Life in the snowy spring of water (Edited 01.18.2022)
Snow falls slowly, harsh winds, in the immenseness of all-white, it is never-ending haziness. A human figure in deep freeze cannot keep up with the coldness, left almost a dead body. Shallow breaths, it forces the tired muscles, and the heart’s pumping in pain. Lips turned blue, the palms overly wrinkled. Is there any better way to fight hypothermia? Can you think of other means, how to save, how to get out of this situation, how does it end?
No matter what it takes, no one dares to let go, not Yuwen Yue.
Screams of life, she lets it out, rejecting death yet settling in pain.
No! She can’t die yet Yuwen Yue must live!
But reality vanishes all hopes of the moment.
The frost in Chu Qiao’s body cuts like a thousand knives. It trapped the heat in her skin while the prime energy is spreading throughout the body. She feels it’s coming from the back. Like it burns in hell. Is she coming out of her senses or not?
She is losing for real, losing Yuwen Yue for life.
The fire and cold tearing her body apart. Too much power, won’t be lucky today compared when the first time she encountered the snow jade dog. The spirit is strong yet, the body is weak.
A super-luminous bright light sparks inside the icy lake. The light overwhelms Yuwen Yue. Its a dance of flashback in time, she is sure she saved the weakened fourth young Master from the opposing power of the snow jade dog.
In a burst of light, releases a very powerful vibration on air.
It held Yuwen Yue from going to the deepest gully of the lake.
Suspended in a dreamy state, between life and death, Yuwen Yue watches Chu Qiao like a memory entangled in a different realm. A realm where no one has seen. A realm that does not belong to Yanbei or Wei.
Yuwen Yue utters this name: “Xinger…”
However as if not heard, the voice remained voiceless. He looks at Chu Qiao’s face and strange feelings is felt. The body is in the same form except for this dazzling light on her face.
Shinning like a phoenix bird, glowing in bright light, it becomes unblinding.
Like a divine goddess Chu Qiao looks calm.
Yuwen Yue had a hard time recognizing if this is female in front of him or someone else.
A hallow yellow light comes out so pure and bright.
A small figure wonderfully floats in the air, encircled by moving white clouds. The clouds spins slow, goes up and floats in the air. Her droppy eyes closed, in a Zen position, right at the middle of spinning clouds, she utters: “Go at peace, live well.”
After hearing the voice, the unblinding light overwhelmingly surrounds Yuwen Yue. He covers his eyes using his hands to proctect them. In a flash, after its blast, Yuwen Yue disappeared from the magnificent light.
Three days after the tragedy of the ice lake passed. Yuwen Yue suddenly struggles at the above ice blocks and gasps some air. He finds himself breaking the ice above him, floating at the surface of the body of the ice lake, trapped inside a lagoon.
Thoughts run dry, he must keep it awake: “If I use all my strength to move, I might lose all the power I have now.”
Instead, he let himself float. Yuwen Yue unspoiled under the icy lake. Like in a dream, his mind limits all unnecessary movement and gathers all the heat in his body. It feels strange as Yuwen Yue wonders, where it is coming from? He kept still, allowing his body to float then flow into the water.
At this state, Yuwen Yue tries to enter at this state and his eyes sees yellow light and a hazy human form. He aso heard some words, they are not to forget, “go at peace and live well.”
Those words continued to echo to awaken his senses. It was a source of inner strength. While lingering in this state, He began to utter: “Xinger, Xinger, Xinger!” After the third call, Yuwen Yue woke up and opened his eyes.
Seemed short but counting the days it has been seven days since he freely floated in the icy lake. He gained strength, and able to move freely above the frozen lake. It is connected to an open spring body of water. He found himself near the sideways. In shallow breathing, promising life ahead.
The spring forest was covered in snow. And when the sun took its place, these piles of snow melted.
Then the sun hides, and snow begins to fall.
***
For the first time from the last, Yuwen Yue is able to move his hands and feet. With this ability, he crawls like a helpless child struggles to reach out the snowy surface. Finally, he settles the body to rest in the snowy ground.
Yuwen Yue shivers like there is no end of cold wilderness. The snowfield seems colder than inside the body of icy lake. Rubbing both hands to keep himself warm, Yuwen Yue sees a small panda playing on the other side.
He thought, “Little panda means, bigger panda around.”
Yuwen Yue forced his knees (still shaky) to stand up and walk.
He thinks, “I have no time to check myself. For now, I must walk even if it’s just a few steps than to engage in an animal-human fight.”
Yuwen Yue finds a perfect spot to lay down his body. The clothes looks worn out, but the bloodstains were thoroughly washed in the water. Tiny brown spots is visible over the chest and the wound is still healing. Turning to black, it seems it will scar.
Yuwen Yue checks the head, shoulders, waist, hands, and feet. He noticed these wounds heals faster than normal.
After the physical body check, Yuwen Yue remember he must heal the spirit by meditation.
He squats his body but leaned slightly under the Fir tree. He mainly chose this spot because he believes Fir trees represent hope, promise, and renewal. Amidst, these long dark wintry nights, the tree is also known to outlast many trees. If he meditates and be in one in this spot, it may help him put his determination of will and endurance to refresh himself and finds his next steps.
Yuwen Yue soon finds himself well rested after an hour of meditation. He feels hungry for the first time. Yuwen Yue knew it is time to hunt for food. If he wants to survive the night, he must make a shelter for himself.
Inside, the Greenhills courtyard he lives an extraordinary kind of life and not used to impoverished way of life. Yet, he is trained to survive any harsh condition. Using only the available sources, Yuwen Yue starts to create tools for hunting then gathers pieces of firewood to warm himself at night. The small dagger left at his boots is useful too. Out of the Fir tree driftwoods, he makes seven spears of medium-size keeping it sharp.
Yuwen Yue is content but still looks gloomy today. He cuts a small fabric out from his garment and tears the fabric from his left boot which is made of bearskin.
A circle shape cut, he scraps it without tearing the outside fabric of the boot. Yuwen Yue sinks this bear-skin material in the middle of its forehead like a head band to warm and protect the head.
It will be a long journey he thought, and restoring the “Qi” flow could prevent colds and flu-like sickness.
When everything is at ease, Yuwen Yue went to hunt for an animal down in the snowy forest.
With seven spears he must supply what the body needs. He meticulously checks some herbs and plants, smells and taste some, and finds edible mushrooms. This is for dinner, he thought.
For the water supply, the spring is enough but must find a container to bring some to this hunting adventure.
He finds a bamboo tree, chooses a heart shape leaf, and use it as a funnel to filter the water.
A deer nearby suddenly pops from Yuwen Yue’s eyes.
The skin is useful as shelter, and the lean meat may be rich in nutrients. A bird aslo walks in the site.
He thought, the meat can supply his protein needs and can use the feathers to assemble a bow and several arrows.
Nothing is wasted.
Everything must start this small for him to survive. All by himself, he has to do it.
It is a total 360-degree change of lifestyle, and thankfully he is skillful. From the nomadic ancestors he learns, it is not a tragedy at all.
Can fate turn a second chance into a good outcome it the end?
He did not bother that he is all by himself now. All he knows, there is no time to complain.
He must stay alive.
