Chapter 640 Finally seeing the end


Chapter 640 Finally sees the end

The sky is obviously the same as the outside world, but on the snow-capped mountains, it snows all year round, and the sun, moon, and stars are not visible all year round. They can't even grasp the direction, and there is nothing else to tell the direction. They just keep walking forward.

But after walking for twelve days, we still couldn't reach the foot of the mountain.

After passing one hilltop, there was another hilltop waiting for them. It seemed that there were endless hills in front of them.

The only thing they were thankful for was that they found not one Ganoderma lucidum plant, but six Ganoderma lucidum plants, all of which were more than three hundred years old. Xia Zihan was very happy.

This was their biggest gain after going to the snow-capped mountains.

Chu Jingqi looked at the next hilltop and frowned, "We may have gone in the opposite direction."

He remembered that after they went up the mountain, they only passed two small hills before reaching the top of the highest mountain with the Millennium Hanchi. In the past few days, they had passed four small hills, and there were another small hill in front of them.

This was the opposite direction, otherwise, they would have gone down the mountain long ago.

"Then what should we do?" Ma Bao asked, can't we go back?

"Let's turn in one direction. If my guess is correct, the front should be north." Chu Jingqi said, "If we continue to go north, we will most likely reach the legendary Ru country."

Your country is thousands of miles away from Dasheng, because there is a vast snow-capped mountain in the middle. Ru country and Dasheng, the two countries, never communicate with each other, and cannot communicate with each other. The two countries are bridges within bridges. , the way back, the well water does not interfere with the river water.

Chu Jingqi knew about it, but he only saw it accidentally in the history books once. There was not much mention in the history books. It only said that your country was in the north of the snowy mountains. Nothing else was written about it, and he knew very little about it.

"Let's go to the west and pass the border..." Chu Jingqi looked at Xia Zihan, "Qi Mei and Dongfang Yi should be there. According to the distance, they will be almost there in five or six days."

Xia Zihan's eyes lit up, "Then let's go west." She hadn't seen Qi Mei for several years and missed her.

"We can also go see Liao Jingtang and cousin Jing. They are in Mianyang City not far from the border." She said happily.

Chu Jingqi scratched her nose and said dotingly, "Okay, let's go visit Qi Mei and Dongfang Yi first, and then go visit Liao Jingtang and Zeng Jing."

"I still need to buy gems back home. Qi Mei said that you will encounter many rare gems at the western border, and the prices are very cheap." Qi Mei bought all the gems in her Cuiyu Pavilion here.

The reason why Cuiyuxuan has high profits and makes a lot of money is because the purchase price of gems is cheap, the cost is low, and the sales are expensive.

The five people turned in one direction and headed west.

Sure enough, as Chu Jingqi expected, they walked westward along the foot of the hill. Five days later, there was a lot less snow on the mountain, and the rocks protruding from the snow could be vaguely seen.

Shengdi shouted in surprise, "Your Majesty, Princess, look, there are rocks, we are almost at the end."

"Great, this hellish place is finally coming to an end." Ma Bao was so excited that he almost fell into the snow. He steadied himself in time and said with a smile, "Master, let's go on the road overnight, shall we?"


He could get out of the snow-capped mountains as soon as possible so that he could find a place to rest comfortably. He hadn't eaten hot food for a long time.

Moreover, he also missed Nuanyu very much.

I haven’t seen him in almost five or six months.

"Why don't you leave quickly?" Chu Jingqi said with a faint smile.

He blocked Xia Zihan's waist and took the lead in speeding up. Ma Bao, Sheng Di and Chu Cong also raised their internal strength and raised their speed to the highest level.

After walking for another two days, the snow lightened and the snow on the ground became lighter. When they stepped on it, it only covered their calves, and more and more rocks and pine trees were exposed in the snow.

Looking into the distance, they also saw a patch of green, which was a large pine forest at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.

"Oh my god, I finally saw a tree, eh... rabbit?"

With sharp eyes, I saw a big gray rabbit peeking under a pine tree. I was extremely excited, "Oh, it's really a rabbit, it's not small. Ma Bao, hurry up, catch it..."

Ma Bao was closest to the rabbit and he saw it too.

He quickly drew out his sword, waved his hand, and flew towards the rabbit.

"It's better now. There are rabbits to eat. It's great." Shengchi ran over and picked up the rabbit that was shot through the body with a sword.

After throwing the rabbit to Chu Cong, he and Ma Bao happily picked up their swords and went to hunt hares, "Catch a few more and we will have a good meal."

These days, they don't have much food. They eat only one meal a day and have to travel. They all lost a lot of weight when they saw it.

Especially Shengdi Ma Bao. As men and servants, they have to save food for their masters. Therefore, they eat the least and lose weight the fastest. When they rest at night, they dream about themselves. Eat and drink at Juxianglou.

When they woke up in the morning, they were obviously hungry and had to go on the road. In the past few days, they had maintained a lot of perseverance and were able to persist until now.

Now, if a wild boar appears, they can swallow it whole.

With food, they have motivation. They were hungry, tired, and weak just now, but now they are full of energy and looking for hares.

Not to mention, there are many small animals at the foot of the snow-capped mountains. Not only did they catch two hares, they also found a group of takin. However, they only caught one. When they came back, they also saw a lynx, lynx meat. It didn't taste good, so they carried another takin and let the lynx go. When they came back, Chu Cong had already lit a fire with rabbits roasted on it. The fire was made with a thin cotton-padded coat of hers. The weather was not so cold anymore, so she took off the thin cotton-padded coat under her coat yesterday. I picked it up and didn't throw it away. It was just used to make a fire.

Anyway, we were about to leave the snow-capped mountains, so there was no need to wear this thin cotton coat. She had another one underneath, which she probably had to take off when she left the snow-capped mountains.

"Shengdi, Ma Bao, you're back just in time. Look quickly and see if there's anything you don't need. Bring it over and use it as firewood." Chu Cong muttered quickly when he saw them coming.

She didn't dare say anything to her two masters. The master's clothes were too expensive, costing hundreds of taels of silver each. It would be a pity to burn them.

Ma Bao and Shengdi also took off their clothes yesterday. Although their clothes are good, they cost more than ten taels of silver each. It is better than burning the master's clothes.

Ma Bao and Shengdi abandoned the takin and found out the clothes they no longer wore, including cotton coats and cotton trousers, and threw them all to Chu Cang.

"I'll go find some pine branches." We can't just burn the clothes. The clothes are all gone, so what are we burning?

Are you still taking off your clothes?

Ma Bao frowned and found a pile of pine branches. They were not very dry, but not very wet either. Ma Bao grabbed a handful and threw them into the fire, almost extinguishing the fire. Chu Cong quickly took the sword. Jian fiddled with the flame, and the flame ignited.

The pine branches were not burned, and soon after they were thrown in, they turned into a pile of ashes.

Ma Bao looked around and saw that there were no other trees except pine trees.

He found another pile and came over.

Chu Cong, Xia Zihan, and Chu Jingqi were responsible for the barbecue. They cut off several large pieces of takin meat and gave them to Chu Cong. They also went to find pine branches with Ma Bao.

Half an hour later, the five of them finally had a good meal. After eating, Chu Jingqi saw that the fire was still not out, and Chu Jingqi said, "Let's go find some more pine branches, and let's grill some meat and eat on the way."


"I'm going to cut the antelope beef." Shengdi jumped up, took a dagger, cut off more than ten pieces of meat, and piled it next to the fire.

Ma Bao found another pile of pine branches.

Because without burning, this large pile of firewood was not enough and had to be found. Xia Zihan and the other two were responsible for the barbecue.

Roar...

Suddenly, the roar of a snow leopard was heard not far away, followed closely by Ma Bao's scolding, "Beast, if you dare to sneak up on me, I will kill you for meat if I don't."

The roar of the snow leopard came frequently.

Shengdi put down the cut meat, with an excited fighting spirit on his face, "Master, I will go over and take a look."

Seeing Chu Jingqi nodding, he picked up his sword and ran over there.

With the skill of Shengdi and Ma Bao, it didn't take much time to kill the snow leopard, and they came back.

Ma Bao was carrying a snow leopard weighing more than 300 kilograms on his back and said excitedly, "The skin of this snow leopard is really beautiful. I will make you a big cloak. It will definitely be warm and nice to wear."


"Well, that's good."

Glancing at the snow leopard carcass thrown on the ground, Chu Jingqi also liked it very much.

The snow leopard's fur was even and beautiful. He looked at Xia Zihan and said, "I'll make you a small coat and a leather skirt, and also a pair of leather boots."

"I'll make it for you. It's just enough to make a big cloak." Xia Zihan also wanted to leave something good to Chu Jingqi.

Chu Jingqi said, "There are a few white bear skins in the bag, which are not bad. Take them back and process them carefully. You can make me a white bear fur cloak. I like that one. You can make one too. One skin is big enough. Made for both of us.”

Pure white polar bear skin is more beautiful and warmer than snow leopard skin.

It's a pity that they didn't bring many, just seven. Fortunately, each one was big enough, and one piece of leather could make two adult men's cloaks.

Xia Zihan has made the calculations, and the three of them, Chu Cong and Ma Bao, have one piece each. There are four pieces left. One is for her and Chu Jingqi, one is for Chu Yuexi and Princess Qinghui, and the other is for Zhuo and Chu Xuanyu. .

For the last one left, she planned to make a big cloak for each of her father and grandmother.

However, my grandmother is too old to wear a pure white cloak. How about using this snow leopard fur to make her a cloak?

Xia Zihan made an instant decision in her mind and said, "Peel it out first, and then make a big cloak for my grandmother when I get back. She will look very good in snow leopard pattern."

"Well, everything is up to you."

In fact, Chu Jingqi really wanted to make Xia Zihan a cotton-padded jacket, leather skirt and leather boots. She would definitely look very cute in leopard print.

However, since she planned to make it for her grandmother, he would naturally follow her.
