Chapter 125: Deep Mountain Wilderness Village_1
"For us, if we were just visiting an ordinary mountain village, renting a bus would’ve sufficed; and yet, we’ve gone through great lengths to find five off-road vehicles. It’s clear that the place we’re heading to must lack proper roads, at least not any decent ones. It seems the situation there is much worse than I had anticipated."
Hearing your words, the driver, who had been wearing sunglasses and driving all along, couldn’t help but laugh, "Young man, growing up in a big city from childhood, you might find it a bit hard to adjust to the countryside, right?"
"It’s not that I can’t adjust, it’s just... never mind, forget it."
Originally, you thought that if it were just an ordinary mountain village with residents, it would mean that the place might simply hold some relics; but if it were a deserted place, then the mysteries within would run much deeper.
Looking up at the towering mountains that were drawing ever closer, for some reason, you felt an increasingly heavy sense of burden.
Just as you expected, the vehicle quickly hit the mountain road.
At first, the Students of the Eastern Sea in the lead could be heard shrieking with excitement due to the thrilling mountain paths, but after more than an hour, the road became rougher and the off-road vehicles’ capabilities were finally put to the test.
The road went from cement to asphalt, then from asphalt to gravel, and finally transformed into the bumpy mountain path that lay before you now.
The off-road vehicles’ speed gradually decreased, and the slower the car moved, the heavier your heart became, knowing that the place they were heading to was completely uninhabited. Conducting an excavation in such a place was undoubtedly very difficult.
After bumping along the mountain road for nearly two and a half hours, the vehicles finally came to a slow stop in a relatively flat hollow.
