497、To buy medicine

Qingchen already understood that even if he left Takayama Hida (tuo) at this time, he would not be able to find another place suitable for challenging the ice consolidation.

The only option is to replace the item.

Not many people are qualified to become knights.

There are even fewer places that qualify as locations for life and death challenges.

The ancestors of the knights have accumulated thousands of years of experience in the other world.

If Qingchen is in the other world, he can follow the experience of his predecessors to find a place to challenge.

But he didn't have that chance this time, which forced him to explore the world all over again on his own.

When Qingchen wanted to finish surfing, he had to wait for half a month and changed two sea areas before finally waiting...

It was also very bumpy when Li Shutong completed the ice consolidation.

This master first entered the Snowy Mountains in the southwest and hired a strong man from the Huotang tribe to serve as a guide.

First, we camped for a month at an altitude of 6,200 meters in the Southwest Snow Mountains, allowing our bodies to gradually adapt to the low-oxygen life at the plateau.

Then we headed to an altitude of 7,100 meters to camp overnight.

The final sprint reached the main peak of Southwest Snow Mountain.

He jumped from an altitude of 8,000 meters and completed the ice consolidation challenge in an unparalleled manner at a speed of nearly 180 kilometers per hour.

Li Shutong said that the most difficult thing here is that when entering the 6,200-meter altitude position, every knight must enter a state of reverse breathing to allow the body that has turned off the genetic lock to adapt to the plateau.

The second difficult part is how to prevent the strong man in Huotang from noticing that he has become an ordinary person at an altitude of 6,200 meters.

You need to adapt to the plateau in advance because if you reach the peak and start the challenge before using reverse breathing, altitude sickness will occur instantly, your brain will slow down, and all kinds of altitude sickness will come to your doorstep.

For Li Shutong, this challenge was more difficult because he climbed the main peak as an ordinary person. After jumping off the main peak, all he needed was courage.

Qingchen could actually look for such snow-capped mountains, such as Mount Everest.

The snow there is extremely solid, and the north slope is steep but not a cliff, making it just right for skiing.

But the problem is that he is unable to climb Mount Everest and all mountains with similar altitudes to Mount Everest during this season.

You know, so many people climb Mount Everest throughout the year, but that’s all after May.

Even the local Sherpas would not seek death by climbing Mount Everest in winter!

Summer is the time when the temperature is the highest throughout the year, and the probability of ice storms on Mount Everest will also be reduced.

Even so, anyone trying to climb to the summit must always pay attention to the weather, set out when the weather is best, and leave before the ice storm approaches.

Therefore, ice consolidation will have to wait, and it will take several months before the most suitable opportunity comes.

But Qingchen was not discouraged. Instead, he was extremely excited because he had a new idea.

At this moment.

Qingchen lay in the powdery snow and looked at the scattered ridges on the distant mountains.

With just a little calculation, we can figure out... If the main peak on the opposite side is 3,190 meters above sea level, then there will be a drop of nearly 1,900 meters in the valley between it and the peak of Mount Kuzawa.

The curves scattered across the ridge were particularly beautiful in Qingchen's eyes.

The blade formed by the power of nature is as sharp as splitting the sky in two.

This is where he will complete the 'Emergence of Power'.

Like a fool, Qingchen grabbed a handful of powdered snow and smeared it on his face, then lay still in the pit.

Enjoy the joy of twists and turns.

At this time, if any professional ridge riding downhill athletes see this ridge, they will be intimidated.

First, the ridge has too many twists and turns and is too narrow.

The cross-section of the ridge is at most 0.4 meters, which means that if you turn even slightly in the wrong direction, you will ride directly into the abyss.

Secondly, the gap is too large, which means that the speed cannot be controlled.

During downhill descent, you cannot brake casually. If you apply the brakes even slightly, it is very likely that the car will overturn directly.

The huge inertia will cause the rear of the car to tilt up, and then overturn both the person and the car.

But Qingchen no longer cares.

How could a knight's life-and-death situation not be accompanied by danger?

Qingchen stood up.

Once you have a new goal, you have to start planning everything again.

There are still 27 days left before the time travel, which is very tight for a life-and-death challenge. He must cherish the time.

Many people in the ski resort saw Qingchen jumping down and falling into the powdery snow.

They laughed. They were still thinking yesterday about what this kid was climbing for, but they didn't expect that he was a novice who wanted to challenge the powder snow on the mountain.

But before they could laugh for long, they found that the young man had already stood up and headed towards the main peak in the distance.

Disappeared in the wind and snow again.

Ridge downhill is not as simple as finding a road and just starting riding.

Qingchen needs to spend the remaining 27 days clearing away the unstable gravel and scattered snow on the entire ridge.

The knight's life and death test is to experience life and death, not to seek death.





In front of the hot spring hotel.

Jinguji Maki was sitting on the wooden steps, wearing a scarf and supporting her chin with her two small hands.

She looked at the big snowman in front of her and giggled from time to time.

She had been sitting here since 7 o'clock until 7:59, when Qingchen came back from outside.

The little girl looked up and saw Qingchen, and quickly stood up and waved: "Onii-chan~!"

Qingchen glanced at her: "Yeah."

Then he walked straight past the little girl.

Jinguji Maki didn't care either. She already understood that this brother from afar had a cold face and a warm heart, and he didn't really hate her.

She took out slippers from the shoe cabinet, placed them neatly on the floor, and said with a smile: "Grandma woke up in the afternoon, and her appetite was better. I made thick egg roast and fried fish for her.

She said it was very delicious. Grandma also said that her illness recovered quickly."

Qingchen glanced at the little girl silently.

It is not a good sign for a patient with advanced lung cancer to suddenly have a better appetite.

No one told the little girl that lung cancer was actually an incurable disease. The doctor hid it from her, even her grandma hid it from her, always saying that the disease just needed more rest.

She took care of her grandma every day, and naively hoped that her grandma would wake up one day and recover.

After entering the house, Qingchen found that the food brought by the little girl today was richer.

In addition to the usual rice, fried fish, thick egg rolls, and miso soup, there is also a slightly burnt roast beef.

Qingchen looked at the roast beef and then at the gloves that the little girl was wearing even when she entered the house: "Take off the gloves."

Jinguji Maki hesitated for a while, but finally took it off. There were burn marks on his right hand, which should have been left when roasting beef.

The little girl lowered her head as if she had done something wrong.

Qingchen: "You..."

The little girl looked up at her brother, thinking that he was going to say something caring.

Qingchen: "Don't burn the beef next time."

Little girl: "...Oh."

Qingchen ate all the food on his own.

Jinguji Maki sat aside and said cautiously: "Onii-chan, I will take a bus to Nakatsugawa City in Gifu Prefecture (xian) tomorrow to buy medicine for my grandma. I promise that I will be back before 7 p.m.

, I won’t delay cooking for you, okay?”

A county in the island country is an area, equivalent to a provincial administrative unit in the country, and Nakatsugawa City is the closest city to Shirakawa-go.

She is the only one who can work in this hot spring hotel. If she leaves, it means that Qingchen may not be able to find a place to eat when he comes back at noon.

Although Qingchen only came back at night every day, it was a bit irresponsible for her to leave suddenly, so the little girl was a little uneasy.

But grandma has been out of medicine for several days. She had no money to buy medicine before, but now that Qingchen has paid the rent in advance, she has to go to Gifu Prefecture Takayama Hospital quickly.

Qingchen glanced at the little girl: "Are you going to Gifu County alone?"

"Yes," Jinguji Maki nodded seriously: "I won't delay Onii-chan's dinner."

What Qingchen was worried about was whether the little girl would get lost and meet someone with evil intentions if she went to Gifu County alone.

What the little girl is worried about is that Qingchen will not agree to her leaving.

"Go," Qingchen said, then got up and went back to his room to prepare for bed.

The door closed and opened again. Qingchen handed the little girl a small bottle of black ointment: "Apply it on your hands."

After saying that, the door closed again.





early morning.

Jinguji Maki got up early as usual. She wanted to make a meal for her grandma and leave it by the bedside. She would put Onii-chan's bedding in the cabinet and then go out.

But the little girl opened the bedroom door and looked at Qingchen with wide eyes: "Onii-chan?! Why are you here!"

In the past, Qingchen would have left before she woke up.

At this time, Qingchen glanced at her: "I happen to have something to do today and I have to go to Gifu County. Quickly pack up and let's take the first Nofei bus."

Jinguji Maki was absent-minded for a few seconds, and then her big eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, Onii-chan, please wait for me for a moment, I will leave some food for grandma and then set off."

While the little girl was busy, Qingchen searched for stores selling mountain bikes in Gifu County on his mobile phone.

After changing to a new level of life and death, of course you need to prepare new equipment.

It doesn’t have to be a hassle, just a sturdy mountain bike.

He could have sent it directly to Si Nianhua, but now even Si Nianhua didn't know his whereabouts or what he wanted to do in the island country.

In line with the principle of not exposing his whereabouts, Qingchen thought it would be safer to buy it himself.

It's not that he doesn't trust Si Nianhua.

Qingchen felt that Si Nianhua was probably not a person from the outside world. In every time walker controlled by a consortium, there would be some people who used neuron connection technology to reversely seize the body. These people are the leaders of the outside world.

.

All financial groups do this, and the Qing family should be no exception.

He trusted that Si Nianhua would resolutely carry out the shadow's orders, but if anyone on Si Nianhua's side was exposed and targeted by the gods, it would become a hidden danger.

Before completing the life and death test, he didn't want to expose his whereabouts because of such a trivial matter.

Half an hour later, the two got on the first Nohi bus. Jinguji Maki sat on the left side of the last row, and Qingchen sat on the right side of the last row. The two of them seemed like strangers who did not know each other.

Everyone keeps their distance.

Jinguji Maki didn't know why Qingchen did this, but it was a very happy thing for someone to accompany her to Gifu County.



There will be another chapter later. I have finished writing it, but I need to revise it. Wait a moment.
