The Underground Emperor: Starting with Running Away with His Sister-in-Law

The lead vehicle.

It was a car driven by two bearded men; they were responsible for leading the way.

Kim Hee-ah was driving Ding Xin, and they were at the back of the line. Besides the two of them, Jessica was also in the car.

Jessica initially came with Nina and the others.

But there were too many people in their car.

It's quite crowded.

Kim Hee-ah's side only had two people, so the space was larger and much more comfortable...

Take advantage of this gap.

Ding Xin asked Jessica about how she met the two bearded men.

Jessica didn't hide anything either.

Last night, while the group was having dinner at a pub, they overheard a group of people at a nearby table discussing camping.

After overhearing news about "Xiao Lu" by chance.

Jessica, being a social butterfly, took the initiative to go up and chat with the two bearded men for a while.

Then they successfully persuaded the two to take on the role of guides...

It doesn't sound like a deliberate approach; it's just a coincidence.

however.

Ding Xin still felt it wasn't that simple.

To know.

With the system's enhancement, Ding Xin's five senses were already exceptionally sharp, and coupled with his Spider Sense ability...

This is enough to explain.

Ding Xin's intuition about the two bearded men is most likely correct.

Forget it.

Perhaps he's overthinking it...

......

After driving for about two hours.

The cars in front began to slow down one after another.

Subsequently.

We turned into a fork in Highway 17.

Unlike wide highways.

This "narrow road" is truly narrow; its width is probably only enough for a small truck to pass through...

The terrain is rugged and winding, stretching as far as the eye can see.

After driving along the narrow road for more than half an hour, the car in front began to slow down again.

Then it turned onto an even smaller road.

that's it.

Driving continuously, turning continuously...

until.

The convoy drove into a dense forest...

I don’t know how long it took.

The convoy suddenly stopped.

Ding Xin checked the time; it was already three in the afternoon.

In other words.

The group had been driving for almost seven hours...

Jessica got out of the car.

Just then, they ran into two bearded men who had just arrived, and asked, "What's up? Have you arrived yet?"

They didn't rush to answer.

One of the burly men with a brown beard glanced at Ding Xin before turning to Jessica and saying, "No, but the road ahead is blocked by fallen trees, we can't get through..."

"What should I do?"

Jessica peered out to see what was happening ahead.

"We're almost there, so why don't we park the car here and walk along another path..."

Brownbeard offered his advice.

"Is the car just going to be left here like this?"

Jessica seemed a little hesitant.

We drove all the way here.

Although we haven't arrived at our destination yet.

But we're already quite deep in the area now.

Not because of anything else.

But she knew it because she had experience in the wild.

Before you've made thorough preparations for camping, how much sense of security does having a car nearby provide?

"Don't worry, it's safe to park your car here!"

Redbeard, seemingly sensing her hesitation, said, "It's getting late; we need to find a place to camp. I know a good spot nearby..."

The skill of speaking.

The others in the group also gathered around.

Upon hearing Redbeard's suggestion, someone raised their hand in agreement, saying, "That's a good idea, Jessica. We're here to camp anyway, and since the road is blocked, why don't we start here..."

Hear the words.

Jessica looked around.

Seeing that no one objected, he nodded and said, "Alright then, I'll give you ten minutes to make sure you have all your personal belongings and equipment. Be careful not to forget anything. We'll set off in ten minutes!"

Done.

Jessica then turned her gaze to the two bearded men and said softly, "Then I'll have to trouble you two for a little longer..."

Both parties had originally agreed that they would take him to the destination.

They then split up to act.

But at this moment, I really can't do without these two big beards.

At least.

They need to lead you to the campsite...

The brown-bearded man chuckled and readily agreed, "It's nothing. Helping each other is only right when you're traveling!"

......

The two bearded men weren't lying.

Led by them, the group wandered through the lush, dense forest for quite some time...

at last.
