"We can't get in! We can't get in at all!"

Amidst the howling wind, one of the members of the helicopter crew hired by the show shouted, "We've tried many times, but it's no use!"

"The wind is too strong! Even inside the cabin, the wind noise is so intense!"

As the pilot's words fell.

The fierce wind kept scraping against the helicopter windows, making a series of heart-pounding wailing sounds.

As if the demon of the wind casually waved its hand, mocking this group of overconfident people.

"Can we go around it?"

Greg, hearing that it was definitely impassable ahead, asked the question.

"We can, but we need to go a long distance around! While there's enough fuel, it might be very late by the time we get there!"

"How long will it take?"

"Tomorrow morning!"

This statement left the show team in silence.

They were counting on the helicopter to rescue the two rescue team members still outside overnight.

But now it seems even getting Norman back is difficult.

Don't be deceived by how Norman's condition seems to have stabilized.

The patches of gray and white skin on his face and his still stiff body were all warnings to everyone.

If he's not sent to the hospital for professional emergency care in time, he could die at any moment!

"Go around! At this point, saving one is better than none!"

Greg sighed.

At least they know that three people from the third team are alive; there's still no news about the second team.

That side is likely completely wiped out.

A tough night passed in everyone's anxiety.

The next morning.

When Chen Wen opened his eyes, Norman was putting his hands near the fireplace to warm them.

"How are you feeling?"

Chen Wen yawned; he didn't sleep well.

Norman looked at Chen Wen; at this moment, his mind was clearer, and his spirits were much better.

"I'm much better, thank you. You saved my life."

Norman said, looking quite grateful.

It was a genuinely heartfelt expression.

Chen Wen nodded, asking about Norman's condition.

Norman replied, "The upper body is fine, but the lower body..."

His expression turned a bit gloomy.

As a rescue worker specializing in medical care, he was well aware of his situation now: "But being able to keep my life is already a blessing in disguise."

While talking, Norman glanced at the North American gray wolf next to him, known as Old Wolf.

There was intense fear in his eyes.

Seeing this, Chen Wen moved Norman to the bed, letting him lean his upper body against the wall near the fireplace.

Last night, Norman's condition was not stable enough to let him rest in bed.

After all, Chen Wen's bed wasn't close to the fireplace.

Norman gratefully nodded towards Chen Wen.

And Chen Wen began to examine Norman's legs.

When Chen Wen slightly lifted the clothes on Norman's legs, his expression changed immediately.

The skin on his legs had turned completely gray and black, and there were purple blood vessel marks on them.

No matter how it looked, these didn't resemble human legs!

"Two legs for one life, worth it."

Norman was philosophical about it and even comforted Chen Wen.

These legs were already almost useless before he reached Chen Wen's shelter.

Norman recalled the experience of the previous night.

When he saw the light from Chen Wen's side, his legs were almost as stiff as popsicles and had no feeling.

Chen Wen sighed, saying nothing more.

He contacted the show team, inquiring about the status of the helicopter.

A sleepless Greg reported that the helicopter would arrive shortly.

Walking out of the shelter, the sky was still dark.

And it started snowing again, with the whole world covered in a white expanse.

But the only good news was that the wind was much lighter today.

Chen Wen advised Norman to rest well.

Then, he grabbed a shovel to clear the snow around the campsite.

While Chen Wen was clearing the snow.

A tall shadow slowly approached from a distance.

Chen Wen sensed the shadow and paused, but quickly recognized it: "Why are you here?"

He asked in Chinese.

The moose ambled to Chen Wen's side.

"There's no wind today, so I came to check on you. Hmm, you're not too affected here."

The moose said, circling around Chen Wen's camp.

In the deep snow, the moose's legs moved effortlessly, like stilts, as it steadily brushed aside the snow.

These long legs, they must be more than 1.8 meters tall just the legs alone, right?

Chen Wen marveled at this while also curious about how the moose found its way to his shelter.

With such heavy snow, could the moose see the path clearly?

No, moose are naturally nearsighted, so how could it recognize the way?

This unexpected question left Chen Wen momentarily stunned.

He curiously asked the moose how it found its way here.

The moose, upon hearing the question, thought for a moment, contemplating the answer.

A moment later, the moose provided what seemed like a non-answer: "By intuition."

Intuition...

Chen Wen felt helpless.

He asked, "Never mind about that, how are things with you and the reindeer?"

Upon hearing this, the moose replied, "We're fine. In the cave, we don't suffer much, but the only downside is that food consumption is high, so I came to see if you have any food here."

Chen Wen thought for a moment and took out several pounds of dried fruits he had stored earlier for the moose to snack on.

Although this stuff doesn't completely satiate hunger, it's quite energy-rich.

The moose was eating to replenish its energy reserves.

Chen Wen also considered giving the moose some meat to eat, but the moose refused, and he had to let it go.

...

While Chen Wen and the moose chatted idly, the helicopter finally arrived.

With the rumbling sounds, Chen Wen looked up and saw the helicopter.

Since the helicopter had a clear locator, they could easily find Chen Wen.

But when it came to landing, the people above were troubled.

Chen Wen's shelter was in the forest, and there was no place for the helicopter to land.

Helpless.

The rescue team on the helicopter, after communicating with the show team, flew to the lake where Chen Wen had been ice fishing earlier, landing there.

But soon, the rescue team encountered another headache.

They couldn't get through!

After the snowstorm raged these days, the snow on the ice was fifty to sixty centimeters deep!

And the snow in the forest was even deeper!

In some places, it was nearly a meter deep!

The rescue team, after a few steps off the helicopter, gave up.

In such conditions, even with snowboards, they couldn't move.

The current snow was extremely soft; walking on it, one would almost sink with each step.

Upon hearing this, the show team was also frustrated.

But soon, Greg remembered Chen Wen's beast taming!

He immediately contacted Chen Wen, asking him to try using the beast to get Norman out.

Chen Wen remarked, wasn't this a simple task?

After communicating with the moose, the moose readily accepted Chen Wen riding it.

Soon, Chen Wen wrapped Norman in musk ox hide, placing him on the moose's back.

He also sat on the moose, holding Norman's body steady.

As the moose wobbled up, it walked towards the lake according to Chen Wen's directions.

Norman suddenly felt like he had stepped into a novel.

"This...is your beast?"

Norman couldn't help but exclaim.

With an air of indifference, the moose continued walking.

Almost reflexively, Chen Wen replied, "Not exactly, it's my friend. We're in a cooperative survival relationship."

Upon hearing this, a hint of amusement flashed in the moose's eyes. It gently swayed its body, steadily carrying the two towards the lake.
