Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

"Did you hear that? Someone's shouting from up the mountain!"

"Yeah, yeah, I heard that too. Holy crap, who'd still be up on the mountain at this hour?"

"Weren't they all cordoned off? Could something have happened?"

"Hmm, hard to say, maybe, after all, the noise during the day was quite frightening."

"Could it be one of the brothers who didn't come down the mountain during the day?"

"Huh? They didn't come down the mountain? Then, does that mean the people who experienced it firsthand were trapped on the mountain during that massive rainstorm?"

"Look, look, law enforcement and reporters are getting ready to go up the mountain. We'll probably find out what's going on soon."

......

Although it's nighttime, it's not particularly late. With something like this happening at Xunlong Mountain, people from the surrounding area will definitely come to see what's going on.

Although they couldn't go up the mountain, it didn't dampen their enthusiasm for eating melons.

Even if you stay up all night gossiping, I bet some people would still do that.

What conclusions the reporter will reach after going up the mountain remains to be seen.

Perhaps it remains more of an unsolved mystery, just like the old legends surrounding Xunlong Mountain.

The mysterious phenomenon at Xunlong Mountain has become a minor hot topic online after so much discussion.

There are many opinions online about the Xunlongshan incident, but one opinion is the most widely accepted.

That is: The great dragon undergoes tribulation and transforms into a dragon!

After all, many people have heard that deep whistling sound, and there are even videos with the original audio online!

In addition to the towering beam of light, the dense clouds, and the torrential rain...

What else could this be but a dragon undergoing tribulation?

Therefore, the most popular and convincing view is that the dragon is undergoing tribulation.

The platform seems to be very tolerant of these trending topics, allowing them to grow unchecked!

Now, when people talk about supernatural phenomena, they're all like they've been injected with adrenaline, liking and sharing posts without anyone having to say a word.

Many videos that were reposted a second or third time went viral!

The story of the dragon undergoing its tribulation spread like wildfire for a time.

Who knows, Xunlong Mountain might become a popular tourist attraction in the future!

Of course, online discussions will not yield any definitive results.

Most people couldn't help but think of one person: Ye Chen.

People started leaving comments under Ye Chen's videos or tagging him, asking for his opinion on the matter.

We earnestly request Ye Chen to produce a science popularization video!

Even more extreme, some people went directly to the Xuanzhen Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic to "reality" with Ye Chen...

After all, Ye Chen is the number one certified person in the extraordinary realm!

He is also one of the most popular bloggers in the extraordinary field on the Internet today.

Ordinary people like them might not know what happened, but Ye Chen might!

If he makes just one science video, they'll know!

Looking at the various supernatural phenomena and unsolved mysteries today, people are increasingly convinced that the world is not as simple as it appears on the surface.

In their minds, Ye Chen gradually became a so-called authority figure.

......

What they didn't know was that Ye Chen was the one who caused this whole thing.

If they found out, they'd probably cause another huge uproar.

Ye Chen, the person in question, is still on his way back to Lucheng. He has some speculations about what's happening outside, but he doesn't care.

Ah Long was familiarizing himself with his new realm on the Xuan Tian Boat, and had no time to look at the scenery outside.

He broke through directly from a minor Qi Refining cultivator to the Foundation Establishment stage, his realm leap was as easy as taking an elevator.

For the next long period of time, we need to adapt and consolidate our current strength.

Otherwise, in the end, one still won't be able to fully unleash the power of the Foundation Establishment stage.

Fortunately, Ah Long and the others also practiced body training regularly, so their bodies were more adaptable than ordinary cultivators.

The speed of the Xuan Tian Ark on its return journey once soared to 2500 kilometers per hour.

So they quickly returned to Xiamen!

If you were taking a plane, you'd probably still be in the terminal and not yet have taken off.

Ye Chen checked the time; it was already past 10 p.m.!

Only Ye Chen's parents remained at villa 1301. Ah Long greeted Ye's parents and left first.

After all, it's getting late.

"Where have you been? Why have you been gone for so long? We specially created some space for you and Weiwei to be alone, and you just stayed out all day!" Mother Ye said with a hint of complaint.

Ye Chen coughed lightly: "Mom, I was just taking care of some important business!"

Hearing that they were getting down to business, Ye's mother stopped nagging and changed the subject with a soft hum: "Are you hurt?"

Ye Chen smiled and shook his head: "It won't be that easy for me to get hurt now!"

Mother Ye nodded: "Alright, you're all grown up now, so I won't nag you anymore. Be careful. It's good to be capable, but don't get too cocky!"

"Okay, Mom!"

Ye Chen didn't find it annoying; having someone nag him a little was a happy thing.

"Remember to text Weiwei back; she's probably worried about you. She just came over to ask if you were back yet!"

Ye's mother offered a reminder.

Ye Chen nodded, turned around, and prepared to go upstairs: "Okay, I'll go back to my room first!"

"By the way, your dad and I are planning to go back tomorrow morning, taking advantage of the last day of free highway tolls!" Ye's mother suddenly said.

Ye Chen paused for a moment, then said irritably, "The highway toll is only a few cents. Let's save it for a few more days of fun. Anyway, Aunt Xiuying is taking care of the livestock at home!"

Mother Ye laughed and said, "It's not good to trouble people for too long, and more importantly, it's not good for us old folks to stay here. It would interfere with your interactions as young people. You've had enough fun for so many days already. Anyway, your dad has a car now and can come anytime!"

Father Ye nodded in agreement: "I heard from your second uncle that Lucheng has some local specialties. Humph, I've been here for so long and all I've eaten is seafood. What's so special about it? I have to go back and ask him in person!"

Ye Chen's face twitched. Was his dad targeting him?

Okay, there are some places I can take my second uncle to, but I can't take my dad...

Anyway, he could go home very quickly if he wanted to, in the blink of an eye, so Ye Chen didn't say anything more.

The elderly are indeed more comfortable staying in the countryside.

They also have their own social circles.

Ye Chen nodded: "Sure, let's take some local specialties back with us and share them with the villagers. It's easy to just throw them in the trunk anyway!"

"You don't need to worry about these things. Your dad and I have already bought a lot today, enough to send over. Okay, hurry up and go back to your room, we need to sleep too!" Mother Ye shook her head with a smile.

......

After returning to his room and chatting with Zhou Caiwei for a while, Ye Chen opened a short video app to see how the discussion about the Xunlong Mountain incident was going.

As soon as you open the short video app, there are three small red dots in the message section.

Of course, he's gotten used to the three little red dots every day anyway.

He receives so many private messages or follows him that he can't keep up with all the messages!
