Chapter 443: Chapter 284: Refresh of Minions in the Uninhabited Zone～

After leaving the experimental site struck by thunder with the dog,

it was another long journey.

Xi’an is considered to be located at the southeastern corner of the Loess Plateau, but it is actually on the Guanzhong Plain between the Loess Plateau and the Qinling.

This is also known as the Wei River Plain.

Because the plain’s formation is due to the Wei River and its tributaries’ perennial erosion.

So after leaving Xi’an,

he walked north, slightly to the west,

he hadn’t officially stepped into the territory of the Loess Plateau by noon, but the surrounding environment had already started to change due to its proximity to the Loess Plateau.

As he got farther from Xi’an, the terrain began to show the typical features of the Loess Plateau — undulating loess landforms, crisscrossing gullies, and the occasional terraced fields.

At noon, the sun was hanging high.

The air was permeated with a dryness.

Chen Yun chose a relatively flat spot to rest, mainly to let the dog have a break.

He didn’t really need to rest.

But it wasn’t the case for the silly dog Bai Jin he was carrying, who was truly exhausted.

While he took out water and placed it on the ground for the silly dog to drink,

he squatted by the side of the road and quietly gazed into the distance.

From here, he could see the contours of distant mountains, which are a unique scenery of the Loess Plateau.

The vegetation on the ground became sparse, and occasionally he could see some drought-resistant plants stubbornly rooting in this land.

Although the road beside him was empty, it stretched out into the distance.

He looked down at the silly dog Bai Jin, who was trying hard to drink water.

Chen Yun couldn’t help but smile a little.

If he wanted to, he could have carried the silly dog Bai Jin and rushed at full speed; by this time, they would have probably already crossed the Loess Plateau and reached Inner Mongolia.

But his journey around the world wasn’t just about dashing from place to place.

Strolling along the way was quite interesting.

At least in Chen Yun’s view, walking the dog in this somewhat desolate place had its own charm.

The scenery around him at the moment

actually vaguely resembled the feeling of the western part of Lighthouse Country.

And while he was pondering this,

his always active Transparent World Perception sensed a small car approaching from a distance.

The vehicle was particularly conspicuous in such a remote area.

It was an old, grey sedan, with a body that looked slightly worn, as if it had weathered many storms.

The paint on the body was a bit mottled and peeling, but one could still see its past elegance.

The car window was half-open, and judging from the accent of the man inside, singing along with the car stereo, it was clear there was an enthusiastic Northeastern man inside.

As the vehicle drew closer,

Chen Yun heard the roar of the engine, not particularly loud, but in the silent environment, it was especially clear.

The speed of the car wasn’t fast, possibly to adapt to the uneven road, or perhaps the driver wanted to enjoy the scenery along the way.

As the sedan neared Chen Yun’s location, the Northeastern man slowed down.

He rolled down the window and shouted loudly, "Hey! Where are you heading, young man?"

His voice was loud and friendly.

"Lingchuan County," Chen Yun answered after a moment’s thought.

He himself wasn’t really planning to go there.

He said so mainly because Lingchuan County wasn’t too far away, and even an ordinary person walking could surely get there before dark.

Given this distance,

it made his walking seem less suspicious.

Moreover, Lingchuan County is a small city on the edge of the southeastern corner of the Loess Plateau, and going there did not contradict Chen Yun’s own purpose of visiting the Loess Plateau.

"I’m heading in that direction. Do you want a ride?"

The Northeastern man asked again.

His words were filled with sincerity and care.

At least under Chen Yun’s Emotion Perception Ability, it seemed to be truly so.

Seeing Chen Yun appeared to hesitate,

the Northeastern man continued to persuade him.

He didn’t seem to worry at all that Chen Yun, who was walking a dog on this remote road, could be a bad guy.

His enthusiasm at that moment made one feel he was completely a social phobia.

Don’t misunderstand.

Here, social phobia doesn’t mean social anxiety disorder.

It means a social terrorist!

This enthusiastic brother did indeed fit Chen Yun’s stereotype of Northeastern people — so enthusiastic that it made him, a Jiangnan native, feel a bit overwhelmed.

In the end, Chen Yun decided to accept his kindness.

If it were someone else,

they might not dare to accept the kindness of a stranger in such a remote place.

But Chen Yun was different.

Not only did he possess the Emotion Perception Ability to distinguish good from bad, but he also had terrifying strength that he was not afraid of any danger.

So,

Chen Yun carried the silly dog Bai Jin into the car.

Hitching a ride with a kind stranger was an experience not to be missed.

Together, they got into the car.

The Northeastern man introduced himself warmly, "My name is Li Sihai, you can call me Brother Si Hai since you’re so young. It’s important to help out when you’re out in the world, that’s what we Northeasterners believe in."

Chen Yun also smiled in response, "I’m Chen Yun, and this is my dog Bai Jin. Thank you for letting us join you for the ride."

While speaking,

Chen Yun, with Bai Jin in his arms, brought him closer to Li Sihai.

Upon hearing their names, Li Sihai burst out laughing, "Good names, Bai Jin, sounds like a lucky dog."

It seemed as if Bai Jin understood,

and it blinked and looked at Li Sihai obediently.

"Alright, sit tight, let’s hit the road."

With that, Li Sihai turned on the car stereo and played some oldies filled with a sense of the era.

He hummed along, his voice revealing a sort of boldness and carefreeness.
