Chapter 776 - Krait (1/2)

The dozens of villagers were obviously used to this kind of path. Although they carried hundreds of kilograms of equipment on their shoulders, they were still walking fast and soon disappeared in front of them.

At the beginning, these experts were still very excited. They walked and stopped, enjoying the scenery around them, and kept taking pictures with cameras and mobile phones in their hands.

But after walking for about a kilometer, these people were completely dumbfounded. All of them were panting and sweating. They looked exhausted and no longer were in the mood to take photos. They all put away their mobile phones.

Qin Haodong was the only one in the group of experts who had a leisurely look on his face. This was nothing for a Saint-level master.

As a reporter, Kathaway had been running around all year round. In addition, she usually paid attention to health care, so she had a good physical quality. She had been following Qin Haodong all the time, asking questions.

Of course, it was not convenient for Qin Haodong to tell her more about Oxhorn Village, so he told her about traditional Chinese medicine. She was also very interested in this kind of medical skill, which she had never heard of, so she was very interested in it.

In contrast, Su Hui’s physical strength was not as good as that of Kathaway’s. After walking for a while, she was already sweating profusely.

Qin Haodong said with pity, “You must be tired. How about letting me carry you on my back?”

Su Hui said, “How can you do that? You’re also very tired.”

“Do you think I’m tired?”

Qin Haodong squatted down with a smile and carried Su Hui on his back without saying anything. Even if there was one more person, it wouldn’t affect his speed at all. He and Su Hui became the first group of the team with the guide from Wangshan Village and Kathaway.

Kathaway followed behind him and exclaimed, “Qin, you’re amazing. You’re so good to your girlfriend.”

Qin Haodong said with a smile, “It’s one of the characteristics of the men in Huaxia.”

“Really? Then I’ll find a boyfriend from Huaxia in the future.”

They walked forward while talking and laughing. Unexpectedly, it was Sun Fengqing who followed them. Although this old man was over 70 years old, his physical quality was no worse than that of young people because he usually liked to practice.

Although Sun Bowei followed closely behind his grandfather, he was sweating profusely and was not as relaxed as Sun Fengqing.

As for Zhuo Bufan and Zhao Meng, the two doctors of Western medicine, they were even worse. Being experts and professors, they were used to being pampered. After taking a few steps, they began to feel sore in the waist and legs and kept following the team at the back.

Dong Anna was also exhausted. She looked at Su Hui, who was lying on Qin Haodong’s back, with envy. It would be great if someone could carry her on his back.

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but look back at Zhao Meng. But at this time, Zhao Meng was panting like a cow and sweating profusely. He almost had his tongue stuck out. He couldn’t help anyone at all.

“Useless thing.”

Dong Anna cursed and could only try her best to walk forward.

“Qin, your physical strength is really good.”

Kathaway spoke with admiration.

She was full of curiosity about this Eastern man. He looked weak and gentle, but he was stronger than a fitness champion.

The guide also said, “Yes, you are in good health and are no worse than us mountain people.”

When a middle-aged man with a face full of the vicissitudes of life saw that Qin Haodong could still follow him with ease with a woman on his back, he was full of admiration.

Qin Haodong smiled and said, “It’s nothing. In fact, my girlfriend is too light.”

The middle-aged guide man nodded in agreement and said, “The girls in the city are too slim. With such a body, they couldn’t find a husband in our village.”

Every place had its opinion about values and spouses. In their village, everyone had to do heavy work. Therefore, the stronger a woman was, the more popular she would be, and the easier it would be for her to find a husband.

Qin Haodong turned to Su Hui on his back and said with a smile, “Did you hear that? In the future, you should eat more and become stronger.”

“I don’t want that.”

Su Hui paid attention to her figure. Whenever she got a little fat, she would lose weight immediately. She could not accept such aesthetic views from this village.

They chatted and laughed as they walked. After more than an hour, they had almost walked half of the way.

At this moment, Zhuo Bufan, who was standing behind them, cried out weakly, “Sir, let’s take a break. We really can’t move anymore.”

After that, he and Zhao Meng sat down on a rock next to them, gasping for breath.

The tour guide turned around and said helplessly, “Everyone can take a break, but don’t waste too much time. There are many wild beasts in our mountain. There are wild wolves, leopards, and black bears. It’s fine now, but once it gets dark, it’ll be dangerous here.”

Guo Tao rubbed his ankle in pain and complained, “What a terrible place this is. I won’t come back again even if I’m beaten to death.”

Zhao Meng took out a bottle of mineral water from his backpack, opened the lid, and handed it to Zhuo Bufan. “Director, drink some water.”

Zhuo Bufan drank half of the water in one breath and returned the remaining half to Zhao Meng. Zhao Meng took it and drank up the rest of the water in one breath.

Qin Haodong put Su Hui down. They didn’t look tired at all. They were laughing and taking photos.

Zhuo Bufan was furious. He didn’t know how this guy did it. He didn’t feel tired at all even though he carried a woman on his back for such a long time.

Knowing what he was thinking, Zhao Meng said, “Director, he’s just a man with a good physical quality. He’s actually a rough man. What can he do here?
