Chapter 341: The Little Cotton-Padded Jacket is Leaking Wind
Just as they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they encountered many people riding bikes.
There were those who came on single bikes, and others who came in groups; there were small scooters and underbone motorcycles worth a few thousand, as well as small-displacement motorcycles worth twenty or thirty thousand, and one could often see luxury vehicles worth hundreds of thousands. Some had local Yujing license plates, while others were tourists from out of town checking in. With all sorts of models, it was enough to dazzle anyone's eyes.
Some rode leisurely, while others rode aggressively.
The mountain road was rugged, which just happened to give some people a chance to show off their riding skills. Bike after bike whizzed past them, leaning into turns to the limit. Sometimes, whether or not an accident occurred didn't depend on how good one's technique was, but only on whether there was a vehicle coming in the opposite lane.
The small motorcycle was indeed quite eye-catching, and Taozi, wearing her little helmet, was also quite eye-catching. When these people rode past them, they would often steal a glance at them.
If Chen Shu weren't with the little girl, perhaps someone would have stopped to strike up a conversation. Generally, there wouldn't be any malice; they would just be fond of seeing a cute little girl riding a cute motorcycle and naturally want to chat a bit and make a friend.
With a male companion present, that usually wouldn't happen.
Even more eye-catching was Zhang Suannai behind them.
Zhang Suannai herself had a hot figure. She was wearing a riding suit, her waist was slender, her legs were long and shapely, and she had a long braid down her back tied with a blue thread. She was riding a wild-looking sportbike. People often passed by her, honking their horns and staring at her legs.
"Hey!"
Zhang Suannai caught up to Chen Shu: "You're riding so slow on a mountain run? Everyone is overtaking you!"
Chen Shu did not answer, but instead glanced ahead.
An old man was riding a very old underbone motorcycle with vegetables in the front basket, and he was slowly closing the distance to him. Then, he turned on his signal, overtook the old man, and only then turned his head to look at Zhang Suannai.
The white cat wearing a mini helmet also turned its head, staring straight at Zhang Suannai.
"..."
Zhang Suannai was choked up.
"Beep beep!"
Several more vehicles rode past her in a line, honking their horns and turning their heads to stare at her.
Zhang Suannai couldn't take this, so she left behind a "I'll wait for you guys up ahead" and instantly accelerated, overtaking them.
The vehicles in front weren't cheap, at least six figures; one could buy a dozen of Xiaoxiao's little motorcycles, and they were much more expensive than Zhang Suannai's, but they were still instantly caught up to and overtaken by Zhang Suannai, leaving the people stunned.
The layman watches the excitement, the expert watches the technique; in that instant, Chen Shu felt a very unusual fluctuation of Spirit Power.
What a great way to make up for a lack of horsepower with the Spirit Repulsion Technique.
Then came a U-turn at over a hundred yards. To be honest, in that instant, Chen Shu wouldn't have been surprised even if both of the bike's tires had left the ground. This silly girl was simply playing with her motorcycle like a Flying Sword; she was just short of actually flying.
The motorcycles in front were so frightened that they couldn't help but hit their brakes, their taillights lighting up in a string. By the time they rode past the curve, that motorcycle was already gone.
Chen Shu and the little girl, however, were unhurried, riding along slowly while turning their heads to look at the mountain forest scenery, their postures identical.
Feng Mountain was planted with smoke trees and smokebush trees. Both of their leaves would turn red in the autumn, but there was a certain difference in the timing of when they turned red. Added to the fact that the mountain's altitude and its north-south orientation also had a certain influence on the temperature, it was true that the whole mountain was covered in red, but the degree of redness varied.
Some were as red as fire, others as red as blood; shades of red of varying depths were intermingled, forming a brightly colored picture.
It was as if the sunset had descended upon the earth.
This was one scene on the road.
Another scene was the scenery on the road surface.
There were also many motorcycle-circle bloggers who came to Feng Mountain to check in.
Some female bloggers had great figures and deliberately highlighted them in their attire, either appearing heroic and spirited or emphasizing a different kind of temptation to capture the hearts of online otaku fans and old lechers. They weren't like Zhang Suannai, who left people with no desire to appreciate her, and were very worth looking at.
Come to think of it, female motorcycle riders had a bonus point—
Wearing a helmet, you couldn't see their faces clearly.
This was just too good.
When Chen Shu usually met a beautiful woman with a great figure on the road, he would never go up to look at her face.
Chen Shu was also completely unreserved. Except for those who were acting as a "mudguard" or carrying a "mudguard," he looked at the rest openly and honestly. Combined with the roadside scenery, the fluffy little cat he was carrying in front of him, and the familiar music coming from his earphones, his mood improved.
Half an hour later.
The two people and one cat met Zhang Suannai at the sugar water shop on the mountaintop.
By then, Zhang Suannai had already been waiting there for quite a while and had even beaten up a few people. Chen Shu didn't know why, and didn't want to ask. Since ancient times, when Sword Sect Disciples went out, they were either beating people up or getting beaten up. If one had to ask the reason for everything, that would be too tiring.
Zhang Suannai acted as if nothing had happened, greeting them happily:
"You guys just arrived?"
"Mm..."
"I've been here for half a day."
"You're amazing."
"What are you drinking? My treat!"
"Taro balls."
"Taro balls."
The little girl was a heartless repeater.
Zhang Suannai then ran off to buy the sugar water.
Seats in the shop were a bit tight, so she just threw her Mobile Phone on the table, hoping someone would steal her phone or come to forcibly seize her seat, so that she could add a little more fun to today's mountain run.
"Emmm..."
Chen Shu always felt that the way everyone looked at him was a bit off; this had started after he spoke two sentences to Zhang Suannai.
As expected, he should have just pretended not to know Zhang Suannai.
"I'm going out to take a photo."
After Chen Shu finished speaking, he walked out of the shop, looked left and right, then jumped onto a tree to frame the scene of the mountain's red leaves into his Mobile Phone.
After taking it, he checked it once; the angle wasn't very good.
"Whoosh..."
Chen Shu decisively flew into the air.
The wind whistled in his ears.
After gaining altitude, the scenery immediately changed; the mountains, forests, and red leaves became a stunning oil painting spread out on the ground, with clouds and mist lingering among them, and the cold high-altitude wind and the clouds that seemed level with him made him feel like an immortal.
"Click, click..."
Chen Shu took many photos, planning to send them to Qingqing to see when he returned in the evening, before gracefully descending.
"?"
The way everyone looked at him became even more strange.
Do they take me for an accomplice of Zhang Suannai from the Sword Sect?
Chen Shu frowned and returned to the shop.
The sweet soup had also been served.
This meal of sweet soup was consumed quite quietly, thanks to the ferocity Zhang Suannai had displayed earlier; the people sitting at the tables next to them spoke in very low voices, and the shop owner, who had a reputation for poor service, also became gentle and attentive. It was just that Zhang Suannai was a bit regretful that her seat hadn't been snatched and her Mobile Phone hadn't been stolen.
Then the three people and one cat parked the vehicle there and arrived at the highest point of Feng Mountain.
Zhang Suannai turned her head and asked them, "Tomorrow is Sunday, Qingqing isn't here, do you have any other plans?"
Upon hearing this, the little girl also looked at her brother-in-law.
Facing the picturesque scenery, Chen Shu felt a surge of heroic spirit in his heart and couldn't help but raise his arms and shout lightly, "While Qingqing is away, we are going to sleep until noon!"
The little girl immediately responded, "Sleep until noon!"
"And then ruin all of Qingqing's flowers!"
"Ruin all of Qingqing's flowers!"
"..."
Zhang Suannai twitched the corner of her mouth.
Taozi sat to the side, secretly peeking at them, not daring to make a sound.
After viewing the scenery, they descended the mountain from the other side.
Chen Shu remained slow and leisurely, still at ease.
The little girl also wore headphones, occasionally turning her head to look at the scenery by the road, occasionally glancing at her brother-in-law in front, her hand on the handle tapping out a rhythm in a relaxed manner.
The 360° camera recorded everything.
Seven o'clock in the evening, Zhilan Garden.
Chen Shu and Xiaoxiao ate takeout; after finishing, they didn't clean up, just letting it sit on the stone table, one playing with the cat on the ground, the other sitting on the swing playing with a Mobile Phone... if Qingqing were here, they would definitely be scolded.
Just as Chen Shu wanted to send a message to Qingqing, he received a message from her first, which was a series of pictures.
He tapped to open them and saw they were all scenery along the way.
There were endless grasslands, snow-capped mountains, highland lakes as blue as the eye of the earth, salt lakes as white as a mirror of the sky, and scenes of wolf packs chasing wild antelopes on the plateau... pure and primitive scenery, without any traces of humanity, as if returning to millions of years ago.
Chen Shu: Beautiful.
Chen Shu: Did you arrive at the base?
Qingqing: Arrived.
Chen Shu: Is it cold over there?
Qingqing: Cold at night, cold when it's windy and rainy during the day, not cold when it's sunny.
Chen Shu: Did you buy fruit to eat?
Qingqing: 【Picture】
Qingqing: Bought some to eat.
Chen Shu: You bought quite a lot.
Qingqing: Sharing some with my roommates.
Chen Shu: You've grown up.
Chen Shu: /Pointing with a Sword: Hurry up and send a cute emoji.
Qingqing: /Cute.
Chen Shu: 【Picture】【Picture】【Picture】
Chen Shu: Look quickly.
Chen Shu: The red leaves on Feng Mountain are very beautiful.
Chen Shu: Went mountain riding with Xiaoxiao today, and drank sweet soup, hahahaha.
Qingqing: /Smile.
Chen Shu: What's wrong?
Qingqing: 【Screenshot】
Chen Shu tapped to open it.
It was a screenshot of a private chat between the little girl and her sister, in which the little girl had sent several pictures to her sister, all taken by the motorcycle's 360 camera; in the photos, Chen Shu was turning his head to stare at the young ladies on different passing motorcycles, and finally, the little girl even added, "Brother-in-law has been looking at the beauties on the road."
"..."
Chen Shu turned his head to look to the side.
He saw the little girl sitting cross-legged on the lawn, her two hands fighting with Taozi, playing happily.
Chen Shu withdrew his gaze and thought for a moment.
Chen Shu: I just thought the clothes they were wearing looked very nice; if you wore them, they would definitely look even better, so I was planning to buy one for you.
Chen Shu: /Cute.
Qingqing: /Smile.
Chen Shu: Seeing you smile so happily, I'm going to buy you one right now.
Qingqing: Don't you dare!
Chen Shu: /chuckles foolishly
Qingqing: Logging off, going to observe.
Chen Shu: I'm also going to go teach Xiaoxiao how to play chess.
Qingqing: Watch out for losing face.
Chen Shu: How could I lose face?
Qingqing: I suggest you teach Taozi to play instead.
Chen Shu: Go on, go on, go on.
"Tch!"
Chen Shu really did not believe in this bad luck.
One hour later.
The things on the stone table were finally cleared away.
The two sat opposite each other on both sides of the stone table, holding chess pieces in their hands, a white cat sat on the table watching, and the chess game was nearly decided.
Chen Shu frowned tightly.
How could it be like this?
Xiaoxiao also frowned tightly, her eyes flickering.
Is brother-in-law about to lose? Brother-in-law just finished teaching me, and I've already beaten him; will brother-in-law be very embarrassed? Should I go a little easier on brother-in-law?
"Sigh..."
Chen Shu let out a long sigh.
At the same time—
Zhang Suannai sat in the police station, looking honest.
