In tragic films, a common technique to highlight the tragic nature of the characters is to depict them overcoming various difficulties and obstacles to escape death and crawl out of places like underground, traps, or disaster sites.

What awaited them was true Paradise —a sudden hail of bullets, or the mysterious flash of axes and blades, some even being apocalyptic meteors falling from the sky, all sorts of things that sent these poor movie characters to Paradise for free...

Then the audience just felt it was all a rip-off and felt these characters were so tragic...

At this moment, Old Lü was dressed up in this tragic character template.

He gritted his teeth, mustered his willpower and manly dignity, and once again managed to 'drift' the hand tractor into the second U-turn.

At that moment, Old Lü felt as if his whole body had fallen apart, but he also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But what appeared before them next was not a wide, straight road, but another terrifying U-shaped bend in the opposite direction, with an even greater arc.

"I'm doomed! I'm finished!" Old Lü screamed in agony.

This time, he was no longer able to maneuver the tractor into the second reverse U-turn—even if his back were perfectly fine.

Do you really think a hand tractor is a sports car? Even if a hand tractor can go up to 150 mph, it's still a hand tractor. In terms of handling, torque, braking, maneuverability, and other performance aspects, it can't compare to a sports car.

"Don't give up, Old Lü!" Dad Song shouted. He wished he could climb to the front and take Old Lü's place—but in reality, even if Dad Song took his place, there was nothing he could do. No matter how good his skills were, he couldn't change the fact that the hand tractor was about to rush off the mountain road.

Old Lü barely managed to make a U-turn, but the effect was not ideal.

Behind them, the sports car driven by three girls was slowing down, steadily maintaining its speed as it rounded the first bend.

Looking at the tractor at the second bend, Little Wheat Ear said dejectedly, "Oh dear, what a pity, the tractor has already passed the first bend."

"It's okay, it's great to capture him going through the second bend," said the fashionable Ase.

Then, the three sports cars slowed down again, reducing their speed to prepare for the second bend.

Meanwhile, they had their dashcams on, ready to capture the historic moment from three different angles as the racer sped through the S-shaped tunnel at over 100 miles per hour.

But at that moment, the tractor they saw as a racing god only symbolically swerved its front end towards the second bend... Then, the tractor crashed headlong into the guardrail of the lane!

Boom!

The originally sturdy guardrail, under the impact of a tractor traveling at over 100 yards, became as fragile as plastic and was snapped in one go.

The tractor leaped forward, hurtling towards the terraced slopes, tumbling downhill!

When the three girls saw this, they immediately and instinctively braked.

The tires of the sports cars screeched as they burned off the pavement, and the three sports cars came to a smooth stop on the side of the road.

"..." Little Wheat Ear was stunned.

"..." Fashionable woman Ase was also stunned.

"..." Zhao Yaya was stunned for a long time. Then, she hurriedly climbed out of the sports car and ran in a panic towards the place where the tractor had rolled down.

You know, Dad Song is still up there!

Little Wheat Ear and Ase also got out of the sports car and followed closely behind Yue Yaya.

The three girls ran to the gap in the railing and looked down.

At this moment, the tractor, like an overturned tortoise, was upside down on the cliff of the third terrace. Its four wheels were still spinning.

The three people on the tractor were trapped underneath, their fate unknown.

"Uncle, Uncle!" Zhao Yaya shouted, frantically pulling out her phone to call Mom Song.

Just then, Dad Song's voice came from behind the tractor trailer. "Cough cough cough! Old Lü, you son of a bitch, I'm not done with you yet! Say something, are you still alive?"

Then, two figures crawled out from under the overturned truck bed.

One of them was Dad Song, who wore glasses and had the air of a scholar.

The other was the burly and imposing Lü Tianyou.

Aside from being a little dirty, the two appeared to be completely unharmed!

"Dad, are you alright?" Lü Tianyou shouted at the top of his lungs.

"How could I be alright? Oh my god, get me out of here! My back hurts so much!" Old Lü's screams came from the front of the tractor.

Dad Song and Lü Tianyou hurriedly went to sit in front of the tractor.

The tractor's cab was tilted upwards, with a gap between it and the body of the tractor.

Old Lü happened to be huddled in this gap...

Apart from his previously sprained back, Old Lü was also completely unharmed.

However, some items that were originally placed in the small compartment next to the driver's seat next to Old Lü had all been emptied out.

Moreover, the oil drums and Song Shuhang's box that were placed in the back of the truck had rolled to the side. And the large meteorite, crushed by the truck, had already developed cracks...

Dad Song and Lü Tianyou worked together to pull Old Lü out from under the car.

Fortunately, no one was injured.

"Thankfully, all three are safe and sound." Old Lü said with an embarrassed smile after seeing that all three were safe.

"You're lucky you didn't die. If you hadn't insisted on using the tractor, this whole mess wouldn't have happened." Dad Song glared fiercely at Old Lü.

As he spoke, Dad Song recalled some vague memories of when the tractor had rushed off the mountain road.

He vaguely remembered that when the tractor sped off, there was a bright flash on its body, very noticeable!

Then, Dad Song felt himself land on the ground. But surprisingly, he felt no impact at all!

--They were clearly thrown from the mountain path onto the cliff of the third terrace, each terrace being five meters high, making a total height of fifteen meters.

Falling from such a height, with a tractor running over their heads, would normally be a near-fatal accident for all three! But now, aside from being a little dirty, they are completely unharmed.

"Uncle, Uncle! Are you alright?" At that moment, a melodious female voice came from the mountain path.

When Dad Song looked up, he saw Zhao Yaya in a white dress calling out to him.

Zhao Yaya was genuinely startled. If these terraced fields weren't so high, she would have jumped down long ago to give the three of them a full-body check-up, after all, she was a medical student.

"Huh? Ya Ya, what are you doing here?" Dad Song asked back. As he spoke, his gaze fell on the three sports cars parked by the roadside, and he immediately understood.

Just now... Old Lü's tractor overtook Zhao Yaya and her friends' sports car, didn't it?

So he smiled and waved to Zhao Yaya, saying, "We're fine, nothing's wrong, Yaya, don't worry!"

Zhao Yaya asked, "Uncle, should I call Aunt?"

"Don't rush, no need to rush. Call that kid Shuhang first and ask him to bring a long rope or something to get the three of us up there first," Dad Song shouted back.

Then, Dad Song glanced at the tractor lying on its side like a turtle... He estimated that a large crane would be needed to get the tractor back up.

Speaking of which, this tractor must have been modified. I wonder where that kid Shuhang got it from?

What if I borrowed it and broke it?

Where is he going to get a tractor that can go over 150 km/h to compensate them? Dad Song was distressed.

"Shuhang is home?" Zhao Yaya swiped through her phone contacts and dialed Song Shuhang's number.

The call was answered quickly.

"Huh? Sister Yaya, did you need something?" Song Shuhang's voice came through the phone.

"Shuhang, quickly prepare a long rope, preferably about thirty meters long, and bring it to the mountain path behind your house on Ox Summit Mountain. Follow the path and you'll see me. It's urgent," Zhao Yaya replied.

"The mountain path of Ox Summit Mountain? Sister Yaya, you're here too?" Song Shuhang asked in confusion, "What happened? Why do you need such a long rope?"

"Uncle Lü drove his tractor with my uncle off the mountain road and they've fallen onto the terraced fields beside the road. The terraces are quite high, and they can't climb up," Zhao Yaya replied.

"The car overturned? Is everyone alright?" Song Shuhang asked anxiously.

"They all seem to be fine, but we haven't checked them yet. We'll take a look after we bring them up," Zhao Yaya said.

"I'll be there right away," Song Shuhang replied, then hung up the phone.

"What I feared most has come to pass!" Song Shuhang sighed, then leaped up again. Because of his worry for his father's safety, he had unknowingly increased the speed of his <Gentleman Travels Ten Thousand Miles> technique.

He arrived at the accident scene a little over ten minutes later.

Looking from a distance, he could see red, blue, and white sports cars parked on the side of the road.

Zhao Yaya leaned against the railing, watching Uncle Lü and Dad Song below as they tidied up the items in the car.

The other two women were hiding inside the car enjoying the air conditioning.

Song Shuhang slowed down and ran towards Zhao Yaya at a normal 100-meter sprint pace, waving and calling out from afar, "Sister Yaya, where are Dad and the others?"

"Shuhang, you're finally here." Zhao Yaya pointed to the area below the damaged railing and said, "Uncle and the others are down there... Hey, Shuhang, where's the rope? How come you came empty-handed?"

"I was already nearby when you called, and I ran all the way here. My dad and Uncle Lü had a few drinks today, and then they drove out in their tractor. I was worried, so I followed behind them," Song Shuhang said with a wry smile.

He couldn't lie to Zhao Yaya, so he simply concealed the fact that he had arrived using the "Gentleman Travels Ten Thousand Miles" technique.

"There's no other way, so we'll just have to call roadside assistance and ask them to help rescue the people and get the tractor up here while they're at it," Yue Yaya said.

Song Shuhang hurriedly said, "No need, Sister Yaya, I can find someone to help bring the tractor up. I have a friend who specializes in these kinds of things. As for Dad and the others... I'll go down and bring them up first."
