Chapter 50 The Sinkhole [1]
"Going on vacation again? How long are you going this time?!"
At home, at dinner time, on the dining table.
Hearing what Hu Long said, He Yanling asked reluctantly.
"Don't go. How about Mom takes you on a trip abroad in a couple of days?"
Hearing that tone of voice used to coax a child.
Even Hu Long was speechless.
"Children are growing up and have their own things to do; don't interfere too much!"
Hu Chengwen said from the side.
Regarding what Hu Long said about going on a trip for a while.
If this had happened before, Hu Chengwen might have had some objections and agreed with what his wife said.
But things are different now.
His son has already entered that circle.
It's far more promising than inheriting his family business.
He naturally had his own things to do, and he certainly couldn't hold the other person back.
"Do you have enough money? If not, just tell me!"
Hu Chengwen patted Hu Long on the shoulder.
It felt like in just a few days, his son had become much stronger and even taller than him.
"OK!"
Hu Long nodded.
Although the "father's" attitude wasn't bad at first, it was definitely not something he cared about, given his "mental illness."
After all, in the other party's mind, the original body was probably already half-crippled.
It's not that the other party disliked the original owner; after all, they had never mistreated the original owner.
However, he is more like a competent businessman than a father.
Very rational, able to distinguish between advantages and disadvantages.
She treats even her own son the same way.
Based on the original owner's situation at the time and the known information, Hu Long was certain that Hu Chengwen had already noticed Xue Wu's abnormality.
However, the other party did not expose the truth, but instead made a request based on family background reasons, thus consuming the other party's attention.
This was tantamount to giving Xue Wu hope, using it as a delaying tactic to prevent him from taking extreme actions.
Hu Long even had a darker suspicion.
From his current observations, Hu Chengwen has a strong desire for extraordinary power.
When it was discovered that the Miwu route was impassable.
The other party may have still been hoping to obtain the old techniques from Xue Wu at that time.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have remained completely inactive.
Of course, this is just Hu Long's guess, and dwelling on this point is meaningless to him.
Since he lifted the tripod during the ancestral sacrifice and became the "hammer bearer",
The other party's attitude towards him changed drastically in an instant.
The scales of that shifted attitude had tipped back onto him, and the feeling was quite obvious.
"Going out is fine, but it would be better to bring someone with you to take care of things, so I can feel more at ease."
He Yanling said.
"No need, that would make me feel uncomfortable."
Hu Long refused outright.
Speaking of it.
He changed the subject and brought up another matter.
"I probably don't need to say more about Xue Wu's family."
He ignored Hu Zhaowei's paused eating.
Hu Long continued.
"I just saw the news; the murderer who killed Xue Wu's family is dead."
"The Xue family has ties to a cult. Just to be on the safe side, I've already spoken to the main family compound. It would be best if you moved out of here and stayed at the main family compound for a while."
Among the family members, He Yanling and Hu Zhao treated him the best.
Even though Hu Chengwen may not have been a good father in some ways, he did not mistreat him in any way.
Although Hu Long knew that all of this was because of the original owner of the body, not because of him.
However, what makes us human is that we still have certain bottom lines.
No matter how low this bottom line is, it must always exist.
Therefore, it's impossible for him to know there was danger and remain indifferent, watching several people die.
He offered reminders and assistance within his capabilities, but did not recommend doing so.
The family compound, as the name suggests.
It is the place where family members and relatives live.
There were armed guards patrolling and guarding the area, and the Hu clan's secret warriors also lived there.
It has an extremely high safety factor.
However, it's not very convenient to live there and it's not located in Huanyang City.
In addition, the family was used to living in such a big villa, and they felt free at first, so they didn't choose to move there.
"Your speculation is not without merit. We'll be there right away."
You'd better not go out either, come with us.
Upon hearing Hu Long's suggestion, Hu Chengwen's expression hardened.
He wasn't stupid; he immediately understood Hu Long's unspoken meaning and became even clearer about the insidious nature of that old technique.
"No need, I can protect myself."
Hu Long shook his head.
"……Oh well."
Hu Chengwen opened his mouth, but ultimately swallowed back his words of persuasion.
His observations over this period of time showed him that Hu Long had matured a lot and would not do things he was not sure of.
Then Hu Chengwen did some ideological work with Hu Zhao and He Yanling.
After dinner, I gathered all the household servants and gave them the day off.
The family of five then immediately set off for their ancestral home in the neighboring city of Yantai.
The journey wasn't long, just over a hundred kilometers, and they didn't bring anything extra.
Anyway, the family compound has everything, and even if it doesn't have it, you can buy it.
……
Qi Province.
This place is located in a basin, with many famous mountains and rivers.
Therefore, it is also a region with an extremely developed tourism industry.
Xiaoyan Tiankeng is not small; it is a huge sinkhole.
It used to be a famous tourist attraction.
However, for some reason, it was closed after some people died, and tourists were prohibited from entering.
At this moment, the sun hangs high in the sky, and bright sunlight shines down.
On a rock near the Xiaoyantiankeng.
A figure carrying a black hiking backpack appeared.
Hu Long had traveled all day to get here.
He came here, naturally, to find snake bones to obtain source value.
As for the Tongbi Club...
After mastering the standing mountain stake technique.
In reality, there is no mandatory requirement to go or not.
Therefore, it does not prevent Hu Long from going out.
He stood on high ground, looking down.
The Xiaoyan sinkhole has a total height of nearly 300 meters from its edge to its bottom.
Below is a lake, as well as a large area of trees and pebbles. Standing on the high ground and looking down, it is a lush green expanse, resembling a small ecosystem.
Perhaps it's because it had rained here not long ago.
A faint rainbow could be seen stretching across the sky above the sinkhole.
Just then.
His gaze sharpened, fixed on a certain spot.
"There's someone here?"
Because the weather is bright and sunny.
Furthermore, after breaking through to the Body Forging Realm.
His physical constitution was strengthened, and some of the original owner's nearsightedness disappeared, making his eyesight excellent.
Standing here, because of the angle.
You can see several blurry figures on the lakeside below, along with a gray tent and wisps of smoke rising from it.
Because of the unique nature of Xiaoyan Tiankeng, there are no steps leading down, only steep cliffs, making it impossible for ordinary people to go down. There are no railings or fences on the side.
However, this does not mean that some outdoor adventurers will not venture into it to explore.
If you're lucky, you'll be fine; if you're unlucky, you'll die.
This is true both in my past life and here.
There are many similar news stories.
However, there are always some people who know the danger is very high, but still like to court death.
He didn't concern himself with it, as long as the other party didn't bother him.
I looked away and glanced around.
Not far from him, on one side, stood a rusty iron plaque.
The lettering on the sign was faded and barely legible:
"The cliffs are deep and steep, and there is poisonous miasma inside. Do not approach."
Ignoring the warning on the sign, he took a bundle of climbing rope from his backpack.
Wrap one end of the rope around a tree about the thickness of a bucket several times, tie it into a secure double knot, and then tug it hard to make sure it was secure.
The other end is tied to the safety belt around one's waist, and the rope length and descent device are adjusted.
He turned to face the rock wall, slowly moved backward, and his body gradually became suspended in the air.
At first, he was unsteady and his figure swayed slightly.
The rock face was covered with slippery moss and ferns, and since it was his first time trying to descend like this, his movements were inevitably clumsy.
But this did not cause him any trouble.
With his excellent body coordination, Hu Long regained his balance in just a few seconds.
He braced his legs against the rock face, maintaining a certain angle between his body and the surface. He controlled the rope with his right hand and used his left hand to maintain balance, and began to descend at a steady pace.
