Chapter Eighty-Seven: Picking Flowers
If there is no special training, it is difficult for people with sound hands to maintain their balance when climbing chains at high altitudes, not to mention that at this time, half of my body tends to be paralyzed, lying on the rickety chains and crumbling, behind me are friends waiting for treatment, and under me is an abyss, and the psychological pressure can be imagined.

Every time I swam forward, the chains were shaken, so I had to pause each time, waiting for the chains to calm down before continuing, and so on, and it took me five minutes to climb to the middle of the snow lotus and the origin.
At this time, I was exhausted, and the arm that was clinging to the chain had begun to tremble unconsciously, and I didn't know how long I could hold on, and I could not bear to fall in the next second to carry out such a high-risk operation in such an unstable state.
Thinking like this, I couldn't help but look down, the black and secluded abyss was extremely mysterious, as if leading to the realm of Yellow Springs, and in an instant, an extreme sense of fear spread throughout my body, and my brain even appeared in a state of thoughtlessness for a short time.
In this short moment, I suddenly came back to my senses, and suddenly felt that my body was loosened, and my legs wrapped in the chain actually slipped down, and before I could react, the lower half of my body fell sideways.
"Be careful!" Yu Aiting and Uncle Liu were obviously frightened by me, and they reminded loudly in unison.
I once saw such a sentence in a psychology book, saying that whether human beings can survive in the face of a desperate situation mainly depends on their psychological state, and the survivors must be untouched and have a sense of involvement, so trying to survive at the moment of danger can stimulate their own potential strength; The deceased, usually pessimists, will give up on themselves when the catastrophe comes, and even if they are lucky enough to escape death, they will carry a huge shadow for the rest of their lives, their mental will will be destroyed, and they will suffer from serious mental illness, and in severe cases, they will seek relief by self-harm. In other words, the human will can determine a person's fate in a critical moment, and I am in my youth, and the whole family is looking for my grandfather to hope for the reunion of the whole family, and I have not tasted love so far, how can I be willing to end here?
Just as the lower half of my body slipped off the chain, I gritted my teeth and grabbed the chain with one hand with all my strength.
This sudden falling force almost dislocated my arm, pulling my arm painfully, Yu Aiting saw that I was so dangerous, and said with a crying voice: "Come back, don't go, it's too dangerous." ā
Uncle Liu also said with concern: "Yes, if you really can't do it, don't force it, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood!" ā
I had the strength to answer them now, I shook my head with my back to them, I slowly swung my legs, the chain began to shake violently, due to inertia, my body swayed more and more, I took a deep breath, and stiffened my waist with a loud cry, and my whole body shook high, and suddenly turned over and lay on the chain again.
The violent shaking of the chain made me dare not be careless at all, but I waited patiently for it to calm down, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief, only then did I realize that my whole body had been soaked with sweat, and the cold continued to blow from the abyss, and the sweat became very cold, and I couldn't help but shiver.
Uncle Liu stood for a moment, and praised weakly: "Good boy, there is really a kind!" ā
Yu Aiting helped him and said a little eagerly: "You better come back, let's think of other ways." ā
I have a bitter saying in my heart, because of the limited conditions, I now have no room for maneuver, the difficulty coefficient of retreat is much greater than moving forward, rather than retreating and waiting for death, it is better to be willing to cut a body, and directly pick the snow lotus in the ground to seek a glimmer of life.
I replied, "Don't be startled, don't frighten me down, wait and then Snow Lotus." ā
When I said this, the two of them were really silent, and I just finished clean, rested a little and regained some strength, and continued to crawl forward.
With the lesson just now, I no longer dared to look down at the abyss below, I looked up straight ahead, forcing myself to imagine the abyss below as flat ground, and the psychological pressure was suddenly much less.
After a long time of resting and climbing, I finally came across the gold chest.
At a closer look, the four bottom corners of this gold chest have been slightly worn to the iron chains, and the worn places are not golden yellow, but dark yellow, it seems that this box is a copper box, but the surface is plated with a thin layer of gold water.
From below, the box seemed to be small, but when I saw it up close, I realized that it was not, and it was four feet long and two feet wide, and it was gilded throughout, and there was no connection to be seen, it was a completely closed box.
I climbed on the box with my hand, and it was cold to the touch, and it was as cold as ice. I was so tired from lying on the chain that I had to climb onto the box to rest and prepare for the picking, and I had to do it on the box when I turned around and went back.
I didn't care much, so I endured the cold and crawled onto the box, my chest and stomach shivering from the ice.
The box was in the center of the abyss, and it would shake very much at the slightest movement, so I didn't dare to move, so I adjusted my posture with extremely slow movements and sat down in the middle of the box.
I made an ok gesture to Yu Aiting and Uncle Liu, because the distance was a little far away, and the light of the candle was slightly shaking, I couldn't see their facial expressions clearly, and I only saw them reaching out together and giving me a thumbs up.
At this time, I suddenly touched the top of the box and it seemed to be a little uneven, because I was in a high place, the upper surface of the box was just backlit, and I couldn't see the lines on the box at all.
I touched it with my hand, but I didn't have any clue, so I simply didn't pay attention to it, and now picking the Jizo Snow Lotus is the main thing, and the rest will be talked about when the time comes.
I slowly lay on the box, and a chill ran down my chest and into my heart, and I couldn't help but shiver from the cold.
I slowly found the balance point in the middle of the box, my head just reached out of the box, and at this time I was facing the dark and boundless underground abyss, a strong feeling of dizziness came, I quickly closed my eyes, reached out and touched the bottom of the box.
The Jizo Snow Lotus grows in the center of the bottom of the box, and my arm looks a little short after bending at the bottom corner of the box, and my fingertips just touch the edge of the snow lotus's petals.
A cold tingling sensation came from my fingertips, and my fingers reflexively shrank back, and quickly put them in my mouth to keep warm, which eased my frozen fingers.
"This Jizo Snow Lotus is too icy to touch at all, is there any way to do it?" After trying again and again, I was a little helpless, so I asked Uncle Liu and Yu Aiting for help.
Obviously, Uncle Liu also saw such a magical thing for the first time, and hurriedly asked Yu Aiting's opinion, the two of them muttered for a while, Yu Aiting suddenly said loudly: "I remember, when Sun Simiao's "Qianjin Fang" describes the Dizang Snow Lotus, it is said that it is the coldest thing, and it does not melt into the throat, and it needs to be taken with the blood of Tongyang as a medicine, in short, the blood of Tongyang should be able to be neutralized with it, this Jizang Snow Lotus is almost transparent, the years are long, the cold is too heavy, and it is not something that ordinary people can bear." ā
"The blood of the child's sun? What's that? "I was a little confused, I heard that the word should mean the blood of a little boy, where am I going to catch a child now?
