Chapter 176: Climbing Snow Mountain

The cell phone in the backpack rang, and Jin Guoer crawled over and found out that it was Jin Wushuang who came.

Taking a deep breath, Jin Guoer adjusted her mood and answered the phone.

Jin Wushuang's anxious voice came from the other end of the microphone, "Guo'er, what happened? I didn't answer the phone after making so many calls. I'm so worried."

"Sister, I'm fine. I drank with the farm owner last night. I accidentally drank too much, so I didn't hear the phone." Jin Guoer lied guiltily.

"You kid, what alcohol should you drink when you go out? What if something happens?" Hearing that Jin Guoer is fine, Jin Wushuang started to mutter again.

If it were normal, Jin Guoer would have looked impatient and wanted to make excuses to hang up the phone quickly. But at this moment, Jin Guoer felt warm in her heart as she listened to her sister's nagging.

"Do you want Fengjiu to go?" Jin Wushuang asked.

"No need, I can handle it myself. I have found a supplier and have been negotiating cooperation these two days."

Jin Guoer originally wanted Bai Fengjiu to come, but when she thought that she would be able to do the work alone, she stubbornly refused.

Jin Wushuang had no choice but to tell her not to play around and come back quickly after finishing her work.

After hanging up the phone, Jin Guoer let out a breath, and the skin on her limbs began to itch again.

The He family's unique frostbite medicine is still very effective. I applied it myself and it stopped itchy in a short while. By noon, my limbs gradually faded. After applying it a few times, it was no big deal.

The next morning, Jin Guoer was still sleeping and was awakened by the noisy sounds outside.

After all, Jin Guoer is young and has recovered quickly. She has eaten and drunk enough to sleep. She is already full and has become full.

Jin Guoer's down jacket was torn to pieces by the wolves. Old Mrs. He prepared a sheepskin coat for her. Jin Guoer clumsyly put it on and took out the curtains and saw that more than a dozen strong men had gathered in the courtyard.

These men were wearing dog-skin hats and sheepskin coats, with cowhide straps at their waists, copper-head belts shining in the sun, long boots on their feet, leather leggings tied with dark skin, and their eyebrows were filled with the tough atmosphere of mountain people.

He Sanzhi sat on the millstone in the yard. When he saw everyone coming, he knocked the ashes from the tobacco pipe and inserted them around his waist.

This cigarette pipe is his father's personal belonging and a symbol of the identity of the Medicine King. He Yuanliang was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and his son is now fully responsible for the agent.

"Brothers!" He Sanzhi spoke with a breath, and his voice was loud and loud, "My father's life is in danger. Now he needs to go up the mountain to find medicine. Yesterday, a blizzard buried the mountain road. Now it is very dangerous to go up. I have a wife and children at home and are taken care of by parents. If I don't want to go, I will not force myself. If I want to go, I, He Sanzhi, thank you brothers here!"

After saying that, He Sanzhi bowed and bowed to more than a dozen men.

"Should you say what you said. We are always taking us with great care. Now we need us, brothers are unruly!" said a sturdy man.

"Stop talking about it, you will treat us brothers as outsiders. As long as you say a word, let alone going up the snow mountain, you will not frown even if you go up the knife mountain or down the oil pan!" said a tall and thin man.

More than a dozen men spoke and expressed their opinions. He Sanzhi gritted his teeth and nodded, "Thank you brothers, I won't say anything fancy words anymore. When I find the medicine, I'll invite my brothers to drink and eat meat, so I can do it!"

"Okay!" More than a dozen men shouted with real arms.

Due to a blizzard, the road leading to Changbai Mountain has been buried. The road is dangerous and difficult. To go up to find medicine, you must make complete preparations.

These men grew up at the foot of the mountain and were very familiar with this environment. They knew what to prepare for up the mountain without He Sanzhi explaining.

He Sanzhi asked everyone to go home to prepare for the explanation. After all, going up the mountain this time is no different from fighting for life. It is unknown who can come back and who stays on the mountain.

Everyone was clear about it, but no one retreated. The Medicine King He Yuanliang treated them well, and this was the time to repay kindness.

Seeing everyone dispersing, Jin Guoer approached He Sanzhi and was about to speak, but was interrupted by his wave of hand.

"I'm not in the mood to talk to you about business now, so you'd better go back. If I'm alive, it's not too late for you to come back."

Jin Guoer said, "I want to go up the mountain with you."

"What?" He Yuanliang raised his eyebrows and looked at Jin Guoer, showing a long-lost smile, a contemptuous smile.

"This is not about going out for a trip. Changbai Mountain covered by blizzard is just a hell. Even our experienced old mountain people dare not go up easily. Don't mess around here!"

"I'm not making a fuss!" Jin Guoer also got angry and said with a stubborn temper, "I've climbed the snow-capped mountains before. Do you know Mount Everest? I've climbed to Camp No. 2, which isn't it more dangerous than Changbai Mountain?"

After hearing this, He Sanzhi's face was still calm. Mount Everest was indeed very dangerous, but compared with Changbai Mountain behind the snow, it was a tiny witch.

Avalanches and severe cold are foreseeable dangers, but there are many unforeseeable crises under heavy snow.

"Don't say it, I said I can't go if I can't go. It will be opened to traffic at noon, so hurry up and go back."

After He Sanzhi finished speaking, he left without looking back, leaving only the angry Jin Guoer.

After lunch, under He Sanzhi's instructions, a man monitored Jin Guoer and got on the bus leading to Jilin City.

When the bus walked away, the taillights could not be seen, the man turned around and went back.

At this moment, He Sanzhi had already set off with more than a dozen men.

With the help of the sled dogs, they pulled their equipment to the foot of Changbai Mountain.

The snow-capped mountains are covered with silver, like a giant dragon lying on the land of China, or like a giant lying down, looking at these ants who are not alive and dead with squinted eyes.

"Set out!" He Sanzhi waved his hand, but his voice was not loud, because he was afraid that his voice would cause an avalanche, which would be fatal.

In order to avoid avalanche, the sled dogs were put in cages on their mouths. Everyone had a copper coin in their mouths and had something like a ski tied on their feet. This was to increase the area of ​​force. There were snow pits everywhere on the mountain. If they fell in, they could not even pull them up.

There was nothing to say all the way. Before dark, He Sanzhi took his brothers to Camp No. 1 on the Snow Mountain.

This is a place to go up the mountain to collect herbs and rest and replenish supplies. Three thatched huts were covered with heavy snow. They cleaned up the snow at the door and then made a fire to cook.

"Shoulder, look over there!" A man approached He Sanzhi and pointed at a small black dot at the foot of the mountain.

He Sanzhi looked sideways and couldn't help but frown.

"Stop, that old girl is chasing you." The man had a faint smile on his face.

He Sanzhi gave him a blank look, "I'm not blind, go feed the dog!"

An hour later, Jin Guoer came to Camp No. 1 panting.

"Don't you let you go back?" He Sanzhi asked with a cold face.

Jin Guoer did get on the bus, but she stopped the bus on the way and ran back. The matter couldn't be done, so she had no shame to go back.

Jin Guoer sat aside and rested casually and said, "It's dark. If you drive me down the mountain, I will go back now. If you encounter any bear and wolf pack on the road, I will serve them as dinner."
