Grandma, wiping away tears, flipped the dough in the pan.
"Xiao Yuan loves my pancakes the most, so I'll prepare more for him this time."
After saying this, Grandma couldn't help but shed tears again, and Xiaoshan's mother and Lu's mother tried to comfort her for a while, but to no avail, and they also started to cry.
Xiao Shan was actually feeling somewhat bitter inside, after all, she hadn't been reunited with Lu Yuan for very long, and now she had to face this separation again.
Actually, she wanted to travel with Lu Yuan and the others, but her whole family objected.
"No, I absolutely cannot let him go on this risk alone this time. He has to come along."
Thinking of this, Xiaoshan couldn't help but use the knife to cut the beef into several pieces.
Lu Yuan and the others ate dinner early and prepared to go to sleep. The next day's journey would be quite arduous, and they needed to ensure they got enough sleep.
Looking at Lu Yuan lying to the side, Xiao Shan's big, blinking eyes were fixed on him.
Only after Lu Yuan began to snore softly did Xiao Shan quietly lift the blanket and get out of bed barefoot.
Upon entering the storage room, Xiao Shan tiptoed to the shelf and pulled out a backpack covered in dust, with her name tag still attached. This was a mark that Lu Yuan had specially made to prevent team members from getting lost.
However, Xiaoshan's backpack had hardly been used and was still brand new. She gently picked it up and patted off the dust.
Then Xiaoshan went to the kitchen and put the extra beef and food she had prepared into her backpack. She then opened another compartment and put some snacks, medicine, and weapons for self-defense inside.
To ensure she was absolutely safe, Xiaoshan even prepared a spare pair of shoes, knowing that feet are most susceptible to frostbite in such extremely low temperatures.
If you really encounter a blizzard, then one pair of shoes is definitely not enough. Sometimes, wearing too many layers of clothing may cause you to sweat, and sweating can be extremely dangerous, as the cold weather can freeze the sweat on your skin.
The frozen sweat will continuously absorb heat from the body until all the body's heat is drained.
Initially, mild frostbite may occur, followed by some physical discomfort, such as hypothermia caused by low temperatures.
This could lead to amputation, because at that time the person's body is passively numb and they cannot feel their limbs or body at all. If not treated in time, they may freeze to the point of necrosis.
Having spent so much time with Lu Yuan, Xiao Shan had gradually absorbed some of his influences, even though she hadn't been particularly interested in these things before, and had even felt some aversion to them.
But she knew these things were life-saving items. Lu Yuan had told her about them many times, and she had gradually memorized them. Especially when they set off to find Lu Yuan last time, they almost died on the way. These things had become extremely important to her.
The next morning, as soon as the alarm clock rang once, Lu Yuan immediately got out of bed, but Xiao Shan next to him seemed to be sleeping quite soundly.
Turning his head to look at Xiao Shan beside him, Lu Yuan smiled sweetly, gently tucked the blanket in, then lightly kissed Xiao Shan's forehead before leaving the room.
The wind outside grew stronger, howling and whistling through the door.
After getting dressed, the whole family got up and were ready to go. In addition to Xiwen and the others, Lu Yuan's father, Xiaoshan's father, and Zhou Tong and the others were also with him.
To be on the safe side, Lu Yuan specifically instructed Da Huang to take good care of the camp. Da Huang nodded obediently. Although it couldn't speak human language, it could understand most of what Lu Yuan said.
The group stood in the wind and snow, wearing thick cotton-padded clothes.
"Have you brought everything?"
After scanning the crowd, Lu Yuan began to inspect some other equipment.
"Skiboards, makeshift wheels, food, thermos flasks, emergency alcohol, medicine, climbing axe..."
Lu Yuan checked all the items one by one. This time he carried a lot of things, and everyone brought some items, which were particularly heavy. However, Lu Yuan had actually made another backup of these items, which was stored in his dimensional space.
In order to travel light and not slow down the team, Lu Yuan tried to prepare as little as possible this time to reduce everyone's burden.
After all, everyone was wearing heavy cotton-padded clothes, which made walking quite inconvenient. If they carried too much stuff, their journey might really be slowed down because of the amount of luggage.
"Team One is ready."
"Team Two is ready. Please give instructions."
"The three teams have completed their inspections; nothing has been missed."
Lu Yuan checked the number of people in the three teams again to make sure there were no problems, then waved his hand and shouted, "Let's go!"
Then the group put on their respective windproof masks and hats.
When they reached the valley entrance, everyone felt that the wind resistance was particularly strong, and every step felt like climbing a mountain, which was quite difficult.
Although the cold wind was blowing fiercely outside, the group no longer felt particularly cold. To prevent everyone from sweating too much, Lu Yuan basically had everyone stop and rest every now and then.
Meanwhile, in Lu Yuan's private cave.
Xiao Shan sat in the middle of the restaurant, absentmindedly ate a few bites of food, and then lost all interest in eating.
