Chapter 114 Extreme Speed

Laoniu Mountain consists of two peaks, each 800 meters high. Between these two peaks lies the only passage for this highway. After a period of construction, the mountainside is covered with a lot of messy rocks and timber. The rain is getting heavier, and there are signs of mudslides on the mountainside. The bad feeling comes from this narrow passage, which is about 200 meters long.

Li Jia slowed down the car, his eyes fixed on the hillsides on both sides. His heart tightened as he saw small stones suddenly rolling down the hillside. He believed that it wouldn't be long before the stones on the hillside rolled down and blocked the road, meaning he would probably be trapped here today.

"Fasten your seatbelts, Xiaoqing, you guys hold each other's arms, close your eyes, count to fifteen, and then open them!" Li Jia looked out the window, calculating the trajectory and speed of the falling rocks, and quickly gave concise instructions.

"Yes, Big Brother!" Li Xiaotong didn't ask why; she sensed Li Jia's unusual expression and answered crisply.

"It's up to you!" Meng Yao also noticed the increasing amount of soil and rocks on the hillside. Although it hadn't formed into mudslides yet, it was already creating a considerable destructive force.

"Close your eyes! Start counting!" Li Jia said, slamming his foot on the accelerator. The wheels screeched as the white Passat plunged into the narrowest section of the road. Once they made it through, they'd be on the highway and back in City B in no time. Li Jia could have stopped and waited, but he didn't. He had two reasons for doing so: first, he didn't know when the rain would stop or how long they'd have to wait; second, his inherent personality was at play. Faced with something so dangerous, he felt compelled to try and overcome it. Of course, this was only after careful calculations ensured he could safely get through. He wouldn't risk his family and friends; without intense exercise, one's physical condition would deteriorate.

The car's speed increased to its maximum within three seconds. Before entering the passage, which was only a little over two hundred meters long, Li Feng had already increased the speed to two hundred kilometers per hour. Therefore, it only took about four seconds to pass through this section. The rocks that started falling from the mountaintop would take at least ten seconds to reach the ground. So, Li Jia's car sped out of the narrow passage before the rocks fell, and then drifted beautifully into the highway entrance. The huge rocks behind him completely blocked the short passage.

Meng Yao, who was in the car, was already feeling dizzy. The sudden high speed made her feel suffocated. Those few seconds had made her feel extremely suffocated. When Li Jia slowed down the car, she had already slumped into the seat.

"Awesome! Big brother! I want to ride in your car and drift again sometime! It's awesome!" Li Xiaotong excitedly climbed up from behind onto Li Jia's shoulder and shouted happily, a stark contrast to the pale faces of Li Xiaoqing, Li Yan, and Zhou Xiaoyu.

At a speed of 200 kilometers per hour, due to the physiological limitations of the human eye and air friction, a rectangular angle will appear in the field of vision. This visual angle can cause dizziness and nausea in a very short time.

Although Li Jia told Li Yan and the others to close their eyes, their curiosity made them secretly open their eyes for a moment, which led to the current situation where they were pale, had a stuffy throat, and sat there motionless. Only Li Xiaotong was an exception, who watched Li Jia's driving skills with her eyes wide open the whole time.

"Did it feel like a race against time?" Li Jia asked Li Xiaotong with a smile, and the answer she got was a thumbs up from Li Xiaotong: "It's definitely more exciting than that!"
