Chapter 608 Entering the Mountain
For the next two hours, Zhang San, Yang Liushi and others were busy sorting out the items needed to enter the snow mountain, while Wei Changtian went to see Liang Qin.
The latter has been with Liang Zhen in Liangzhou City for almost ten days, and has been looking forward to Wei Changtian every day during this period.
As a result, Wei Changtian came, but he left before he could even sit down.
The couple reunited after a short separation and found themselves in such a situation. Liang Qin naturally felt reluctant to part.
However, she also knew that Wei Changtian's trip to Tianshan was of great importance, and she must not hold her husband back.
"Brother Changtian, you must be more careful. Remember to report to me when you are safe."
"I won't tell Sister Xu and Sister Lu about this matter, so as not to make them worry."
"But you must come back safely. I, I have already..."
"Um??"
Hearing this, Wei Changtian's expression froze, and his eyes subconsciously fell on Liang Qin's lower abdomen.
"Pregnant???"
"ah?"
Liang Qin's face flushed immediately, and she waved her hands and said, "Brother Changtian! What are you talking about!"
"N-Never mind!"
"Not pregnant?"
Wei Changtian was stunned: "What did you want to say just now?"
"I, I want to say that I have already promised Sister Xu and Sister Lu that I will take good care of you."
"No, why are you stuttering about something like this?"
"I, I"
Liang Qin lowered her head as if she had made a mistake, but then she raised her head again with her eyes wide open.
"What's wrong with me stuttering? Who knew that you would think of that, Brother Changtian?"
"Any man would think the same way."
Wei Changtian curled his lips and confirmed again with some concern: "Are you really not pregnant?"
"I just had my period a few days ago, of course I don't have it!"
Liang Qin first proved herself, then asked suspiciously: "Brother Changtian, do you want me to be pregnant or not?"
"Of course it's best to have it!"
Wei Changtian nodded seriously: "But this kind of thing can't be rushed, just let it go, don't feel any pressure."
“.”
"I'm not in a hurry at all, but you, Brother Changtian, seem to be panicking."
Liang Qin muttered softly and finally stopped talking about this topic. Instead, she started asking Wei Changtian whether he had prepared the necessary items to go into the mountains.
In this way, the two chatted for nearly half an hour in the afterglow of the setting sun. When their love was deep, they couldn't help but "cultivate together" for a while. They didn't walk out of the house until the sun had completely set and went to the dining room to have dinner together.
Yang Liushi, Zhang San and others had been waiting inside for a long time. When they saw them come in, they stood up with a smile.
"Sir, Madam."
Zhang San came closer and reported to Wei Changtian in a low voice: "Everything needed to enter the mountain has been prepared. When are we going to set off?"
"Later."
Wei Changtian hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's eat first and leave when it's late at night."
"Yes, I'll go prepare the car first."
Zhang San bowed and left the dining room, leaving Yang Liushi and Liang Zhen in the room.
"Sister Liu Shi!"
Liang Qin ran to Yang Liushi happily, and the two girls soon started chatting and laughing.
Wei Changtian walked over to Liang Zhen and sat down, lowering his voice to ask for confirmation again:
"Uncle Liang, is Qin'er pregnant?"
"Um???"
Liang Zhen suddenly turned around, his eyes wide open: "When did this happen? How come I don't know about it?"
"Well, it seems that my guess was wrong."
Seeing Liang Zhen's dramatic reaction, Wei Changtian knew that Liang Qin was probably not pregnant, so he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to be responsible for Liang Qin, nor does he dislike children.
It’s just that Wei Changtian feels that he is not ready to be a father yet, so he subconsciously always hopes that this day will come later.
"Uncle Liang, it's okay, I just asked casually."
Picking up the bowl and chopsticks, Wei Changtian smiled and said to Liang Zhen, who looked suspicious, "Let's eat."
"Changtian, are you really okay?"
"Yeah, it's all right."
"good"
“.”
Another two hours later.
At the beginning of the hour of Hai, the night was already deep, and the moonlight slanted across the distant snow-capped mountains, illuminating the northern part of the night.
In order to be on the safe side and prevent the enemy spies in the city from discovering his whereabouts, Wei Changtian deliberately chose this time to set off, and everything was arranged in the most low-key way.
Under the watchful eyes of Liang Qin, Liang Zhen, Han Zhao and Du Chang, an ordinary carriage quietly left the city from the side gate in the north and headed straight for the Tianshan Mountains 300 miles away.
The carriage had no lights or flags, and it was driving alone on the dirt road shrouded in the darkness, and soon left the area of Liangzhou City.
As the distance they drove got farther and farther, the road became more and more difficult to drive on, and the squeaking sounds made by the car due to the violent bumps became louder and louder.
"Captain Huang, how many people usually go in and out of Tianshan?"
At midnight, Wei Changtian lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the mountains that had become extremely tall. He turned around and asked Huang Sheng who was sitting opposite him.
"There should be a lot of medicinal herbs and treasures in such a long mountain range. I'm afraid many people will go in and try their luck, right?"
"Your guess is absolutely correct, there are indeed many rare treasures in Tianshan Mountain. It is said that someone has found mica fungus that can cure all kinds of diseases."
Huang Sheng replied in a low voice: "However, most people go into the mountains to collect herbs in summer and autumn, and they all walk around the periphery of the mountains. Few people dare to go deep into the mountains in winter."
"Hmm? Is it because it's too cold in the mountains in winter?"
“That’s one of them, but it’s not the only one.”
Huang Sheng's expression turned serious. "Just like the Ten Thousand Mountains in the southwest, it is said that there are many monsters hiding in Tianshan, and there are even thousand-year-old monsters with strength comparable to the upper third rank."
"Most of these monsters will be active in the extreme cold, so except for some desperate criminals who are trying to escape from the government, no one dares to go too deep into the mountains in winter."
"Monster?"
Wei Changtian nodded indifferently.
The Tianshan mountain range is so vast that it is normal for there to be some monsters.
"Captain Huang, have you ever encountered any monsters when you traveled through Tianshan before?"
"Sir, I have met him several times."
Huang Sheng answered truthfully: "Even though they are only small demons with a few decades of cultivation, I have never seen a big demon before."
"Um"
Wei Changtian responded casually and was about to ask something else when the carriage slowly stopped.
"Sir, the road ahead is no longer suitable for carriages!"
Zhang San's voice floated into the carriage, and everyone didn't waste any time and quickly got out of the car with their luggage.
Standing in the biting cold wind, Wei Changtian looked forward. Apart from the rugged rocks, all he could see were snowflakes dancing in the air.
"Zhang San, burn the carriage and release the horse."
"Captain Huang, lead the way. Let's go into the mountain now."
After giving the order in a concise manner, Wei Changtian's expression gradually became serious.
Soon, a strong flame shot up into the sky from behind the five people. The two horses that had broken free from their reins neighed and ran into the night, disappearing in an instant.
“Crackle!”
The wood of the carriage was burning fiercely in the fire, and when it encountered the wind, it turned into a fire dragon, tumbling in the air with its fangs and claws bared.
However, if you look further away, this pile of fire is so insignificant compared to the vast snow-capped mountains.
Just like a star in the vast night sky, it flashes the briefest light in the boundless universe.
