The exhausted bodyguard could only say, "Mr. Lin, it's not that I'm physically weak, it's that you're physically strong."

"Why!"

Lin Congzhi was speechless. If he waited for this bastard, he was afraid he wouldn't catch up with Jiang Yimei until dark, so he had no choice but to abandon him.

"You climb slowly, I'll go up first."

He was already aware of his subordinates' plan; there were backups at regular intervals. This way, he didn't need to worry about being slowed down by his slower subordinates.

The panting subordinates didn't want to climb anymore, because climbing would be a waste of time and energy. They decided to just wait here for Boss Lin to come down.

Upon reaching the second rendezvous point, Lin Congzhi met up with his second subordinate.

This is a fork in the road with five paths. Anyone unfamiliar with the mountaineering team would definitely get lost here.

"Which road did they go?"

The subordinate pointed to a road leading into the depths ahead and replied, "That one!"

There's a path leading up the mountain next to this road, yet the mountaineering team doesn't take this route. It seems common sense can really make a big mistake here.

Lin Congzhi was glad that someone was there to meet him, otherwise he would have made a wrong judgment.

As you walk along this path, your view gradually narrows, and you are surrounded by dense bushes and trees.

The environment was quite eerie and quiet; anyone alone here would definitely be scared.

He only dared to enter this place when he had someone with him; otherwise, he would never have dared to go in even if he were beaten to death.

Delve deeper into the path, winding upwards again—perhaps this is the mystery of this little road.

Although the road in the middle just now went directly up the mountain, it may not be the road to the top of Huangqi Mountain. It may be the road to other places, or the road to the top of other small mountains.

The mountaineering team found the route so accurately, it seems that some of them were experienced or had been here many times before.

This is a relief, at least they won't get lost.

It was almost evening, and the mountain path was gradually becoming dark.

In the dim forest, the calls of large birds could be clearly heard and chicken-like birds could be seen.

Perhaps this is the pheasant, the ancestor of chickens.

This thing is quite frightening when it flies and makes a sound in a gloomy environment. In short, Lin Congzhi's men were frightened many times.

Lin Congzhi was speechless at the sight of these bodyguards.

Those with poor physical condition are poor, and those who are timid are timid. How can they be responsible and make achievements?

Gao Jiakai's work efficiency is really poor; it's better to do things myself in the future.

Upon reaching the third rendezvous point, there are three routes leading to various destinations.

After much anticipation, the men at the rendezvous point finally welcomed Boss Lin.

If Boss Lin didn't come soon, he was thinking of turning back.

Because the environment here is so terrifying, you never know when something will suddenly jump out from the side, or when some ghostly thing will appear.

Although it wasn't very dark, being deep in the mountains, 5 pm was equivalent to 7 pm.

It was already close to five o'clock, and they could still vaguely see the road conditions thanks to the sunlight.

Since the third subordinate was reluctant to go along, he asked Boss Lin for his opinion: "Boss Lin, it's getting dark, do you still want to go?"

Lin Congzhi frowned, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "What? Are you scared, or are you tired?"

Upon seeing his gaze, the two bodyguards trembled and hastily explained, "No, we were just trying to comfort President Lin."

Lin Congzhi, without changing his expression, retorted, "Don't you think about your companions?"
