Twenty minutes... Yao Yao didn't know if God would wait for her for twenty minutes.
But now there's no other way but to listen to the captain.
Jiang Yimei is now exhausted and hungry, suffering from both hunger and cold, and has lost the joy she felt when she first arrived.
However, this is mountain climbing, and it certainly won't be as comfortable and relaxing as it is in a big city.
There are gains and losses; we can't always focus on the negative aspects of things.
Because of her cheerful attitude, she remained silent and persevered throughout the journey.
As the last bodyguard to track Jiang Yimei, Li Si suffered the most.
Now he needs to maintain a certain distance from Jiang Yimei, but also not be left behind.
Once you reach the summit, there's almost no path to follow; any direction could be a path, so you have to be careful with every step.
He thought this was his limit, but when he saw the weather suddenly turn bad, he felt like crying.
He had no mountaineering equipment, let alone a tent. If it rained, he was destined to sleep outdoors tonight, enduring the wind, rain, and cold.
"Oh God! Why are you treating me like this?"
Li Si followed closely behind the mountaineering team while sobbing and pinching his nose.
...
"Splash!"
About five minutes later, a torrential downpour began.
In an instant, the forest transformed into a rainforest, and the hard soil became soft soil.
The grass and fallen leaves on the ground have less friction due to the water, making it easy for people to slip and fall.
Lin Congzhi, who was leading the way, slid more than five times.
Seeing his miserable state, the two bodyguards behind him kindly advised, "Mr. Lin, it's raining so hard. Shouldn't we find somewhere to take shelter?"
Lin Congzhi immediately launched into a scathing rebuke: "What is there to hide in this desolate wilderness? Danger lurks everywhere. Keep going."
"I'll lead the way."
If you take someone's money, you have to solve their problems; otherwise, they'll have plenty of reasons to fire you.
Lin Congzhi's previous gloomy mood vanished instantly: "You finally know what's good for you. Work hard, and you won't be shortchanged."
With Lin Congzhi's words, the two bodyguards felt relieved.
He immediately took the phone from Mr. Lin and led the way.
As they walked, Lin Congzhi made marks.
The weeds were thick and tall, and without tools or markings, it was difficult for them to find their way back.
...
On the other side, the mountaineering team also struggled to keep up with the torrential rain.
They were quick, but fate didn't smile upon them.
The rain was getting heavier, and the mountains and forests were soaked; the men were fine, but the women were in trouble.
Anyway, Jiang Yimei and Yaoyao were now starving and freezing, shivering and unable to stand steadily.
At an altitude of two thousand meters, it gets even colder at night, especially during heavy rain and strong winds.
The rain was like icy water, pounding down relentlessly. If it weren't for the trees blocking most of the rain, the women in the mountaineering team would have been in even worse shape.
The wind was strong and the rain was heavy; the mountain road was slippery, and every step was fraught with deadly danger.
No one dared to walk fast; everyone was proceeding cautiously, taking one step at a time as they climbed upwards.
The only good thing about the rain is that there are fewer mosquitoes, so they no longer have to be bitten or have their blood sucked.
But no one was happy. Some people would rather be bitten by mosquitoes than be battered by wind and rain.
Amidst the wind and rain, and the thunder and lightning, Lin Congzhi grew increasingly anxious about Jiang Yimei's safety.
He kept praying in his heart, praying that Jiang Yimei would reach the top of the mountain safely, and praying that Jiang Yimei had set up a shelter.
Although everyone is being careful, it doesn't mean the danger has disappeared.
