When I was supposed to be slaying the dragon, I accidentally started cultivating immortality - Chapter 86 Going up the mountain

Logically speaking, whether it is an exciting mission or a boring trip, it is undoubtedly a wonderful thing to have a beautiful woman accompany you during the journey.

In particular, Mai Shutoku is not only very beautiful, but also has an impeccable figure. As a Japanese, she also speaks fluent American English and Chinese. Old Tang can also learn spoken Chinese from her. If he is lucky, he might be able to speak Chinese. The opportunity to develop the relationship further is a godsend.

But now Old Tang just wants to escape as quickly as possible from this woman who has been looking at him with extremely strange eyes, and never to meet her again.

As a road fool, getting lost is not a shameful thing, but being separated from the mission goal by a country is no longer something that can be described as a mere “road fool” no matter how you look at it.

The ruins they want to explore on this mission come from the ancient Inca Empire, to be precise, they are in the north of “Coliasuyu”, one of the four major administrative regions of the ancient Inca Empire.

The ancient Inca kings and nobles divided the ancient Inca Empire into four administrative regions with the capital “Cusco” as the central base. The east was called “Antisuyu”, the west was called “Contisuyu”, and the north was called “Antisuyu”. It is called “Kipchasuyu” and the south is called “Koliyasuyu”.

These four large administrative regions represent the entire territory that the Inca Empire extended to all directions. The newly conquered lands, no matter how far away they are, will be included in these administrative regions according to the direction of extension.

Cusco, the capital city located in the center of the four administrative regions, does not belong to any one region. It means “the navel of the earth” and represents the “center” of the world view and geographical view of the ancient Inca Empire.

These four administrative regions plus the capital Cusco are collectively called “Tawantinsuyo”, which means “the country of the four directions” in Quechua, which means all countries including Spain, which colonized the ancient Inca Empire. The “Inca Empire” as perceived by Western countries.

Old Tang’s mission meeting point was in the north of Coliasuyu. According to modern maps, it was almost at the junction of Bolivia and Peru – that is to say, Old Tang came to the wrong country. Although the hunter meeting point was far away from Peru, The border is very close, but it is actually in Bolivia.

Mai Shutoku thought Tang got lost after getting off the plane in Cusco, applied for a Bolivian visa, and then drove to Bolivia. However, after a conversation in the car, she realized that he had completely mistaken the country of landing.

Although the meeting point is in an uninhabited area in the wilderness of Principle City, so when the employer gave the address, he only sent an electronic map with detailed markings instead of a string of characters specific to the house number, but even looking at the map, normal people should not be able to Are you mistaken about which country the target location is?

After confirming that Old Tang had indeed misjudged the country where the meeting point was located, Mai Shutoku patted the steering wheel hard and laughed. The Dodge Ram was rampaging on the wide wilderness road like a real bighorn ram.

In the midst of Old Tang’s fear, shame and anger, Mai Shutoku took him to the nearest city to apply for a visa to Bolivia, and then drove him all the way to the mission meeting point.

As a road fool who had already accepted his fate and could find himself in the wrong country even if he looked at the map, Old Tang naturally did not notice before arriving at the mission location that the meeting point was actually on a high mountain with an altitude of over 2,800 meters!

He finally understood why Mai Shutoku asked him to buy a thick and reliable mountaineering jacket in the city – at an altitude of 2,800 meters, even if his body could resist altitude sickness, it was impossible to ignore the highest altitude. The temperature will not be higher than 5 degrees Celsius.

Without suitable cold-proof equipment, he might freeze to death on the mountain before long.

After contacting the other hunters who had gathered through the satellite phone, Old Tang met with the large group under the leadership of Mai Shutoku, and waited for another half day for the others who had not yet arrived. They rested their equipment and set off towards the ruins on the top of the mountain – a few days Old Tang, who used to think that his employer was very wealthy and generous, now really felt that his employer’s money was a bit too little.

Especially when I learned from Mai Shutoku that the mission location was as high as 3,400 meters above sea level.

There were about fifteen or sixteen people in Old Tang’s group, two of them came as a team, and the rest, including Old Tang and Mai Shutoku, were all lone wolves.

The soles of his hiking boots made a squeaking sound on the dry weeds. The surrounding areas were either trees or low bushes. Old Tang did not dare to look away from other people for a moment – in this kind of mountainous forest, he could only look at the other people. If he meets other people, he will almost certainly get lost. Once he gets lost, he can basically think about how to write his epitaph.

It’s just that he almost never leaves the vicinity of his home. Having lived in Brooklyn for a long time, even though his physical fitness is far better than that of ordinary people, he will not experience obvious discomfort or even pain when facing altitude sickness, but he has never experienced this before. It is inevitable that you will still feel a little uncomfortable in such an environment.

His face doesn’t look very good now.

“Hey, brother, I think you don’t look good.”

Next to Old Tang, a man with thick brown-red hair and eyes like gray glass walked up to him wearing a thermal mask and carrying a large hiking bag.

“I’m just not used to the environment here. Most people are not good at high altitude operations.”

Old Tang replied while remaining vigilant.

“As hunters who perform missions all over the world, we can’t be affected by the environment,” the brown-red-haired man said with a familiar look, “I know you, many people in the forum call you ‘Lucky Tang’, I most I like to deal with lucky people, and I think your luck will spare a little bit to protect your friends.”

“So let’s make friends,” the brown-red-haired man chuckled, and took out a small handful of fresh green leaves from the pocket of his mountaineering suit with his leather-gloved hand, “This is what I picked up from the bottom of the mountain before going up. I got it from my village. Chewing it can relieve the discomfort of altitude sickness. It’s not a valuable thing anyway, so I’ll give it to you.”

Seeing that Old Tang had no intention of reaching out to take it, the brown-red hair pulled down the mask with his other hand, revealing the lower half of his face with thick lips. He opened his mouth, revealing the green plant fibers inside, and pointed with his finger.

“Look, I’m just eating this thing. It’s reliable and useful.” The brown-red haired person picked up a leaf and put it into his mouth to chew. “Look, just eat it. Now that we are walking together in a group, what else do I have to think about?” ?”

Old Tang hesitated for a moment, and took advantage of the gap when he spoke and opened his mouth, and saw that the other party had indeed chewed up the leaves he put in his mouth. He stretched out his hand to take the leaves, when a black shadow suddenly flashed over.

“Bang——”

The dull sound of leather hitting sounded, and everyone in the team stopped at the same time, turning their heads to look in the direction of the sound. Mai Shutoku was holding the scabbard of Kodachi, and her brown-red haired hand was raised high, unable to hold it. The living leaves were lifted up and then fell down again, and his face was twisted because of the pain coming from his hands.

“Egret, what are you doing?”

A yellow man with a middle-aged face frowned and looked at Mai Shutoku.

His hunter code name is “Brown Wolf”. He doesn’t know which country he comes from, and his origin is very mysterious. However, he is well-known in the hunter network and is a first-class hunter. He is the most prestigious among this group of people. At this moment, he is the most Ask first.

“It’s nothing,” Mai Shutoku didn’t seem to care about the prestige of the brown wolf. She pointed at the brown hair with the scabbard in a relaxed tone, “He wants to trick others into eating coca leaves. I can’t stand it.”

Coca leaves? !

Including Old Tang and Brown Wolf, all the hunters’ expressions changed differently, especially Old Tang. He didn’t know what coca leaves looked like but knew what coca leaves could extract. Anger arose in his heart.

The brown wolf took two steps lightly but quickly, walked to a leaf that had fallen on the withered grass, looked down at it carefully, and then looked up at the brown-red hair.

“It’s indeed coca leaves. Do you have anything to explain?”

The way the brown wolf looked at the brown-red hair seemed like the wolf was really looking at its prey.

“Explanation? What explanation? I just have good intentions. Although coca leaves are the raw materials for that thing, they are also medicinal materials. Chewing only two pieces is completely beneficial than…cough!”

The brown wolf rushed in front of him before he knew it, and dug his fist deeply into his abdomen, causing him to arch up like a shrimp due to the severe pain, leaving him speechless.

“I am not the leader of this team, so this is not a punishment for you, but a provocation. You can choose to fight back against me.” The brown wolf lowered his head and looked down at the brown-red hair who was curled up and kneeling on the ground, “If you have the guts .”

Organizing the information makes me feel overwhelmed…
