Live in Doomsday Wasteland

Chapter 146 Must Go Hunting

The snow still stopped.

It's impossible for this thing to go down endlessly. If that's the case, Chen Qi doesn't have to live broadcast the adventure, it's survival or something.

Insert an elevation board into the snowdrift, point the camera up, and broadcast the snow line elevation every day.

Maybe there are more people watching than now.

…………

"Grandma's, the snow has stopped, but the snow it has fallen is somewhat thick."

Previously, Chen Qi had popularized to his fans that this area would be accompanied by cooling and snowfall, or conversely, it would be accompanied by snowfall and cooling. At that time, Chen Qi said that the snow here might be heavy. big.

But there is one thing to say, the snow in front of me is indeed a bit heavy.

Looking at the snow that was almost waist deep in front of him, Chen Qi's expression was wonderful.

It can only be said that the snow was really not at the right time, and it was picking up his food, and it came to him when he was in danger of being interrupted.

Obtaining food was not easy in the first place, but now it is really difficult to go hunting through such thick snow.

"I have considered the issue of physical strength. Well... this is indeed a problem.

Assuming that I could walk to the riverside in an hour before, now it takes at least an hour and a half.

Not only has the time increased, but the physical exertion has also doubled. "

Chen Qi regretted eating so much just now.

"Now, let's deal with the problem at hand first.

Get rid of the snow at the door. "

The door of Chen Qi's cabin is his important "production base".

Usually, such an open space is needed as a venue for stacking logs, chopping firewood, and placing sledges.

Besides, he can't always cook barbecue in the house, there is a place, but every time he has to open the door, the heat released will take a long time to replenish.

Either way, the door still needs to be cleared out.Later he will build a shed for firewood.

……

Dealing with the snow on the ground does not sound like a very difficult task.

However, that is only if the right tools are available.

The only thing Chen Qi can shovel snow now is that multifunctional alloy shovel.

It is obviously impossible to rely on such a small shovel head to clear snow more than one meter deep.

Chen Qi also needs a professional tool.Except, of course, no one here could sell him a tool, so he had to make one himself.

"Bark is a great material and maybe we could make a bark dolly and support it with sticks at the back.

But the bark doesn't seem to be easy to get now, which is somewhat ironic for a person who lives in the forest. "

Have to use wooden planks.

However, Chen Qi has a more ruthless and direct method.

"What do you think of this!!"

Chen Qi's goal is his door panel.

Instead of using a saw to painstakingly cut out several wooden boards and nail them together, Chen Qi felt that his wide door panel was easier to use and more straightforward.

Anyway, this thing can be disassembled, and then it will be re-attached to the door frame.

Just do it!

Chen Qi quickly removed the door of his cabin.

In order to fix it and resist the intrusion of bears, Chen Qi used a lot of wood on the door panel, which can be used directly now. Just find a small piece of wood, put the door panel upright, and nail it together with the long bar.

To be on the safe side, Chen Qi also nailed an extra piece of wood to it, so that he could push the door panel with both hands to clear the snow.

The job was very simple and Chen Qi could finish it in a few minutes.

But the effect of pushing it up...

"I can't say it's not easy to use, it's just a bit, it seems too heavy!"

Generally, the large snow shovels used for clearing snow are made of light plastic and have a curvature. You can choose to start working from a certain height.

Even if the thickness of the snow exceeds the bucket depth of the shovel, you can clean the upper part first.The shovel can be pushed smoothly on the snow surface.

But Chen Qi can't do that.

A pile of wood and moss piled up the door panel, as soon as it was placed on the snow, it sank directly from the snow and hit the bottom on the spot.

If you push the snow like this, half of it will be missed.

As a last resort, Chen Qi could only erect the door panel that was originally horizontal, and pushed the two wooden handles up and down with his hands, and started his snow clearing work in a very inconvenient and extremely awkward way.

Not to mention, although it was very hard to push, the tired Chen Qi blushed and had a thick neck.

But this door panel is big enough!
It can be pushed out to a channel on the snow that is more than one meter wide in one trip.

Slow is a bit slow, and the effort is really strenuous, but judging from the results, it is acceptable.

…………

It took almost an hour and a half before Chen Qi cleared out the position of the door and replaced it with a complete open space.

Although the ground here is an extension of the previous big mound, Chen Qi also cleaned it up when digging holes and sawing trees, but it is still impossible for it to be comparable to the cement road and stone pavement deliberately built by humans. .

The large pile of snow had been dealt with by Chen Qi, but there was still a lot of snow on the ground, and the color of the land was basically not exposed.

"That's good. What kind of bicycle do you want? As long as it doesn't delay my work."

Chen Qi didn't have the time and thought to get another broom to clean up the place.

Raising his head, the snow had cleared and the sun finally appeared again. The air was so clear that the sun shone through so well that Chen Qi couldn't look at the sky well.

"Hey, it's sunny!
The weather here is really weird. There must be all kinds of strong winds in the sky now. "

After sighing about the weather, Chen Qi began to lower his head and crotch his waist, thinking about what to do next.

Right now, it's past twelve noon.

At this time, it would be nonsense to think of going hunting.

By the time he walked to the river and crossed the river, it might have been 01:30. At this time of year, it would be after four o'clock at most, and the sky would start to get dark.

For more than two hours, it would be too mysterious to hunt a certain deer or something.

Hunting is an option ruled out.Time is not allowed.

Go to the lake to see if it's frozen?

This is possible, but according to Chen Qi's estimation, it should be enough.

The temperature had just cooled down less than 24 hours ago. Although it had been around minus ten degrees before, Chen Qi, who was cautious to timid, still didn't think the ice on the lake could bear his 140 kilograms of weight.

Among the remaining options, it seems that it is not very advisable to find hay and berries by the way.

All that's left is to chop wood.

First, I can accumulate more firewood, and secondly, I can also get some grass back.

"It's such a happy decision!"

..............................

On this day, Chen Qi didn't do anything else, but dragged his dog back and forth to transport grass and wood back and forth.

Basically, two of the thigh-thick wood are attached to the sledge, one end is tied to the sledge, and the rest is dragged into the snow. It is still very easy for Chen Qi to pull it.

Because it had just snowed heavily, Chen Qi was still reassured that the outside environment was safe. He was somewhat greedy and did more work. He did not return to the cabin until it was completely dark.

In the evenings, he ate less and practiced archery by the light of the fire and his icing on the cake candlestick.

This day will soon pass.

………………

It was another morning.

This is already the 24th day since Chen Qi came here.

Although there is always a time mark on the mission log, and there is also a countdown mark in the live broadcast room, fans help him remember it clearly.

However, Chen Qi would still carve records with a knife on one of the trees in the cabin every day.

He said it was more ceremonial.

"Okay! Today is also a day full of hope for Special Code!"

Satisfied, Chen Qi carved the 24th scratch on the wall, and opened the live broadcast room full of energy.

Many fans who were waiting to watch Chen Qi's live broadcast welcomed Chen Qi with enthusiastic words such as [Why did you come here], [Did the staff just leave], [I ate braised pork ribs today], etc. Qi's broadcast.

"Okay! You sand sculpture fans, if you don't look at me, you will feel uncomfortable, right!
What does the pork ribs smell like... Well, well, don't talk about it!Master, I was wrong!I shouldn't have asked! "

Chen Qi got up quite early today, and woke up after five o'clock.

As a rule, you should first burn the stove, then boil the water, and then cook and eat.

However, today all these steps are skipped.

Chen Qi directly took out the knife, bow and arrow.

Also brought an axe.

"Just skip breakfast. I'm going to go hunting straight away!

Lighting a stove is also a waste of firewood.I will still worry about fire and other problems when I leave.Let’s talk about it when we come back. "

Chen Qi was really worried about his food.

Now that there is snow everywhere, not only he is worried, but other small animals must also be worried.

As it happens, they will inevitably go out to hunt, or find some grass or something.

"Hey, on the road today, you should not only pay attention to the traces on the ground, but also pay attention to the marks on the trees.

Not just porcupines, but birds too.

Who said there are no birds in forests in cold regions.

Besides, have you forgotten the cute little things like squirrels?

They are big food savers!

As long as you take a squirrel's stock and save some food, you will have food for a day or two.

Nuts or something, but serious high-calorie food! "

Although Chen Qi didn't accumulate much food before, at that time, he somewhat looked down on these little things.

But it's different now.

Being able to find something to eat is better than anything else!

Is it cute or not, just ask if this stuff can be eaten!

…………

The sledge must be taken away.

Chen Qi also hunted deer before, although a bear disturbed the situation, resulting in Chen Qi's so much food, he only brought back less than a quarter of it in the end.

However, even if he hunted deer again this time, this time without bears or other things to make trouble, a deer told the class that it would be several hundred catties.

It's still nonsense to expect Chen Qi to carry it back in its entirety.

I pulled all the wood and weeds yesterday, and the sledge was somewhat damaged.

However, Chen Qi had already repaired and strengthened it at night.

"I didn't run many places yesterday, and they were all nearby. I was unlucky. I turned over so many grasses and so on, but I didn't see any berries.

Hope to have a harvest today.

oh!By the way, you have to bring your fishing rod too. "

Chen Qi dragged the sledge, ready to go to the lake to have a look, and put the fishing rod there by the way.

“If I really go out all day today and get nothing, then when I come back, I will just sit here and fish!
Fish until night!Fishing until midnight!Fish for tomorrow! "

………………

It was the third time that Chen Qi "opened up" the road to the lake.

Fortunately, after this snowfall, it is estimated that there may not be another one for a long time. Otherwise, Chen Qi would step out of the road over and over again, and be covered by snow again and again, and he would definitely feel very uncomfortable.

"I estimate that this road will be unimpeded again in a few days.

Because these days, I will definitely take this road often. "

Chen Qi didn't say why he often walked this way. Fans speculated that it might be about fishing.

"It's here, it's all snow."

There is not much snow on the lake, but this is not a problem of being melted by water.

When it snows, it is always windy. Even now, standing in a place without trees, the wind is not too small.

After the lake was frozen, it was very smooth, flat and open, and the wind was stronger. The snow on the lake was not easy to keep, and was blown away by the wind.

"I don't really believe that the lake can freeze so hard now.

Under standard atmospheric pressure, ice can be formed when the temperature reaches zero degrees. The longer the low temperature, the lower the temperature, and the thicker the ice will be.

This lake has been frozen for more than ten days, and it will take 20 hours at minus 40 degrees.Just to be careful, let's try something first. "

Chen Qi waded through the snow, and came to the lake carefully, and tapped the ice on the lake with the wood he picked up.

"This sound, thump, thud, sounds very dull, as if the ice is very thick."

Chen Qi wiped the ice surface twice with his hands, and flung away the snowflakes on it. He lowered his head, pouted his buttocks, and looked carefully against the ice surface.

"This thing...you can't tell how thick it is...

Let's... try it? "

Sometimes, once you have a certain thought, no matter how rational your reason tells you about the danger, it can't stop the thought from constantly growing in your heart.

However, Chen Qi still took some measures to protect the details.

He came out this time with a rope.

One was tied to a tree by the lake, and the other was tied to his own waist.Chen Qi opened his hands, and carefully stepped on the ice surface by the lake with one foot, little by little, slowly exerting force until he completely stepped on the ice surface.

I didn't feel the breaking of the ice, and I didn't hear any sound.

"In terms of feeling, it's okay!"

Then, Chen Qi also stepped on the ice with his other foot, standing completely on the lake.

It's just that he didn't know who taught him, Chen Qi's two legs were deliberately separated, and they were very wide.

He slid forward a few steps on the ice without lifting his feet, but nothing happened.

It seems that the freezing time is not bad for more than ten days.

"Okay. Just let it freeze."

Chen Qi speeded up again, returned to the shore, and untied the rope.

"Let's put the fishing rod here first. Let's go hunting, if we don't find anything, we'll come back!"

Pulling the sledge, Chen Qi turned his head and left again.
