Chapter 177: Tricked by Him
Lu Yao was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "How long does it take to reach the checkpoint?"
"How long it takes to get to the checkpoint depends on how fast you walk, right? about four hours if it's fast, five or six hours if it's slow. But I have to warn you, not only do you have no street lights, but you don't even have a place to hide from the rain. Xiao Jiu replied slowly.
"How long does it take to walk the main road?" Lu Yao asked. He saw that the sky was getting dark, and it would soon be dark, and he had to take a mountain road to take a shortcut, and he remembered the frightening scene last night, and he still had palpitations, and he didn't want to take any more risks.
"About eight bells. Xiao Jiu said casually.
"Oh, I see, thank you!" Lu Yao finished speaking, and walked directly towards the traffic light intersection.
When Lu Yao staggered to Xiao Jiu's side, Xiao Jiu deliberately glanced at the backpack that was bulging under Lu Yao's raincoat, and he was always happy in his heart, and scolded secretly: Turtle grandson, no matter which road you take from here to the pine forest area, it is more than forty kilometers, and the turtle crawling speed like you now will not be able to walk to the pine forest area tomorrow morning. Hey, hey, you're tired of your turtle grandson!
The scene of Xiao Jiu talking to Lu Yao just now was seen by the mole standing on the platform across the road, and he was anxious in his heart. If Xiao Jiu was by his side at this time, he would definitely slap Xiao Jiu's ears hard.
He thought of Fang Fang's advice, thought of Lu Yao's skills, and let Xiao Jiu continue to track, no more than two traffic lights, which would arouse Lu Yao's vigilance, and today's tracking plan would be wasted. Not only will he not be rewarded by Fang Fang, but he will also be severely punished. He hated Xiao Jiu to death now, and his upper and lower teeth were rattling.
Mole and Xiao Wu kept watching Lu Yao walk to the intersection of the traffic light, and after turning right onto Binhai Road, they were still standing on the opposite platform and did not move.
Xiao Jiu, who was on the platform here, was a little confused when he saw it, and began to mutter: Why didn't they cross the traffic light as originally planned and continue to follow Lu Yao on the sidewalk across the Binhai Road?
He raised his hand to wipe the rain from his eyes and looked at the platform opposite, only to see the mole gesturing to him, telling him to stand still and wait for him to come.
The mole and Xiao Wu walked to the traffic light intersection, Xiao Wu crossed the zebra crossing and continued to walk to the sidewalk across the corniche road, while the mole walked towards the platform on Xiao Jiu's side.
The mole was about to walk to the platform, Xiao Jiu hurriedly caught up with him, and shouted with a smile: "Brother Mouse, that fool Lu Yao, I fooled you just now······
With two crisp slaps and Xiao Jiu's exclamations, the mole pointed at Xiao Jiu's nose and scolded viciously: "Stupid! You are looking for death! If we fail in today's tracking mission, you will wait to accept the severe punishment of the second senior sister! Did I tell you? Don't make direct contact with Lu Yao? Ah? What you said to me was a fart? Bastard!" After he finished scolding, he raised his hand and slapped Xiao Jiu's already red and swollen face twice.
"I'm sorry Brother Mouse! Lu Yao asked me for directions. Xiao Jiu raised his hands to cover his bloody mouth, and said indistinctly.
"You won't pretend to be dumb? Can't you just show him a way? Did you get into the water in the head or was kicked by a donkey? Get back in the car and clean you up later! Only a dead ghost fox would teach you such a brainless bastard!" After the mole finished scolding, he glared at Xiao Jiu viciously before turning around and following Lu Yao.
Two hours later, Lu Yao walked under an unfinished overpass according to Xiao Jiu's instructions, and saw a small hill in front of him, with a construction site that had stopped work on the left and right, but he couldn't see the shed, and he walked to the end of a dead-end road. There wasn't even a single street lamp on the entire construction site, and it was dark. He understands now that he was tricked by Xiao Jiu.
He looked at the overpass, which had been completely suspended, and saw a simple shack under the pier not far from him, which should have housed the workers guarding the construction site.
Lu Yao, who was already exhausted and almost collapsed, really couldn't walk. After a moment's hesitation, he gritted his teeth and stepped on the muddy dirt road, sliding three steps to the shack under the pier. He was going to ask the workers who lived inside if they could let him rest for a while, and begged for a drink by the way.
When he came to the shack, he saw that the door was not closed, and that it was dark and rumbling inside, and that he could not see anything. He leaned into it and called out weakly, "Is there anyone, master?"
No one responded for a long time, and he shouted a few more times, but there was still no response. He lifted his hand and pulled off the raincoat and hat, and cautiously walked inside.
When he got used to the darkness, he saw that there was a wooden plank placed inside against the bridge pier, which was supposed to be a resting place for the workers watching the construction site. He looked around again, and it was empty, not even a single overalls. He thought it might be the rainy season arrived, the shutdown was long, and the workers guarding the site were withdrawn.
He was happy to think of this, and he finally had a place to stay tonight. He stepped in front of the plank in two steps, reached out and pressed it against the plank hard, and it felt firm. He immediately began to unbutton his raincoat and decided to sleep here until dawn before continuing to look for a way out.
When he unbuttoned the two buttons, he buttoned them all up again. On a rainy night, the weather was still a little cool. The moment he unbuttoned it, he couldn't help but shudder. He thought of the two unopened suits in his backpack, the dirty clothes he had changed out of last night that were soaked with mud and his own blood.
It's not appropriate to change into a suit and lie on this plank to sleep, and besides, a suit doesn't keep you warm. He also remembered that he still had all the documents in his backpack, and for safety, he decided to sleep on his side on the board with his backpack on his back and a raincoat.
Although the wound on his body was painful when it first touched the plank, extreme sleepiness and chill quickly overcame the pain, and in a daze, he fell asleep.
At this time, on the side of the road outside the bridge pier, two black shadows were whispering: "Xiao Wu, you are staring at Lu Yao here, I will go to the intersection outside to find a phone booth and call the second senior sister." ”
"Okay, Lu Yao shouldn't come out, right?" Xiao Wu asked stumblingly. He was wearing less clothes when he went out at noon today, and now he was standing in the rain, and there was a night breeze blowing from time to time, and he felt a little cold.
"I see that he couldn't walk a little just now, so he shouldn't come out. You must be vigilant, if an outsider approaches the shack, you must drive it away immediately, and you will say that you are here to see the construction site. I must be watching, I'll be back as soon as I call. After the mole finished speaking, he immediately turned and walked briskly towards the intersection outside.
