Chapter 40 The Polar Ice Field 06
Although the inside of the snow cave is much warmer than the outside, there is still a limit to how warm it is. It is not easy to slow down the loss of body heat, but there is nothing more.
Seeing everyone's breathing getting weaker and weaker, Jiang Ran was inevitably a little impatient.
Of course, what she was most worried about was Xu Yang, after all, the identity of the gold master's father was different. They specially followed from the capital star to check the situation in person, but they couldn't protect them, so it doesn't make sense.
Thinking about this, Jiang Ran turned his head slightly: "Mr. Xu, can you hold on? If you feel uncomfortable, tell me anytime."
Xu Yang didn't move, didn't speak, and seemed to pass out up.
Jiang Ran became anxious, reached out his hand and shook Xu Yang's shoulder, and whispered "Xu Yang" several times in his ears.
After a while, Xu Yang woke up leisurely.
It was very dark in the snow cave, the light was weak, and his vision was a little blurred, and he couldn't see the expressions on other people's faces clearly, but he could also hear anxiety from the continuous calls.
Xu Yang breathed a sigh of relief, and then slowly said: "I'm fine." But
he doesn't look like he's fine no matter what. Jiang Ran didn't dare to relax, and asked, "What's wrong with your body? I'll find a way for you."
Xu Yang wanted to wave his hand and say no, but he didn't even raise his hand after trying hard. After hesitating for a while, he said truthfully: "The breathing is not very smooth, the hands and feet are not feeling well, and there is nothing else." The
breathing is not smooth, the oxygen supply is insufficient, and the face is black.
Xu Yang's anemia was hidden for a whole day, and finally broke out in this cold night.
Jiang Ran took out his water bottle, and handed it directly to Xu Yang's mouth: "Drink some water, it can relieve the symptoms of insufficient oxygen supply."
Xu Yanggang wanted to refuse, saying that he could just drink some snow water, Then I heard Jiang Ran say: "It can be relieved a little bit, the night is still very long, we should try our best to stay awake, and save everyone from worrying."
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Yang finally took Jiang Ran's water bottle.
He was weak, so he just drank some in small sips, and returned the kettle to Jiang Ran after about five or six sips.
It was just a few sips of water. I thought it wouldn't be of much use, but I just followed Jiang Ran's wishes so that she wouldn't worry. I didn't expect that after a while, Xu Yang really felt that his blood began to flow gradually, and his limbs also felt a little numb. signs of recovery.
His physical condition improved a little, and Xu Yang was finally able to think about some simple questions.
For example... Why does Jiang Ran care so much about his own situation?
Xu Yang thought for a moment, then slowly said: "The wiring of the safety liaison officer is still unblocked, and there is no problem with the life-saving bag. Even if the body is really unable to hold on, it is just a matter of sleeping in the life-saving bag and waking up. Don't worry too much."
Jiang Ran paused: "But if you leave first, the subsequent data records and situation tracking..."
Xu Yang felt certain after hearing this.
Sure enough, Jiang Ran was still worried about investment.
Once you understand the crux, it will be convenient to prescribe the right medicine.
When Jiang Ran finished speaking, Xu Yang said in relief: "Don't worry, I have arranged a substitute before I came. If I can't hold on and get into the life-saving bag, he will replace me and walk with you for the rest Road."
Jiang Ran was surprised: "Why didn't I hear you mention such an important matter?"
Xu Yang smiled softly: "I didn't think I would be unable to hold on before."
Jiang Ran fell silent for a while after hearing this.
What could be more devastating to a confident person than being overwhelmed on the first day?
At this moment, it seemed inappropriate for her to say anything.
Xu Yang's body improved for a while, but it was more like a flashback than a recovery. After a while, his breathing became weaker again.
Jiang Ran worried for a while, then unzipped the zipper of his windproof coat, and put the coat on Xu Yang and himself, trying to add another layer of protection to him and keep his body heat.
Fortunately, the windproof jacket is relatively large, and it doesn't look too cramped when worn by two people.
Xu Yang was very surprised, he opened his eyes in a daze: "I already said that someone will replace..."
"That's for later." Jiang Ran interrupted him, "But now you are my teammate, not someone else. , not a substitute, the cold and cold you suffered are real, I have no reason to let you go."
Xu Yang fell silent after hearing this.
After a while, he moved his body slightly and whispered "Thank you" in Jiang Ran's ear.
The voice was extremely soft. Even though the snow cave was not big and people were all next to each other, Jiang Ran was probably the only one who heard the whispered thank you.
Fu Bai next to him was drowsy for a while, and when Yoyo woke up, he realized that Jiang Ran had half covered Xu Yang's coat.
He suddenly came to his senses and kept yelling, "A coat! I want it too! I'm going to freeze to death!"
"Tch, this is the 32nd time you've froze to death today."
"Then So what!" Fu Bai was unconvinced, "I'm really cold!"
"Come on, you," Jiang Ran remained motionless, "I saw it when I was outside just now, your face is the rosiest, I don't know He's much healthier than everyone else, so he'll just yell nonsense."
Of course, Fu Bai also knew that his condition was relatively good, but he just took the opportunity to make trouble with Jiang Ran. Seeing that she was completely unmoved, Fu Bai yelled a few words, but did not continue to make trouble.
Laughter passed, it was a long night.
The air outlet of the snow cave must be kept clear at all times, so everyone must not fall asleep and must stay awake at all times.
Jiang Ran called out everyone's names from time to time, and he was relieved when everyone answered.
Ren Xiayang joked: "I feel like I'm back in the army. Whenever my superior calls my name, I have to answer 'come'."
Jiang Ran laughed: "The superior specially approves you to answer other voices, but you have to say no." Yes."
In the middle of the night, with the continuous loss of body heat, the body temperature continued to drop, and everyone's condition became worse and worse.
At the beginning, every time Jiang Ran called out a name, he would respond after a while, but later on, the people whose names were called didn't respond, and had to shout and shake to wake up for a while.
And Jiang Ran's own situation is not very good.
It was so cold that his body was so stiff that he was completely unconscious when his limbs touched the ice layer, and even his consciousness was gradually dissipating.
She didn't know how long she could hold on, and she didn't know if she forgot to call when others could still answer.
what to do?
Can't go on like this?
There are still several hours before dawn. If this state continues, everyone is likely to step into the red line of safety together, and then be packed in a life-saving bag and sent back to Capital Star.
"Let's talk," Jiang Ran suggested, "It's impossible to arouse the spirit and emotions by calling names one after another."
"Hmm..." Fu Bai rubbed his eyes in a daze "What should I say?"
"How about..."
Jiang Ran thought about it and said, "Tell me about the embarrassing things about me when I was a child? Embarrassment should make people sober."
Xu Yang did wake up when he heard the words. Without hesitation, he said: "I refuse."
Jiang Ran: "..."
It seems that the gold master's father has a lot of embarrassing things?
But the opinion of the patron's father must be respected.
As a result, the plan of "telling embarrassing things" was rejected by one vote.
What else can I change the subject of?
Jiang Ran thought for a long time, and said hesitantly, "How about... everyone take turns to tell some cold knowledge?
" Telling stories and telling embarrassing things is too embarrassing, but it can also be regarded as a useful method.
This time, no one objected, so Jiang Ran took the lead, starting from her and turning to the left.
Jiang Ran thought for a while and said, "After taking pictures in winter, the camera can't be taken directly to a warm place indoors, because the alternation of cold and heat will form water vapor, which is easy to cause damage to the camera."
"Your cold knowledge is really cold enough." Yes." Fu Bai said, "Aside from you, who in the entire Federation uses a camera to shoot manually?"
"You need to talk too much!" Jiang Ran said angrily, "Hurry up and think about what you want to say later! After Jiang Ran finished speaking ,
Xu Yang was next.
He thought for a while, and said slowly, "I like to chew ice cubes. It may be pica caused by iron deficiency anemia. It's not a big deal."
Jiang Ran turned his head and looked at him subconsciously.
Isn't this what she said to Xu Yang during the day?
Fu Bai's attitude towards the gold master's father is of course completely different from his attitude towards Jiang Ran.
As soon as Xu Yang finished speaking, Fu Bai rushed forward to boast: "Wow! It's knowledge I've never heard of before. It's really interesting. Jiang Ran, don't you feel ashamed to see what others say?"
Jiang Ran: "..."
Xu Yang couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing softly.
Seeing that he was getting emotional, Jiang Ran didn't bother Fu Bai for a while, thinking that it would be nice to make this man amused.
It was Ren Xiayang's third turn.
He thought for a moment, "sucked" for a while and said: "Cut apples, bananas, and cucumbers into cubes, mix them together in a one-to-one ratio, add a little sugar, and it will taste like cantaloupe."
Jiang Ran looked in his direction in silence.
As expected of Ren Xiayang, even if he talked about cold knowledge, it was about eating.
Further down are Zeng Pei and Bai Zhiyong.
It's very easy to guess what these two people want to say, one can't get rid of the little orchid, and the other can't get rid of various mechanical materials.
When it was their turn, the two of them did not go beyond Jiang Ran's expectations, and they talked about things that could be guessed.
It was Fu Bai's last turn.
Jiang Ran became interested and wanted to see what this person who had bluffed more than once and laughed at her one after another would say.
Attention is cast from all sides, staring straight at people, nothing makes people nervous.
Fu Bai was a little flustered for a while, and suddenly he forgot all the knowledge points he had prepared, his head was empty, and he didn't know what to say next.
Jiang Ran was still urging him to tell something extraordinary, and Fu Bai became more nervous all of a sudden.
After a long while, Fu Bai finally had an idea and came up with a novel cold knowledge.
He finally choked out a sentence: "Bird droppings are bitter."
Others: "..."
Others: "!!!"
Fu Bai knew something was wrong as soon as the words came out, and immediately shouted nervously: "Ahhhhhhhhh Ah, you are not allowed to laugh!"
Others: "Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!"
The author has something to say:
[Small Theater]
Fu Bai: Smile, laugh, what are you laughing at?
Others: Hahahahahaha what have you been through?
