Chapter 167 A Spontaneous Hiking Trip
During the Qingming Festival, it rained heavily, and there were no pedestrians on the road... There were no pedestrians on the mountain road, only various cars speeding past, as if the bends on the winding mountain road did not exist, and they were overtaking like crazy.
Tang Hua drove calmly, swallowing a hundred swear words that would be censored.
Cen Lian, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the gloomy sky outside the window and couldn't help asking Qi Yan, "Will you not cancel your hiking activities in this weather?"
"Of course not!" Qi Yan said firmly, "It's not raining heavily, it won't affect our hiking."
"Really?" Qu Zihan asked weakly, "Even if we go out for an outing, we will postpone it if it rains."
Yuan Chenxi patted her shoulder, "After all, yours is an outing, but this time we are going to be legendary hikers, that must be different!"
A technical nerd who was a scumbag silently swallowed back the retreat she wanted to say.
In fact, only Tang Hua and Wuqiushan were supposed to join Qi Yan and the others in hiking this time. Cen Lian was dragged out of his home by the two of them. In fact, he wanted to sleep at home for a few more days.
Wang Yuanteng had to accompany his wife and children to visit the graves in his hometown, so it was reasonable for him not to participate in this activity.
The most surprising thing was that Forensic Doctor Lin actually came.
"Actually, I didn't plan to come," Lin Xiangqi showed her phone that failed to buy tickets when she got on the car. "A member of a boy band I'm chasing recently held an event in Kang'an, but I didn't get a ticket, so I just came with you."
Cen Lian was very shocked by Lin Xiangqi's star-chasing.
"I'm not really a star-chaser," Lin Xiangqi silently put down her phone and chose a comfortable seat in the back row. "I don't care if it's a boy band or a girl band, a band or a rock band."
"Do you have any recommendations that have collapsed?" Yuan Chenxi became curious.
"Ten or eight have already," Lin Xiangqi actually counted seriously, "but I always think the next one is better."
Although Tang Hua was driving, he was still shocked by Forensic Doctor Lin's spiritual world.
"I thought you would be the type who would read all kinds of anatomy books at home after work, and your house would be decorated in cold metallic colors, which would make you look very forensic." He racked his brains to describe his impression of Lin.
"So I asked you to watch less TV series," Lin Xiangqi took out her mobile phone and found the boy band stage that she had saved in advance. "I almost always come into contact with dead people and half-dead people during the day. If I still watch these at night, I will get depression sooner or later. I like to watch these boy and girl groups not because I really like chasing stars, but because I feel that many of the people I come into contact with during the day will never move again. At night, I have to watch something youthful and fresh."
Qu Zihan suddenly realized.
"You are just like a thousand-year-old demon sucking essence!"
When she said this, Lin Xiangqi's expression suddenly became strange.
"Don't you say it, it's a bit like that." She raised her mobile phone, "Then I will continue to absorb essence."
The corner of Cen Lian's mouth twitched, and he felt that the character of Lin, a forensic doctor in his heart, had completely collapsed.
However, everyone has different ways to relieve work pressure. Cen Lian himself may not be much better hiding in the dark room with a telescope to watch the stars in the middle of the night.
Qi Yan was replying to WeChat messages all the way, and only raised his eyes from his phone when he asked what boy bands and girl bands Lin liked.
"They are already in the camp at the foot of the mountain. When will we arrive?" Qi Yan looked at his phone for the last time and raised his head to ask Tang Hua.
"About 20 minutes," Tang Hua was not familiar with the road conditions in this area and basically relied on navigation, so his speed was slower than Qi Yan's professional hiking friends.
But when he parked the car, the drizzle stopped.
The air in the mountains was filled with the smell of soil and grass. Cen Lian took a deep breath and felt that his mood was much relieved.
The lush green all over the eyes made people feel happy physically and mentally.
"No wonder you like hiking," Yuan Chenxi took a deep breath and opened her arms, "This feeling is really comfortable."
Qu Zihan looked at the endless mountain and packed her luggage with a sigh.
Her physical strength was really average. Wang Yuanteng, who usually accompanied her, did not come this time. By then, she would probably fall behind the team.
Qi Yan greeted several of his friends.
The people who came to hike together this time were all friends in Qi Yan's group in Kang'an City or several surrounding cities. They were also a little curious about Cen Lian and the others.
"Do your friends know that you are a policeman?" Lin Xiangqi asked Qi Yan before setting off.
"They only know that I am a civil servant in the public security, procuratorial and judicial system." Qi Yan shook his head, "They assumed that I work in the court, and I didn't explain it."
When Qi Yan was serious, he did look a bit like a prosecutor and a judge.
"That's good. I think most people may not be very willing to hike with forensic doctors." Lin Xiangqi relaxed.
Although the work of forensic doctors is respected most of the time, she has still been discriminated against in some very subtle ways in some activities that require close contact and communication.
When the last car stopped, all the members of this hike were there.
Including Cen Lian and his group, there were seventeen people in total.
They almost accounted for half.
"This is my first time hiking with so many people." Organizer Liu Jiaming, who looked very professionally equipped, did not expect that there would be so many people this time. He looked a little surprised, "Lao Qi said he would bring a few friends with him. , I thought there were only two or three people, but I didn’t expect there were so many.”
Cen Lian habitually stepped forward to socialize and explained, "We are all colleagues of Brother Qi. We are usually bored in the office every day and haven't climbed the mountain for a long time. This time we finally made up for our rest and came out to breathe fresh air."
Tang Hua stared at Cen Lian with his eyes wide open and told lies.
Haven’t climbed a mountain in a long time? It was only two months since I last went to Yunnan Province, and it was a serious virgin forest!
But after Cen Lian said this, the others didn't ask any more questions.
These days there are so many social animals who follow them on foot on a whim.
However, he was a little worried and warned a few other friends not to go too fast.
Qi Yan held the map in his hand and naturally walked at the front.
In fact, you don’t need a map when you go up the mountain, because Jiuding Mountain was still a tourist attraction more than ten years ago, but the company went bankrupt within two years of development, so the mountain gradually became deserted. , only one-third of the stone steps up the mountain have been built, and the road behind is not very easy to walk.
This is also the place Liu Jiaming specially selected after knowing that many new people joined this time. This mountain is quite friendly to people who do not usually exercise.
