After failing the college entrance examination, I relied on fishing to reach the top of my life

in the tent.

After hearing Su Mo's words, Long Yiyi's pale lips moved, but after seeing Su Mo's firm eyes, she finally said nothing more and turned her head silently.

Seeing this, Su Mo said: "You have a good rest and leave the rest to me. The three of us came out together, and we will definitely go back together safely in the end."

"Ah."

Long Huayi agreed weakly.

At this time, Ye Qingchen also walked in with a basin of hot water. Su Mo gave her a few instructions and left the tent.

A gust of cold wind came, and Su Mo took out the cigarettes he had not smoked for a long time from his pocket, took one out and put it in his mouth.

Looking at Mount Prince Charles in the distance, he slowly blew out a smoke ring. After such an incident, the original plan needed to be changed.

First of all, because there was one more wounded person, they could no longer move forward in a short period of time.

In this kind of weather, no matter how tightly the package is wrapped, the cold wind cannot be avoided. Taking Long Yiyi on the road like this is undoubtedly sending her "on the road".

But just relying on this tent to recuperate on the spot is not feasible.

Although the windproof effect of this tent is pretty good, even if a stove is lit inside, the temperature is only about zero degrees. It may be okay to barely stay for one night, but over time, Long Yiyi will still be unable to bear it, and their anthracite coal reserves This is not allowed either.

So Su Mo decided to try to build an igloo.

He once watched a documentary video of the Eskimos in the Arctic building igloos. This kind of house is very strong and can withstand the cold winds in the polar region. It can also maintain room temperature by using the principle that warm air does not escape. If you light an oil lamp in the house, , and can even bring the room temperature to about 15 degrees.

If it succeeds, Long Weiyi will be much more comfortable living there to recuperate.

Of course, this kind of house is not so easy to build successfully, but in order to make Long Huayi recover quickly, Su Mo had to try it.

The second is the hidden danger of sepsis, which is a very scary disease for people who come to Antarctica for scientific research or exploration. You must know that even if you take anti-inflammatory drugs, you need to supplement a lot of vegetables and fruits to obtain vitamins to recover.

But in the polar regions, this is simply a luxury.

Fortunately, adventurers who came to Antarctica more than a hundred years ago discovered that eating seal meat can effectively prevent septicemia. Su Mo only needs to copy the instructions.

Moreover, seals have a thick fat layer in their bodies. As long as the oil is boiled out, it can be used as heating fuel. The effect is even better when used with igloos!

Thinking of this, Su Mo blew out the last puff of smoke, picked up the gasoline saw, and prepared to build the igloo.

The material of the igloo was the same as the one he used to build the windshield. They were all large ice bricks, but it was not easy to stack them into a sturdy round hut.

No, when Su Mo tried it for the first time, the ice bricks collapsed due to uneven stress within three layers.

But he was not discouraged at all and immediately started the second construction. Fortunately, the weather today was very good. The snowstorm that used to happen every day did not come today, giving Su Mo enough time to try and make mistakes.

In this way, Su Mo kept trying in the snow. During this period, Ye Qingchen came to call him twice to eat, but he did not go back. He only ate a can and continued working.

After all, hard work pays off.

With his unremitting efforts, about ten hours later, Su Mo finally built a small igloo that could accommodate three sleeping bags. Then, he dug out a one-meter-long igloo. A two-meter-deep tunnel served as the entrance to the house. After pouring a large bucket of ice water on the roof, the gaps between the ice bricks quickly solidified into thick ice blocks. Even if he pushed hard, the igloo would It was motionless and extremely strong.

Outside the house, Su Mo looked at his results. Although his body was very tired, his heart was very satisfied. With this little nest, they finally don’t have to worry about getting cold.

Returning to the tent, because it was already 11 o'clock in the evening, Ye Qingchen had already fallen asleep with Long Yiyi in his arms.

He reached out and touched Long Yiyi's forehead. Fortunately, her fever had subsided after taking the medicine, but her face was very pale due to excessive blood loss.

Su Mo didn't have time to rest, so he came to the previous gathering place of emperor penguins.

The penguins are still there, but it can be seen from the dark red snow that the leopard seal finally succeeded and took away a few unlucky penguins for dinner.

This is nature where the weak prey on the strong. If Su Mo can't catch the seals, these cute penguins will be his target.

Walking to the body of the seal that was shot to death by Long Yaoyi, Su Mo took out a knife and started skinning it without saying a word. The seal's fur can be spread on the floor of the igloo, which is more comfortable and warm than a sleeping bag. too much.

Soon, a complete seal skin was peeled off, and then he broke down the fat from the seal's body, preparing to take it back to boil oil. As for the remaining meat, Su Mo cut it all into large pieces. Threaded on the rope prepared in advance.

He's going to use the meat to catch leopard seals!

This kind of ferocious seal not only eats fish, shrimps and penguins, but sometimes even young babies of the same kind, so Su Mo is not worried at all that they will not eat the hook.

After putting on the "meat bait", Su Mo found some ice holes, lowered the rope bit by bit, and then waited patiently nearby.

But he soon discovered that he had misjudged one thing.

Leopard seals spend most of their time alone, and putting bait here may not attract prey.

And through the universal fish detector, he also confirmed his guess. There was no leopard seal nearby.

"Do you really want to operate on a penguin?"

Su Mo looked at the penguins who were very curious about him, and finally decided not to leave them alone.

He couldn't go into the water to find it on his own now. After all, there wasn't enough hot water and a change of clothes for him to take a bath. Once the clothes got soaked, he would get sick later.

However, he can use "mind control" to control penguins to go into the water to catch fish. As long as the movement is louder, leopard seals might come to his door.

And since he raised the "Mind Control" attribute value to 10% last time, he hasn't tried how many creatures he can control now. This time he can give it a try.

Just do it.

Su Mo turned to look at the group of penguins, and as soon as his mind moved, there were penguins clumsily walking toward him.

"One!"

"Two!"

"three!"

"..."

After a while, thirty big penguins stood neatly in three rows in front of him.

"Go into the water!"

Following Su Mo's order, the penguins lined up one by one and entered the water, swam in different directions and began to help him catch fish.

At this time, Su Mo suddenly remembered an online game he had played, and a mount in it gave him an excellent idea.

"If I put a rope on these penguins, can I make them pull a sled like a husky? Then we can move on earlier!"
