usheng hesitated for a moment before agreeing."Alright, I'll give you 30,000 taels of silver."Fang Jinxiu raised an eyebrow, extending a slender finger and shaking it gently."No, no, no, I'm not talki...On this trip up the mountain, Fang Jinshi felt that her greatest good fortune was hiring someone as skilled as Shen Li. 。Although he became a bit ditzy after the memory loss, it didn't affect his business acumen at all. 。From the moment Fang Jinshi felt she was on the mountain, she had been thinking about how to quietly find Zong Yu's whereabouts without alerting those Umon people. 。She had already devised several plans, even spending a fortune to obtain a map of this mountain range. 。Of course, Liu Yuanwai helped with the map. 。She had carefully considered everything, but never expected that a high-achieving student from the 21st century like her would be unable to understand an ancient mountain map. 。As for Zhao Yi and Zhao Er, they couldn't possibly understand. They only knew a few basic characters; something as sophisticated as a mountain map would be completely foreign to them, even if it were right in front of their eyes. 。Even though she had never given up hope, the amnesiac athlete, Shen Li, pulled her back from the brink of despair with a single sentence. 。"I understand" 。The four people who had already climbed the mountain, three of them were waiting for Shen Li to scout ahead. 。Fang Jinshi only knew the mountain forest where she had gone to collect herbs at that time, but even the entrance to the mountain had changed. It would be difficult to find that patch of forest again if they went up from here. 。I remember that grove of trees was connected to a cliff face, and down below the cliff it seemed there was water. 。Even if we can't find the cliff itself, maybe if we find a piece of the cliff wall or a river or something like that, we could possibly make our way back to the forest where I used to gather medicine. 。If we don't find Zong Yu's trail on this mountain trip, it's also good to leave him more dry rations when we return to the starting point. 。The fear is, he's already crossed paths with those people. 。

Fang Jinshi covered her heart, her brows furrowed tightly. 。My heart suddenly ached slightly a few times. 。She always felt this was an ominous sign, trying desperately to shake off these thoughts while struggling internally, telling herself that Zongyu must be fine. 。After a short while, Shen Li returned after scouting ahead, and to her surprise, he brought good news. 。This piece of cloth, was found on a tree. 。"Fang Jinshi picked it up and nodded excitedly. " 。"Yes, this is Ayu's fabric." 。"It looks like he's been here, we didn't get the wrong place. " 。"Come on, let's keep looking." 。"Shen Li said that there were indeed traces of people in this mountain forest, but they had almost all been covered by snow." 。They couldn't find any leads or trace of the person, so Fang Jinxiu decided to look for that cliff first. 。As for Zongyu, he tracked these people for ten days and finally discovered their purpose in going up the mountain. 。They stopped before a towering cliff, unexpectedly finding a hidden river. After the snowfall, the water level had risen considerably, flowing rapidly and remaining unfrozen. 。These people, seeing the water, relaxed their vigilance and rushed over to drink greedily. 。Zong Yu could only endure the hunger and thirst, continuing to remain hidden. 。It's strange to say, but he used to get lost in the mountains while hunting. He would be trapped there unable to leave, running out of food and water. It wasn't uncommon for him to go hungry for days. 。At that time, I didn't think it was very hard. 。Even after only a day of hunger, I feel an intense discomfort. 。Although Zongyu only grumbled about it in his heart, he would never turn back and leave as long as these people didn't leave the Daxixi realm. 。Then he scooped up a handful of snow and chewed it greedily. His mouth went numb from the cold, and as ice chips slid down his throat, his whole body shivered. 。A pair of eyes like hawks, staring intently at their target without any slack. 。Those people standing at the foot of the mountain suddenly untied the long bundle on their backs. 。Zongyu had always thought they were carrying provisions, but when he opened the bag, it was filled with tools for excavating the mountain wall. 。What is hidden in this mountain It's worth the risk for the people of Wumeng to sneak into another country, risking everything to find it, even bringing their own tools. 。at the imperial army only had 70,000 men."Seventy thousand troops against hundreds of thousands What's the difference between that and hitting a rock with an egg""You shouldn't have agreed to take on...
