Chapter 461: Chapter 461: Old Turtle Mountain

“Who are you?” Lin Xiaoyan asked.

Nan Xi had just gotten into the car when she heard Lin Xiaoyan suddenly ask a question, and goosebumps instantly appeared on her skin.

“Help me… Hurry…”

Lin Xiaoyan slightly furrowed her brows, “Since you’re asking me to save you, you need to tell me about your situation, otherwise how can I help you?”

The voice paused for a moment and continued to say, “Help me…”

Lin Xiaoyan helplessly rubbed her forehead, not wanting to pay attention to this voice anymore.

Although she was curious about what this voice belonged to, she cared more about her own life!

Last time, she almost lost her life but luckily survived.

In front of various spirit monsters, human life is too fragile.

Lin Xiaoyan lowered her head and took out a few Five Thunder Talismans from her backpack.

“If you don’t want to give details, then don’t make a sound, or I’ll toss these Five Thunder Talismans onto the hillside directly, and whether you’re there or not, they might hit you!”

Lin Xiaoyan spoke slowly, counting the Five Thunder Talismans she had bought from Xuan Wu last time.

“One, two, three, four, five… ten, eleven…”

When Lin Xiaoyan counted to thirteen, the voice abruptly stopped and never appeared again.

At this moment, the small mountain behind the service area seemed to tremble slightly.

Lin Xiaoyan contentedly put away the talisman papers.

Without the sound bothering her, Lin Xiaoyan’s mood improved significantly.

Anyone would be annoyed by an incessant, ethereal voice disturbing them.

At this moment, Xiao Bo returned.

He got into the car excitedly, turning to look at the two of them.

“Do you know what this mountain used to be called?”

“What?”

“Old Turtle Mountain!”

Lin Xiaoyan and Nan Xi looked at the map; the name on it had nothing to do with “Old Turtle Mountain.”

“I just went to the supermarket and bought a lot of things, then chatted with the owner about this hillside.

The owner said it’s not a hillside, it’s a mountain!”

“This mountain used to be pretty big, but after constant mining, only this little bit is left.

I asked him why it’s not being mined now.

The owner said it seems that the construction team encountered a strange incident, and the mining team retreated overnight.”

Lin Xiaoyan and Nan Xi asked, “What kind of strange incident?”

Xiao Bo: “The owner didn’t say, but he looked quite mysterious.”

“Then I asked him why it used to be called Old Turtle Mountain, and he said he didn’t know, it’s just something he heard from the elders, and the name was changed thirty years ago.”

Recalling the voice just now, although it cried for “help,” it didn’t sound very weak.

“What should we do now? Do we wait here?”

Lin Xiaoyan thought for a moment, “Let’s wait first. When people arrive, we’ll leave.”

So, Lin Xiaoyan and the others waited in the service area for three hours.

Three hours later, military jeep vehicles drove into the service area.

Then, the service area staff received the notice and came out.

In no time, Lin Xiaoyan saw that the service area was temporarily closed, and vehicles were unable to enter.

The individual travelers lingering in the service area were notified to leave quickly.

“Knock, knock.”

The window of the car where Lin Xiaoyan and the others were was knocked on twice.

Xiao Bo got out of the car.

When the outside party learned it was them who called, their attitude improved.

Lin Xiaoyan and Nan Xi also got out.

“Hello, I’m Du Qiao from the district’s Armed Forces Department.”

Du Qiao extended his hand to shake hands with Lin Xiaoyan.

Lin Xiaoyan looked at the hand stretched out in front of her, glanced at it, and reached out to shake it.

The next second, Lin Xiaoyan sighed lightly, her gaze fell on the young man in front of her.

She released his hand and asked, “Did only you come?”

Du Qiao nodded, “We came over as soon as we received the notice.”

“Miss Lin, what’s the situation now? Do you need us to go up the mountain and start searching?”

Lin Xiaoyan shook her head, “Wait a moment, when the professional people arrive, we’ll go up the mountain.”

Du Qiao heard this and nodded, “Then should I first seal off the mountain?”

Lin Xiaoyan: “Don’t. Don’t do anything yet. Take a break here.”

Just now, she “saw” on Du Qiao that without the Xuan Sect people coming, they went up the mountain to search, and somehow the mountain suddenly cracked open, swallowing up the people on the mountainside into the crevice.

Du Qiao had pulled someone beside him, but ended up falling down himself.

After falling into the mountain crevice, these people suffered various injuries.

Du Qiao was unfortunate; his thigh was pierced by a broken tree root within the crevice.

Due to injuring the femoral artery, he didn’t wait for rescue to arrive and died from excessive bleeding.

They waited for another hour, and a vehicle sped into the service area.

“Xiao Yan! Sister Nan, Xiao Bo!!”

Lin Xiaoyan and the others were playing on their phones in the car when suddenly they heard a familiar voice outside.

The three looked up and saw it was Lin Feng!

Xiao Bo was the first to get out of the car and hugged Lin Feng tightly.

“So it’s you, man! Is your side’s business finished?”

Lin Feng nodded happily, “I’m done with it. Right when I was at the bureau, I heard Xiao Yan’s call, so I grabbed my senior brother to come along.”

As soon as Lin Xiaoyan got out of the car, Lin Feng’s gaze was directed toward her.

“Xiao Yan, how’s your recovery?”

Lin Xiaoyan smiled, “I’m fine now,”

Bao Lei came over to greet Lin Xiaoyan and the others.

Then, Bao Lei asked about the specific situation.

Lin Xiaoyan recounted the voice along with the scenes she had “seen” earlier.

Beside them, Du Qiao was shocked to hear that he died from excessive bleeding.

Bao Lei looked at Du Qiao and observed his demeanor, tutting, he truly had an early death appearance.

“Comrade, I suggest you don’t go up the mountain later.” Bao Lei said to Du Qiao.

Du Qiao nodded after hearing this, “I understand, thank you, Master, thank you, Mr. Lin.”

“By the way, I saw in those scenes that there seems to be a cave under that mountain crevice.” Lin Xiaoyan quietly told Lin Feng and Bao Lei.

Upon hearing this, Bao Lei and Lin Feng slightly raised their brows, took out tools, and looked at the small mountain behind.

Bao Lei quickly started calculating, while Lin Feng observed the feng shui of the mountain.

“This mountain has been mostly destroyed, leaving only this little bit.” Lin Feng said with a sigh.

Du Qiao took out a photo from ten years ago, “This is a photo of the mountain ten years ago, before it was mined.”

Lin Feng took it over, and Lin Xiaoyan and the others gathered around to look.

“Hey, don’t say, this shape does really resemble an old turtle!” Xiao Bo exclaimed.

Lin Xiaoyan looked at the scene in the photo and indeed, it resembled the shape of a turtle.

“Let’s go, we’re heading up the mountain.” Bao Lei finished his calculations, his eyes shining.

Seeing this, Lin Feng asked, “Senior Brother, have you found anything?”

Bao Lei looked at Lin Xiaoyan, “It seems that the spiritual entity of this mountain has gained intelligence. As this mountain is about to become a wasteland, with no life or spiritual energy, it finds it hard to continue surviving here.

So it’s asking for help.”

After hearing this, Lin Xiaoyan and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
