Therefore, the trio gritted their teeth and finally decided to leave the tent. However, just as they unzipped the tent, they felt a strong gust of wind surge in. A huge handful of snowflakes hit their faces as though someone had thrown a snowball at them! He Haijiang, who was walking in front, nearly tripped back. Thankfully, there were people behind him who blocked it …
By the time the trio walked out, they felt a strong gust of wind. The biting cold seemed to drill into their down jackets. The heat in their bodies rapidly dissipated!
"Quick … Quick, light a fire!" He Haijiang shouted.
The two women took out their packed bags and took out all the useful items that couldn't be burned. The rest were thrown out.
He Haijiang quickly dug up the snow and dug out a hole. All the clothes were piled inside before he took out a lighter to light it. The clothes were flammable. With the light of the fire and the wind's momentum, they immediately caught fire. As the flames rose, the trio finally felt a warm aura! This was the first time they realized that the simplest warmth could be so touching.
However, it didn't take long for Yao Zhen to scream. "Quick, add more wood! It's going to burn out! "
Although the clothes were flammable, they were extinguished even faster as they burned! With a strong gust of wind, many of the lighter clothes were blown away! Sparks filled the sky as they danced in the strong wind. The scene was a mess!
He Haijiang wanted to protect the fire and add more wood. He was so busy that he couldn't be bothered with anything else.
Cheng Mujie covered her face. A spark had burned her forehead, causing her to tear up from the pain.
Yao Zhen was just about to help when she felt the fire behind her. Turning back, she saw burning pieces of clothes land on the tent. With a strong gust of wind, the flames intensified and the tent caught fire!
"The tent! The tent is on fire! "Yao Zhen shouted.
He Haijiang looked back and shouted anxiously. "What are you shouting for? Put out the fire! "
Yao Zhen was dumbfounded. Put out the fire? How was she to put out the fire? Hence, in a rush, she cupped some snow in a bid to extinguish the fire. However, she was afraid of the flames and didn't dare go too close. The bit of snow she held was thrown from afar, but before the snow could land, it was scattered by the wind. The flames weren't affected at all. The flames on the tent grew stronger and in a blink of an eye, the entire tent was on fire!
At that moment, there was nothing Yao Zhen could do other than cry.
Cheng Mujie looked at the scene in front of her. Although she had warmed up, she was given quite a fright …
In the sky, Fangzheng was also given a fright. Were these people courting death? Although it was winter, although it was snowing! However, snow was different from rain. After rain, everything would be wet, and it would be difficult to start a fire on such a rainy day. However, a snowy day was different. After winter, the weather was dry, and all the trees were very dry. When it snowed, the snow would pile up on the ground and fall on the trees, but it would not melt into the tree trunk. This resulted in a situation where the trees looked very cold but were actually very dry! Once the flames were ignited, it would immediately turn into a forest fire. The damage and losses caused would be too great!
Fangzheng immediately said, "Jingxin, quickly control the fire! Don't let the fire spread. "
Red Boy quickly responded, and the flames were suppressed. However, Red Boy was clearly infuriated. Although the brat had suppressed the fire, he had also burned Yao Zhen, Cheng Mujie, and He Haijiang's belongings. Furthermore, the speed at which the fire burned had clearly accelerated. A few minutes later, the raging fire was almost extinguished …
Only then did the trio snap to their senses. They hurriedly found wood to add to the fire, but unfortunately, the fire had melted the snow. The wood that was placed to the side was already wet, and with Red Boy messing around, how was it possible to light it?
Ten minutes later, the trio hugged their arms and stood in their spots, trembling. Although there were still sparks on the ground and it was still warm, the wind still made them astonishingly cold.
"We're doomed. The fire is gone, the tent is gone, and there's nothing to eat. What do we do? "Cheng Mujie was on the brink of tears.
Yao Zhen turned anxious as well. "It's all your fault! You had to burn my belongings. If not for my clothes, we could at least wear them for warmth. We wouldn't have been left with nothing. "
"Blame us? If it weren't for us, you would have frozen to death. " He Haijiang was originally a little dumbfounded, but when Yao Zhen grumbled, it was as though he had found a punching bag. He immediately roared.
Yao Zhen was infuriated by He Haijiang's roar as she said angrily, "Why are you shouting? As a man, if you don't know how to light a fire or survive in the wild, what else can you do? "
"Yao Zhen, don't go overboard!" Cheng Mujie immediately stood up for her boyfriend when she saw him being scolded.
Yao Zhen sneered. "Am I going overboard or are you going overboard? The things were burned by you. Now that everything is gone, aren't you going to let me say a few words? "
"Enough. Since you're so impressive, have fun yourself! Mujie, let's go! "With that said, He Haijiang pulled Cheng Mujie away. When Cheng Mujie saw this, she was taken aback. After complaining, she sneered and rolled her eyes at Yao Zhen before leaving with He Haijiang.
The moment the duo left, Yao Zhen was dumbfounded. Only then did she snap to her senses. This wasn't the city she was familiar with. The two people in front of her weren't her suitors either. They had no intention of indulging her pampered temper! With He Haijiang and Cheng Mujie gone, she was the only one left in the pitch-black forest. Immediately, the color in her face drained. Apart from grumbling, what else could she do?
Follow He Haijiang and company? But wouldn't she be mocked if she was discovered? That would be too embarrassing!
While Yao Zhen was pondering, He Haijiang and Cheng Mujie had already walked far away, vanishing into the darkness. The world was silent. Yao Zhen was at a loss as to whether to advance or retreat. Finally, she recalled what Xunzi had said before leaving. Then, with tears streaming down her face, she hugged her knees and squatted beside a tree. It could block the wind, but the cold was still irresistible.
Yao Zhen curled into a ball from the cold. At that moment, she finally felt regret. She regretted following Xunzi and company into the mountains to relieve her stress! This wasn't relieving her stress, but releasing her life!
Yao Zhen's mind was filled with her past life. She missed the warm office and the hot coffee. She missed the friends she thought nothing of. She missed the life she always claimed she was sick of. Now that she thought about it, those people and those things were the most beautiful life … and not the world of ice and snow before her!
In the beginning, Yao Zhen would curse from time to time, but ten minutes later, the number of curses lessened.
Twenty minutes later, Yao Zhen basically stopped moving.
Thirty minutes later, Yao Zhen shook her head slightly, and then there was no more movement.
At that moment, Yao Zhen didn't know what she was thinking. All she felt was cold, sleepy, and sleepy … But she instinctively knew that she couldn't sleep. Once she did, she might never wake up again. However, she was horrified to realize that she didn't have the strength to move. Her body was cold, so cold that she felt like she had frozen into a lump! Her body was stiff and she couldn't feel anything … She seemed to hear Death's breathing and felt the coldness of hell.
