Chapter 675

Next, Reba smiled and said, "I've seen that Tyndall effect before; now let you experience the Dagli Garden effect."

As she spoke.

She thoughtfully handed Qin Feng a bottle of mineral water.

After all, the journey was relatively difficult.

Eating something and drinking some water.

Replenishing one's stamina was still very necessary.

Thoughtful, but not very much so~

On this roughly three-kilometer staircase like a ladder to heaven.

At the corners, there would be small platforms for resting.

It was not straight up and down; otherwise, the danger coefficient would be very high.

Even though the height difference looked large.

It was a bit creepy.

But because the designed structure was reasonably sound.

It was relatively safe.

Qin Feng, while eating a small bread roll, suggested, "Let's wait for Uncle Ma and ask him what letter he is delivering up the mountain. If we can carry it along, he won't have to make the trip back and forth." Reba answered with a grin, "You're actually quite nice!"

--【To be honest, although China Post EMS can sometimes be slow, as long as it is within China, they truly deliver no matter what!】

--【I miss the days of letter exchanges; every time I saw the green 'Erba' bicycles, my pen pal would bring a reply!】

--【I don't miss it. Technology brings too much convenience to life; nostalgia is just fake sentimentality.】

--【I agree completely! Back then, don't even talk about video calls; even making a phone call was difficult?】

--【Hope we can get down the mountain before dark.】

--【That's right~ Brother Feng and Reba, stay safe!】

To be honest.

The netizens in the live broadcast room.

were still very concerned about the safety of the young couple, Qin Feng and Reba.

After all, if Brother Feng met with any misfortune.

We wouldn't be able to watch such an interesting live stream in the future!

At this very moment.

Qin Feng and Reba noticed.

Behind the postman, Uncle Ma.

were following two young Misses and a middle-aged doctor.

They carried simple medical equipment on their backs.

Climbing steadily up the stairs.

Soon, Uncle Ma spotted the young couple.

He held a 'Baijiang' cigarette in his mouth and waved cheerfully at Qin Feng.

Uncle Ma called out loudly, "Why have you run up here? Be careful when climbing up." Qin Feng replied, "Uncle Ma, are you going to deliver a letter?"

Reba jumped in and said, "If it's a letter for the Cliff Village, we can take it for you." Qin Feng added, "To save you from the tiring climb back and forth."

The young couple sang in harmony.

Husband leads, wife follows.

Focusing on perfect coordination!

Uncle Ma laughed, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes seeming denser than those of other middle-aged people his age.

After all, delivering letters in remote areas.

Exposed to wind and sun, naturally made him look more weathered.

Hearing what the young couple said.

Uncle Ma shook his head and smiled, saying, "No need, no need. We require real-name signature upon receipt."

Reba scratched her head and asked, "What does that mean?"

Qin Feng naturally knew what it meant.

However.

Before he could speak.

Uncle Ma spoke bluntly, "I don't trust you; what if you lose the letters I'm delivering?" His words made Reba scratch her head and laugh awkwardly rather than politely.

Afterwards, the group continued climbing the mountain together.

The three medical staff following behind Uncle Ma.

were poverty-alleviation medical personnel.

This trip was to conduct regular check-ups on the elderly patients in Cliff Village.

Reba sighed, "Since transportation is so inconvenient, why not relocate?"

Of course, she knew that for a Chinese person, home.

Exactly what it meant.

Moreover, those elderly people.

Most would not be willing to leave their native land where they once lived.

Perhaps they had few hopes left for the rest of their lives.

But their final obsession was to return to one's roots in death.

Uncle Ma continued, "The relocation of Cliff Village has been ongoing; houses have been built at the foot of the mountain, but some villagers are unwilling to leave, and not many remain on the mountain now." Qin Feng and Reba nodded simultaneously.

Though the young couple said nothing,

they could imagine that

when one of the villages perched on the cliff disappears,

perhaps it will be after the last elder passes away.

Nostalgia is certainly a sentiment,

but the march of progress will inevitably cause many old traces to fade into the dust and smoke.

About half an hour later,

the group finally arrived at Cliff Village.

However!

From far away,

Qin Feng seemed to have noticed something rather 'eerie'!

Reba was also surprised; she asked, "Qin Feng, why does it feel a bit strange?" The people nearby

made her feel somewhat afraid.

She quietly hid behind Qin Feng.
