While sitting down, he also took out the prepared mineral water and began drinking heartily.

By this time, it had been about forty to fifty minutes since they started climbing the mountain.

The mineral water was still icy cold.

The exhausted and hot group took a sip of the icy water, and there was no describing how refreshingly sour it felt.

“Ah!

That’s refreshing.

It would be even better if there were a mountain spring pool right now,” Chen Yang said with a laugh.

Hearing about a pool, the three girls started to daydream too.

“Yeah, if there were a pool, I would definitely jump right in.

It’s so hot,” Li Han said, fanning herself with her hand as she smiled.

Yang Ruoxi didn’t join in the conversation, continuing to drink her mineral water.

Just by looking at her hot, flushed cheeks, you could tell she was extremely tired.

Chen Yang looked at her and joked, “Ruoxi, didn’t you come with such high spirits?

How come you’re struggling all of a sudden?

Can you still walk?”

Yang Ruoxi knew Chen Yang was teasing her.

So she gave him a glare in response.

“Hmph, who says I can’t do it?

I’m just pausing for a short rest.

‘Work and rest in harmony to go further,’ do you understand?” Yang Ruoxi retorted.

Chen Yang just laughed heartily at her response.

“Alright, if you say it’s about work and rest in harmony, then it is,” he conceded.

Afterward, no one spoke anymore.

Once they had sufficiently rested under the big tree, the group set off again.

The mountain trail wasn’t steep, and the gradient was gentle.

However, it was very long.

It truly tested one’s endurance.

Moreover, once they passed through the peripheral area, there were no paths in the mountains.

If they wanted to continue deeper, Chen Yang had to forge ahead with a machete, clearing the way.

It was quite troublesome.

Nevertheless, none of them quit, still looking forward to the trip.

They were hopeful to encounter something fun in the mountains.

Even if they didn’t find anything interesting, they would just consider it a camping trip in the mountains.

Chen Yang led the three girls, walking and pausing intermittently, for about three to four hours in the mountains.

By after 4 PM, Chen Yang finally found a suitable place to set up camp.

It was a small hill.

The top of the hill was a relatively open area.

There were fewer trees around, and not many shrubs.

In the mountains, such a spot was the best to set up camp.

With fewer shrubs, the safety risks were much lower, and mosquitoes and insects were consequently less of a nuisance.

Chen Yang surveyed the surroundings, then turned to the three girls, “Let’s settle here for today.

Let’s get the tent set up first, and then we can handle dinner and look for a water source.”

By this time, the three girls were extremely tired.

Each was drenched in sweat…

As soon as they heard that they were setting up camp there, they all nodded eagerly.

“Okay, let’s stay here.

The scenery around here is pretty nice, and since it’s on a small hill, it should be quite cool at night.”

Li Han nodded in agreement.

“Seeing this, I’m reminded of the last time we camped.

The environment was similar to this place, but back then we were at the edge of the mountains.

Now we are already deep inside,” Chen Yang remarked, unloading his backpack and looking around.

The three girls sat down to rest, and hearing what Chen Yang said, they too looked around.

Most of the surroundings were grassy areas, with just a few sparse big trees around.

Additionally, this place was at the peak of the small hill, allowing a view of the evergreen mountains all around.

The geographic position was also quite high.

So the mountain breeze was not mild.

Blowing against the skin, it felt very comfortable.

“Yes, last time we camped, it was in a place like this!

But unfortunately that night, it rained heavily,” Yang Ruoxi recalled with a pout.

“Heh, last time we didn’t check the weather before we went out.

Today I checked before leaving, and it should be sunny for the next few days, so you can all rest easy,” Chen Yang chuckled.

After sitting down to rest for a while, Chen Yang was the first to stand up.

It was getting late, and it was time to start setting up the tents.

Chen Yang opened the backpack he had brought, and then took out the tent.

Last time, when camping with Li Han and Wu Kexin, it was Chen Yang who set up the tent by himself, so he was quick to get it up this time.

In no time, the shape of the tent had taken form.

By then, the three women had rested enough and came over to help.

“Ruoxi, Kexin, Li Han, I can handle the tent by myself; you should go gather some firewood from around here,” Chen Yang said.

“Hmm…

okay.”

The three women nodded in unison and then went off to collect firewood.

The area was surrounded by pristine forests and mountains, and it was rarely visited by people.

As such, firewood was not something you had to search for, as it could be found all over the place.

Soon, the three women returned, each carrying a large pile of firewood.

By that time, Chen Yang had also finished setting up the tent.

Since they brought quite a few things up the mountain, they only brought one large tent this time.

However, the tent was spacious enough to sleep four people without much pressure.

After getting the tent sorted out, the next step was to start a fire and prepare the food.

Chen Yang first carefully organized the food they had brought with the three women.

When they began with Li Han and Wu Kexin’s backpacks, the contents were quite normal.

They were simple meats, some bucketed noodles, and other convenient foods.

But when they got to Yang Ruoxi’s supplies, things got a bit weird.

Yang Ruoxi had not only brought a large amount of meat, a bag of lobsters, but also several bottles of wine and spirits.

Looking at those items, Chen Yang laughed and cried in exasperation, “Ruoxi, why did you bring all this up here?”

Yang Ruoxi answered naturally, “To eat, of course!

We’re here to enjoy our camping trip!

We can’t do without good food and drinks.”

Chen Yang was again amused but didn’t say much.

Since it was all brought here, what more was there to say?

After sorting out the food, Chen Yang immediately dug a fire pit beside the tent.

To use for cooking.

Starting a fire on a mountain slope was dangerous, as even a small wind could blow sparks away.

You had to be extra careful in these mountains.

Once the pit was ready, Chen Yang signaled the three women to wait there while he went out to find a water source.

A good meal was essential, and since they had almost finished the bottled water they brought, it was necessary to replenish it.

“Don’t wander off, okay?

These mountains are vast, and if you get lost, it would be very hard to find you,” Chen Yang earnestly instructed before he left.

After a break, the fatigue on the three women’s faces disappeared, and they became excited again.

Especially Yang Ruoxi.

She was exhausted when they arrived, but after resting for just a short while,

she was fully revived.

“Go on without worrying!

We’ll definitely stay put here, maybe just pick some mushrooms nearby at most,” Yang Ruoxi replied with a laugh to Chen Yang, then immediately pulled Wu Kexin and Li Han, “Let’s take photos!

I suddenly feel the surroundings are so beautiful.”

Wu Kexin and Li Han were also relaxed and fully revived.

They eagerly joined in, “Yeah, let’s do it!

Taking photos in the pristine nature and posting them on our social circle is sure to get a lot of likes.”

Seeing the three women’s excitement, Chen Yang was also in a good mood.

He had been busy for a while, and the pressure was not light.

The primary purpose of this trip was to let everyone relax.

Chen Yang left the mountain bag and went to look for a water source with Brother Diao.

Living on the edge of the mountains for years, Chen Yang naturally knew where to find a water source in the mountains.

About half an hour after leaving the mountain bag, he found a small stream in a depression near the mountain bag.

After tasting the clear water of the stream himself,

he analyzed the composition in the water with the Medical King’s Scripture.

Seeing that it met the drinking standards, Chen Yang finally relaxed and began to fill his containers with water.

Afterward, he returned to the mountain bag with the water.
