Because it is deep in the mountains, there are towering trees all around and dense bushes on the ground. Also, because it is summer, there are many flowers and plants, as well as many mosquitoes.
For safety reasons, everyone looked around while resting, fearing that snakes or insects might appear and catch them off guard.
After they had rested for a while, Xiang Heng called out to everyone to prepare to continue their journey.
Hearing this, Yan Xi put away the bread bag and prepared to put on the heavy travel bag.
Xiang Heng dragged his bag and said, "Let me help you carry it."
Yan Xi shook his head, "I can do it myself."
"You're walking very slowly with it on your back." Xiang Heng's face was expressionless. While Xiang Heng was stunned, he easily put it on his back and walked forward.
Yan Xi hurried to catch up, glancing at his own travel bag, "Then I'll carry yours."
"No, just walk faster so that everyone can get to the villa faster."
Yan Xi: “…” So you just dislike the fact that I walk too slowly?
Since everyone told him to go faster, then he went faster.
So Yan Xi pushed forward and walked in front.
Everyone was envious of him because he walked effortlessly with nothing in his hands.
Chen Menglai, with her short and handsome hair, looked at him and said with a tut, "The president is so nice to him."
Xiong Yuanke smiled jokingly: "The president has always been very good to him, you know that."
"Oh my, don't be jealous. Feng Yanxi refused to join the club at all costs, and it was Xiang Heng who dragged him in to make up the numbers. So it's only right that you take better care of him." Leng Xingqi patted Xiang Heng's shoulder and raised his eyebrows. "Isn't it, President?"
Xiang Heng hummed lightly and followed Yan Xi with his long legs.
Yan Xi looked around, taking pictures, and suddenly Xiang Heng came into the shot. He was stunned for a moment, put down the camera and looked at him, "President?"
Xiang Heng looked at him and said, "It's easy to get distracted if you walk so fast."
"Oh." Yan Xi slowed down.
The two walked side by side, and the six people behind them slowly caught up.
After walking for nearly four hours, they finally arrived at the gate of the villa before dark.
The big villa is in European style, with three floors, a large area and surrounded by iron gates.
There is a row of Podocarpus trees planted on both sides of the gate.
There are also common landscape trees such as red maple, magnolia, and melaleuca inside the iron gate.
Beneath the trees are lawns and flower beds, with a fountain in the center.
At first glance, the whole villa is very beautiful.
There is also a sign outside the gate introducing the villa. The last sentence emphasizes that tourists are not allowed to destroy anything in the villa, including the grass and trees here, nor can they throw garbage at will. Violators will be severely punished.
Although it is a scenic spot, there are no tour guides and no one to look after the scenic area.
There was a metal bag hanging at the door, and inside it was the key to open the door.
Leng Xingqi took out the key to open the door, and everyone entered the villa, looking around.
Su Mo put her hands on her hips and looked at the three-story villa in front of her. She sighed, "Finally, I'm here. I have to say, this villa is really beautiful."
"Hey, come and take a look. The water in this fountain is so cool, just like ice water. Even under such a strong sun, it hasn't been heated up to hot water." Shu Yan, who had her hair tied in a ponytail and was dressed in black and purple, washed her hands and face and waved to them.
Ouyang Yi, with a few wisps of gray hair on his head, stepped forward and said, "Really? Let me try."
After putting his hand in, he exclaimed in surprise: "It really is."
Hearing this, Yan Xi, who was sweating profusely, walked over curiously and washed his hands.
The water temperature was indeed very low, just like the sea water at the bottom of the sea, a little icy, but very comfortable for him who had been hot for a long time.
Thinking of this, he washed his face and the heat from his body quickly dissipated.
The water droplets on his face dripped down his chin into the water. Yan Xi took a subconscious look and found that there seemed to be a round copper object in the water, which was covered by the leaves in the water and was a little unclear.
He reached out to grab it, his sleeves were wet, but he still didn't catch it.
Just when he was about to stop, the leaves covering it flipped over, revealing the full appearance of the thing.
Yan Xi looked closely and saw that it looked like a pocket watch.
Leng Xingqi noticed that he was fascinated by what he was watching and leaned over. "What are you looking at? Why are you so fascinated?"
Yan Xi looked up at him, pointed at the pocket watch in the water and said, "There is a pocket watch in there, it looks quite old."
"Really? Let me see." Leng Xingqi leaned over to take a closer look, with a puzzled look on his face: "No, you must have seen it wrong."
"How could it be? It's right here." Yan Xi looked down and saw only golden leaves in the water. There was no pocket watch at all.
He was dumbfounded, his eyes widening in disbelief.
No, it was here just now?!
Leng Xingqi put his cold hand on his face and said with a smile, "Those are leaves."
Yan Xi was chilled by him and shuddered, "Go away, how long have you been soaking your hands? Why are they so cold?"
Leng Xingqi smiled and blinked, "How long you've been watching is how long I've been soaking in it."
Xiang Heng walked up the stairs of the villa and looked back at them. "Okay, everyone, come here. Let's go in and assign a room and put our luggage away. The sun has set now, so we have to cook quickly."
Su Mo: "No matter what kind of food you cook, it's not as good as barbecue."
Shu Yan: "That's right, barbecuing here is the perfect atmosphere."
