Chapter 441 Keep your word
So Shunzi was very curious. No other tourists would be so anxious and persistent as to insist on going to the Three Sacred Mountains. Although he fainted halfway through, Ling Xiao's condition was definitely that of a tourist.
He would scoop snow into a basin to boil water, and leave some kind of "I was here" mark in the snow. He didn't offer much opinion when the group was talking, and he didn't ask any questions. He was a picky eater, and he spent the whole time talking to another equally good-looking owner. He seemed very natural and relaxed.
He was just too natural. In an unnatural crowd, having such a natural person makes him seem less natural.
"Why do you care about this? We can't say what it's about." Wu Xie's hair stood on end, and his eyes darted around.
Shunzi was not surprised by his reaction at all, and smiled and said, "It's okay, I was just asking casually."
Then he started talking about his years of collecting herbs and working as a guide. The light of his cigarette flickered on and off. He took a deep drag, then sighed and exhaled the smoke, saying, "To be honest, I have never led anyone to the place above Maiden Lake. If it weren't for the Bodhisattva's protection, we would be dead by now. It is truly a miracle that we are all standing here without missing anyone."
"You've never brought anyone up here before? Don't be ridiculous." Wu Xie's hand holding the cigarette trembled slightly. What did it mean that he had never brought anyone up here before? How could someone without experience be a guide? Wu Xie subconsciously dismissed the thought, hoping that Shunzi was just joking.
"No, who would have thought the weather would be like this so close to summer? But don't worry, although I haven't brought anyone up here before, I've been here many times when I was collecting herbs, and I know every area like the back of my hand. Nothing will happen," Shunzi said.
Seeing that he wasn't joking, Wu Xie gritted his teeth inwardly: "You brought us here even though it was so dangerous, are you that short of money?"
Shunzi paused for a moment upon hearing this, and said in a rather unnatural tone, "Money... is a reason, but it can't be the whole story... My father has been missing for ten years now. He also came with a group of people, and the route he took was similar to yours. In my memory, the group of tourists who were looking for him back then looked a lot like you, and they were also determined to go up the mountain."
So I wanted to come with you to see what was going on. I don't want you to die here too. I also want to know what happened to my father back then that prevented him from coming down the mountain.
After saying that, he smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe he just got caught in an avalanche, maybe I'll never be able to find his body and bury him."
He then realized he had said too much, scratched his hat, and said, "You can't laugh at me. Don't tell anyone about this, or they might overthink it."
Wu Xie shook his head, saying no, then secretly glanced at Ling Xiao, thinking to himself: 'If Fatty finds out this is your first time leading a team, he'll definitely beat you to death. You might end up being the first cold dish on this snow mountain...'
But then again, what's the meaning of this identical attire and the same determination to climb the mountain? Could it be that a group of people went to the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds ten years ago? It can't be that much of a coincidence, can it? It's unlikely. Changbai Mountain is so vast; Shunzi mentioned an avalanche, so it must have been winter then. Perhaps Shunzi's father perished in an accident.
"Oh, so many people? Then there's no need to change shifts. Blind Man, go back and get some more sleep." Black Bear's voice came out, but the group couldn't see him at all; he probably hadn't even come out.
"Switch shifts, switch shifts." Cheng Yu went to pull Hei Xiazi away.
Wu Xie nudged Ling Xiao with his shoulder, indicating whether he wanted to go in. Ling Xiao waved him off first, then pointed to himself and said, "Let me relieve myself."
Wu Xie admired his commitment to keeping his word, gave him a thumbs up, threw away his cigarette butt, and went back to sleep.
