Chapter 784: She Saw a Determined, Dreamy and Perfect Face that Made Her Heart Flutter.
Xie Xuning didn’t want any problems with his temporary team.
“Let’s go.”
As the captain, Xie Xuning was supposed to lead the team.
However, since he was not as familiar with the roads as the monks in the temple were, one of the monks walked first instead.
Xie Xuning came second, while Xie Yi naturally fell in third place.
Xie Xuning walked in front of her with a temporary medicine box on his back. From Xie Yi’s angle, she could only see Xie Xuning’s profile.
She saw a determined, dreamy and perfect face that made her heart flutter.
“Dr. Xie, hold on to this.”
Xie Xuning walked aside and found a wooden stick. The length of the stick made it the perfect walking stick for Xie Yi to use.
“Ah, thank you.”
Since it was her first time walking on such a steep and snowy mountain road, Xie Yi felt like her heart was in her throat.
However, she felt a little safer since Xie Xuning was around.
It felt like no matter what happened, she didn’t have to be afraid as long as he was there.
It was still snowing heavily.
The large snowflakes poured down from the sky like bird feathers.
The snow fell on everyone’s coats. Before long, a thin layer of snow accumulated on their bodies.
Everyone walked cautiously and slowly along the road.
Aside from the piercing sound of the howling winds, the only sound heard from the team was the crunchy sound made by their steps into the snow.
The monk who was walking in front announced to the silent team, “We’re almost there!”
Everyone on the team was relieved. They were almost there, which meant that the rescue work would also officially start soon.
Xie Yi prayed silently that the stranded people wouldn’t be seriously injured.
Otherwise, it would’ve been troublesome for the rescue team to do their job.
After walking for about ten more minutes, everyone finally saw the members of the mountaineering team, who had fainted under the cliff.
The members of the mountaineering team were all wearing brightly colored winter clothes, so it was quite easy to recognize them among the white snow.
“Are you all right?”
The team was small with a total of six people.
When it started snowing heavily earlier, the monks in the temple reminded them that the mountain road was hard to walk. Something could’ve gone very wrong if they insisted on going down the mountain,
Unfortunately, someone in the mountaineering team decided to listen to their own mountaineering experiences and insisted firmly on going down the mountain.
As a result, the whole team fell off the cliff after walking for less than half an hour.
“Help us!”
Six people had slipped to the bottom of the cliff amid the snow.
Fortunately, it was just a small cliff. People who fell at this location could’ve typically climbed up slowly using branches or dead grass when it was not snowing on regular days.
However, since they fell in such terrible weather conditions, it would’ve been impossible for them to climb back up. They would all become snowmen by tomorrow with this amount of snowfall.
The monk asked, “Is anyone injured?”
Xie Xuning was considering how to execute the rescue under such limiting conditions.
He couldn’t ask monks to pull the hemp ropes. That could be very dangerous because everyone was cold. The snowy weather made the land very slippery.
“I will climb up there and you can pass me the twine.”
Xie Xuning saw a pine tree not far away.
Xie Yi quickly understood what Xie Xuning was thinking. She replied, “It’s too dangerous for you to climb alone.”
Due to the heavy snow, they could only manage to see the location of the pine tree. They couldn’t tell whether there was snow near what looked like either a pine tree or a hard rock…
