Chapter 34 Heavy snow blocks roads
The planet Gaotian is a planet with a rather cold climate because it is far away from the sun.
The survival of human beings on the planet Takamana depends on the superficial geothermal heat here. Or to put it more simply, wherever there are hot springs of sufficient scale, they are suitable for human habitation.
At the South Pole and North Pole of the planet, geothermal resources are most abundant and concentrated, so there are two largest urban areas in Takamagahara - Zhongnan City and Jibei City.
Among them, Jibei City’s geothermal supply mainly relies on the “Atami” in Jinchuan District, which is a large hot spring lake with beautiful scenery.
The closer it is to Atami, the more abundant the heat supply will be and the more pleasant the climate will be. For example, Guanting Street, where the Tsukigong family lives, is located on the edge of the narrow bay of Atami. It has the most pleasant climate and the lowest housing prices in the entire Jibei City.
Expensive location.
Outside the Far North City, wherever there are no hot springs, the temperature mostly remains at more than 20 degrees Celsius below zero. Only polar species such as wolves, snowshoe hares, snow rats, and lichens and mosses can survive here.
The bus was driving on the ice field, and most of the curtains had been pulled down by the passengers, because there was only white outside, and it almost blinded your eyes after looking at it for a long time.
Because Chen Ziang had done his homework in advance and put on sunglasses early, he did not have any symptoms of snow blindness. He just opened the curtains a small crack and looked carefully at the silver-covered window.
This is indeed the first time he has set foot in the world outside of Jibei City.
It is said that in the early days of development, once a vehicle broke down on the road, it had to wait for the vehicle passing behind to rescue it.
The engine must be running 24 hours a day, because it is a cold world of minus 20 degrees outside. If you run out of gasoline or the air conditioner breaks down, when the car behind you arrives, you will only find an entire road covered with ice and snow.
Passengers froze to death in car.
Of course, now that there are search and rescue satellites and professional field search and rescue teams, the possibility of accidents is extremely slim. However, those terrible accident cases still linger in the hearts of the citizens of Jibei City, so that everyone subconsciously rejects and fears the ice and snow outside Jibei City.
.
Chen Ziang's eyes suddenly turned sharp.
He saw a wolf.
To be exact, a dozen wolves.
The body shape and coat color of these wolves are very similar to huskies, Alaskan sled dogs and other sled dog breeds, but their demeanor and temperament are completely different. Their mouths are closed tightly, their tails are clamped between the two strands, and they quickly come around from both sides of the tail of the bus.
, as if this bus is a prey that can be chased.
Chen Ziang watched in silence as a wolf approached under the window, then jumped up suddenly and slapped the car body hard, making a deep muffled sound.
"What's wrong?" Tsukimiya Suzuna, who was playing with her mobile phone next to her, heard the sound and asked curiously.
"Nothing." Chen Ziang replied, "Wild wolves."
"Is there a wolf?" The two girls in the front row were also alarmed. They quickly opened the curtains and took out their mobile phones to take pictures in surprise, "It's true!"
"Don't open the window!" the driver in front yelled, "it's more than 20 degrees below zero outside!"
The driver’s reminder worked. No one rashly opened the window to shoot or feed, but happily took photos through the window.
This made Chen Ziang suddenly have some strange thoughts: What if there is no protection from the bus?
If they were in a rural area and encountered a pack of wolves in the wild without protection, would these passengers still be smiling so happily?
Such ridiculous thoughts only passed by for a fleeting moment, and were quickly suppressed by him.
Realizing that there was no food, the wolves continued their pursuit in vain for a moment, then stayed where they were and stopped running.
This made the passengers in the car a little disappointed, and the atmosphere returned to quiet and boring.
It takes a full 15 hours and 20 minutes to get from Jibei City to Lingyi Town, so everyone is basically prepared with downloaded movies, music, eye masks and headphones to pass the long boring time.
Chen Zi'ang is still searching for relevant information about Lingyi Town. However, there is no doubt that the previous incident of the trance ceremony in the charnel house is a typical serious change that must be concealed from the public, and no news has appeared on the Internet.
There was no response to the message sent to Rio Suikaze. Chen Ziang couldn't help but turn around and found that Rio Rio in the back row had already put on an eye mask and fell asleep.
In this case, I'll take a nap first.
Chen Ziang was about to sleep when his right shoulder suddenly sank.
Tsukimiya Suzuna was already in a daze, resting her head on his shoulder.
"Moon Palace?" Chen Zi'ang called cautiously.
The girl didn't respond and seemed to have fallen asleep.
"Moon Palace!" He raised his voice slightly, but the two girls in the front row turned around, took a look, and then turned back as if they were secretly happy, and whispered gossip.
The lethality of being speculated and gossiped about by others is much more powerful for a straight man than having a girl sleep on his shoulder.
In order not to attract the attention of more passengers around him, Chen Ziang also gave up his plan to wake her up, and just gently draped the sweater covering his legs on Tsukimiya Suzuna's body.
Probably because she slept too comfortably, Tsukimiya Suzuna suddenly reached out her hand again and hugged Chen Ziang's right arm.
Chen Ziang:......
I suspect she is pretending to sleep, but I have no proof.
His arms seemed to be sinking into the warm cotton. In order to get rid of the charming emotions in his mind, Chen Ziang slowly closed his eyes and tried to sleep.
Consciousness gradually fell into darkness.
After an unknown amount of time, he vaguely seemed to hear someone calling his name.
Is it Tsukimiya Suzuna's voice?
A tearful Tsukimiya Suzuna appeared in front of her. She held her hand tightly and said something weakly, with a look of fear and despair.
Chen Ziang suddenly woke up from his dream.
The car was still quiet, everyone seemed to have fallen asleep, and the sky outside the window was full of wind and snow, making it impossible to see the scene in the distance.
Tsukimiya Suzuna still had her eyes closed, but she was not resting her head on her shoulder, and her head had already moved to the other side.
It seems that I was just dreaming...
Chen Ziang looked next to him again. When this girl was sleeping, even if she didn't have the strong affinity of "smiling without saying anything", her appearance and charm had not diminished at all.
The hair on both sides of her cheeks was a little messy, but it added a bit of softness and exquisite beauty to her. There was a little gloss on her delicate lips, which looked like anti-cracking lipstick, exuding some kind of alluring cherry.
like aroma.
It is so beautiful that it gives people an unreal and illusory feeling.
Chen Ziang suddenly felt that the car was extremely stable, and the bumpy feeling caused by driving had disappeared.
"Master?" He quickly stood up and asked, "The car has stopped?"
"The snow is too heavy and we can't drive." The driver in front said without looking back, "This is very close to Lingyi Town. I have asked the townspeople to come and pick us up."
The conversation between the two woke up the sleeping passengers in the car. Suzuna Tsukimiya also woke up and asked confusedly:
"What's wrong, senior?"
"We stopped." Chen Ziang replied.
The driver was still explaining to the inquiring passengers that the snow ahead was too thick and it was difficult to see the road clearly. It would be very troublesome if we branched off to other places, and Lingyi Town had already sent a snowplow to pick them up.
But Chen Ziang still felt something was wrong, so he opened his phone to find the weather software and located his current location.
Sure enough, the weather forecast showed that there was no snow at all, it should be sunny.
The so-called weather forecast is a predictive result based on the observation and estimation of cloud movement by meteorological satellites.
But what if the wind and snow do not come from the natural climate, but from some unknown mysterious force?
