Murong Xiao's knowledge, meticulousness, and the invention and ultimate utilization of various things made the guards, who initially thought she was just a woman of noble status and had no feelings for her at all, feel a sense of admiration for her.
"These are also the difficulties and situations we are likely to face when we reach the top of the snowy mountain. Since I have never been there, I don't know what dangers there are, but I believe that with everyone's strength and as long as we work together, we will definitely complete the mission."
Qian Yeming said, "Did everyone hear what Madam said just now? If you have any questions, please feel free to ask."
Seeing that no one asked any more questions, he felt that Murong Xiao had explained everything in detail, so he continued, "The journey on the snowy mountain is difficult and dangerous. Everyone's belongings should be separated. If someone loses something, there are other teammates who can provide supplies. Once you are ready, we will set off."
The guards who participated in this herb-picking trip were all well-trained elites from the Prince's Mansion. Soon, under Murong Xiao's instruction on how to make good use of space, countless complicated things were put into special mountaineering bags in an orderly manner.
There were originally a lot of things piled on the ground, but with the storage method adopted by Murong Xiao, when they finally set off, everyone actually only carried an extra-large backpack, and held something in their hands that could be used as a crutch, and the crutch could also be folded into several sections and used as ski boots on the snow-capped mountains.
Amid the sighing and envious gazes of other logistics personnel, Qian Yeming, Murong Xiao and a group of 20 people finally began to head towards the summit of Wanling Mountain.
Those who participated in the herb-picking operation were the best of the Prince's Mansion. They were all highly skilled in martial arts and agile. Although the team set out in the afternoon and had to climb the mountain with heavy loads, they had already climbed to the 1,000-foot mountainside when they set up camp at night.
Although I don't know whether the temperature has dropped by 18 degrees as Murong Xiao said, the scorching heat on the 1,000-zhang mountainside is no longer as severe as it is at the foot of the mountain. Although for most people, such a temperature is enough to wear a coat, for the healthy group, this temperature is very comfortable.
Because the climb wasn't that high, there were many footprints left by climbers up to 1,000 feet. The footprints formed a path, so after the first day, everyone felt very relaxed.
In the evening, Qian Yeming found a place near a water source and set up camp there. In order to save dry food, Murong Xiao ordered everyone to hunt more game and set up a grill to start grilling.
There was still game at 3,000 meters, but above 6,000 meters, it was no longer possible. So she brought only a few seasonings, just enough for tonight.
After a while, the hunting team members lived up to expectations and hunted pheasants, hares, wild ducks, deer, goats and all kinds of game.
The team members responsible for lighting the fire and setting up the grill immediately joined in the work of removing the hair, skinning and gutting the animals.
After washing the food, the team members were about to put it on the grill when Murong Xiao stopped them. Under everyone's astonished gaze, Murong Xiao used a dagger to cut the game meat into pieces, then took out the prepared seasonings and evenly brushed them on the meat before putting everything on the grill.
Then go back and forth between each grill and add seasonings.
Soon, the smaller hares and pheasants began to emit a mouth-watering aroma.
