The two bickered with each other, and with a slight cough, Aunt Xiang walked in, looked at the two red-faced men and women with thick necks, and said angrily and funny: "I said, you two can
Can’t you calm down for a while? What time has it been and you’re still arguing?”
With that said, Aunt Xiang handed the gauze in her hand to Ning Xiaofan.
Ning Xiaofan did not reach out to take it, but stood up and said: "Let her do it by herself, I can't wait for her." After saying that, he walked out of the rock wall angrily.
"Tch, who cares?" The little goblin pouted her lips at his back, but there was a hint of complexity in her eyes.
"Okay, okay, everyone is angry with you, so I'll do it..." Aunt Xiang sighed softly when she saw Ning Xiaofan leaving, unfolded the gauze and squatted down in front of the little goblin.
After being bandaged properly, Aunt Xiang went out again and returned soon with an extra pair of outer trousers in her hand.
The little fairy took the pants handed over by Aunt Xiang and planned to put them on. As soon as she stood up, she felt dizzy in her head and was a little unsteady on her feet.
Seeing this, Aunt Xiang quickly supported the little goblin's body and said hurriedly: "Miss Lin, what's wrong?"
"A little dizzy..."
"Sit still and let me help you change your pants."
As she said that, Aunt Xiang helped her sit down and helped her get dressed. Finally, Aunt Xiang said with worry in her eyes: "Miss Lin, it seems like you can't leave like this. How about we take a rest here and wait for you?"
Let’s talk later?”
The little goblin glanced outside the rock wall. It was dark outside and the rain had not stopped yet. He gently shook his head and said: "We have been delayed here for a long time. We have to get to the mining base before dark tonight.
Can't delay any longer..."
Aunt Xiang thought for a moment and said, "Well, I'll go tell Lao Wang and let him carry you."
"No, I don't want Lao Wang to carry me on his back..." the little goblin said, with a shy look in her eyes: "Aunt Xiang, you'd better ask that kid to carry...on my back."
Aunt Xiang looked at the little goblin's coy look and laughed in her heart. At the same time, she couldn't help but scolded her: "You, you were quarreling with me just now, do you have the nerve to let me carry you on my back again?"
"What am I embarrassed about? He is my assistant, huh, how dare he not betray me." The little goblin bit her soft lips and said hard.
"Just be tough. Oh, I'll go talk to him. If he is still willing to carry you back later, you should be nicer to others and don't be so cruel."
Aunt Xiang said, shook her head, turned around and walked out of the rock wall.
Not long after, the little goblin heard the sound of footsteps. Following her, she saw Aunt Xiang walking in first. With a quick glance, the boy with a stinking face followed Aunt Xiang.
Ha, the smelly thing is still here
The little goblin was secretly happy, but her pretty face was deliberately turned away, pretending not to see Ning Xiaofan come in...
The cold wind blew against my face, and the rain kept falling with no intention of stopping.
When Ning Xiaofan and his party came out of Longkou, they saw that Fatty and the others, as well as the experts from the expert team, did not go ahead, but were hiding from the rain in twos and threes under the leafy trees.
A lot of time had passed. When everyone saw Ning Xiaofan and others coming out, they packed up their backpacks and continued moving forward under the guidance of the guide.
The ground was extremely muddy, and it was extremely difficult to walk with one foot deep and one foot shallow. It was even more difficult for Ning Xiaofan to walk with the little goblin on his back, so he could only follow the team at the back.
With such a burden, Ning Xiaofan felt quite helpless. The little goblin asked him to carry it. If he didn't want to, the little goblin wouldn't leave.
The little goblin can be willful, but Ning Xiaofan cannot. Otherwise, the entire team will be dragged down.
This is also the character of the little goblin who is sure of Ning Xiaofan, knowing that he will not give up this prospecting trip easily, and also knows that he will not affect the overall situation because of the unhappiness between the two.
The little goblin achieved his goal and did not make any small moves. He lay obediently on his back, looking quite honest.
Perhaps because of the strong venom of the Cockscomb Snake, even after taking drugs and applying medicine, the little goblin looked very weak and drowsy. After a while, his little face rested on Ning Xiaofan's shoulder and fell asleep.
After a difficult trek, everyone arrived at the temporary camp where they rested on the way more than an hour later than originally planned.
Most of the day passed, and the rain still didn't stop. It was obviously unrealistic to cook rice in the pot, so lunch could only be dealt with simply.
Ning Xiaofan and Aunt Xiang found a rock nest. There was a large leafy tree outside the rock nest, which could somewhat withstand the wind and rain. The inside of the rock nest was relatively dry.
After Aunt Xiang laid the moisture-proof mat, Ning Xiaofan put the little fairy down from his back, then placed her body on the moisture-proof mat and lay down flat.
The little fairy was still in a drowsy state at the moment, showing no signs of waking up. Not only that, there was an abnormal flush on her face and her forehead was hot, obviously she was suffering from a fever.
The little goblin had been eroded by snake venom, so her resistance was naturally weak. Ning Xiaofan knew some common sense about being bitten by a poisonous snake, so he was not very worried. He found a towel, soaked it in cold water and put it on the little goblin's forehead, and then
After taking two antipyretic pills, the little demon's fever gradually subsided not long after.
Ning Xiaofan was busy helping the little goblin reduce her fever, and Aunt Xiang was not idle either. She ordered Lao Wang and Xiao Shanzi to cut down some old vines, made a simple stretcher, and arranged for Lao Wang and the other two people to go there.
Two local employees took turns carrying the goblin for the rest of the journey.
After lunch, everyone took a short rest, then packed up and continued on their way.
Passing through a lush old forest, the terrain gets higher and higher, and a large mountain lies in front of you.
The mountain is not high, with an altitude of just over 1,000, but the mountain is long and the mountain road is steep. In addition, the rain has not stopped, and the road is muddy and slippery, making the journey more and more difficult.
We followed the winding mountain road up, over mountains and ridges, and passed two hills in succession. In the afternoon, the mountains eased, and everyone came to a mountain ridge.
This mountain ridge is wide and flat, and it is also the easiest part of the road to walk today.
However, the mountains are continuous, and the end of the mountain ridge is connected to another mountain. The altitude of this mountain is several hundred meters higher, and the winding mountain roads no longer exist.
This mountain ridge is located halfway up the mountain that stretches across the front. There are cloud-shrouded cliffs on the left and right, and at the end in front is a nearly 400-meter-high, knife-like cliff.
Yunwu Terrace
This is the name shown on the map, and it is also the last barrier marked on the map. In other words, as long as you climb over the cliff in front of you, then the journey of hiking through Shennongjia will come to an end.
The base of the mining area is at the foot of the mountain behind the cliff. Even if the cliff in front of you is difficult to climb, and even risking a lot of life, it can't resist everyone's heartfelt joy. After all, as long as you conquer the cliff that lies in front of you,
With this cliff, you no longer have to suffer the sin of trekking through mountains and rivers.
The cliff is approximately 400 meters high, equivalent to a hundred-story building.
After all, there are elevators in the 100-story high-rise building, but this cliff looks rugged and steep. There are only a few knotty pines and cypresses stretching out from the bare cliff, which is extremely dangerous.
If you are a rock climbing expert, you will definitely like to try your skills on this cliff and enjoy the excitement and fun of rock climbing. If you are an ordinary person, you can only look forward to it.
However, since this extremely dangerous cliff was marked on the map, they were naturally prepared. Lao Wang and others immediately began to organize the rock climbing equipment. In addition, the first rock climber also began to make preparations for rock climbing.
Before setting off, the candidate for the rock climbing job was decided, and it was none other than Hou San from the Development Department.
The little fairy identified Hou San as the first person to climb rocks. Obviously, she knew a lot about Hou San's past profession.
When Hou San was in the tomb robbing business, Hou San was originally a pathfinder due to his thin stature and nimbleness. Although he was not a professional rock climber, climbing such cliffs was not a problem for him.
Not a very difficult thing.
Moreover, Hou San did not need to climb with his bare hands. Before that, advance personnel from Xinao Group had already climbed to the top of the cliff from the other end of the cliff, that is, from the base of the mining area, and installed fixed steel cables.
Lifts and other rock climbing equipment.
With the preliminary equipment, Hou San's risk of rock climbing has been reduced to a minimum.
Of course, the protection work that should be done still needs to be done well. Compared with his previous wild roads, now, his personal rock climbing equipment is much more complete, including safety helmet, safety belt, descender, safety iron lock, rock climbing shoes, etc.
Magnesium powder, powder bags, etc. have been replaced with cannons, and they are armed to the teeth.
With a full set of top-notch rock climbing equipment, Hou San climbed to the top in one breath without stopping.
As soon as Hou San got to the top, he took a short rest, then fixed the rope, winch and figure-eight descender he brought with him to the iron rope, and then lowered them down. With the figure-eight descender, he used the winch to stir the connection.
, people below can climb up this cliff with almost no effort.
Four ropes were lowered, and four people went up in groups. It didn't take much time, and everyone successfully climbed to the top of the cliff one by one.
Under the rock wall, only Ning Xiaofan, Aunt Xiang, Little Fairy, and two local employees, including Lao Wang and Da Li, were left.
At this time, the rain was still falling, water flowed down the rock wall, and mud and stones continued to roll down.
Lao Wang's eyes showed anxiety and he said: "Brother Xiao Fan, the rain has not stopped. When they went up just now, a lot of rocks fell down. There may be a danger of collapse. We have to move quickly."
Ning Xiaofan also felt that this cliff was a bit dangerous. Since the little goblin was sleepy and had difficulty moving, in order not to waste everyone's time, he could only put her up last. If not for taking care of the little goblin, he would not have waited until
at last.
At this time, after listening to what Lao Wang said, Ning Xiaofan knew that this place was dangerous and could not delay any longer. He and Aunt Xiang helped the little fairy to the rope, quickly put a helmet on her, fixed it with a safety belt, and put it on her.
After attaching the lock and checking it properly, I pulled the rope a few times to send a signal to the top to rise.
