Chapter 686: Bathing in the Glacier
Finally we saw the valley.
【Wuhu, finally arrived】
【Finally I feel relieved】
[Don't sleep tonight, the big one is coming! ]
[Lonely Xiaowen presents the protagonist with a spaceship*1. ——It’s not easy, Master Fang is awesome! 】
[18,000 km/h yacht*1 is presented to the anchor. ——What is the world's best jungler? (Tactical retreat)]
After completing his goal, Bifang's muscles began to ache all over. Only then did he realize how much exercise he had done in the past two days, and he had an urge to lie down and take a nap.
But it’s not time yet, at least until we cross the river.
Regaining his spirit, Bifang pulled the sled to the river and kicked away the snow on the ground, revealing an ice surface that was not very smooth. Due to its thickness, the ice surface was not transparent and looked like a thick layer of frost.
The river was not wide, only about four or five meters, so for safety reasons, Bifang planned to take the three idiots across first, and then pull the musk ox from the other side over, to avoid the situation where both of them were on the ice and caused it to rupture due to excessive pressure.
"We have to be careful. Although the temperature has been relatively low in the past few days, it does not rule out the possibility that this naturally formed river may cause the ice surface to be very weak in some places due to the terrain, especially when we are carrying heavy objects ."
As a result, Bifang's plan failed in the first step. The sled dogs stood on the shore and refused to go over.
After pulling Goudan for a long time, it thought for half a second, ran to the river bank, turned around a few times, and finally opened its mouth, raised its hind legs, and spurted out a stream of light yellow urine. Its eyes were slightly narrowed, and it seemed to be enjoying it very much, which showed that it had been holding it in for a long time.
[233333, Goudan is really amazing]
[Erha basic exercise, sit down, don't be startled]
[Goudan: I just took a piss, look how anxious you are]
Bifang held his breath, feeling somewhat helpless, but not too disappointed: "There is nothing I can do. We have been together for too short a time. These guys may not understand my orders, especially since their former masters are most likely not Chinese. It is even more difficult for them to understand my Chinese commands."
"Plus, animals are actually very afraid of frozen lakes because they are afraid of water. Dogs don't know how thick the ice is for people to stand steadily, so they subconsciously feel it's unsafe. I'd better go over there by myself."
Bifang stepped on the ice, holding the rope in his hand, and walked on it at a speed that was neither fast nor slow.
Unfortunately, when luck is bad, even drinking cold water will get stuck in your teeth.
Before they had walked halfway, a dull cracking sound was heard under Bifang's feet, which immediately aroused fear in the audience.
Bifang raised his eyebrows, but with the second dull cracking sound, the corners of his mouth twitched.
What the hell, why is the ice so thin here? Or am I just unlucky?
If it was the first sound, many viewers might not have heard it clearly, but after paying close attention, the second sound was like a bolt from the blue.
[Damn, did I hear a cracking sound just now? ]
[It’s over, it’s over, is it going to explode? ]
[Don’t panic when something happens, light a cigarette first to show off]
"Don't be afraid or panic, there's nothing wrong. In this situation, you must stay calm and don't try to escape by running fast, as that will only accelerate the collapse of the ice surface."
"What you need to do now is to lie on the ice and crawl to the shore, or roll slowly toward the shore."
"If the cracks on the ice are still expanding and you can no longer move, stretch your limbs as much as possible, lie still on the ice, call for help, and wait for rescue on the spot."
Bifang quickly took off his coat and slowly placed it on the ground. With the cushioning, he could prolong the duration of force application, reduce the intensity of the impulse, and avoid multiple cracks in the ice as much as possible.
Carefully lying on the ice, Bifang moved towards the shore little by little. Surprisingly, it actually made it across.
It was just a safe crossing of the river.
Bifang looked at the ice surface with obvious white cracks with lingering fear: "It seems that the ice surface here is unwalkable for some reason. We can only change places."
Walking along the river bank, Bifang found a place a little further away and tried to cross the river again. This time there was no problem.
After ensuring it was safe, Bifang immediately took the three idiots and the musk ox across the river from the ice where there was no problem. He coaxed and dragged the three idiots back to the other side, and then they dragged the musk ox together, successfully crossing the river and returning to a safe point.
The valley is surrounded by dense forests, with mountains at the back and rivers on all sides. It is a perfect terrain, which is why Bifang insisted on bringing the musk ox back here.
There is no other reason, this place is just too great. Even if it takes a little more time, it is worth it to drag a 200-kilogram musk ox for a whole day.
After entering the woods, the three idiots let go immediately. Bifang didn't care either. The whole valley was surrounded by rivers and the place was not big, so the possibility of danger was not great and there was no need to worry about getting lost.
Bifang walked in the forest, found a few pine trees, picked a few pine needles, then returned to the river, started a fire with dead wood, and obtained some charcoal ash.
The audience also realized at this time that Bifang was collecting materials, but they didn't know what he was going to do with them. But when Bifang took out butter, everyone understood.
To make soap.
With water, alkaline charcoal ash, and musk oil, Bifang began to boil water in a wooden bowl, preparing to make a bar of soap with a light plant fragrance. The method was exactly the same as that in the rainforest. After a brief explanation, he began the actual operation.
"By the way, I don't think I have ever talked about the issue of sanitary napkins." While boiling water, Bifang slapped his head. Since he was a man, he had never thought about the need in this regard.
[Ah, what's the point of this?]
[Wow, it really is]
[Why can't I talk about it? Why is there nothing to talk about? Do you look down on Fang Shen's female fans? ]
[Good fellow, I opened the sky with my right fist and transformed into a dragon]
"Don't be like that. I just happened to think of it and mentioned it by the way. It's actually very simple. Most of the indigenous people use dried moss to make sanitary napkins. In addition, some very soft and tanned animal leather is often used to make sanitary napkins and baby diapers."
"This is a serious topic. The hygiene of women during menstruation is actually very important in the wilderness. Don't underestimate it."
[I heard that there might be attacks from bears and sharks]
[Fuck, is this true? ]
"This must be a rumor." Bifang shook his head after seeing the barrage.
"In 1967, two menstruating women were killed by grizzly bears in Glacier National Park, Montana, which is probably where the rumor started."
"After a series of studies and experiments, bear experts confirmed that grizzly bears and black bears are not very interested in menstruating women, unless they are face to face and the other party is extremely hungry, but in this case it doesn't matter whether there is smell or not. As for sharks, it is even more impossible."
Bifang smiled and said, "This is my personal experience. Sharks are not interested in human blood at all."
[Another day of learning]
It doesn't take long to make soap, especially in the Arctic, where the temperature cools very quickly. Bifang obtained a piece of solid soap in a short time, and then took the soap to the place where the ice cracked first.
What is Lao Fang doing here?
The audience all raised questions.
Bifang held up the soap and said with a smile: "Take a bath, and I'll show you how to survive on the glacier."
