Chen Xuan also had this intention; yesterday, he basically surveyed this side, and today he planned to visit the back mountain.
"Uncle, we won't stay any longer, let's go check out the situation on the back mountain first."
Chen Xuan called out, turned around, and was about to leave.
"Go from the road over there, it'll be easier."
"Although the route is a bit winding, it's easier than climbing over the mountain and won't be dangerous."
Old Wang hurriedly reminded them.
Chen Xuan smiled and nodded, "Okay, uncle, I got it."
Returned to the courtyard, packed things with the two won, and left the small village.
The villagers behind them were all talking, marveling at Chen Xuan's skills in driving away Li Hu's gang.
The three of them walked on the narrow mountain path, clearly a road trampled out by generations of villagers.
Without realizing it, it was already noon, and they still hadn't crossed the mountain peak.
"The back mountain belongs to another village, so tonight we'll probably have to camp on the mountain."
Chen Xuan murmured as he looked at the map in his hand.
"I don't mind anyway; I ca here for work, enduring a bit of hardship is nothing."
Yang Leshan shrugged and then glanced at Xiao Yiyi, "Unlike so people, whose reasons for coming here aren't so pure, if you can't handle the hardship, it's best not to co and suffer."
Xiao Yiyi's face imdiately turned displeased, "Yang Leshan, who are you talking about?"
"Back when I was climbing mountains with Brother Chen, you didn't even know where you were sipping coffee!"
"Speaking of enduring hardship, I was ahead of you! Compared to in this aspect, you're far behind!"
Humph!
Yang Leshan snorted softly, "Oh really? Then why don't we see who's the first to say they're tired, whoever does is the little sister!"
"Alright, I'm not afraid of you, how laughable!" Xiao Yiyi was undaunted.
Chen Xuan looked helpless; the two of them never stopped bickering when they were together.
"I say, you two, don't just focus on showing off. If your soles get blisters, you're the ones who'll be suffering." Chen Xuan kindly reminded.
Neither of them spoke, both gritting their teeth and persisting, determined to outdo the other.
Seeing they had no intention of stopping to rest, Chen Xuan didn't reply either, so they just continued onwards.
If their soles really got blisters later, there was no need to worry; he could treat them himself.
It was also a little lesson for the two of them.
By afternoon, they arrived at the back mountain and stopped to rest.
The two of them imdiately took off their shoes, secretly grimacing.
Without a doubt, they both got blisters.
"See, I told you so."
Chen Xuan shook his head slightly, took out silver needles, and walked over.
Punctured the blisters and applied ointnt.
"Rest for a while, when the wounds scab over it'll be fine." After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he went off to check the environnt ahead.
Xiao Yiyi had two blisters on her soles, while Yang Leshan had more than Xiao Yiyi.
There was no helping it; Yang Leshan's voluptuous figure inevitably resulted in more pressure.
Heh heh heh...
Xiao Yiyi burst into laughter, "You chubby girl, now you're in for it!"
"Still trying to compete with ? You'll just suffer more!"
Yang Leshan looked furious, "What right do you have to mock ? How much better can you be, you also got blisters."
"But I only have two blisters while yours are more than mine." Xiao Yiyi smirked mischievously, "Don't get upset, it's an obvious fact!"
Yang Leshan was so angry that she couldn't say a word.
This round of "competition" ended with Xiao Yiyi erging victorious.
Chen Xuan looked around the area and confird there was no danger.
"You two rest here and wait for , I'm going down to check the soil."
Chen Xuan called out and quickly went down the mountain.
Then he picked up soil to test it.
"Very close!"
Chen Xuan couldn't help but rejoice, "Looks like this place is very suitable!"
He continued to go to other places to collect soil samples for testing.
After several experints, Chen Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, certain that this was the place.
However, he still had to go to the other direction to test the soil.
This area's range was ultimately too small.
But the two won couldn't walk for the ti being, so they had to wait another night.
Returning to the mountain, Chen Xuan began setting up tents, "Now you see why it's necessary to be fully prepared when coming to the wilderness."
"Even if you don't need it, it's alright, but if you do need it and don't have it, you'll be in trouble."
Chen Xuan set up three tents, two on the inside and one on the outermost side.
The outermost tent belonged to him, able to protect the two behind him.
Before they realized it, it got dark, but with food and water they brought along, they wouldn't go hungry.
Yet when it ca ti to sleep, the two won began to display their skills, continuing their secret contests with each other...
