Chapter 1040: Chapter 1036 Special Route

The three of them sat on the bench and rested for about twenty minutes. Yang Caiyun felt they had rested enough and suggested they continue their journey.

Chen Yang naturally had no objections, but the main thing was to see how well Xia Qianqian had rested.

"I’m about ready too, let’s keep going." Xia Qianqian said, brimming with energy.

"Alright, let’s go then."

Xia Qianqian was full of vigor as she stood up, so Chen Yang didn’t hesitate and led the way, as they continued ascending the steps up the mountain.

However, they barely took two steps before hearing a pleasant voice coming from behind.

"Tourists taking the Primitive Forest Route, please gather here. Prepare briefly, we’re departing soon!"

Upon hearing the voice, Chen Yang, Xia Qianqian, and Yang Caiyun all turned back to look.

Since they’d just started climbing the steps, the trees hadn’t obscured their view yet, so they could see it was the peculiar tour guide Chen Yang had mentioned earlier.

"Primitive Forest Route? What’s that route?"

Xia Qianqian asked curiously.

Chen Yang chimed in, "Maybe it’s a special route."

"Should we go check it out, Qianqian? It might be more interesting," Yang Caiyun suggested with a smile to Xia Qianqian.

Xia Qianqian hesitated briefly, then nodded, "Alright, let’s go find out."

After that, Xia Qianqian quickly ran back, and Chen Yang and Yang Caiyun exchanged a smile before walking back down the steps to the tour guide.

By this time, a lot of people had gathered around the tour guide.

There were about twenty people, mostly young people and some couples.

Most of them were carrying a backpack, and each had a wooden stick.

These are simple hiking sticks bought from a shop; when Chen Yang was buying stuff from the shop, the owner recommended them to him.

At the time, he felt the path was relatively easy and not tiring, so he didn’t get one.

"Tour guide, what is this Primitive Forest Route? Is it fun?" Chen Yang asked the tour guide after glancing around at the people.

The tour guide looked over and replied with a smile, "Dear guest, our Primitive Forest Route is a rather undeveloped route. You won’t know what animals or scenery you’ll encounter on the way..."

This beautiful tour guide was very professional, quickly diving into a well-rehearsed explanation of their professional routes to Chen Yang.

After listening, Chen Yang, Xia Qianqian, and Yang Caiyun understood.

It turned out that this so-called Primitive Forest Route was an undeveloped path.

The route offered the most primitive forest scenery along the way, and there were opportunities to see many unique animals.

However, this was also based on luck, and there was no certainty in what you might encounter.

After listening to the tour guide, Chen Yang had no interest whatsoever.

To him, this so-called Primitive Forest Route was no different from his usual mountain treks, so it naturally didn’t pique his interest.

But Xia Qianqian and Yang Caiyun were different.

The mother and daughter had never ventured into the Primitive Mountain before, and after hearing what the guide said, they were immediately intrigued.

"Uncle Chen Yang, this route seems fun. How about we join in on this route?" Xia Qianqian asked Chen Yang excitedly.

Although Chen Yang wasn’t interested, since Xia Qianqian wanted to go, he naturally agreed with a nod.

"Sure, if you want to go, let’s go together."

"Thank you, Uncle Chen Yang!"

Xia Qianqian thanked Chen Yang with a smile, then quickly turned to the guide, "Tour guide, can the three of us sign up too?"

"Of course, little beauty, you’re welcome to join. But we’re leaving soon, so you better prepare quickly, as our route is undeveloped and there are no shops along the way," the guide said with a smile.

"Alright, please wait for us a moment while we get ready."

Hearing this, Xia Qianqian quickly pulled Chen Yang and Yang Caiyun along to the shop to stock up.

They bought some water, snacks, and the like.

They also purchased three wooden sticks to assist in their trek and for protection.

After buying what they needed, Xia Qianqian hurriedly pulled Chen Yang and Yang Caiyun back to join the group, afraid that the guide would leave without them.

The beautiful tour guide patiently waited for them.

Seeing Chen Yang and the others arrive, she stood up.

"Everyone’s here, let’s head out!"

"Alright."

Hearing the guide’s words, the others in the group stood up too, made quick preparations, and set off with the guide.

The tour guide held a flag and led the group at the front.

She led the group of more than twenty people to the side of the mountain steps.

Beside these steps, there was a barely noticeable small path if one didn’t look carefully.

This was the starting point of the so-called Primitive Forest Route.

It wasn’t paved with concrete; it was the kind of pure natural mountain trail.

However, the path was relatively clean and wide, making it fairly comfortable to walk on, not too unpleasant.

"Dear travelers, our route here is a pure natural path, stretching over ten kilometers long, with no developed facilities, and without any landmarks or route signs, so please stay close to the group. Getting separated in the primitive forest is a serious issue..."

The tour guide led the group and used a megaphone to give explanations at the front.

Her voice was very pleasant, and her commentary was professional, so the group enjoyed listening.

Even Chen Yang quietly listened to her commentary throughout.

Chen Yang was listening attentively, just for the fun of it.

After all, for this kind of mountain, there probably wasn’t anyone more familiar with it than him on-site.

But after a while of listening to the guide’s talk, Chen Yang suddenly realized she seemed incredibly familiar with the path.

It felt as though she had walked it many times herself, just as he had.

Curious about her, Chen Yang refrained from striking up a conversation or asking questions.

Quietly, he stayed with Yang Caiyun and Xia Qianqian in the group, listening to her explanations and enjoying the scenery and leisure of the mountains.

Like this, they walked for over an hour.

Throughout the hour, they walked comfortably and indeed saw many things they wouldn’t normally see.

Things like wild rabbits, deer, and squirrels, even admiring many beautiful mountain flowers.

The walk along this trail was quite enjoyable.

However, just when everyone was still eager to continue, the weather suddenly turned gloomy.

In the sky not far off, dark clouds began to drift towards them.

Seeing this, everyone’s good mood was dampened instantly.

"Why did the weather change so suddenly? Is it going to rain?"

"No way, such a nice day, and it’s going to rain just like that."

"Should we keep going or return now?"

...

Buzzing with discussions, the group wasn’t sure what to do next.
