Tomb Raider: What the hell is this strange commission?

Chi Yu looked at Boss Zhao, who obviously neglected exercise and had loose muscles, then looked down at himself, who also did not have much exercise, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

In terms of body shape alone, Boss Zhao is tall and strong. Although not as tall as Chi Yu, if we compare him and Chi Yu in terms of horizontal development, Boss Zhao does give people a feeling that he is stronger.

In the past, many people's judgments about Chi Yu's abilities always made subtle mistakes in this regard, just as it was unreliable to guess his age based on his appearance.

Therefore, Chi Yu was too lazy to make any explanation for this situation. It was just an unintentional ridicule from the other party, and he didn't have to prove himself here.

After all, once we get there, everyone's situation will be clear at a glance.

Zhang Haixing didn't know what Chi Yu was thinking during this short period of time. She just watched the fun from the sidelines. She echoed Boss Zhao's words and showed Chi Yu an eager expression:

"You don't seem to have the habit of outdoor sports. Have you never climbed a snowy mountain before? I happen to be a top mountaineering coach. As long as you call me Sister Hai Xing, I will take good care of you on the way. How about it? Isn't it a good deal?"

Chi Yu:.

How is this a good deal? You've already taken advantage of it.

It’s fine that Boss Zhao is just an ordinary person and can’t see anything, but why are the Zhang family members joining in the fun? They all said they had received professional training.

Chi Yu was speechless for a moment: "I don't need you to worry about me. You have so much free time, why don't you take care of yourself more?"

Hearing this, Zhang Haixing curled her lips and rolled her eyes at him: "You don't even want the special coach's concern, you are a businessman."

Zhang Haike laughed at the side: "You can't just rely on your words to take advantage of Chi Yu. Maybe he looks one way, but actually acts another way. It's hard to say who will help whom."

He looked at Boss Zhao who had originally brought up this topic, and continued, "Besides, we are away from home, and the journey is long and arduous. No matter who needs help, we can try to lend a hand. This has nothing to do with interests. It's just different choices people make in different situations."

Zhang Haike's words finally came true halfway up the snow-capped mountain.

Before that, they landed in Lhasa and spent nearly a week "investigating" the surrounding situation along the most popular tourist route. Then they changed their momentum and headed straight for Tibet's last secret place - Medog.

Perhaps it was due to the delayed nature of the symptoms, Boss Zhao, who was in good condition in Lhasa, suddenly developed obvious altitude sickness, which made Chi Yu marvel at the magic of the human body.

Boss Zhao leaned weakly on Zhang Haike, carrying an opened oxygen tank on his back. He breathed oxygen while being supported by Zhang Haike and moved slowly forward. The 1.8-meter-tall man looked dying and was almost dead on the spot.

The porters hired before entering the mountains carried their bags, which were filled with equipment and food needed for the trip. Zhang Haixing and the guide walked side by side in front, looking back from time to time to check on their situation.

Chi Yu walked at the front of the team, and even the local guide found it difficult to catch up with him.

What was most difficult for the guide to understand was that, as a first-time visitor, Chi Yu was almost as familiar with the route as he was. At times, his judgment of direction was even more acute than his, which made him very frustrated.

Zhang Haixing's feelings were not much different from the guide's. She looked at Chi Yu's back, thought about it, and happily chose to speed up between maintaining the status quo and catching up.

"I didn't expect you to be so good. Even I can hardly keep up with you." Zhang Haixing said, sighing, "I just didn't realize that the other guy's physical fitness was so poor before."

"That's great. Given his current condition, we will definitely not be able to pass the mountain pass before the weather changes. We can't continue on the road ahead and have to stay in the mountains for the night."

Hearing this, Chi Yu looked up at the sky.

The dark-colored goggles hung on his face, covering most of his face, with almost no impact on his vision, but revealing a sense of inhumanity that was even stronger than before.

"We need to stay on the mountain for more than just today," Chi Yu said. "Due to altitude sickness, his mobility will be continuously affected in the rest of the journey, and our hiking time will be longer than originally expected."

Zhang Haixing laughed emotionlessly: "I've encountered this kind of situation before when I was in charge of leading people to climb mountains. They all looked strong and healthy, but when altitude sickness struck, they were like dead dogs. It was so useless, but I couldn't just ignore it. It was very annoying. Forget it, let's not talk about it. How about we change the topic to something happier?"

There was no happy topic for them to talk about. The current slow pace of progress was enough to make him uncomfortable.

Chi Yu thought about it, glanced at Zhang Haixing, and was too lazy to talk to her anymore.

If you walk in the snow-capped mountains without any purpose and just enjoy the scenery along the way, then it is undoubtedly extremely beautiful.

The dark rocks from high altitudes spanned countless time and space, standing silently in the wind and snow as always. They camped briefly on Mount Duoxiongla for one night.

Regardless of the season, the cold wind howled between the mountain peaks, and even the best windproof fabrics and cotton clothes could not resist it. No one could sleep well except Chi Yu, who was not affected by the temperature difference.

The group regrouped the next morning. The azure sky was clear and bright. Five-colored prayer flags at the mountain pass fluttered in the wind. Porters whispered prayers in front of the Mani pile, hoping that the journey ahead would be smooth.

They walked down the rugged mountain road. The broken rocks were interspersed with rushing streams, which washed the pebbles at their feet and made them extremely slippery.

But the cold stream water could not stop Chi Yu's steps. He stepped on the hideous rocks and nimbly crossed them in just a few breaths. He waited quietly for the visitors on the other side.

"I didn't realize that you, Mr. Chi, have such a skill."

After a night of adjustment, Boss Zhao's face looked less exaggerated than yesterday. It had improved a lot, so he smiled and joked to Chi Yu: "I was wrong before. It's all my fault for not being able to control my words. Don't be offended, Boss Chi."

Chi Yu did not comment on this, but just smiled gently at Boss Zhao: "Boss Zhao, your health is the most important. We have sufficient supplies. If you really can't hold on, you can rest here for a few more days before continuing on your journey."

Faced with Chi Yu's vindictive behavior, Zhang Haixiong chuckled.

Seeing everyone's eyes on her, she justified her behavior: "Come on, let's rest here for a few more days. You will be in trouble when our supplies run out later. It is best to hurry on the road as soon as possible."

Zhang Haike also suppressed the smile on his face, agreed with his sister's words, and said seriously: "Hai Xing is right. If conditions permit, we'd better not stay in this environment for too long. It's better to move on."

Chi Yu did not comment on this. He withdrew his gaze and continued walking forward alone.

From the peaks of snow-capped mountains to the valleys of rainforests, Medog is such a magical place. The dangerous road they are about to face is the hills where leeches that thrive in humid environments gather.

The towering broad-leaved forests blocked the snow-white clouds, replacing them with mist lingering in the forest.

In this secret place far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, which has not yet been planned as a popular tourist attraction, they should not run into anyone.

But when Chi Yu entered an unfamiliar environment, not everything would develop exactly as he expected.

In the distance, amidst the swaying shadows of trees and the mottled light and shadows, a strange team composed of a group of young people entered Chi Yu's field of vision.
