Finally, this time everyone stopped talking, put away their previous contemptuous attitude, and listened carefully to Murong Xiao's subsequent knowledge dissemination.
"I don't know if you've ever been to the coldest areas outside the Northern Wei Dynasty during the coldest season, but I can tell you that when you pass 3,000 feet and head towards 4,000 feet, the extremely cold temperatures there are definitely not something the human body can tolerate."
Seeing Qian Yeming frown, Murong smiled and said, "So I asked you to prepare whale skin and mink fur. These two things are the most cold-resistant furs in the world. In addition, I also asked you to burn colored glass lenses, which are these."
After saying that, Murong Xiao took out a pair of brown glasses from a guard's bag and put them on his eyes.
"This is called a tinted lens. Once we reach the 1,500-foot mountainside, the entire mountain is covered in snow. Do you know why so many people in the frigid regions of the Northern Wei Dynasty suffered from eye diseases and eventually went blind? It's because they saw nothing but snow for so long, over such a large area."
Snow is particularly harmful to the eyes, so if you don't want to go blind before you even get off the mountain, everyone must wear these glasses when you reach the snow. If you accidentally lose them, I've made a few more. If there are no more glasses at the end, you'll have to climb the mountain with your eyes closed.
"Also, our food mainly consists of dried fruits and meats, so please don't waste the silver charcoal we brought with us. Those are for boiling water."
After that, he pointed at the sled on the ground and explained, "Few people go up Wanling Mountain, and there's no established path. The snow must be very deep. If my guess is correct, the snow on the slopes is at least up to your thighs. Where the road is slightly smoother, the snow is definitely higher than a person."
This thing is called a sled, a trolley for walking on the snow. When the time comes, the things will be placed on the sled. And you will wear snow boots. Although they look big and inconvenient now, they are very effective for walking on the snow.
Also, when you reach 2,000 feet, everyone must form groups of four and use this ring to tie themselves and their teammates together. It is common to fall on the snowy mountains, so everyone must walk carefully and help each other.
Finally, are you trying to tell me that you all have the skill of Qinggong, and can walk on the snow without leaving any footprints?"
As soon as Murong Xiao finished asking, everyone's heads dropped. Default!
Qingfeng and Jifeng, standing by, rubbed their noses. This was exactly the question they were about to ask. They thought what Murong Xiao said made sense, and they also felt that her preparations were indeed very detailed, so detailed that they were almost worshipful.
But if they had Qinggong, it would be a completely different story. Facing the vast expanse of snow, they might need those brown glasses, but they definitely wouldn't need something as bulky as a sled. Not only would it be heavy, but it would also be useless.
Murong smiled and said, "There's another piece of knowledge I haven't mentioned, but to put it bluntly, no matter how powerful your Qing Gong is, the higher you go, the less able you are to use it. In other words, at a certain altitude, around 2,000 feet, you're just much more agile than an ordinary person. Flying is impossible. Also, don't try to show off your Qing Gong. Even if you do, use it wisely."
Because if you use too much internal force in a place with thin air and extremely low pressure, your lung capacity will increase.
