Chapter 383 Arrival
"Hoohoo."

On the mountain peak shrouded in mist, the strong wind raged, and there was a scalp-numbing sound from the cracks in the mountain.

The branches covered with snow are overwhelmed and sway with the wind, sprinkling a handful of snow mist in the woods from time to time.

Going up again, the surroundings became a vast expanse of whiteness, and there was no road under the feet. When I looked up, there were only countless ice hanging on the branches.

Although the sun cannot be seen, one can vaguely tell that it is already noon.

Wang Manyin raised his wrist and pulled out his big silver watch from his thick gloves, the hour hand was already pointing to twelve o'clock.

From Mijia Town, they have been on their way until now.

At the beginning, the dirt roads and trails were fine, but now climbing the snow-capped mountains is simply torture.

One step down, it was full of thick snow, one foot deep and one foot shallow. All the way up, I didn't know what kind of terrain was under my feet, and everyone forced a way out.

In order to prevent anyone from falling down the mountain, the five of them wrapped a thick hemp rope around their waists and walked together.

"Haha."

Except for Wang Manyin, the other four were panting hard. Climbing this kind of snow-capped mountain was really exhausting.

Gao Shan, who opened the way at the front, stopped, looked at the time and said, "Let's stop here for a while, eat something and rest."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, found a relatively flat place, sat down on their buttocks, and immediately sat down in a hole in the snow.

"Captain, how far is it? It's been a whole morning." Chen Minghao asked.

That is to say, they work all year round and eat good food, so they have persisted for so long, and other people would have been tired and collapsed.

Gao Shan chuckled, "It's still far away, what is this? In the past, our wolf hunting team traveled far away for several days and nights, but now it's only been half a day."

As he said that, he looked at the path covered by the clouds and fog, "Also, don't look at us walking all morning, we didn't walk very far at all."

"This mountain is not as easy to walk as the dirt road, and it's uphill. I reckon it would be good if I can reach it at night."

Everyone smacked their mouths, a little surprised, but didn't say anything, everyone had already prepared for this.

Moreover, there were only a few of them in the huge mountain forest, and the deep environment always gave them a different kind of excitement.

"Brother-in-law, why don't you look tired?" Shaoan looked at the brother-in-law who was stroking his dog hair, and asked curiously.

Compared with the tiredness on other people's faces, Wang Manyin's face has a relaxed and leisurely look, and he even has a mind to look at the surrounding environment.

Hearing Shao'an's question, he replied with a smile: "Tired, I must be tired, am I too tired to speak without looking at you?"

Everyone chatted and drank the hot water in the thermos while waiting for their physical strength to recover.

Hei Zai stayed next to Wang Manyin for a while, then jumped to other places, and Wang Manyin was not worried.

After Hei Zai came to the forest, he seemed like a fish in water and had a very happy life. He often jumped in front of them and waited for them, as if he had returned to his home field.

Hei Zai met a lynx on the road, and Hei Zai solved it easily by himself, not afraid of the sharp teeth and claws of the lynx at all.

After recovering their physical strength, everyone took out dry food and cigarettes from their bags, and smoked while eating.

Cigarettes relieve fatigue, and dry food fills the stomach.

At this moment, Hei Zai ran over with a gray-haired rabbit in his mouth, and put it in front of him as if asking for credit.

Gao Shan laughed and said, "Man Yin, you have a good dog. How much meat did you bite along the way?"

Wang Manyin smiled helplessly, finished the dry food in his hand in twos and twos, took out a sharp knife, and peeled off the rabbit skin. This skill of skinning was taught to him by Gao Shan.

After the rabbit skin was peeled, Hei Zai began to bite at the bloody rabbit meat, and the wildness of his body slowly returned bit by bit.

Gao Shan looked at Hei Zai fondly, and said to himself, "I used to have a dog too, who followed me around in the mountains and helped me a lot. I'm not afraid to see wolves."

After resting, everyone packed up their things and continued to walk into the mountains.

Wang Manyin had already lost his sense of direction. He only felt that he was going uphill for a while, the road was relatively flat for a while, and he was going downhill for a while. But generally speaking, the surrounding temperature became colder and colder.

There were many dangers encountered along the way, but the poisonous insects were not seen, and they probably all hibernated.

But ferocious beasts are not uncommon. Wolves howling and tigers roaring can often be heard in the mountains, and other weird sounds have never stopped.

But the more dangerous thing is the natural disaster. You don't know whether the snow under your feet is vacuum or solid. Maybe if you step on the air, you will fall to the bottom of the cliff.

Fortunately, Gao Shan has rich experience. With him leading the way, everyone can follow his footsteps.

I don't know when, the sky suddenly darkened, and heavy snow fell one after another. Everyone's eyebrows and hats were all stained with fine snowflakes.

"Hey, it's getting colder and colder these days." Dong Biao sneezed and said cursingly.

Gao Shan looked up at the sky, frowned and said, "Let's hurry up, the sky is getting dark, and it will be even more difficult to walk."

Hearing this, everyone gritted their teeth and followed his footsteps, ignoring their sore feet. Wang Manyin took out a bottle of white wine from his bag, took a sip from his mouth, and then handed it to Shaoan in front of him.

Shaoan didn't dislike it either, and took a sip after taking it. His throat was burning instantly, but his stomach also warmed up.

After Shaoan finished his drink, he handed it to Chen Minghao, Dong Biao, and Gao Shan in turn.

While rushing to discredit, Gao Shan took them across a frozen lake, and finally arrived at the destination, five small wooden houses built on the half slope.

These cabins are only about one meter high, dug one meter deep into the ground, and there are still fireplaces inside.

Quite crude, but although the sparrow is small and well-equipped, at least the environment it survives in is much better than that of Mr. Pei, and it feels like living alone in the mountains.

Wang Manyin looked at these wooden houses with fondness. These wooden houses have a European style, with a layer of snow on the roof. Looking from above, there is nothing unusual at all.

These wooden houses are undoubtedly their next survival base.

"This is the log cabin where our wolf hunting team was temporarily stationed. We also live in it these days, so we can use it after packing up."

After speaking, he looked up at the sky and said hurriedly: "It's getting dark, let's find some firewood and come back to start the fire."

Everyone turned on their flashlights, followed Gao Shan to find a lot of firewood and came back.

It took a lot of effort to light the fire, but Gao Shan had the foresight to prepare some combustibles in advance, and then a pile of flaming fires was raised, driving away the surrounding darkness and cold.

The dazzling fire is particularly conspicuous in the deep forest where you can't see your fingers.
