The novelty quickly disappeared, probably only for an hour.
Just like other Arctic regions, Anchorage's urban area is only a small part, more of the wilderness and mountains in the suburbs, and these areas are now snow-capped.
Thousands of birds fly away, thousands of people disappear.
Looking into the loneliness and whiteness, Wang Bo subconsciously felt a desolate feeling in his heart.
Tony's voice sounded in the headset: "Hey man, don't run so fast, the lead dog is not so good. Let's not talk about the endurance it takes, let's talk about the courage to face loneliness, can you?
Wang Bo said: "Relax, I can do it."
Soon, he regretted it, because after listening to this sentence, Tony turned off the walkie-talkie in peace, leaving him to face the drowsy snow alone.
The reason why the snow is dim is because he brought sunglasses, otherwise faced with white snow for a long time will cause terrible snow blindness.
The dogs no longer barked. Except for the occasional shout of the strong man, Wang Bo saw the white snow disappearing all the time, and heard the dog's feet, sleigh, and the "brushing" sound of snow friction.
They ran so fast that no sled appeared behind them.
This leading edge is a bit too big, and it's abnormal. He turned on the walkie-talkie to find Tony: "I don't think it's right, man, I don't have a dog behind me, will I run wrong?"
In fact, there is nothing wrong with running. There is a map on the mobile phone in addition to the live broadcast software. According to the directions above, Wang Bo is running right, and he is still running along the road.
Tony's voice sounded: "Listen to me, Wang, it's not so easy to be a leader dog, I have to say that. They are isolating you together. This is a normal tactic. Let the first guy face ice and snow alone. Those guys behind are drinking and chatting. "
Little Rory's voice sounded, "Brother, don't run away so stupidly, you wait for them, wait for the guys behind to let others be the lead dogs. At the second half of the journey, you will work harder."
Tony said from the side: "Yes, that's the right idea."
But Wang Bo was ruthless: "It's okay, I know what's going on, aren't they playing isolationism? Real warriors won't be defeated by loneliness!"
"Well said, Wang." Tony said with appreciation, he took these words seriously, because the impression that Pharaoh left him before was a hero.
So Pharaoh had to face loneliness again.
He once wanted to take out the little parrot, which would alleviate his loneliness regardless of the commander or the political commissar. Both of them had a third-level soul.
But no, judging from the barrage in the live broadcast room, there are still many people paying attention to him. If he turns out a bird out of thin air, that's really god.
Time passed, and a town appeared.
In terms of towns, this is actually a settlement, with only a few hundred households.
After seeing the introduction of the town on the map, Wang Bo decided to take a break.
Anyway, there was no chaser behind him. He had been running for four hours, running at least 100 kilometers, at least 50 kilometers ahead of other sled cars.
This was not his estimate, but the answer Tony gave him.
The town is called Fuldiras. It is warm at noon and some townspeople are chatting in the sun or drinking hot coffee.
Wang Bo had lunch and the dogs had rested before, but he decided to have another meal and let the dogs rest for a while.
Watching him drive the dogs into the town, the two children playing in the town immediately followed and ran away. The boy asked aloud as he ran, "Are you participating in the sled dog competition?"
Wang Bo stopped the sled car and let them sit in. Because he was carrying supplies, the sled car was wide enough to seat two children.
The dogs slowed down, he said, "Yes, I'm in a competition. Do you like dogs?"
The little boy nodded and shook his head: "We like it, but we prefer reindeer."
People in the town of Fuldiras breed reindeer. Locals use reindeer as a means of transportation. This is different from other people in Alaska.
"Unfortunately there is no reindeer sled race, otherwise our town will surely have many champions." The little girl next to her said regretfully.
Wang Bo smiled and touched her head and said, "Of course, of course, you are the king of reindeer."
The boy said excitedly: "Yeah, yes, we are the king of reindeer, I like this title, we are still the king of the north."
At the cafe in the town, Wang Bo stopped the sleigh ride. He first brought the dogs to the sunny side and laid out a large, thick woolen blanket for the dogs to rest and warm themselves.
Then he took out the dogs' rice bowls and poured them with spiritual spring water one by one. Let them drink first, and rehydration is the most important thing.
After doing this, he walked into the cafe and said, "Come on a cup of hot coffee, whatever you want, as long as it is hot and fragrant."
"I suggest you get a cup of hot cocoa, Julia. Give our lead dog a cup of hot cocoa, it's on my head." A fat middle-aged man smiled friendly.
The leader said naturally that it was Wang Bo. They obviously knew his identity. Of course, this was normal. Even the children could guess that he had come to participate in the Iditarod dog sled contest.
Wang Bo got a large cup of hot cocoa and raised his hand to the man: "Thank you for your generosity, sir, God bless you, God bless Fuldiras!"
"God bless Fuldiras." The man raised the coffee cup in return.
There were a few people in the cafe quickly, and someone asked, "Are you Eskimo?"
Wang Bodao: "No, I'm Chinese, and I'm all yellow as the Eskimo."
"Oh, China, we know China, and our electric heaters are made in China. But few Chinese people participate in this competition, and everyone says China is not cold enough."
Wang Bo laughed and said: "You know, China is vast and larger than the United States. Just like the United States has a warm place like Miami, we also have warm areas in China, but if it ’s just cold, Then our Black Dragon-Jiang area is colder than you in Alaska. "
People obviously don't believe it, but they don't want to argue about this kind of problem, they laugh vaguely and listen to it as a joke.
The owner of the cafe lay on the counter and said with interest: "You are very good, man, it took you only four hours and fifteen minutes to come to us. It used to take at least seven or eight hours before anyone could come."
"But you can't run this way." Another person said, "This is not a 100-meter flying trapeze, this is a marathon. You don't need to run too fast at the beginning, but you must persevere." (To be continued.)
