Rebirth of the entertainment industry and the return of the queen

Chapter 729 The Imagination of the Crowd
got windy.

In the snow-capped mountains, Xia Ling lifted her hood and took a breath. The wind and snow that poured in forced her to wrap up her equipment tightly again.They have been climbing towards the snow peak, and they have already walked quite a distance, Li Lei walked in the front, little Shao Hui walked in the middle, following in his footsteps, and she walked behind them.

Looking at the two figures, one big and one small, in front of her, she was in a daze.

I usually don't think so, but at this moment, Shao Hui really looks like Li Lei - his back, hair color, and even his walking posture are all carved out of a mold.The little child has been imitating his father, holding his head up and his chest up, trying to put on a little manly posture.However, he is too young, and his father's steps are a bit too big, so he has to jump and jump two steps from time to time, so that he can accurately step on his father's footprints.

Fortunately, the father took care of their mother and son, so he didn't leave too fast.

"Take your time, don't rush." ​​He said, "Follow in my footsteps, you won't step in the air." He explored the way for them in front, and stepped on the soft snow so that they wouldn't have any trouble. The danger of sinking.

The cold wind mixed with sporadic snowflakes whizzed past his short hair.

Looking at his back, Xia Ling slowly felt a sense of stability in her heart, as if, as long as this man was here, no strange snowy mountains or any dangers were worth mentioning.

I don't know how long I walked.

Li Lei stopped suddenly.

The little child couldn't hold back, and hit his father's back with his nose.

Li Lei turned around and helped the child.

"What's wrong?" Xia Ling asked.

"Someone is following us." Li Lei said.

"Huh?" Xia Ling was taken aback, and turned her head instinctively. Sure enough, she saw a group of travelers coming towards them in the distance, pointing along the way, and after seeing them turn back, she pretended nothing had happened. He turned his head away, looking at the sky, the ground, and the scenery, but he didn't look at them.

It seems that something is not quite right.

Xia Ling frowned: "Why are they following us? Could it be ordinary travelers who happened to walk the same way as us?"

"This road is not a regular route for travel." Li Lei answered briefly, raised his binoculars, and looked down.Xu Yu smiled, "They suspect that we are human traffickers, and some people think that we are treasure hunters, tomb robbers... bringing a child to sacrifice, to open a secret treasure somewhere."

Xia Ling was dumbfounded, what is this mess?

"Have you watched "Tomb Raiders Notes" too much?" She couldn't laugh or cry.

Li Lei also couldn't laugh or cry: "The imagination of the masses has always been very rich."

Xia Ling remembered something: "It's so far away, how do you know what they said?"

Li Lei: "I can read lips." He grew up in a family of gangsters since he was a child, and left home alone to work as a mercenary when he was a teenager. If he didn't have some extraordinary skills, he would have died countless times.

Xia Ling nodded, this man has too many skills, she is no longer surprised.

It was Shao Hui, who looked very excited: "Father, I want to learn too! Teach me how to read lips, okay?"

"Okay." Li Lei replied with a smile, and touched Shao Hui's small head, but only a layer of snowflakes came off.It didn't snow in the mountains, but the cold wind howled, bringing scattered snowflakes down on the top of the mountain, and gradually accumulated a lot on people's bodies.Li Lei looked around and said to them: "Come on, hold on a little longer, climb up for a while, and there will be a cave for us to settle down tonight."

This is the result of the investigation by the advance troops he sent.

Xia Ling and Shao Hui nodded, followed him, and continued to walk up against the wind and snow.

Sure enough, after walking for a while, they arrived at a cave.The cave was very dry, and there were food reserves and dry firewood left by the advance troops that Li Lei sent half a month ago. Li Lei lit a fire, lifted a stainless steel lunch box to melt snow water, and put a few pieces of dried meat and miscellaneous grains into it.

The family waited for dinner around the campfire.

The light of the fire reflected Xia Ling's plain and delicate eyebrows and eyes, which were stained with a touch of bright red, which seemed to have a different kind of beauty.While warming the fire, she asked Li Lei: "Will those people follow us all the time?"

"It's hard to say," Li Lei replied, "They are just ordinary travelers. They follow us on a whim. They can stay with us for ten days and a half months or give up immediately. It's all possible."

"It's really annoying." Xia Ling was not very happy.

Climbing such a dangerous snow-capped mountain with such a young son is already very annoying, but there are still people who don't know what to do and want to find out. "How do we get rid of them?" she asked.

Li Lei spread out the map by the light of the fire, and pointed it out to her: "The tourist area ends here, and there is still half a day's journey away from us. Further up, there is a dangerous area where tourists stop. They are traveling in a group, and the tour guide should not allow it." They continue to walk towards the restricted area, tomorrow we will walk faster, and it will be fine if we enter the restricted area."

Xia Ling nodded. At present, it seems that this is the only way to go.

The family ate a meal amidst the howling wind and snow. Li Lei even found a pack of hot chocolate among the supplies left by the advance team, boiled it in snow water, and shared it.

After eating and drinking enough, Xia Ling's body was warm and warm, and she fell asleep in a daze while hugging Shao Hui, who was also full of food.Li Lei stayed by their side, but did not sleep, watching the mother and son tenderly and intently in the light of the flickering fire. "Xiaoling..." he murmured, with infinite love in his voice.

It wasn't until dawn that he woke up Xia Ling, replaced her with vigil, and slept for a while by himself.

The family continued on the road.

It took half a day to leave the safe tourist area and enter the restricted area.

"It's dangerous to go up from here." Li Lei looked serious, but his voice was very soft. "Do you still remember the points during the training? You must follow my footsteps. You can't look around when you walk. Also, don't speak loudly. , in case of an avalanche, everyone will be buried alive."

Xia Ling nodded solemnly.

Xiao Shaohui also nodded his head heavily.

Only then did Li Lei lead them up, step by step, slower and more careful than before.Xuefeng has nine bends and eighteen bends. It seems to have been walked for a long time, but in fact, it is difficult and steep, and it is not possible to climb very far.

Suddenly, faintly, a human voice was heard from below.

Xia Ling looked back, and it turned out to be the tour group from yesterday, chasing to the edge of the restricted area.The tour group stopped at the edge and didn't go deeper. A few people pointed at them and didn't know what they were talking about.

For some reason, Xia Ling felt a little uneasy, and pulled Li Lei.

At this time, Li Lei also noticed the abnormal movement below, and when his expression changed, he felt that something was wrong, and saw a tourist in the tour group curling his hands into a trumpet shape, and yelled at them: "Hey——where are you going?! Over there is a restricted area—dangerous—!”

The man's voice echoed in the empty snow-capped mountains, unable to drift away.

Faintly, there was a muffled thunder-like sound from the top of the mountain.
