"Xiao Xin, do you know? Your brother and his friends have already arrived at Mount Tai." In the dormitory, Huang Jingjuan showed Chen Jiaxin the pictures taken by netizens.

"So fast? Already at Mount Tai?" Chen Jiaxin was a little surprised. It seemed that it would not take long to return to Shangdu.

Some time ago, they were still in the Northeast, but now they have already arrived at Mount Tai.

Recalling the experience of climbing Mount Tai last time, she still remembered it vividly.

If it weren't for the phrase "Since we are here", they would have turned back long ago.

The phrase "Youth has no price" made their legs tremble from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain.

Thinking about it now, their legs are still shaking.

"Mount Tai is better for them."

"You are wrong. Others don't know. It must not be difficult for Xiao Xin's brother." Cai Yue said.

"Yes, he is the man who passed Mount Emei in five hours. Mount Tai is probably a piece of cake for him." Huang Jingjuan nodded in agreement.

"Xiao Xin, when we have time, why don't we go climb Mount Emei?"

"You want to suffer again?"

"Try it."

"Whatever you want."

...

Two hours later, standing on the steps at their waists, everyone looked back at the road they came from, feeling a sense of accomplishment.

"Are we going to reach the top of the mountain soon?"

"How long will it take?"

"We haven't even reached the ticket office yet, let's take a break and continue climbing." Jiang Yuebai looked into the distance, and there was still a long way to the top of the mountain.

"Ah? Not at the ticket office yet?" Everyone was shocked.

"So it seems that we really haven't bought tickets yet."

"I'll continue after I drink some water." Long Zhan finished a bottle of mineral water in one breath.

"The water on this mountain is really expensive, a bottle costs ten yuan." Looking at the bottle of mineral water in his hand, Long Zhan still found it a little unbelievable.

They have been to so many scenic spots and traveled all over the country, but this is the first time they have seen mineral water sold at such an expensive price.

At this price, you can buy ten bottles at the foot of the mountain.

I should have brought my own water earlier.

"This water is expensive for a reason. If you know how this water comes up, you won't think it's expensive." Jiang Yuebai weighed the water in his hand.

"How did it come up? Was it transported up by cableway?"

"Here, look for yourself." Jiang Yuebai signaled him to look back with his eyes.

Everyone looked over and saw two old men who looked to be in their fifties, carrying a shoulder pole with heavy mineral water on both sides.

There were four large boxes of mineral water.

There were 24 bottles in a box, and it looked like it weighed about 100 pounds.

They are the porters of Mount Tai, an indispensable part of Mount Tai.

They shouldered the heavy burden and measured every step of Mount Tai with their feet.

Long Zhan and others were really shocked at this time. They thought of various ways to transport water to the mountain, but they didn't expect that it was carried up by manpower.

"They carried all this water up in boxes?" Tao Hong was also shocked at this moment.

Just now she was complaining about the expensive mineral water on the mountain, thinking that the scenic spot was ripping people off.

Now it seems that this ten yuan bottle of water is really not expensive.

"Yes."

"These uncles are so amazing. They can still carry so much water to climb Mount Tai at such an old age." Su Ying'er was very impressed.

Long Zhan took another look at the empty bottle of mineral water in his hand: "This water doesn't seem to be very expensive."

Everyone just looked at the two uncles, their steps were very steady, without any pause.

The shoulder poles on their shoulders were slightly bent by the heavy goods, but their backs were still straight.

It was not until the two approached that everyone realized that one of the uncles was still one-armed.

The empty sleeves swayed with the steps, but this did not slow down his pace.

The faces of the uncles were engraved with the traces of time, but their eyes revealed determination.

At this moment, the shock in their hearts was visualized.

Not only them, but even the tourists around were dumbfounded by the old man.

A mortal body, but he could be on par with gods!

Seeing the two people passing by, everyone's eyes were still on them.

"Have you all rested well?"

"Look at the old man, I am full of strength."

"Full blood resurrection."

"Go!"

Everyone started climbing Mount Tai again, and quickened their pace to catch up with the two old men.

Seeing the heavy footsteps of the two old men, everyone slowed down again.

"Uncle, uncle!" Su Ying'er followed the old man and walked to the two.

"What's wrong, little girl?" The one-armed old man paused for a moment, turned his head and looked, and then asked kindly.

"Uncle, did you carry all this water up in boxes?"

"Yes."

"How much weight do you have on your shoulders?" Long Zhan asked.

"Four boxes, 120 pounds." The old man said calmly.Responded.

"120 kilograms!"

Such a number made the people around him open their mouths wide.

"How much money can you make after this trip?" Song Qianyun asked the question she wanted to ask.

In her opinion, such a time-consuming and labor-intensive job should not be cheap.

"One trip and one north."

"How many trips do you have to run a day?"

"Six or seven times a day."

"How long does it take to walk each time?"

"One and a half hours each time, ordinary people can't do this job."

"How old are you this year? How long have you been doing this?" Long Zhan continued to ask.

"Sixty-one years old, I have been doing this for more than twenty years, almost thirty years. There were more than a hundred people before, but now only dozens of people are still doing it." The one-armed uncle answered, but his steps did not stop.

A man in his sixties, carrying 120 kilograms of water, climbing a mountain for ten hours a day, and all of them are steps. This kind of work is indeed not something that ordinary people can do.

Everyone respected the uncles even more.

At this time, several passers-by suddenly expressed their desire to try and asked the old man if they could.

After hesitating for a moment, the two old men finally agreed.

After putting down the shoulder pole, the old men were obviously much more relaxed and unconsciously moved their shoulders and necks.

Then, the tourists around were eager to try.

Many of them saw the porters for the first time and were full of curiosity and desire to try this seemingly simple but challenging job.

However, the actual situation was a slap in the face.

Several people tried to carry it, but only one person could carry it.

The moment the shoulder pole was on the shoulder, he felt an unprecedented weight, his shoulders were pressed so hard that he staggered, and he had to give up before he even took a few steps, with an embarrassed and helpless expression on his face.

After just a few simple steps, the man began to breathe heavily.

After putting down the shoulder pole, he looked at the two old men with respect in his eyes.

At this time, the tourists around him truly realized the hardship and difficulty of the porters' work.

There were so many people present who could carry it, but only a few could.

Sure enough, not everyone can do this job.

Two old men were comforting everyone, saying that they couldn't carry it when they first started.

At first, they all started with 60 kilograms, and then they gradually increased it to the current 120 kilograms.
