C535 Preparing to Ascend the Mountain
Zhao Tang looked confused. He turned around to look at the tent that had disappeared into the horizon. "Why is that herdsman congratulating Brother Chu? Or rather, what is his relationship with Brother Chu?"
Qin Sitong also had some doubts. "Until now, I have not thought of Mr. Herdsman. Why did he do this?"
They could not figure it out, but in the end, their gazes fell on Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu then crushed the paper and bounced it away. He did not stop, and even seemed to be speeding up.
"Unless these two poems aren't congratulatory words at all."
"What do you mean?" Qin Sitong was surprised.
Zhang Chu shrugged. "If I am not wrong, these two poems represent the general location of Realm of Secret. Do you remember what Shen Lang said before? The general direction of Realm of Secret's plateau is in the southwest direction. Combined with these two poems, we can basically conclude that the so-called Plateau Domain is the world-famous Himalayas! "
Zhao Tang nodded his head repeatedly. "That's right! But I still don't understand why the herdsman, who is a herdsman, would help us. "
After Zhang Chu's advice, Qin Sitong had realized something and came to a realization. "It's not that the herdsman wanted to help us, but Shen Lang wanted to help us."
"That's right. Other than Shen Lang, I can't think of a second candidate." Zhang Chu's tone sank. A complicated look flashed across his eyes. "Just as Qin Sitong said, the herdsmen were once cultivators. If I'm not mistaken, he had fought with experts. In the end, his cultivation was crippled and he was willing to stay at the foot of the mountain. He had become a lone mountain guardian. Shen Lang and Chen Qiusheng both took the initiative to pay a visit. I even suspect that... This herdsman knows Shen Lang's identity, which is why he sent the horse away. "Help Shen Lang send a message."
When he said this, Zhao Tang's face was filled with shock. "Could it be?!"
Before Zhao Tang could finish, Zhang Chu nodded and replied, "This Mr. Herdsman is most likely a member of the Extreme Profound Sect. He is hiding his name here."
Qin Sitong was also shocked when she heard this conclusion. She quickly stopped and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and go back to acknowledge your family."
When she heard the word 'acknowledge your family', she immediately stopped and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and go back to acknowledge your family. No one noticed the embarrassment on Zhang Chu's face.
After all, other than Zhang Chu, Gong Yuqing and Lin Mann, no one else knew Zhang Chu's "fake" identity.
Shen Lang went to visit the herdsmen, which was called' recognizing relatives'. What did Zhang Chu mean when he went to visit?
Zhang Chu even suspected that the herdsman knew Zhang Chu's identity, which was why he had always ignored Zhang Chu, so he did not need to go back and warm up his face and butt.
"We have to hurry. Mr. Herdsman should hide his identity and stay here. He wants peace and quiet for the rest of his life. How can we disturb him? " Zhang Chu casually avoided it, but his heart was more and more conflicted. As the fake heir, he couldn't help but be confused about the future.
He had spent his entire life, giving everything he had to rebuild the Extreme Profound Sect, but in the end, it was all for someone else's benefit.
Was all of this really worth it?
"It's worth it!" Zhang Chu glanced at it with his peripheral vision. He glanced at Qin Sitong. Even if it wasn't for the Extreme Profound Sect, it was for the Qin family, the secular world that he had promised to protect!
After thinking about this, Zhang Chu's attitude became firmer, and the speed of his feet became faster and faster.
At first, he was only dragging Qin Sitong, but later, he simply carried her on his back, and with a tap of his toes, a gust of wind blew under his feet, heading towards the next rest stop.
Even if they did not know why Shen Lang helped Zhang Chu, everyone knew that it was just to let Zhang Chu help Shen Lang 'share the hatred'.
After all, Shen Lang had also made it onto the ranking and was ranked third, which was enough to make the entire secular world pay attention to him.
Shen Lang was such a smart person, he wouldn't carry all the burden on his shoulders and do it for others.
The distance between the ranch and the rest stop was close to 300 kilometers, which was almost the same distance as the distance between the two 'provincial cities' in the mainland.
However, in this vast and sparsely populated land, 300 kilometers was nothing. There were more than three 'uninhabited' areas that Zhang Chu knew of.
Relying on the strength of a practitioner's feet, Around two o'clock in the afternoon, the rest stop gradually appeared in his field of vision.
It was similar to the rest stop that Zhang Chu and the others had stopped at before. This place was also under the responsibility of five employees.
Ruan Zhu seemed to have touched upon the scenery and her eyes were somewhat sad. Although she did not say it explicitly, Zhang Chu guessed that Ruan Zhu must be worried about the rest stop elder sister.
Considering that Eldest Sister was Gong Yuqing's person at the rest stop, the entire process was to use Ruan Zhu. In order to prevent Ruan Zhu from being sad, Zhang Chu did not mention it and time could wash away everything.
After bargaining with the person in charge of the rest stop for a short time, Zhang Chu and the others bought a second-hand imported off-road vehicle at the price of 100,000 yuan.
This off-road vehicle was probably older than Ruan Zhu. Although it was a second-hand vehicle, it was actually seven or eight times older than Ruan Zhu.
Moreover, it was very likely that it had been abandoned in the no man's area and was dragged back by the staff of the rest stop. After some simple repairs, it was still in the parking lot. If there were travelers passing by, it could be sold for a good price.
After filling up the oil and preparing some simple food, the group set off for the journey again.
If they continued forward, they would reach the urban area. However, there was still a distance of nearly 200 kilometers between them.
In the evening, about 50 kilometers away from the downtown area, the off-road vehicles were 'resting' as expected.
When he opened the hood, he saw that the entire engine had been destroyed. This 100,000 yuan was not worth it at all!
Zhang Chu could only carry Qin Sitong on his back and continue his journey with his legs leaning against each other.
Fortunately, it was already late, so he was not worried about stirring up a commotion. Every step he took was several zhang away, and the tip of his feet was like a dragonfly lightly touching the water on the tarpaulin road. His speed was not any slower than a domestic off-road vehicle.
Around eight o'clock at night. The four of them arrived at the airport and bought a plane ticket. After completing the boarding procedures, they waited in the departure hall.
Actually, they had planned to return to Dongzhou first and rest for a while before heading to the plateau region.
However, considering that they had wasted too much time on this trip to One-Line Mountain and the fact that the entire cultivation world was eyeing them covetously, they decided to head straight to their destination so as to avoid unnecessary complications.
Only after two o'clock in the morning did Zhang Chu and the others board the plane. They crossed the entire continent and arrived at the South Province Airport in the early morning.
After getting off the plane, they found a nearby hotel to rest for a while. It was not until that night that they boarded the last bus to the Himalayas.
There was a village at the foot of the Himalayas. It was unknown, but it was very special.
It was common knowledge that many adventurers and tycoons had been looking forward to 'climbing the mountain' over the years. Therefore, the local tourism industry was very developed.
However, most of the climbers chose to climb the mountain from the other side of the mountain, which was also within Bangladesh.
