Chapter 328: A Journey to the Snow Mountain
Leng Mo slowly raised his hand and pointed to the pure white snow-capped mountains in the distance.
"In the overall position, the second peak corresponds to the girl's left cheek, and I guess the treasure is at the location of the mole, which is halfway up the mountain."
Xu Xiangsi suddenly realized, and looked at the man with adoring eyes. Before she could praise her, a faint tone came.
"It's late, go to bed first, and climb the mountain early tomorrow morning."
There was a red fire dancing in the fireplace, and the whole room was warm like spring.
Xu Xiangsi curled up in the man's warm embrace, which made her feel at ease, and coupled with the fatigue of the journey, she soon fell asleep quietly.
Even in my dreams, I still have a beautiful yearning for treasures.
Unexpectedly, the next morning, there was bad news.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew in the town, and the Southern Alps in the distance were even stronger because of the large number of mountains.
They had planned to take a helicopter directly to the halfway point of the side peak, but this sudden change made the plan ruined.
Xu Xiangsi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, listening to the wind whistling outside, with a sad face.
"It's so windy, it seems that we won't be able to climb the mountain today."
There was a sound of "Xi Xi Suosuo" behind him, and Xu Xiangsi asked in surprise as soon as he looked back.
"What are you doing?"
The man neatly put on a jacket, and on the side, a scarf, goggles, hiking boots, and everything was available.
"Mountaineering."
"You're not kidding, are you?" Xu Xiangsi asked in surprise, "Such a high mountain, do you want to climb it step by step?" ”
Leng Mo tightened his hiking boots, got up slowly, his deep eyes were calm, and he asked rhetorically.
"Or else?"
“……”
"You stay here, I'll take Kuroko up."
Although Xu Xiangsi didn't want to hike the mountain, he kept thinking about the treasure handed down by the Bain family, and his heart began to itch again.
"I've figured it out, I'm going with you."
"Are you sure?"
"Of course!"
Under the slightly surprised gaze of the man, Xu Xiangsi struggled to put on a jacket, fully armed with three layers inside and three layers outside.
After a while, the door was pushed open, and Kuroko strode in.
He placed two bulging hiking bags on the coffee table.
"Boss, I've got something ready. There was enough food and water in the bag, as well as the necessary climbing tools. The treasure is buried at an altitude of about 3,000 meters, and according to the records left by previous climbers, altitude sickness or hypoxia is likely to occur at 2,600 meters, so oxygen cylinders are also prepared. ”
Leng Mo pondered for a moment and asked, "How long can these things last?" ”
"Food and water will keep you going for seven days, and oxygen for only two days."
Xu Xiangsi couldn't help but say, "In other words, in an area above 2,600 meters, the stay time cannot exceed two days." ”
"Madame is very smart, that's what I mean, besides, please take this."
Looking at the two small headset-like things lying in the palm of Heizi's hand, Xu Xiangsi couldn't help but ask, "What is this?" ”
"Radio liaison. If you encounter danger along the way, remember to contact me by radio, and I will be ready to rescue immediately. ”
Xu Xiangsi patted Kuroko's shoulder and smiled encouragingly.
"Yes, you've prepared very thoroughly, thank you for your hard work!"
"Thank you, Madame, for the compliment."
After that, Kuroko drove an off-road vehicle and sent Xu Xiangsi and Leng Mo to the foot of the side peak.
Everything is ready, and this treasure hunt has finally begun.
Just when Xu Xiangsi was gearing up and was already eager to try, another off-road vehicle slowly drove away.
The door opened, and a pair of black hiking boots poked out, and then a handsome young man in full armor leaned out.
It was Bill.
"Hi old friend, we're meeting again!"
He greeted with a smile and walked over with his bag on his back.
Xu Xiangsi rolled her eyes. This Bill is really haunted, following everywhere he goes.
"What are you doing here?"
"That's right. Last night, I went back to my room and studied the picture carefully, and found that the result that Mr. Leng said was wrong, and the real secret of that picture actually lies in the ......"
"The mole, isn't it?" Xu Xiangsi asked with a sneer.
"Yes!" Bill clapped his hands, "That's the mole!" I'm worried that you haven't figured it out, so I've come here to tell you! ”
Xu Xiangsi secretly felt a little funny in his heart.
I'm afraid that this man has figured out whether it is fake, and when he sees them coming this way, it is true that he is cheeky and comes over.
She was already faintly dissatisfied, but the cold man beside her was seriously checking the equipment, and there was no indication of anything.
Xu Xiangsi squatted beside Leng Mo, glanced back at Bill, and lowered his voice.
"This cheeky guy is going to follow us, what should we do, find a way to blow him away?"
Leng Mo didn't say a word, he put the backpack on his back, and his face was as cold as the peak line of the Southern Alps, with sharp edges and corners.
"If he wants to follow, then follow, do you think you can blow him away?"
Xu Xiangsi was stunned for a moment, and then glanced back at Bill, the guy was standing not far away, looking at this side with a smile.
It doesn't seem like there's much to be done.
Bill walked over quickly, his smile full of confidence, "Actually, you should be glad that I followed you!" ”
"Hehe, I'm glad I did." Xu Xiangsi couldn't be more fake.
"I'm serious!" Bill suddenly straightened a little.
"Let me tell you the truth! My real identity is that I am a member of the Wilderness Explorers Association! There is no destination that I can't reach, and there is no treasure that I can't find. This snow-capped mountain seems to be calm, but in fact it is very dangerous, without me, you can't get there! ”
Bill boasted about himself here, but Xu Xiangsi didn't believe it at all.
Just as he was about to say another sarcastic, the cold man on the side spoke.
"It's not too early, it's time to go."
“…… Oh. ”
The three of them packed their bags, braved the cold wind, and officially launched an attack on the snow peak in front of them.
Above the town, Mo Huairen stood at the highest point of the ancient castle.
With a cigar between his fingers, his jewel-covered ring, he smiled as he looked out over the Southern Alps in the distance.
Everything was as he had planned, and Leng Mo really entered the mountain.
On the side, Bernhorst withdrew his gaze and asked puzzledly.
"Mr. Mo, how can you conclude that Leng Mo will definitely get where we want him to be?"
Mo Huairen's eyes were like torches, and he spit out a sentence in a leisurely tone.
"He won't let me down because he's smart."
"But the situation on this snowy mountain is too complicated, I have been up and down soon, it is so terrible that people can easily get lost."
"You think I'm not going to think about that?"
Mo Huairen said and took out the radio.
"Bill, how's it going?"
In the midst of a blur of noise, Bill's respectful answer was heard.
"Boss, I'm already on my way with them."
"Very good, follow them closely, you are familiar with this route, you must bring them to their destination smoothly, don't mess me up!"
"Don't worry, boss, leave everything to me!"
Mo Huairen put away the radio with satisfaction, and looked at the surprised man on the side with a deep gaze.
"You see?"
Bernhorst put away the surprise in his eyes and turned to a look of adoration.
"Amazing, Mr. Mo! I didn't expect you to think it so thoroughly, it's really admirable! ”
"It's nothing, remember, don't underestimate me Mo Huairen."
Bernhorst sighed again, "With a mind like yours, it's no wonder that you can mix well in the Italian organization!" ”
Mo Huairen casually dropped the cigar, walked slowly past Bernhorst, and patted him on the shoulder.
"Mr. Bain, I am grateful for your assistance this time. I'll say a few nice words for you in front of the leader of the organization. ”
When Bernhorst heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and nodded respectfully to the man's back.
"Mr. Mo, I'll leave it all up to you about me joining the organization!"
A conspiracy is quietly brewing, and the people targeted by this conspiracy are now struggling in the snowy mountains.
"No, I can't walk!"
As soon as Xu Xiangsi's voice fell, his legs were weak, and he knelt in the snow nest with a "plop".
The man in front of him stopped and looked back slowly, with a bit of banter in his glittering eyes.
"That's not going to work? It's too late to go back now. ”
