Daily Life in the Countryside After Being Reborn

Chapter 709: Chapter 71: The Ground Cracks into a Ravine (Part 2)

"Hmm, should we go back to the cabin first and ask about this rift?" Xiao Xian looked ahead; the terrain around the rift seemed to be a small plain, but inexplicably split in the middle, now divided into two sides.

The gully was very deep, with a vast expanse of white below, and cold winds blew up from time to time.

"We should head back," Xiao Xian glanced at the sky, which was already getting gloomy. Just as she was about to leave, the ground began to shake.

"What’s going on?" Xiao Xian felt light on her feet; she had changed her shoes and was already walking unsteadily when this sudden tremor occurred.

The layer of snow beneath her suddenly began to move, blowing snowflakes around, sliding straight into the Snow Gully. It was already too late to stop the sliding motion.

"Give me your hand," Zhou Ziang shouted loudly as he lunged towards Xiao Xian, the snow gully, which was just over a meter wide, had doubled in size.

The snow gathered downward, weighing heavily on Zhou Ziang who had jumped over it, and both of them felt as though thousands of pounds were upon them. The Spiritual Energy in their bodies rebounded instantly, and both rolled into the Snow Gully without agreement.

The White Spirit Mastiff used all four paws; adeptly avoiding the suddenly active Snow Gully with several agile hops and jumps.

Seeing Xiao Xian and Zhou Ziang fall into the Snow Gully, the big dog also became anxious, barking several times nearby.

After doubling in size, the Snow Gully stopped shaking, and the dog’s barking echoed far away.

"There’s some movement ahead, let’s go have a look," a group of people in professional mountain climbing gear appeared on the other side of the Snow Gully. Several men and women, after hearing the dog’s barking, a colorful bird flew up, its sharp beak stabbing at the White Spirit Mastiff.

Seeing the opponent’s ferocity, the White Spirit Mastiff knew it couldn’t overcome it and turned to run towards the cabin.

"Little fierce one, you’re truly ferocious," the ones who emerged on the other side of the Snow Gully were none other than Miss Aisha, Xu Lan Ya, and others who had also been searching around Changbai Mountain for several days. Huang Tengchong and Yezi were also among the group.

"It seems someone fell into the Snow Gully, a man," Yezi saw a snow boot and looked down the Snow Gully; there was no movement, "Should we go down and have a look?" For some reason, Yezi felt an immediate urge to go down there.

"Don’t be reckless, bring over the altitude detector first," Aisha had learned her lesson. When she first came to the northeast, she thought the snow mountains here were similar to the skiing areas she used to visit on vacation in Switzerland. But when she arrived at Changbai Mountain, she realized that the undeveloped mountain range was difficult to navigate.

Just take the first day they were searching on the south side of the mountain area, they parked their SUV on the outskirts of the resort, only to find it completely covered with snow the next morning. It took a lot of manpower and resources to dig out the car, only to discover that the engine was frozen and wouldn’t start.

After being modified, the Feng Bird had acquired the ability to detect targets using Spiritual Power. So, even though their car was stuck, Miss Aisha and her team weren’t overly concerned and continued to search leisurely on the south side.

Three days passed, and the Feng Bird hadn’t detected any news about the ginseng spiritual vein. As a result, Miss Aisha’s group began to grow anxious.

They found a local ginseng collector and after spending some money, the collector said that the south side of Changbai Mountain, due to excessive harvesting, had virtually no traces of wild ginseng left.

Xu Lan Ya wasn’t there to look for wild ginseng; what she wanted was the much more precious ginseng spiritual vein, which could directly help with her cultivation.

After further inquiries, the ginseng collector mentioned that perhaps on the North Korean side, which is the north side of Changbai Mountain, there might still be some wild ginseng resources. Where the ginseng spiritual vein was located, wild ginseng was more common. According to this information, Xu Lan Ya and others left the comfortable southern resort and headed towards the north side with a group of more than a dozen people.

The southern foothills which were relatively easy to navigate, were a stark contrast once they crossed the mountain top and started descending. The group realized that the terrain on the north side was strangely different; in some places, it was obviously impossible to pass with human strength alone. Both Aisha and Xu Lan Ya were Cultivators, and most of the people they brought with them were also possessed of Abnormal Techniques. They managed to pass through the tricky terrain with some stops along the way.

As for Teng Chong within the group, he was quite disliked. Several times, Xu Lan Ya was tempted to leave him behind.

As for Yezi, to the surprise of Aisha and others, they did not know if he was truly born in the snowy mountains of the northeast, but no matter what kind of dangerous roads or blizzards they encountered, the young man gritted his teeth and persevered.

Moreover, the little plump bird in his arms was equally spirited. Yezi’s performance made Huang Teng Chong extremely jealous, and Xu Lan Ya’s heart sank a few more notches for him.

"Just go down directly, it’s not that hard, isn’t Miss Aisha scared of such a minor height," Xu Lan Ya’s cultivation had greatly improved today with Ye Heng’s assistance compared to the day of the car race.

She had looked at the map of Changbai Mountain, the highest peak being just over a thousand meters. With their current cultivation, going down directly shouldn’t pose any life-threatening danger.

"Hmph, my people will not go down. If Miss Xu is so confident, you could directly have your lover go down," Aisha glanced at Yezi. Annoyed, yet unable to react, Yezi just stood there, looking down at the Snow Gully that had grown to over two meters wide.

"Let’s wait until the altitude detector is brought over," Xu Lan Ya didn’t want to risk her own people getting into trouble, "Let’s go around this Snow Gully and look ahead. Since someone has fallen down on the north side, there must be a place to land."

Sighing, she continued to hypnotize herself not to look at the subscriptions, but couldn’t help it. Why is my click-through rate not bad, but the subscriptions are even more miserable than usual?
