"Is this...too much trouble?"
Song Ning looked at Feng Juan hesitantly, "Will this delay your business?"
"No! Just an interview, what could happen?"
Feng Juan made the decision with an attitude that refused to be refused.
"That's it! I'll talk to Lao Zhou later..."
"say what?"
Old Zhou turned around with a smile, "I heard it all!"
"Let's go together! This guy can repair cars and carry bags, so we're in luck!"
"Go to hell! I just said that and you actually ordered me to do it?!"
Feng Juan laughed and scolded him.
Several of them have been colleagues for more than ten years. Their temperaments and personalities are more compatible than those of a married couple, and they just talk about whatever they want.
"The car is fixed, let's go!"
Old Cai and He Yi also got into the car excitedly.
"It's too dark now. We can only wait until daybreak to find the nearest pipe-draining brigade to deal with your bodies. Don't blame me! Don't blame me!"
Old Cai clasped his hands together and muttered several times towards the scene of the accident before starting the car and driving forward.
"Next time I must not travel at night, may the Buddha bless me..."
Only after passing the accident scene by a long distance did Lao Cai finally let go of his worries.
"I guess the village is quite far from here. How about we find the nearest town and stay for the night?"
The scene just now was so shocking that his heart hasn't settled down yet!
No more driving at night...
Lao Zhou and Feng Juan had no objections, and Song Ning and He Yi had even less objections.
Everyone in the car agreed, and Lao Cai began to pay attention to the surrounding towns.
The roads here are all mountainous, and the people living around here are relatively scattered. After driving for another three or four hours, we still didn't see any larger towns.
Now not only Lao Cai felt something was wrong, but Lao Zhou and Feng Juan also became worried.
"Why does it feel like we're going in circles?"
Lao Zhou said uncertainly that none of them were familiar with the village here.
Their original plan was to go to the town first, and then find someone from the town government to take them to the village they wanted to go to.
But plans don't keep up with changes, and because they were traveling at night, they missed a large town.
The place we are in now is extremely desolate, and I am actually a little lost.
"No going in circles, just keep going!"
Song Ning suddenly interrupted, her voice very firm.
If she encountered a mysterious obstacle, she would definitely notice it in advance and would not let the car go around in circles.
Lao Cai looked at Lao Zhou hesitantly, and seeing that he didn't say anything, he suddenly stepped on the accelerator.
The car drove for more than an hour before it could vaguely see a light ahead.
Lao Cai's eyes lit up, he stepped on the accelerator, and rushed towards the lights.
As the saying goes: A horse will die if it runs high up the mountain!
Driving at night while looking at the lights is no different.
The car bumped along the rugged mountain road for more than an hour before we could see a village.
Song Ning's heart moved, "Of course it's here..."
Old Cai looked at the light not far ahead with a look of emotion, "It's not easy!"
"Finally, I can see other people. After all this time, I thought we were the only ones left in the world!"
Lao Zhou and Feng Juan also nodded, that’s right!
Except for Song Ning and the other two, they haven't met a single living person since they went there today!
"Hey... is that someone standing over there? It's so late, why are you still standing at the village entrance instead of going to bed?"
Old Zhou had sharp eyes and could see at a glance that there were many people standing at the village entrance ahead.
Not only were those people holding torches high in their hands, but there was also a huge bonfire lit in the center, and from a distance it looked like the flames were shooting up into the sky.
No wonder the flames rising into the sky could attract them even from such a long distance.
"It's quite strange... Why are you not sleeping so late at night?!"
Old Cai was a little uneasy at the sight of those people. "Should we go over there?"
"They've discovered us..."
Lao Zhou answered the question irrelevantly, "Drive over!"
Lao Zhou's voice was very quiet. Lao Cai stepped on the accelerator and the car rushed directly into the village.
squeak…
Lao Cai did a beautiful drift and the car stopped neatly in front of the crowd.
The glaring car lights made it difficult for people to open their eyes. People within the range of the lights subconsciously covered their eyes with their hands.
“I’m sorry! I’m sorry…”
Old Cai smiled embarrassedly and quickly turned off the headlights.
But when the car headlights are turned off...
Dozens of villagers in various outfits, expressionless and holding torches, saluted their cars...
I don’t know if it was because of their psychological factors, but once the car headlights were turned off, without the protection of lights, the village suddenly became eerie.
"This is weird! Why do I feel uneasy in my heart..."
After Lao Cai said this, Lao Zhou paused in opening the car door and felt a little nervous.
"I feel something is wrong too... Do you smell a fragrance..."
Feng Juan tightly grasped Song Ning's arm, her voice was filled with fear, but her face showed an expression of ecstasy.
“Smells so good…”
Feng Juan swallowed hard as she spoke.
They had been on the road since noon. Qi Wei had misjudged the distance to the destination and had not even had dinner, so they were starving.
“Indeed…it smells so good…”
Lao Cai and Lao Zhou were infected by Feng Juan and also showed an intoxicated expression. In the small space of the car, the sound of swallowing saliva could be clearly heard.
"What scent?"
He Yi raised his nose and sniffed around like a puppy, but he smelled nothing.
Woof woof…
The big black dog standing on the roof suddenly started barking, which scared He Yi.
"What's going on with it?"
Song Ning smiled meaningfully, "What could smell so good..."
Lao Cai and Lao Zhou couldn't resist the fragrance and quickly unbuckled their seat belts and got out of the car.
Feng Juan was no less enthusiastic. The unknown fragrance made her lose her fear of unknown things, and she got out of the car.
"What should we do? We can't get down?"
He Yi looked at Song Ning hesitantly, he didn't want to go down.
He didn't know why, but the hairs on his body stood up as soon as the car entered the village, and he felt even more uneasy...
This instinctive stress response made He Yi subconsciously want to follow his inner thoughts.
Song Ning smiled sweetly at him, then opened the car door and kicked him out.
"It's already here, what do you think?"
If I can't go down, where can I get some food?
Woof woof…
The big black dog was still barking towards the fire.
An old man with white hair and beard in the crowd raised his eyes and glanced at the big black dog. The big black dog immediately tucked its tail between its legs and whimpered.
He Yi shuddered. What kind of thing could make a dog ghost so scared?
Lao Zhou and Lao Cai could not hear the barking of the big black dog, and were attracted by an unknown fragrance, so they walked over unconsciously.
"What are you cooking? It smells so good..."
The unknown smell of meat eroded Feng Juan's nerves and paralyzed the fear in her heart.
Lao Zhou and Lao Cai also looked at each other with greedy expressions, "Um... do you sell the food you cook?"
“Any amount is fine…”
"What's that smell? Why can't I smell it?"
He Yi was so depressed by these three people that he couldn't smell anything...
