Infinite Demon God: How can I download it if I don't have enough data?
Chapter 18 Revenge [2]
After half an hour.
The bus was parked beside a mountain road.
Hu Long got out of the car, along with several other people, including the young man who had vomited earlier.
"Brother, are you also going to Wulin Village?"
The young man looked at Hu Long, who was carrying a black backpack, and asked.
Hu Long glanced at the young man in front of him.
Although he was dressed in clean clothes, his skin was dark, and his rough hands, which were exposed from the cuffs, had thick calluses on his knuckles.
When he walks, his upper body leans slightly forward and his steps are very solid, with each step carrying a feeling of his body sinking down. His heels land first. This walking habit is to help his body stay stable, which means he must often do hard labor.
He would never have noticed such details in the past.
But ever since I downloaded that master-level hand-to-hand combat game, as time has passed...
Hu Long found that his understanding of human joints and points of force exertion was becoming increasingly profound, to the point that it had become second nature.
Therefore, this conclusion was easily drawn with just one glance.
"Yes, I'm here for sightseeing."
"That's a good coincidence. My home is in Wulin Village. Let's go together."
The dark-skinned young man acted as if he knew everyone.
He pointed to the distance along the road.
A few gray-white cement utility poles can be vaguely seen by the roadside in the distance, and wisps of smoke drifting further away.
Regarding this invitation.
Hu Long thought about it and did not refuse.
Coincidentally, he also wanted to find out more specific details.
Then, the two walked along the roadside into the distance.
During this process, the two also exchanged names.
The dark-skinned young man's name is Niu Lei.
Hu Long, on the other hand, said his name was "Wang Ting".
Before coming, Hu Long had looked up some general information about Wulin Village.
Now, through Niu Lei's words...
Hu Long's understanding of Wulin Village gradually became more concrete.
The village has more than 200 households, so it's considered a large village.
Backed by Wushan Mountain, it is currently being developed into a scenic area, taking advantage of this location.
At the same time, thanks to its geographical location near major transportation routes, it has been selected as a key target for support in new rural construction and rural revitalization.
Niu Lei, who had been struggling outside, heard that his hometown was developing well, so he decided to come back and start an orchard.
Just as the two were walking and talking.
Soon, Wulin Village came into view.
Under the big camphor tree at the entrance of the village, the old people were chatting idly while carrying their water pipes.
Beside several new buildings covered with white ceramic tiles, old houses with yellow mud walls are scattered about, and wisps of smoke rise from the gaps between the black tiles.
The entire village is built against the mountain.
The most eye-catching thing is the three-story building in the center of the village that has a sign that reads "Visitor Service Center".
The white walls and gray tiles gleamed in the afternoon sun, and the windowpanes reflected a blinding light.
Several tour buses were parked in front of the building, and red banners fluttered in the wind, reading "Wushan Secret Realm Welcomes You".
As you walk deeper along the stone path, the scenes of life become clearer.
Occasionally, you can catch a glimpse of a few tourists passing by.
Most of the houses along the road have storefronts; some sell local produce, while others display signs for "farmhouse inn".
The dried bamboo shoots and cured meat glistened with oil in the bamboo trays, and the aroma of Sichuan peppercorns and chili peppers mingled together, filling the air with a warm and inviting fragrance.
Further up the slope, more old houses appeared, with faded Spring Festival couplets still pasted on the lintels.
Some of the wooden doors were ajar, and occasionally the sound of a television and a few barks of dogs could be heard.
The village is nestled against the lush Wushan Mountain.
Further afield, the newly built hiking trail resembles a gray-white ribbon, winding its way into the forest.
At the foot of the mountain, several construction sites were underway, and the roar of mixers could be heard across the stream.
"What place is that? It's quite impressive!"
Hu Long reached out, seemingly casually, and pointed to a house in the distance.
It was a double-courtyard house with white walls and gray tiles, which stood out among the ordinary village houses.
Not only does it occupy a considerable area, but the foundation of the house is also much higher than the surrounding buildings, making it stand out from the crowd.
"That's the village chief's house."
Niu Lei looked in that direction, his tone tinged with emotion and bittersweetness.
"If we're talking about the most successful and accomplished, it has to be his children..."
He paused, a hint of undisguised envy flashing in his eyes.
Xue Wu is the same age as him, but he excelled in his studies when he was young, got into a prestigious university, settled down in a big city, and started his own company.
I heard he's dating a very wealthy heiress.
Any one of these things, taken out of context, would be enough to make anyone envious.
Soon, after the other party's explanation, Hu Long also gained a more detailed understanding of this family.
"By the way, Brother Wang, my home is not far away. Why don't you come to my house for a drink of water and a rest for a while?"
Niu Lei pointed ahead and extended a warm invitation.
"No need, I'd like to wander around by myself."
Hu Long refused outright.
"Okay, feel free to call me anytime if anything comes up!"
Niu Lei said.
Hu Long simply nodded in response.
After they separated.
He walked straight into the village.
He would occasionally be greeted by people from the village.
Clearly, these people were already familiar with his unfamiliar face and were not surprised at all.
However, these people all spoke with accents, making it difficult to understand them.
Hu Long simply nodded in response.
He didn't linger in the village, but instead walked along a mountain path on one side.
We stopped to rest on a high, rocky hillside.
Looking at that building not far away.
With its white walls and gray tiles, surrounded by an outer wall and a large iron gate several meters high, it looks more impressive than ordinary homes.
That was Xue Wu's hometown, and also where her parents lived.
Based on the information currently available, Xue Wu's parents are not ordinary people in Wulin Village; in fact, they can be said to be quite influential.
His father, Xue Hai, was the village head, and his mother, Liu, was a well-known sorceress in the surrounding area.
However, in the end, that's all there is to it.
With such a family background, it's simply impossible for her to climb up to the original owner's family.
Although marrying off a daughter is not the same as selling her, it seems unrealistic for a wealthy heiress with a net worth of hundreds of millions to marry a young man from a mountain village.
For this reason, Hu Chengwen did not directly agree to the matter between Xue Wu and Hu Zhao.
He only said that they should see if Xue Wu could make a name for himself first, and then make a decision.
Of course, none of these things mattered to Hu Long.
Even if Xue Wu really marries Hu Zhao and becomes his "brother-in-law".
He won't show any mercy.
He was concerned about something else.
That Liu was a sorceress.
If it weren't for the strange figure on his body and the skill from the remnant of the Qingnang scroll, he probably wouldn't have thought much of it.
But now, he must be wary of whether Xue Wu's parents possess any strange or unseen methods.
Therefore, it's best to be cautious when making a move, lest you make a mistake.
However, he was not entirely unprepared.
Thinking of this, he opened his backpack, revealing an object inside made of welded black steel pipes.
He held it in his hand, weighed it in his hand, and then put it back.
He obtained this through some special means, which also serves as a form of protection.
However, this thing cannot be exposed to the light of day, and the existence of guns is strictly prohibited in the Yu Kingdom.
Therefore, he doesn't want to use this thing unless absolutely necessary.
