Chapter 575 Breasts Will Grow Bigger, Faces Will Turn Red
"Look, it's snowing!" Li Wuling shouted in delight, immediately capturing everyone's attention. Fog enveloped the mountain peak, and snowflakes as soft as feathers were falling from the sky. They were translucent and sparkled as they gently landed on the mountain's summit. The front of the traveling party was instantly covered in this feathery snowfall, and from a distance, it looked as if they had entered a thick fog.
Although it was already the fifth month and the mainland in Guanzhong was gradually warming up, the mountain surprisingly began to snow. One could see blooming flowers at the mountain's base, snow and red flowers coexisting at its waist, and atop, the landscape was instantly covered in a blanket of snow. With its three distinctive climates, the mountain's magical and extraordinary beauty was indeed not exaggerated.
Little Li was still somewhat childlike. Perhaps spending a long time in the desert made the sight of snow in the fifth month on this mountain especially spectacular to him. He immediately jumped in joy. Gao Qiu laughed, "Just out of the desert and now we encounter auspicious snow. This journey has had it all—wind, frost, rain, snow. From this point on, life holds no regrets."
While the two spoke lightheartedly, Lin Wanrong's brow was deeply furrowed. The mountain snow was beautiful to look at, but for them, travelers about to cross this mountain, it increased the risks considerably.
Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Wanrong clenched his teeth and said, "Brother Hu, tell the men to stay close to each other for mutual support. We won't be camping tonight; we'll cross the mountain overnight."
Hu Bugui, aware of the treacherous path ahead, quickly acknowledged and relayed the command. Following Lin Wanrong's earlier instructions, the soldiers had already gathered dried leaves and vines to make thick raincoats, which were unattractive but very functional, particularly at this moment.
Li Wuling was wearing the warmest clothes. Being young and recently recovered from a serious injury, everyone had secretly stuffed extra clothing into his bag. What he was wearing now was a new garment that Lin Wanrong had specially prepared for him. It was a few sizes too large, but it effectively kept the cold at bay.
As they climbed higher, the snowstorm intensified. The northern wind, mixed with snowflakes, lashed against their faces so harshly that they couldn't even open their eyes. The cheeks stung from both the impact and the cold.
