The Great Doctor Girl

Chapter 76: Strange Mountain Dilemma and Fog

In the afternoon, my phone suddenly rang with a call from Huang Junze. His deep and increasingly magnetic voice came over: "Luo Shu, I'm going on a business trip for a few days. Take care of yourself."

"Oh!" When I heard that he was going on a business trip, my heart trembled suddenly, and an indescribable sense of loss quietly surged in my heart.

But I suppressed my emotion and responded softly, "Then be careful."

"I'll leave Zhuo Kai to you. Feel free to contact him if you need anything." Huang Junze's tone on the other end of the phone was full of concern and worry.

"Okay, come back early."

I didn't refuse because I knew that once he made a decision, it would be difficult to change it.

After Huang Junze hung up the phone, he hurriedly embarked on a long business trip to Mount Paektu.

Planes streaked across the sky like silver lightning, trains raced along the tracks, and cars jolted violently on the winding mountain roads, turning and rushing all the way.

His heart seemed to be tugged at by an invisible and tough thread, and every time he changed his mode of transportation, his longing for me grew deeper.

He was eager to uncover the secret hidden behind me, but this separation made him feel unprecedented uneasiness in his heart.

My every smile and frown was like a dream slide, constantly playing in his mind and lingering.

The gale and thunder accompanying him were keenly aware of their master's solemn atmosphere, and followed quietly and vigilantly.

When they finally arrived at the foot of Mount Paektu, the rolling mountains were looming in the clouds, like a huge barrier erected by a mysterious world.

Huang Junze looked up at the majestic mountains, and suddenly a complex emotion of tension and anticipation for exploring the unknown surged in his heart.

However, the night spread quickly like ink-stained black silk, tightly enveloping Mount Paektu.

In this dark night, it would undoubtedly be extremely dangerous and unwise to continue moving forward.

So, Huang Junze made a prompt decision and decided to find a place to stay at the foot of the mountain first, and then embark on the difficult journey at dawn tomorrow.

This small town at the foot of the mountain has a sense of ancient and mysterious charm because it is close to Mount Paektu.

As Huang Junze's right-hand bodyguards, Ji Feng and Xun Lei quickly selected the most respectable hotel from the many hotels at the foot of the mountain.

The two stepped into the lobby. The bright yet soft light poured down, but it still couldn't dispel the slight chill brought from the mountain.

The chill was like an invisible ghost, tightly entangling them.

The receptionist smiled professionally: "Welcome, how can I help you?"

Xun Lei took a step forward calmly, his tone as firm as iron: "Open two rooms for us. They must be quiet and comfortable."

After some work on the computer, the waiter apologized, "Sorry, there's only one standard room left. The weather has been humid lately, so the room might be a little chilly, but we have a drying machine available."

Jifeng frowned and turned his gaze to Xunlei. The two exchanged a knowing look in an instant.

They knew very well that they had to arrange the most appropriate accommodation for their distinguished master Huang Junze.

Money has never been a problem for them, and such a simple room obviously cannot meet their requirements.

Hayate said, "Isn't there a better room? Money is not a problem."

The waiter's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "We have another luxury suite. It's our hotel's top-of-the-line configuration, and it's the owner's personal property. It's usually not for sale. But the owner happened to be away today, so he said it's available. The environment is excellent, but the price is quite high."

"This one." Xun Lei made a decisive decision without hesitation.

After completing the formalities, the two walked quickly into the suite and carefully checked every corner to ensure that everything was safe.

Huang Junze followed behind with steady and powerful steps.

The room is elegantly decorated, the furniture is spotless, the bed is as soft as a cloud, and the air is filled with a light natural fragrance.

Compared with the standard room mentioned earlier, it is a world of difference.

Huang Junze walked into the room, looked around, and nodded slightly at the satisfactory environment.

Jifeng and Xunlei quickly and carefully checked every corner of the room, not missing any possible safety hazards.

Huang Junze walked to the window and looked at the dark mountain shadows outside the window. His thoughts surged like a surging tide.

Ji Feng and Xun Lei were waiting silently by the side. They could clearly feel the solemnity and depth in Huang Junze's heart.

"You two go and rest!" Huang Junze ordered majestically.

"Okay, Mr. Huang, call us anytime if you need anything." They pushed open the door of Huang Junze's bedroom next door and went in to wash up.

I thought that there was only a wall between me and the boss, so I could protect him at the first moment. This was undoubtedly the safest place.

That night, despite being in a comfortable environment, everyone's heart was filled with complex emotions about tomorrow's mountain climbing trip, like a tangled mess.

In the hotel at the foot of the mountain, they are like watchmen waiting for the dawn, looking forward to the new day coming soon.

Early the next morning, after a simple breakfast, they packed their light bags and headed towards the mysterious mountain.

Walking along the winding and rugged mountain road, the stone slabs under your feet are ancient and mottled. Each stone slab is like a thick history book carefully written by time, silently recording the footprints of countless predecessors.

The trees on the roadside are lush and green, with luxuriant branches and leaves intertwined to form a natural green sky.

The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, forming golden spots, like bright gold powder sprinkled by an angel.

Occasionally, a bird would be startled and fly up, making a clear chirp that echoed melodiously in the silent forest.

After crossing the gurgling stream, the mountain road becomes steeper and more dangerous. In some places, it is almost vertical to the ground. The only simple handrails are like lonely guardians, standing firm on the cliff.

Huang Junze held the handrail tightly and climbed up with difficulty. Every step was like a fierce tug-of-war with fate.

Sweat soaked his back, but his eyes burned with a firm belief, which was to find Mr. Ping.

Jifeng and Xunlei jumped flexibly on the rocks nearby, like two agile cheetahs, relying on their keen intuition to find a safer path for Huang Junze.

They spiraled up the road and finally came to a fork in the road.

The surrounding scenery is picturesque and beautiful.

Just as Huang Junze was hesitating, a gentle mountain breeze blew by, bringing with it a faint medicinal fragrance.

He felt a stir in his heart, as if he had received a mysterious call, and walked in the direction of the medicinal fragrance without hesitation.

The faint scent of medicine was like a beacon of hope guiding him in the darkness, allowing him to find the direction forward in the confusion.

However, the road ahead is not smooth.

Although the aroma of the medicine is very close, it is difficult to find its exact source.

They continued searching for more than an hour but still couldn't find it.

At this moment, a foggy forest appeared before my eyes. When I stepped into it, my vision instantly became blurred, as if I was in an illusory dream.

The surrounding trees seemed to be endowed with strange life. Their branches danced wildly like strange tentacles, as if trying to stop Huang Junze and others from moving forward.

The wind roared softly like an angry lion. It made full use of its sharp sense of smell like a super radar to lead the way, and every step was full of vigilance and alertness.

Xun Lei is like a loyal guard, with a sharp gaze, always alert to the movements around him to prevent the sudden branches from causing harm to Huang Junze.

After finally walking out of the foggy forest, a bottomless canyon appeared before our eyes.

There is only a rickety-looking vine bridge above the canyon. The wooden planks of the bridge have rotted away, and the bridge body sways violently with the mountain wind, making a creepy creaking sound, as if the countdown to death is mercilessly ringing.

Huang Junze looked at the terrifying vine bridge, his brow furrowed, a flicker of hesitation and fear in his heart. But he knew that he had no other choice at this moment.

He took a deep breath and stepped onto the vine bridge carefully. Each step was as light as a feather, yet as heavy as a thousand pounds.

The gale and thunder followed without hesitation.

With every step forward, the vine bridge made a terrifying creaking sound. Huang Junze tried his best to maintain his balance, like a brave man dancing on a tightrope, slowly moving forward step by step.

After finally crossing the canyon, the scene ahead suddenly became foggy. Huang Junze, Ji Feng and Xun Lei stepped into it, and instantly felt a mysterious and powerful force sweeping over like a surging tide, enveloping them tightly.

This seemingly ordinary fog seemed to have its own consciousness and life, like a huge maze that trapped them.

They continued to explore forward, but the surrounding scenery was like a strange picture that was played over and over again. No matter which direction they went, they would eventually return to the starting point, as if they were trapped in an endless time loop.

Ji Feng frowned, his eyes full of vigilance and caution. He tried to find a way out with his excellent sense of direction, but every attempt ended in failure.

Xun Lei ran back and forth anxiously, letting out a low and angry roar, as if declaring war on this strange fog.

Huang Junze knew in his heart that this must be some kind of mysterious barrier or illusion set up by Mr. Ping.

However, faced with this dilemma, the three of them were helpless.

Ji Feng and Xun Lei were unwilling to sit and wait for death. They decided to use the martial arts skills and internal power techniques they had learned to try to break through the fog.

Ji Feng gathered all his internal strength, like a burning flame, and delivered a powerful blow like thunder towards the depths of the fog.

The powerful airflow was like a surging tsunami, instantly blowing away some of the fog.

However, in the blink of an eye, the fog quickly gathered again like a demon with self-repairing abilities, as if mercilessly mocking their futility.
