Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality

Chapter 291 Deep Mountains_2



Lin Beichen didn't kill Qi Liuyan. Instead, he took her along to find the exact location with her help.

At the foot of the mountain, there was a small county town.

Lin Beichen rested there for a day, then asked Qi Liuyan to find a passenger bus.

In the county town, there were no fixed routes; most of the buses were run by private drivers.

Upon hearing Lin Beichen's destination, many drivers swarmed forward, all boasting about themselves.

The wooden man stomped forward, a thundering sound like Lei Ming.

Everyone immediately went silent as if their throats had been choked.

"Where exactly is the Medicine Immortal Pavilion?"

Lin Beichen asked and had the wooden man unfold the map.

Qi Liuyan pointed at the map; their destination was at least several mountain ranges away.

"From here, take a bus to Hidden Dragon Mountain, then from Hidden Dragon Mountain take another bus to Echo Mountain, and finally from Huafeng Mountain take an ox cart for five days. If there's no miasma or heavy rain in between, we should arrive at the Medicine Immortal Pavilion in about a week."

Qi Liuyan said, a touch of pride in her eyes.

Lin Beichen heard this and couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"So troublesome? Are you people mountain hermits?"

Lin Beichen said.

Mountain hermits?

Qi Liuyan was furious, glaring at Lin Beichen with great annoyance.

"Do you even know what it means to be a celestial family living deep in the mountains? Even though we live so remotely, people still travel thousands of miles to seek medicine from us.

For over a hundred years, if we weren't so secluded, we would have been infiltrated long ago!"

Qi Liuyan said angrily.

Boring woman!

Lin Beichen sneered inwardly, mentally labeling Qi Liuyan.

With such a petty nature, it's no wonder no one wanted to save her.

It's likely she didn't have many friends in the Medicine Immortal Pavilion either.

"Enough talk, let's get moving, countryfolk."

Lin Beichen said offhandedly, rolling up the map.

Qi Liuyan was livid at his words.

Hidden Dragon Mountain was a scenic spot, located deep in the mountains, but because of its beautiful scenery, it was a popular destination for mountain enthusiasts.

Qi Liuyan was so angry with Lin Beichen that she picked only the most expensive food to eat along the way, regardless of whether it suited her taste or not, ordering blindly.

For one meal, she might only eat a few bites but would order a whole table full of dishes.

Lin Beichen had a lot of money; how much could a few dishes cost?

Seeing Lin Beichen not distressed, Qi Liuyan felt both deflated and malicious.

She discovered that no matter what dish Lin Beichen ate, he would always finish the entire plate, never wasting a bit.

Eat, eat to your death. Hopefully, you'll be too stuffed to get up the next day!

Qi Liuyan thought maliciously.

The most expensive hotel in Hidden Dragon Mountain was a guesthouse owned by a mining company.

The priciest rooms weren't actually available to the public, but to show off their wealth, they listed the rooms at 99,999 a night, a price even billionaires would hesitate over.

But despite the almost unreasonable price, Qi Liuyan booked three rooms at once, each for a week's stay.

She didn't care how many days they actually stayed; she only cared about spending Lin Beichen's money.

Eating a few dishes didn't faze Lin Beichen, but she doubted he'd be unfazed by a hotel costing 100,000 a night.

However, Lin Beichen remained utterly calm.

It wasn't until they were about to enter the rooms that Lin Beichen suddenly said:

"I've been keeping track of all our expenses on this journey. I'll settle accounts with you once we reach the Medicine Immortal Pavilion."

Qi Liuyan's body trembled, glaring at Lin Beichen in disbelief.

"Lin Beichen, are you even a man?"

Qi Liuyan shouted furiously.

But Lin Beichen ignored her and went straight into his room.

Qi Liuyan stood there, silently glaring at his back, grinding her teeth in hatred.

If she had a knife, she would have stabbed Lin Beichen to death.

This guy had no sense of chivalry at all.

Throughout the journey, there were numerous opportunities to be alone with him.

She had even considered seducing him, but Lin Beichen never made a move.

She thought Lin Beichen was a gentleman, but now it seemed he was just a petty person.

Being overly meticulous in financial matters, he had no sense of nobility.

Such a person, yet blessed with extraordinary talent. It seemed like heaven was blind.

Lin Beichen didn't care about Qi Liuyan's thoughts.

He didn't mind spending money because many people were eager to give him money.

No matter how much he ate or spent, it was just moving money from Lin Beichen to another place.

To Lin Beichen, it was better to spend the money and let ordinary people benefit rather than let it rot with the big families.

Giving money directly was too ostentatious, but giving it through normal eating and drinking seemed fair, and no one thought much of it.

But he couldn't let Qi Liuyan fool around.

The hotel's furnishings were the hotel's property.

Qi Liuyan could mess around freely, but causing damages meant that the hotel staff would face criticism even if compensated.

He allowed Qi Liuyan to fool around by his side but wouldn't let her harm others.

The next morning, Qi Liuyan obediently stood at the door, waiting for Lin Beichen to wake up. After he finished breakfast, she coldly snorted:

"Do you want to check the room?"

Lin Beichen glanced at Qi Liuyan and silently walked outside.

Qi Liuyan's face turned livid.

This guy seemed to think he had her figured out.

Why was he so confident?

When they left the hotel, staff escorted them and even provided a car.

Once Lin Beichen and the others left, the hotel staff watched them longingly.

"I wonder who this young master is. He's so rich."

The lobby manager sighed.

Everyone nodded eagerly, especially those who served in Lin Beichen's room, feeling deeply moved.

"The gentleman booked three rooms for seven days each but only stayed for one night."

The lobby manager glanced around, gathered everyone, and whispered:

"The gentleman said they wouldn't be returning in the next few days. He's suggesting that the remaining money can be our tip. Count how many people were on duty last night, and we'll split the 1.8 million."

On hearing this, the employees' eyes widened with excitement, eagerly nodding.

If Lin Beichen were to return or hadn't given instructions, the lobby manager wouldn't dare do this.

Spending millions easily, they would undoubtedly be torn apart if found out.

But given his instruction, the lobby manager was willing to go along.

As the manager, he would get the largest share, and everyone else would split the rest equally.

Although there were dozens of employees, everyone still got several thousands.

Everyone was extremely grateful.

This was just a minor matter.

Lin Beichen didn't care about this.

In front of Hidden Dragon Mountain's bus station, the hotel driver helped Lin Beichen contact a travel agency. When they heard Lin Beichen wanted to go deep into the mountains, they immediately agreed.

Shortly after the driver left, a chubby man in a suit arrived in an MPV.

The moment he saw Lin Beichen, his eyes lit up.

People in the travel business, accustomed to all kinds of clients, could often gauge a client's spending power at first glance.

For ordinary people, he would recommend standard family cars, but he could tell that Lin Beichen and his group were extraordinary.

The imposing two-meter-tall man at the back was striking; his presence alone marked them as special.

Moreover, the young master, despite his ordinary looks, had a refreshing and kind presence.

Beside him was a highly memorable woman.

Despite years in the travel business, the chubby man had never seen such an impressive woman.

Qi Liuyan might not be the most stunning woman, but she was incredibly pleasant to look at.

During their brief interaction, the chubby man stole several glances at her, each time experiencing a different feeling.

This beauty seemed to exude a transcendent air, reminiscent of Little Dragon Girl from "The Condor Heroes".

"Young master, recommending an ordinary car to someone like you would be an insult. I happen to have just acquired a modified convertible special car, spacious and stylish, and most importantly, it can fit your bodyguard!"

The chubby man rubbed his hands and laughed. Just as he was about to discuss the price, Lin Beichen handed him a card.

"This card has 500,000. You can keep the surplus as a tip, and I'll pay any shortfall later."

On hearing this, the chubby man swallowed his words immediately.
