Night’s Nomenclature - Chapter 511
[four hundred and ninety-six,]
Nomenclature of the Night https://
At this moment, Qing Chen was trekking between the snow-capped mountains, looking for the most suitable place for him to complete his life and death according to the established goal.
Although the key point of life and death is to experience life and death, this does not mean that the knights will not do any preparation work.
Before the challenge, plan the route of the challenge, which is the homework that every knight must do.
Takayama Hida is a very suitable place for skiing. Even in May, the main peak, Okuho Takadake, is covered with snow all year round.
Okuho Takadake (3190 meters above sea level), Kanazawa Mountain (3103 meters above sea level), Beiho Takadake (3106 meters), Qianho Takadake (3090 meters), Xiho Takadake (2909 meters).
These peaks, collectively known as the Hotaka Mountains, are not as high as Mount Fuji, but because there are too many extremely steep cliffs, the difficulty of climbing is much higher than Mount Fuji.
From a distance, some peaks look like a kitchen knife being erected in the mountains, walking on the ridge, like dancing on the edge of the blade.
.
Among island writers, many stories of their works falling off cliffs and dying happened here.
For example, in Yasushi Inoue’s novel “Ice Wall”, Uozu and Kosaka fell to their deaths here.
Ice Wall seems to be a very vivid name.
Qingchen walked along the mountain path for skiers in the white snow.
There are many skiers, but most of them play on the slopes on the gentle side of the mountain, and not many people set foot in the more dangerous areas.
Life and death cannot be completed in the ski resort. Ice consolidation is a life-and-death test that requires extremely strict speed. What it has to challenge is the limit of skiing speed!
So, Qingchen set off from the mountainside and continued to climb to the top of the mountain.
It didn’t take long for the staff of the ski resort to shout to him on the mountainside: “Hey, you can’t go up any more, you will die if you go to the top of the mountain in this weather!”
When Qing Chen turned his head, he suddenly stepped on the snow in the next step.
But seeing him shake a few times, he continued to trudge upwards with difficulty.
However, Qingchen suddenly discovered a problem. The mountain he was on was full of ‘powder snow’, and no one could speed up in powder snow.
Generally, the conditions for the formation of powder snow are very strict. If there is heavy snow, the temperature should not be extremely low, and the solidification core will fall on the ground before it is fully frozen.
Pick up powder snow and it will even slide like quicksand from your fingers.
Although Takayama Hida is covered with snow all year round, it is a strange geographical environment when the temperature is rarely below zero.
The moist and warm water vapor blows from the ocean, and it encounters the high-altitude cold air on the land to form snowfall, and the snowflakes pile up fluffy on the mountain.
If you want to challenge the speed of skiing, the snow layer must already be extremely compact.
Just like running on concrete is bound to be faster than running in sand.
Qing Chen frowned and continued to climb up firmly.
This time, poverty may have limited his imagination. He chose this place as a place for life and death challenges because everyone said that powder snow is the best, the most suitable for skiing, and the most luxurious.
But because he didn’t really ski, he didn’t expect that powder snow is not suitable for challenging life and death.
At this time, many skiers were suddenly halfway up the mountain, looked up and saw the small black shadow on the mountain peak, slowly trudging between the mountain peaks, and they were all stunned.
What is the difference between going to the top of the mountain this season and courting death?
Ke Qingchen not only did not stop, but went higher and higher until he disappeared into the snow.
…
…
7:50pm.
The sky in Shirakawa-go has darkened, Jinguji Maki glanced at the quartz clock in the room, then returned to the window, lying on the window and waiting.
At this time, in the paradise, the dim and warm lights in front of the hot spring hotel were lit up.
In order to save electricity, the little girl turned off the lights at home, but only left the lights at the door.
This is because she is worried that Qingchen will come back late,
If the light at the entrance of the hotel is also turned off, the other party may not be able to find the hotel.
The skiers have returned to Shirakawa Township one after another, and the hot spring hotels have prepared hearty dinners for them early, and there are clean hot springs that can wash away their exhaustion.
This is the most comfortable moment for all skiers.
Ke Qingchen has not returned yet.
No normal tourist would stay in the snowfield until this time, and Jinguji Maki began to worry.
At this time, another group of skiers walked past the door.
The little girl opened the window and let the wind and snow pour into the window. She waved to the skiers in the distance and shouted, “Sir, is there anyone else at the ski resort?”
“No more, we were the last, and the ski area was closed when we came out,” the skiers said.
“Oh, thank you…” Jinguji Maki retracted her head, she was even more worried at this time, the elder brother didn’t bring snowboards, there should be no one on the mountain at this time, where will the other party go?
Don’t be in trouble.
The little girl looks at the clock on the wall from time to time, and then looks out the window, so kind-hearted brother, should be a punctual person, right?
Although it has nothing to do with it, she is so firm in her determination.
At 7:59, Jinguji Maki saw a thin figure from a distance, wearing a jacket, walking slowly from the darkness behind the snow.
Jinguji Maki’s eyes lit up, she hurriedly left the window sill, ran to the door like the wind, took out the slippers from the shoe cabinet, and then opened the door of the hot spring hotel and waved to Qingchen: “Oni-chan!”
The crisp voice was stirred into the wind and snow, and it swayed far and far.
Qing Chen looked up at her, then lowered his head and walked towards the wind and snow.
Seeing that Qingchen didn’t respond to her, Jinguji Maki was not discouraged.
The little girl happily put the slippers on the ground, and then ran into the kitchen in a hurry, and brought the prepared meals to the table, while she happily ate the rice balls.
The meals are still rice, fried fish, omelette, and miso soup.
It seems that Jinguji Maki can only do these things, and it is not good enough.
Qing Chen took off his jacket and sat down, and seriously ate all the food, not even a sip of soup was left.
The little girl asked expectantly, “Is the food delicious today?”
Qing Chen shook his head: “It’s not delicious.”
Little girl: “…O.”
Qingchen looked at her: “Why are you still having dinner? Didn’t I pay the rent in advance?”
Jinguji Maki thought for a while and said, “Grandma needs medicine… the rice ball is delicious. I added pickled cucumbers to it today.”
Qing Chen was silent for a few seconds: “Where are your parents?”
Jinguji Maki said: “When my father was a tour guide for tourists, the tourist accidentally slipped and fell off the cliff. In order to save each other, he was pulled down together. My mother remarried to Hokkaido, and my grandmother asked me not to blame her, she have a life of their own.”
“Aren’t you sad,” Qing Chen asked, knowing that this sentence would stab the little girl.
Jinguji Maki was silent for a while, then laughed: “Actually, I am very happy with my grandma, and everything will be fine. I will be as strong as my grandma. She was diagnosed with lung cancer three years ago and returned to work at the hotel. While making money and treating herself, she would always tell me, Maki, everything will be fine!”
Qingchen knew that the little girl’s life would not get better.
Lung cancer is currently one of the most difficult cancers to survive. Even the targeted drugs in the world only prolong the life of patients by a few more years, and they cannot save the advanced stage of lung cancer.
Presumably, the little girl’s grandmother, cancer cells have spread throughout the body.
At this time, the grandmother had been in a coma for 95% of the time, and the frequency and amount of food were very small. It was obvious that she had reached the end of her life.
How will an eight-year-old girl survive if her grandmother dies?
Maki Jinguji said to Qingchen: “Don’t discuss this, Ouni sauce, I paid the uncle next door to clean up the hot spring pool. Now the temperature of the hot spring is the most suitable, you can go and soak for a while. .”
“Well,” Qing Chen nodded, leaving the little girl alone in the living room.
She walked to the window again, lying on the window sill, blinking her big eyes and looking outside, where many children were frantically having snowball fights, and strange-shaped snowmen were built at the gates of the hot spring hotels.
At this time, Qingchen came out again to see this scene, Jinguji Maki looked back at him: “Oni-chan, what’s wrong?”
Qingchen looked at the figures of the snowmen outside the window, and then said to Jinguji Maki, “Make the bed.”
“Aoao, I’m sorry, I forgot, I’m really sorry,” Jinguji Maki took out the quilt from the compartment.
The bedding in the hot spring hotel is kept in the cabinet every day, and it is only taken out at night and spread on the wooden floor.
Jingu Temple Maki was paving, and suddenly noticed Qingchen’s hand, which was covered with frostbite marks.
She felt a little strange.
This brother seems to be different from others everywhere.
…
…
early morning.
Today’s Jinguji Maki woke up early, thinking that she can’t sleep late today, she wants to make breakfast for Oni-chan.
But at 7:10 in the morning, there was no one in Qingchen’s house.
Just like yesterday, the bedding was neatly folded and placed.
And a note: I’ll be back before 8 o’clock and leave me a meal.
The only difference is that the skis were taken away this time.
Jinguji Maki was a little disappointed, she always felt that no matter how hard she tried to show enthusiasm, she couldn’t melt this brother’s coldness.
She lowered her head a little discouraged.
The next moment, she put on her shabby padded clothes, opened the door of the hot spring hotel, and wanted to go to Baichuan Township to buy some fresh ingredients.

But when I saw the door, I didn’t know when a tall snowman had been piled up.
On the snowman’s face, his nose, eyes, and mouth were pasted with seaweed.
The snowmen of other people’s hot spring hotels all face outward, as if welcoming guests.
And the snowman in this hot spring hotel is facing inward, as if it belongs to Jinguji Maki alone, leaving the back to everyone passing by.
Jinguji Maki wrapped the scarf that grandma had knitted for her before and ran out.
…
…
Qingchen carried the veneer on his back and took the sightseeing bus again to the mountains of Liho Takayama. He still did not go to the ski resort, but climbed up again.
The skiers looked up to see the familiar figure, who was worried that he died in the snowy mountains last night, but he was already numb at this time.
Qingchen came to the top with a calm expression, stuck his veneer, and jumped down.
Then got stuck in the thick powder snow…
The fluffy powder wasn’t enough to support his weight, and he couldn’t ski at all!
This time it was a mistake, but it was enough to prove that powder snow really couldn’t allow him to complete the consolidation of the ice. He had to find a colder place, a place where the snow layer was more solid.
Qingchen lay silently in the snow, looking at the distant mountains.
Leaving the island country?
Compared with life and death, the assassination of the generation of God is considered a trivial matter. After all, he has to complete the promotion and return to the A02 secret military base to face a more cruel reality.
Therefore, if this place is not suitable, Qingchen must leave, nothing is more important than this.
and many more.
Looking at the scattered ridges on the distant mountains like blades, Qing Chen suddenly thought of another life-and-death test!
Ride the ridge downhill, dance on the edge of the blade!
