Ice Season: Day 41 at Sea
At night, the temperature dropped sharply.
Heavy snow fell from the sky.
The next day, the entire forest was covered with snow, and the surroundings were white. The snow had stopped, but the temperature was even lower.
As we all know, it is colder when the snow melts than when it snows. When the snow melts, it absorbs the heat of the surrounding environment. When
the temperature reaches minus 15 degrees, the survival of the players becomes more difficult. If there is no food, the heat in the body can't support it for long.
But after the snow, many animals stopped coming out, making it more difficult to find food. The edge of the ice lake began to freeze, and the player could even walk to the center of the lake, saving the raft, but it was useless. In such a cold day, the fish would not bite the hook, not to mention that the player did not even have a decent bait, so it was difficult to catch fish.
Although it was such bad weather, Yun Mianmian's lucky number was 6: the lucky star was shining.
I don't know what good things will happen today.
Yun Mianmian blew a breath into her palm, rubbed her frozen hands, and prepared to make a fire.
It snowed so heavily that no one cared for the whole night. The fire in the closed stove had gone out, but the fire in the cabin was still burning. It was good that there was no need to light the fire again, otherwise it would take half an hour to use the flint.
The firewood that was chopped before was covered with waterproof cloth and was not wet by the snow water. It could be used as soon as it was taken out from under the waterproof cloth.
There was another advantage of snow. There was no need to fetch water. You could just boil a pot of snow water and drink it.
Yun Mianmian stewed a fish with snow water and asked everyone to drink a bowl of fish soup to warm up.
Shen Qianjue and the others didn't come in the morning. It was so cold that they got up early and ran over. It would be better to take a nap in the cabin and warm up by the fire.
To be honest, Yun Mianmian didn't want to get up either. This weather was perfect for sleeping, but when she saw that there were unfinished tasks, she got excited and wanted to hurry up to complete them.
Wen Yushi also said, "The weather is so cold. If we can find a hot spring, maybe we can take a comfortable bath."
Yun Mianmian: "If there are too many people, we probably won't be able to take a bath."
Wen Yushi sighed, "That's right!"
If another group also found it, and there were men, it would definitely not work.
Unless only their group found the hot spring.
Then she and Yun Mianmian could let Luo Ze and Du Changsong wait outside and enjoy it first.
Yun Mianmian: "Do you have any clues? Hot springs are usually near volcanoes."
Luo Ze: "When I was shooting puffins yesterday, I saw many birds flying eastward. Could it be that birds will go to the warmer direction there?"
Yun Mianmian: "It's indeed possible."
Wen Yushi: "Then why don't Luo Ze and I go look for it?"
Yun Mianmian thought it was okay, so she and Du Changsong stayed at home.
But Luo Ze said: "You were the one guarding at home yesterday, let me do it today."
He estimated that someone would come to steal things today. It was snowing so heavily, and people would be hungry and cold, and they would not care about anything for a little food.
Yun Mianmian: "Then send me the location, and I'll go look for it."
Luo Ze marked the place where Yun Mianmian shot the puffins yesterday on the map, and drew a direction for her to look for it.
Yun Mianmian packed up her things and asked Du Changsong to go with her.
She first went to Shen Qianjue's shelter and asked him if he wanted to go with her.
Shen Qianjue had just woken up and was about to boil some water to drink. When he saw Yun Mianmian coming over, he invited her to drink some hot water.
Yun Mianmian waved her hand and said that she had just drunk some in her own shelter.
"Okay, I'll go with you. I'll eat something and then leave."
Yun Mianmian said, "Then I'll go first. I've been waiting for you for too long to eat."
He hadn't even started yet.
Finally, Shen Qianjue said, "It will only take two minutes."
Shen Qianjue took a fish from the wooden rack, cut some sashimi, ate it directly, and then wiped his hands and mouth, "Okay, let's go."
It was because Yun Mianmian was here that he cut it and ate it. Normally, he would just bite it directly.
Seeing him move so quickly, Yun Mianmian didn't say anything.
Yun Mianmian: "Are you going with us alone?"
Shen Qianjue: "Yes, how many more do you want?"
Yun Mianmian: "I'm going to find hot springs. Do you have this mission?"
Shen Qianjue: "No, but I have a mission to find a volcano. I guess we're together. Let's go."
Yun Mianmian thought, no wonder he was willing to go.
However, being able to work in a group of three is better than just her and Du Changsong. Yun Mianmian doesn't expect Du Changsong to do anything, but he should be able to find things. One more person looking is always helpful.
On the way, Shen Qianjue kept asking questions, and Yun Mianmian replied in a disjointed manner.
Yun Mianmian would tell him about unimportant things, but she kept silent about the matters of District 3.
Just when the three of them arrived at the location of Luoze Biao, they suddenly heard the voice of the system.
[Airdrop boxes are about to be delivered!]
[Twenty airdrop boxes will be delivered to any point on the island!]
[Players can collect the supplies in the airdrop boxes by themselves. [
The items in the airdrop box include but are not limited to the following: rifles, hunting knives, machetes, bows and arrows, daggers, down jackets, down quilts, cooking oil, thermos cups, medical kits, heating pads, cold medicine, bear repellent spray, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, spice boxes, needles and thread...]
In addition to the sound, there are also text reminders on the panel.
All players stopped what they were doing and read these messages carefully.
Many people in the regional chat said:
"There are actually good things like airdrop boxes."
"If you pick one up, you'll be rich."
"Amazing, I thought there were only the first wave of basic supplies, but there are also welfare airdrops."
"There are only 20 airdrops, and not every group has them, so there will definitely be competition."
"Oh my god, I've already seen the airdrop."
@tInfinite good articles, all here
Yun Mianmian kept staring at the sky, and indeed saw some black spots.
It was probably an airdrop.
Shen Qianjue: "What do you mean? Why don't you grab two or three?"
Yun Mianmian: "Two or three, you are so arrogant."
Although Yun Mianmian thought so in her heart.
She and Shen Qianjue were two teams, how could they get enough points without two or three.
If they grabbed them, they could use them together.
I don't know if grabbing an airdrop will add points.
"You're talking big when you say two or three. I didn't even say four or five."
Yun Mianmian said speechlessly: "Then go pick up four or five and show me."
Shen Qianjue: "Hahahaha, then you have to cooperate with me. Let's pick up two first, and then we'll go and grab two more." Yun Mianmian
: "Let's talk about it after I pick up two."
She stared at the direction where the airdrop fell, and then sent a message in the group chat.
Yun Mianmian: "Luo Ze, if there is an airdrop over there, call me back immediately. I'll see if I can pick it up here."
Luo Ze: "Okay, Sister Mianmian, please be safe."
Yun Mianmian: "Yu Shi, if there is an airdrop near you, hide the food in the wooden house first, don't leave it outside."
The airdrop is coming, and everyone's attention is on the airdrop. Their group has no time to deal with players who are grabbing food. The idea they thought of last night will have to be implemented later.
After Yun Mianmian gave the instructions, she asked Shen Qianjue, "Have you arranged your team members?"
Shen Qianjue: "It's arranged. The three of them grab one, and I pick one."
Yun Mianmian heard him say it so easily, and she really didn't know how to evaluate it.
"Okay."
Time passed by little by little, and the location where the airdrop fell could be roughly judged.
The two airdrops closest to Yun Mianmian were on the left and the right.
Yun Mianmian and Shen Qianjue split up into two groups, Shen Qianjue went to the left, and Yun Mianmian and Du Changsong went to the right.
Yun Mianmian said to Du Changsong while running quickly: "If we get there first and there is no one around, just open the airdrop and you can take the things and leave."
"I go alone?"
"Yes, I'll stay."
Yun Mianmian had already thought about it. After taking the things, the airdrop was still there, and there must be people who were slower to come. Maybe she could see the other groups arguing, and she would just sit back and reap the benefits.
"But if we arrive later, or if we see someone coming this way, we should hide and observe nearby, and don't go forward rashly."
Du Changsong: "Ah? Are we going to ambush?"
Yun Mianmian: "Almost. The main thing is that we don't know if other groups have bows and arrows. If we are surrounded, it will be difficult to move with the airdropped supplies." Yun Mianmian
has already imagined several possibilities.
As they were talking, they were already very close to the airdrop.
And the airdrop not far away has not landed yet, which means that they are likely to be the first to find this airdrop.
Yun Mianmian's luck is very good today. She estimates that the people around are still far away. In this case, let Du Changsong take the airdrop and find a place to hide the supplies first.
The two of them sped up and stood under the airdrop before it landed.
Yun Mianmian stretched out her hand to catch the slowly falling airdrop.
The parachute carrying the airdrop disappeared, and Yun Mianmian also felt the heavy weight in her hand.
Yun Mianmian hesitated for a second, and immediately decided to leave here first.
"Let's go."
She changed direction and ran with the airdrop.
After she finished speaking, before Du Changsong could react, Yun Mianmian had already run several meters away.
She felt that there were a lot of things in this airdrop, and she might not be able to take them all here in a short time.
Let's go to a hidden place first.
She ran all the way, and Du Changsong could barely catch up with her.
Finally, she found a downhill slope, hid behind the hillside, and opened the airdrop.
The airdrop contained a dagger, a medical kit, a set of thermal clothing, a dozen heating pads, and various bottles and jars filled with seasonings.
Yun Mianmian was overjoyed.
Du Changsong was stunned.
"So many good things!"
Yun Mianmian looked around, wrapped the heating pads and seasonings in thermal clothing, and handed them to Du Changsong.
There were only bandages, gauze, medical tape, and a box of hemostatics in the medical kit. Yun Mianmian took all these things out and put them in her pocket.
Then she filled the medical kit with soil and put it back in the airdrop box.
Yun Mianmian put the dagger in the boot so that she could take it out at any time.
"You bury these things in a hole here, then find another place to hide and wait for my news."
"What about you?"
Yun Mianmian: "I'll go and airdrop again."
This sentence sounded scary.
Du Changsong was glad that Yun Mianmian didn't let him go with her.
"Then...then you be careful."
"Yeah."
Yun Mianmian nodded, "You hurry up."
Du Changsong hurriedly started digging. There was a layer of snow on the soil under the hillside. After digging away the snow, the soil underneath was very wet. He dug hard and dug out a hole in a short while.
But the hole was too shallow, so he was worried and dug hard for a while.
When he finally finished digging, Yun Mianmian had already walked a long way.
Yun Mianmian held the airdrop and returned to the place where she had just picked it up. Just as she was about to drop the airdrop, she heard a voice behind her.
"I saw it was going this way, how come it disappeared?"
