, I can't see it. "

Chu Zihang froze on the spot, still holding the bag of toast in his hand, "What do you mean?"

"Literally." Caesar's hoarse voice came from behind him. "I seem to be out of balance."

Caesar himself attributed the imbalance to the lack of oxygen from drowning and the stimulation of the sentry's senses by the extreme cold body temperature.After weighing it over and over again, Chu Zihang injected him with another Young's ketone to prevent the situation from getting worse.

"What I said before is correct. I haven't had any good things since I met you." Caesar fumbled to tear off the heat stickers that had caked and failed, and muttered in a low voice, "I feel a little regretful, I thought there would be a union hot……"

Chu Zihang silently disposed of the syringe.The off-road vehicle was too crowded, Caesar sat up wrapped in a blanket, stretched out his hand and poked Chu Zihang, but he didn't know where he poked, "Don't you have anything to say?"

Chu Zihang took a step back to avoid Caesar's clumsy hands, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Other aspects...do you feel better?"

"It's better than being in the water," Caesar shrugged.

Chu Zihang reached out and touched Caesar's forehead.Her body temperature has returned to normal, and she doesn't seem to have a fever; her spirit and mood are even a bit too good.

There was still some hot chocolate left, Chu Zihang poured out a cup, and handed it carefully to Caesar.

Caesar took a sip, frowned, and asked, "What is this?"

"Hot chocolate." Chu Zihang's heart sank.Things are worse than they thought.

After a tacit silence, Caesar spoke first: "I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"

***

"You didn't give me something strange, did you?" Caesar ate the toast in his mouth while wearing a blanket, and touched his sentry nameplate from time to time, with a solemn expression, "Anyway, I can't see it, and I can't taste it."

"It's just toast..." Chu Zihang put on his clothes and began to tidy up the chaotic car.It seems that at least Caesar's spirit is not bad. If it is indeed caused by an imbalance, then there is no way to recover.

"Do we still have eggs? I want to eat fried eggs and ham." The new patients are not only in good spirits, but also began to ask for it.

"Wait for me a while." Chu Zihang packed up the car, found the gas stove and got out of the car.

After sunrise, the sun shines on the ground, and the outside temperature slowly rises.Chu Zihang leaned against the off-road vehicle, watching the fried eggs, ham and bread slices sizzling in the frying pan.When he was done, he returned to the car with a hot omelet and toast, and saw Caesar frantically wrestling with a pile of cloth.

Chu Zihang helped him find the position of the sleeves and trouser legs one by one, and finally put on the clothes.

"I'm so full of toast that I can't eat any more." Caesar waved his hand, "Eat it. I can't taste it anyway."

Holding the frying pan, Chu Zihang suddenly realized that the fried egg and toast in his hand were just a trick played by the sentry.

"Let's go back," he heard himself say.

"What did you say?" Caesar thought he had lost his hearing.

"Let's go back." Chu Zihang repeated.

"How far are we from Fairbanks?"

"Less than 300 miles."

"Based on the current road conditions, it will take about two days. Are you planning to give up?" Caesar asked.

"Yes." Chu Zihang answered bluntly.

"Why?" Caesar asked.

Chu Zihang was silent for a while, and said, "I can't let others be in danger because of me."

"For this reason?"

"That reason is enough."

Caesar frowned, "Can I understand that you care about me?"

"Of course I care about your safety." Chu Zihang admitted bluntly, "I have considered it. In the current situation, going back is the best choice. Besides, your imbalance needs treatment."

"Then let me ask you," Caesar interrupted him, his voice has recovered from the initial hoarse and intermittent tone, deep and powerful, and loud, "if you just go back like this, are you willing? Will you just go back like this?" Forget it? Will you find a way to return to Alaska in the future?"

Chu Zihang was silent for a while, "Yes. I will come back." He knew that Caesar was right.Even if he fails this time, he won't stop there.He will come back here one day.With all traces of Heimdall's plan gone, he lost hope.But at least, he wanted to take a look at the scenery that man had seen before his death.

"How much of the Young's ketone given by Percy is left?"

"Fifty sticks."

"It's enough for the two of us for at least half a month. Then there's nothing to discuss." Caesar shrugged and said in a dusty tone, "It's all coming."

Chu Zihang was choked to death by his righteous speech and the last sentence "It's all here".After a long time, it seemed that I was the only one who was worried.

Caesar poked at the guide in the direction he guessed, and felt that it was a lot less fun not to see Chu Zihang's expression at this time; to be honest, he really wanted to receive the cold gaze of the other party.

"I'm really fine." Hearing that Chu Zihang was still silent, Caesar had no choice but to speak.It was obviously me who was unlucky, but I had to do ideological work for Chu Zihang after working on it for a long time. "I have experienced this level of imbalance before. When I was 14 years old, I was swept into the abyss by waves when I sailed alone for the first time. After a while, I slowly recovered. By the way, remember to eat breakfast when it is cold."

There was a "bang" sound from the car door, and Chu Zihang got out of the car.

The woods behind him had already woken up, and the rustling sounds of animal activities could be heard from time to time.It was a completely different weather from yesterday's continuous rain and snow.He leaned against the back door of the off-road vehicle and silently finished the breakfast he had prepared for the sentry.He was afraid that Caesar would not be able to taste the taste, but in the end the fried egg toast was so salty that he could not speak.

After eating, he packed up the devices scattered in the field and walked towards the frozen river.The tools Caesar used for ice fishing were scattered on the ice. Chu Zihang walked up to the slippery ice, bent down to pick them up one by one, and stuffed them into Caesar's plastic bucket for fish.And that red scarf, after a night, the long cashmere fibers were covered with white ice crystals.He carried the scarf in his arm, along with the litter around the fire, and returned to the car.

"I found this small box by the fire." Chu Zihang took Caesar's hand and stuffed a small white tin box into his hand. "Is it the girl from yesterday?"

Caesar touched the edge of the box and opened it, "What's inside?"

"A yellow flower."

The pale yellow flower bloomed alone in Caesar's hand, "Yes. This is the Arctic poppy. The flower language is 'the eternal hope in the desperate situation and waiting for rebirth'. This box is very precious to her. Find a way to give it back to her."

"Are you going to find her?" Chu Zihang asked.

Caesar nodded. "Did you discover anything yesterday?" he continued.

"There is indeed a sanctuary in the village beyond the woods. I've got the direction. Not about two miles."

"Very close."

"But it is also confirmed that the road leading to the village is completely blocked by collapsed forests, and off-road vehicles cannot get through."

"Then we have to go through it," Caesar said.

"Go over?" Chu Zihang asked.Given Caesar's current situation, the most important thing to do is to find a place to rest, in other words, to stay on the off-road vehicle.

"Isn't there still you here?" The sentinel put Renata's small tin box into his arms with a confident expression.

***

Chu Zihang spent a lot of effort to help the ancestor put on a cold coat.Caesar's blond hair was knotted with half-dried water, itching him uncomfortably.Chu Zihang found another long fleece hat and put it on for him—it was a souvenir that was forcibly bought and sold when they passed by an aborigine’s private land—it still couldn’t stop Caesar from scratching his hand.

"I always feel that the outfit you put on for me is very strange." Caesar held the car door and stood on the ground full of dead branches.

Chu Zihang snapped a pair of black goggles with UV isolation on his face, "You can't see anyway."

Following the voice, Caesar stretched out his hand to Chu Zihang, and handed Diktado into Chu Zihang's hands, "It's up to you, guide."

Chu Zihang held Caesar's hand.

It is strange that they have known each other for so long, traveled a long way, and experienced many things, but they have never cooperated in the way of sentinel and guide.

"Are you ready?" he asked Caesar over his shoulder.

The sentry scratched his palm with his fingers.

Chu Zihang felt Caesar's beating pulse and took a deep breath: "Sentry, please give me [-]% hearing."

The world unfolded before him in a completely different way.

The Sentinel gave him all his sense of hearing, and he also has a complete Sentinel.This is a wonderful feeling, Chu Zihang can feel countless information shuttle in his mind.

He heard many voices that he had never heard before, not from his own hearing, but from the silent sentry beside him.He heard a weak air flow passing by from a high place, rolling a little powder snow and ice crystals; on the treetops, needles and leaves squeezed and grew together; among the piles of dead leaves, small animals were rustling and moving; On the river not far away, the ice cracked slightly under the direct sunlight.

He lifted his foot and took a step forward.Leaves and twigs piled up on the ground, and a thin layer of frost creaked underfoot; another step.

Caesar followed him, and his footsteps landed firmly on the footprints of Chu Zihang's one step ahead of him.Sentinel's whole body and mind were concentrated on hearing; his ears were everything he could reach, and Chu Zihang was his eyes, and everything he could reach.Information passed between them, forming a grand resonance, bursting into a sensory spectacle that is almost hallucinatory.
