Chapter 020 Reservoir Fun
After watching the cars turn the corner and go up the mountain, Chen Jue slowly followed behind.
I had just finished dinner and couldn't do any strenuous exercise. Although I had digested the food at home, it was still a bit difficult for me to run up the mountain.
After walking slowly for about ten minutes, when they arrived at the temple at the entrance of the reservoir, Chen Jue saw the SUVs parked side by side in the temple courtyard.
All the people who got off the car were middle-aged men in their forties or fifties. Only two girls who were about the same age as Chen Jue were shouting and taking pictures. They were obviously quite excited about spending the night in the mountains.
"Baby! Stop taking pictures and help me carry these boxes over." The man who asked for directions shouted.
The girl who was taking pictures responded, "Got it, Dad!" and then went over to help get the things.
As for the people in the other cars, they were each carrying camping tents, fishing rods, picnic stoves, food ingredients, drinking water, etc. In short, they were very well prepared and it was obvious that they were very experienced.
Chen Jue observed the temple curiously as he passed by, then turned to a small path on the side and walked towards the embankment.
But before he had taken a few steps, the middle-aged tourists behind him who were carrying things and panting shouted, "Little brother! Come over and help!"
Chen Jue stopped and looked back at the bags these people were carrying. There were indeed a lot of them.
So, with the mentality of leaving a good impression, I went forward to move two heavy boxes and pointed out a place where they could camp: "There is an open space under the dam over there where you can camp, fish and make a fire. I'll help you carry some things over there first."
"Okay! Thank you, little brother! I'll transfer some money to you later as a reward for your hard work." The middle-aged man with a gold watch thanked with a smile.
"No, no, it's just a short distance, no need to spend money."
After saying that, Chen Jue walked away quickly with swift steps. In a flash, he had disappeared from the path, leaving the fishermen who were still pushing flatbed carts and carrying large and small bags in amazement.
"This young man has great stamina! He can walk so fast while carrying so many things!"
"He must live in the countryside and come here often to exercise! He is indeed better than us old antiques." Several middle-aged men started discussing.
They probably couldn't have imagined that Chen Jue actually had an 8-pound sandbag tied to his body.
Of course, the reason why Chen Jue could walk so fast was not only because he was familiar with the reservoir environment, but also because his various attributes had been greatly improved.
Just take his 1.57-meter physique as an example, which is enough for him to beat these city dwellers who live a comfortable life.
…
After moving the boxes of things to a place suitable for camping, Chen Jue went back and picked up the group of more than ten tourists.
Although these people were fully equipped and had good experience in wild fishing and camping, it was obvious that they lacked exercise in their daily lives. They were pushing a cart with a flatbed and carrying such a small amount of things, but they were all out of breath after walking less than three or four hundred meters.
Even if he exercises occasionally, he cannot be compared with a little pervert like Chen Jue.
Especially the two girls in their 20s who kept complaining on the side. It was obvious that they seldom came to such a weedy rural place.
On the other hand, after Chen Jue moved several large boxes of things over, he actually turned back to help. This alone was enough to show that his physical strength was far beyond that of ordinary people.
It took more than 10 minutes to lead all these people to the pitch-black camping spot. After watching the fishermen set up lights, pitch tents, put up canopies, and make fires for a while, Chen Jue said goodbye and turned around to go to the reservoir dam not far away.
It is good to help others, but you must not forget your own business.
"Fishing and barbecuing, how can it be as fun as practicing boxing and martial arts?"
In the middle of the embankment, enjoying the cool breeze and after removing the weights on his body, Chen Jue began to perform a few sets of boat punches as if no one was around.
The embankment is about 300 meters away from the camping site in a straight line, and there are downlights on the dam. People with sharp eyes can see at a glance that Chen Jue is doing some kind of exercise on the embankment.
However, the dozen or so tourists were obviously busy with their own things and didn't look over here.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the tents and marquees in the campsite were all set up, and the bonfire began to burn, and Chen Jue felt a vague sense of being watched.
"Is it my illusion?" Chen Jue was a little puzzled.
But this is not his illusion!
At the camping site, a middle-aged tourist was holding a telescope and staring at Chen Jue on the embankment for a long time: "Oh my! This guy can practice martial arts!"
"What? Practicing martial arts ?"
"Does anyone still practice this these days?"
"It's really strange! Third brother, let me see!"
Several middle-aged men also found it interesting and took turns using binoculars to watch Chen Jue performing boxing routines in the camera.
“Tsk tsk!”
"He's really practicing martial arts!"
“I didn’t expect there are such young people in the countryside!”
"Just now I noticed that this young man has great physical strength. He even helped us carry things. It turns out he is a Kung Fu practitioner." The group of people started talking at once, chatting and laughing, finding it very novel.
But this freshness comes and goes quickly.
In their view, practicing martial arts is just like going to the gym to exercise. They are both ways to keep fit and there is nothing big about it.
There are a few of them who occasionally practice health-preserving Tai Chi, but they haven't seen any real skills develop from it.
So after looking through the telescope for a while, they got bored and started fishing, making a fire, and preparing a midnight snack, each going about their own business.
However, the two young girls in the group couldn't stay there. After playing in the camp for a while, they decided to climb up the embankment together to see the scenery.
Seeing that Chen Jue was practicing boxing as if no one was around and was a little obsessed with it, the two young girls watched and did not come over to disturb him. They just picked up their phones, thinking it was interesting and fun, so they took a short video of Chen Jue practicing boxing and sent it to their girlfriends group.
"Look! There's a handsome country boy who knows martial arts!"
"Are you interested? I'll get the phone number for you!"
There was a sudden commotion in the WeChat group. Some were joking, some were encouraging people to go up and ask for their phone numbers, and some were saying that the boy looked quite energetic, but in short, he was not handsome at all.
After all, Chen Jue was still obese, with a small belly and a little fat on his face. Although all his attributes had improved a lot, he was still a long way from returning to his youthful appearance.
Seeing someone was taking pictures of him secretly, Chen Jue immediately stopped, glanced at the two girls of the same age who were dressed innocently, smiled at them, turned around and walked down the gate steps on the other side, then jumped onto the boat in front of the two girls.
Chen Jue decided to give it a try, on a night with low visibility, to see if he could go to the middle of the reservoir to practice the Eight Immortals Posture!
