Chapter 97: Snowhoppers (2)
After walking for about two hours, Zhang Fan and the others, who were sleepy, found a flat place and set up a tent on the spot.
And Fang Zhou and the others were cheeky and asked to be crowded together in a tent with them.
Zhang Fan and Qian Lang looked hesitant and embarrassed, Leng Xingyun put his hand behind him and secretly tugged at the corner of their clothes.
All three turned around at the same time, their backs to the four.
"Promise them." Leng Xingyun whispered: "When you are on the same road with them tomorrow morning, you will continue to talk. ”
"There's one thing we've always been curious about." Zhang Fan asked, "Why do you want to know so much about the real purpose of their coming here?" ”
"If they're really here for the treasure, I wonder if their purpose is really just for the treasure? Or the treasure of the best jade - Snow Mountain Ice Spirit? ”
"Snow Mountain Ice Spirit?" Zhang Fan said.
"The finest jade?" Qian Langdao.
"Is it worth a lot?" The two of them asked with great interest at the same time.
"Can't describe how much it's worth." Leng Xingyun explained: "The vast majority of people have never heard of or seen it, but according to legend, those who have heard and seen it say that it is worth a fortune.
Ordinary rich people can't afford it at all, and those who are rich enough to rival the country can have and deserve to have. I was fortunate enough to see a snow-capped mountain, but unfortunately......
It doesn't matter, if they're really for the snow mountain...... I'm not sure if I should help them or kill them. ”
"Why do you say that?" Qian Lang asked.
"Why do you want to kill them, is it just for the priceless snow-capped mountains and ice spirits?" Zhang Fan asked puzzledly, and at the same time, his favorability towards Leng Xingyun decreased by one point.
Leng Xingyun sighed with a complicated expression, and stopped talking.
Zhang Fan still wanted to ask, but was pulled by Qian Lang and turned to Fang Zhou and the others: "My boss agreed, you put the tent next to us, and said that we should go together when we are in a hurry, and there is no need to divide the order."
Because, since you are still safe and sound, it means that you are not parasitized by snow lice, we are suspicious, and I apologize to you on behalf of my boss. ”
The people of the ark hurriedly said some high-sounding polite words to the two, and then each set up their tents and fell into a deep sleep.
Early in the morning, the seven people woke up, finished eating and drinking, and Zhang Fan decided to divide the number of people into two rows.
Zhang Fan, Leng Xingyun, Fang Zhou, Ding Rou, one row in front; Qian Lang, Kong Xiaoyi, and Su Xiaojing lined up, each holding an ice axe and began to gradually climb towards the mountain road of the snow-capped mountain.
In the afternoon, the personnel were reorganized.
Zhang Fan, Kong Xiaoyi, and Su Xiaojing lined up in front; Qian Lang, Leng Xingyun, Fang Zhou, and Ding Rou were in the back.
After a whole day of testing each other, the two groups of people unknowingly missed a little bit of the tone to each other.
In the end, Zhang Fan concluded that the ark did come for the treasure, and they did know the model and caliber of common guns, as for whether they brought guns or not, it is still uncertain.
Zhang Fan asked, but was denied by the other party. But when it comes to the legendary treasure of the best being the Snow Mountain Ice Spirit, and asks them if they have heard of it, although they are also denying it, it is obviously unnatural.
There is also information that the Ark is not a veteran treasure hunter, but has only carried out three treasure hunting activities. Two of them failed, one was really a treasure, but it was not very valuable, and after selling it, each person was divided into tens of thousands.
Therefore, he is neither a veteran nor a novice, but a half-baked with rough experience. But the actions of a few half-hangers this time do not seem to be taking the initiative to explore the treasure, but being hired.
Because Kong Xiaoyi inadvertently said a word, because when he was in a daze while walking, Zhang Fan asked: "What are you thinking, so engrossed?" ”
Kong Xiaoyi replied casually absentmindedly: "It was originally planned to give one million, 100,000 per person, and the remaining 100,000 is for our equipment." But now there are only four of us left, and I wonder how we will divide the money then? ”
Obviously, Kong Xiaoyi was in a trance, mistaking Zhang Fan for his own person, and blurted out without thinking. was touched by Su Xiaojing's arm, Kong Xiaoyi reacted at this time, smiled wryly, and did not explain.
On the Fang Ark side, I felt that Zhang Fan and they could even come out alive in a place like Demon Valley, and they were indeed very capable and had enough exploration experience; Moreover, the purpose of their coming to the Shuangsheng Snow Mountain may be for the thousand-year-old Red Snow Lotus.
The reason why it is possible, not certain, is only because when Qian Lang was speaking, he inadvertently asked them: "Have you heard of the thousand-year-old red snow lotus?" ”
Although they have heard of it, after all, it is said that it only blooms once in a thousand years, and it feels too ethereal, and even if there is such a plant, it is really not something that ordinary lucky people can find, it is definitely a person who is favored by God.
However, how many of the world's seven billion people can be blessed by God to encounter something that is rare in a thousand years?
So, the Ark they just laughed it off and denied having heard of the plant.
It's not dusk yet, and the air gets thinner and thinner the farther you go, the colder the wind, and the lower the temperature. So the seven men found a place with rocks to shelter the leeward, pitched their tents, and set up a bonfire.
They ate and drank and chatted, and it was just night, and they went back to their tents to rest.
And Zhang Fan and the three of them huddled in a tent and chatted softly, in fact, they analyzed what they knew and guessed......
Until the second half of the night, Zhang Fan and Qian Lang each got into their sleeping bags and fell asleep, while Leng Xingyun sat in their tent to rest.
It didn't take long for him to suddenly hear Kong Xiaoyi's cry for help, which was exactly the same as Xiao Jin.
Zhang Fan and the three of them had been awakened by Kong Xiaoyi's hoarse first shout.
"it!" Qian Lang exclaimed: "Could it be that Kong Xiaoyi also has snow lice in his body?" Now the snow lice burst out? ”
"No matter, let's go check it out first." Zhang Fan said, then hurriedly got dressed with Qian Lang and went out with Leng Xingyun to check.
However, Kong Xiaoyi's tent zipper was not locked, and the moment Fang Zhou opened the zipper, his face was not only shocked, but also filled with some fear and despair.
Because the condition of Kong Xiaoyi in the tent is almost the same as Xiao Jin's condition last night, but it is different, but it is worse than Xiao Jin.
Because Xiao Jin was lying on the ground at that time, he couldn't even lift his head, and no one saw his expression.
But although Kong Xiaoyi was also lying on the ground, his head could be raised, and he saw that his face was full of pain, and snow lice were crawling out of his mouth, nostrils and ear canals, along with blood, and some white pulp that seemed to be as thick as snot.
That's exactly **!
Seeing this, Ding Rou and Su Xiaojing screamed "ah", and then took a few steps back, giggling and nauseous.
"Save ...... I ......" Kong Xiaoyi tried to squeeze words out of his throat in a voice that had become hoarse and almost out of voice: "I...... Don't want to...... Die, save ...... I ......"
"I'm sorry, my old classmate, my good brother! You...... Let's go! At the moment when Fang Zhou lit the lighter, except for Ding Rou and Su Xiaojing, who withdrew to vomit, they didn't see it, Zhang Fan and Fang Zhou both saw Kong Xiaoyi looking at Fang Zhou with extremely resentful eyes.
"Report ...... Should! You...... Sooner or later...... Also...... Want...... Meet with...... Retribution ......"
Kong Xiaoyi didn't seem to have finished speaking, so he heard Fang Zhou tell them to retreat quickly, and then he lit the tent with a lighter.
