Several cars arrived at the entrance of a hotel at the foot of the majestic Mount Tai. A group of young people got out of the cars. One young man, driving a Ye Da Ben, said to the woman in the passenger seat.
"Yiyi, you go in first, I'll go park."
"Oh!"
The woman nodded, opened the car door, and got out. She then glanced at the hotel entrance and asked.
"Ye Fan, do you want me to book your room for you?"
"Book them all together. Here's my ID card."
Ye Fan, the young man driving, took out his ID card from his wallet and handed it to Liu Yiyi, asking her to help with the registration.
Mount Tai always has many tourists, so the parking lot here has a lot of vehicles. It's not easy to find a good parking spot and park, which takes some time.
What neither Ye Fan, who was driving, nor Liu Yiyi, who had gotten out, noticed was that the tall, burly security guard at the hotel entrance was staring at them in astonishment until Ye Fan drove the Ye Da Ben to the parking lot before he came back to his senses.
"Ye Fan? Ye Da Ben? Yiyi?"
Tian Hao muttered those three keywords, then looked back at the hotel where he worked, and then at the majestic Mount Tai in the distance, feeling utterly bewildered.
"Shrouding the Heavens?"
He was a Transmigrator, and he had Transmigrated into the Shrouding the Heavens World. His current identity was a security guard at the hotel where Ye Da Ben stayed before climbing Mount Tai. This made him think of some humorous remarks made by netizens in his previous life.
Not for Immortal Ascension, but to wait for your return in the Mortal World to pay for parking.
Just as that saying goes, at first, I didn't understand the meaning of the song; later, I became the person in the song.
In his previous life, when he saw such a joke online, he only laughed, never expecting it to happen to him now.
"Calm down! I need to confirm it!"
After glancing at the Ye Da Ben driving into the parking lot, Tian Hao walked into the hotel's ground floor lobby, listening from afar to the conversations of the people, focusing on the names they used to address each other.
After hearing a few familiar names, it was basically confirmed that this was the Shrouding the Heavens World.
"Why did you come here?"
While Tian Hao was deep in thought, a hand slapped him on the shoulder. He turned his head and saw another tall, burly security guard, who was Wang Boguang, the manager of the hotel's security department.
"Brother Wang, I'd like to ask for two days off. My girlfriend has an urgent matter and needs me to go over."
Tian Hao casually made an excuse. Now that it was confirmed to be the Shrouding the Heavens World, and the biggest Opportunity, the nine dragons coffin pull flight, was about to arrive, he naturally had to follow along.
Although Earth also had a strong foundation, in terms of Cultivation environment and resources, it was far inferior to Beidou.
Taking the nine dragons coffin pull flight to Beidou was the best choice.
"When did you get a girlfriend?"
Wang Boguang was puzzled; he hadn't heard that this kid had a girlfriend.
"I got one last month!"
Tian Hao replied. He naturally didn't have a girlfriend; after all, for the past few years, his mind had been entirely focused on making money, and he hadn't thought about that aspect of things yet.
"Is it urgent? A guest who went up the mountain just called. He was also conquered by Mount Tai, and his legs are almost numb. He asked us to arrange for someone to go up and carry him down."
Wang Boguang frowned. This was a special service of their hotel. Any guest staying at their hotel who couldn't walk on Mount Tai could call, and they would immediately arrange for someone to go up and carry them down, and would also thoughtfully provide complimentary masks and hats.
Of course, it was a paid service.
Climbing up and down Mount Tai was not easy, let alone carrying someone. For the safety of themselves and the guests, it was even more difficult, requiring an extremely strong physique.
Currently, only five people in the hotel could do this job, and they were all assigned to their security department.
The other four were either busy with work or on vacation and resting. Now, only Tian Hao was still here.
"It's quite urgent. She said she's pregnant and wants me to go with her to the hospital for a check-up."
Helpless, Tian Hao could only continue to lie.
Lying was like this: once you told one lie, you had to use more lies to cover it up.
"Didn't you say you just got a girlfriend last month? And this month you feel she's pregnant? It's only the beginning of the month."
Wang Boguang was utterly bewildered. This remark made Ye Fan, who had just parked his car and entered, also momentarily stunned. He then looked at the security guard with a strange expression.
This physique, this face—one could tell he was an honest person at a glance.
His eye twitched, and finally, he patted Tian Hao's shoulder. Wang Boguang had no choice but to go himself.
"Thank you, Brother Wang!"
Tian Hao thanked him and quickly jogged out of the hotel, hailed a taxi to the largest bookstore in the area, and along the way, went to the bank to withdraw all the money from his card.
Sitting in the taxi, he forced himself to calm down and ponder what had just happened.
He didn't know if this was Transmigration or Rebirth. When he saw Ye Da Ben, his consciousness and memories, or rather, his past life's consciousness and memories, Awakened, as if breaking through the mystery of the womb.
In this life, his college entrance exam results were not ideal. He entered the big dye vat of society early and eventually, through an introduction from a fellow villager, came to Mount Tai to work as a security guard at a hotel, saving himself forty years of detours.
He just didn't expect this to be the Shrouding the Heavens World, which was a rather cruel world, with dark turmoil happening at any time, and the aftermath of powerful battles being very exaggerated.
It wouldn't be easy to develop cautiously and reach the end in this world. He wondered if he had a Golden Finger.
Oh, right, when his consciousness Awakened just now, there seemed to be an abnormal sensation in his mind.
Thinking of this, he quickly tried to focus his attention on his head and soon vaguely sensed that there seemed to be a piece of broken jade in his mind, and at the same time, a simple piece of information merged into his mind.
"This is stable now!"
After reading that information, Tian Hao felt much more at ease.
That piece of broken jade was his Golden Finger, and it might also be the entity that brought him through Transmigration and Rebirth. It had two functions: one was to take his true spirit consciousness to Transmigrate and Rebirth into other worlds, and the other was to temporarily enhance his Comprehension Ability.
The first one goes without saying and is easy to understand, except that the world of Transmigration cannot be determined.
The second ability was to temporarily enhance Comprehension Ability, and the importance of Comprehension Ability was self-evident. Whether it was comprehending those Emperor Sutras and Secret Arts for Cultivation, or later comprehending the Dao of heaven and earth, sufficient Comprehension Ability was required.
However, the Golden Finger's Comprehension Ability enhancement required consuming a power called 'Power of Destiny,' which needed to be obtained by changing destiny, or rather, the plot.
"It's similar to the side quest plot point settings in unlimited flow novels' main god space, but I don't know if there will be an increase in difficulty after changing the plot."
While contemplating these matters, he soon arrived at the bookstore.
First, he purchased the i ching and Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon with annotated translations, and then bought a set of human Meridians diagrams.
He was about to Transmigrate, so he naturally had to catch up on his reading.
The i ching and Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon on Earth still held some mysteries, especially the i ching.
Furthermore, although the Shrouding the Heavens method mainly focused on Secret Realm Cultivation, the human body also contained Meridians, which seemed to be recorded in books.
Ye Da Ben and the others would only go up the mountain tomorrow, so tonight was a good time to cram these knowledge. He would remember as much as he could, even taking the books with him.
Afterward, he went to an outdoor sports club and spent a large sum of money to buy a set of equipment, especially a sturdy backpack and outer jacket. According to the shop owner, they were made of Kevlar fiber, imported goods. There were only a few sets in this club, considered a luxury item for show.
Tian Hao picked the largest size set. Although it was still a bit tight when worn, saving his life was more important.
Then he took a taxi to a temple. With the introduction of the monks inside, he purchased a set of Eight Auspicious Offerings used for presenting to the Buddha.
Next, he went to the supermarket to buy some food and water, especially bottled water, which he could use to collect Divine Spring Water in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land.
When passing by the dairy product section, he suddenly had an idea. He selected one of every dairy product and also specifically bought a box of Zhonghua cigarettes. He rented a small pull cart at the supermarket to pull all his purchases back to his rented room.
Finally, he went to a phone store to buy the most expensive phone with the largest memory and paid extra for the boss to download some martial arts explanation videos from the internet. After that, he bought a small solar charging panel and a power bank, agreeing to pick them up tomorrow morning.
Given the extra three thousand yuan, the boss patted his chest and promised to stay up all night searching and downloading martial arts teaching videos online.
