Chapter 426
Within three hours after Hanson and the others left, numerous visitors immediately flocked to Bamboo Pavilion to
attend the storytelling sessions. In an instant, Bamboo Pavilion gained great fame.
Old Mr. Bamboo finally smiled in the direction they had left. That smile signified that he had truly let go of
everything, and it was a radiant smile.
After more than 3 hours of flight, the helicopter finally arrived at The Broad Peaks. There was a stone tablet that
indicated the name of the place, and not even a house was in sight. Past the stone tablet was a winding path that
led to the huge mountain in front of them.
The mountain was shrouded in fog, making it impossible to judge its size and height. The clouds also changed
constantly around the mountain, making everything look unreal.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVania and the others checked their equipment. "Let's go up right now."
Hanson took out the map drawn by the children, then pointed at a peak. "We're going there."
That peak was at the top of the mountain, and the path there was also the most dangerous.
"Okay."
The land was still easily traversable at the foot of the mountain, but it was apparent that none had walked through
here before. There was no sign of the grass on the hill being stepped on. Vania left signs throughout their journey
so the rescue team could them if something happened.
"Boss, the equipment is malfunctioning!" Linda shouted in fright.
Vania wasn't surprised at all. Instead, she took out the way-finding equipment her babies designed. "Try this."
She never thought this would happen as soon as they entered the mountain. She had no idea what would happen
when they went further in.
"The gadgets I have in my hand are malfunctioning too." Exasperated, Larry could only put away the things in his
hand.
After another two hours or so, they finally realized that something was off. "We were walking in circles." It was a
vast circle too, and this circle took more than two hours to complete.
Hanson looked at their surroundings, then said in a low voice, "This doesn't look like a man-made illusion. We can't
depend on the GPS equipment anymore."
No matter how advanced their equipment was, in such complicated situations, it would malfunction too.
"We have to get out of this circle before it gets dark."
Their gadgets weren't functioning properly here, so they were in extreme danger.
"But which direction should we go now?" Seeing that there were similar trees everywhere, Linda found it a little
challenging to find the way. Just then, a dark shadow flew past in front of them. Hanson immediately pulled Vania

Upon further inspection, it was a wild chicken flying by, so Hanson said, "We can follow that chicken."
Meanwhile, Larry was also holding a leaf, examining the direction the veins of the leaf were growing. "That way,
President Luke." He pointed at the spot the chicken had just been in.
The four of them immediately strode forward, but they only walked for 10 minutes or so before Hanson called for
them to stop. "No, we're still going in circles."
We're in another circle!
Meanwhile, the sun was sinking into the horizon. A breeze picked up and rustled the leaves above them, causing
them to shiver a little. Hanson held Vania tightly in his embrace. "We'll look for a water source now. If we walk along
the stream, we definitely won't get lost."
Larry nodded. "That's right. Look at those roots; they're a little thicker in the west, which means that water is
abundant in the west. Let's go in that direction instead."
When they entered the mountain, they followed the map and kept going east in the direction of the peak.
Vania nodded. "Okay, then we'll choose this tree as our point of reference. Then, we'll walk in a straight line while
looking at it."
