Volume 6: Summer Chapter 56: Going Down the Mountain
The following cars drove up the mountain smoothly one by one.
Tang Butian turned around and looked at Jiang You, who was sitting under the shade of a tree not far away, smoking and playing with his phone.
Jiang You raised his head, and Tang Butian slowly walked to his side. He asked, "Are you bored?"
Tang Butian sat down against the tree trunk and said, "They were not injured when they got out of the car. The equipment in the car and the material of the car body are not simple."
Jiang You put out his cigarette and said, "I really admire them. If I were in their place, I would definitely vomit if I got off the car."
Tang Butian turned to look at Jiang You, "So if I don't do anything, nothing will happen to them."
"I guess so."
Tang Butian stretched out her hand towards him, "Sugar."
Jiang You took out the candy box from her bag and poured two candies into her hand.
Lightly sweet and slightly cool.
She said, "When Lang Xing gets married, please bring a gift for me, and don't say it's from me."
"Okay." Jiang You agreed.
"She is luckier than her senior."
Tang Butian lowered her eyes, and her dense eyelashes cast shadows on her eyelids.
"Should we help move things?" Jiang You asked.
"I don't want to go."
"Then shall we go back?"
Tang Butian looked at the gauze-like clouds in the blue sky and said, "I don't want to leave."
"Then let's go borrow a car and take it down the mountain?"
Tang Butian pointed in the direction of the road and said, "I want to jump into the whirlpool and then jump down the mountain."
"That's fine. I'll go down and we'll meet at the bottom of the mountain."
"I can't see it."
“I’m afraid of heights.”
Tang Butian looked at him and said, "I want to give it a try."
"If I get scared, I might lose sight of the situation and we will fall."
“When I was in the mountains, I jumped around a lot.”
"Do you think you are a rabbit?"
Tang Butian continued to look at him, her eyes sparkling.
"My heart isn't in good condition either, and my heartbeat is irregular," Jiang You put his right hand on his chest, feeling that his heartbeat was too fast. "I'm old, and I've been soaking wolfberries in honey every day lately, and I can't take it anymore. This kind of stimulating exercise is not suitable for an old person like me."
Tang Butian stood up and walked towards the road.
"What are you doing?" Jiang You called out to her.
"I want to give it a try," Tang Butian repeated, "You go down the mountain."
"Why are you so playful, kid?" Jiang You sighed and said, "Wait a minute."
Tang Butian stopped and turned to look at Jiang You.
The corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
The mountain breeze blew her skirt and hair.
"Wait a minute, I need to prepare myself mentally," Jiang You sighed, and threw two candies into his mouth. "Bungee jumping requires a rope."
"I will protect you." Tang Butian said.
Jiang You stood up, took a few steps forward, and looked down. He felt his legs go weak. "I'm really afraid of heights."
"oh."
…
The space inside the small building is much larger than it appears from the outside.
Guan Nuo and Lin Shunan followed Ji Xiaozhen and moved the box to the third underground floor. After the door was opened, Ji Xiaozhen drew a few strokes in the air, and Guan Nuo saw the ground split apart on both sides, revealing a concave square hole. He and Lin Shunan lifted the metal box and put it into the hole.
Just the right size.
Ji Xiaozhen drew a few more times, and the ground began to close.
After the ground returned to its original state, Guan Nuo asked Ji Xiaozhen, "I saw traces of the car. Did you encounter any danger just now?"
Ji Xiaozhen said: "There were some unexpected events."
Guan Nuo asked: "Were they attacked?"
"No," Ji Xiaozhen denied, "That road was built with spiritual power. Just now, the spiritual power fluctuations of Lao Jinshan changed, causing part of the road to collapse."
"What about the marks on the car?"
"Section Chief Tang used a wooden sword to get the car back on the road," Ji Xiaozhen thought for a moment and said, "She is quite strong. The material of the car body is very special. There are also barriers and spiritual power equipment inside and outside the car body. Ordinary strength cannot cause damage to the car body."
Guan Nuo suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."
"Section Chief Tang and Jiang You have a good relationship?" Ji Xiaozhen asked.
"It's pretty good, isn't it?" Guan Nuo avoided Ji Xiaozhen's sight and said, "Teacher Ji, I'll go outside and continue moving."
"Go ahead."
Ji Xiaozhen watched Guan Nuo walk out of the basement. She said to Lin Shunan, "Go check why the spiritual power fluctuation just now caused a problem."
"OK."
Guan Nuo walked into the elevator, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and when he found there was no signal, he put the phone back. At this time, the elevator door opened. After he stepped out, he found that it was not the floor he wanted to go to. He reached the seventh floor and realized that he had just pressed the wrong floor.
Just as I was about to walk back into the elevator, the door closed again.
He pressed the button and began to wait.
He heard some noises.
Turn around.
"Is it you?" he said.
A barefoot girl wearing a loose light blue shirt stood not far away.
"Are you a staff member here?" Guan Nuo asked.
The girl looked at him with a confused expression.
"Do you remember me?" Guan Nuo walked up to the girl. "I saw you last time you were sitting on the windowsill."
The girl didn't react.
Guan Nuo suddenly reached out and grabbed the girl's hand.
The hands are very thin.
It's hot.
Guan Nuo heaved a sigh of relief and loosened his hand. “I’m sorry, I just thought you were…”
The girl suddenly turned around and ran inside.
"Wait!" Guan Nuo chased after him.
The elevator door opened and closed again.
Guan Nuo chased the girl inside. After chasing for a while, the girl flashed into an office. Guan Nuo followed her in, but found that there was nothing in the office. He looked around in confusion, then walked the window, which was closed.
He glanced out the window.
The staff were busy shuttling between boxes. He exhaled, his expression blank for a moment, then he scratched his hair, walked out of the office, took the elevator downstairs, walked into the crowd, and started to help move things.
…
After more than ten minutes of psychological preparation, Jiang You walked to the edge of the cliff. He looked down, and then a white hand stretched out in front of him. After he grabbed it, he turned his head to look at Tang Butian and earnestly warned her, "You have to hold on to me tightly, understand?"
"Know."
“You can never let go.”
"good."
"Our behavior is very similar to..."
"Resembles what?" Tang Butian asked.
"Nothing." Jiang You took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let's get started."
Tang Butian saw the floating whirlpools again. She estimated the direction and distance, pulled Jiang You forward for a short distance, then jumped high forward. After drawing an arc in the air, she landed on the edge of the first whirlpool. The surging spiritual energy in the whirlpool suddenly hit them.
She felt dizzy.
Just when she was about to pull Jiang You closer, she was hugged. The flesh pads behind her were very soft, and the spiritual energy around her seemed to become docile .
"It makes sense that being fatter will help stabilize the chassis." She heard Jiang You's voice ringing in her ears.
They followed the vortex into the center.
Then, thrown out.
The mountain wind whistled in her ears.
They fell into the second vortex, bounced up, and then the third, the fourth...
