Leisurely Traveler with Check-in System

This time, the conversation not only led Luo Yong to reveal all his memories but also gradually gave him a clear understanding of Li Younan’s knowledge structure...

In one word, it’s unfathomable.

After the conversation ended, Luo Yong hesitated, but finally couldn’t help asking, ”You... which mountains have you conquered before?”

Li Younan smiled at that time, ”I haven’t climbed many mountains... just a few that many people have been to, which are relatively safe.”

While saying this, Li Younan was thinking of Huang Mountain and... Thunder God Mountain.

Thunder God Mountain, perhaps not many people know it... it’s a small hill on the outskirts of Li Younan’s hometown, famous locally for its over a thousand steps, a popular spot for middle-aged and elderly people to exercise in the morning.

And this sentence naturally held different meanings in Luo Yong’s ears.

A few details...

Li Younan said ”climbed,” while Luo Yong asked about ”conquering.”

This means that Younan is full of reverence for all mountains and nature; he doesn’t even think that reaching the peaks is ”conquering” them, but simply says ”climbed.”

Li Younan talked about mountains that ”many people have been to, very safe.”

This statement is very general, and in Luo Yong’s mind, he begins to list from the entry-level Four Sisters Mountain’s first and second peaks, Gangshenka Three Peaks... to the intermediate Dama Peak, Nisai Peak... and then to the true king-level Gold and Silver Peak, Black Tortoise Peak... and so on.

Without a doubt, what Li Younan meant was that he was proceeding steadily, step by step, starting with simpler peaks, gradually gaining experience, and then increasing the difficulty...

The professional level he exhibited, although he probably hasn’t climbed Gongga Mountain yet, challenging Gongga Mountain should already be his next milestone.

Probably something on his schedule!

What does this signify? It shows that, based on his reverence for nature and carefulness, Li Younan is not greedy for achievement, not reckless, but a committed mountaineer.

Many people say they revere nature, but actually, upon reaching a peak, they can’t wait to post on social media, record it, with captions inseparable from ”conquer” and ”challenge”; after doing it many times, they start to get lost, really believing they can conquer them.

Li Younan’s clarity is extremely rare.

Moreover, Younan has a high level of rock climbing skills.

Climbing skills are also very important.

Theoretically, Younan already has the foundation to challenge any of the high peaks.

In mountaineering, there is a commonly used difficulty rating system... the format is a number plus a letter, for example, Mount Everest’s climbing difficulty is 4E.

The number 4 represents technical difficulty, E represents environmental difficulty.

Environmental difficulty is easy to understand, referring to the harshness of the environment; E is the highest difficulty grade, representing harsh climate year-round, extremely low temperatures, and ultra-high wind speeds.

On technical difficulty, Everest is not the most challenging; the number 4 indicates the need to climb steep ice, ice walls, crevasses.

And above that is level 5, requiring vertical climbing, plus all the technical difficulties of level 4.

Without a doubt, Younan possesses the skills for climbing level 5 difficulty peaks!

Even so, Luo Yong didn’t see any hint of arrogance on his face.

Luo Yong felt a bit emotional... if he were younger, he would really hope for Younan as his teammate. He believes that with Younan as a partner, they could conquer most mountains.

At the end of the conversation, naturally, Luo Yong also honestly conveyed some of his admiration.

This scene naturally left Zhu Qingyue, who had been listening to their conversation, stunned and speechless.

How... she realized she truly understood Younan less and less.

She also began to realize that Younan was far more... reliable than she had imagined.

More than anything, she felt fortunate.

Zhu Qingyue is first a normal girl, and only then the so-called label of... a literary young woman.

Actually, she is just more sensitive and emotional compared to ordinary girls, but she doesn’t lack intelligence.

Before this, seemingly unreasonable or even silly choices were also due to... not understanding.

Not understanding mountaineering, much less Gongga Mountain.

Nor realizing that the accident her aunt encountered was actually a high probability choice.

When she decided to find her aunt, she didn’t know what ”search and rescue teams searched for several days and nights after losing contact on Gongga Mountain” meant.

During the time she formally came here, she naturally learned more about these aspects in detail, the more she learned, the more she shifted from ”artistic” to ”rational.”

By the time she got here, even her goal had gradually changed from ”finding her aunt’s belongings” to ”seeing the scenery her aunt saw” as being enough.

Even yesterday, when Younan and they left Luo Yong, she told Younan, ”Actually, just seeing a part of the scenery my aunt saw is enough.”

Honestly, being able to persist here was because Younan gave her courage.

After the impulsiveness settled, calming down, she would also think more about how besides her aunt, there are so many people who care about her, and those she cares about.

If Younan ultimately gave up, she might also logically treat this as a regret, keeping it in her heart, using it for remembrance... this also holds meaning.

But Younan did not give up.
