Chapter 15 The legend of the white horse while camping

 By the time they climbed to the halfway point of Meili Snow Mountain, the sky had gradually dimmed and it was not suitable to continue on their way.

In particular, a strong wind swept from the top of the mountain, mixed with a lot of snow and ice, which was simply biting and heartbreaking.

There was no other way. The experienced Song Hao looked around and finally selected an area with huge rocks on top and trees on both sides.

This kind of shelter at high places can not only keep warm at night, but also prevent the intrusion of wind and snow.

"I'll camp here tonight. I'll go get some firewood from the surrounding area and come back. I hope there's some dry firewood left in this damn place."

"Okay, let me put up the tent first. If you run into trouble, just shout for help."

Song Hao, who just picked up the ax and walked out, looked back around the camp and tried his best to write down a distinctive tree.

Otherwise, in such a stormy sky, even if the distance is only a few hundred meters, it will be easy to lose your way.

When the time comes, your fate will be to turn into an ice sculpture...

The speed slowed down, and the whistling of the cold wind kept echoing in his ears. He walked cautiously in the snow that could sink into his ankles, panting.

Not only is the weight of the snow making walking more difficult, but also because the body is in a hypothermic environment for a long time, and the physical strength is consumed multiple times.

"Damn it, aren't there any drier branches in this area?"

Gradually losing patience, he looked around. The wind and snow made the visibility extremely limited. Fortunately, he found a good place.

And with God's blessing, there was actually a figure moving around there, without any notice of the dangerous aura approaching behind it.

Then a dagger quietly slipped out of its scabbard...

About an hour later, Aaron, who had already set up the tent, kept blowing into his palms, wondering if Song Hao was lost.

"It's almost dark now. If he doesn't come back, we'll be in trouble."

After muttering a few words, he couldn't wait any longer, so he simply picked up the machete beside him and wanted to rush into the woods.

After all, if someone dies, there is a high probability that he will not survive tonight's snowstorm.

Fortunately, at such a critical moment, a familiar figure finally appeared in the field of vision, and he seemed to be dragging something behind him.

"Hey, is this Song Hao?"

"Sorry, I almost lost my way halfway. By the way, have you set up the tent?"

"Isn't this easy?" Aaron looked confident.

I walked slowly to the bottom of the rock and saw that although the frame was not perfect, it was still a decent tent.

Song Hao didn't say much. Anyway, as long as it can accommodate two people to rest, it will be fine. Besides, this is the result of his hard work.

He first put down the firewood in his arms, and then let go of the body wrapped around him: "I've got all the firewood and tonight's food. Go and get the flint."

"And don't forget to put some snow in the bowl. After it's boiled, we can have some soup."

At this time, Aaron, who looked shocked, fixed his eyes on the remains of a rabbit that was 20 centimeters long. He couldn't hold back a word to describe his mood for a long time.

Is this the difference between people?

On the other hand, Song Hao, who looked indifferent, simply cleaned the surface of the blade with snow, and then prepared to disembowel the unlucky rabbit.

"Little guy, I can only say that your luck is not very good, so be careful in your next life."

After that, he cut the fur with a sharp dagger, revealing the bloody flesh inside.

Because in such snowy areas, although matches are more efficient than flints, there is a risk of getting soaked in snow.

Therefore, smart hunters often only carry safer flints, which is troublesome.

After they were busy for a while, a ball of orange flame finally rose before nightfall, which gave them a sense of security.

Obviously this is not the first time Song Hao has done this...

I saw him first skewering the rabbit meat with wooden sticks and putting it on the flame to smoke. The aroma was so fragrant that I couldn't stop drooling.

Aaron's stomach growled suddenly, and he watched eagerly as the meat gradually turned into a tender golden color.

Finally, add a little salt and pepper, and it's a pure wilderness food show.

"Song Hao, let me ask you a little, why are you running to this ghost place alone?"

Aaron, who was nibbling on the rabbit thigh, seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly asked suddenly.

Quietly, the two seemed to have an indescribable tacit understanding.

After hearing this, Song Hao, who was sitting opposite, shrugged his shoulders and licked off the dripping meat juice: "I'm here to find a horse."

"What horse?"

Aaron, whose mouth was oily, seemed to have been electrocuted in his brain, and quickly asked: "Wait, are you talking about the white Arabian horse in Lake Isabel?"

Anyway, he didn’t know exactly what color it was, so Song Hao said lightly: “It should be it.”

However, he soon noticed something was wrong with Aaron's tone, and put down the rabbit head in his hand: "Is there some dangerous place there?"

The next second, Aaron took a deep breath and used his teeth to pick out the bones in his mouth: "It's not a dangerous thing."

"The main reason is that the horse cannot be controlled by ordinary people at all, otherwise why would it have been wandering around for more than two years?"

"Don't tell me that you are not good at riding horses, even I would find it awkward."

Within the next half hour, with his face illuminated by the firelight, he told Song Hao all the news he had heard in the tavern.

Someone's expression also changed from an indifferent look at the beginning until it evolved into a solemn look.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the two of them got into the tent and let the bonfire outside burn.

After all, this can drive away dangerous beasts at night.

"So after all is said and done, as long as I follow the method you said, will it really work?"

"Brother, I have been riding horses since I was a child. If there is a wild horse that I can't tame, then it will be useless even if anyone comes."

Song Hao could only believe this guy's so-called secret recipe, and he still felt a little uneasy.

As a result, just a second before he was about to close his eyes, Aaron, who was lying next to him, suddenly said: "Aren't you curious why I want to enter the snow-capped mountains?"

Song Hao, who was mentally exhausted, yawned: "You have your goals, and I have my calculations. There is no need to know everything."

This sentence comes from the bottom of my heart.

After all, in his opinion, this two-person journey will eventually come to an end, and everyone will definitely part ways in the end.

Unexpectedly, Aaron didn't think so. He looked at the snow on the top of the tent and finally said those words: "Actually, I went to fulfill the agreement for a friend."
