"Onii-chan, what are we doing? Can we go down the mountain..." The little girl was walking on the narrow ridge. She looked to both sides and saw an abyss of thousands of meters to the left and right.
If you accidentally slip on this ridge, you will definitely be shattered to pieces.
"Continue," Qingchen said calmly: "Continue to clean up the gravel."
This is Okuho Takadake, which is still more than ten kilometers away from the ski resort. No tourists will come here at this time. Only Keichen and Jinguji Maki are left in the world.
Qingchen acted as if nothing had happened and continued to clean the gravel on the ridge step by step.
It was only then that the little girl realized what Qingchen was doing when he went out early and came back late every day.
No wonder skiers say they have never seen Qingchen, just because Qingchen doesn’t ski.
However, what Jinguji Maki didn't expect was that Qingchen would actually bring her to the ridge and ask her to clean up the rubble together.
Even if she said she was afraid, Qingchen had no sympathy for her at all.
Qingchen said: "If you want to give up, just tell me and I can send you down. When I come up to clean the gravel every day, you will wait for me on the mountainside."
When Jinguji Maki heard this, he suddenly pursed his lips and continued to bend down to clean the gravel without saying a word.
The wind on the ridge was so fierce and violent that even Qingchen sometimes had trouble keeping steady, let alone an eight-year-old girl.
But what is surprising is that after Qingchen said those words, she never said anything about going down the mountain, she just worked silently.
Even several times she was almost swept down the ridge by the mountain wind, but she just screamed in surprise and then silently found the stone that fixed her body.
At this time, the little girl lowered her head, with transparent tears hanging down from her long eyelashes, and was blown into the valley by a gust of mountain wind.
Qingchen said: "I don't have to force you to stay here with me. Even if you want to go down the mountain, it's normal."
Jinguji Maki suddenly wiped his tears stubbornly: "I'm not afraid!"
The moment she left Shirakawago, she almost thought her life was about to turn to a brighter place.
Who would have thought that in the end, we would face even greater hardships than before.
Even if I worked in a hot spring hotel before, I wouldn't have experienced such dangers at all.
But Jinguji Maki still said nothing.
At this time, Qingchen gradually accelerated his speed of clearing the roadblocks, because he was not sure whether the mysterious business department would find this place, nor was he sure how many people they would bring with them when they came...
Without being able to win over others with virtue, no matter how powerful Qingchen is, he will not be able to defeat hundreds of enemies armed with guns in this kind of ghost place.
A gust of mountain wind blew, Jinguji Maki couldn't stand firm and was almost swept under the cliff.
Just when she thought she was going to die, Qingchen stretched out a hand to grab her collar and lifted her back: "Continue."
"Yeah," the little girl responded.
This innocent little girl not only has similar childhood experiences to Qingchen.
At a certain moment, Qingchen even felt that the other person's personality was somewhat similar to his own.
Not just a "sensible" who doesn't want to be "disliked".
There is also the stubbornness and stubbornness of not wanting to admit defeat when facing difficulties.
While running a hot spring hotel, her grandma fell ill, so she learned to cook and wash clothes.
When clearing the rubble on the ridge, I would never complain even if I was scared to death.
At night, Qingchen carried the little girl down the mountain and hid in the ski resort's tourist service center while the ski resort was off work.
There is no other place to stay in the mountain, and there is no food. Although there are people on duty at the ski resort, fortunately they only stay in their offices and will not come out to patrol easily.
Jinguji Maki whispered: "Onii-chan, there is surveillance."
"It's okay, they can't see us," Qingchen said as if there was no one around.
He knew that at this time, the internal monitoring of the visitor service center must have been locked by the watch world.
It is quite ironic to say that when Qingchen came to Shirakawa Township this time, there was no one he could trust. The only person he could trust was the artificial intelligence that destroyed mankind in the last civilization era in the world.
While the lights of the tourist service center went out, Qingchen took Jinguji Maki into the ski resort store: "Just take whatever you want to eat."
The little girl hesitated and said, "Onii-chan, it's not good to steal things."
Qingchen glanced at her: "Don't worry, I will pay the money when I leave in a few days. I originally planned to get some food from the hot spring hotel, but you burned down the hot spring hotel."
"Oh..." The little girl nodded and carefully took a piece of bread and a bottle of mineral water for herself.
In fact, Qingchen wanted to stop the little girl at that time, but he thought that if she planned to bury her with a fire, he would look a little unimpressive while he cared for some food.
So I didn't stop it.
Seeing that she didn't dare to take more, Qingchen took two more boxes of biscuits from the shelf and stuffed them into her arms: "If you can't eat enough, how can you go up the mountain tomorrow?"
After speaking, he took the little girl to the outdoor equipment area and set up two tents.
In fact, it is a bit risky to spend the night in the tourist information center, because if you leave traces, people will always notice it.
The quantity of goods is wrong and the tent has been tampered with. These may be clues to help the Mysterious Division find them.
But Qingchen is about to face his fourth life-and-death challenge. He is still seriously injured and cannot risk living in the ice and snow. He must stay in good condition before completing the challenge.
Being chased by the Mysterious Business Unit was a consequence he had thought about when he rescued Jinguji Maki.
He was prepared to bear the consequences.
Qingchen was lying alone in the tent, listening to the sound of eating like a mouse next door: "Maki, do you have any strange memories in your memory, such as a more high-tech world?"
"No."
"What did your ancestors do?"
"I heard from my grandma that my grandpa was the mountain chief responsible for the sacrifices at the Shirakawa-go Shrine, and so was my grandpa's grandpa. Originally, my dad wanted to go there after he turned 48, but something happened to him. Because he was working as a guide, a tourist accidentally fell to his death.
As a result, the income of Shirakawa Township has dropped a lot, so the villagers in Shirakawa Township... don't like our family a little bit. It is said that a long time ago, our ancestors were messengers of the gods and mastered the war dances of the gods."
"I see."
Qingchen was thinking about one thing. The surname Jinguji is actually very special. It also plays an important role in the mythological inheritance believed in by Shintoism.
He even felt that the Jinguji clan in Shirakawa Township was able to preside over the temple's sacrifices precisely because they had some kind of inheritance, but it was later lost.
It's like a quasi-prescription.
Until now, Qingchen still doesn't know why Jinguji Maki can directly inherit the breathing technique. If the other party is not a beta player, it must be related to this magical blood inheritance.
…
…
The next day, Qingchen took advantage of the fact that the ski resort had not yet opened, folded up the tent, and took the little girl up the mountain again.
According to his calculations, it would only take a day and a half at most to clear the entire road, and by then, he would be able to conduct complete training.
Jinguji Maki was in a very miserable condition, and her little hands were red and even a little swollen from the cold due to throwing and picking up gravel.
Qingchen asked again: "Do you want to give up?"
"I don't want to," the little girl said calmly.
Qingchen said nothing more.
This little girl is a piece of jade. She is so kind-hearted that she can pass the Qinxin in an instant. There is no doubt that she can become a knight after passing the Qinxin.
But passing the question of heart is only the basis for becoming a knight. That road is too painful, tiring and dangerous. Even if you pass the question of heart, you may not be able to persevere.
Therefore, Qingchen left this choice to the little girl herself.
If she gives up, then Qingchen will help her sneak into the country to avoid the pursuit of the mysterious business unit.
If she doesn't give up, they can continue walking together.
This is a test that Qingchen has experienced, and it is also a test that every knight has experienced, and Jinguji Maki is no exception.

The recent updates are definitely not that powerful. You can wait for half a month before watching.
