Chapter 0491: Re-entry into the Himalayas
Sharna sent Crudo an offshore account with the Black Cauldron Company, but three days passed without receiving a penny.
Li Zi'an is not in a hurry, it has only been three days, and Crudo is definitely not willing to admit defeat like this, so he has to struggle. For example, arresting him to ask for an antidote, going to the hospital for treatment or something, but no matter how much he struggles, it will be useless, and the incarnation ointment can only be solved by the blood of the furnace body.
"Lee, how long do you think Crudo will be able to hold out and compromise?" Sharna broke the silence on the desolate hillside.
Li Zi'an thought for a while: "If you don't do anything, I estimate that he won't be able to survive for a week, and a billionaire like him will definitely ask the best doctors to treat him, and those doctors can't cure the poison but have a way to alleviate his pain, so I'll take a middle number, about ten days." β
"I think so too, I sent him an email and if he can't make it up, he'll contact us," Sharna said. β
"Is your mailbox secure?"
"Don't worry, you are a professional in poisoning, and I am a professional in doing this. Sharna said.
Let's talk about it, and before I know it, I have arrived at the entrance of that canyon. The two came from the side to the foot of the mountain, without passing through Shuanghe Village.
Li Zi'an glanced at the watch in his hand: "It's almost 11 o'clock, let's go to the end of the canyon to eat something, take a break and start climbing." β
Sharna hummed, pulled the strap of her backpack, and followed Li Zi'an towards the canyon.
Li Zi'an's backpack was larger, containing outdoor tents, sleeping bags, food, water and other things, weighing dozens of pounds. In addition, he was carrying an alloy toolbox in his hand, which weighed almost ten pounds.
At the end of the canyon, the two untied their backpacks and sat down on the rocks to eat.
Li Zi'an ate chocolate, and when he saw that Sharna was just nibbling on a few cookies, he handed her a piece of chocolate: "Eat chocolate, it's okay for you to eat a few cookies." β
Sharna shook her head: "I don't want it, chocolate is too high in calories and will grow meat." β
Li Zi'an: "......"
Women's thinking is really weird.
"I have beef jerky, though. Sharna took out a piece of beef jerky and nibbled on it.
Li Zi'an didn't bother to care about her and continued to eat his chocolate. He never had to worry about getting fat, sleeping in the Qi Refining Technique was cultivation, and sleeping would naturally be able to lose weight. Heaven rewards diligence, and how can God not be kind to diligent people who are cultivating even when they sleep?
"Lee, how many days are we going to stay on it?"
"We return when we consume more than half of the supplies we bring with us, and we don't stay. β
"The food we brought with us barely lasted 10 days, which means we had to return in five or six days," Sharna said. β
"Yes, this time it's mainly to see, even if you can't find anything, it doesn't matter. Li Zi'an said.
After eating, Li Zi'an came to the bottom of the cliff he had climbed last time, climbed up first with the flying tiger claws, then pulled up the backpack, alloy toolbox and everything, and finally pulled Shaerna up again.
Sharna smiled and said, "It's really easy to climb the mountain with you, if I can't walk, will you carry me?"
"You're thinking too much, no. Li Zi'an continued to climb.
The two climbed up from the trench between the two peaks, and with the tool of the Flying Tiger Claw, they were very efficient, and they climbed a mountain peak three hours later.
Behind the peaks are rolling peaks, and it is really a mountain that is higher than a mountain.
This is actually a gradually climbing continent, the highest place has a difference of seven or eight kilometers from the horizon, but this is not a straight line, but a zigzag diagonal line, if you really want to climb to a height of seven or eight thousand meters, it may be hundreds of kilometers later.
This peak has not yet covered with snow, but the peaks behind it are covered with snow.
Li Zi'an activated the compass, fixed the direction, and continued to climb up.
At first, he was still a little worried about Sharna's physical strength, but Sharna has never been left behind, but some special terrain needs his help. After all, it is a mixed-breed Yanma, tall and long-legged, and good physical strength, if it were a squeamish woman, I am afraid that she would have already sat on the ground and rolled on the ground.
A boulder stood in front of the two of them, only four or five meters high, but it was ninety degrees vertical, and it was a bit of a fuss with the flying tiger's claws, and it was possible to use the edges and corners of the rock to climb up.
"Your back is too heavy, this time I'll get on first, and then I'll pull you on it. Sharna climbed the rock ahead of Li Zi'an.
"Be careful. Li Zi'an admonished.
He walked under the boulder and slung the alloy toolbox to his backpack, ready to climb.
Sharna stepped on the edges and corners of the rock to climb up, and her movements were very steady, and it was obvious that she usually practiced in this area.
Although he was carrying dozens of pounds of weight, he only needed one finger to buckle the edges and corners of the rock to stabilize his body, and climbing such a rock was actually as simple as a gymnast's single parallel bars.
"Ahh
Li Zi'an hurriedly stretched out his right hand, and with a move, the overlord lifted the top and held up the full moon of Sharna, so that he did not fall.
Although it is only four or five meters high, it is full of hard and angular rocks underneath, and you will definitely be injured if you fall.
In a panic, Sharna's hands re-buckled the edges and corners of the rock, looked back, and then saw Li Zi'an holding the rock wall with one hand and her full moon with the other, and that posture had an indescribable domineering feeling.
The only bad feeling is the master's thumb.
The master's thumb is missing.
However, this disappearance is a superficial disappearance, and both know where it has gone.
One thumb, two embarrassments.
The expression on Sharna's face grew stranger and more colored.
Li Zi'an was the first to be angry, and he said embarrassedly: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and climb up, I can't support you anymore." β
Sharna then turned around and continued to climb up.
The two climbed up the rock, and in front of them was a trench that stretched upwards, and a little further up there was snow.
The temperature here was also noticeably cooler than below, and the wind was blowing from the trenches, with a bone-chilling chill.
Li Zi'an took out the compass and activated it with true qi, the pointer of the compass pointed in the direction of 15 o'clock, which was the east, and the eyes of the green dragon were green and faint, and they were exceptionally bright. The runes on the pointer at 15 o'clock also lit up, this time more clearly than the last time.
Sharna leaned over and said, "It's more obvious than the last reaction, we may be close to that place." β
Li Zi'an looked at the trench, and then looked at the towering snow-capped mountains on the left and right: "I don't think so, our location is in the southwest, and the pointer points to the east, that's just a general direction, if this thing can send a location like a mobile phone, then we will be much easier." β
Sharna thought for a moment and said, "I might be able to calculate a general direction." Li Zi'an was suddenly excited: "How do you calculate the approximate direction?"
Sharna said: "Let's first set up a coordinate A, use a compass to measure the direction on coordinate A, then translate a distance to the right, and measure the direction again to get the angle B, 180-A-B = apex angle C, so that we can calculate an isosceles triangle base angle, apex angle, base edge length, base angle Γ· apex angleΓ base edge length = waist length." This will allow you to calculate the distance from coordinate A to target C. You can find the exact location on the map. β
Li Zi'an was stunned when he heard it, almost all the knowledge he had in high school was returned to the teacher, and the calculation method that the military advisor said was equivalent to a book from heaven to him, and he couldn't understand it at all. However, just because the military advisor is an Oxford scholar, his heart is already full of confidence and expectations for success.
"Come on, come on, you say how to get it, I'll be your assistant. "He can't wait.
Sharna untied her backpack, took out the satellite map prepared in advance from her backpack, compared the terrain, and then pointed to a place on the map and said: "We are here now, just use this as coordinate A, you activate the compass, and I will determine the direction on the map." β
Li Zi'an immediately activated the compass.
Sharna looked at the compass, then took out a ruler and pen and drew a line on the map.
The line stretched out into the Himalayas, and on the map, if it had been extended, it would have reached the capital of the Westlands.
Sharna put away the map and tools: "Let's go, let's elbow to the right and set the coordinates B when the needle of the compass changes direction." β
Li Zi'an nodded, reached out and pulled Sharna up, and then moved sideways to the right.
The walk lasted another two hours, and it was not until it was dark that the compass hand changed direction and pointed in the direction of 10 o'clock.
Sharna took out a ruler and pen and drew a line on the printed satellite map. The two lines crossed not far from the Westland border, and a triangle appeared on the satellite map.
Li Zi'an looked at the triangular area, looked at the peaks, looked at the valley, looked at the ravine, looked for something special, but saw nothing.
By this time, Sharna had finished her calculations, using a ruler to compare the triangle and circle a place in the triangle.
Li Zi'an stared at the place she circled, it was a basin surrounded by mountains, there was no way to enter, it was like a wine glass placed by heaven in the middle of the Himalayas, but there was no wine in it, only ice and snow.
"If I'm not mistaken, this is where we're looking, and from this map, there's nothing," Sharna said. Our current location is 117 kilometers from there, but that is only a straight line distance, and we have to climb over a snow-capped mountain at least 7,000 meters to get there. At our current rate, it will take us 4 days to get there. β
Xueba is Xueba, even the distance and time have been calculated, such a complicated and difficult thing, she uses a ruler, a pen to simplify the difficult to easy.
Li Zi'an said happily: "In this way, our food reserves are just enough, let's camp here tonight and rest, and then set off early tomorrow morning." β
Sharna smiled and said, "Pitch your tent and I'll take care of the food." β
Li Zi'an was slightly stunned: "Didn't you bring a tent?"
Sharna nodded: "In such an environment, what are you doing with so many tents, just two people squeezing together." β
Li Zi'an: "......"
