Volume 6: Summer Chapter 55 Whirlpool
"Xiao Nuo, come over and help." Wu Yulan shouted to Guan Nuo.
"Coming," Guan Nuo responded, and then he said to Tang Butian, "Then, then Chief, I'll be over there."
"good."
…
A black heavy truck drove to the top of the mountain. Jiang You walked a few steps to the side to make some space.
The wheels rolled over the grass without leaving a trace. Jiang You watched the truck stop in front of the small building. Several people in dark blue work clothes gathered around it and boxes of goods were unloaded.
The sun is very strong and shines straight down.
Jiang You glanced at the sky, took out a candy box from his bag, threw two mints into his mouth, then walked towards the road again and stopped only when he reached the edge of the cliff.
The road twisted in my field of vision.
A car suddenly lost control and tilted to the side...
…
Ji Xiaozhen was sitting in the passenger seat.
The car suddenly shook, and before she could react, it slid uncontrollably to one side. She turned around and saw Lin Shunan pulling up the handbrake and slamming the steering wheel...
It's no use.
The car body kept getting closer to the edge of the road.
…
"What did you see?" A cold voice sounded in Jiang You's ears.
Jiang You stretched out his right hand and grabbed Tang Butian’s left wrist.
Countless points of light suddenly hit Tang Butian's eyes, and she subconsciously closed her eyes.
Jiang You pushed his glasses with his left hand and said, "This road is a bit ugly."
Tang Butian slowly opened her eyes. The sun shone into the undulating forest. She saw hundreds of dark whirlpools floating in the air. The spiritual energy was wrapped in the whirlpools. The car driving from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain moved along the edge of the whirlpool. When it approached the center of the whirlpool, it was thrown into another adjacent whirlpool above. It kept going up like this and finally reached the top of the mountain.
Tang Butian noticed that one of the whirlpools was collapsing - brown mist mixed with spiritual energy quickly dissipated from the whirlpool, and it had almost lost its shape.
There is a car in it.
When it completely dissipates, the car will be...
She said, “That car…”
"Can you fly a sword?" Jiang You asked.
"Can."
Jiang You said: "Cut off the connection between the vortex and the car."
Tang Butian clenched the wooden sword.
"Then move the car downwards or upwards, as you like," Jiang You made a sword-wielding gesture, "and hit the car into the nearby whirlpool."
"What if it breaks?"
"The institute's car shouldn't break down that easily, right?"
Tang Butian was a little hesitant.
"If it falls, the car will definitely fall apart," Jiang You looked at Tang Butian's profile, "When you fought with Shengshao this morning, did you get some idea of the rules hidden in this wooden sword?"
…
"Teacher Ji, what's the situation now?"
Monk Ren's voice came from the headset. Ji Xiaozhen looked at the mountains and forests gradually becoming clearer outside the window. She said, "Prepare to land. Are you ready down there?"
The car body suddenly shook again.
The wooden sword flew out of Tang Butian's hand, it broke through the air, the sunlight chased after it, and pierced into the vortex that was about to collapse.
The car body began to fall.
"Taoist Qingyang and I have arrived at the predicted landing point. Now..."
Ji Xiaozhen was listening to the voice in the headset, and suddenly she saw a wooden sword passing by the car window.
It was all white outside the window.
Every part of the car was shaking and making harsh noises, as if the car would fall apart in the next second.
And the next second...
Ji Xiaozhen and Lin Shunan's bodies tilted to one side along the car, the white mist disappeared, and the green mountain cliffs retreated rapidly downwards.
The car is flying upwards.
The wooden sword hit the trunk of the car, causing a dent in the body of the car, but it did not break apart.
"Teacher Ji, there is a way." Lin Shunan said, gripping the steering wheel tightly.
The car fell into the vortex above, and after shaking slightly, it was carried towards the center of the vortex.
Ji Xiaozhen heaved a sigh of relief. She opened her hands, her palms were sweaty, and she said, "Brother Ren, we are back on the road. You can go back to work."
…
After helping Wu Yulan carry a box of information into the building and putting it away, Guan Nuo walked out of the small building. He looked around and didn't find Tang Butian. He asked Zhu Wen who was unloading the truck, "Uncle Wen, have you seen the section chief?"
"I didn't see it," Zhu Wen took an iron box and put it on the ground. He pointed in the direction of the road and said, "Maybe he went over there."
Guan Nuo looked in the direction Zhu Wen pointed, and it seemed that there was indeed someone standing there, but it was blocked by the trees and could not be seen clearly.
"I'll go take a look." He walked over.
After walking for a few minutes, he saw Jiang You and Tang Butian standing on the edge of the cliff. His eyes fell on Tang Butian's left wrist.
Tang Butian stretched out his right hand towards the sun.
The wooden sword flew across the sky and returned to her hand.
Jiang You let go of his hand and took a step to the side. He saw Guan Nuo standing behind them from the corner of his eye and asked, "Are you done?"
"No, I, I came to take a look." Guan Nuo said.
With a clang, the car drove up.
Ji Xiaozhen saw Jiang You and Tang Butian standing on the edge of the cliff, and the wooden sword in Tang Butian's hand.
"Drive over there and stop for a while." She told Lin Shunan.
The car turned a corner, drove forward for a while and then stopped.
Guan Nuo saw the dented part of the car body and he took a few quick steps to the side of the car.
After Ji Xiaozhen pushed the door and got out of the car, Guan Nuo said, " Teacher Ji, what happened?"
"It's just an accident, nothing." Ji Xiaozhen said, and then she walked towards Tang Butian and Jiang You. "Chief Tang, thank you for your help," then she looked at Jiang You and said, "You are Jiang You, right?"
"I am, who are you?" Jiang You said.
"You can just call me Teacher Ji," Ji Xiaozhen turned her head and glanced at Lin Shunan. She said, "He is my apprentice, Lin Shunan."
Jiang You looked forward and saw a man about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old standing by the car door. He was wearing a white coat and had delicate features.
Lin Shunan walked up to Ji Xiaozhen and greeted Tang Butian, Jiang You and Guan Nuo.
After watching them exchange pleasantries, Ji Xiaozhen said to Tang Butian and Jiang You, "Do you want to go to the lounge in the building to rest for a while?"
"No need," Tang Butian refused. She said, "Go and get busy."
"Okay, then I'll formally thank you later," she turned to Guan Nuo and said, "Xiao Nuo, come over and help me."
"OK."
Guan Nuo walked back.
Ji Xiaozhen and Lin Shunan drove the car to the door of the small building.
After the car stopped, they took out a black metal box about one meter long from the trunk. The box seemed very heavy, so Guan Nuo and Lin Shunan lifted it up one after the other and followed Ji Xiaozhen into the small building.
