Early the next morning, everyone got up early again. Today’s task was to follow the children from the mountain village to school. Since the road was very long, everyone got up very early.

The group left when the sky was just getting light. A row of a dozen children of various ages gathered together, carrying homemade cloth school bags from their parents as they lined up to go to school.

The place where these children go to school must pass through a very dangerous mountain path.

It is a mountain road close to a cliff, the narrowest part is only two feet wide. The program crew were very nervous walking through it.

When filming the group walking on this road, Su Jie and Su Jinjiang were so scared they didn’t dare to step forward. Not only them, even Xi Shuang, Wang Hanshao, and Xie WenAn, the three men, were trembling and didn’t dare to step forward.

The main point is that this place is truly dangerous, unlike playing thrilling games where safety measures are taken, although it looks thrilling, it feels safe at heart.

But this place is different, it’s just such a narrow road without even a handrail, one side is empty, in the dim light you can’t see how deep the cliff is.

In such a place with no safety measures, if someone accidentally steps into the void, the consequences are unimaginable, which is the reason why everyone is especially afraid to proceed.

Su Jie held onto one side of the cliff wall, feeling her legs trembling, she looked at Wenren Shuangshuang with a distressed face: "Sister Shuangshuang, I don’t think I can make it, this part of the road is too scary."

Wenren Shuangshuang looked at the children who were laughing and joking as they walked over the path, she helplessly held Su Jie’s hand to comfort her.

"Don’t be afraid, hold my hand, I’ll take you across, you see these kids walk back and forth here every day, aren’t they fine?"

Su Jie looked at those children walking past with calm faces and even turning back to look at her with curious eyes, her face turned red, feeling a bit embarrassed that she was not even as brave as the children.

Encouraging herself inwardly, Su Jie, with her heart trembling, gingerly placed her foot on the narrowest part of the path, almost scraping forward bit by bit.

Su Jie clung to the cliff wall with one hand and tightly held onto Wenren Shuangshuang’s hand with the other, utterly petrified, with Wenren Shuangshuang trying her best to protect her.

In the end, Su Jie half lay on Wenren Shuangshuang’s body and was dragged across by her. Afterwards, Xi Shuang, Wang Hanshao, and Xie WenAn, these three big men, also clung to one side of the cliff wall and slowly scraped by.

When it was Su Jinjiang’s turn, she originally didn’t dare to go over, after much fuss, she almost squatted with two staff members protecting her from front and back to get through this particularly narrow section of the road.

Once Wenren Shuangshuang and the others got through, the filming crew scrambled for quite some time, the cameraman didn’t even dare to carry his camera, fearing that carrying heavy equipment on his shoulder would cause him to lose balance and accidentally slip.

This section of road was walked through with hearts pounding, it was a relief when everyone finally made it through, their adrenaline spiked, and those who were sleepy from getting up early were thoroughly awakened after crossing.

Actually, not only were the ones walking scared witless, but the ones watching were also on edge, just fearing someone might carelessly step into the void.

"I suddenly feel so sad seeing this, such a place makes us feel terrified, yet these children face such dangers to go to school every day.

The pursuit of education is so difficult for these children in the mountains, yet they tirelessly persist, suddenly I feel so ashamed, I won’t complain about the monotony of studying anymore."

"I don’t know why my nose is tingling, this kind of life is unimaginable for us city dwellers, where is this place, I want to donate here."

The road afterward, although not as perilous as the cliffside, was still difficult to tread, truly giving everyone a glimpse of what a tortuous path is.

"Ah——"

A piercing scream suddenly echoed, startling the group en route and making them shiver, all turning to look in the direction of the scream.

It turned out there was a snake that suddenly appeared not far from Su Jinjiang. Seeing a snake in front of her, Su Jinjiang was so startled that she immediately screamed.

Upon seeing the snake, everyone’s expressions changed. Although it’s an outdoor program, to ensure safety, staff would typically scout the environment beforehand, creatures like snakes should have been dealt with ahead of time.

It’s unclear if a staff member was negligent, missing a snake slipping through. This snake looked colorful and no one knew if it was poisonous.

Snakes naturally give people the creeps, not just girls, many men fear snakes too. The sudden appearance of a snake startled not only Su Jinjiang but many of those nearby as well.

Su Jinjiang was particularly afraid of snakes, seeing one appear suddenly in front of her, she was petrified, her first reaction was to scream, the second was to try and retreat.

The surrounding staff scrambled, picking up sticks and stones to rescue Su Jinjiang, but before the adults could act, a small black hand reached over and grabbed the snake at its vital spot.

It was a little boy about eight or nine years old with a backpack. The boy picked up the snake and with everyone’s dumbstruck gaze, skillfully flicked it, instantly making the snake’s body go limp.

The boy excitedly waved the snake in his hand, showing off to his friends: "I caught a snake, mom can roast snake meat when we get back."

After saying that, the boy balled up the snake and stuffed it into the gap in his backpack, clearly planning to carry it with him, calmly indicating it wasn’t his first time doing this, with the surrounding kids looking at him with envy.

A staff member immediately panicked, somehow producing a handful of candies, he asked the boy, "Little friend, would you trade your snake for these candies?"

The staff member meant well, not knowing whether the snake was poisonous, the child casually stuffed it into his backpack, the snake’s life force being strong, if it were poisonous and bit the child...

To the mountain kids, a snake isn’t really anything precious. Seeing someone offering candy in exchange, the boy readily took the snake out of his backpack again and handed it to the staff member.

The man nervously held the snake, completely at a loss, until the boy, seeing the man’s stiff demeanor, kindly explained.

"Uncle, are you scared? No need to be, my mom says this kind of snake is a cauliflower snake, not poisonous and doesn’t bite, tastes quite nice too."

The staff member’s mouth twitched, entirely uncomforted, a snake, whether poisonous or not, was equally frightening to him.

Eventually, the snake was released a fair distance away, and a brief lesson was given about the importance of snakes to environmental protection.

For example, rural areas especially plagued by mice and field rats harmful to crops, snakes are their natural predators.
