The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

A kilometer distance actually doesn’t take that long for Xu Yiyu’s walking speed, and Rong Yan’s pace has always been online, so even in such a storm and the obstacles of the rugged mountain road, it only took them 1 minutes.

When he saw the small path that was barely wide enough for an adult to pass through, Xu Yiyu carefully looked at the conditions around the road and did not rush down the mountain to explore.

Although it is a road, next to the one-person-wide road surface is a deep and bottomless cliff. If someone accidentally slips, the person who walks down the path to the bottom of the cliff may fall to the bottom of the cliff at any time and be killed.

Considering that she still had Tongzi to rely on in the most difficult circumstances, Xu Yiyu turned around and talked to Rong Yan about her next plan.

"Rong Yan, I'll go down a little bit first. You go back to pick up Qi He and my family and tell them that we have found the way."

As soon as she finished speaking, a thunderclap as loud as a cannonball exploded in the dark cloudy sky. White lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating Xu Yiyu's eyes under the goggles, which inexplicably gave Rong Yan a bad premonition.

Rong Yan has always been a staunch materialist, but at this moment he suddenly hesitated.

"Ms. Xu, under the current circumstances, it is not appropriate for us to go our separate ways. If you encounter any unexpected situation and there is no one around to help you, you will be in a passive position."

After only a few seconds of thinking, Rong Yan frankly expressed his objections.

In the dimly lit mountains, Xu Yiyu looked at Rong Yan and smiled faintly but confidently.

"If you accompany me, if we encounter a danger that neither of us can escape, there will be no one to inform the family and Qi He in time."

Xu Yiyu really wanted to go down the cliff alone first, but because she had too many secrets hidden in her heart, and with someone by her side, she could not be absolutely carefree.

"This……"

"If you're worried, I have a flare here. If I really encounter any difficulties that I can't handle at the bottom of the cliff, I will fire it to ask for help immediately."

Although Rong Yan was still a little hesitant, looking at Xu Yiyu's overly sincere eyes face to face, and considering that they didn't have much time to waste, he finally nodded and agreed to her plan of acting separately.

Xu Yiyu stood at the intersection of the path and watched Rong Yan turn around and return along the same route they came. When his figure was completely obscured by the lush forest, she walked onto the path leading to the bottom of the cliff.

In the middle of the night when it was windy and rainy, the lighting conditions in the mountains were very poor. Although Xu Yiyu, who had night vision, could see every step clearly to the bottom of the cliff, his steps were still much more cautious than before on the cliff.

After walking forward for about a few dozen meters, Xu Yiyu kept observing the road conditions along the way. He found some traces of people having walked there before, and also saw the direction of the first half of the road clearly.

The ground beneath her feet had always been hard mud, but because of the heavy rain, the soil covering the stone road surface had become much softer, and many shallow locations even showed signs of mud.

The road did not go straight down. After Xu Yiyu walked down for dozens of meters, the road ahead began to climb upwards. Although it was still about the same width as the previous dozens of meters, the presence of the cliff beside the road began to become clearer and clearer.

After walking down for a while, Xu Yiyu avoided some gravel scattered on the road which might be a small-scale landslide. There was almost no mud on the road. Under the thin layer of soil, one could already see the dark mountain that had been eroded by wind, rain and the power of nature.

Although Xu Yiyu's fear of heights has basically been cured, she rarely looks towards the abyss beside her.

After all, at such an absolute height, any normal person who has not received professional training will feel a little fear from the bottom of their heart about this unknown depth.

When she walked cautiously step by step to a fairly spacious platform, Xu Yiyu looked up and found a protruding rock above her head. She walked carefully forward for a while, holding on to the slippery rock surface caused by the rain. Even though she had so many cards up her sleeve, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In the Ar Mountains, which are full of unknown dangers, taking every step safely is an achievement and medal for outdoor enthusiasts, because it means that they have survived a little longer under the test of nature.

Xu Yiyu did not dare to rest for too long. He just adjusted his breathing briefly, slightly moved his limbs which were already feeling a little cold, and then turned his gaze to the road ahead again.

If it were the Xu Yiyu of the past, he would definitely not be able to face the fear of being alone. He would probably start to feel weak in his legs uncontrollably when he took the first step on this road.

Xu Yiyu continued to move forward. After seeing the road conditions ahead clearly, she quickened her pace, but still remained vigilant at all times.

Now Xu Yiyu can become a strength to others, which is something she never expected a few months ago.

The wind in the mountains was always strong. When a gust of wind carrying countless raindrops blew towards Xu Yiyu, her body did not shake at all, but she only slightly slowed down her pace of going down the cliff.

If an adult was caught unprepared and hit by this gust of wind, and if his footing was not stable enough, he might have been blown to the bottom of the cliff by now, and his life or death would be unknown.

Xu Yiyu walked and stopped along the road leading to the bottom of the cliff, and took note of all the features along the way and any possible obstacles that might hinder progress.

After nearly twenty minutes, her right foot finally stepped on the solid and reliable stone ground at the bottom of the cliff.

Even Xu Yiyu today couldn't help but let out a long sigh after surviving a calamity.

She looked up again at the road she had just walked, and her awe for nature deepened a little more.

She, Xu, is now considered to be a skilled and courageous person, but under the test of nature, she still seems so insignificant.

Every minute and every second she lives in this world is a gift from nature after the test.

Xu Yiyu breathed a sigh of relief. Because she was safe throughout the whole process, she did not release the flares prepared in her outdoor bag.

Now, she could finally see clearly that looking from the top of the cliff at the deep and mysterious bottom of the cliff, it was actually a dense forest with all kinds of trees and shrubs, and occasionally some broken mountains and rubble.

She took a minute to adjust the functions of her body to the best level, and finally took the first step into the dense forest.

Maybe it was because the process of descending the cliff was too smooth, but as soon as Xu Yiyu took the first step, he heard the roar and howl of wild beasts coming from the depths of the dense forest blocked by countless trees.

Her high alertness to danger made her stop immediately. She looked towards the source of the roar and listened quietly for a while to the roar that sounded somewhat familiar.

The not-so-sharp roar mixed with the occasional thunder in the sky echoed in the mountains, adding a bit of weirdness and terror.

Xu Yiyu suddenly realized something and remembered that it was the roar of a wild beast.

——It seems that this is the bear that Tianlin didn’t have time to deal with before.

Whether it is a brown bear or a grizzly bear, Xu Yiyu knows how terrifying they are.

The beast could blow off half of a human's head with one blow. If an ordinary person encountered it, he would probably be in a desperate situation with no chance of death.

At this moment, Xu Yiyu was extremely glad that he insisted on being the first to go down to the bottom of the cliff to investigate the situation.

Because among the four people who set out to explore the way, only he has the current strength to face the dangerous bear head-on.
