Start getting stronger by modifying your breathing method

Chapter 310 Mountain Village [Part ]

Foxtail Mountain.

The mountains and forests are full of lush trees, whose branches and leaves stretch out unrestrainedly, crisscrossing each other, and covering the sky layer by layer.

Only a few faint rays of light occasionally struggled to squeeze in through the gaps between the branches and leaves, falling on the ground and forming star-like spots of light.

Perhaps it is because few people have set foot here for many years.

The ground was already covered with thick fallen leaves, and when you stepped on them, they made a rustling sound.

Occasionally, you can see some rotten branches lying in the middle, on which various unknown fungi have grown without knowing when.

The roads in the mountains and forests are rugged and bumpy, making it extremely difficult to walk on them. You have to be careful with every step you take.

now.

Beside a mountain stream, clear spring water is gurgling from the mountain stream.

The water is so clear that you can see the bottom, and it sparkles in the sunlight.

A group of four people were slowly climbing forward along the mountain stream.

The four people were all in their twenties, two men and two women.

"As expected, the air in the unpolluted mountains is still the best!"

The first to speak was a woman in a slim-fitting sportswear that made her proud figure look even more graceful.

At this moment, her face was rosy, just like a ripe apple, it was the unique blush after mountain climbing.

Her big eyes were sparkling with excitement.

Looking at the beautiful scenery of the mountains and forests in front of her, she took a deep breath, and the rise and fall of her chest attracted the attention of the two men beside her.

"Shen Ling, as long as you like it!"

Cao Fei responded with a smile.

He has slightly dark skin and wears a black vest, which shows his smooth muscles and firm arms, giving people a sense of security.

"Yes, but no one has ever set foot here. It is a primitive forest. There may be wild beasts or poisonous snakes. You must pay attention to safety."

Lu Yang on the side nodded slightly and gave a reminder.

He was a little thin, wearing a light grey sportswear, and he exuded a sense of efficiency.

As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something.

He glanced at the girl who was walking at the back of the team and hadn't said a word.

"Luo Xiaomeng, remember to take some photos of the surrounding area. They will be used in the later editing."

Lu Yang gave the task in a calm tone.

"Ok!"

The girl called Luo Xiaomeng responded softly.

She had an ordinary ponytail, freckles dotted her face, and a pair of black-framed glasses on her nose.

With a camera hanging around his neck, he followed silently at the end of the team, taking pictures seriously with the camera in his hand, as if he didn't like to talk much.

The other three people didn't care too much about this, they just chatted and laughed with each other.

From time to time, the two boys' words made Shen Ling laugh. The laughter echoed in the forest, breaking the silence of the forest.

Just then, Shen Ling stepped on a stone.

He made a scissors hand gesture and was about to ask Luo Xiaomeng to take a photo for him.

But when she glanced at it inadvertently, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on her face, as if she had discovered something new.

"Hey, look, there seems to be someone over there."

Shen Ling said.

Hear the words.

Several people looked in the direction of her finger and saw a young man with a black backpack walking towards them quickly from below.
The man walked very quickly, and in just a few steps, he quickly closed the distance between them.

"Isn't it forbidden to let people in here? What's wrong with this person?"

Lu Yang frowned and said with a puzzled look.

Cao Fei on the side also shook his head, equally puzzled.

“Maybe this person is also here to explore like us, and maybe to shoot footage.”

Shen Ling thought about it and guessed.

Seeing the young man getting closer, she rolled her eyes and suggested with a smile.

"Why don't we invite this person to join us? It's always safer with more people."

When Lu Yang and Cao Fei heard this, they couldn't help but frown slightly.

Although they were not very happy about it, they couldn't refuse directly, and they all fell silent for a while.

Seeing the two of them like this, Shen Ling didn't care.

When the young man came closer, she put her hands to her mouth.

It made a trumpet shape and shouted at the man:

"Handsome guy, are you alone? It's fate that we meet here. Do you want to join us?"

"No need, I still like someone!"

The young man, Hu Qi, glanced at a few people indifferently.

Ignore the warning looks from the two men.

"It's not safe here. If you don't want to die, get down the mountain early while it's still daylight!"

After saying this, Hu Qi ignored their reactions and quickly passed them.

He walked on the steep mountain road as if walking on flat ground, and soon disappeared from the sight of several people. Because the other party called him handsome.

He was able to put aside past grudges and give a reminder.

I have done my best.

Whether the other party believes it or not is none of his business.

Adults should be responsible for their own actions.

You have to bear the consequences of your own choices.

He is not a savior, and he does not have the idea of ​​helping others change their wrong decisions.

Perhaps the only thing he could do was to send those who were his enemies to see God. This was one of his few acts of mercy.

"Humph! How ungrateful! If he hadn't run so fast, I would have taught him a lesson."

Lu Yang couldn't help but snorted coldly. In his opinion.

In this deep forest, it is naturally safer if there are more people. But this guy is alone and is not afraid of any unexpected situations.

Moreover, he even dared to curse them!
Cao Fei and Shen Ling listened to what Lu Yang said.

I also echoed a few words.

Only Luo Xiaomeng looked at Hu Qi's back thoughtfully.

Afterwards, the few of them continued along the mountain road and soon forgot about this little episode.

Cao Fei and Lu Yang were still surrounding Shen Ling, talking and laughing along the way.

And Luo Xiaomeng walked at the end.

Just like a tool, he followed behind several people quietly.

However, the three of them did not notice that when they were not paying attention, Luo Xiaomeng, who was walking behind them, occasionally looked at them, and no one knew what she was thinking.

The total height of Foxtail Mountain from the ground is about one kilometer.

If the mountain road is regular, the slope is relatively gentle, and there is not much rest in the middle, it may take two or three hours to reach the summit.

But Foxtail Mountain is a barren mountain that few people have entered for a long time, and the mountain road is rugged and winding.

The road conditions were very complicated, and various poisonous snakes and wild beasts would appear from time to time. The difficulty of climbing was far beyond their expectations.

In addition, several people had to stop every few steps to shoot footage for later editing, so the pace of movement was even slower.

They started at noon and it was almost evening when they had only reached two-thirds of the way, and were still some distance away from the top of the mountain.

As the sun gradually set, the sky became dimmer. Moreover, in the mountains, it gets dark much faster than outside.

In desperation, they could only choose to set up camp on the spot, after all, it was a dark night.

Mountain roads are even more difficult to travel on. If you are not careful, you can easily fall and get injured, which would be troublesome.

The only thing to be thankful for was that they had been moving forward along the mountain stream, so they did not lose their way.

At this moment, several people set up two tents beside the mountain stream, Cao Fei and Lu Yang lived in one, and Shen Ling and Luo Xiaomeng lived in the other.

Afterwards, the group sat on the picnic blanket and began to enjoy the meal that had been prepared in advance.

They had prepared for the possibility of having to stay in the forest for a night and had brought enough food with them so they wouldn't go hungry.

At this moment, Shen Ling beside her suddenly sneezed.

She couldn't help rubbing her arms and said in confusion, "Hiss, why do I feel a little cold all of a sudden?"

The other three people had the same feeling and even shivered slightly, feeling the chill coming from all directions.

"The air circulation in the mountains is relatively good, so the heat can be taken away more easily. In addition, there is no sunlight to replenish the heat, so the temperature will drop faster. Generally speaking, the higher the altitude, the lower the temperature at night."

Luo Xiaomeng, who had hardly spoken a word, adjusted his black-framed glasses and spoke.

"Besides, we happen to be staying next to a mountain stream. There is a lot of water vapor here, which increases the humidity of the air, making people feel damper and colder, and the chill is more obvious. This is normal."

After she finished speaking.

Shen Ling at the side glanced at her with a hint of resentment.

He frowned and said, "Xiao Meng, if you knew this would happen, why didn't you tell me earlier? It's so cold, how can I sleep at night?"

Hearing Shen Ling's words, Cao Fei and Lu Yang also looked over with dissatisfaction, with a hint of blame in their eyes.

It was as if they didn't have to come here.

however.

Faced with such reactions from the crowd, Luo Xiaomeng remained calm.

It seems that such situations are already commonplace.

She just shook her head and explained with a hint of helplessness in her tone.

"I only happened to see related descriptions in books before. Who could have expected that the actual temperature in this mountain would drop so much."

Having said this, she paused for a moment, as if she suddenly thought of something, and then continued.

"However, we can look around to see if there is a cave entrance in the rock wall or something like that. If we can find one, it should be warmer inside."

No one had any objection to the solution proposed by Luo Xiaomeng.

After all, the coldness all around was getting stronger at this time. A layer of grayish-white mist had risen in the forest. The mist spread, making the whole atmosphere even colder.

In addition, they had sweated a lot when they were climbing the mountain before, and now the cold wind was blowing.

The chill penetrated into the bones and felt even colder than before. For now, there was nothing I could do but try this method.

A few people packed up the tent and walked a few steps when they suddenly saw a light in the distance.

Look carefully.

It turned out to be a village.
