Why race if you don’t have money?

Chapter 66: The person is running, the soul is chasing (please read)
After opening the car door and getting out, Qin Lianjie felt his hands shaking. He lit a cigarette to calm himself down.

After taking a deep breath and exhaling the smoke heavily, Qin Lianjie finally calmed down and breathed a sigh of relief. The psychological pressure brought by following Chen Xiangbei just now was too great.

Qin Lianjie felt that Chen Xiangbei was now much stronger than when he ran with him to Nanyun Mountain. Could his career advancement be so fast in just half a month?
Just as Qin Lianjie was wondering what kind of "evil spirit" Chen Xiangbei was, Peng Sheng came over and asked, "Little brother, are you racing with the car in front?"

Peng Sheng naturally didn't know the relationship between Qin Lianjie and Chen Xiangbei. He could only guess based on their behavior.

Driving a performance car to a remote closed road so late at night, and at such an astonishing speed, it is likely that an underground race is taking place.

"I wanted to race, but the car in front was just exploring the way."

Qin Lianjie replied with a wry smile. It was because he had the idea of ​​catching up with Chen Xiangbei that he felt so shattered now.

As for Chen Xiangbei, this guy may not have considered himself an opponent at all, and he was really just exploring the way.

It's just that the exploration speed is only a little bit faster!

"You mean the car in front didn't run this section of road?"

Peng Sheng was stunned when he heard this. If they were just exploring the way, it meant that the other party had not escaped.

Even if one can drive through such complicated road conditions, being able to reach the speed just now can already be described as astonishing.

What does it mean to have never run?
At this moment, the same thought as Qin Lianjie's before emerged in Peng Sheng's mind.

Is this the speed a person is driving?
The two looked at each other in bewilderment, neither of them able to describe the shock in their hearts at the moment.

Not long after, the roaring sound of the engine came again, as if tearing through the night sky from far away.

Chen Xiangbei saw the Civic Type-R parked on the side of the road and several figures illuminated by the headlights. He couldn't help but feel a little confused. Why were there two more people in this remote place late at night?

With this confusion, Chen Xiangbei stepped on the brakes to slow down, and the Subaru Impreza slowly stopped in front of the Civic Type-R.

As Chen Xiangbei pushed the door and got out of the car, Peng Sheng couldn't help but extend his hand and introduce himself. "Hello, I'm Peng Sheng, the founder of Jiuli Sports. Can we chat for a few minutes?"

Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Chen Xiangbei couldn't help but recall the scene of his first meeting with Peng Sheng in his previous life. The other party was also saying similar words eagerly.

"Hello, Mr. Peng, my name is Chen Xiangbei, a driver for Huasai Sports."

Peng Sheng was a little surprised when he heard Chen Xiangbei's identity. Wasn't Huasai Sports going to go bankrupt? How could it still train drivers?

However, Peng Sheng didn't dwell on the question. Instead, he got straight to the point: "I'm being generous and calling you Xiao Chen. I saw how quickly you were exploring the area, and I think you have great potential."

"Jiuli Sports is currently looking for a sponsored driver. I wonder if you, Xiao Chen, are interested in finding out?"

Chen Xiangbei smiled at this. He was not only interested in it, but he came here just for this matter.

"Mr. Peng, what are your sponsorship conditions?"

Without beating around the bush, Chen Xiangbei went straight into the negotiation stage.

"Champion of the East China Sea Underground Competition."

After saying this, Peng Sheng paused and added: "Or running this distance in under 4 minutes and 30 seconds."

The closed section of the Donghai Underground Race is 9.6 kilometers long. Local racers Zhang Zhendong and Gao Hao have both raced here many times. This is also the inevitable advantage of local drivers in street racing.

Just like Nanyun Mountain, even though Qin Lianjie only has the strength of a professional goalkeeper, he still relied on the advantage of "geographical location" and familiarity with the mountain roads to defeat many foreign teams that came to challenge him.

Gao Hao's family was well-off and he didn't need sponsorship. In addition, he was familiar with Peng Sheng and had seen him through their experience. The fastest time for running on this closed road section at night was 4 minutes and 43 seconds.

Anyone who can run under 4 minutes and 40 seconds will have secured the title of the East China Underground Competition in advance.

Peng Sheng played a little trick and sped up the sponsorship standard by 10 seconds. He wanted to give Chen Xiangbei some intensity to see if this young man still had the potential to speed up.

"No problem, shall we run now?" Chen Xiangbei agreed on the spot. He didn't care about 10 seconds faster or slower at all.

You should know that no matter whether they are street racers, touring car drivers, or formula drivers, they are all classified as track drivers in the racing category.

However, the new route of the East China Underground Competition is more like an off-road section prepared for rally drivers.

In the early unprofessional stage of domestic professional competitions, there were many drivers who were proficient in both rally and track racing, such as Han Han, who won the double championship title.

However, this type of driver is unlikely to appear in the East China Sea Underground Competition, and will have no experience in night races.

Chen Xiangbei can proudly say that he is the only one in the country who can push the limit on this route. Other drivers can't even catch the taillights, let alone the exhaust gas!

"Xiao Chen, can I sit in the passenger seat and time the test?"

Feeling Chen Xiangbei's absolute confidence, Peng Sheng proposed the idea of ​​timing himself.

"I suggest not to."

“Does weight affect vehicle speed?”

Peng Sheng's first reaction was that Chen Xiangbei was worried that sitting on it would affect the speed.

Chen Xiangbei shook his head and asked with a complicated expression, "Boss Peng, you don't have heart disease or high blood pressure, right?"

"No."

"You don't get sick easily when riding in a car, do you?"

"will not!"

Peng Sheng felt a little "insulted". Did this young man think of himself as a middle-aged man who had never seen the world?

Although Peng Sheng himself does not know how to race cars, he is a loyal fan of Formula One cars. He once spent a lot of money to experience the track of a two-seater Formula One car, which led to his later investment in the Formula E team.

Only with passion can you devote yourself to it!
"Boss Peng, please come up."

Seeing that Peng Sheng had misunderstood him, Chen Xiangbei didn't say much. This was his own choice...

Sitting in the passenger seat and fastening his seat belt, Peng Sheng held his cell phone tightly, ready to press the timer at any time.

As Chen Xiangbei turned around and stepped on the accelerator, the Impreza STI started to speed away. Peng Sheng finally understood why the young man asked so many irrelevant questions.

Fast, it’s too fast!
Although there are no street lights, under the illumination of car lights, the roadside guardrails and planted trees have become like frames of slides.

To be honest, Peng Sheng could no longer understand how Chen Xiangbei could see the road clearly under such visual effects.

But this was not the most terrifying thing. When Chen Xiangbei reached the end of the road and turned around again, the words said by this young man made Peng Sheng "shudder."

"Boss Peng, I'm officially starting to run."

What? You mean the speed before wasn't even a real run, it was just a warm-up?

Peng Sheng opened his mouth to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he found that he couldn't speak.

Chen Xiangbei didn't notice Peng Sheng's surprised look. He took the other party's silence as a tacit understanding that he was ready. He stepped on the accelerator and started the car by releasing the clutch. The huge push on his back directly hit Peng Sheng heavily against the back of the seat.

The Subaru Impreza was like a meteor, streaking across the dark, closed road. Peng Sheng didn't even have time to close his mouth, and his hands tightly grasped any fixed objects he could hold.

If he were given another chance to choose, he would definitely not get on this car!

PS: Brothers, there will be the third chapter at noon. I have done what I promised to do in Sanjiang.
