"Quick, stop the car! There's someone sitting in the road ahead!"

"We can't stop!"

Upon hearing this, Ah Long immediately panicked: "If you don't stop, you'll run someone over!"

The driver seemed very experienced as he explained.

“How could she run someone over? She would have moved aside when she saw our car coming. If we stop now, we'll be in trouble.”

"No, no, we should stop the car and take a look."

Sizzle!

Unable to persuade Ah Long, the driver had no choice but to stop the car, and the two cars behind him also stopped.

At this moment.

The driver pulled a piece of steel pipe out from under the seat and said.

"You'd better take it; better safe than sorry."

Seeing that the driver was kind, Ah Long thanked him and accepted the steel pipe he was given.

He then opened the car door and jumped out of the passenger seat.

Whoosh!

As soon as Ah Long jumped out of the car, dozens or even hundreds of people rushed out from both sides of the road.

Upon seeing this, he broke out in a cold sweat and shouted at the truck.

"Brothers, grab your weapons!"

Instantly.

Nearly 30 burly men emerged from the three vehicles, each carrying a weapon.

The villagers were dumbfounded when they saw this.

What an unlucky year! I've actually run into someone who was prepared.

Although the village has a large population of nearly a hundred, the vast majority of them are elderly, weak, and women.

These burly men in front of me are clearly trained fighters. If a fight breaks out, nearly a hundred of them could end up dead.

"withdraw!"

Someone in the crowd shouted.

Nearly a hundred people, along with the woman sitting in the middle of the road, disappeared into the roads on both sides in the blink of an eye.

Even after getting back into the car, Ah Long was still shaken.

No wonder Chen Dong hired a group of veterans as employees; he had anticipated this situation long ago.

"It's all my fault for being too naive!"

The thought of how he almost ruined Chen Dong's big plan made Ah Long want to slap himself.

The car restarted.

On the way, the driver, unfazed by the sight, told Ah Long many stories about highway robbers and bandits.

“Some bandits would infiltrate the passengers and wait until the vehicle reached a secluded corner. Then, three or five of them would pull out knives and rob the passengers. If anyone dared to resist, they would be stabbed.”

“Some unscrupulous ones will cooperate to drive the bus to a designated roadside restaurant for a meal. Whether you eat or not, everyone has to pay tens or hundreds of yuan for the meal. If you don’t pay, they’ll give you a good beating.”

"......."

"Brother, our trucking business isn't much better. If someone tries to stop us on the road, we absolutely mustn't stop."

"Think about it carefully. This is a desolate place with hardly any houses. If you suddenly see someone sitting in the middle of the road stopping cars, it would be strange if there wasn't something fishy going on!"

Ah Long felt even more ashamed after hearing the driver's words.

What the driver said were all painful lessons.

It is the experience summarized by countless truck drivers after being robbed.

These days, driving isn't a necessary skill for everyone, unlike in later generations.

In the workplace, being a driver is considered a profession, a skilled job, and a highly valuable one at that.

Those who can drive big trucks for transportation are people who can make a lot of money, and they are also the fat sheep in the eyes of road bullies.

However, the long-distance truck drivers are not afraid of anything. They have prepared steel pipes, machetes, and some even have homemade guns hidden under their seats.

If they really encounter robbery, they will draw their weapons and fight, and they won't care about anything else. This is all because they are forced into this situation by highway robbers.

Today, the truck driver could have completely ignored Ah Long's instructions and driven straight there. With his years of transportation experience, he wouldn't have run into any problems.

The reason for stopping the car was because Ah Long's group had a large number of people, nearly 30 strong men.

When have truck drivers ever received such treatment?

Each vehicle can accommodate three people, which is considered a luxury version. With nearly 30 people, what's there to be afraid of!

If we really run into that, we're doomed!

Three cars headed north.

They encountered two more groups of bandits.

This time, Ah Long learned his lesson and followed the driver's advice, not stopping the car midway, but proceeding slowly.

really.

When those road bullies saw the car keep moving and head straight for them, they no longer dared to lie in the middle of the road pretending to be dead.

Immediately, they slunk up and made way for each other.

Upon witnessing this scene.

Ah Long was completely impressed and gave the driver several thumbs-up.

However, this tactic stopped working once the convoy entered Hebei province.

"Master, what's going on up ahead? Why is there a coffin on the road?"

The truck driver's eyes widened, and after seeing the coffin on the road, his expression instantly turned grim.

"It's over! We're completely finished!"

"If we don't give them money, we can forget about getting through."

Upon hearing this, Ah Long inquired.

"What's going on? Why are they asking us for money?"

"Just for this!"

The driver pointed ahead, in the direction where the coffin was located.

Beside the coffin was a funeral procession of nearly a hundred people, all dressed in mourning clothes.

A group of women wept uncontrollably, while the men in the procession all had eyes blazing with fury, as if someone had committed a blood feud against them.

The driver said with a hint of helplessness.

"Look at them, all dressed in mourning clothes. They're using the dead as an excuse to extort money from us."

"These excuses are nothing more than saying that his family members were killed in the accident, but the driver fled the scene, so all the cars that passed by on this road are suspects and have to pay compensation."
