Survival Tale on a Deserted Island: I and Airline Stewardess

110.Terrifying blizzard

Li Lin and Xu XiaoRong even hugged each other, tears streaming down their faces with excitement.

"After we go back, I want to drink bubble milk tea, eat Häagen-Dazs ice cream, and have braised pork, tomato beef..." Li Lin counted on her fingers, saliva flowing incessantly.

Xu XiaoRong, because of her description, also had saliva flowing non-stop, and the two of them were like two ten-year-old gluttonous cats, nodding continuously.

"Wei ge, when can we set sail?" Wang Qin and the Black Spicy Girl came over, pulling on my sleeve, asking incessantly. They were also excited, tired of the hardships on this deserted island.

I smiled and answered them, "Don't worry. These days, I found a hidden current flowing towards the coast nearby. Without the right wind direction, our raft won't leave the small island."

"It probably still needs a few more days. With the right wind direction, we'll be able to set sail." Su Jie also explained on the side. She was the most mature and calm among us. Although she appeared calm, her hands were slightly trembling, feeling the excitement in her heart.

I chuckled inwardly, but a faint sadness surged up. Was everyone about to leave? And my future remained uncertain...

In the following days, we prepared for the sea voyage. Every night, we held meetings to discuss potential dangers and the supplies we needed. Overall, the atmosphere in the cave was very pleasant these days, and everyone was filled with hope.

We seemed to be fully prepared, waiting only for the east wind. However, instead of the east wind, we encountered a more dreadful cold current and a snowstorm that covered the sky.

These days, the weather became extremely cold, with outdoor temperatures dropping to minus five degrees Celsius or even lower. As a southerner, I had never experienced such severe cold. With the help of animal skins and bonfires, we barely persevered. However, nature apparently had no intention of letting up; a more terrifying cold wave struck.

On this morning, I was awakened by the cold. When I got up, the two piles of bonfires in the cave were extinguished, and the piercing cold wind kept pouring in through the cracks in the entrance. Even my exposed fingers felt numb and frozen. Confronted with the biting cold and the howling wind in the distance, I felt a sense of foreboding.

I opened the door and walked outside to take a look, and my whole heart sank. The sky was ominously dark; although it should be morning, the daylight was still very dim. The air around was unusually cold, and the entire forest in front of me was covered with thick white snow. The accumulated snow at my feet almost reached knee-depth, and stepping into it required considerable effort to pull out. What's worse, the snow made it impossible to see the ground clearly. Sometimes, a step might be on solid ground, or it might be a deep rock crevice, becoming a natural trap that could lead to death if fallen into!
