Those people collected their belongings and dispersed.
Instead, Lu Wanzheng and Xiaohua were left standing alone in the same spot.
Being in an unfamiliar place, the two of them had no idea where to go or what to do. They only knew the name of their destination, but they didn't know how to get there.
Lu Wanzheng took out her phone, which showed the address Xiao Wang had sent her.
They were standing where they were not yet at their final destination; it just meant they had no more transportation to take.
They were left with two options: one was to contact Xiao Wang and ask the production crew to send a car to pick her up, but the crew was probably busy filming at that time, and Xiao Wang might not have time to answer her calls. Even if he did have time, the round trip would waste a lot of time.
Secondly, it depends on luck—whether they can find a local car, any kind will do, as long as it can carry people, to take them to the film set.
If this second option had been offered in the past, Lu Wanzheng would have definitely given it up without hesitation.
But things are different now—
She has luck!
The two stood at the entrance of the village. Lu Wanzheng looked calm and composed, wearing a straw hat that she had prepared for her to protect herself from the sun.
Xiao Hua was anxious, and her anxiety deepened when she saw Lu Wanzheng's indifference.
Her forehead was already covered with beads of sweat from anxiety.
In such hot weather, she was afraid that the two of them would inevitably suffer from heatstroke if they stood like this for too long.
"Sister Wanzheng, what should we do next?" The more anxious Xiaohua became, the hotter she felt.
Lu Wanzheng looked around. "Don't rush, wait a little longer." She could vaguely see a black dot-like thing walking towards them in the distance. "Look there." Lu Wanzheng pointed to the distance.
She said that her luck wouldn't be bad.
It's here so soon.
Xiao Hua looked in the direction Lu Wanzheng was pointing and saw something as well. However, the two were now closer, so Xiao Hua could see it more clearly.
It looks like an animal similar to a horse, but smaller and thinner.
A middle-aged man drove a mule cart from a distance.
You can still faintly hear the middle-aged man shouting and driving the mule.
Not far away, Xiaohua shouted to the uncle, "Uncle, stop!"
Upon hearing the sound, the middle-aged man tightened the reins, and the mule slowed its pace, stopping close to Lu Wanzheng and Xiaohua.
"Young ladies, what can I do for you?" The middle-aged man had dark skin, the marks left by years of sun exposure, and a fierce face, but when he spoke, he revealed a set of white teeth, and his voice carried a strong rural accent.
His chin was covered in sparse, unshaven stubble, and a white towel hung around his neck, though it was covered with a little fine sand from his journey. He held the reins in one hand and a pipe in the other.
The smoking pipe looks like an old item.
When Xiaohua saw the man's face clearly, she instinctively stepped back.
The uncle could see everything Xiaohua did, but he didn't say anything.
"Uncle, could you take us to Kongjia Village? We can pay for the journey."
The uncle glanced at Lu Wanzheng, then at Xiaohua, and then at the luggage behind them.
He took a puff of smoke from his pipe, and wisps of smoke billowed from his mouth.
The uncle patted the wooden board behind him with the head of his pipe. "Come on up. I'm just passing by. I won't charge you. Just don't think my car is wobbly."
"Thank you, Uncle." Lu Wanzheng patted Xiao Hua, who was standing there dumbfounded.
"Quickly move the suitcases to the car."
"Oh!" Xiaohua snapped out of her daze and quickly moved, working with Lu Wanzheng to carry the suitcase onto the plank pulled by the mule.
The middle-aged man just watched from inside the car, showing no intention of getting out to help.
The mule cart was very simple, consisting of two wheels, a small wooden plank, and a mule.
