Now there is still a road, and everyone feels very easy, but after walking more than ten miles, there will be no road, and the horses and plows can no longer be used, and then they can only carry equipment and luggage on the shoulders of each person and the horse. Everyone has to cross two high ridges to get close to Toad Mountain, Jin Wei guide reminded everyone that you can't make a fire in the mountain, it's inconvenient to eat, you must eat more now, otherwise you can't get close to Toad Mountain before dark. It is estimated that those led by his brother Jin Tae have already entered Toad Mountain.

Under the greeting of Brother Qiang, everyone cleaned up the scene and went on the road. As Jin Wei said, the road is getting narrower and narrower, and the trees and weeds are getting denser and denser, and the road can no longer be seen, so Jin Wei has to pull his horse, pick up the gaps in the trees and walk, and climb the plow to rattle on the small trees and weeds, thanks to the thick snow in the ground.

By noon, most of the 80-kilometer journey had been completed, and a serious problem arose at this time, there was no road in the mountains, and the plough could no longer walk. Everyone needs to carry a weight forward, and the weight of each person's equipment has reached 40 kilograms, plus guns and bullets, and everyone's weight is close to 100 kilograms.

Carrying hundreds of pounds of things on your back, stepping on knee-deep snow, and walking in the mountains, it sounds beautiful, but it is actually very cruel. There were a few young men from the south, who on several occasions rolled down the steep slopes, and although there were many trees in the woods, they were not injured, but they were also very embarrassed.

Jin Wei led the horse, immediately humped some equipment, and walked in front of the team. As he walked, he reminded everyone that it was going to snow, and that they had to climb the ridge before it got dark to reach the pass of Toad Mountain, otherwise they would not be able to camp on this steep mountain.

Everyone's physical strength is fine, it may be because they have just entered the mountain, or it may be that they have been relatively well prepared recently, and the speed of travel is not slow.

The sky was getting fast, there was still sunshine in the morning, and in the afternoon, the snow was falling. The snowflakes are falling in the birch forest, which is very beautiful and dreamy.

Several people from the south, including Lao Niu, Zhao Qingmai, Guo Sheng and others, were very impressed by the beautiful scenery in front of them. I only sighed in a hurry, and I couldn't appreciate the romance in it.

This section belongs to the depths of the Changbai Mountain forest area, the biggest feature of Changbai Mountain is the diversity of plant species, here is not like the larch of the Daxing Mountains, there are thousands of large and small plants here, there are hundreds of large and small tree species such as birch, oak, poplar, pine, etc., and there are a large number of shrubs. In this way, the steep slopes are secretly armed, and the tall and short plants are intertwined, making it difficult to walk.

Everyone has entered a period of fatigue, and it is very tiring to walk. The laughter in the group had stopped, and only the sound of gasps mingled with each other.

Ma Qian walked in the first half of the team, surrounded by the Huaxiong brothers and sisters, and several young people around him were already sweating profusely and panting. Looking at the heart of the painting again, the woman who had been silent did not show tiredness, but there was a little bead of sweat on the tip of her nose. It seems that this woman is not simple, her weight is the same as that of men, the only difference is that she does not carry a long gun, but a short gun pinned to her waist.

Ma Qian looked back, the team was no longer in formation, and more than a dozen people climbed up intermittently, for a total of four or five hundred meters. Zhao Baixiong was walking in the middle of the team, although this guy was walking vigorously, his head was full of heat, his face was red, and the snowflakes floating on his head were immediately steamed and melted. Most of the people have snow on their heads and bodies, and Zhao Baixiong's head is full of sweat, it seems that this guy has made himself too empty in the past six months.

Lao Niu and Zhao Qingmai walked at the end of the team, this is Ma Qian's arrangement, one is that Zhao Qingmai's legs and feet are not good, and the other is to let them play a role in reviewing the overall situation in the back. Walking with them were the doctor and Brother Qiang, Brother Qiang was also a little old, and he had been walking for most of the day, and his physical strength was obviously a little unable to keep up.

The mountain became steeper, Jin Wei kept beating the horse, the slope was too big, and the horse was very uncomfortable to walk, and it had to use a little violence against it before it would go up.

"Golden Guide, how long will it take to get to the mountain?" Seeing that the snow was getting heavier and heavier, Ma Qian couldn't help but ask, he was considering whether to let the team stop and rest.

"In another hour we can go up to the top of the mountain, and from the other side of the mountain, we will be able to go down to the pass of Toad Mountain. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, it was getting dark, and we had to get there before it got dark. You must not rest, hold on any longer, we have to go down to the bottom of the mountain in two hours, the snow is going to close the mountain, we must not stay on the mountain, once there is an avalanche, it will be terrible." Jin Wei's words were really true, and they were by no means alarmist, Ma Qian exchanged glances with Huaxiong, and immediately beckoned everyone, quickened his pace, and must go down to the bottom of the mountain before dark.

The snow is getting heavier and the visibility is low. There was already snow on the mountain, and with the new snow on the top, it was a mess. Basically, it is two steps and one slide, three steps and one slippery, and everyone can only use their hands and feet at the same time, climbing the trees around them, and climbing up with difficulty.

Everyone was so hungry that they stuffed some chocolate into their mouths and relied on the weak heat to give them a boost of energy. Although it was still a low temperature of minus 20, everyone did not feel cold, and everyone was sweating profusely and panting.

The guide Jin Wei was the most difficult one, but fortunately he was very clear about the situation in the mountains and the direction he was traveling, and although the visibility was already very low, he still led the two horses to guide everyone in the right direction. He wouldn't have done such a thing if it weren't for the money to go to a very dangerous destination in such bad weather. In Sandaohezi, the best guide is his brother Jin Tai, who has also been a guide with Jin Tai several times, and the scientific expedition team in Beijing was led by their brother. That time, only those few people were brought to the mountain pass of Toad Mountain, and a week later, only one of those five people walked out of the mountain, and he was already seriously insane.

When Brother Qiang found Jin Wei, he was reluctant to accept this single job, and what made him unable to refuse was that Brother Qiang directly gave the ordinary guide ten times the price, and paid him five days' salary in advance before he was willing to take this single job. When he saw the spirit of this team of 20 people in the early hours of this morning, he felt that this was not an ordinary expedition team, none of these people were like ordinary people, and their weapons and equipment were too sophisticated, so he always had a sense of foreboding.

This ridge is a peak that stands in front of Toad Mountain, the mountain is so long that it is impossible to bypass it at all, and crossing the top of the mountain is the only way out. At this time, Jin Wei's guide had already led everyone to the top, and Ma Qian, Huaxiong, Guo Sheng, Huaxin, and a young man named Huang Yong from the vanguard team had already reached the top of the mountain, where the wind was strong and it was difficult for everyone's eyes to open.

After waiting for nearly fifteen minutes, basically all the personnel followed. Guo Sheng, Huang Yong and Brother Qiang counted the number of people, and there were no people left behind, and then began to descend the mountain.

Although it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, it does not take much physical strength to go down the mountain, and it is inevitable to climb with a roll. More than half of the team has served as soldiers, and there is no doubt about their cross-country ability, but there are not many opportunities to climb such a wooded mountain in such extreme weather. Fortunately, there are many trees, Changbai Mountain, a rich tree species, offset a lot of unnecessary injuries, occasionally someone slips, will be blocked by a tree or scratched to a tree more than ten meters below, basically will not be injured.

Many people think it's fun, and the speed of going down the mountain is much faster. Jin Wei didn't stop everyone's recklessness, he was very familiar with this road, and there was no danger in the direction he chose to go down the mountain, and there were basically no cliffs and deep valleys, so he let this group go down the mountain according to their own interests, just reminding everyone not to sprain their ankles.

It took two and a half hours to climb the mountain and just over forty minutes to descend the mountain. At five o'clock in the afternoon, after the sky was completely dark, a group of 21 people and two horses arrived at the foot of Toad Mountain.

Everyone turned on the flashlight to see the true face of this legendary toad mountain, because it is located at the bottom of the mountain, the sky is full of snow, and it is gray everywhere, and it is impossible to see what the mountain is like, only a large cliff nearby.

Everyone chose to camp under the cliff. Brother Qiang quickly arranged for everyone to set up ten tents under the snow, and lit the alcohol stove to boil water for everyone, and everyone's enthusiasm was ignited again. Zhao Baixiong and four or five young people were so tired that they all put down their luggage and guns and lay down on the snow, the thick snow wrapping their bodies like a thick duvet.

The doctor gave each person a cold-fighting pill for everyone to take before going to bed. Ma Qian did not let his guard down, he said to Jin Wei: "Little Golden Guide, where will we start climbing the mountain tomorrow?" ”

"The place of climbing, there are still six or seven kilometers away from here, you need to turn this mountain pass, the place where we are camping now is the northernmost valley, where there are often wild boar herds, wild boars are very dangerous in winter, if you enter the mountains in this valley will definitely meet wild boars, if we meet the pig king, we will be wiped out."
