning thought that even without the [Storm Predictor], judging from her sister's reaction, she probably wouldn't go out much.
Furthermore, it's likely that other players also have their own ways of avoiding suspicion.
Although no one was using a megaphone to shout "A blizzard is coming, everyone stay indoors!" in the group chat, the chat was unusually "lively" today, as players are usually busy hunting during the day. This suggests that most players chose to stay in their cabins.
Around noon, a blizzard struck.
The wooden house began to shake violently, and in a daze, Xia Ning seemed to be back on the sea.
Outside the window, everything was gray and gloomy, with terrifying howls constantly coming from all directions, and one could faintly hear the howls of wolves.
Xia Ning calmly thought, "That's right, one animal has been unlocked. I'll hunt wolves once the snowstorm passes."
The terror of a blizzard lies not only in the heavy snowfall, but also in the fierce winds. Winds from all directions can whip up the thick snow on the ground, causing snowflakes to blanket the ground like a sandstorm.
The already bare trees were completely bent over by the storm giant.
The outdoor temperature is constantly dropping.
Xia Ning filled the fireplace with coal and got into the car to prevent the cabin from being blown off by the strong winds.
To be honest, Xia Ning wasn't very confident in her cooking skills.
She could only hope that the wooden planks produced by the system would be sturdier.
My younger sister was grimacing in the back seat, seemingly engaged in a battle of wits with thin air.
Xia Ning quickly tossed it a chew toy, letting it slowly gnaw away to release its useless energy, lest it destroy the car.
Xia Ning had almost forgotten that her younger sister, who usually ran around and rolled around everywhere, was also a master at destroying things.
After an unknown amount of time, the wind outside gradually subsided, and the chaotic world was re-divided.
The fields returned to silence, with only the cold continuing to ravage the earth.
