"Bro, look! There's someone riding a bike on the highway ahead!!!"
As the car sped along, Li Mengyao suddenly seemed to have discovered something new and immediately shouted excitedly.
Li Hao looked in the direction Li Mengyao pointed and saw a handsome and muscular figure pedaling a bicycle with great effort.
Then they were overtaken by their team in no time.
Li Hao noticed that the other car seemed to have waved to his car when it passed by, but now, from behind, the other car was getting smaller and smaller until it gradually disappeared from sight.
Li Mengyao curiously turned her head, seemingly hoping to find the boy on the bicycle who had waved to her. After looking for a while and finding that he had long since disappeared, she turned back and asked:
"Brother, isn't this the backpacker they talk about in the book? The adventurer who travels all over the country by bicycle? I think he seems to be waving at us. Should we go ask him if he needs help and give him a ride?"
Li Hao was so angry upon hearing this that his head throbbed with pain.
It turns out all that lecture I just gave was for nothing.
Enraged, he flicked Li Mengyao on the forehead and yelled:
"Have you forgotten what I just told you? When you're out and about, avoid trouble, and don't be curious about things that seem illogical. The world has changed a lot; maybe they just like riding bikes?"
Li Mengyao held her head in her hands, her eyes brimming with tears of grievance, but in her heart she disregarded her second brother's words.
'I, Li Mengyao, am a prodigy, awakening a new talent at the age of 14. I was specially admitted to a prestigious university, with a limitless future ahead of me. My very being is etched with the gene for adventure!'
...
The person they saw riding a bicycle was naturally Wang Zheng, who was heading towards Chuncheng.
Watching the convoy whizzing past him, Wang Zheng awkwardly lowered his hand.
This road leads all the way to Chuncheng, and he had originally planned to take a shortcut and hitch a ride.
He didn't expect that the other person would completely ignore him and speed past him.
Moreover, there was a short-haired, round-faced beauty in the lead jeep.
In the instant they passed each other, she leaned out and deliberately blew him a kiss. This sudden enthusiasm left Wang Dashao somewhat bewildered.
However, he could sense the bloody aura emanating from her. Wang Zheng guessed that this round-faced beauty must also be a veteran who had fought on the frontier. He just didn't know why she was so interested in him.
Wang Zheng sighed inwardly.
"Sigh, it's better to rely on yourself than on others! Next time I see her, I'll definitely give her a dozen or so beams of holy light in public, so she'll know she can't just flirt with handsome guys."
Wang Zheng then stopped thinking about it and continued pedaling.
He looked at the distance on the locator; there were still tens of kilometers to go. The thought of arriving in Kunming in just a few hours or so filled him with excitement.
If Chu Tianxing doesn't plan to leave immediately today and can rest and recuperate in Chuncheng, then I...
Hehehe...
The reason it took so long is not because Wang Zheng was useless.
The main thing is that this is the fastest you can ride a mountain bike. Didn't you see that the pedals are practically sparking from his pedaling?
Moreover, if he really wanted to pursue the ultimate speed, he could probably run faster on his own.
However, Wang Zheng thought again that sprinting at full speed would be tiring and deplete his spiritual energy, and it was too unstable and unsafe in the wild.
Nothing beats the comfort of riding a bike.
Sigh, it's not that I'm lazy!
Wang Zheng hummed a folk song from his hometown as he continued forward. After riding for only ten minutes, he could vaguely see several dark figures ahead.
Before he could get any closer, he saw a huge crack spanning the road.
This natural chasm is over ten meters wide and its length is so great that it disappears into the dense forest in the distance.
When Wang Zheng looked up, he saw that on the other side of the crack was a continuous mountain range. The nearest low mountain peak had been cut off, leaving it bare and even lower.
The plains below the mountains were in complete disarray, razed to the ground, leaving only broken walls and piles of ruins.
The cracks that damaged the road originated from this battlefield.
On both sides of the road, countless soldiers in military uniforms were on duty and on guard.
The dark figures Wang Zheng saw were the convoy that had passed him earlier; the cars that had overtaken him earlier were now stopped in the middle of the road.
He had already seen the woman who had flirted with him and blew him a kiss when they first met.
Of the three vehicles, she was the only one who went forward and stood by the crack, negotiating with the officer on duty there.
The other burly men in black got out of their cars and formed a circle around the luxury car in the middle, subtly blocking others from getting close.
Wang Zheng curled his lip; he didn't think much of these so-called noble families.
Seeing the bodyguards' cautious and wary demeanor, Wang Zheng grew even more disdainful.
In contrast, he was more curious about the aftermath of the earth-shattering battle in the distance and the huge cracks in the road.
Without thinking, he got out of the car, pushed his vehicle forward, and walked over.
