Trembling At A High Altitude

Chapter 28 Consequences of drinking too much coffee

Li Teng's consciousness was also in a semi-awake and semi-comatose state due to extreme hypoxia.

While he was still conscious, Li Teng quickly recalled the angle of his body relative to the ventilating snow cave before he fell asleep, and locked the direction of the ventilating snow cave.

The entrance of the cave was filled with freshly fallen snow. Relatively speaking, only this place had softer snow. Li Teng had tamped down the rest of the place, almost as hard as ice.

Li Teng groped with his hands, grabbed it hard in that direction, and quickly found a place where the snow was softer. After another burst of digging to deepen the hole, he punched hard, and finally made a hole.

Fresh, cold air quickly poured in from outside the cave, and Li Teng, who was breathing oxygen again, was fully awake in an instant.

He hastily dug the hole a little bigger.

The outside of the snow cave is as dark as the inside, but I can feel that the snow outside is falling heavily again. From time to time, large snowflakes blow into the entrance of the cave, trying to slowly block the entrance of the cave again.

Li Teng didn't dare to sleep anymore. He cleared the snow at the entrance of the cave from time to time to prevent the breathing passage from being blocked again.

After escaping from the danger of being almost smothered to death, Li Teng faced another urgent trouble.

He wants to pee.

Li Teng regretted that he shouldn't drink so much coffee during the day, and now it was very troublesome to crawl out to pee.

In such a heavy snowstorm, if he was not careful, he might slip and fall from the top of the stone pillar.

At a height of more than a thousand meters, if you fall, you will definitely be smashed to pieces.

Looking back, drinking so much coffee during the day is not without benefits... Fortunately, drinking so much coffee during the day woke him up.

If he hadn't been awakened by urine, he would have slept to death in this sealed snow cave.

Let's solve the peeing problem first.

With such a heavy snow, it is too strenuous to dig a hole for the whole person to get out to pee.

If the hole was too small, he couldn't get out. If the hole was too big, he accidentally knocked down the wall of the hole. There would be no place to hide from the wind in the middle of the night. In such a heavy snowstorm, he would be frozen into a popsicle quickly.

After thinking for a while, the clever Li Teng quickly thought of a solution.

A solution to the problem without going out of the hole.

He used his hands to dig out a hole that slanted down bit by bit on the snow wall where the middle part of his body was.

The frozen snow was difficult to dig out, and it took me a long time to dig out a hole the size of a fist.

Soon Li Teng's hands were frozen, and it became very difficult to continue digging.

Li Teng couldn't wait any longer, so he lay on his side and took out the drainpipe, facing the snow cave, and managed to put some hot water out.

The heat and momentum expanded the hole a little more.

However, the smell in the snow cave is not very pleasant.

Fortunately, cold air blows in from the vent hole from time to time, dispelling the smell.

Although he really wanted to solve the problem quickly, Li Teng couldn't do that. If the traffic flow was too large, it might cause backflow, and it would be bad if the snow cave was flooded.

But controlling the release makes people uncomfortable, just like reading serialized web articles, it feels very uncomfortable to read chapter by chapter.

There was no way, Li Teng could only find a balance between the two.

Ten minutes later, Li Teng suddenly felt another gust of wind coming from the middle of his body.

No way? Water drops wear stone... no, water pours ice?

Now that it was soaked through, Li Teng didn't have any scruples anymore, so he quickly let it go.

It stopped after half a minute.

Cool!

So cool!

Then Li Teng reached out and dug a snowball from the outside of the ventilation hole, and blocked the drainage hole to prevent the bad smell in the hole.

"I'm so fucking talented!" Li Teng couldn't help but praise himself.

There is still a lot of snow outside.

Li Teng didn't dare to fall asleep again, so he tried his best to support himself, guarding the ventilation hole so that it would not be blocked by snow again.

It would be nice if there was a plastic pipe, and if the pipe was buried in the snow wall and stretched out, the ventilation hole would not be blocked.

It is very difficult to persist in the dark.

Li Teng recalled some of the online novels he had read, recalling how those positive protagonists overcame many difficulties and reached the other side of victory, and used the positive energy he absorbed from the online novels to support and encourage himself.

Hours passed.

Drainage holes were dug several times and blocked several times.

Persisted until midnight, the snow finally stopped.

Li Teng was a little sleepy and couldn't hold on anymore. After thinking about it, he dug the ventilation hole a little bigger, and then lay down again.

If the ventilation hole is too small, it is easy to be blocked, and if it is too large, the wind will blow in and it will be very cold.

We can only find a balance between the two.

...

When Li Teng woke up again, it was already dawn outside.

The kind of gray light.

Snow is falling again, very small ones.

It can feel cold outside.

Although the snow cave is as cold as an ice cave, the feeling is still stronger than outside.

In the current situation, it doesn't make sense to go out.

Nothing to eat, nothing to play, and no girlfriend to study and discuss about human reproduction and evolution.

So, go ahead and hide in the hole.

I don't know when this kind of hard life will end.

Finding a way to earn more points and lower the height of the stone pillar is Li Teng's only hope now.

However, points are really hard to get.

After a hard work, I got a few points. The next time I go to the film and television city, I can only drink porridge and eat steamed buns.

Thinking of porridge and steamed buns, Li Teng began to swallow again.

All the food I ate in the film and television city yesterday was digested.

All the coffee I drank turned into urine.

Now Li Teng was hungry again.

When people are hungry, they feel colder.

Fortunately, the weather is cold, so he is not very thirsty now.

Li Teng stretched his hands and feet from time to time in the cave to prevent them from being damaged by the long cold.

Originally, I planned to hide in the snow cave for a whole day like this, but...

Li Teng had new troubles.

Fortunately, he ate a lot of food yesterday, so he also produced a lot of waste in his intestines.

This can't be solved in a snow cave.

You have to get out of the hole.

In this weather, I really don't want to go out of the cave.

But now it's not like he can't get out if he doesn't want to.

Even if there is lightning and thunder outside, and it is full of viruses, he has to go out.

The bed that Li Teng slept on was a large wooden bed left by his parents to his ancestors.

It is a double bed two meters long and nearly two meters wide.

Although a corner of his bed was knocked off by a civil airliner, the rest of the bed can sleep alone.

After being knocked off a corner, there is an advantage.

That is, Li Teng had a small triangular platform in the corner of the top of the stone pillar.

After clearing the snow a little, there is a place to stand and do business.

After opening the snow hole and getting out, Li Teng took a few big balls of snow from the bed, tamped it into a basin shape, and squatted on the small platform to solve the problem.

After solving it, I squeezed a few triangular snow blocks to clean up the buttocks.

Then kicked down the snow basin just made, which also avoided the problem of flushing.

I don't know if there are any residents in the town. If there are, they won't go out in such a cold day, right?

It's impossible to be so accurate, it just happened to be on someone's head, right?

Li Teng also didn't want to pin the shit bowl on someone else, but now he had no choice.

He didn't want to be stink to death.
