Snap!

A hailstone the size of a walnut hit an exposed rock and bounced up to a foot high without even breaking.

Snap! Snap!

Occasionally, a few more hailstones fell.

The hailstones took on a charming amber color under the firelight.

Li Daoyuan glanced at it and his expression suddenly changed.

"Sulfur! There is sulfur in the hail.

We must rush on our way immediately. The dust and mist are poisonous and we cannot survive in a bunker without ventilation.

Now follow my command!"

Li Daoyuan cut off the wooden sign indicating the altitude measurement point with one sword, and slapped it vertically in half with his bare hands.

"Jin Zha, you are responsible for carrying your brother, and don't worry about anything else.

Miss Hu, Miss Yin, you are responsible for stabilizing these two wooden boards.

There were four people left, the Xu brothers were in a group, and Tangun and I were in a group.

The two groups took turns dragging the planks with ropes, running with all their strength and burning incense before changing to the next group!"

At the critical moment, it was only an adventurer like Li Daoyuan who had truly traveled all over the world who could be so resourceful.

The logic is not difficult, it is a human-pulled sledge, because there are many cliffs that need to be climbed on the way to the top of Baishan Mountain, so coolies such as dogs and horses cannot be brought up.

Li Daoyuan was able to source local materials and allocate manpower reasonably in a hurry, which would not have been possible without the experience of surviving in dangerous outdoor situations many times.

The Xu brothers were not polite and immediately cupped their fists and said,

"Okay, let's go first!"

Each of them cut off a few dead branches, tied two to the soles of their feet, and held two in their hands.

When the others had finished packing, the two of them slung the rope over their shoulders, stretched out their arms, and started gliding on the snowy field at high speed with the help of two dead branches under their feet like a rowing boat.

This kind of single-person sledge is an essential skill for the scouts of the Baishan tribe.

If the Xu brothers hadn't taken care of the large army, they would have wanted to take this action a long time ago.

The two brothers moved like tigers, and their speed was no less than that of a healthy dog.

The hailstorm was getting thicker and heavier, and the people on the board hugged each other tightly.

In order to stabilize the center of gravity and distance between the two sleds, Hu Caiting and Yin Seke both stepped very low.

The Jin Zha brothers were protected in the middle. Qingyun took off his fur cloak and signaled Li Daoyuan to spread it above his head to protect everyone from the hail and rain.

However, the Xu brothers did not receive such good treatment. In order to move forward at full speed, they used both hands to support the pole and had no time to protect themselves.

Fortunately, Marquis Li reminded them and asked them to put hard objects on their heads and do some basic protection.

But the bruises on his body and legs that were smashed out are countless.

After less than one stick of incense, the two of them couldn't stand it anymore, so the next group took their place.

This kind of single-person sledge is unfamiliar to both Li Daoyuan and Qingyun.

Fortunately, one of them has rich experience and has practiced countless weird techniques all over the world, while the other has excellent martial arts skills, especially his footwork.

With a little adjustment, the two of them can control it skillfully.

Although their speed is not as fast as the Xu brothers, their endurance is much better, and they can run for as long as two or three sticks of incense in one breath.

The huge smoke ball, like Ragnar Nuo's master, has turned into a smoke column soaring into the sky, and the top cannot be seen.

The air was filled with the smell of sulfur, and everyone had to take some necessary filtering measures.

Back when the Bloody Mist Evil Formation was set up in the Five Pecks of Rice Road, a mole-nosed filtering device was used. The current conditions are simple, but it can achieve a similar effect by puncturing the wine bag and stuffing it with mugwort.

But in this case, they are equivalent to burning the boat and risking everything.

Look at the mountain and run to death. Although the dust pillar seems to be right in front of you, it will take a lot of time to really reach the top.

Another piece of hailstone hit Mr. Li's knees. He roared and fell to the ground.

The Xu brothers rushed over to change shifts.

But not long after he left, his brother also collapsed, so he had to be replaced by the Xu family brother and Qingyun to regroup.

The hail and rain were merciless, and the younger brothers of the Xu family were unable to support him for too long.

Hucaiting and Yinse could see that Qingyun's physical strength was also a little exhausted, so they took the initiative to take over.

At this time, Qingyun was not polite to them. He just talked about some operating instructions for a single person's sledge, then retreated to the board to lift the fur for everyone.

When everyone was exhausted and bruised, the snowfield finally came to an end.

There is an obvious depression on the top of the mountain from which smoke and dust spewed out.

The temperature in the center of the smoke is extremely high, as if the field of vision is melted and slightly distorted.

Of course, it is not only the space that is melting, but also rocks and mineral veins from deep within the earth. All kinds of complex rock embers fill the air, emitting a pungent smell that makes it impossible to get any closer.

"Can anyone live near here?"

Qingyun said hesitantly.

"Come with us!"

The Xu brothers limped ahead and led the way.

The fire mouth on the top of the mountain suddenly made another muffled sound, and the entire Dabai Mountain was shaken.

It's probably because the nearby rocks have been baked soft and the foundation is somewhat loose.

This huge earthquake actually caused a large-scale landslide, and the entire mountain suddenly tilted toward the crater.

Brother Xu's leg was already injured, but suddenly his feet went soft and he couldn't stop for a moment. He fell with a thud and rolled towards the center of the crater along with the bones of the sunken mountain.

The younger brother hurriedly rushed forward to catch it, but he almost fell down. If he hadn't been supported by Mr. Li, he would have followed in his brother's footsteps.

Qingyun hurriedly pulled off the rope on the crowbar, yelled "Catch it!" and threw the rope end out.

The long rope was thrown in the air, as if it had violent friction with the air, and even rubbed out thousands of sparks.

The rope at the far end smelled of burning, as if it was about to be ignited.

The Xu family's brother's beard and fur coat also started to catch fire, and he seemed to have been burned, but his last survival instinct made him jump up, grab the long rope, roll with force, and wrap the long rope tightly around himself.

Between life and death, this is the only right choice.

The long rope spread out like decay and turned into dots of fire butterflies, but fortunately, Xu's brother's tumbling body still had some strong rope tendons wrapped around his body.

Sparks gnawed away at the straw rope and Xu's brother's clothes like moths.

Qingyun used both hands to pull out the Xu family brother before the whole longevity tree disintegrated.

Bang, the Xu family brother's body fell heavily to the ground, and was held tightly by Mr. Li and the Xu family brother.

My brother's face was charred, his throat seemed to be smoking, and he couldn't make a sound while shouting.

Mr. Li Hou sighed, "I will support him and my brother will lead the way. Let's get out of here quickly!"

Everyone supported each other and left, with the two girls Hu Caiting and Yin Seke at the end of the team.

The fire mouth was still raging, roaring intermittently.

Hua la la la~

Another large landslide.

Qingyun heard the sound coming from behind and quickly turned to look.

"No!"

As he roared with a lung-breaking roar, Hu Caiting and Yin Seke swayed and slipped one after another.

In a twist of God's will, the two women slipped down in different directions and drifted apart.

Regardless of Qingyun's immense ability, he must make an immediate decision at the critical moment, from the palm of his hand to the back of his hand.

(Hahaha, learn to be a broken dog!)

There are a lot of things to talk about in this section, so let’s take them little by little, hoping to chew them off enough.

At the beginning of this chapter, Du Hui saw an indescribable existence that looked like the god of death. Since this article is a serious historical article, why do we talk about ghosts and gods? It is precisely because of its seriousness that we should have an attitude of awe towards the unknown. The victory over life and death

Fear is the essential question that this short section wants to explore. What exactly did Du Hui see? As a character with an independent ending, we may not get the answer until the novel is completed. By then we will have

Come to an even more bizarre story recorded in an ancient book.

Du Hui, who has appeared in this article so far, also has his prototype. This person's name is Du Wu. See "Taiping Guangji? Tao Shu 2". It is said that Du Hui, the official and the minister, used to go to Changbai Mountain when he was prosperous.

The immortal gave me the medicine to keep my appearance forever. The minister is not a small official, so I will leave it out here and wait until we talk about it later.

Next we have to talk about the Shulu family. As mentioned earlier, they are the Northeast Yi people of the Uighur race. They have the Han surname Xiao, and they are the famous heads of the Xiao family during the Liao Dynasty. This is not the end. The Shulu family of Liao Dynasty
