Chapter 60: Set Off, on the Road

In the afternoon, Liu Mang received two messages.

First of all, there has been a huge change in the management of No. 2 Middle School.

Min Lulei applied for early retirement, and Wang Hongmin was promoted to executive vice principal of No. 2 Middle School. It is said that he will officially take over the position of principal after the transition period.

In fact, this is no longer news. Since the end of the competition, Min Lulei has been taking leave and has not returned to the school to take charge of the work.

Wang Hongmin was especially favored by the Education Bureau. Leaders at all levels always came to the No. 2 Middle School to inspect and talk to him specifically. There was no lack of appreciation in his words. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Teacher Wang was going to a higher place.

Therefore, Wang Hongmin's promotion can be regarded as a natural personnel appointment.

Liu Mang specially ordered a fruit basket and had it delivered to school as a congratulatory gift to Wang Hongmin.

Moreover, he also called Wang Hongmin to tell him about his current situation, focusing on the Lishui Ghost Town invitation card. After hearing this, Wang Hongmin was a little worried, but based on Liu Mang's rapid growth during these days, he knew very well that if Liu Mang wanted to continue to improve, he had to undergo training.

Therefore, in addition to encouragement, he also told Liu Mang to be careful in everything and never take risks when encountering danger.

Strangely, Zhang Xiaoxiao took the initiative to contact him again.

Moreover, Zhang Xiaoxiao asked about Lishui Ghost City as soon as she opened her mouth. It seemed that the Spiritual Masters Guild had already received the news.

But when Zhang Xiaoxiao learned that Liu Mang had received the invitation card and planned to leave for the mountain city tonight, she didn't say anything and just wished her a safe journey.

There is a second piece of news.

The reward for catching ghosts with Meng Zijin and Li Hao at the Kushui Mountain Mass Grave finally arrived. The municipal government office completed all verification and settlement procedures and transferred 2,000 spiritual stones to his account.

As a result, Liu Mang had more than 5,000 low-grade spiritual stones in his account, plus more than 250,000 yuan in cash. Such a huge fortune was something he could not have dreamed of more than a month ago.

With his current financial resources, there is no need to live in a village in the city. It is more than enough to go directly to the center of the city and buy a three-bedroom apartment with full payment.

However, Liu Mang did not intend to do this.

The main thing is that the college entrance examination will be held in June, and he doesn't know what the situation will be like then. Maybe, after the college entrance examination, I will leave this city and go to a new place to start a new life.

So, buying a house is not a priority.

In the evening, everything was ready. Liu Mang was carrying a heavy backpack. In addition to some necessary changes of clothes, a few emergency dry food and medicines, there were 100 low-grade spiritual stones that he had taken out in advance.

Although spiritual stones can be accessed instantly all over the country, they are not always available in some remote areas, and the spiritual stones on hand can be used urgently.

When going out, it’s always good to be prepared.

People were on the side of the road, and a van slowly stopped with its headlights on.

Liu Mang pushed open the side door and found several boxes of mineral water, food and medicine piled in the compartment. Meng Zijin and Li Hao were wearing field combat training uniforms in the front and passenger seats.

It seemed that the siblings were more prepared.

Get in the car and set off.

Li Hao handed over a bag of steaming steamed buns: "Try it, my mother just steamed it not long ago."

Liu Mang was not polite. Li Hao's mother was very good at cooking. She had eaten at his restaurant several times and she always had endless aftertaste and wanted to eat more.

"By the way, have you received 2000?"

"received."

"We plan to leave the Guangcheng area tonight, camp until tomorrow morning, and rest for a while."

"No problem, it's up to you."

There is not a lot of traffic on the road, and there are even fewer cars going out of the city.

Due to the devastating destruction it suffered hundreds of years ago, and the occasional ghostly presence over the years, the wilderness is somewhat risky.

Even a group of spirit masters like the three of them, let alone ordinary people, have to be very alert when doing outdoor activities.

Therefore, communication and commercial activities between cities are not frequent at all. Most of the time, they are often isolated and can only rely on electronic networks to maintain communication.

Fortunately, the road has been rebuilt over the years. Although there are no street lights and it is deserted outside, the van drives fast and steadily. The three of them listen to the radio, sing songs, and chat about other things, and the time passes. Fast.

Unconsciously, a touch of fish belly white began to rise in the sky.

Father Sun is coming out.

Li Hao looked at the map, turned to Meng Zijin and said, "Sister, turn right at the next intersection. There is a reservoir less than ten kilometers away. The terrain there is relatively high and there is a forest. It should be suitable for camping."

Meng Zijin nodded: "Okay, let's go to the reservoir to rest."

After getting off the road, the road towards the reservoir was a little bumpy, full of potholes, and splashed with a lot of mud, so the speed of the car naturally slowed down.

But about half an hour later, a huge mirror appeared in front, with rugged light, completely printing out the entire sky, and the rising sun was reflected in a yellow-orange disk.

Simply stunning.

The car stopped and the three of them got out of the car. They couldn't help but stretch, closed their eyes and took a few breaths of fresh air.

It has to be said that there are woods and reservoirs. The environment and air here make people feel very comfortable, as if the body and mind have been carefully washed from the inside out.

At this time, Meng Zijin felt tired one after another. After driving all night, she was really sleepy: "You guys are angry, I will go to the car to catch up on my sleep."

"Don't worry, I'll call you after I'm done." Li Hao promised, and he had already started to collect branches nearby and prepare to cook.

In this situation, Liu Mang lacked experience in surviving in the wild, so he could only help Li Hao.

Fortunately, Li Hao was really capable and very skillful. He quickly made a campfire look decent, and also set up an iron pot, added rice and water to start cooking porridge.

In the wilderness, it was really a great treat to drink a mouthful of hot food early in the morning.

Li Hao finally had the opportunity to play his strengths and show his indispensable role in the team.

Not long after, the fragrant white porridge was fragrant, but Li Hao's performance had just begun.

He actually took out a frying pan from the car, as well as eggs, bacon, and vegetables. It looked like he was going to make a full banquet.

About an hour later, a blanket was spread on the grass, and Li Hao presented eight hot dishes and one soup like a magic trick.

Meng Zijing, who was sleeping in the car, was awakened by Liu Mang. When she saw this picture, she was not surprised at all, as if everything was natural.

In this way, the three of them started their first meal in the wild, and this first meal was a very, very rich breakfast.

This was not like going out for an adventure, it was just driving around.

So, with Meng Zijing driving on her own, Li Hao was responsible for cooking, and Liu Mang was responsible for the whole process. On the evening of April 13, the van finally entered the territory of the mountain city.

The ghost town, the trio came.
