Chapter 517 (1/2)
”Before it's all dark, let's set up the camp. We should move quickly and avoid the snowstorm first.” Liu Qian was still very calm. He had already made up his mind about how to spend the night and avoid the snowstorm.
”Build a camp? Here?” Anna stared at Liu Qian with wide eyes. There were no trees or stones in the place where there were no shops behind the village. Everything she saw was snow. Except snow or snow, how to build a camp?
Is it to build a house with snow? Too much work, isn't it? It's okay to build a snow wall. The problem is how to build a roof? And can the house withstand a snowstorm at night? If the snow wall is blown down, won't everyone be frozen to death?
”Master Liu, why don't you take out Your scepter and poke a big cloud hole in the sky. The snowstorm will disappear. Maybe there will be sunshine.” Guo Tian came over and looked at Tian and whispered to Liu Gan.
”I've tried. The scepter is limited to changing the weather in quiet city.” Liu Qian shook his head.
”Oh... It seems that we can only build houses.” Guo Tian looked very sorry.
Liu Qian took out the snow shovel and poked around in the snow. Then he observed the surrounding environment. Finally, he chose a slope as the place to build the camp tonight. According to the wind direction, the snow mound up to tens of meters in front will block most of the power of the snowstorm for them.
”What do we do now, Master Liu? Do we build a house with snow bricks?” Guo Tian approached Liu Qian and asked for instructions.
”If we don't build a house, we have to dig a snow hole here. Building a house in the snow has a large amount of work, and it's easy to collapse after being blown by the snowstorm, but we don't worry about digging a snow hole to hide. This place is located on the leeward slope, and the snowstorm can't blow here. It's safe and warm to hide in the snow hole.”
Liu Qian tried to dig up the snow on the slope with a snow shovel. After a while, he dug out a snow hole and tried the snow wall around the snow hole. Obviously, it was just soft and hard. It's hard to dig if it's too hard. If it is too soft, the hole dug is easy to collapse. Now this hardness is most suitable for snow cave camp.
After a while, Guo Tian took the snow shovel in turn and dug it up. Liu Qian was still busy after giving the snow shovel to Guo Tian. Instead, he continued to dig in the snow with an iron hand. The speed and efficiency were no less than Guo Tian with a snow shovel.
”Who on earth is this Liu Ye? That's ok?” Qian Zhou watched Liu Qian dig the snow with his bare hands, and didn't stop for several minutes. He couldn't help staring.
”Liu Ye is a man harder than iron.” Anna replied to Qianzhou.
”You know him very well...” Qian Zhou gave Anna a meaningful look.
”Of course.” Anna was very proud to return to Qianzhou, and suddenly felt that Qianzhou's tone was not quite right.
forget it. Still don't explain.
The snow on the slope is very thick and easy to dig. In a short time, the snow hole was dug to more than one person's depth. The excavated snow was stacked on the upper edge of the snow hole by Liu Gan and tamped for wind protection, but more than one meter was left from the snow hole to prevent it from collapsing and blocking the entrance of the snow hole.
The night on the snow mountain is very dangerous. You can't travel at night against the snowstorm. It's difficult to identify the direction at night, and hypothermia will make people more tired. At this time, you must find a place to rest.
