Seeing Lu Xin’s serious expression, Lao Zhou and Xiao Zhou exchanged glances. They did not dare to disturb or peek at him.
They had faith in Lu Xin not only because they had personally experienced the process of his “ghost treatment,” but also because of Lu Xin’s unique temperament. Look at him. After he agreed to this, he had been staring at the front of the car. He wrote and drew in his mysterious little notebook. He looked mysterious and professional. At first glance, he was completely different from ordinary people like him …
Of course, there was another important reason.
Last night, the front of the car actually let him go and did not choose anyone else for the whole night. This was already something beyond their expectations. Now, they were also wondering if the front of the car could still rest like yesterday.
If this could really go on, wouldn’t it be the same as being cured?
“Gu du toot …”
The aroma in the pot was getting stronger and stronger, and the stew was almost done.
Lu Xin also put down his notebook and carefully placed his fountain pen back into his bag.
Xiao Zhou looked at him enviously. brother little Lu is really particular about people. Even the pen he uses is so nice.
“Old Zhou, old Wang, Old Sun, old Li … Those who are more than five years old, gather at the front of the car …”
Before the three of them could get their rice, they suddenly heard someone whistle and shout.
Old Zhou, who had just picked up the bowl, suddenly turned pale. “This time … How do you want to torment people this time?”
“What are you thinking about?”
“I’m calling you guys over to discuss something!” The person who blew the whistle glared at him.
“Discuss something?”
Old Zhou was stunned for a moment before he reacted. “Alright then, let’s go!”
Lu Xin thought for a moment and decided to follow, but the person in charge of calling for help immediately looked at him and said, “”Brother, no one will say anything if you follow our convoy, but it’s not convenient for you to follow us when we’re discussing business.”
Lu Xin thought for a moment and agreed with him, “”Alright,” he said. brother Lu, shall I get you a bowl first?”
Xiao Zhou coaxed him attentively, but he had no intention of eating first.
! We’ll wait for your uncle to come back!”Lu Xin shook his head.
Although the uncle and nephew had promised to cover their own meals, it was polite to wait for someone to come and eat together.
Fortunately, not long after, old Zhou and a few other experienced drivers who had been called over came back. It was obvious that old Zhou was frowning and had a conflicted look on his face. He didn’t hurry to eat, but took out the map as soon as he sat down.
“What’s wrong, uncle?”
Little Zhou asked out of concern as he took a look at old Zhou’s belt.
“What are you looking at? I’m fine.”
“Do I look like the kind of person who would let your aunt down?”
Old Zhou glared at his nephew and said,”the front of the car called us over to talk about the schedule. Take a look …”
As he spoke, he pulled the map over and said, the Scout ran a little longer just now and came back saying that the bridge on the bridge was swallowed by a mudslide some time ago. More than half of it collapsed, so we can’t go on this road anymore. We have to change course and go around it.
“Take a detour?”
Xiao Zhou was a little nervous.
Although drivers like them who ran in the wilderness often took detours, they were also afraid of detours.
Detours often meant trouble outside of the plan.
“Yes,”
Elder Zhou frowned and sighed, “”We discovered it early and haven’t entered that road yet, so it’s not a big problem to change the route. However, if they took this detour and went to the West Road, they would have to make a huge detour to get to the central city. Our schedule was originally very generous, we will deliver the goods in five days, and we can have fun on the way, but after this detour, it may not be the case.”
“I don’t think we’ll be able to make it in five days.”
“What should we do then?” Xiao Zhou was a little nervous.
For the fleet, whether or not they could deliver the goods on time was a big problem.
Sometimes, if the trip was delayed, there was no need to run this time.
If you met some strict ones, they would not want your goods and would have to pay a lot of money.
“I’m also considering the front of the car.”
Mr. Zhou pointed to an area on the map that had been painted black with a pencil and said, ” if it really doesn’t work, we’ll have to pass through baita town and then go directly to the back of the Red Road beam. There are more main roads there. so we can get there in time.
White Tower town? ‘
Little Zhou’s face paled when he heard this. that’s an abandoned city. Isn’t it rumored to be haunted? ”
“Tsk .
“Which abandoned city doesn’t have a rumor of being haunted?” old Zhou gritted his teeth.
He had wanted to reprimand his nephew, but thinking of the ghost that had just happened to them yesterday, he was a little uncertain. He lowered his voice and said, ” we’ve discussed these things, but the head of the vehicle has been decided. She will go to this town with the Pathfinders tomorrow morning to explore. The rest of us will wait here and let us know when we’re sure that there’s no problem with the town.
“Do you want to Scout the way?
Little Zhou perked up a little and said, “”Who’s going? I also want to sign up.” Old Zhou glared at him, “you’re not afraid of the front of the car anymore?” “I’m afraid of her at night, but not during the day,” Xiao Zhou said.
“I need a motorcycle to explore the way, but I don’t have one …”
“Brother Lu, can I borrow your motorcycle for a ride?” he asked.
Lu Xin, who had just scooped a bowl of vegetables from the pot, blushed when he heard this.
He silently picked up his chopsticks and did not answer his question.
How could he just borrow. motorcycle …
Fortunately, old Zhou had already slapped his nephew so hard that he went to serve the dishes. He scolded, “”Are you trying to explore the way or are you trying to take the opportunity to drive the motorcycle? Sister Gao is going to do something serious. You don’t have any experience, and you’ll only add to the trouble if you follow her …”
“Alright, then …”
Xiao Zhou mumbled and gave her uncle one less spoonful of food.
When night fell, everyone would lean to the side of the cars, warming themselves up by the fire and chatting.
Not far away, someone was holding his throat and singing. waiting for the moment when the good man returns …
“I’m here to warm your bed .
Lu Xin tidied up the notes he had taken for the day and considered giving han Bing a call. However, he didn’t get much from his observation that day. Compared to what he had experienced last night and what his sister had peeked at, the front of the car named Gao ting had been acting very normal throughout the day.
However, it was also because of this normality that it formed a strong contrast with her strange behavior last night, which made it seem even weirder.
Let’s see if she will fall ill again tonight .
Lu Xin thought to himself, ” perhaps, when it comes to that, her behavior might be different from usual .
All of a sudden, Lu Xin realized a serious problem.
my sister is in charge of night observation. What if she saw something she shouldn’t have ..
He suddenly became anxious. His sister was still a child!
He was about to call his sister back when he suddenly heard a whistle in the distance.
Lu Xin’s heart skipped a beat, and the other old pilots were equally shocked. They quickly turned their heads to look.
But unexpectedly, after the whistle sounded, the one who came out was actually old Chen, who was scouting the way.
don’t let your thoughts run wild, ” he cursed. go to bed early. We have to Scout the road tomorrow.
Although his words were very unpleasant, the experienced drivers all knew that he was hinting to everyone that the front of the car was not picking people today.
How could this be? A sudden change in personality?
Many of them were reminded of Lu Xin from yesterday and subconsciously turned to look at Zhou zhouli’s tent.
Even old Zhou and little Zhou had a strange look on their faces. Little Zhou even subconsciously said, “”Brother Lu, have you fixed the front of the car?”
Lu Xin didn’t quite understand what was going on.
I haven’t even done anything yet …
However, he did not want old Zhou and little Zhou to see through his doubts, so he just nodded silently and added,
“I still need to continue observing!”
Old Zhou and little Zhou immediately looked at him with admiration.
Lu Xin felt a little proud of himself.lf she had really changed for the better, would that count as his credit?
Was this half a cart of goods already in the bag?
Of course, because they were used to the fear of the front of the car, they didn’t sleep well that night.
Many experienced drivers expressed that instead of spending the night in fear, it was better to have the front of the car hit the person early to feel at ease like before. They had to admit that sometimes, listening to the naughty laughter of the front of the car and the panicked cries of the young people falling asleep ..
It was also a form of enjoyment!
They had nothing to do for the entire morning, so old Zhou and little Zhou had their breakfast in a hurry and even wiped their faces.
The two dark-skinned uncle and nephew’s faces looked much paler.
It wasn’t until noon that they saw a motorcycle coming back from the distance. It was waving a green flag in its hand.
A few experienced drivers who had been waiting at the intersection immediately went up to him.
Not long after, a whistle was heard. The messenger rode on his motorcycle and shouted,
“Let’s get ready to set off!”
the front of the car has already run around the town with the people. There are no problems. We can pass through.
The old drivers, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately got into the car and drove out one by one.
Lu Xin sat in the front passenger seat and watched as the trucks drove up the road, one after another. Old Zhou’s car was at the back of the line, number nineteen.
The road ahead was as planned, but when they reached an intersection ten miles away, there was a motorcycle waiting for them.
The people in the car kept waving the green flag in their hands, pointing to another road.
They had considered everything more thoroughly. This was because they were worried that a muddled ghost would go the wrong way.
The road of anger was narrower than the main road, but it was not a problem for the trucks to drive on it.
Perhaps it was because there were fewer cars on this road, but the condition of this road was better than the main road.
After driving into the road of anger, one could see that the road was crooked and extended all the way into a city four or five miles away.
That city should be the White Tower town that old Zhou and the others had mentioned..
