Chapter 129: Adventure Snow Lotus Picking
When Luo Feng and the three of them came to Kunlun Town, it was already ten o'clock at dusk. They found an inn to stay in.
This night, Luo Feng didn't sleep well because he was worried. Gu Xiaodong and Xi Xuan were sleepless because of excitement. So the three of them got up early to go to breakfast.
Downstairs, only the three of them were eating. Because the hour is still early, the other guests have not yet risen.
When the innkeeper heard that they were going to the Snow Mountain, he shook his head and said, "The Snow Mountain is covered with snow all year round and is inaccessible. Don't risk it, everyone! ”
"Thank you boss for your concern! We are going to pick snow lotus for medicinal purposes! When Gu Xiaodong said, his expression was very proud.
"I say young people! You don't know if you can return safely, what are you talking about snow lotus medicine? "The innkeeper is a talker. Although his words were not listened to, Gu Xiaodong felt that people had good intentions when he heard them.
"Dude! Since we're here, there's no reason not to go! What else do we need to prepare? Luo Feng got up and arched his hand.
"Bring some oil thread and felt! The snowy mountains are cold, the felt can be insulated from the cold, and it can also be burned for heating! Wine and rope are indispensable. Oh, and skateboards, which will make your trip faster!" The innkeeper snapped his fingers and muttered.
Luo Feng and the three thanked him for it, and went to buy it. By the time they were ready, it was already dawn.
The driver brought them to a halt at the mountain junction. Luo Feng and the others changed into fox fur jackets and wool boots, and walked into the mountains with the necessary items.
There is no snow on the mountain ahead, and the vegetation on the mountain is lush and the temperature is relatively mild.
Luo Feng carried the felt on his back, Gu Xiaodong dragged the skateboard, and Xi Xuan carried the food on his back. The three of them climbed to the top of the hill and sat down to rest.
"Look at the snowy mountains!" Xi Xuan pointed to the snow-capped mountains in the distance and shouted excitedly.
The mountains glowed blue in the daylight. The mountain is abrupt and looks very steep. Luo Feng's eyes were full of worry. He hesitated. He has passed the heroic days of young people, and his calm and calm habits of handling cases for many years have made him have a special perception of danger.
Gu Xiaodong and Xi Xuan chattered non-stop. They are curious and yearning for the unknown.
"This snow lotus is not so easy to pick!" Luo Feng pondered for a long time before trying to say.
"That's it! But someone must have been here! At least the master or elder in that Yunlang has picked it! I'm sure the wooden box he gave us was the one Sheng Xuelian used! Gu Xiaodong's words made Xi Xuan want to see his box.
Gu Xiaodong took off the box on his back and showed it to Xi Xuan. Xi Xuan opened it and said, "This box still has a faint fragrance!" ”
"It's the smell of wood!" Gu Xiaodong rewrapped the wooden box and carried it on his back.
"Let's go!" Luo Feng couldn't say anything more, he could only take Gu Xiaodong and the others to continue to move forward.
At night, they came to the foot of the snow-capped mountains. Luo Feng lit a fire, and the three of them ate dry food around the fire.
At the end, Gu Xiaodong drank wine and lay on the felt, and fell asleep with his head resting on Luo Feng's knees.
"What do you want Snow Lotus to do?" Luo Feng asked Xi Xuan, who was about to lie down.
"I want snow lotus seeds!" Xi Xuan pondered for a while, and then she covered the light cicada silk quilt and fell asleep.
Luo Feng meditated and practiced quietly until dawn. When Gu Xiaodong and Xi Xuan woke up, they found Luo Feng burning wood.
"What are you doing?" Gu Xiaodong looked at Luo Feng strangely.
"Make simple charcoal!" Luo Feng's words made Gu Xiaodong and Xi Xuan curious. At noon, Luo Feng carried the charcoal he had made on his back, and then they began to walk up the snowy mountain together.
They stopped halfway up the mountain to rest for a while. Luo Feng looked at the steep cliffs on both sides of the path paved with thick snow leading to the top of the mountain, and couldn't help but be secretly frightened.
"Don't look at it! Give me the long rope! Gu Xiaodong tied the long rope handed to him by Luo Feng around his waist, then untied the wine jug, drank two sips and said, "I'll go first!" You can hold on to the rope and save effort! ”
"Be careful!" Luo Feng instructed Gu Xiaodong.
Gu Xiaodong took a deep breath, and then he swept towards the path with an extremely fast body.
Luo Feng's heart rose to his throat, and he looked at Gu Xiaodong, who was like a swallow, without blinking.
"His light work is so good! It's fast, too! Xi Xuan couldn't help but praise.
When Gu Xiaodong stood in front of the cliff opposite, Luo Feng's hanging heart couldn't help but let go.
Gu Xiaodong chose a big tree, tied the long rope to the trunk, and then he picked up the rope and wrapped it around his hand. Finally, he threw the loop over with great force.
The rope flew in circles with Gu Xiaodong's strength. Luo Feng saw the opportunity to sink and grabbed the rope.
"I'll bring these skateboards and felt! Take as much as you can with the rest, and put the rest here, and we'll need it when we get back! After Luo Feng finished speaking, he dragged the rope and flew forward.
Because he was holding a skateboard in one hand, he left a trail of footprints of varying shades on the snowy path.
After Luo Feng passed, Gu Xiaodong threw the rope to Xi Xuan. Xi Xuan only brought some dry food and a saber and pulled the rope over.
Luo Feng and the three of them climbed over the mountain and saw a white valley in the distance. On the other side of the valley, the rocks stood straight. A towering mountain comes into view.
The three of Luo Feng stepped on the scooter and glided. Gu Xiaodong accidentally played too much, planted off the ski, and threw himself into the snow.
Luo Feng and Xi Xuan stopped and pulled him out of the snow.
"It's too deep in the snow!" Gu Xiaodong shouted as he looked at his body and threw himself into the snow cave that had formed.
"Silence!" Luo Feng warned Gu Xiaodong.
"There's no one here, who am I in the way?" Gu Xiaodong asked Luo Feng puzzled.
"Speak loudly here, it will cause an avalanche!" Luo Feng said softly.
"No, it won't!" Gu Xiaodong looked at the snow-capped mountain in front of him in disbelief.
"You said you wanted to listen to me!" Luo Feng said with a straight face.
"Okay! From now on, I promise not to speak again! Gu Xiaodong glanced at Luo Feng, and then ran to the front on his skis.
The three of them came to the bottom of the steep snowy peak, but they were worried. There is no road here, how can you get there?
"And voila! There's a pine tree at the top of that peak! Luo Feng said softly.
Gu Xiaodong untied the rope around his waist and threw it at the tree. Unfortunately, the mountain is too high, and the rope can't be relied on at all.
"Xi Xuan! See those three trees? Wait a minute, I'll go first, and then you can go too, stand on my shoulders and build a personal ladder for Xiaodong! After Luo Feng finished speaking, he put down his skis and flew to the first two trees to the third tree.
Xi Xuan imitated Luo Feng's appearance and flew up to his shoulder. Gu Xiaodong took the rope, clicked over the two trees, jumped on Xi Xuan's shoulder, and then threw out the rope. The rope finally wrapped around the tree.
Gu Xiaodong grabbed the rope and came to the peak. When he saw three snow lotuses, he couldn't help but exclaim, "I found it!" ”
"Xiaodong! Silence! Before Luo Feng's words fell, he only felt that his feet began to tremble.
Gu Xiaodong also felt that something was wrong. He grabbed two snow lotuses and stuffed them in his arms, then dragged the rope and flew down.
Luo Feng and Xi Xuan had already gotten off the tree and stood on their skis. As soon as Gu Xiaodong landed, Luo Feng kicked the skis at his feet.
"Run!" Luo Feng pulled Xi Xuan and slid out. Gu Xiaodong dragged the rope and flew on the skis. Behind him, the snow waves rolled and chased after him.
