Chapter 123 (2/2)

“Stop your nonsense!” Tao Ruoxiang coldly said, “Return quickly! I want to ask you in person, what your approach and thoughts are towards study!”

“Eh…..Aunt Tao, I can’t come back today, I am going on a trip.”

“Trip? What? You are actually travelling at this time?” Tao Ruoxiang’s voice was shocked.

“This…...I felt that there was too much pressure from studying recently, I need to relax my mood. So, going on a small trip is a good choice, let me off for a day or two.”

“Even if the pressure was great, there was no need to choose to escape.” Tao Ruoxiang’s tone actually changed from furious to caring.

“I am not escaping, this is just adjusting my state of mind and this trip should do it.” Qin Lang explained.

“Is it because you have been staying up too late these several days to make up for the missed lessons, that you are feeling pressure and your mental state turned bad?” Tao Ruoxiang said, “Haa, you have no one to blame but yourself for setting such a high goal, otherwise you wouldn’t have needed to endure such pressure. In psychological terms, this is called meltdown. Alright, pay attention to your safety and quickly adjust your mood. Call me if you need any help.”

“Okay.”

Qin Lang let out a long breath after ending the call, he hadn’t thought he would be able to bluff his way out.

From Tao Ruoxiang’s voice, she didn’t seem to be that angry. Well, after he returned from this trip, he would properly explain to her and speak few pleasant words, then everything would be okay. With his great eloquence, he was sure it wouldn’t be a difficult thing.

At this point, the bus had left the urban areas of Xiayang city and was quickly moving towards Nanping county.

Qin Lang had heard of Nanping county, but he had never visited it before, because Nanping county was rather remote. It was also a hilly area. The ethnicity of the residents here were Qiang, Miao, Zang, Zhuang and other few ethnic groups. Among these ethnic groups, those of Qiang ethnicity were the majority.

Despite Nanping county only being over hundred kilometers from Xiayang city, the bus had to travel for three whole hours, because the road was snaky and rugged, the conditions were dangerous and even a driver who was familiar with the terrain would have to be fully concentrated.

When Qin Lang reach Nanping county, it was already four in the afternoon.

After getting off the bus, Qin Lang looked at his phone and saw there was a missed call from unknown number and there was also a message.

This message was registered under that unknown number and it wrote: Qin Lang, come to Baipingshan Qiang village, we will get it over with!

There was no name in the message, but Qin Lang was certain this message was written by Qing Heyun.

However, Qin Lang hadn’t expected the place Qing Heyun chose would be Qiang village,. Qiang village, as the name implied was a place inhabited by Qiang ethnic group. Was Qing Heyun from Qiang ethnicity?

“Uncle, can you help me with something?” Qin Lang walked in front of a small fruit vendor stand near the bus station, and asked the fruit seller while smiling, “Could you tell me whether Baipingshan has a Qiang village?”

“What, you want to go to Baipingshan?” The fruit seller old man spoke in a low and alarmed tone and it even contained a bit of fear, as if that place was something very horrific.
