Hearing Deng Shangwei's question, he smiled and said, "Of course, these boots are made of bear skin, so they are the thickest."

"Bear skin? No wonder!" Deng Shangwei shouted, "Master Ye, you're really willing to give it away!"

"Hey, do you think I'm the kind of person who would spend that kind of money? It's my daughter who bought it for me because she was worried that I'd be cold."

Although he said this, Boss Ye's mouth was almost stretched to his ears.

Although they have been together for such a long time, Deng Shangwei has long been accustomed to Boss Ye's behavior of showing off his daughter from time to time.

But today, he was still fooled by Boss Ye.

"Alright, alright, I know you have a sweet little girl." Deng Shangwei was very jealous. "After I get my share of the money this time, I'm going to find a wife and have her give birth to a daughter for me!"

Boss Ye chuckled when he heard this, and carefully put away the cotton boots he had been wearing. He pretended to be casual and said, "Actually, it's not just leather boots, this pair of cotton boots was also bought for me by my daughter."

Deng Shangwei was so angry that he punched Boss Ye on the shoulder.

"That's enough. If you keep going like this, when we return to the capital, everyone will want to come to your house and snatch your daughter away."

When the people in front heard this, they couldn't help laughing and said, "Deng Shangwei, why would a bachelor like you take someone's girl home?

"For those of us who have sons, I wonder if we can have the blessing of becoming in-laws with Master Ye."

"Oh, you still despise me for being a bachelor." Deng Shangwei said, "You are even more delusional. Be careful that Ye Zhuangshi will beat you up."

When the man heard that Boss Ye didn't reply, he knew that his joke had gone a bit too far, so he immediately became tactful and stopped talking.

After everyone changed their shoes and put on more clothes, the team continued to go down the mountain.

The weather is not particularly cold at this time and it hasn't frozen yet.

So when it first started snowing, the snowflakes that fell on the ground melted quickly.

But as the snow fell heavier, the snow on the ground became thicker and thicker, and the temperature gradually dropped, and it stopped melting.

But the initial melting snow had made the mountain road a little wet and muddy. As the snow accumulated, ice began to form underneath, and you had to be extremely careful when walking on it, otherwise you would easily slip.

Fortunately, Boss Ye was quite experienced in this. He had asked someone to make more than a dozen pairs of foot straps and tied them to the soles of his shoes with leather. Every time he walked, the nails on them would dig into the ground, so he would not slip.

Boss Cheng didn't understand the significance of this thing at first, but the guide, Old Chen, praised Boss Ye for his experience when he saw it for the first time.

It really came in handy at this time.

In this way, although everyone walks a little slowly, at least safety can be guaranteed to the greatest extent.

But although humans have feet to use, mules do not.

As they were walking, a mule behind suddenly slipped and fell to the ground.

The rope suddenly broke, and the bag on the mule's back fell to the ground and rolled down the hillside.

When Boss Ye saw it, his eyes turned red. That bag was the Ganoderma lucidum he picked for Qingtian.

Without thinking, he rushed forward and grabbed the bag that was rolling down, but he could not control his falling momentum and rolled down the hillside.

Boss Ye could only try to curl up his body, holding the bag with one hand and protecting his head with the other, and the rest he could only leave to fate.

Fortunately, there was a thick layer of snow on the ground at that time, so he did not encounter any obstacles along the way. He rolled directly to the bottom of the slope and stopped only after hitting a tree.

Boss Ye was hit so hard that his internal organs seemed to be displaced, and he was seeing stars in pain.

He could hear the people on the hillside calling out to him, but he couldn't make a sound to respond.

I don’t know how long it took before Boss Ye finally recovered a little.

He first shouted a few times upwards as a response to show that he was still alive.

Then Boss Ye got up dizzy and found that his ankle seemed to be sprained, and it hurt so much when he exerted a little force.

This is really a case of adding insult to injury!

Fortunately, the bag he had been holding in his arms was fine, and he was able to save the Ganoderma lucidum. Otherwise, it would have been a real loss.

Boss Ye was originally planning to think of a way to climb up, but after moving his ankle a little, he found that the injury was quite serious and it would not heal for a while. This way, he could completely give up this idea.

Boss Ye looked around and found that there was a river not far away from him.

At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Fortunately, the tree had blocked him. Otherwise, if he had rolled all the way into the river and came out soaked, he would probably have frozen to death in the mountains.

At this moment, Boss Cheng's voice came from the slope again: "Are you okay? I'll ask someone to lower the rope and pull you up."

"I twisted my foot and I'm afraid I can't climb up." Boss Ye cupped his hands to his mouth and shouted upwards.

"Then what should we do?" Boss Cheng became anxious when he heard this.

At this time, there was a vast expanse of snow all around, and the people on the hillside were a little at a loss, and they all looked at Boss Cheng.

Boss Cheng turned his gaze to the guide, Old Chen.

"Uncle Chen, what do you think we should do?"

Old Chen smacked his lips.

To be honest, if the usual practice was followed, someone like Boss Ye who fell down and was injured would definitely be ruthlessly abandoned by the team and left to fend for himself at the foot of the mountain.

But he has been following this team for two months. Through daily observation and understanding, he feels that although everyone calls them Boss Cheng and Master Ye, both everyone and Boss Cheng himself respect and value Boss Ye more.
