Chapter 48 She is a Bull Cart Driver

Lin Qi noticed the abnormal weather earlier than the villagers. She originally planned to send the prey out and not go into the mountains today. However, as soon as she returned to the educated youth camp, she clearly noticed the changes in temperature and moisture in the air.

This is going to change the situation.

Lin Qi didn't know how heavy the rain was or how long it would last, but considering the animals in the mountains that had just settled in her territory, she didn't hesitate and went back into the mountains.

She went to the mountains and used her special powers to create some trees with lush branches and leaves. She also created vines between some of the branches, allowing the vines to shuttle back and forth between the trees, weaving into an impenetrable net.

Lin Qi used vines to arrange no less than twenty places to shelter from the wind and rain. These places were large and small, and most of them were located in relatively high places.

Worried that the rain would last for a long time, Lin Qi simply used her supernatural powers to cover the area, causing the vegetables, crops, and plants to grow taller. Corn, peanuts, soybeans, and sweet potatoes all bore fruit, and Lin Qi planted pumpkins, cucumbers, wax gourds, loofahs, winter melons, and other fruits everywhere, regardless of the season. A vine bore more than a dozen fruits, each one a circle or two larger than those seen outside.

With so much food, they should not be short of food even if it rains for several days in a row.

Lin Qi returned to the educated youth camp from the mountains. She didn't even have dinner. She fell exhausted on the bed and fell asleep in a second.

She was not awakened until Gan Tian and Ma Guizhi came back.

"The captain just said that we will not rest tonight and we have to work overtime to collect the food. We will set off now, so you should move faster." Gan Tian said to Lin Qi.

We have to rush to harvest tonight. Now Lin Qi is a popular figure in the team. If she doesn't go, she will definitely be noticed. Then, someone will definitely use this as an excuse.

"gather--"

"gather--"

"Hurry up and gather, we are about to set off!"

There were people shouting inside the educated youth point, and there were also people shouting outside the educated youth point. All kinds of urging voices filled the entire brigade.

Lin Qi came out of the room and saw the twinkling torches. She drank some water, stuffed a few White Rabbit milk candies into her mouth, and then slowly walked towards the place where the sparks were most densely packed.

There were not many flashlights in the team, and as Lin Qi walked along, there were more people holding torches. When the deputy captain saw her, he strode over and asked, "Can you drive a car?"

"without--"

"You are good at fishing and hunting, so driving a cart will be no problem for you." The deputy captain interrupted Lin Qi.

It was dark at night and people could not see the road clearly. The bulls were also easily frightened by the coming and going people and torches. The deputy captain was having a headache about where to find someone who could calm down those fiery bulls, and then he saw Lin Qi.

The deputy captain gave Lin Qi a cow and a car, and left in a hurry, saying without even turning his head, "You walk slowly, so you are allowed to ride on the cow.

Lin Qi: “….”

In Anliang Brigade, except for children under four years old, everyone went out. Teenagers and the elderly were responsible for harvesting, young and middle-aged people were responsible for carrying the corn on their shoulders and backs, and even children of four or five years old could break off the corns one by one and throw them into bamboo baskets and backpacks.

Lin Qi sat on the back of an ox, driving a cart to pull carts of grain back to the brigade's warehouse. In the warehouse, there were several young men in charge of unloading the goods. They were shirtless, and their dark skin was dripping wet as if they had been splashed with water.

Seeing Lin Qi, these young men secretly glanced at her, and somehow, they worked harder.

"Lin Qi, next time you go fishing, can you take me with you?" a young man asked bravely.

Lin Qi turned her head and met a pair of sparkling eyes, "No, fish."

"Then let's make an appointment for next year. My name is Luo Qingbai, remember my name." Luo Qingbai reminded.

Lin Qi nodded and remembered it, but did not agree to go fishing together.

Xu Hexiao was also responsible for carrying food. Lin Qi sat on the back of the ox, looking down from above, and could only see the boy's furry head. In private, his eyes were always on her, but at this moment, he didn't even dare to look at her.

At this moment, Lin Qi felt a surge of powerlessness in her heart, and anxiety arose for no reason.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Bang!

The wheel hit the stone.

The middle-aged man anxiously shouted "Get out of the way" while pulling the rope hard, but the manic bull didn't listen to him. It pulled an empty ox cart and rushed forward all the way, and was about to hit the back of Lin Qi's ox cart.

"Lin Qi——"

Xu Hexiao was startled and reached out to pull Lin Qi off the cow's back.

But his hand fell empty.

Lin Qi turned around quickly and jumped onto the car. She ran two quick steps on the car, jumped off the car, and rushed towards the mad bull.

She is crazy!

The people present were watching this scene in shock, with the only thing in their eyes left was the slender figure and the bull charging towards them.

The pale and slender hand pressed against the bull's head's brow. The powerful force of inertia made her unable to control herself and she took two steps back.

But it was just two steps, she stopped, and the cow stopped too.

call--

Xu Hexiao exhaled lightly, and his whole body seemed to have suddenly lost all its strength, and went limp.

He thought that one day, Lin Qi would scare him sick.

"Really stopped! This Lin Qi is quite capable!"

"How can she be so good? Look at what she has done recently. Not a single one of them can be done by an ordinary person!"

"I didn't expect she could control the bull. What was she doing just now, touching the bull's head? Can she still do that?"

"Don't learn from her, or you'll be crushed to pieces by the cow's hooves."

"This cow probably wants to rest and is in a bad mood."

"If people can't rest, it's no use thinking about it!"

"Stop talking nonsense and get to work. It's going to rain heavily. It's the middle of the night, there's not a breath of wind, and it's getting hotter and hotter. It's going to rain heavily for sure!"

"Disperse, disperse, brothers, hurry up and do it!"

.......

The crowd quickly dispersed.

Xu Hexiao also withdrew his gaze and left with the crowd.

"This cow is in a bad mood and I can't control it. How about you do it?" the middle-aged man asked Lin Qi.

Lin Qi hummed and pointed to her ox cart. "That one, give it to you."

"Okay, okay!" The middle-aged man gave the rope to Lin Qi and ran to the front.

Lin Qi stood where she was and continued to comfort the bull.

The car in front was quickly filled up, and as soon as that car left, it was Lin Qi's turn.

At this time, another rice-carrying vehicle was approaching from behind. Lin Qi pulled the vehicle aside to make way for the other vehicle. The vehicle was pulled by a cow, and the one holding the rope was an elderly grandfather. The grandfather was shouting "Hey, hey, hey, hey" to cheer for the cow.

The rice cart was loaded so high that Lin Qi couldn't see its top.

The old man was experienced and passed the narrow road easily.

Lin Qi was still admiring the grandfather's driving skills in the last second, and the next second she heard a bang, the cow knelt on her knees, and the ox cart fell forward -

The old man was startled and pulled the rope hard.

The cow was also trying hard, but as soon as it stood up, it knelt down again.

"No, it has no strength." The old man said helplessly. He untied the straps on the cow's neck and let the cow out of the cart frame.

The old man turned around and saw Lin Qi leading the ox cart there, and immediately ordered her, "Switch your ox over."

Lin Qi led the cow over without saying a word.

"This car is left to you." The old man did not give Lin Qi a chance to refuse and led the cow away.

Lin Qi sighed and patted the bull's head, "Come on, it's up to you."

Time passed little by little, and Lin Qi didn't know how many times she had pulled the ox, if not more than 20 times, at least 10. She didn't feel tired sitting on the ox's back, but the ox was very tired.

Torches were replaced one after another, and the captain's slogans almost never stopped, his throat was smoking.

Everyone was sleepy and tired, and they only relied on their determination to persevere.

"Everyone, if we work harder, we will finish the collection soon!" shouted the captain.

As he finished his words, a bolt of lightning came down from the sky with a ripping sound and struck not far from them.

"Hurry! Hurry!" The team leader rushed into the field with a flashlight, picked up a bag of corn and ran away.

Lin Qi remained calm and directed her special powers to flow through the bull's body, eliminating its fatigue and trying to make it feel more comfortable.

The ox cart was soon filled. Lin Qi whipped the ox lightly on its back, and the bull walked out.

"Lin Qi, crack the whip, speed up!" the captain shouted. Three of the eight oxen pulling the cart were exhausted, and four were exhausted. Now they could only load half of the cart, and were moving very slowly. Only the one in Lin Qi's hand looked energetic and did not slow down.

Lin Qi looked at the sky. Rain was already falling not far away. Then she whipped the bull hard, and with a snap, the bull started to trot.

When Lin Qi returned to the warehouse, raindrops just started to fall.

"Lin Qi, come this way!" Luo Qingbai pointed the way to Lin Qi.

Lin Qi drove the ox cart over and stopped under the eaves of a spacious house.

"There's another car over there. You can harness the other one and go." Luo Qingbai directed Lin Qi.

Lin Qi did not refute, and led the cow to another car. Just as she was about to drive away, Luo Qingbai came over with a ball of oilcloth and threw it on her car, "Okay, let's go."

Bean-sized raindrops fell densely, and there was a tendency to get heavier and heavier.

Torches were extinguished by the rain, and only a few flashlights were still lit. The batteries in the flashlights had been replaced several times, and now the brightness was greatly reduced.

However, Lin Qi and Gong Niu had walked this road nearly twenty times, so they were not lost.

"The car is skidding, come over here and help push it!" someone shouted in the rain.

Lin Qi looked up and saw that the car was not far away from her. There was a lot of yellow mud in that area, and it was normal to slip when it rained and people were walking around.

Now not only the wheels are slipping, but the cow's feet are also slipping.

Soon people came to push the cart. At first there were three or four people, and later it became seven or eight people. Only then did they push the ox cart out of the mud.

The road became difficult to walk on, and Lin Qi couldn't help but become cautious.

"Lin Qi, where is Lin Qi, come quickly!" the captain shouted in the rain.

Lin Qi did not respond.

But the captain was still shouting, "Lin Qi, if anyone sees Lin Qi, tell her to come over quickly!"

Lin Qi: “….”

Very well, just take her and her bull and use them for your own good!
