It took another ten hours, and Guan Ning finally reached the heart of Bashan before sunset, but because they were afraid of alerting the enemy, the two of them took small roads.

Not only is the road full of pristine forests, but because of the rain in the past few days, there have been many landslides, making the road extremely difficult to walk on.

Lou Xinyue's skirt was covered in mud, like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world.

"call!"

"Damn, we're finally here." Guan Ning let out a breath, sweating profusely.

Lou Xinyue looked up at a winding and rugged mountain range: "Is this the road you mentioned?"

"Are you sure this is the ancestral home?"

"Not sure." Guan Ning said.

Lou Xinyue's delicate and cold face suddenly fell, and she said speechlessly: "You are not sure why you brought me here. There is only one day left."

"Don't worry."

"It should be here. I've been there before. Based on the direction of the sun at that time, I judged the mountain to be in this direction."

"But Bashan is too big and connects many mountain ranges. We may need to look for it." Guan Ning said.

Lou Xinyue frowned: "This is not just big!"

Looking up, the mountains are stacked and the vegetation is lush. Walking is already difficult, and one has to climb the almost vertical steep slope with no handrails and hundreds of meters high. Even an experienced herbalist would not dare to guarantee that he can climb up.

Guan Ning gritted his teeth and said, "I have no choice but to give it a try. Time waits for no one!"

"It's already dark. If we can't find the place our ancestors pointed us to the day after tomorrow, we'll only have one option left, and that's to kidnap someone."

"This is risky, and Brother Nie will never be able to return to Bashan. The hard work of our ancestors will become the dowry of Long Yun, this unfilial son!"

"This is the worst-case scenario!"

Lou Xinyue frowned. This result was obviously unacceptable. "Then let's go."

"Come up." Guan Ning squatted down.

"What are you doing?" Lou Xinyue was stunned.

"I'll carry you!" Guan Ning said.

Lou Xinyue's face was filled with surprise: "You want to carry me up this mountain?"

"What else?" Guan Ning asked seriously.

"You're crazy! This mountain is so high. It's extremely difficult to climb it alone. And you want to carry me on your back without even a rope!" Lou Xinyue shook her head and refused.

"Hurry up, don't waste time!" Guan Ning urged, and without waiting for her to refuse, he forcibly carried the person on his back.

Although Lou Xinyue is tall and has a curvy figure, she is actually very thin and light. She has flesh where it should be and where it shouldn't be, and is extremely slender.

Lou Xinyue felt warm in her heart. No amount of money or jade from others could move her, but Guan Ning's small gesture made her feel that she had chosen the right person in this life.

Even though she was an expert in martial arts and climbing a mountain was nothing to her, she was still willing to lie on his shoulders like a little girl.

"Are you afraid that I will fall?" she asked softly, looking at Guan Ning's profile.

Guan Ning grabbed Lou Xinyue's long legs with both hands from behind. Of course, it was not the first time he had done that, he had even carried them before.

"Hehe, that's not the case. You are so skilled in martial arts, how could you fall?" He said as he climbed.

"Why is that?" Lou Xinyue asked again.

"The mountain road is difficult to walk on. I'm afraid that your lotus feet will be rubbed out. It won't look good if they are broken, and how can I use them then?" Guan Ning said with a smile.

Lou Xinyue's face darkened in an instant, and the touch she had felt before vanished in an instant. She thought he loved her, but it turned out that he was just thinking about her dirty thoughts.

"what!!"

"It hurts, it hurts, stop twisting it!" Guan Nian screamed, one of his ears was twisted into a knot.

"You dirty bastard, put me down, I can walk on my own!"

“No, no!”

"Will you let it go?"

"..."

If someone else were here, they would definitely find it both amusing and annoying. At this time, two people are still fighting.

Then, the two began a night-long climb, during which Guan Ning's palms and knees were worn out. This was inevitable, after all, a flesh and blood body had to hold on to the steep cliff.

On the other hand, Lou Xinyue had been on Guan Ning's back the whole time and was not injured at all.

At dawn, we finally reached the summit.

Guan Ning was so tired that he was panting and his whole body was wet. He couldn't climb the last step and his muscles were sore.
