I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 486 Will We Die Here

It's snowing in the mountains, and the outside world is still summer. I don't know which climate is more representative of the real world. I just looked at Yang Sisi trembling in the snow... Gradually, a picture appeared in my mind : In a small seaside town, the heroine rides a bicycle along the sea, sweat and afternoon sun sprinkled on the endless asphalt road...

beautiful!It's like the splendor from the collision of winter and summer; it's also like a disturbed color, like a blurred vortex.

And I, for a moment, turned my head white in the snow; for a moment, I was full of vitality in the noisy summer.

"Mi Gao, I suddenly thought of a sentence, do you listen?"

"What?"

"Your tavern is already closed, and I froze to death on the long street full of joy!"

Against the falling snow, I looked at Yang Sisi in a dull way...

But she came back to me as if nothing had happened. After picking up the discarded air conditioner, she snorted back into the car.

She asked me for my mobile phone, and then she focused all her attention on the photo I just gave her... She laughed first, and then she was in tears.

Only then did I roughly understand what "your tavern is closed, and I froze to death on the long street full of joy" means.

……

I also returned to the car, then sat in the driver's seat, and lit a cigarette for myself. She didn't dislike me for doing so, but enjoyed the world surrounded by smoke more than I did, both real and illusory.

This is also good, so you don't have to see each other too clearly.

Some feelings are the most sad when you see them clearly.

I opened the window, threw my half-smoked cigarette outside, and started the car.

I said to Yang Sisi, "Get ready to go."

"The snow is still young."

"I'm afraid you'll catch a cold. A cold on the plateau can kill you... Let's hurry to Shangri-La."

Yang Sisi climbed from the back row to the co-pilot's seat again. While she was taking care of herself, she also covered my lap with the air conditioner; at this moment, my heart was warmer than my body!
……

The car drove another 20 kilometers, and the sky began to turn dark at this time.At the current speed that I can only drive 30 kilometers an hour, it will take two hours to drive out of these contiguous mountains; at that time, it must have been completely dark.

What scares me more than the night is the amount of remaining fuel; the fuel gauge clearly shows that it is only enough to run another 120 kilometers.

I don't know what road conditions are used to calculate the 120 kilometers. If it is the fuel consumption of mountain roads, we still hope to drive out. If it is the average fuel consumption, we will definitely not be able to go out.

Even though I had no idea, I didn't show this fear to Yang Sisi.I kept telling her that she could go out after crossing the next mountain, but in the end she became numb because there was no end in sight for the endless mountain road.

……

After driving like this for an hour, the sky has completely darkened, and the snow has stopped falling, but the remaining mileage of the fuel is only 60 kilometers. I have confirmed that this is the result calculated based on the average fuel consumption, and Driving such a mountain road can only support a maximum of 40 kilometers.

40 kilometers, is it really enough to go outside?
With such worries, I finally asked Yang Sisi who hadn't spoken for a long time: "Have you checked if your phone has a signal?"

"No."

"Are you using telecommunications?"

"Ah."

"Then look at mine again, maybe China Mobile already has a signal."

Yang Sisi picked up my phone and looked at it again, then shook her head...

The air is full of my tension and anxiety... I started to control the accelerator, not to accelerate quickly, and try to keep the car running at a constant speed to reduce the fuel consumption of the car.

Suddenly, the warning light that the car was about to run out of fuel came on, and my heart tensed subconsciously. Yang Sisi also came over to take a look, and then showed despair; she said to me: "Are we going to die in the mountains today?" , can't get out?"

"Don't talk nonsense, so many people drive from Lijiang to Shangri-La every year. I have never heard of it. Who died in the mountains because the car ran out of gas!"

"The ghost knows if we have gone the wrong way. It's been a long time, and we haven't seen a single car."

"It can't be wrong... Do you know how much it costs to dig a road out of the mountain?... Who would build a road that doesn't work here for no reason."

"Then when is the end? We have already entered the mountain before three o'clock... It is almost 08:30 now, I have never seen such a desperate road... Or, let's drive back, At least you know where you can go back!"

"Turning back is really a dead end...Let's persevere, after passing the mountain in front, we will definitely be able to get out."

"I really can't believe you anymore, you have said the same thing for the eighth time!"

I smacked my lips: "According to the time, it's almost time to drive out... It's okay, even if we can't drive out, there is no way we can't miss a car on the road, as long as there is a car passing by, we can go out. "

"Let it be your fate."

After finishing speaking, Yang Sisi leaned back in the chair very discouraged and stopped talking.

……

Going around from the back of a mountain to the front, I thought everything would become clearer, but where the headlights could shine, I still couldn't see the end of the mountain road; seeing the oil level that had bottomed out, I became more and more flustered.

Finally, after the car shook for a while, it gradually began to lose power. I knew it was out of gas... For safety, I pushed the car to a relatively open place, and then got out of the car to have a look.

The sight at night is very poor, and the places that can be seen are mountains besides mountains.

……

Back in the car, Yang Sisi was already wrapped in an air-conditioning quilt and shrank to the back row of the car. In order to survive, I also squeezed in the back row with her.

The so-called survival is not an exaggeration; at this time, the temperature outside the car has dropped to minus five degrees, and we have no hot water, no food, and no thick clothes. God knows if we can survive the night here.

Yang Sisi hugged me tightly, while I stared out of the car window dumbly.

It's no longer snowing outside, and I can even see the stars, but I don't know where I am... Except for the sound of the wind, everything is eerily quiet.

"Mi Gao, will we really die here... I'm so scared!"

"No... think about the alpine rhododendron you saw just now... it is exposed to wind and rain every day, we are much more comfortable than it, we have a car, like a small house... it can Live, why can't we?"

"It doesn't need to eat and sleep, can you?"

I was choked by Yang Sisi and had nothing to say...

After a long while, Yang Sisi whispered in my ear again: "Actually, I'm not that afraid of dying with you...Really, but you must hold me tight. I'm afraid that after we die, we will be separated... ..."

"Are you a fool? How can you die so easily!"
