Qing Chen understood that even if he left Takayama Hida now, he wouldn't be able to find another suitable place to challenge the Ice Binding.
He could only change projects.
There aren't many people qualified to beco Knights.
Even fewer places are qualified to be Trials of Life and Death challenge locations.
Knight ancestors have accumulated thousands of years of experience in the Inner World.
If Qing Chen were in the Inner World, he could follow the ancestors' experience to find a place to challenge.
But he didn't have that opportunity this ti, which ant he had to explore the Outer World himself.
When Qing Chen wanted to complete surfing, he waited for half a month and changed two seas before he finally waited.
Li Shutong's completion of the Ice Binding was also very bumpy.
This master first entered the Southwest Great Snow Mountain and brought a strong man from the Fire Pit Tribe as a guide.
He camped at an altitude of 6200 ters in the Southwest Great Snow Mountain for a month, allowing his body to gradually adapt to the high-altitude hypoxia.
Then he went to an altitude of 7100 ters and camped overnight.
Finally, he made a final push to the main peak of the Southwest Great Snow Mountain.
He jumped from an altitude of 8000 ters, with unparalleled skill, completing the Ice Binding challenge at a speed of nearly 180 kiloters per hour.
Li Shutong said that the most difficult part is that when entering the 6200-ter altitude, every Knight must enter a reverse breathing state, allowing the body with the closed Gene Lock to adapt to the plateau.
The second difficulty is how to prevent the Fire Pit strongman from discovering that he has beco an ordinary person at an altitude of 6200 ters.
The reason for adapting to the plateau in advance is that if you use reverse breathing only after reaching the summit and starting the challenge, you will instantly experience altitude sickness, your brain thinking will beco sluggish, and various altitude sicknesses will co to you.
For Li Shutong, the challenge was even more difficult because he had to climb the main peak as an ordinary person; after jumping off the main peak, all that was left was courage.
Qing Chen could also find such a snow mountain, such as Mount Everest.
The snow layer there is extrely firm, the north slope is steep but not a cliff, just right for skiing.
But the problem is that he can't climb Mount Everest or any mountains with similar altitudes to Mount Everest in this season.
Many people climb Mount Everest throughout the year, but that's only after May.
Even local Sherpas wouldn't climb Mount Everest in winter to die!
Sumr is the warst ti of the year, and the probability of ice storms on Mount Everest will also decrease.
Even so, everyone who tries to climb to the summit must constantly monitor the weather, set off when the weather is best, and leave before the ice storm arrives.
So the Ice Binding has to wait; the most suitable ti will co in a few months.
But Qing Chen was not discouraged, but unusually excited because he had a new idea.
At this mont.
Qing Chen lay in the powder snow, looking at the staggered ridges on the distant mountains.
With just a little calculation, he figured out that if the opposite main peak is 3190 ters high, then the valley between it and the peak of Kozakura-dake would have an altitude difference of nearly 1900 ters.
The curve of the staggered ridge was exceptionally beautiful in Qing Chen's eyes.
The blade ford by the power of nature is as neat and tidy as splitting the sky in two.
This is where he will complete the Force Surge.
Qing Chen acted like a fool, grabbed a handful of powder snow and sared it on his Face[-], and then lay in the pit without moving.
Enjoying the joy of a winding path leading to a secluded spot.
At this ti, if a professional mountain ridge riding downhill athlete saw this ridge, he would also be deterred.
First, this ridge is too winding and too narrow.
The maximum cross-section of the ridge is 0.4 ters, which ans that if you turn in the wrong direction slightly, you will directly ride into the abyss.
Second, the drop is too large, which ans the speed cannot be controlled.
You can't brake casually during downhill; if you squeeze the brakes a little, you may fall directly.
The huge inertia will cause the tail of the car to rise, and then the person and the car will be overturned together.
But Qing Chen didn't care anymore.
How could the Knight's Trials of Life and Death not be accompanied by danger?
Qing Chen got up.
With a new goal, he needs to start planning everything again.
There are 27 days left until the crossing, which is very tight for the Trials of Life and Death challenge; he must cherish his ti.
Many people in the ski resort saw Qing Chen jump down and fall into the powder snow.
They laughed loudly. Yesterday, they were still wondering what this kid was climbing for, but they didn't expect him to be a novice who wanted to challenge the powder snow on the mountain.
But before they finished laughing, they found that the young man had already gotten up and was heading towards the distant main peak.
He disappeared into the wind and snow again.
Ridge downhill is not as simple as finding a road and starting to ride.
Qing Chen needs to clear away the unstable gravel and the snow on the entire ridge in the remaining 27 days.
The Knight's Trials of Life and Death are about experiencing life and death, not about finding death.
In front of the hot spring hotel.
Shinguji Maki sat on the wooden steps, wrapped in a scarf, supporting her chin with both small hands.
She looked at the big snowman in front of her and giggled from ti to ti.
She had been sitting here since 7 o'clock until 7:59 when Qing Chen returned from outside.
The little girl looked up and saw Qing Chen, quickly stood up and waved: "Older Brother!"
Qing Chen glanced at her: "Hmm."
Then he walked straight past the little girl.
Shinguji Maki didn't mind. At this ti, she already understood that this older brother from afar was cold on the outside but warm on the inside and didn't really dislike her.
She took out slippers from the shoe cabinet, neatly placed them on the ground, and said with a smile: "Grandma woke up this afternoon, and her appetite has improved a bit. I made her thick olet and fried fish, and she said it was delicious. Grandma also said that her illness will be cured soon."
Qing Chen silently looked at the little girl.
A sudden improvent in appetite for a late-stage lung cancer patient is not a good sign.
No one told the little girl that lung cancer is actually incurable. The doctor hid it from her, and even grandma hid it from her, always saying that the illness only needs more rest.
She takes care of her grandma every day and naively hopes that one day, grandma will wake up from a sleep and be cured.
After entering the house, Qing Chen found that the food the little girl brought today was even richer.
Besides the usual rice, fried fish, thick olet, and miso soup, there was also a slightly burnt piece of braised beef.
Qing Chen looked at the braised beef, then looked at the little girl who was still wearing gloves after entering the house: "Take off your gloves."
Shinguji Maki hesitated for a mont, but finally took them off; there were burn marks on her right hand, probably left when she was making the braised beef.
The little girl seed to have done sothing wrong, her head drooped.
Qing Chen: "You"
The little girl looked up at her older brother, thinking that the other party was going to say sothing caring.
Qing Chen: "Don't burn the braised beef next ti."
The little girl: "Oh."
Qing Chen ate all the food by himself.
Shinguji Maki sat aside and said cautiously: "Older Brother, I'm going to take the bus to Nakatsugawa City, Gifu Prefecture tomorrow to buy dicine for Grandma. I promise I'll be back before 7 o'clock in the evening and won't delay making dinner for you, okay?"
A prefecture in Japan is a region, equivalent to a provincial-level administrative unit in China, and Nakatsugawa City is the closest city to Bai Chuan Village.
Only she can work in this hot spring hotel. If she leaves, it ans that if Qing Chen cos back at noon, he may not find a place to eat.
Although Qing Chen only cos back in the evening every day, her sudden departure is sowhat irresponsible, so the little girl is a little uneasy.
But Grandma's dicine has been out for several days. Before, there was no money to buy dicine, but now Qing Chen has advanced the rent, so she has to go to Takayama Hospital in Gifu Prefecture.
Qing Chen looked at the little girl: "You're going to Gifu Prefecture alone?"
"Yeah," Shinguji Maki nodded seriously: "It won't delay Older Brother's dinner."
Qing Chen was worried that the little girl would get lost or encounter ill-intentioned people if she went to Gifu Prefecture alone.
What the little girl worried about was that Qing Chen would not agree to her leaving.
"Go," Qing Chen said and then went back to his room to prepare to sleep.
The door closed, then reopened, and Qing Chen handed the little girl a small bottle of black ointnt: "Put it on your hand."
Then, the door closed again.
In the morning.
Shinguji Maki got up early as usual. She would make breakfast for Grandma, leave it by the bed, put Older Brother's bedding in the closet, and then go out.
But when the little girl opened the bedroom door, she stared at Qing Chen's figure with wide eyes: "Older Brother?! Why are you here?!"
In the past, Qing Chen should have left before she woke up.
At this ti, Qing Chen glanced at her: "I have sothing to do in Gifu Prefecture today. Hurry up and pack up. We'll take the first Nouhi Bus."
Shinguji Maki was stunned for a few seconds, then her big eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, Older Brother, wait for a mont, I'll leave food for Grandma and then leave."
While the little girl was busy, Qing Chen searched for mountain bike shops in Gifu Prefecture on his phone.
With new Trials of Life and Death, of course, he needs to prepare new equipnt.
It doesn't need to be complicated; a sturdy mountain bike is enough.
He could directly ask Si Nianhua to send it, but now even Si Nianhua doesn't know his whereabouts or what he is doing in Japan.
Based on the principle of not exposing his whereabouts, Qing Chen felt that it was safer to buy it himself.
It's not that he doesn't trust Si Nianhua.
Qing Chen thought that Si Nianhua might not be from the Outer World. In every Ti Traveler controlled by the Conglorate, there will be so people who use Neural Link technology to reversely seize the body; these people are the leaders of the Outer World.
All Conglorates do this; the Qing Family should be no exception.
He trusts that Si Nianhua will resolutely carry out Shadow's orders, but if soone on Si Nianhua's side has exposed himself and been targeted by Shendai, it will beco a hidden danger.
Before completing the Trials of Life and Death, he didn't want to expose his whereabouts because of such a trivial matter.
Half an hour later, the two boarded the first Nouhi Bus. Shinguji Maki sat on the left side of the last row, and Qing Chen sat on the right side of the last row. The two were like strangers who didn't know each other, keeping their distance.
Shinguji Maki didn't know why Qing Chen did this, but having soone accompany her to Gifu Prefecture was a very happy thing.
