It was true that no one had traveled on this road, or perhaps because it had been so long, and it was all covered with snow again, and under the thick snow was a hard layer of ice.

The crampons were firmly grasped on the ice, Li Zimu plunged the icicle into the ice, tied it to one end with the main rope, and the four people pulled the rope and walked forward slowly to prevent slipping and stumbling.

There was a team of people around, white down jackets and white hats and backpacks, completely integrating the four people with this white world, if you didn't look at it closely, you wouldn't know that there were four people here, moving in the direction of the north.

Because of the tight wrapping, a few people were not very cold, mainly because the oxygen density here is very low, and it is very difficult to exercise vigorously, so everyone did not go too quickly.

Li Zimu used an ice axe to insert an ice axe into the road in front of him to check whether it was strong, and at the same time swept away the snow next to him with his feet, leaving a path for a few people behind to follow.

The wind was very strong, and several people clung to what they could hold on to to the side to prevent their center of gravity from being blown by the wind.

Fortunately, they passed diagonally, the slope was not very steep, and it was relatively gentle, so it was a lot less troublesome.

From here, you can see the north side of the road, but it looks close, but it actually takes a while to get there.

The north peak is only a little lower than Everest, and the climbing coefficient is also very high, and the slope is steeper from this direction, with the two peaks juxtaposing side by side into the sky.

The four of them are as small as four ants in this white world, and it is difficult to say that it is difficult, but it is still a little difficult.

Fortunately, Li Zimu has rich experience in mountaineering, and walking in front to open up the road has reduced a lot of pressure and risk for the three people behind.

However, relatively, the task of leading is also more arduous, as stable as plum wood, and it has also fallen as many as three times, if it was replaced by Zhuge Yinglong to take the lead, it is estimated that it would have slipped below......

Falling is an inevitable situation during climbing, and a broken fulcrum means that where the hands and feet do not grasp, the body will slide down, facing the danger of injury or death, and it is believed that people who climb snowy mountains have experienced this situation.

From the distance they had crawled over, it was not difficult to calculate that the distance from the diagonal line from their snow line to the north was about seven or eight kilometers, and now they had walked almost half the distance, and in another hour, they would almost reach their destination.

Li Zimu is not in a hurry, it is only twelve o'clock, after arriving in Beimiao, at one o'clock, take a break and eat something, and then investigate, it is definitely too late to go back before dark.

It is impossible to set up a tent on the snowy mountain, the temperature is too low, the wind is too strong, and there is a high possibility that you will freeze to death on it, so you generally have to return to the foot of the mountain before dark to climb the snowy mountain.

"Where can there be medicinal herbs here, except for ice and snow......"

Zhuge Yinglong gasped lightly and said, he was still expecting to see any precious medicinal materials, but it turned out that Mao had never seen a single one......

"There will be no plants above the snow line, and medicinal herbs will grow below the snow line."

Li Zimu said speechlessly, isn't this kid known as Bai Xiaosheng in the rivers and lakes? Why is there no common sense at all, the snow line is covered with snow all year round, how can there be plants, those snow lotuses or whatever, they all grow below the snow line.

"There's a big bird!"

The spirit pointed to a place not far away and said excitedly, they had walked for so long, and finally saw a creature other than them, and it was a bird, a big bird.

"That's the Tibetan Snow Pheasant," Li Zimu said, with dark gray and white fur, orange claws and beak, it is a bird that lives on the snowy mountains, but their luck is good, and ordinary people rarely see it.

"Hey, it must taste very good, I'm sure, it's ......a big supplement," Zhuge Yinglong licked his lips and said, when he saw this wild bird, his first thought was not what it was called, but whether it was delicious......

"If you can catch it," Li Zimu said indifferently, most of these animals living on the snow-capped mountains are agile and athletic, and they can easily run around on the steep rock walls......

"Above Mount Everest, are there any animals living?" Chi Ling asked curiously, as a family of witches who have raised Gu for generations, she is still very interested in animals, and the focus is still on those animals that are relatively small, because these animals can be used to make Gu seeds.

"There are jumping spiders, very small, creatures that can survive on the top of Mount Everest," Li Zimu nodded and said, not surprised by the curiosity of the spirit.

"What's that?"

Pudding, who rarely spoke along the way, suddenly looked at a place directly below them at this time and asked suspiciously, in the white ice and snow world, a little other color made her pay attention.

"Clothes......" Li Zimu glanced at it and said lightly, it was a person's clothes, red, but a little bit was exposed, and most of the place was blocked by snow.

"Clothes??......?

Zhuge Yinglong licked his lips and said, it was windy here, and his lips were quickly chapped, and he had to moisten it with saliva from time to time......

"The clothes of the dead, which fell from above"

Li Zimu coughed lightly and continued, their heads were on the north slope of Mount Everest, it was very steep, and it was not surprising that they fell from it and fell to their deaths.

"You mean, it's a corpse?!"

Zhuge Yinglong was startled when he heard this, he simply thought it was a piece of clothing, but he didn't expect it to be a corpse that fell from above......

Obediently, out of sight is pure, out of sight is pure......

"Don't make such a fuss, there are a lot of corpses on this Mount Everest"

Li Zimu glanced at him and said lightly, there are so many corpses on Mount Everest that they can form signposts all the way, and you can almost see it up the snow line, and those who climbed to the top of the mountain, if they didn't see ten corpses, they saw at least eight corpses.

It was too difficult to move the corpses back, and the temperature here was very low, so the result was that it would freeze into ice and melt into the snowy mountain, so there would be no decay and spread of the plague, so there was no need to worry.

The distance from Bei Mian is shortening step by step at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the eye of heaven in the backpack is lit up with more green silk, and Li Zimu doesn't need to open the backpack to see it at all, he only needs to scan it with his divine sense.

That's right, these hundred altars are very likely to be under the ice in the north, but there is still some distance from the north here, and his divine sense can't detect that far.

The more he got to this time, the more he couldn't be anxious, Li Zimu had always known this truth, so he was still unhurried to lead the way in front.
