Endless Winter: My Camp Infinite Upgrades

Chapter 17 Big Rock Camp
If the timing wasn't inappropriate, Xia Hong would really praise Xia Chuan.

I was worried that my younger brother might lose his composure due to his young age, but I didn't expect him to be so smart.

Judging from the expressions on the faces of Wang Ming and the other three.

There should be only four of them coming here tonight.

Xia Hong narrowed his eyes and stared at the four people. Finally, he set his sights on the big knife in Wang Ming's hand, considering whether to keep the four people.

He dared to come out tonight because he had something to rely on.

Little did Wang Ming know that Xia Hong's look meant that he was considering whether to notify Xia Ding to come over.

Three young people were fighting desperately, but Wang Ming was not afraid.

But if they fail to take it down in a short period of time, or if one of the other party escapes, and they really call Xia Ding and his men over, it will be a fight to the death.

No, what if Xia Ding really brought more than a dozen people from the logging realm here?

Even with this big knife, the four of them will die tonight.

Wang Ming thought for a moment and quickly made a decision.

"My two dear nephews, there is no need to do this. We will just put down the crystal fruit and leave. We will never trespass into Da Xia territory again. Goodbye!"

Wang Ming made the decision without hesitation. He asked his companions to put the picked crystal fruits on the ground, said goodbye, and quickly led the three of them to the west without looking back.

Xia Hong watched the four people walk away until they disappeared. After a while, he turned back and gave Xia Chuan a thumbs up.

"Good boy, you've got it!"

Xia Chuan chuckled and said, "We can't beat them by fighting, so we can only use the tiger's skin to scare them away."

Hearing this, Xia Hong raised his eyebrows slightly, but said nothing.

It is obviously unwise to engage in a head-on conflict with the Dashi camp at this moment.

Shan Xia Ding and the logging team have been dead for more than a month. They have not appeared in Redwood Ridge for such a long time. The people in Dashi Camp must have discovered them.

Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to cross the border and plunder so blatantly.

If time is given a little longer, there's no guarantee that they won't guess something else.

The previous three times Xia Hong encountered them, there were more than seven people, so he could only tolerate them.

But tonight there were only four people from the other side, and there were no archers.

Xia Hong would certainly not miss such a great opportunity.

I believe that after this incident, the people in Dashi Camp will not be so rampant in the future.

"But we still need to find a way to help Yue Feng and his team break through as quickly as possible. This kind of bluffing can only be used once or twice at most. If used too much, it will be exposed."

Xia Chuan and Yuan Cheng had already picked up the crystal fruits on the ground. Feeling that they weighed over a thousand pounds, smiles immediately appeared on their faces.

It’s my first time going out, and I’m really happy to have gained this.

"Okay, remember the location of the third Bingshuo tree. Then follow me to chop down trees. Tonight, each of you will chop down one tree and bring it back."

The two of them quickly responded and quickly caught up with Xia Hong.

………………

To the east of Hongmu Ridge, on the north side of the slope where the Daxia camp is located, there is a straight hill about 100 meters high.

The hill is shaped like a vertical tower, about fifty or sixty meters long. The top is completely covered with snow. Only the trees extending out in the middle are pressed down by the snow. The rest of the mountain is made up of black stones.

Not only are the stones black, but they are also covered with a thick layer of crystals, which are obviously formed by being frozen by the cold air for many years.

On the east side of the mountain, there is a long vine hanging.

At this moment, there were four figures climbing up the vines rapidly.

Although it was over a hundred meters high, the four of them moved quickly and reached the top of the mountain in just a few minutes.

The top of the mountain is a 50-meter-wide platform without a single tree.
After the four people arrived at the top of the mountain, they walked straight to the middle, dug up a piece of snow-covered ground, and a five-meter-wide square wooden board suddenly came into view.

The leader lifted the wooden board with ease, and underneath was a hole with a diameter of three meters, and a flash of fire suddenly appeared in the hole.

The four people jumped into the cave one after another. The last person who went down took the wooden board up and covered the cave entrance again.

Below the cave entrance was a huge square space with a diameter of more than 30 meters.

Moreover, this space is as much as thirty or forty meters from the top to the ground, and is separated by a layer of wood and stones in the middle.

On the stone ground, there was a bonfire burning that was more than two meters high.

There were about three or four hundred people gathered around the bonfire, talking and laughing, with a few children playing around.

The people here are obviously in much better spirits and vigor than those in Daxia.

As soon as the four of them jumped down, someone in the crowd immediately came up to greet them with a smile.

However, when he got closer, he saw that the four people had nothing in their hands, and the man immediately looked puzzled.

"Old Wang, why did you come back empty-handed?"

"It's bad luck, don't mention it. Where's the boss? I have something to tell him."

"Practicing archery on the bottom floor."

"Okay, let's go there first."

After Wang Ming responded with a few words, he hurried to the east side of the cave.

The stone wall on the east side sloped slightly towards the bottom. Wang Ming walked down the slope and soon reached the bottom of the cave.

The space on the bottom floor is not much different from that on the upper floor. There is also a bonfire, but it is smaller than the one above.

There were two people beside the campfire, facing a wooden board on the wall, holding bows and shooting arrows.

"Boss, there's something going on over at Redwood Ridge."

Hearing Wang Ming's words, the two men put down their bows and arrows at the same time and turned to look at him.

Both of them looked middle-aged and of similar build, both were thin and their hands holding the bows were full of calluses.

Not only their body shapes, but even their looks are 70% similar.

However, the man on the left had a scar about an inch long across his face, which, combined with his fierce expression and slightly dark face, made him look quite murderous.

The one on the right is three points whiter than the former and has a very kind face.

Wang Ming walked directly towards the man on the right.

Obviously the boss he was referring to was the one on the right.

Seeing Wang Ming approaching, the man narrowed his eyes and asked calmly:
"what's the situation?"

"I just went to the outskirts to pick crystal fruits and ran into three people from Da Xia."

"Old Ding?"

"No, it's his two sons."

Hearing Wang Ming's answer, Shi Qing was stunned at first, then showed an unbelievable look, and asked again: "Old Ding's two sons, are you sure?"

Wang Ming thought for a moment, nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, I have seen those two boys clearly. They look very similar to Lao Ding, and their ages are also consistent. They must be his sons."

"How old are his two sons? Where can the thirteen people in Da Xia get extra cold beast meat for his two sons to practice?"

Shi Dong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly exclaimed.

But after he finished speaking, he turned around and found that his elder brother Shi Qing's expression had become a little ugly.

Although Shi Dong has a bad temper, he is not stupid and he immediately realized the key.

"Brother, are you suspicious that the snow-mane was taken advantage of by Lao Ding and his gang last time?"

Wang Ming slapped his forehead and suddenly realized, "Right, that must be the case. The thirteen people on the Daxia side are far less powerful than us. Over the years, they can only rely on luck to pick up some cold beast corpses. Their own training is not enough. How can they have extra cold beast meat for their two sons? It must be the snow mane."

The three of them reached a consensus, and their faces suddenly became extremely ugly.

The last time they hunted the Snow Mane, they lost three lives in total, and the one holding the knife was Shi Qing's third brother Shi Kong.

In the end, he fled in a hurry and gained nothing.

Now that they know that they have been taken advantage of by the Daxia camp, you can imagine how they feel.

Not only did they get a bargain, it was even very likely that the people from the Daxia camp had been hiding in the dark the last time they hunted the Snowmane.

I waited until they ran away before I came out to take advantage of the situation.

"How dare you play such a shady trick behind my back? I will personally lead the team to Redwood Ridge in a few days. I want to see what Daxia's current strength is."

Shi Qing's tone was grim, and his originally kind face suddenly became much more gloomy.

Shi Dong and Wang Ming, who were standing next to them, were even more furious.
