The car drove for a long while, then suddenly veered off the smooth asphalt road and started moving on a bumpy dirt path.
After getting in the car, Qin Shi closed his eyes, regulated his breathing, and restored some energy.
At this moment, a commotion erupted inside the car, and two male passengers started arguing with the driver.
"Driver, where are you taking us?"
"This road isn't right, why are we heading into the mountains?"
The driver and the bull-eyed man sitting in the front kept explaining, "This is a shortcut, going through this forest will get us there."
The two men continued muttering, indicating that no one knew there was such a shortcut.
Qin Shi slowly opened his eyes; he was unsure of the car's destination, but after a glance outside at the dense forest all around, and seeing no visible road ahead, he grew suspicious: Where is this going?
The driver ignored the men's shouting and suddenly veered the van into a patch of forest.
