The Charismatic Charlie Wade

When Maria returned after over three hundred years, the place had lost its original charm long ago.

Though Erhai was still the same Erhai, centuries of development had transformed its once pristine waters into a different sight from what it used to be. Standing on the vibrant and bustling Shuanglang Street, Maria found it challenging to reconcile her memories with the reality before her.

Thankfully, the changes in the mountains were not as drastic. A few peaks had been mined in the past, but the landscape alterations were relatively minor.

With Maria leading the way, Nori left their car in the town, donning the couple’s sneakers she had prepared. They embarked on foot towards the mountains.

As they set off, Nori quieted his mind, reducing the aura fluctuations on his body to a minimum. It seemed his mental preparation was indeed effective.

The mountains weren’t towering, with only a few hundred to a little over a thousand meters of altitude difference between the peaks and the ground. Climbing was relatively easy, and the scenic views along the way made it a popular trail for young hikers.

While heading toward the mountain pass, they encountered numerous outdoor enthusiasts clad in hiking gear. As they neared the foot of the mountain, Maria’s excitement became evident.

Pointing towards the mountain pass, she whispered to Rowan, “I climbed this mountain over three hundred years ago. Back then, there was a small path here, trodden by the locals. I never imagined that after all these years, the same path still exists.”

Nori smiled and replied, “Climbing a mountain is like finding the best route. Once you find it, as long as the mountain remains unchanged, the route will endure.”
