The wind and snow outside finally died down. Xu Xuening, Xie Yan and others looked at the original team and found that they were ready to go.
"Hey, you still want to run in there?" Chen Sheng looked at these people. They didn't even have enough dry food, yet they still wanted to run into the deep mountains. Are they really looking for treasure?
Everyone knows that there are treasures in the mountains.
Even if it weren't the end of the world, the mountains, especially those with dense vegetation, must be hiding many rare treasures. Digging for those treasures in the mountains in the past would have been hard enough, let alone now.
Chen Sheng looked at the forest outside. After a night of heavy snow, the snow was almost a man high. This much snow was the worst he had ever seen. If they walked in such thick snow, they might not be able to walk anymore. But these people were not afraid of death and continued to walk towards it.
"Yes. We have to go." The new team leader was the man who had spoken to Xie Yan earlier. He was a retired soldier who had enjoyed traveling the world since leaving the army. This time, he had come to Huacheng to visit his old comrades. He happened to encounter a zombie attack. When he wanted to return to his hometown, he found that everything had changed. Duan Changsheng stayed in Huacheng and luckily survived thanks to his skills.
"I always thought that everyone outside might be dead, but looking at you, I think your officer Wei is right. As long as the country exists, this disaster will eventually subside." Duan Changsheng nodded and thanked Xie Yan, smiling, "Boss Xie, if you want to enter Huacheng, you can go through the west gate. Although it's farther away, there are fewer people and fewer robberies. If there's a guy with a black face and a star on his forehead guarding the gate, you can tell him my name."
"Thank you." Xie Yan looked at Duan Changsheng and nodded.
"No need. We may have to look up to you when you stay in Huacheng in the future. Giving you a favor is also giving ourselves a favor." Duan Changsheng said with a smile, not hiding his intentions at all.
Xie Yan and others did not care about this kind of smart person. Everyone knew Duan Changsheng's intention.
"Goodbye."
"goodbye."
…
Xu Xuening watched them walk into the mountains, then looked at Wei Zizhou, "Didn't you say there were treasures there? Why aren't you going over there?"
Originally, they were heading in the same direction as the other team. If nothing unexpected happened, they should have gone together to search for the treasure in the mountain.
Xu Xuening was surprised to hear that Wei Zizhou gave up the idea of treasure hunting so quickly.
Wei Zizhou shook his head, "That thing disappeared yesterday."
"How do you know?" Xu Xuening looked at Wei Zizhou curiously. She couldn't tell whether she was convinced or just guessing.
After hearing this, Han Xiaoxiao blinked and looked at him, "Brother Wei, do you have any special abilities?"
Wei Zizhou ignored Han Xiaoxiao and didn't explain. "I can't explain it clearly. Anyway, that urgent, precious feeling has disappeared. I can only feel that there is danger over there."
"So, Duan Changsheng and Jiang Liang are in danger?" Xu Xuening looked at Wei Zizhou in surprise. "Are they reliable?"
Wei Zizhou nodded. "It's hard to say. After all, I haven't been there to take a look. I'm judging based on my feelings, so I'd say it's about half and half."
"What should we do? Should we remind them?" Xu Xuening looked in the opposite direction with some worry. There was a row of footprints going in the opposite direction.
"No need. I've already told Jiang Liang and the others. Duan Changsheng and Jiang Liang both want to continue. From their tone, it seems they are determined to find the treasure." Wei Zizhou explained.
"What kind of treasure is this? They're willing to sacrifice their lives for it!" Xu Xuening looked over there in amazement. Snow, more than a meter high, had broken many large trees' branches. Looking out, the mountains and forests were covered in white, with barely a hint of green. The sky and earth seemed to blend together, indistinguishable from one another.
Looking at a high peak in the distance, an ancient pine tree stood proudly atop the vast expanse of white. On the cliff, a shimmering, multicolored icicle clung to the wall. It looked as if someone had poured a large glass of water over the peak, and as the cold descended, it had frozen the peak into an icicle.
The entire mountain seemed to be turned into an ice body, and the light shining through the clouds sparkled with colorful lights in the white snow.
"Is it there?" Xie Yan stood in place and looked towards the mountain.
"Yes, there were treasures there before." Wei Zizhou looked at the mountain that was frozen into an icicle. He felt a little sorry. With only one day left, they might be able to get there earlier.
"If it's as dangerous as you said, maybe they won't be able to get it back this time. We may have a chance to meet again next time." Xie Yan glanced at the distant mountain, turned around without any nostalgia, and saw that everyone in the team had packed up their things and was waiting for the boss's instructions.
The team that left earlier left some crystal blocks for Xie Yan and his team, perhaps as a thank you gift for the hot pot soup.
…
The thirty-one people heading towards the mountain were struggling forward in the deep snow.
Every step they took was faced with a wall of white snow. Although the snow seemed weightless, in this unfamiliar deep mountain environment, every step they took could be a cliff or a swamp.
