Early the next morning, at dawn, Cheng Youquan and the others had packed their things and went downstairs to meet Lao Chen.
They came here just for fun, and they didn't prepare any equipment for outdoor adventures. At most, they brought a change of clothes, as casually as if they were traveling.
Therefore, even if a large amount of shopping was done one night in advance, not much useful equipment could be added, only food, drinking water and the like.
But this is actually not a big problem. After all, Lao Chen didn't expect to go too deep when he took them there this time. At most, they would just drive around the outer area, and they would be back in the afternoon at most. Just think of it as a day off and go fishing in the surrounding suburbs.
"It's not too early now. By the time we get there, it will probably be past ten o'clock. Let's go quickly."
Old Chen rolled open the car window and motioned for the three of them to get in the car.
He was driving a relatively large off-road vehicle, which was quite suitable for this journey. After all, the place they went to was in the suburbs, and some areas did not even have paved roads. If it had been an ordinary private car, it would have been difficult. It's really hard to drive.
"It's only around seven o'clock now, isn't it just over twenty kilometers? Why does it take so long...?"
Cheng Youquan grumbled.
Their trip plan this time is one day, leaving early and returning late.
If calculated according to this standard, the actual time spent exploring the Fairy Mountain would only be a short while, which was completely different from what they originally thought.
Old Chen in front heard his words and explained:
"Young man, there's nothing we can do about it. It's not like you don't know the conditions on that road. They all pass through rural fields. If you can get there before noon, it's already pretty good."
"By the way, I also know that there is a farmhouse over there that specializes in entertaining these days. We can also have lunch there..."
"..."
As an experienced driver, as soon as Lao Chen touched the steering wheel, he couldn't help but fall into the old habit of nagging. Along the way, he vividly told a few people about his experiences in the area, and the time was not too difficult. Just arrived at the destination.
As Lao Chen said before, it is really difficult to walk all the way here. Most of them are country roads. In addition, it has just rained, and the road is very muddy, making it even harder to walk.
Simply, they arrived before noon and successfully had lunch in a small village.
Here, Cheng Youquan and the others met many explorers who sneaked over like them. However, neither of them said hello or exchanged words after meeting. Instead, they left in a hurry after lunch.
As if they had a tacit understanding, they subconsciously moved in different directions, and you could even feel a trace of hostility in the air.
Perhaps subconsciously, these explorers have regarded those "peers" as competitors.
After all, there are only so many celestial beings. If others take them away, then you will lose something. Of course, it is impossible not to conflict with it.
In this way, a few people set off on the road again. This village was already the closest to the fairy mountain. Further ahead, it was really deep mountains and old forests, without any human habitation.
Inside the room, Liu Lu was cleaning up the food that the guests had just finished, still humming a tune, with a happy look on her face.
She had temporarily lost her source of income because her live broadcast room was banned, and she was hesitant about whether to switch to another platform and resume her old business.
However, she never expected that the sudden appearance of this fairy mountain would actually bring her a considerable amount of income.
The group of people who claimed to be the Foreign Ministry previously said that the vicinity of the village would be a key protection target, so they should not be afraid and just stay here with peace of mind.
Initially, the villagers were a little worried that the strange beasts in the mountains would come out to eat people, but later, after seeing the extraordinary magical powers of these people, everyone settled down.
Liu Lu was even more surprised.
All of this is just like in the book. Not only are there strange creatures in this world, but there are also some beings with extraordinary power hidden among humans, who are silently protecting them in the dark.
However, accidents are accidents, and surprises are surprises, but life has to be lived.
When Liu Lu was worrying about what was going to happen next, she suddenly discovered that there had been an increase in the number of strangers coming to the village recently.
At the beginning, people came to her one after another to ask if there was a restaurant or any other place here, and some even wanted to make a request to stay overnight.
But in a small village like this, where would there be any restaurants?
Suddenly, Liu Lu had an idea and thought of a way to open a farmhouse.
Now that business is coming to your doorstep, how can you make up for it?
Unexpectedly, in just three or four days, she had already earned thousands of dollars, which was something she had never dared to imagine before.
And for those explorers, they have paid tens of thousands in fares, so why do they care about this little food money?
After all, if you can find a small restaurant in a place like this, even if it is a bit expensive, there is nothing you can do about it. It is better than going hungry.
Cheng Youquan and others, who were already heading towards the Immortal Mountain, probably didn't know that the actions they thought were hidden had actually already come into the sight of the Irregularity Department.
The village they passed through was naturally the place where Ye Yunxiu settled some time ago.
Now, with the support of the Covenant's black technology, how could the Abnormal Ministry not know about these "explorers" who sneaked around the road.
Being able to let these people come over is, of course, their acquiescence.
There is a saying that blocking is worse than sparing.
Rather than letting those curious guys enter the Fairy Mountain through other means, it is better to give them a way to gather on their own and move under their own noses, which is safer.
Moreover, the Star Alliance's next plan also needs some witnesses to ensure that the incident spreads in a more natural way.
Of course, in addition to this small village, there are also people coming from other locations in the Fairy Mountain.
There are no villages in those places, and they are all in the wilderness. In addition, the area is huge, and even the Foreign Ministry cannot take care of them all, so they can only secretly increase the "propaganda" here to let more people from here. Village passes.
The wild beasts around the mountain have basically been wiped out easily. Almost all the carnivorous animals have been captured in the Third Research Institute. There are only some gentle herbivorous animals left, which will not cause anything. Danger.
At this moment, the off-road vehicle has reached the edge of the mountain. It is obvious that there is no road here. Further forward, there is a gradual slope up the mountain. If you want to continue, you must get off the car and move forward.
"Brothers, look, it's too late to get through. How about we try in another direction?"
Lao Chen pointed to the hillside in front of him and said.
His plan was the same as before. In the name of adjusting the direction, he would take these guys around here for an afternoon and then call it a day and turn back, safe and secure.
However, several young people have finally reached this point, and they are not willing to stop there.
At the beginning, they sat stupidly in the car waiting for Lao Chen to find another direction, but eventually they couldn't sit still anymore. Wang Zinan was the first to speak:
"Master Chen, there's no way we can continue like this. There doesn't seem to be any roads in this mountain. How about you open the car door and the three of us walk over there to take a look?"
When Old Chen heard this, he quickly shook his head and said:
"Young man, it's not that I don't want you to go down. It's really too dangerous here. We have to find a better place. Otherwise, what will you do if you encounter a wild beast? Who can save you then?"
However, when the three of them arrived, they were not willing to give up easily. Even if you talked to him, they all expressed that they wanted to get off the car and go to the mountain to see the situation.
Later, the anger between the two parties gradually increased, and the more they talked, the more excited they became. Lao Chen simply slapped the steering wheel and said angrily:
"If you say no, you can't! I am the driver and I am responsible for you. We agreed before we came here that we would just sit in the car and not go out and run around. Why have you changed your mind now? I won't agree to it! "
Cheng Youquan also patted the seat hard and said angrily:
"You don't agree? Why don't you agree? We are passengers, not your prisoners. What right do you have to prevent us from getting off the bus? You are illegally detaining me!"
Seeing the quarrel between the two parties getting more and more fierce, Wang Zinan quickly spoke up to smooth things over:
"Okay, okay, everyone, please give me some respect and stop arguing!"
"Master Chen, I understand your worries. Aren't you just afraid that we will be in danger? I promise you, we will get out of the car and take a look nearby. We will never run far away or leave your sight!"
"And we've been walking here for so long and we haven't seen an animal. Maybe there aren't any wild beasts at all."
"Let's do this. We promise you now that even if we are in danger, it is on our own initiative and we will never be blamed on you. What do you think?"
When Old Chen heard this, he rolled his eyes and laughed:
"You said it doesn't matter if you have nothing to do with me? If something really happens and I'm held accountable, how can I possibly hide away? I'm naive!"
"Hey! Why are you like this? Emotions are really restricting our personal freedom, right? I'm asking you to get us out of the car immediately. If you don't open the door, don't blame me for calling the police to arrest you!"
"..."
In this way, the two sides argued for a while, and finally ended up with Lao Chen's compromise.
After all, if three young and strong young men were determined to go out, he would naturally be unable to stop them.
Finally, Lao Chenrang recorded a video with several people.
The content of the video is that they insisted on getting out of the car despite the driver's obstruction, and even caused a physical conflict.
Due to safety concerns, he had no choice but to open the car door and let them out, and those people also promised that if any accidents happened later, it would have nothing to do with him, Lao Chen.
The three teenagers were also so angry that they had to get out of the car to take a look, even if it was just to fight for a moment, thus directly proving the recording of the video.
With such a video statement, Lao Chen felt relieved.
He looked at the backs of several people entering the jungle and sneered in his heart.
"I've never seen these idiots so eager to die. They only have a good day, and they have to come to a place like this for excitement. We'll see how you die later."
He was also very depressed. The previous two customers were very sensible and could understand the pros and cons after a few words of persuasion. Unlike them, who were as stubborn as a cow and refused to listen to persuasion.
"These guys don't think they can solve the problem with a sliding shovel when they encounter a beast, right? Tsk tsk..."
Not far away, Cheng Youquan and the others had already stepped into the woods. Their original anger had been gradually forgotten as they went deeper into the woods.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never believe that there was such a place in the world.
It is different from any forest that I have ever seen. The average height of the trees here is at least twenty or thirty meters. Each one is like a giant pillar, making several people feel like they are in it, as if they have arrived. Prehistoric dinosaur world.
"There...are there really no dinosaurs here...?"
Liu Hai couldn't help but asked what was on his mind.
"What are you thinking about? How long have the dinosaurs been extinct? The air environment on our Aqua Blue Planet does not allow them to survive..."
Cheng Youquan was obviously a little guilty. He talked about a lot of popular science, from the size of dinosaurs to the environment they lived in and their needs for the current environment.
But before he could finish speaking, he heard a sudden "gurgling" sound coming from the woods around him. The sound sounded very ethereal and could not be made by any existing creature at all. , at least based on their knowledge, they couldn’t imagine anything that would scream like this one.
"GuluGulu~"
The cry got closer again, and it seemed as if it was approaching them. It seemed that it was already close.
"Then, what is that...?"
Liu Hai took a few steps back nervously, only to feel that his calves suddenly started to tremble.
"No, I don't know...it seems to be some kind of animal...?"
Wang Zinan swallowed, and big drops of sweat rolled down his face.
Although they had insisted on coming here before, it was probably because the attraction of the Fairy Mountain was so great that they couldn't resist the temptation and had to get off the car.
But that doesn't mean they are stupid.
The kind of sound in front of you can be seen from its volume alone. The animal that can make it must not be too small.
"Shashasha~"
As the trees shook, a pure white figure appeared in front of them.
"Yo yo yo~"
The figure jumped several meters high and suddenly landed less than ten meters in front of the three of them, looking at everyone with wide eyes.
