Chapter 8 Preparations Before Departure

Bai Yuxuan was about to pry something out of the landlord's mouth further.

"What are the secrets in the Valley of the Lost Soul?"

Bai Yuxuan typed this sentence in the input box and clicked the "Send" button.

The system says "This post is not available or has been deleted".

"What's going on?!"

Bai Yuxuan looked at the mobile phone screen that had returned to the homepage of the forum and scolded angrily.

"I don't know, maybe this landlord is a liar."

Lu Zhentian said in disbelief.

"But...... What are your thoughts on this? ”

"Let's go!"

"Let's go? Where to go? ”

"Let's go to the Valley of the Lost Soul to find out!"

In response to Lu Zhentian's question, Bai Yuxuan made an answer that surprised him.

"It's boring to stay in this school anyway, so let's go out for a trip, how about it?"

Bai Yuxuan patted Lu Zhentian on the shoulder, and his tone revealed an unconcealed excitement, as if he was going to a resort like the Maldives.

"But you decided so suddenly. And have you ever been to the Valley of the Lost Soul? Do you know what's dangerous inside? Can the two of us do it? ”

Lu Zhentian raised a series of questions in one breath.

For Lu Zhentian's many questions, Bai Yuxuan just smiled and said nothing, and only after a few minutes did he speak slowly.

"Hey, you don't have to worry about that."

"First of all, Lost Soul Valley is also located in the Caowu Mountain Scenic Area, but it is not open to the public, so even if there is danger, it will not be fatal."

"Besides, we are both strong men, and if we really encounter any danger, I think at least it's okay to get out and protect ourselves."

"Take 10,000 steps back, even if we are really unfortunate and encounter some fatal crisis. It doesn't matter, it's the end in a year anyway, isn't it? ”

After listening to Bai Yuxuan's words, Lu Zhentian thought carefully with his hands on his forehead.

After a while, Lu Zhentian raised his head sharply and muttered.

"It's okay to go there, it's just, this, it's just ......"

"I think I need a lot of money, that, all the money my dad left behind is for me to pay for tuition, so, that's ......"

After hearing Lu Zhentian say these words, Bai Yuxuan suddenly laughed.

"Haha, so you're worried about this." Bai Yuxuan stretched out his hand and hugged Lu Zhentian's shoulder.

"It's okay, you don't have to pay a penny, you just need someone to go with your brother."

Taken aback by Bai Yuxuan's sudden move, Lu Zhentian said hesitantly.

"W-what's so embarrassing...... And we don't know each other......"

"Hey, it's okay, it's really okay!" Seeing that Lu Zhentian was still like this, Bai Yuxuan raised his voice and said.

"That'...... All right! ”

Lu Zhentian no longer insisted, nodded and agreed to this action.

"Well, let's go out for breakfast now, and then go buy equipment, and how about leaving early tomorrow morning?" Seeing that Lu Zhentian finally decided to go, Bai Yuxuan said with some excitement.

"So fast? Going tomorrow? That... All right. ”

"Of course, the sooner the better, so you don't have anything to clean up, right? Let's go now. ”

The two went to the school's food court, found a random shop, and each ordered a bowl of beef noodles.

While waiting for the meal to be served, Bai Yuxuan took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Toot ~ Toot ~ Toot ~"

"What's wrong, Xiao Xuan? What's the matter? ”

The voice of a mature woman came from across the phone.

"Hey, Mom. Tomorrow I'm going to go out with my classmates for two days, and you can give me some special funds. Bai Yuxuan said with a grin.

"When is this still thinking about playing, I said you either get a job or a girlfriend, you ...... day by day"

"Oh, why do you say these ...... again" Bai Yuxuan took the phone farther away.

"Okay, I won't tell you, you can call me the money as soon as possible."

Bai Yuxuan quickly finished saying this, and then hung up the phone with a roar.

On the opposite side, Lu Zhentian raised his head curiously, and Bai Yuxuan hurriedly explained when he saw this.

"Hey, my mom is just so verbose, urging me to find a job and a girlfriend all day long, I haven't had enough fun."

While they were talking, the beef noodles they ordered were finally served on the table.

Bai Yuxuan took out a pair of chopsticks and began to gulp down the noodles, on the other hand, Lu Zhentian looked much more elegant.

The two were eating happily, and Bai Yuxuan's mobile phone sent out a message prompt tone.

He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, opened the screen of his phone, and suddenly smiled from ear to ear.

"Your bank card (9527) has received RMB 10,000.00 and the balance is RMB 11,586.53."

Bai Yuxuan excitedly stretched out his mobile phone in front of Lu Zhentian, and Lu Zhentian smiled slightly after reading it.

Not long after, the two finished their noodles and came to a shopping mall outside the school.

Thinking that this operation can be regarded as a small expedition, the equipment must be well prepared.

They first came to an outdoor goods store, and Bai Yuxuan bought the following things according to his own ideas.

Two mountaineering backpacks of 70L, one tent, two sleeping bags, one knife, two flashlights, 5L kerosene, one compass, one outdoor direct drinking water filter purifier, one first aid kit, two sets of outdoor jackets, two headlamps, two pairs of hiking boots, 5 meters of nylon rope, and two windproof lighters.

After buying these things, Bai Yuxuan asked Lu Zhentian for his opinion.

"Do you think that's enough? Is there anything else missing? ”

Seeing that Bai Yuxuan bought so many things at once, Lu Zhentian didn't have any opinions of his own.

"I think it's okay, how long are we going? Do you really need to bring so many things? ”

"Well, I think it's probably only three to five days. It's not a long time coming, but you have to do a good job of preparation, don't you? ”

"Then if nothing is missing, let's go to the supermarket and buy dry food."

Then they went to the supermarket and bought two big bags full of things.

There are mainly four things: mineral water, beef jerky, chocolate, compressed biscuits, and energy drinks.

Then they made their way back to the dormitory with a heavy backpack and a large bag of dry food in their hands.

When Bai Yuxuan pushed open the door of the dormitory, a person in the room raised his head in surprise.

When he saw Bai Yuxuan and Lu Zhentian carrying so many things on their backs, he spoke.

"What are you doing...... To emigrate or to flee? ”

Bai Yuxuan put everything on the bed with a bang. Only then did he have time to talk to the man while panting.

"Fat, fat...... How did you get back? ”

It turned out that this is also Bai Yuxuan's roommate, named Zhou Xiwei, and he has been renting a house with his girlfriend off-campus to start a business together.

"Well, don't ask." Seeing Bai Yuxuan ask him about the reason for his return, Zhou Xiwei's face suddenly darkened.

"Broke up?"

Bai Yuxuan asked tentatively.

Who knew that Zhou Xiwei's face became even more bitter.

"Hmm." He replied lightly.

"Alas, after so many years of relationship, why did she run away with other men?!"

Seeing that Zhou Xiwei's mood was getting more and more depressed, Bai Yuxuan hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his neck.

"Ahem, it's fine. Women, just run, just run away, and find a better one in the future. ”

"How? You see, we're going to hang out tomorrow, why don't we go out together? ”

Bai Yuxuan stretched out his hand and pointed back at the pile of things he had just bought.

At this time, Zhou Xiwei noticed Lu Zhentian standing at the door.

"Who is this?"

"Oh, he's a senior in the archaeology department, so we'll go with us tomorrow, what? Do you want to go together? Go out and relax, and leave the woman behind. ”

Zhou Xiwei's eyes gradually glowed.

"Hmm!" He nodded vigorously.

"That's right." Bai Yuxuan smiled.

Then Bai Yuxuan turned his head and said to Lu Zhentian: "What, you go back to the dormitory first, we have to go out to buy something for him now." ”

"We'll leave on time tomorrow morning at eight o'clock."

"Okay, I'm going back to packing some clothes too." After speaking, Lu Zhentian left.

Bai Yuxuan and Zhou Xiwei came to the outdoor store just now and bought the same set of equipment they had just bought, but the jacket was changed to the largest size.

Then Zhou Xiwei insisted on going to the supermarket to buy dry food, according to him, going to outdoor sports consumes more physical strength, so more energy needs to be replenished.

Bai Yuxuan couldn't resist him, and in the end, Zhou Xiwei bought more dry food than Bai Yuxuan and the others combined just now.
