At about 6 o'clock the next morning, Lin Jiaming was woken up by a phone call, and Mr. Pei called.

"Xiaolin, get up! Hurry up and clean up! Let's leave at seven o'clock. ”

"Okay!" Lin Jiaming dragged his tired body to the bathroom, looked at himself sleepily in the mirror, and at that moment he really had the urge to go back to bed and continue to lie down. Although I don't usually get up late, I get up at about seven o'clock, but I don't stay up that late.

After washing and tidying up his clothes, Lin Jiaming took the car key room card, and went out with his backpack. At this point in the season, most people in L City are still in the warm room, kicking the quilt and talking in their dreams. Out of the hotel gate, Lin Jiaming only felt a chill hit, penetrating the thick winter coat and reaching the skin, as if every hair on his body stood up. Wrapped up tightly, Lin Jiaming continued to walk towards the parking lot.

Outside the hotel, there is a road, and under the dim street lamp, a single pedestrian occasionally walks by, wrapped in a thick coat, and carries a few dead leaves from the sidewalk. On the four-lane asphalt road, there was only a faint red in the distance, which was the taillight of a car that passed not long ago. The shops near the hotel were also dark, with only a ramen restaurant and a 24-hour convenience store lit up. Lin Jiaming walked into the convenience store and bought a few bottles of water, two buckets of instant noodles and a few ham sausages. Judging from the situation of going out last night, it is difficult for these villages on the outskirts of L City to eat, so they have to prepare their own. I originally wanted to go to the ramen restaurant to eat a bowl of hot ramen noodles to drive away the cold in the northwest, but Mr. Pei hadn't come out yet, Lin Jiaming felt that he should wait for Mr. Pei together, so he returned to the parking lot with the dry food bought at the convenience store, and sat in the car waiting for Mr. Pei.

When it was almost seven o'clock, Mr. Pei appeared in Lin Jiaming's sight with a small satchel. As soon as Mr. Pei got in the car, he asked Lin Jiaming if he had brought all the equipment he wanted to bring. After receiving Lin Jiaming's affirmative answer, Mr. Pei nodded with satisfaction, leaned back on the seat, and signaled that Lin Jiaming could go. Lin Jiaming wanted to ask Mr. Pei if he wanted to eat something first, but Mr. Pei's slight snoring sounded, so he didn't say anything more and started the car.

Lin Jiaming drove the car and ran all the way, the sparse vehicles on the road and the toss last night inevitably hit him with sleepiness and yawned. Looking at the dawn of darkness gradually tearing apart from the sky, Lin Jiaming's mind suddenly flashed Lu Haowan, who was far away in X City. At this point, she should still be asleep.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed on the road, and Lin Jiaming hurriedly stepped on the brakes. Because the speed of the car was too fast, Lin Jiaming and Mr. Pei still leaned forward sharply under the impact of inertia. Fortunately, the two fastened their seatbelts and were not injured. Mr. Bei was awakened by the sudden sound of brakes, straightened up, straightened his clothes, and looked at Lin Jiaming.

"Something ran in front of the car just now!" Lin Jiaming explained.

"Get out of the car and take a look!"

Lin Jiaming unbuckled his seat belt, and after making sure that there was no car coming from behind, he got out of the car. I looked around, didn't see anything, and was about to get in the car and leave, when I heard a cat meow. Following the sound, I saw a stray cat in the grass on the side of the road. Through the dim street lamp, Lin Jiaming saw the appearance of the cat clearly.

The cat is not big and looks like it is more than 5 months old. I don't know what sticks the hair on my ears, it's black, and the hair on my body is also divided into several pieces, and the pieces are stuck together, making it look even thinner. Lin Jiaming couldn't help but sigh in his heart the tenacity of life, such a thin stray cat actually survived the severe cold of the north in winter.

No other abnormalities were found, and Lin Jiaming turned around and prepared to get into the car. At this time, the cat limped after him, meowing. Lin Jiaming found out that it had an injury to one of its front feet and kept carrying it. Lin Jiaming wanted to drive it away, after all, he was working now, and he couldn't take it with him. If it was in City X, he might have taken it in, but this is in City L.

After trying a few times, the cat just turned around and walked two steps back and back, meowing all the time. seems to be saying that Lin Jiaming hit himself, so he should be responsible for himself.

"You're still lying to me, aren't you?" Lin Jiaming smiled bitterly.

"Meow~"

"Go back to where you want. I can't take you with me. Lin Jiaming stomped his feet again.

"Meow~" The cat not only ran away, but limped two steps towards Lin Jiaming.

"I shouldn't have hit you! I have a dash cam, I'm not afraid of you! Let's go!" Lin Jiaming didn't give up.

"Meow~"

"Rely on ~ ......" Lin Jiaming felt for the first time that in the face of a cat, he had no human dignity.

Lin Jiaming looked back at Mr. Bei in the co-pilot, and didn't know when he fell asleep against the seat again. Thinking that it was unsafe to spend all the time with a stray cat on the road, Mr. Pei was asleep again now, and Lin Jiaming had an idea in his heart.

"Now, I'll put you in the car first, don't scream. When we get to the countryside in a while, I'll quietly open the door for you, and you can get out of the car and find a good family by yourself, okay?"

"Meow~"

"Forget it, whatever you say, let's do it first!" Lin Jiaming gently opened the back door of the car, the cat was also spiritual, although it was a little difficult, but he still jumped into the car, lying on the foot mat, and really stopped calling.

After closing the car door, Lin Jiaming sat in the cab and started the car. At this moment, he didn't know what kind of miracle this cat would bring to his life.

When the car drove to the suburbs, the long dark night dispersed, and what appeared in Lin Jiaming's eyes was the chaotic northwest scenery, as if he was looking through the light blue glass. Lin Jiaming parked the car at the entrance of the village, woke up Mr. Bei, and went to the trunk to pick up the equipment. When passing by the back door of the car, Lin Jiaming looked inside the car, and the cat obediently lay on the mat and fell asleep peacefully.

"Xiaolin, let's start here!" Mr. Pei stood under the dead tree at the entrance of the village and shouted at Lin Jiaming, who was carrying equipment behind the car.

Lin Jiaming poked out half of his head from behind the butt of the car, answered yes, closed the trunk, and walked to the position where Mr. Pei was just standing. Putting down the equipment, Lin Jiaming looked around. The terrain at the entrance of this village is not very high, there are loess slopes on both sides, and a cement hardened road extends to the village, so you can't see the whole picture of the village, and it is not very suitable for taking pictures of the whole village. However, there is a hill a few miles away, the terrain is higher, there is no partition around, and the horizon is relatively open. And Lin Jiaming also saw it just now, the cement road leads to that vicinity, and it is very convenient to drive there. Lin Jiaming mentioned his idea to Mr. Pei, but was rejected by Mr. Pei again. Mr. Pei felt that Lin Jiaming was a newcomer, although when we talked before, I felt that he had some ability, but he was not mature enough to recognize his ideas. Lin Jiaming had to set up his camera and other equipment and start shooting.

In the process of Lin Jiaming's collection, this northwest village also slowly woke up from the cold night, and in the chimneys of people's houses one after another, green smoke began to rise outward, and occasionally a few rooster crows caused a burst of dog barking, and after a period of noise, it returned to tranquility, only the green smoke ran straight to the gray blue sky.
