More than 300 meters away from the camp, Gao Ji's remains were found.

Aside from a few bloody hairs and rags, not a single bone was found. They dug a pit and buried the bloody hair rags in it, making a simple tomb.

Roe Roe once again staged a great dance.

This time, no one made fun of it anymore, and everyone silently looked at the fish roe singing and dancing on the grave, and their faces showed sadness.

After eating some dry food.

Under the leadership of Sam Weng, everyone continued on the road.

Maybe it was bad luck last night, but today's journey was surprisingly smooth, and there were no accidents in the whole process.

The crowd marched through the mountains.

Zhang Qi no longer remembered how many mountains he had climbed and how many canyons he had crossed, he only knew that this Beibi Mountain was too big, and the terrain inside was also complicated.

In addition, there is a thick fog everywhere in the mountains.

If no one led the way, he was sure that he would get lost in the mountains as soon as he entered them.

"This damn floater!"

Yurobi scolded along the way, and his arms and face were bitten by mosquitoes one by one.

The number of mosquitoes in the mountains is overwhelming, and they are extremely vicious, even if everyone is smeared with insect repellent powder, they still can't get rid of these blood-sucking flying insects.

In addition to mosquitoes, there are even more fearsome blood-sucking leeches, which can jump from grass or even trees to people.

Zhang Qi saw with his own eyes that after a ginseng picker took off his pants, his legs were covered with black leeches that were squirming and sucking blood, and that scene was simply a blessing for people with dense phobia.

"Fortunately, I practiced the gold eating skill."

Zhang Qi secretly rejoiced.

He has cultivated to the iron realm, and he is not afraid of mosquitoes or leeches at all, and he is the only one in the entire team who can be protected from mosquitoes and leeches.

"Sure enough, hard work is king."

Every time he saw Zhang Qi walking in the courtyard among the flying mosquitoes, Yuroe couldn't help but sigh.

In the course of the previous battle with that ghost beast, he discovered that this Zhang Dake brother had cultivated a hard skill, and his realm was not low, and he was able to block the ghost beast's claw attack without being injured.

He's really envious.

It's a pity that the cultivation of hard skills is too hard, and it is not something that ordinary people can bear, and without more than three or five years of hard practice, you can't even enter the door.

This Zhang Dake brother, I don't know how much hardship he endured to refine this copper skin and iron bones.

Yu Roe looked at Zhang Qi's gaze and became a little more eager.

When night falls.

The people immediately stopped their advance, found a cave, and camped for the night.

The good news is that neither the first half of the night nor the second half of the night did not show up.

The bad news is that several people in the team have developed high fevers, vomiting and diarrhea, and even their bodies are constantly swinging......

By the next morning, two men had survived and were buried in the cave.

In less than two days, four people were killed.

And whether it is the ranger Roe Roe or other ginseng pickers, they are all accustomed to it, and they don't think that it is a serious matter to kill a few people at all.

Zhang Qi personally realized that in this world, human life is as cheap as mustard.

After dawn, the crowd continued on their way.

After climbing several hills in a row, Sam Weng, who was responsible for leading the way, stopped and told everyone that there was no need to go any further.

Because the destination has arrived.

Zhang Qi looked up at a mountain peak in front of him, which was a cylindrical peak, like a huge pillar standing on the ground, and this group of ginseng pickers called Tianzhu Peak.

Because of the dense fog, it is impossible to see how high and big this Tianzhu Peak is.

According to Sam Weng, so far, no one has climbed to the top of Tianzhu Peak.

And those incomparably precious northern ginseng grow on the cliff of this Tianzhu Peak, eating and drinking, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth.

Because it's getting late.

The people decided to camp for a night and wait until tomorrow morning to go up the mountain to dig ginseng.

A peaceful night.

On the third night of entering the mountain, there were finally no more dead people.

Early the next morning.

Dozens of ginseng pickers rushed to Tianzhu Peak.

Tianzhu Peak is extremely steep, with cliffs on all sides almost vertical, and it takes not only skill but also courage to climb this peak.

Zhang Qi watched as those pickers took out all kinds of climbing tools, such as ropes, claw hooks, etc., and began to climb this Tianzhu Peak. The northern ginseng at the foot of the mountain has long been excavated, and only the higher you climb, the more chance you have to find the northern ginseng.

In the blink of an eye.

All the ginseng pickers climbed the Tianzhu Peak, and even the lame ginseng Weng joined in regardless of the danger.

Only Zhang Qi and Yu Roe were left at the bottom of the mountain.

Seeing that Zhang Qi was just staring at Tianzhu Peak, but he didn't move, he couldn't help asking, "What are you waiting for?" ”

"I'm looking for a way up the mountain."

Zhang Qi replied.

In his previous life, he played rock climbing for a period of time, and before climbing, he must first find and plan the path of rock climbing, otherwise he is likely to find himself unable to advance or retreat while climbing, which is a taboo in rock climbing.

"Then I'm one step ahead."

Under Zhang Qi's gaze, the fish roe did not use any tools, and with only two hands, he quickly climbed the steep cliff, and his body was more agile than that of an ape, and soon overtook the ginseng pickers, and then disappeared into the mist.

"Master."

After Zhang Qi sighed, he silently took out a bag of lime powder from his body.

I can't get magnesium powder for rock climbing, so I can only replace it with the lime powder I bought.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.

In addition to lime powder, he also used a rope and a few hoop hooks to improvise a set of climbing ropes, which could help him climb more safely and effortlessly.

He also chose the path of rock climbing.

Because the mountain is shrouded in thick fog, it is impossible to find the perfect climbing path, only to take one step at a time.

The first hour.

Zhang Qi climbed no less than 700 meters.

The second hour.

Zhang Qi only climbed less than 300 meters, not because of lack of physical strength, but the higher he went, the more smooth and steep the cliff became, and it was difficult to find a rock point to climb.

In addition, the sudden drop in temperature is also a problem.

The low temperature not only stiffened his body, but also caused a thin layer of ice to form on the cliff wall, making it easy for his hands and feet to slip when he touched it.

Zhang Qi took a few breaths, his whole body was clinging to the cliff like a gecko, and above him was a cliff that was as smooth as a mirror, and there was hardly any crack or rock point on it.

This kind of mirror is a nightmare for all rock climbers.

Under normal circumstances, he would definitely choose to take a detour.

But now he is in a more awkward position, if he chooses to take a detour, he has to climb a long distance first, which will not only delay a lot of time, but also may not find a better path.

"I can only use a trick."

Zhang Qi raised his right hand, made an eagle claw, and slammed into the rock above.

Bang!

On the smooth and hard rock, only a few faint white marks remained.

"Shhh

Zhang Qi took a painful breath.

The skin on his fingers was fine, but the bones of his fingers ached from the violent impact.

The "Gold Eating Gong" he cultivated, the proficiency is only 11%, and he has only cultivated the skin, not his bones.

To put it simply, his bones are not as hard as his skin......

"Pretending to fail!"

Zhang Qi shook his head, honestly took out the short gun, and pierced holes in the rock wall with the sharp tip of the gun.

Then climb up with the help of these small holes.

Half an hour later.

After much hard work, Zhang Qi finally crossed the mirrored cliff with a vertical height of more than 20 meters and climbed onto a rock platform that protruded outwards above it.

After resting on the platform for a while and eating some dry food, Zhang Qi was about to continue climbing when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a pale green plant growing alone in a rock crevice not far away.

But it's not the northern ginseng.
