I glanced at the address on my phone, and to be honest, it was quite far from here. The main problem was that I'd never heard of this mountain village before.
With one hand holding a skewer of grilled meat and the other tapping on my phone, I looked up exactly where this place was.
I was really into it when someone snatched my phone away.
"Eat something first."
"Okay." I nodded and obediently started eating the skewers.
Although we ordered a lot of skewers, there were only so many of them, so we ate them very quickly.
"You, are you done eating?" I wiped my hands and mouth with a tissue.
"Mm." You nodded slightly and handed the phone back to me.
"You, what do you think the situation will be that even Qingzhen can't handle?" I asked curiously while tapping on my phone.
"She's just a little snake demon, it's normal that we can't handle her." You said in a calm tone.
Really? I remember the setting of this book. In the early stages, it seems that Liu Lieyu was reincarnated as a small snake demon who had only cultivated for a thousand years in the human world, yet he was already very strong in the human world.
However, I immediately realized that, putting aside the fact that Liu Lieyu is the male protagonist in the book, even if he wasn't the previous incarnation, he was still the Eastern Emperor, so it's normal for him to be stronger than others after reincarnation.
"You, let's set off now." I've already scouted the location.
How do I get there?
"Of course, I'd drive!" I've loved driving ever since I got my driver's license, and I even want to drive when I go grocery shopping.
"OK."
After You agreed, I happily went to get the car keys. You and I had just washed up, so we simply changed our clothes, rinsed our mouths, and went out happily.
It takes about a day to drive from the wisteria vineyard.
How could the wisteria have gone to such a far place? It seems our psychic shop has spread quite far.
"You, I'll drive for a bit, you drive for a bit."
"Why? You can drive it yourself."
We're not ordinary people, so driving for a day won't be particularly tiring.
"I just wanted you to experience the joy of driving too." Although You wouldn't say it, I knew that You definitely loved driving.
He's the kind of driver who likes to speed; if I weren't watching him, he could drive a car like a plane.
"No need, you can drive it." You, just like I thought, refused me in a reserved manner, pretending not to like it.
"Oh dear, I get tired after driving for a while too. Let's take turns."
"Okay, sure." You nodded in agreement.
After driving for a while, I left the city and got on the highway. It was evening now, and not a holiday, so there weren't many cars on the highway, which made me feel safe to drive.
Actually, You and I aren't afraid of car crashes. Even if the car explodes, You and I will be unharmed inside. The main concern is other people. If I crash into someone else, it's hard to say what will happen to the other person who is just a mortal.
As I drove, I opened the window to enjoy the breeze, while my favorite music played on the car stereo.
Life is wonderful.
I drove until just as dawn was breaking the next day, then handed the car over to You.
Last night, I bought a lot of food at a gas station and put it in my car.
Yu Yi touched the steering wheel, and the excitement in his eyes was unmistakable.
"Drive slowly, I'm going to eat something."
"Okay." You nodded slightly, the excitement in her eyes fading and replaced by composure.
If I hadn't reminded You beforehand, I doubt I would have been able to put any potato chips in my mouth.
You kept an eye on me and drove exceptionally smoothly.
I not only ate the snacks myself, but I also put them into You's mouth.
"You eat too." I put the cookie to You's lips.
You opened her mouth and swallowed the biscuit in one gulp.
"Is it good?" I asked with a smile, looking at You's expression.
"It's delicious." You turned her head and looked at me with a gentle smile, her eyes filled with tenderness.
"Hehe, that's good."
A bag of cookies, I ate one at a time, and it was gone in no time.
After eating and drinking my fill, I felt drowsy and fell asleep leaning back in my chair.
Before I fell asleep, I felt the car become much smoother. It seemed that You wanted me to fall asleep peacefully, so she slowed the car down completely.
He is such a gentle and considerate man.
When I woke up again, I saw the sunset in front of the vehicle. The sun, which was about to sink, was still using its last bit of strength to cling to the mountain peak, wanting to give the world its final tenderness.
"It's so beautiful."
Seeing that I was awake, You turned around and looked at me gently, saying, "Yes."
You and I exchanged a smile, and I silently touched one of You's hands.
"You need to be careful driving like this."
You glanced at me sideways and teased, "I knew you'd still try to pull me along."
I chuckled and then let go of You's hand.
"How much longer until we arrive?" I glanced at the navigation; it seemed like we still had some time.
"About six hours left."
Six hours? It seems the car really did drive very slowly while I was asleep.
“You can drive a little faster now.” I smiled, my eyes crinkling. “I bet Qingzhen is getting impatient.”
As soon as I finished speaking, the car shot off like an arrow.
As the car accelerated, You's lips curled up slightly, and her eyes revealed undisguised excitement.
I knew You liked racing.
After You's intervention, the six-hour journey was shortened by half, and they arrived at their destination in just three hours.
I quickly pulled out my phone and called Qingzhen, "Qingzhen, where are you? We're almost there."
"Okay, I'll come pick you up." Qingzhen's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.
Not long after I hung up the phone, I saw Qingzhen standing not far ahead, waving at us.
The environment here is a completely different world from that in the city; the roads are still dirt roads.
I got out of the car first, and You followed me out after parking the car.
"Qingzhen, what are you doing here?"
"What?" Qingzhen probably didn't hear clearly because she had just gotten close.
"Why did we come to such a far place?" I looked around. This really was a backward little mountain village, with mountains right next to us.
“A college student told me about it. He came to his grandmother’s house for summer vacation and encountered this. He had consulted many people, but none of them worked. After hearing about our psychic shop, he came here.”
"So, what exactly happened?" Qingzhen and I talked as we walked.
Time is a strange thing. At first, I didn't like Qingzhen and always felt that there was something strange about her. But after spending so many days together, I actually started to like Qingzhen. At least I didn't feel as resistant as I did at the beginning.
"Sigh," Qingzhen sighed and said, "You'll see when you come with me."
"Is that so?" I looked at Qingzhen's extremely solemn expression and knew that things might not be so easy or simple.
I followed Qingzhen and soon we reached the entrance of the mountain village.
A few young people were standing at the door, gathered in twos and threes, talking about something.
