I, after failing the exam, went to Xiangxi to drive away corpses!

Lin Hao lay half-lying on the back of the chair, looking at the scenery passing by outside the window.

Although he felt a little heavy and ominous about all the previous signs and the words of the mausoleum man before leaving, when he thought about the system mission that was about to begin, the heaviness in his heart suddenly faded a lot, and his mood changed again. Got to fly up

"I wonder what rewards will be given after completing the system task this time?"

"How high can I improve?"

"It’s really exciting!"

Just when Lin Hao's thoughts were racing.

Suddenly!

There was a sound from the bed next to Lin Hao. It sounded like he was watching some video.

First, a female voice came:"Next, let's interview our legendary mountain climber. Athlete, Mike!"

"Mike, after five years, our American mountaineering team and the Chinese mountaineering team once again challenged to climb the summit of Mount Everest at the same time. What do you think of this?"

The female voice ended, and then a male voice came. It should be the person named Mike.

The voice was full of confidence in the American mountaineering team, and also had a bit of disdain for the Chinese mountaineering team. She smiled and said:"What do you think? ? Of course I am more optimistic about our American mountaineering teams!"

"Counting over the years, it seems that no matter which Chinese mountaineering team they are, they have never climbed higher than our American mountaineering team, right?"

"Therefore, this year is no exception, even……"

"China may be worse than us!"

"Because, a few days ago, I visited the training bases of several promising mountaineering teams and found that they trained too hard and their strength also increased rapidly!"

"I believe they will be a blockbuster this time, and maybe they can actually reach the top successfully!"

"I……"

Before the video could continue to play, the video sound stopped abruptly.

At the same time, a male voice full of anger came:"Bah, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Immediately afterwards, many voices started talking.

"That's right, are these foreigners training hard? Our Chinese mountaineering team is also training hard!"

"It’s not that bad. I really hope that our Chinese mountaineering team can work harder this year and let the Americans take a good look at what China’s strength is!"

"However, rational analysis shows that compared to the American mountaineering team, our Chinese mountaineering team is indeed insufficient in terms of equipment and technology."

"Many of our ancestors are buried in the snow-capped mountains. This time, we must bring honor to our departed predecessors!"

"……"

Lin Hao was interrupted by this noisy sound.

He subconsciously turned his head and looked to the side, only to see five strong boys sitting side by side on the lower bunk. The boy in the middle was holding a mobile phone horizontally in his hand.

Everyone's face was frowning, their eyes seemed to be spitting out fire, and they were talking continuously.

Lin Hao probably understood what the video was. It should be a hot news topic about climbing Mount Everest in various countries.

After all, it is the first time in five years to climb Mount Everest again, and all countries are striving to reach the summit. It is naturally a grand occasion, and the people are paying attention to this matter.

"It seems that the Chinese mountaineering team is not favored!"

"This time the Mount Everest corpse hunt seems to be quite lively."

Thinking of this, Lin Hao didn't want to think too much.

When he thought about climbing mountains, picking up corpses, and other things to do, his body suddenly felt tired and sleepy.

So he slowly closed his door. He had lost his eyes and was preparing to recharge his batteries and sleep until Mount Everest, sleeping with him for two days and two nights.

……

Two days later.

3pm.

The train slowly arrived at Everest Station.

Lin Hao stepped off the train, breathed in the cold and dry air here, and suddenly felt refreshed.

He raised his head and glanced at the sun that was still high in the sky, thinking that he would not be able to catch the corpses in a while, so he would first find a hotel and rest for a few hours, and wait until it was almost dark before going to Mount Everest.

So I quickly left the train station, took a taxi and stayed in a hotel not far from Mount Everest.

At this point, the hotel room.

Lin Hao stood in front of the window with his hands behind his hands, looking out the window.

In front of us is a stretch of snow-capped mountains, the tallest of which is Mount Everest.

Mount Everest stands among the mountains, reaching straight into the sky.

The white clouds are very thick and the distribution is extremely interesting. They all seem to be circling around Mount Everest!

It's just that... the clouds are a bit gray today, and arcs flash from time to time.

It seems like... something is brewing.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Lin Hao felt a little depressed unconsciously.

He sighed softly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and whispered softly:"I hope this trip to Mount Everest won't have too many twists and turns. The senior corpse exterminators of the past generations have given you their blessings.""

……

Mount Everest, the main peak of the Himalayas, is also the highest mountain peak in the world, with an altitude of 8844.43 meters.

This place is inaccessible, covered with snow all year round, and buried with too much history and stories.

The mystery of Mount Everest has been spread since ancient times. Because too few people have set foot on it, no one understands it. Therefore, it is shrouded in a veil of unknown. There are even rumors that there are snowmen on Mount Everest.

And this day is a very important day.

After five years, mountaineering expedition teams from various countries once again gathered under Mount Everest to climb the highest peak, impacting a feat moment in human history!

……

At this time, halfway up the mountain.

There were eleven people, eight men and three women.

Three men and three women among them were none other than the same group of mountaineers who met Lin Hao at the Colorful Yuntian Resort.

After the six people were found by police in the woods that day, they were sent directly back to the rest area of the resort.

After resting for a while, they took a plane to Mount Everest. After climbing all the way, they arrived at an area accessible to ordinary people. They met up with the five seniors with experience in climbing the mountain in front of them and prepared to climb up to Mount Everest together. Keep climbing

"You are here."

Xu Yan, an experienced mountain climber, breathed a sigh of relief.

He glanced at the direction where the six mountaineers had just come, and said with lingering fear:"This avalanche came suddenly. Although it was small, it was There is still danger. Did you encounter any danger when you came over there?"

Not long ago, a small-scale avalanche occurred on the northeast side of Mount Everest. The impact was not big, but it was also dangerous. But it is not unusual. After all, it is Mount Everest, which is covered with snow all year round. Occasionally small avalanches are normal, and I am most afraid of it. It's a big avalanche, but it's hard to encounter.

The six mountaineers looked at me and I looked at you and shook their heads with a smile.

"No no"

"When we arrived, the avalanche was over"

"Haha, good luck!"

"……"

They talked to each other, and quickly replied to Xu Yan, with excitement in their voices, and they were looking forward to the next climb.

Xu Yan nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

He raised his head and glanced at the sky, then waved to the six mountaineers and said seriously:"Okay, let's keep going if it's okay. We have to reach the second step before twelve o'clock in the morning. We must set up camp somewhere else, otherwise when the wind direction changes after twelve o'clock, except for the second step, we will be in danger no matter where we are on Mount Everest.��"

After saying that, he winked at the other four senior climbers, and then took steps forward together.

The six mountaineering enthusiasts were also frightened by Xu Yan's seriousness, and they began to pay attention to him.

So he didn't dare to delay any longer, and quickly followed Xu Yan and others, while shouting in unison:"Yes!"

……

Nine o'clock in the evening.

On Mount Everest, the snow is so thick that it can cover a person’s calf.

The snow reflected the faint light of the stars and the moon, illuminating the surroundings that should have been almost completely dark.

A cold hurricane roared all around, mixed with ice and snow fragments, and it was really as sharp as a knife.

And about three-quarters of the way up Mount Everest.

Following a string of clear footprints on the snow, we could see a tightly packed group of people, carrying oxygen tanks and flashlights, moving forward.

Facing the wind and snow, they walked very hard, very slowly, but also very determined!

And from the whole body, only the face as big as a palm is exposed, it can be difficult to distinguish, there are eight men and three women, a total of eleven people.

It was none other than the six mountaineers and Xu Yan.

They were divided into two groups.

The group in front of them were Xu Yan and the five of them, walking and stopping, as if they were exploring the way for the people behind them.

Naturally, they were followed by the six mountaineering enthusiasts. Their movements and routes were exactly the same as those of Xu Yan and the other five, for fear of something going wrong.

"Crunch...crunch...crunch……"

The eleven people covered their eyes with their hands to prevent ice and snow from flying into their eyes.

He kept moving forward in the direction illuminated by the flashlight, one foot deep and one foot shallow, making strange noises in the snow.

Echoing in the deserted surroundings... it's so unexpected!

"Senior Xu, before we came here we went to Colorful Cloud Field and encountered a very scary thing there."

At this time, one of the six mountaineering enthusiasts, a woman, suddenly spoke.

Seeing that the surroundings were too quiet, she felt a little scared, so she wanted to talk to dispel the fear in her heart:"That's right, we met a Very weird person, he……"

This woman is not a fool, so she is naturally worried that she will suffer from hypoxia if she talks too much.

So he spoke very slowly and softly, not wasting any more air.

This lecture took almost ten minutes to finish.

After saying that, the woman chuckled and said:"Senior Xu, that man is really weird, do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"

"oh?

Xu Yan didn't even look back, and asked curiously:"You just kill people when you say they will. Why are you talking about whether you believe in ghosts or not?""

The woman explained:"Mainly that person is too weird, and those corpses can move, so……"

Xu Yan shook his head and laughed:"How can there be ghosts in the world? You have to ask the police about this. Didn't you all report the alarm? Then they should all be arrested."

The others nodded:"That's right. How can there be such a thing in the clear sky? There is a ghost."

He just finished speaking. at this time

"Are you also going to the summit of Mount Everest?"

A man's voice suddenly rang out.

The voice was hoarse and aged, like sandpaper rubbing against the ground.

The eleven people were immediately startled.

After all... they just talked about ghosts.

It was so sudden. When a sound came out, they were naturally a little panicked.

They subconsciously pointed their flashlights in the direction of the sound, and turned their heads at the same time. Suddenly, their pupils shrank, their eyes widened, and their brows twitched unconsciously. A few times.

Under their surprised gazes, ten meters away, there was a person walking through the dense ice and snow, like a movie fading into a special effect, slowly walking from the darkness to the light step by step. He is a middle-aged man with an unshaven beard.

His eyebrows and beard are covered with frost.

He is wearing a mountaineering style from many years ago and has a small LOGO with the word"Hengfeng" written on his chest. There was a hint of redness on his slightly cold blue face.

The man walked up to the crowd and seemed to want to put a smile on his face, but his face was frozen. In the end, there was an expression that was half-smiling but not smiling.

Under the light of the flashlight, it looked extremely charming!

He glanced around at the stunned people and then said slowly:"Don't be afraid, I have nothing else. Meaning, I got separated from my mountaineering team. I can't find my teammates here no matter what, and I feel like I'm lost. I can't get out of here no matter how I walk! fine……"

Having said this, the middle-aged man paused and stretched out his hands, as if he wanted to step forward and hug everyone.

But... maybe he saw the wary look in everyone's eyes, or maybe he saw everyone taking a small step back.

He retracted his hands in embarrassment and continued:"Fortunately, I saw you at this moment. I wanted to ask, if you are also going to the top of Mount Everest, can you take me with you? Maybe my teammates have already Come up!"

After hearing the middle-aged man's words, everyone recovered a little from the shock.

They looked at each other quickly and frowned slightly.

His eyes swayed slightly, and there was a bit of surprise in his eyes.

"From the Hengfeng Mountaineering Team? This is an old team. I haven’t seen this team much in more than ten years. It seems that they are back on the scene again!"

"Judging from the appearance of this man, he has indeed been walking in this wind and snow for a long time."

"Do you want to give him a ride?"

The six mountaineering enthusiasts all looked at Xu Yan and the five people in front of them, their eyes full of inquiries, waiting for the two to make a decision.

Xu Yan and the five people just looked at each other, and they already had something in their hearts.

Everyone knows that a foreign mountaineering team is coming this time , and anyone who has experienced climbing a mountain will understand the truth.

Mine have a unified code name - the

Chinese Mountaineering Team! Only if the Chinese or the Chinese Mountaineering Team help each other can they defeat the foreign mountaineering teams. Knowing this in his heart, he naturally would not refuse to accept this middle-aged man. Xu Yan nodded at the middle-aged man and said simply:"No problem, we Chinese should help each other, just follow us. OK, let's take you with us!

"

"thanks, thanks!"

The middle-aged man was overjoyed and nodded his thanks repeatedly.

Xu Yan shook his head with a smile and didn't say much.

Time was running out!

He didn't have much time to be polite, so he waved to everyone, then turned around and continued forward. Walking away, he said at the same time:"Okay, hurry up, let's keep moving forward, and we must reach the second step before twelve o'clock!"

"yes!"

Everyone responded, nodded to the middle-aged man, and then quickly followed him.

The middle-aged man glanced at the people in front of him gratefully, put all the words of gratitude in his heart, and followed him closely..

At this time, the young woman named 'Lulu' asked:"I don't know what to call this uncle?

The middle-aged man sighed and replied,"My surname is Liu, just call me Lao Liu!""

Lulu nodded, looking thoughtful, then smiled and said:"Uncle Liu, why do I think you look so familiar? I always feel like I have seen you somewhere.

A teammate next to him echoed:"Yeah, I feel like I've seen him somewhere before, but I just can't remember." Uncle Liu, have you ever been in the news? Could it be a celebrity from our Chinese mountaineering team?

Liu Shengli joked with a smile:"I'm just an ordinary person, not a celebrity. Maybe people get more handsome as they get older. I don't know which celebrity I look like!""

A senior climber suddenly said:"Old Liu, where did you buy this mountaineering suit? This brand of mountaineering suit is rare now. I will buy one later. Liu

Shengli shook his head and said:"What? This is issued by our captain collectively, haha, I didn't buy it.""

The group of people chatted briefly and continued to climb into the distance.

Although they had only stopped for less than five minutes, the night seemed to be getting deeper.

The moonlight shone down and shone on everyone.

The shadows of more than ten people were vague. , drifting into the distance with shallow and deep footsteps

"Crunch...crunch...crunch……"

The group of people just kept walking forward despite the wind and snow.

In the dark, people always forget time and distance.

They didn't know how long they had been walking, or how far they had traveled.

All I know is... as soon as I raise my eyes, the second step seems to be getting closer and closer.

"Wait a moment!"

At this moment.

Suddenly!

Xu Yan, who was walking at the front, lowered his voice and reminded everyone in a low voice.

Everyone subconsciously glanced at Xu Yan who reminded him, and then followed his gaze to the front..

But he saw a person standing in the ice and snow, about less than ten meters away, looking like he was digging in the snow or digging something.

"Is that a figure?"

"who? Are you also a mountaineer?"

Everyone was curious. After all, Mount Everest is so big. The probability of meeting other people is really low. Unless you are on some necessary roads, there is no suitable way to go up the mountain.

Everyone looked over curiously.

I saw that this person was wearing He was extremely weird and very thin, wearing a black cloak covering his whole body, and a hat on his head. The huge hood covered his whole head.

There were so many snowflakes on the hat that it almost turned white.

"this……"

"ah!"

Seeing this, someone suddenly screamed.

Listening carefully, it was the voice of the girl Lulu.

"hiss——！"

Others who were at Colorful Cloud Field Resort seemed to have noticed something. Looking at the strange figure in the wind and snow in the distance, their eyes suddenly widened and they took a breath of cold air.

They looked at each other subconsciously, with a look of confusion and fear in their eyes, and they couldn't help but murmur in their hearts.

"Isn't it?"

"Could it be……"

"Is it really him?"

"No way?"

"Shouldn't he be in prison now?"

"How come it appears here?"

"and……"

"Still dressed like this?!"

"Aren't you afraid of freezing to death or dying of lack of oxygen?"

"It can't be that person!"

Hearing the low conversation of these young people, everyone else looked blank.

However, just when everyone's thoughts were a little messy, the man suddenly turned his head and looked over.

Buzz!

The light of the flashlight shone directly. Underneath the cloak is a handsome face.

"Damn it, it’s really him!"

"Damn it, can you encounter it in such a ghost place? What kind of fate is this!"

"Damn it!"

The six mountaineering enthusiasts were immediately dumbfounded and confused. They felt incredible.

……

Lin Hao left the hotel at about seven o'clock and began to climb Mount Everest, looking for the nine corpses he was looking for in the mission.

After first finding one of the corpses, he immediately rushed over, preparing to pick up one first.

As a result... before he even started to pick up the body, he heard someone coming, so he turned around to see who it was.

"……" silence.

Except for the sound of howling wind all around,
