After everyone finished lunch, they drove off again.
Unexpectedly, just a few minutes after starting, a big tree fell in the middle of the road at a corner.
"I'll get out of the car and collect it." After Chen Yuanyuan said that, he moved the car and dumped the whole tree into space.
Unexpectedly, within a few steps, another tree fell down ahead.
"Wait a minute." Chen Yuanyuan was about to get out of the car when Liu Feiyang called out to Chen Yuanyuan.
"I looked at the route on the map. It's less than two kilometers away from the hiking trail. How about we start walking here?" Chen Yuanyuan asked.
"I can do it, what about you?" Chen Yuanyuan was afraid of the cold weather, so she tried to save her energy as much as possible.
"Let's take a walk. I'm too full from eating. It's a good idea to get off the car early and walk to eat." Zhang Linlin said.
"Okay, let's go then!" He Yuehua said.
Chen Yuanyuan took out the hiking sticks, and they walked along the mountain road. Fortunately, they just decided to get off the car and walk. There were a lot of rocks and fallen trees in the following section. If they kept getting off the car to clean up, it would consume more time and energy.
It was quite easy at the beginning and many obstacles could be climbed easily. Chen Yuanyuan did not waste any time. Anyway, she took in everything she could encounter along the way.
But as we started to enter the hiking trail, the slopes along the way became a little slippery, and there were more and more debris on the road.
"Let's use climbing ropes to pull a group along. It's safer this way." Chen Yuanyuan said.
"Okay, Yuanyuan, can you go to the front? It's safer for me to stay behind." Liu Feiyang said.
If they share the same rope, the last person is more critical in case of an accident, but Liu Feiyang is afraid that others will not have a good sense of direction.
"Okay, please pay attention for me along the way. If there is a road sign for Bainiaofeng, tell me. I'm afraid it will be blocked by the snow and I won't notice it." Chen Yuanyuan also had this intention, so she walked to the team and pressed the memory of her previous life. Lead the way.
Although the mountain road covered with snow was not easy to walk, it was around two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and the road was close to the mountains and forests, so there was not much cold wind.
After walking for nearly forty-five minutes, the sharp-eyed He Yuehua noticed the Bainiaofeng road sign.
After Chen Yuanyuan determined the location, she told everyone to rest nearby tonight.
"Ah? We've only been gone for a while? Do you want to hurry up again?" Zhang Linlin looked at the time and saw that it was less than four o'clock in the afternoon.
"We will have to walk continuously in the wilderness for at least 8 hours tomorrow to reach the resting point, and it is too dangerous to be in the dense forest after the sun goes down." Chen Yuanyuan said.
"Listen to Yuanyuan, let's rest here for the night." Liu Feiyang said.
Several people found a slightly open place, and after using hiking poles to make sure the ground was stable, Chen Yuanyuan moved the RV out.
"Thank you Yuanyuan for your hard work," He Yuehua said.
"What do you want to eat tonight?" Chen Yuanyuan asked the RV.
"That's fine. How about we grill some fish and rabbit meat? We haven't eaten it for a long time since we moved here." He Yuehua said.
"Okay, then I'll pick up some dead branches and make a fire." Liu Feiyang said.
"I'll go with you." Zhang Linlin said.
Although there are cooking tools on the car, it is still fun to light a fire for a picnic in the wild. The firelight is also convenient for driving away wild animals at night.
Chen Yuanyuan and He Yuehua stayed near the RV, pulled out the awning that came with the RV, and simply arranged it to give it the feeling of RV camping in winter.
Chen Yuanyuan took out the fish and rabbit meat, and He Yuehua hurriedly processed them, otherwise they would freeze immediately.
After Zhang Linlin and Liu Feiyang came back, the four of them lit a fire.
"You must have a good rest tonight, the journey tomorrow will be difficult." Chen Yuanyuan said while taking out the barbecue supplies.
"Okay." Liu Feiyang put the rabbit meat and fish in the barbecue net clip and started grilling.
After Chen Yuanyuan put down the condiments, she went to the RV and adjusted the table position into a single bed. After putting some quilts and pillows away, she went out to have a barbecue with a few people.
Eating outdoors is certainly not as comfortable as indoors, but eating hot roasted rabbit and seafood on a cold day is also a different experience.
After dinner, Chen Yuanyuan put all the food residues into the space, and asked Liu Feiyang to add some firewood to the fire. They returned to the RV and drank hot milk.
There is a double bed and a front bed plus an RV, which can sleep four people.
After setting a time to get up tomorrow, everyone went to bed early and lay down, forcing themselves to close their eyes and rest their minds even if they couldn't fall asleep.
The four of them got up before the sun rose the next day. Chen Yuanyuan took out four portions of pork ribs, polenta and fried dough sticks and soy milk from the space to make breakfast.
Chen Yuanyuan asked He Yuehua to add the spiritual spring water that had been boiled in advance to everyone's thermos. In addition, everyone also fastened carabiners and safety ropes in advance.
After getting ready, the first ray of morning light just appeared in the sky, and we left the RV to continue the rest of the trip.
There was a section of grassy road at the beginning. Although the grass and a layer of snow were nearly as high as Chen Yuanyuan's shoulders, and the shorter Zhang Linlin was even closer to her eyebrows, it was still easier to walk with the tall Liu Feiyang leading the way.
Later, there were gradually various uphill and downhill roads of various sizes, and some sections required the use of climbing ropes to descend the hillside. Although they were all safe, it was quite difficult for those who had not climbed mountains for a long time.
After walking for nearly six hours, everyone's physical strength was gradually exhausted. Seeing that the area was not suitable for rest yet, Chen Yuanyuan asked everyone to grit their teeth and persist until the rest point.
After finally persisting to the rest point, Chen Yuanyuan took out the RV, and the others immediately got in the car to rest, and they were so hungry that they kept protesting.
"Yuanyuan, do you have any disinfectant?" Liu Feiyang asked.
"Are you injured?" Zhang Linlin immediately asked nervously.
"The bowl of my hand is a little worn. I haven't mastered the skills when I first opened the road, so I used inappropriate force." Liu Feiyang took off his gloves and said.
Although the wound was not serious, the blood on the wound had already frozen together with the gloves, and it still looked quite painful.
"Thank you for your hard work. Let me open the way later." Chen Yuanyuan took out the prepared iodophor and gave it to Zhang Linlin to disinfect him.
"I'm fine, I'll just bandage it in a while." Liu Feiyang, as the only male in the team, still wants to shoulder more responsibilities.
"How about I do it? Yuanyuan, you are already very tired from carrying things all the time. You should save more energy." He Yuehua said.
"But this road is difficult to recognize." Chen Yuanyuan said.
Chen Yuanyuan also came to the mountain more than a dozen times before she was familiar with the mountain roads. Liu Feiyang also had a good sense of direction and felt free to let him lead the way first.
"Just walk behind me. The route will follow your guidance." He Yuehua said.
"Help, how long does it take to get there!" Zhang Linlin shouted while lying on the bed.
"We still have to walk for three or four hours. The later ones will be even harder." Chen Yuanyuan sighed helplessly.
It was originally about an eight-hour journey, but now there is too much snow, which also affects the speed of the advance, which is a bit different than expected.
Chen Yuanyuan saw everyone's tired faces, so she took out everyone's favorite food and asked everyone to heal their stomachs first.
