On the rewards for successfully defeating a boss

Chapter 61 Where is the mountain here?

Lin Xixi walked to Qi Yu and looked down, only to realize that this was a man-made stone staircase. The irregular flat stones extended downward in a winding manner until they were buried in the sand.

Because of the angle, it is difficult to see that there is a road here from the direction you came in. It is very dangerous to get close to the cliff corner. If you have never been here, you probably won’t get so close to check it out. You still need someone who has been here to lead the way.

Everyone followed Qi Yu and walked down carefully, not fast.

Although the stones have been trimmed, some of the stones are of different sizes and are not even as wide as the shoes, so it is not easy to walk on them. In some places, you even need to turn sideways to find the angle to step steadily.

Lin Xixi has always performed exceptionally well in dangerous and exciting places, and this time was no exception. She was originally just following behind Qi Yu, but when she reached a wider place, she seized the opportunity to go around and became the first one.

So, when her feet touched the sand, the group of people behind her were still trembling, supporting each other halfway.

"How come she's so fast?" Sun Cheng grabbed Yu Wangxi's shoulders and tried to support himself.

Sun Cheng's sense of balance was not very good, and he was trembling as he stood on the stone surface. He was holding Yu Wangxi in front and Chen Qian behind. The two of them were forced to act as crutches for him, one on top and one on the bottom.

Qi Yu and Ke Wu in front were holding hands. Because they had experience, they were much faster than them and were now approaching the beach.

"Be careful and don't keep shaking." Yu Wangxi could feel the slight tremor on his shoulders and couldn't help but speak.

"A thousand days of life depends on this moment, don't you? Just be quiet and act like a crutch." Sun Cheng's legs were weak, and his confidence was lacking. Looking down from above, this road clearly wasn't that long. Why was it so painful to walk on it?

"We'll be there in a little while. No need to be so nervous..." Chen Qian's hand was held tightly by Sun Cheng, so tightly that it hurt his hand, but he couldn't hit Sun Cheng, so he could only endure it for the time being.

Sun Cheng finally finished this section of the trail and stood on the flat beach again, still holding Yu Wangxi's shoulders, relying on him to steady himself.

"We're already standing on flat ground, why are your legs still weak?" Yu Wangxi had no choice but to drag Sun Cheng towards where the waves were crashing.

"It was the same thing at the amusement park last time. Bro, your weakness is so easy to spot." Lin Xixi was in high spirits, striding after the two of them and muttering, "If someone wanted to kidnap you, they could just invite you to a place like this and tie you up without any tricks."

"Our Xiao Yu will definitely come to rescue me, so it doesn't matter if I'm kidnapped." Sun Cheng waved his free hand and protested in front of Lin Xixi, then lowered his head to rub Yu Wangxi's head, "Right, our Xiao Yu."

"I may not be able to do it. I'm too short." Yu Wangxi didn't give him face. He shook his shoulders, broke free from Sun Cheng's arm, and took two quick steps forward.

Sun Cheng was half leaning against him, but suddenly lost his support and swayed uncontrollably, almost sinking into the sand. After finally regaining his balance, he chased after Yu Wangxi and clung to him, "Why is this happening? Am I not your most important father?"

"Eh... so disgusting..." Lin Xixi was frightened by the shout, her face wrinkled together, and she froze in place for a long time, "Ah, goose bumps."

We deliberately chose a cooler time to set out, so it wasn't long before the sky started to turn yellow.

Qi Yu placed Ke Wu in the middle of the beach, and squatted not far away, taking in the sunset and the silhouettes, snapping photos. Ke Wu just smiled, looking at the camera, acting as a model.

"How about raising your head a little, just a little bit." Qi Yu waved his hand upwards, directing the model, "That's it!"

"So you are at the beach now?" Chi Mu asked, looking at the azure color on the small screen of his mobile phone.

Chen Qian didn't expect that right after he sent the picture he took and before he had time to type, a video call came in the next second.

The camera was facing the sea. Chen Qian, who heard the question, looked at Chi Mu's face and nodded. After the action was finished, he realized that Chi Mu couldn't see it, and said again: "Yes, I came to the beach today. It's beautiful, right?"

"It's very beautiful and makes people feel good. But if I can see something more beautiful, I will feel even better." Chi Mu's words were ambiguous, and there was a hint of deep meaning in his smile.

In fact, Chen Qian didn't quite understand what Chi Mu meant, so he asked, "What is more beautiful? I want to make you feel better."

"You'll know once you flip the camera." Chi Mu said, the smile on his face widened, and the deep meaning became clear after being revealed.

"Hmm, so that's why..." Chen Qian pointed at the icon with two small arrows on it. The blue viewfinder in the upper right corner changed color. When he saw his own face, he realized it belatedly. A hint of shame crept up his face. He avoided Chi Mu's gaze and whispered, "Then take a look. Are you feeling better now?"

"Well, I feel like it doesn't matter even if Old Wu sends me ten documents. I will open all of them with a smile." Chi Mu looked at the person on the phone, his fingers gently stroking his black hair from a place he couldn't see.

The red sunlight shining on Chen Qian's face echoed the youthful innocence of the boy. The wind ruffled his long hair, and with the upturned corners of his mouth, he looked very bright. "Really? That's great. But isn't it almost time to get off work? If you really send it in, won't dinner be delayed?"

"That's true." Chi Mu lowered his head with a smile, and then his eyelids slightly lifted, his attention turned to the corner of the picture, "But, is there anyone still hiking here this late?"

This sudden and incoherent remark startled Chen Qian. He said in confusion, "Where is the mountain here?"

"There's someone standing behind you." Chi Mu said as he looked at the black figure swaying from time to time on the corner of the cliff behind Chen Qian.

"Behind?" Chen Qian turned his head and looked. There was indeed a person standing on the high cliff corner, looking down. The height of the third or fourth floor overlapped with the peak of the mountain not far away, and it really looked like halfway up the mountain. He put the phone farther away, trying to show the whole view of this cliff corner. "No, that's not a mountain. It's because this place is too low. We just came down from there."

Chen Qian was still demonstrating the structure of this place, moving slowly with his phone, trying to cover as much of the part behind him as possible. Through the phone, he saw Lin Xixi walking towards him quickly not far away.

"Chen Qian, it's that guy again, the one in black we met at the market." Lin Xixi suddenly ran over and tugged at Chen Qian with a serious expression. Her phone displayed a photo taken at the cliff edge. The person in the picture had been magnified several times, making it a little blurry. "I said he was weird. There's no way a tourist could get here alone. It's so difficult to walk through all the twists and turns."

Chi Mu listened to Lin Xixi's words and asked before Chen Qian spoke, "Has that person been following you?"
