"Nonsense!"
Lin Fan scoffed, "I'm not blind, do I need you to tell me it's a car?"
Tian Mengyao suddenly felt that Lin Fan was acting strangely.
She sighed and patiently explained, "A car weighs at least a ton, two thousand catties. Even the strongest Russian weightlifter couldn't lift it."
Lin Fan rubbed his hands, stretching his muscles as a warm-up, and said with a smile, "The front of the car is still up there. I won't be bearing the full weight. I think I can manage."
"You're really going to lift it?"
"Was I kidding you?"
Tian Mengyao rolled her eyes at Lin Fan and snorted, "Fine, you're insisting on being strong. If you can't lift it, don't blame me for laughing at you!"
Tian Mengyao thought to herself, "He wants to show off his manliness in front of me!"
"Hmph!"
"You've miscalculated!"
"I'll make a fool of you and have a good laugh!"
Lin Fan raised his chin, gesturing, "You go wait in the driver's seat. When I tell you to reverse, start backing up."
"Take it slow, little by little. If you run me over, I won't forgive you."
An ordinary person would never have thought of such a plan.
Even if it were possible to lift it, what if the driver made a mistake while reversing? That would be disastrous.
However, Lin Fan wasn't worried.
He had the Purple Qi protecting him. Even if he were to be run over by the car, he would at most suffer some superficial injuries.
"Okay, got it."
Tian Mengyao thought, "I'll just sit in the car and watch you make a fool of yourself."
Lin Fan found a suitable position and slid his hands under the rear of the car.
Although it wasn't the easiest position to exert force, he felt that it wouldn't be a problem.
"Start the car!"
Lin Fan shouted.
"Okay~"
Tian Mengyao responded, but inwardly she snorted, "Acting like it's a real thing."
After the car started, Lin Fan took several deep breaths and began to circulate the Purple Qi within his body.
The next second, a warm Purple Qi surged rapidly through his meridians and into his limbs.
Waves of heat made him feel as if his entire body was filled with immense power!
When this power reached his hands, he immediately roared, "Lift!"
From his legs to his waist, and then to his back muscles, the strength was transmitted layer by layer to his arms.
Boom!
A muffled sound.
The van, stuck in the ditch, was suddenly lifted by him!
Tian Mengyao, in the driver's seat, felt a sudden jolt. Her car, which had been tilted, suddenly became level.
Her mind went blank with a buzzing sound!
"Reverse, what are you doing?"
Lin Fan bore the weight of thousands of catties, yet the car's wheels hadn't moved.
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Hey!"
Lin Fan roared, finally waking up the stunned Tian Mengyao.
Tian Mengyao was flustered, muttering, "Reverse, reverse..."
Her hands and feet wouldn't obey her.
After a while, she finally found the reverse gear and the accelerator.
Screech!
The car's wheels spun a few times, nearly toppling Lin Fan.
He stumbled a few steps, barely managing to regain his balance.
He was so angry he felt like cursing.
Tian Mengyao poked her head out of the window and asked with concern, "Xiao Fan, are you okay?"
"Stop messing around and listen to my instructions!"
Lin Fan shouted with anger.
"Mhm."
Tian Mengyao replied obediently.
Her heart was still pounding.
Then, she suddenly felt the car move backward.
"This..."
Tian Mengyao pinched her arm.
"Hiss~"
The pain was so real, it told her this wasn't a dream.
There was indeed a mighty person lifting a van and dragging it backward!
Lin Fan gritted his teeth, inching the car backward step by step.
The Purple Qi filled him like swirling mist, giving him endless strength.
He slowly bent his knees, gently lowering the car's wheels to the bottom of the ditch.
As long as the chassis wasn't stuck, Tian Mengyao could drive the car back onto the road with just a little reversing.
Bang!
A muffled thud.
The van wobbled a few times.
Lin Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead and grumbled, "If it weren't for this silly girl's incompetence, would I have to struggle like this!"
He shook his head helplessly and shouted to Tian Mengyao, "Hey, what are you spacing out for? Hurry up and drive the car out!"
Tian Mengyao looked at him as if he were an alien, "Oh, okay."
"What are you daydreaming about? Hurry, hurry..."
Lin Fan took a couple of steps back, urging her on.
Tian Mengyao snapped back to reality and began to reverse, glancing at the rearview mirror.
Thump!
A loud noise.
The van completely fell into the ditch, and its body finally leveled out.
Then, Tian Mengyao carefully reversed the car onto the road and parked it beside Lin Fan.
Lin Fan opened the car door, got into the passenger seat, and complained, "This road really needs to be repaired later. Don't be stingy with the money!"
Tian Mengyao nodded obediently, "Okay, I understand."
She slowly continued driving forward, occasionally turning her head to look at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan was startled, "What are you doing? Why are you keep looking at me?"
Tian Mengyao took a deep breath and asked, "Did you... did you really lift the car and drag it for several steps just now?"
Lin Fan smiled and retorted, "Wasn't me dragging it, did it grow wings and fly itself?"
"How did you do it?"
Tian Mengyao had always felt that Lin Fan was not simple, and now she was even more convinced.
Lin Fan chuckled proudly, "You said yourself that no one in Luofeng Village dares to bully you except me. Without some skills, would I have this much guts?"
"Stop it! You're making me angry again!"
"Alright, alright. Hurry up and drive, don't waste time."
Tian Mengyao drove less than a hundred meters forward before she couldn't help but ask again, "How exactly did you do it?"
Lin Fan remained silent, pretending not to hear.
Unable to get an answer, Tian Mengyao began to act cute, "Please~ Tell me, okay?"
Lin Fan looked at her with disdain and reprimanded, "What are you doing, what are you doing? What are you trying to do?"
"The village party secretary, how can you speak like that?"
"What kind of conduct is this?"
Tian Mengyao pouted, "If you don't want to tell me, then don't. Who cares if I know!"
She pouted her little lips and continued driving, looking unhappy.
Ten minutes later, the two finally arrived at their destination.
After getting out of the car, Tian Mengyao pointed to a mountain hollow that resembled a canyon and said, "I plan to build the office here."
The place she indicated had a pond that was about half an acre in size.
"You really know how to pick a spot!"
Lin Fan discreetly activated his Purple Extreme Spirit Eyes.
The location of the pond was precisely a gathering place of spiritual energy.
And the stream behind the pond was the only source of living water in Luofeng Mountain.
This way, the irrigation problem was immediately solved.
It's just that...
Developing it would be difficult, and it looked like it would cost a lot of money.
