When the big cart stopped to rest, old Zhou and the others would drive the small car to search the surrounding villages.
In addition to the trucks, they also had many motorcycles, which were also parked in rows beside them.
These were all operated by the security team and the pathfinding team.
After the Crimson Moon, the carriages would each carry out their own duties, which was essential.
A fire had been set up in the open space of the service area, and rows of tents had been set up next to it. Some people were roasting some unknown meat and drinking wine while talking next to the tents, while others were lying in the driver’s cabin and smoking cigarettes silently.
After Lao Zhou parked the car, he was not in a hurry to unload the goods. He first greeted Lu Xin before walking to the service area.
As soon as he entered the hall, he saw that it was empty. Everything inside had been moved away, leaving only an empty shell. The long dining tables and benches had been randomly piled up against the wall. In the middle of the hall, a tent was set up and a fire was lit.
At this moment, a few people were discussing something in low voices under the light of the bonfire.
“Hehe .
Old Zhou was all smiles. He was holding a fitting mirror that was half the size of a man, and there was a big red “happy” word printed on the mirror. He walked up to them.”The car … Head of the car, look what I’ve brought you …”
Before he could finish his sentence, a dirty and smelly towel was suddenly thrown at him, directly sticking to his face.
In front of the tent, a woman with long and strong legs jumped up with a bamboo pole in her hand. She slapped old Zhou’s face and said, ” f * ck, you still know how to come back. You’re always thinking about that broken thing. If something really happens, will everyone come to you? ‘
“If I look for you and delay the delivery time, will you be responsible?”
“Hey, hey … There was an accident, otherwise I would have come back long ago
Mr. Zhou turned around and took two hits on his back. Then, he continued to smile and handed the mirror over.
this is for the front of the car. I’ve seen it. It’s not broken .
As she spoke, she moved aside to reveal Lu Xin, who had followed behind her, there’s one more thing to tell the head of the car. We were lost just now. It was all thanks to this little brother from qingang that we were able to get lost. Otherwise, we would have definitely been lost by the ghost … This little brother is on a business trip to the central city. It’s inconvenient for him to travel alone, so we brought him back to join us. Is that okay?”
“What ghost?”
The driver frowned and turned to Lu Xin. “You’re from the underworld?”
Lu Xin also raised his head to look at her, only to see a woman at least 1.75 meters tall.
She was wearing a pair of skinny jeans with a pair of long legs wrapped in gray cloth.
She looked like she was in her thirties, but her facial features were unexpectedly good looking.
Perhaps it was because he had been running in the wilderness for a long time, his skin was rough and there was a scar on his face.
“What do you do?”
The driver sized Lu Xin up and asked with a frown. He didn’t seem to be a scammer.
Hello, I’m Lu Xin. I’m going to visit my family in the central city.
yes, ” Lu Xin answered honestly. A smile appeared on his face as he took two steps forward and extended his hand.
Whoosh.
Behind the long-legged motorcycle, the two silent men immediately reached for their waists, revealing the black gun handles.
The driver didn’t shake hands with Lu Xin. He frowned and said, “”You’re going to the central city from Green Harbor by yourself?”
“This …”
Lu Xin retracted his hand in embarrassment. actually, not just me. My father, my mother, my sister, and my little dog are also with me. We’re going to visit relatives in the central city and help deliver some documents, but they’re not here right now.
Both Lao Zhou and Xiao Zhou were taken aback by Lu Xin’s words. They had not heard him mention his family.
“Got lost?” the front of the car was also a little curious.
“I guess so,” Lu Xin replied after some serious thought.
He did not try to explain his family’s situation in detail.
Although he didn’t like to lie, he knew that lying occasionally would avoid a lot of trouble.
People who ran in the wilderness were very vigilant. If he told them about his family, they might be frightened.
In order to get a letter, he was ready to tell a story about his sister who got lost because she was playful
However, even he did not expect the front of the car to be so quick.
She pondered for a moment and didn’t ask any further questions. She sized Lu Xin up and said, “”We’re all running around in the wilderness. It’s only right for us to help each other in this world-breaking path. But I hope you understand that we’re just a group of people who run big businesses to earn hard-earned money. We don’t want to cause trouble, and we’re not afraid of trouble. If you want to follow us, you can, or you can trade for something, but don’t cause any trouble …”
As he spoke, he stared at Lu Xin’s face with his narrow eyes, “”Do you understand?”
Lu Xin was a little surprised, but he nodded his head honestly. “I understand.”
“That’s enough,”
The driver waved the bamboo pole in his hand. “Let’s go out. Old Zhou, tell him about the rules of our team.
“Alright, alright .
yes! Mr. Zhou quickly agreed and pulled Lu Xin out of the room.
Everything was going smoothly, but for some reason, Lu Xin felt that the gazes of the people around him were a little strange.
Not only them, but even elder Zhou and little Zhou’s eyes flickered.
After they left, the person behind the car could not help but say, “”lt’s not good to have an unknown origin, right?” it’s fine. We’ll be there in two days. If there’s a problem, we can’t hide. It’s better to stay by our side and watch.
The driver waved the bamboo pole in his hand and said, ” moreover, old Zhou is as smart as a donkey. If there’s really a problem, would he bring it back? ‘
The two people behind him looked at each other and did not say anything more.
He only sighed in his heart, as if he had already guessed something.
“Do you see the problem?”
Mr. Zhou asked anxiously after he left the service Hall with Lu Xin.
“Who is it?”
Lu Xin was dumbfounded upon hearing this.
“The front of the car, can’t you tell?”
Old Zhou was obviously surprised, and Zhou xiaomao, who was beside him, also came over.
“Her?” Lu Xin couldn’t help but furrow his brows, “”What’s the problem with her?” “She .
Elder Zhou’s face clearly showed a hesitant expression. After a long while, he seemed to have gathered his courage and said in a low voice, suspect . . It’s not me, but actually, many people have doubts … The head of our car has been changed … Or rather, he had changed his body … Let’s put it this way, when we were in the front of the car, she was still her head, but her body was no longer
Lu Xin struggled to understand what Mr. Zhou was trying to say.
His head was his, but his body wasn’t?
Why did these words sound so strange?
After trying hard to understand it, he frowned and asked, “”What’s going on?”
Old Zhou and little Zhou looked troubled. They shook their heads and said, “”lt’s what I just said … Don’t you see the problem?”
Lu Xin felt a little guilty.
If that woman really had a problem and he didn’t see it, he would feel that he had let down her trust.
“Should I go and take a look?” he turned around hesitantly.
“Don’t, don’t. don’t …”
“The front of the car will hit people …. Old Zhou hurriedly stopped him.
Little Zhou thought carefully for a moment, then lowered his voice and said, “”Why don’t we wait a little longer? you’ll know later …”
Mr. Zhou suddenly thought of something and looked at Lu Xin with pity.
When they returned to the truck, old Zhou and Zhou xiaomao unloaded the goods from the truck and loaded them into the truck they were driving. The other took out a simple tent from the carriage and set it up beside the truck. He even laid out two quilts on the ground.
Then, she took a few steamed buns and some salted meat and roasted them by the fire. She generously gave Lu Xin two pieces.
Lu Xin didn’t refuse. Even though he had already had a meal in the village, he would treat this meal as a midnight snack.
The fire was quiet, and there was laughter, singing, and snoring from time to time.
The atmosphere of the convoy was calm and free.
But after about half an hour, a long whistle suddenly sounded.
“Swish!”
Everyone immediately tensed up. They hurriedly pulled down the curtains, stepped on the fire to put it out, and entered the tent with a whoosh.
Lu Xin was still sitting outside, unable to react in time.
Zhou xiaomao, who was in the tent, had already poked his head out and shouted nervously, “”Hurry up and come in!”
