The man's eyes darkened slightly: "Then the only way is to save yourself."
As for why it's half an hour...
The traces of the two sliding all the way will be covered soon, thirty minutes is the limit.
If the staff can't find it within this time, it will be even more impossible to find it after the traces disappear.
Here, waiting for rescue; over there, the three puppies are still baring their teeth at each other.
"Fart—when did Jiang Fuyue agree to be your girlfriend? Why didn't I know?" Yi Ci swears directly.
Zhong Ziang snorted softly, and raised his chin: "Why do you want to know? Anyway, I have already confessed, you, and you—" He pointed to Yi Ci and then to Ling Xuan, not to be too complacent, "It's all useless! Or Let’s die this heart as soon as possible.”
Don't think he doesn't know what these two guys want to do.
The young master is big-hearted, but he is not stupid.
Ling Xuan, who hadn't spoken much, narrowed his eyes slightly: "It's up to you?"
Zhong Ziang snorted and looked up at the ski resort: "If you don't believe me, you can ask Jiang—huh? Where is he?"
Yi Ci and Ling Xuan followed the trend, but Jiang Fuyue was no longer in the arena.
Zhong Ziang: "It's all your fault! She must be annoyed, so she went back to her room."
Yi Ci: "Obviously you are the one who picks things up first."
Ling Xuan frowned, feeling that things were not that simple.
Jiang Fuyue was fully equipped, obviously planning to have a good time, how could it be possible to hide back in the room just because of them
It's not like her.
"Go and have a look."
Yi Ci saw his solemn expression: "What's wrong?"
"Although the possibility is relatively small, it is best to call the staff just in case, so as to avoid accidents."
"What's the situation?" Zhong Ziang was also a little confused.
It's the staff again, and it's just in case
Ling Xuan ignored him, took out his mobile phone, found Jiang Fuyue's number, and dialed it—
"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable..."
The boy's pupils tightened, and the original three-point suspicion was replaced by seven-point certainty: "Something happened!"
…
Half an hour passed in a blink of an eye.
No one came.
Xie Dingyuan lowered his wrist, "It's time, let's go."
The two discarded skis, bindings, and other unnecessary protective gear, and finally only personal wear items, such as hats and gloves, were left.
"The direction we came is west, it's best to go back the same way."
Jiang Fuyue agreed: "According to the speed of skiing at that time and the slope of the snow field, the straight-line distance between us and the starting point is about... six kilometers."
"Um."
Jiang Fuyue picked up the ski poles on the ground, and threw one to Xie Dingyuan: "It's easy to go downhill, but difficult to go uphill. It's good to hold it for strength."
The man weighed it and said, "It's quite handy."
Jiang Fuyue hooked her lips.
Xie Dingyuan also laughed.
Just when the two were about to leave—
Jiang Fuyue hesitated, "Did you hear any sound?"
Xie Dingyuan listened attentively, and suddenly his face changed after two seconds: "Go! The avalanche—"
The man stretched out his hand, and the girl handed it over. The two movements were almost simultaneous.
Clenched tightly for an instant, and then sprinted in the same direction.
Xie Dingyuan has long legs and big steps. Although Jiang Fuyue is not slow, she is still half a step behind.
The man dragged her forward.
The snow was so thick that a deep pit was formed when one foot went down, and it was only by pulling out forcefully that they could continue to take the next step. The two of them were almost exhausted, but after all they couldn't move faster than the speed of the avalanche.
When a vast expanse of whiteness struck, the only thing Jiang Fuyue could feel was the power in her right hand that never let go.
Then she was brought into a warm embrace, with her head buried in the man's chest, and the bitter pine fragrance drilled into her nostrils.
The heart is instantly stable.
The force of the fall dragged the two of them deep, and the sense of weightlessness struck in an instant. Jiang Fuyue's only impression before she fell into a coma was that the man leaned close to her ear, whispering like a dream—
He said, "Don't be afraid."
…
The sun goes down and twilight falls.
The scenic spot, which was not considered lively, became more and more quiet at the moment.
Security room.
"Did you find it?" Ling Xuan stepped forward, the originally handsome and gentle boy, now his face was covered with frost, and his voice seemed cold.
The person in charge was sweating profusely. "The monitoring shows that Mr. Xie and Ms. Jiang are heading in the same direction. But, where did they stop? The search team sent out has no accurate information yet."
"It's been five hours, and it's going to be dark soon. If no one can be found, do you know what the consequences will be?!"
If you spend a night in the ice and snow, you may freeze to death!
Of course, the person in charge knew that one of these two was a national treasure-level scientist, and the other was a talented girl who won glory for the country. If anything happened to either of them, he couldn't get away with it.
But what can I do if I can't find him
Even if you kill him, it's useless!
"The direction that Mr. Xie and Ms. Jiang went is the largest and most complex terrain among the five undeveloped areas. At the beginning, the development team invited geological experts to conduct professional surveys on this area. They said that there is an underground river underground, which is not suitable for development, so It’s been put on hold until now, and it hasn’t moved.”
Zhong Ziang rushed up and grabbed him by the collar: "What do you mean by this? Want to shirk responsibility?!"
"Young Master Zhong, how dare I?" The person in charge was about to cry.
One and two are ancestors, and the missing two are ancestors among ancestors.
Yi Ci stood up: "In this case, we can only call the police."
Zhong Ziang was taken aback for a moment, and the person in charge broke free from his grasp and dodged far away.
Ling Xuan nodded: "I agree."
Zhong Ziang immediately took out his phone.
At this moment, the door was pushed open from the outside, and two tall and straight figures entered one after the other.
"dad?!"
Yi Ci and Ling Xuan spoke at the same time, their eyes were shocked.
Ling Qingzhou was still wearing a suit and trousers, without any measures to keep warm. It looked like he was going up the mountain in a hurry, and there was no time to prepare.
Yi Hansheng was wearing sportswear and a peaked cap on his head, obviously just got off the golf course.
At this moment, the two looked exactly the same cold and solemn, hearing this, they didn't even give half of the corner of their eyes to their son.
The person in charge quickly stepped forward—
"Mr. Ling, Mr. Yi, you are finally here!"
Ling Qingzhou hummed lightly, walked to the computer, pointed to the monitoring screen: "Go back."
The staff complied.
"stop!"
The picture freezes at the penultimate second after the two disappeared, Ling Qingzhou: "Which direction is this?"
Person in charge: "West!"
"Sure they're going into the greenfield, right?"
"Ninety-nine percent chance."
Ling Qingzhou: "How many search and rescue teams have been sent?"
"So far, five teams have been dispatched."
Yi Hansheng: "Which directions are they facing?"
The person in charge: "Huh? This... I don't know, the team should have made a search and rescue plan before departure."
Yi Hansheng: "Then do they know that people are going west?"
"At that time, we hadn't had time to adjust the monitoring..." The person in charge said more and more, his voice became softer, until finally there was no more.
Yi Han's lungs almost exploded.
"Contact the search and rescue team immediately and tell them all to go west!"
The person in charge trembled: "Yes."
"Dad," Yi Ci stepped forward, "Why are you here?"
"If I don't come, you'll poke a hole in the sky!" Yi Hansheng growled on the spot, drooling.
Yi Ci: "?"
"I won't talk nonsense with you now, if something happens to Jiang Fuyue, I will take your skin off!"
Yi Ci felt guilty at first, and then... doubts entered his eyes.
Why is his father so nervous about Jiang Fuyue
Ling Xuan stood aside, half-closed his eyelids, and didn't go up to try to talk to Ling Qingzhou.
After Ling Qingzhou came in, he didn't look at him, but was busy giving orders and directing everyone.
Although he didn't say it, Ling Xuan could feel the tension towards the person he cared about.
He couldn't help thinking, if one day his mother was in danger, would this man be as irritable, anxious, and worried as he is now
"Hey, do you think my dad is a bit strange?" Yi Ci walked to him and whispered.
"Really?" Ling Xuan curled his lips coolly.
"Anyway, I was the last one in the exam and my dad never said such a harsh word to me, but he wanted to pick my skin off just now? And it was because of Jiang Fuyue? Does he know Jiang Fuyue? Oh, last time on my birthday They've seen it before, but the reaction doesn't need to be so big..."
It was as if his own daughter had disappeared.
"And your dad, when did he get along so peacefully with my dad? He even discussed saving people together? This is so wrong."
The corner of Ling Xuan's mouth tightened.
Even Yi Ci could see that there was a problem, so, are you too lazy to pretend now
Or is it that his father, whom he regards as a god and fearless in all dangers, has become chaotic because of Jiang Fuyue
…
Jiang Fuyue woke up from the cold.
She subconsciously leaned towards the only heat source, clinging tight, tighter...
"Hiss!" Xie Dingyuan gasped.
The girl's skin was soft and delicate, and the cold touch made his chest burn hot, making it hard to hold back.
Suddenly, the girl opened her eyes.
Looking at each other, he was stunned, and in the next second, he showed an embarrassing and comforting smile.
Jiang Fuyue blinked, focused, and quickly realized her current situation.
She was lying in Xie Dingyuan's arms, with her arms around his neck, and her side face pressed against his chest, greedily absorbing the warmth of the man's body.
She wanted to sit up, but when she moved lightly, a sharp pain hit her left leg.
"Hiss..."
"do not move."
Jiang Fuyue tactfully stopped moving, and continued to lean against the man's arms.
"How long have I been asleep?"
The girl's face continued to stick to it, and she didn't intend to move away. As soon as she spoke, the hot air she exhaled sprayed on the skin of the man's chest, making him tremble all over.
Xie Dingyuan took a deep breath, suppressed the restlessness in his body, and replied hoarsely: "... two hours."
But the restlessness can be suppressed, but the heartbeat is uncontrollable.
Jiang Fuyue heard the obviously quickening sound, and looked up at the man's face: "What's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?"
This raising of the eyes inevitably causes movement.
The soft cheek brushed against the man's skin, causing a shiver.
Jiang Fuyue found that the body hugging her seemed to be shaking even more, and she couldn't help but say "You..."
"Don't, move!" He growled repressedly, accompanied by heavy panting.
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Fuyue seemed to suddenly understand something, her originally relaxed body stiffened unconsciously, and her cheeks quickly turned crimson.
"you-"
"Don't move, just don't move me." Xie Dingyuan interrupted, deliberately not letting her finish speaking.
Jiang Fuyue pursed her lips and made a gesture of retreating from his embrace, but in fact she was very reluctant to part with that little warmth.
She is too cold.
It was so cold that his lips trembled unconsciously.
Sensing her intentions, the man gently pressed her back with his big palm, and clasped her into his arms again.
"I said don't move, but you still move, who will be responsible if something goes wrong?"
The tone was stiff, and there were thorns in the words.
If it weren't for the already red ears, Jiang Fuyue would have thought that he was serious.
Pack!
Keep pretending!
"Obviously you have a problem..."
Xie Dingyuan was dumb, the corners of his mouth curled into a restrained arc.
Jiang Fuyue accepted it as soon as she saw a deal, and honestly leaned on it: "Where are we now?"
Although she didn't move, she was still talking, and the hot air sprayed fell on the man's skin and penetrated into every pore.
Xie Dingyuan felt like ants were crawling on his chest, "...it should be an abandoned cellar."
At the moment of the avalanche, he was ready to be buried, and his first reaction was not to run away, but to protect the girl in his arms.
Fortunately, there is no unparalleled road, and there is a natural cave under the snow, which was dug deep into a cellar by the hunters up the mountain.
Not only can it block the wind and snow, he checked around just now, and there are dry straw and cotton mattresses.
Now it's under the two of them.
Jiang Fuyue: "Tell me, how long will it take for people outside to find us?"
Xie Dingyuan smiled: "Are you testing me?"
"Yeah, I want to hear if the scientist's answer is the same as mine."
"Scientists are nothing special. They may not be as good as elementary school students in arithmetic problems."
"So your answer is?"
"Combining the weather and geographical factors into consideration, and based on probability theory and mathematical statistics, it will be noon tomorrow at the earliest."
Night is not conducive to searching, and it will take some time to remove snow in the morning.
So, it's noon.
"Is it the same as your answer?"
Jiang Fuyue pursed her lips: "Almost. What happened to my leg?"
"It's a sprain, it's already swollen, but luckily it didn't hurt the bone."
Jiang Fuyue looked up at the entrance of the cave, and the next second her brows furrowed: "It's getting dark."
Xie Dingyuan followed the trend and hummed lightly.
It's getting dark, and the real test has just begun...
-----Off Topic-----
Four thousand words, the third watch and the first watch together~
I originally planned to update it at noon, but I can't finish the big plot in 2,000 words, so I finished it in one breath and then updated it. Everyone has been waiting for a long time, sorry! mwah!
