Chapter 37 Entering Taihang Mountain

This was a Weibo from Ms. Hong.

A straightforward message was accompanied by several beautiful pictures of landscapes, "Dear friends, I am going abroad for some time for official business. Please leave me a message if you have something necessary to do."

"Ms. Hong is going abroad on a business trip?"

Li Ping'an narrowed his eyes slightly, and then he suddenly realized something strange!

As keen as Li Ping'an, he could absolutely understand the deep meaning of this Weibo.

It must have something to do with Liu Family. They must know that he had disappeared and began to take measures.

Even Ms. Hong couldn't resist the pressure directly and resort to avoiding some risks in this way.

"D*mn it! Liu Family, do you really believe I could do nothing!?"

Li Ping'an's fists were clenched and creaked. His anger in the chest was burning like flames and even overwhelmed him.

But soon, Li Ping'an forced himself to calm down.

With his current strength, returning to Lanhai City would not play a positive role but expose himself to Liu Family.

Liu Family hated him so much that it would not be surprising if they abused him. They may even toss him into pieces and scatter his bones and ashes away!

"Liu Family, if so, you are really stimulating me to be better!"

Li Ping'an sneered.

"Now that Ms. Hong had made the decision so quickly, the situation seems to be controllable. I don't need to be too anxious! Just continue to do what I am doing! If I could find the valley mentioned by Lin Jianjia and the centurial aged Teling Herb, it wouldn't be too difficult for me to improve my strength to a greater level."

"Only when I am really powerful can I support and protect Ms. Hong's best..."

So Li Ping'an did not reply.

He knew Ms. Hong was safe, and that was enough. And with her intelligence, she would definitely use more ways to inform him of more useful information.

He only needed to do the things he was doing well and take every step steadily!

...

Early in the next morning, Li Ping'an had just come out of the space of the mysterious stone for meditation. Before he finished the bath, he was startled by the rough sound of Lin Kai's calling at the door.

"Brother Daniu, we should go!"

Li Ping'an quickly came out of the bathroom, putting on his clothes. He then put the Minotaur mask in the pocket of the combat uniform. He bought it last night. Then he quickly opened the door for the little fat boy Lin Kai.

But what made Li Ping'an slightly stunned was that Lin Kai hadn't put on his combat uniforms. He was still dressed in casual, looking careless but smart.

Lin Kai quickly understood what Li Ping'an was looking at. He scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Brother Daniu, my sister...my sister didn't allow me to follow you two. She forced me to school. So, I can only stay here. Good luck to you."

"But don't worry, Brother Daniu. My sister is also well prepared this time. There are also two former Awakening powerhouses of the Black Hawk Martial Arts Club. They will go together with you."

"By the way, Brother Daniu, those two guys are unfaithful."

"Without the training in our Black Hawk Martial Arts Club, how could they be so strong today? How did they dare to ask my sister for 50 million yuan! She has paid them all savings..."

Listening to Lin Kai, Li Ping'an also realized something.

No wonder Lin Jianjia had been so calm. It turned out that her trump card had already been prepared. She had already got connected with the veteran members of Black Hawk Martial Arts Club...

However, it didn't affect Li Ping'an too much.

On signing the contract, their responsibilities had been divided in detail. Li Ping'an only needed to complete the assignment and ensure the entire team could work together smoothly and safely. These were his responsibilities and what he needed to do.

He laughed and comforted Lin Kai. After packing up his belongings, they went to check out on the first floor and left the room together. Then they came outside the hotel.

Lin Jianjia had been waiting here for a long time.

She drove a Toyota SUV which was somewhat dilapidated. Lin Jianjia winked at Li Ping'an, motioning him to get in the car.

Li Ping'an rubbed the little fat boy's head and said with a smile, "Boy, study hard."

He didn't hesitate to get into the co-pilot with his backpack.

Lin Jianjia's suddenly frowned. Obviously, she didn't expect Li Ping'an to choose this seat.

However, she didn't say anything and waved to Lin Kai saying goodbye. Then Lin Jianjia pushed the gas pedal hard, rushing directly to the road.

Behind them, Lin Kai yelled hoarsely, "Sister, take care of yourself and come back triumphantly..."

Lin Jianjia's body was trembling slightly, but she soon stabilized and put on big sunglasses, driving directly to the fast lane out of the city.

Li Ping'an didn't want to talk too much. But until they were out of the city, Lin Jianjia didn't seem to pick up the two former powerhouses of Black Hawk Martial Arts Club. He was a little nervous and couldn't help asking.

Behind the big sunglasses were Lin Jianjia's beautiful eyes. She eye-rolled at Li Ping'an and said coldly, "They are resting at a gathering spot at the foot of Taihang Mountain. We will go directly to meet them."

"Ok..."

Li Ping'an nodded hurriedly. He wanted to ask a few more questions but still held back.

...

Although beautiful Lin Jianjia was going with him and driving for him, she was really a bit too cold. She had no more words. So Li Ping'an simply closed his eyes and rested. He didn't want to bother her.

The space in the car was not spacious, and he could smell the delicate fragrance of her. Li Ping'an's journey was therefore not boring at all. Instead, it was quite comfortable and cozy.

They didn't talk on the road.

At dusk, they two arrived at the scheduled gathering point at the lofty Taihang Mountain and joined the two former Awakening Powerhouses of Black Hawk Martial Arts Club.

Lin Jianjia had her own plan for this trip, so Li Ping'an didn't have to be worried.

Standing in this simple town that had been abandoned for so long, Li Ping'an quietly looked at the Taihang Mountains not far away. It was covered in mysterious dense fog, like a giant sleeping beast. Seeing this, Li Ping'an was silent for long.

It was the first time he had appreciated the mountain at such a close distance. It was one of the famous mountains.

Li Ping'an faintly remembered that the highest altitude of Taihang Mountain was just more than two thousand meters in the peaceful times before the New Era.

But at this time, the hideous rock was rugged, towering up into the sky with no edge within sight.

Moreover, this was only the periphery area. It was obviously more than two thousand meters!

"This should all be caused by the variation in the chaotic period before the New Era. There is no need to be hurried. I will be able to enter soon and explore more in detail..."

Li Ping'an couldn't help clenching his fist tightly.

At dinner, Li Ping'an finally met the two former Awakening powerhouses of the Black Hawk Martial Arts Club.

One of them was Ma Yuan and the other was Cui Chenggang. Both of them were in their early forties. The former was tall and burly, and the latter was stocky and athletic. They both looked very honest and easy to get along with.

And they were also at the top level of the early Awakening Stage.

Lin Jianjia did not conceal any information about Li Ping'an's strength and soon informed the two of Li Ping'an's data.

The two were a little surprised at the excellent grades Li Ping'an had achieved, as he was very young and just 21. They kept acclaiming him with the saying that "the young generation is doomed to be better than the old". And then they toasted him.

Li Ping'an thought it to be funny. If they knew his actual age and grades, what would they feel about him?

But Li Ping'an soon left this thought behind. The two must be veterans who had much experience. He could not look down upon them.

As for Li Ping'an, he could feel clearly that even though they were not as powerful as the white-haired Mr. Zhou who he met at Hanjiang City before, he still couldn't despise them.

After the great meal, both Ma Yuan and Cui Chenggang have considered Li Ping'an as close as their brother. They kept calling him "Brother Daniu" on the table.

Moreover, Cui Chenggang, who had a scar on the corner of his eye, secretly implied to Li Ping'an that if Li Ping'an wanted to join other powerful veteran teams, he could offer some help.

In this regard, Li Ping'an answered with a smile and then left it behind.

...

They four rested in this small town for one night. And in the early next morning, they started their journey into the mountains.

The towering Taihang Mountain traversed from north to south, east to west.

It was the most important mountain in Walt Country. Countless myths and legends were derived from it.

Looking at the bottom, Li Ping'an had already be astonished at this towering and majestic mountain. But it was until he started his journey that Li Ping'an found he had known almost nothing about it.

Climbing took great strength.

Fortunately, Li Ping'an's strength far exceeded that of ordinary people. And he can use the little pool water in the mysterious stone at any time.

Thanks to Li Ping'an's five-star Energy Drop as well as the reserve of pool water, he was not afraid of anyone in terms of physical strength.

He steadily kept up with the team without spending too much effort.

There were very few people in their team at this time, and everyone was carrying a lot of supplies. But Li Ping'an was still able to keep up with them.

However, it was Lin Jianjia that surprised Li Ping'an slightly. With her slender and well-proportioned body, she was able to carry more than him. And she didn't turn out to be exhausted or under too much pressure.

Li Ping'an was also secretly stunned, "This cold girl, she probably also hides some strength... And, it is very likely that she has a very strong trump card. It is even strong enough to make her confident. Otherwise, how could a tender girl like her dare to take the mission into the mountain herself with three sturdy men?"

Although the scenery in the mountains was beautiful, the journey was quite boring.

Fortunately, Ma Yuan and Cui Chenggang were leading the team. And there was also the beautiful Lin Jianjia in the team. Although they met some twists and turns along the way and encountered a few beasts at the Prospective Awakening Stage, the team easily beat them.

In the evening, the team had gone more than 85 kilometers deep into Taihang Mountain. And they camped under a slightly flat peak like a tooth.

Ma Yuan smiled and lit the fire calmly. And Cui Chenggang, as an experienced member, set up the cordon. Li Ping'an and Lin Jianjia were in charge of setting up the camp, but they had both been secretly observing the two, learning what they were doing.

But Lin Jianjia hardly communicated with Li Ping'an. Her pretty face kept calm, and no one knew what she was thinking about.

As night fell, the roar of wild beasts gradually began to increase in the originally silent mountain forest.

Soon, there were also horrible roars resounding in their ears.

Cui Chenggang found Li Ping'an was nervous. He explained with a smile, "Daniu, don't be nervous. Although these beasts are very strong, the location we chose is neither a drinking area nor a hunting area. We are in the safe area. In addition, the beasts are very sensitive. Though we are a small team, all of us are all strong. The beasts will not easily come to attack us. Sleep well tonight and work well tomorrow. Don't worry."

As he said, he looked at Lin Jianjia, who was beside him, and smiled, "Jianjia, we are not far from the destination, right?"

Lin Jianjia lightly nodded and said, "Yes." But there was no more information.

Cui Chenggang was a little embarrassed. But he quickly laughed. It seemed that he was trying to explain to Li Ping'an, "Daniu, don't be angry with her. My niece Jianjia was born with this temper. Just get used to it. Haha!" Actually, he was trying to relieve himself in this way.

Ma Yuan was also smiling.

Of course, Li Ping'an would not answer. After Cui Chenggang finished speaking, he smiled respectfully and thanked the two for the valuable knowledge on the wild journey they taught him along the way.

It also made the two feel happy. And the laughter sometimes floated among the cliffs.

After eight o'clock, they began to determine the night watching plan.

Cui Chenggang smiled and said, "Ma Yuan, isn't it unnecessary? We are all elders. Tonight, we two will watch the night. Let these two little guys have a good rest. Maybe there will be fighting tomorrow, and they must rest enough."

Ma Yuan also nodded with a smile.

Li Ping'an just wanted to speak, saying that he was a young man with good physical strength and wanted to watch the night.

At this time, Lin Jianjia calmly said, "Uncle Cui, Uncle Ma, you have a hard day today. Let me and Li Daniu watch the night. We are young and have good physical strength. And if we need to battle tomorrow, we must rely on you. You must rest well."
