Lords of the Old Ones? I thought it was a speed bump.

Chapter 13 Giant Mountain Mental Hospital

On weekdays, Lin Jue would immediately ride his bicycle from the side gate to the port after school.

Even if Jiang Fan wanted to hang out with him, he wouldn't have much of a chance to run into him.

But today, unusually, this guy didn't ride his bike; instead, he walked along the main road towards the main entrance.

Isn't that a coincidence? Jiang Fan saw it and immediately followed him, wanting to drag him out to play together.

In fact, Lin Jue had already figured out Jiang Fan's little schemes.

The reason this guy always wants to take me out is, frankly, to attract girls' attention.

After all, Lin Jue not only has a handsome appearance, but also a strong physique, which makes him look very safe.

Especially when they take off their clothes, the little girl's cheeks turn red and the older girl's eyes light up.

They all wanted to devour him alive, like the flesh of Tang Sanzang.

One summer vacation, Lin Jue finally gave in to Jiang Fan's persistent pleading and was dragged to the beach for a trip.

As a result, after walking on the beach for a while in my swim trunks, I was surrounded by a group of beautiful women.

Faced with this situation, Jiang Fan, who was standing to the side, naturally chatted and joked with them happily.

Lin Jue, who had no interest in women, just stood there bored and lost in thought.

I feel that this pile of white, tender meat in front of me is not as delicious as boiled chicken breast.

After that, Lin Jue never went out with Jiang Fan again.

To avoid being used as a living advertisement to attract beautiful women, which would be a terrible thing.

"I'm busy." Faced with his friend's eagerness, Lin Jue shook his head and said:

"I need to go to the hospital in a bit, really, I'm not kidding."

"Hospital? First or Second Hospital? To see a muscle specialist or a urologist? Hahaha."

"...I'm going to Jushan Mental Hospital for psychiatric treatment. Will you come with me?"

The moment the words "Giant Mountain Mental Hospital" were uttered.

Jiang Fan, who had just been laughing and joking, suddenly froze.

He knew that "Giant Mountain Mental Hospital" was the best mental health treatment center in White Harbor.

Moreover, this mental hospital usually only admits one type of patient.

That is, patients with "delusional syndrome" or high-risk potential patients.

After realizing what was happening, Jiang Fan swallowed hard and asked cautiously:

"Are you kidding me? You don't have to go this far to scare me, do you?"

Lin Jue shrugged: "You know me, would I joke like that?"

Seeing that the other party still didn't quite believe him, Lin Jue then recounted the incident that had occurred at the dock the day before.

I heard that he actually witnessed a case of "delusional syndrome" and was even forced to undergo treatment because his sanity level was too low.

Jiang Fan gasped and shivered, saying:

"Holy crap, watching someone choke to death on a banknote sticking out of their mouth... just hearing about it sends chills down my spine, and it makes me feel like my sanity is plummeting."

"Right? So it's normal for the sheriff to send me to a mental hospital for treatment. It's not a big deal."

Compared to Jiang Fan, who was trembling all over, Lin Jue's attitude was very calm.

Because he was actually perfectly fine and didn't need any treatment at all.

However, after the initial shock, Jiang Fan suddenly had a strange idea.

"Oh, by the way, I found out online that reading erotic novels can restore sanity. Should I bring you ten or eight tomorrow to try?"

"...Forget it, that thing might be useful to you, but I don't need it."

As the two walked out of the gate of "Baigang High School" while chatting.

Jiang Fan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed excitedly to the opposite side of the school gate, muttering to himself:

"Look! There's a really pretty lady over there!"

Lin Jue looked in the direction he was pointing and immediately spotted that familiar face in the crowd.

Because it was a holiday today, Gu Qian wasn't dressed in her usual smart and capable outfit of a women's suit and long-sleeved trench coat, but rather in casual clothes.

Even in a simple shirt and jeans, she couldn't hide her strong, independent woman aura.

This strikingly beautiful and uniquely elegant woman standing at the entrance of Baigang High School was indeed quite eye-catching.

As a result, besides Jiang Fan, many male and female students were also secretly watching that figure.

At this moment, Lin Jue could only sigh, wave to his friend, and then walk towards the Beetle.

"My people are here, I'm leaving now, see you tomorrow."

"Huh? Wait a minute, you said the person who picked you up was... no way!"

Under Jiang Fan's surprised gaze, Lin Jue walked over and greeted the pretty older sister.

The two then got into the car one on each side and drove off as if no one else was around.

Before the car drove away, Lin Jue saw Jiang Fan's expression in the rearview mirror, an expression that looked like he had seen a ghost.

Anyway, Lin Jue didn't do anything wrong, so let others think what they want.

After getting on the bus, he even casually took out a strength training device from his bag and started twisting it without regard for anyone else.

A forearm strength trainer is an exercise device for strengthening the forearm wrist flexors, also known as a grip strength bar. It mainly trains arm strength and chest muscles.

The arm exerciser Lin Jue bought was the largest size; its arm was almost as thick as an adult's wrist, which was quite frightening.

Watching this young man sitting in the passenger seat wring this thing out as easily as wringing a towel.

Gu Qian raised her hand and brushed her hair aside. Though clearly concerned, she asked casually:

"You're quite strong. Do you train like this regularly? How can you keep this up?"

In fact, Gu Qian had already checked Lin Jue's information yesterday and knew that this young man had a habit of exercising.

Even when he was in class, he would stuff a tattered dumbbell into his desk and take it out to swing whenever he had a spare moment.

Of course, this lifestyle seems very strange to most people.

After all, this is a transcendent world where spiritual energy has been revived, so physical training here is almost pointless.

If you really encounter a paradoxical demon or a gate beast, you'll still be killed or eaten if you're supposed to be killed or eaten.

"It's not about persistence, it's about passion." Lin Jue raised an eyebrow and replied seriously.

"Everyone needs some hobbies. Some people like chasing girls, some like playing mahjong, some like making money... I like exercising. What's wrong with that?"

Faced with this well-reasoned explanation, Gu Qian was stunned.

After a moment, she gave an awkward laugh and stopped discussing the topic.

Lin Jue's statement is indeed entirely correct; everyone has the right to choose their own interests and hobbies.

It just feels a little strange to hear such logical and clear words coming from someone whose sanity is only 0.

For a moment, Gu Qian was confused about whether he was the mental patient or she was the mental patient.

About half an hour later, the small Beetle slowly drove into a building that resembled a military stronghold.

Lin Jue finally saw the true face of this rumored terrifying mental hospital for the first time.
