Free Web NovelChapter 992: Chapter 383: Raising the Difficulty by 1 Point (2)
Zhang Beixing spoke quite candidly.
Xu Feng’s expression also froze.
Hmm, well, okay, feeling touched for nothing, that’s fine.
"Keep climbing, don’t mind me."
After he finished speaking, Zhang Beixing swiftly moved to the side, starting to check out what might be around the area that could have made the snake guard this spot.
Xu Feng watched as Zhang Beixing truly just moved away without paying him any further attention, and words filled his throat, unable to speak.
Zhang Beixing paid no heed to Xu Feng’s expression.
It’s not like he’s a child, does he need to keep company all the time?
As Zhang Beixing flashed over, he immediately saw, sure enough, a small opening where the snake had obstructed the path.
The diameter of this opening was only just over sixty centimeters.
If someone were to crouch and crawl in, they might fit, but even crawling inside, moving freely would be quite difficult.
This opening is as small as a burglar’s tunnel, with normal adults finding it very cramped, only smaller individuals would maneuver easily here.
Could it really be a burglar’s tunnel?
This thought popped up just to be dismissed by Zhang Beixing himself.
This thing is at a thousand meters on the mountain.
Who would build a grave so high? Isn’t it usually underground?
Only some ordinary families might choose a spot on the mountain to make a small mound.
Does such a small mound hold any value to be stolen from?
Zhang Beixing was puzzled.
He glanced inside, the hole seemed very deep.
At a glance, definitely couldn’t see the end of it.
After considering, Zhang Beixing decided against crawling inside to investigate.
Not that he lacked confidence.
The main issue was that there were just too many people there.
Due to Xu Feng’s challenge of Oizaki’s Eight Challenges, more and more spectators gathered here.
Originally, there were just a few hundred tourists, but as word spread, there were now thousands, and more kept coming.
If it were just thousands, that’d be manageable.
But, damn it, there was a whole bunch of TV channels present!
CCTV, local stations, all of them!
It’s like a crowd, wave after wave.
If Zhang Beixing dared crawl.
Believe it, those cameras would immediately shoot his rear.
Zhang Beixing felt speechless, Xu Feng really stirred up quite a fuss.
When he had challenged Oizaki’s Eight Challenges and climbed the mountain, hardly anyone was around.
At most, dozens of people, maybe a hundred people noticed the event.
Not like Xu Feng, who caused such widespread attention, it’s a bit excessive, huh.
Zhang Beixing decided against it.
Descending, ascending swiftly, descended equally swiftly.
After coming down, Zhang Beixing took another look at the opening’s position, although there was little chance someone else would snatch it, despite the slim odds.
Nonetheless, Zhang Beixing chose to wait there and notify The Ninth Bureau headquarters.
After contacting his secretary, Zhang Beixing directly informed him of the location and lodged his request.
...
...
...
"We were watching the live broadcast comfortably, why are we suddenly called over?"
"Maybe the Minister thought TV wasn’t clear enough, so he let us get closer to witness this historical moment?"
"Hmm... I think you have a point, sounds like complete nonsense."
"I agree, I feel pondering over these devices, what the Minister really wants."
At this time, Huang Hai carried two large boxes on his back, incredibly heavy, and he couldn’t figure out what the Minister wanted them for.
The boxes were sealed, with new locks, password locked.
No idea what was inside.
He didn’t dare open them.
Unlocking a password lock was child’s play for his Grandmaster Martial Artist strength.
Forget these boxes.
Even stronger safes could be forcefully cracked by sheer strength.
But, well, the lock wasn’t what locked them — Zhang Beixing’s presence locked them.
If it were only these boxes, their doubts wouldn’t be so strong.
The main thing was a helicopter had just gone by, carrying even more supplies...
When the helicopter took off, he caught a glimpse, good lord, all bombs!
That thing...
Huang Hai and others knew Zhang Beixing rarely used hot weapons.
He didn’t need hot weapons.
Yet he suddenly deployed so many bombs, what’s the deal?
Getting close to the location.
Yet before arrival, they heard a loud noise.
It was the sound of an explosion.
Hmm???
It must have been the bombs delivered by the helicopter!
Huang Hai immediately concluded, ignoring the boxes’ weight, saying to them, "Hurry, let’s go, I want to see what’s happening over there!"
Huang Hai took the lead, earlier appearing burdened by the boxes’ weight.
All of a sudden, he seemed weightless, moving swiftly without a care.
Wang Xinqi behind him was amazed.
"Wow, I shouldn’t have let this brat fool me, how could a box weigh him down like that?"
With a cold snort, Wang Xinqi followed.
Behind them, seven or eight young men.
These young men were unlike them being Grandmaster Martial Artists, all were Class B Martial Artists.
Wang Xinqi and Huang Hai carrying the two boxes was manageable for them.
But these guys were genuinely worn out!
In the mountainous region, originally a tourist spot, vehicles couldn’t get in, they could only carry the boxes and push through.
Panting heavily, they were near exhaustion.
But seeing Wang Xinqi and Huang Hai’s figures fading into the distance, they could only gritted their teeth and chased them fiercely.
The two still carried the two boxes, while the young ones each carried one.
By Zhang Beixing’s side, Huang Hai and Wang Xinqi had arrived.
Putting the boxes down, they panted heavily.
That demeanor.
Like they were soon going to gasp over.
Zhang Beixing gave them a glance.
"That’s enough, I know your stamina. There is a limit to the act."
As soon as he spoke, the two immediately stopped gasping.
Embarrassed expressions appeared on their faces.
"Minister, why did you let us carry these boxes, what’s inside them?"
"On my way here, I heard explosions, is there some operation underway?"
Huang Hai asked, genuinely curious now.
Zhang Beixing gave him a nonchalant glance and said.
"Nothing much, I just saw Xu Feng climbing the mountain too smoothly, and suddenly felt like causing some trouble, playing with some bombs, just to add some difficulty for him."
"Huh?"
Huang Hai and Wang Xinqi exchanged a glance, bewildered.
What the hell?
Why did they understand every word Zhang Beixing the Minister said?
Yet combined, they couldn’t grasp it?
What do you mean by Xu Feng climbing the mountain too smoothly?
Huang Hai looked up.
Xu Feng was approximately at the 2000-meter mark.
One hand hung on the mountain, the other swaying, looking like he would fall any moment.
Zhang Beixing pointed upwards, "He was climbing nicely, look, I bombed it, and it nearly shook him off."
"People, huh, need trials to truly grow, surely can’t let him achieve his goal too comfortably."
Hmm...
Huang Hai’s face twitched slightly.
Glancing again at their amiable Minister Zhang Beixing.
Why did his smile suddenly seem so terrifying?
