After lunch the next day, the two began to prepare for a bath. Xia Yu shoveled the snow and carried it back to the tent, while Xiao Jiang was responsible for melting it and boiling it.
Hot water freezes faster than cold water, and it is much more difficult to turn ice and snow into hot water. The two of them worked for several hours before they finally boiled a large basin of water for a bath.
"Well, you wash first, I'll go check on the drilling rig."
Although he wanted to stay, Xia Yu's strong sense of morality prompted him to find a topic to talk about and leave the tent.
It was nothing for him to leave, but the camera left with him.
In the work tent, the drill was still roaring. It had now reached 500 meters of ice and would be able to complete the sample collection the day after tomorrow at the latest.
It’s really fast. Isn’t using a drill to find tombs better than a Luoyang shovel?
Drilling rigs are actually used in archaeological research, but tomb robbers don’t dare to do it in a big way.
Xia Yu also has a certain interest in archaeology. After this set of drilling equipment is used for scientific research, it can still be used in archaeology. After all, it is much lighter than those big ones. It can all be carried away by three sleds and does not take up much space.
"Senior, I'm done washing."
Xiao Jiang's voice came from the radio. Xia Yu looked at the time and saw that half an hour had passed. It was his turn to wash.
Back at the living tent, Xiao Jiang, who had just taken a shower, had wet hair and his fair face was now red, just like a lotus emerging from the water.
Hibiscus is another name for the lotus. How do you read that line in the poem? The little lotus has just shown its pointed tip, and a dragonfly has already landed on it.
Is Xia Yu a dragonfly? Forget it, he is obviously a big fly.
"I'm going out."
"Wait, wait until your hair is dry before going out, otherwise you'll catch a cold easily."
Seeing Xiao Jiang was about to go out, Xia Yu pulled her to the heater and turned on the exhaust fan of the tent to expel the moisture inside.
Taking a shower is just a small daily routine during travel, but the distance between us is constantly shortened in these daily routines.
After the 800-meter ice core was taken out, the drill continued to drill down 8.9 meters and brought back rock samples from the subglacial mountains.
The scientific research sampling work came to an end. Xia Yu and Xiao Jiang packed their luggage and prepared to visit Kunlun Station, less than 100 kilometers away.
The scientific expedition team members at Kunlun Station had already known about their arrival.
It turns out that having money is really a great thing. They can only carry out scientific research activities with the support of the country, and the only thing supporting Xia Yu is money.
In addition, the other party visited Kunlun Station in the name of scientific research exchange. It was said that they brought their own drilling equipment and successfully drilled deep ice cores. They didn't know how to describe it except that it was awesome.
Judging from the time, this great man should be here soon.
PS1: This chapter took me 7 hours to write, which is incredible...
