Stuck in the snow pit is a Land Cruiser, a famous Nissan car.

The rules of driving in Iceland are that when you see a car in distress passing by, you must provide assistance, without hesitation or compensation.

The reason is very simple, Iceland is too big, there are too few people, there are few cars, there are too many wilderness on the island, and you may need help when you break down in the wilderness, so there is this rule.

Today, Chen Song and the others can't pretend not to see and leave, the weather is cold, and they may not see the car on the road for several hours, if they don't help, I'm afraid that the people in the car will spend the night in the snow.

The big tractor stopped, and Goble got out of the car with a gloomy face.

The young men and women who had been waving happily on the side of the road stopped talking, and they saw the four people tied to the back of the tractor, and they also saw the burly, sturdy, dark-faced Goble.

Goble got out of the car and asked in a rough voice, "Why did you drive the car off the road?"

The two young men squeaked and couldn't say two complete sentences for a while, so Goble became impatient, and his expression became more and more distorted: "What's the matter with you? Foreign tourists, don't understand Icelandic?"

The young man laughed and said, "No, no, we can understand, it's just that the road is in too bad condition, we have been very careful, and then we still drove off the road." ”

Chen Song understands them, there are drainage canals on both sides of Highway 1, and the university has filled in the ditches, so that it is easy for drivers to drive down if they get distracted.

It's not bad that this Rand Cruiser just got the front wheel stuck in the gutter, and if the young man driving the car reacted slower, the whole car should go down, which might roll over.

So he got out of the car and said, "You have to be careful when driving after the snow, I mean you'd better keep an eye on the wheel prints, and don't drive wherever it's flat, that's not going to work." ”

The young men and women saw that he had a kind face, and hurried to his side and nodded repeatedly.

It's as simple as tying the safety rope to the back of the car and dragging it out.

The young men thanked them again and again, and Chen Song asked them, "Where are you going?"

"Go to Vic, my uncle is in Vic, let's go to him. The girl preemptively said.

Chen Song looked at the expensive Land Cruiser and then at the fashionably dressed two and asked, "Defection?"

The girl shrugged helplessly and said: "Yes, we are from Selfoss, you don't know the current situation in Selfoss, because the road to Reykjavik has not been opened, and the city has no supplies, you don't know how expensive the food is now!"

Chen Song asked in surprise: "I heard you right, right? The road between Selfossus and Reykjavik has not been opened? How is this possible?"

"I thought it was incredible, but it's true. The young man's face was full of dissatisfaction, "We taxpayers pay so many taxes every year, and we don't know what those bastards in the parliament are doing, and we can't even do the minimum transportation security." ”

Chen Song said: "Wait, this shouldn't be, I read the news a few days ago and said that the road has been opened." ”

"Yes, it took a long time to get through, and then it was blocked by the police, because the road conditions were too bad, there were always car accidents, and there were more than 20 car accidents in half a day, and a total of more than 200 cars were affected, all of which were serial large car accidents. ”

Hearing this, Chen Song and Goble glanced at each other, and the two of them were overjoyed.

This means that it is very likely that the Shoko guy did not leave Selfoss, and he did not escape.

The couple continued to complain: "You don't know what has become of the price of goods in Selfoss, a pound of mutton costs 14,000 krons, can you imagine? The price of vegetables and fruits is even more terrifying, a kilogram of mango costs more than 20,000 kroner......

This price is really unacceptable, and a kilogram of mangoes has to be sold for more than 1,000 yuan.

Since the road between Selfoss and Reykjavík was still closed, there was no need for the six people who were rubbing the car to go to Selfoss.

Chen Song informed the six people of the news, and the six of them were immediately at a loss.

"What should I do?" they looked at each other.

Some people are willing to go and see what is going on, and they think that the police are only blocking civilian cars, maybe commercial trucks can still pass, so they can contact the trucks to follow them to Reykjavík.

Others don't want to take the risk because it would be a waste of time to not be able to get to Reykjavík.

Six people decide exactly three against three, and it just so happens that the Land Cruiser is an eight-seater large SUV, and the three people who want to return can rub another car back to town.

The remaining three people take turns to enter the cab, and the outside one can sit on the rear plate rack of the car, and the space on the sub-plate frame can be spacious.

The big tractor roared down the road and continued its march towards Selfoss.

The impact of the snowstorm on Iceland is really huge, and the roads that are not well protected are dangerous, and in this respect Iceland does not look like a developed country.

In fact, it is understandable that Iceland has a small population and a small working population, and it is impossible to arrange road guards at intervals on the highway like China.

The road conditions were not good, the car drove slowly, and then they met a car that got into a ditch and went to drag it up again, which delayed it even more.

It was just dawn and it was already dark when they reached Selfoss.

The price of food in Selfoss is very high, but the price of accommodation is cheap, because there are few outsiders coming in at this time, so many hotels are empty.

Goble was in a hurry, he didn't bother to eat or settle down, he had to go to Shawco's house to find someone first.

Chen Song said: "You don't have to worry, that bastard can't honestly wait at home for us to come to him to trouble him after cheating us out of money, do you have friends who know each other? Let's stay tonight and go to your friends tomorrow." ”

Goble said unhappily, "If I can't find him today, then I won't be able to sleep." ”

Chen Song said: "If you can't sleep, it means that you are not sleepy." ”

The hotel room was cheap, so he went to the best five-star hotel in the town, and also opened a room for the three of them.

Anyway, he opened the presidential suite, with a total of three rooms, and he and Goble alone couldn't live there.

The Presidential Suite was supposed to serve breakfast and dinner, but now that Selfoss was running out of supplies, the hotel canceled the meals

The three of them didn't know the price situation in Selfoss, and the owner of the coffee shop, Pixon, smiled: "This is a five-star hotel? ”

They went out and walked around the streets, and there weren't many restaurants still open, and many of them were closed.

After some searching, they finally found a Brazilian restaurant, and Goble happily said, "Very good, have Brazilian barbecue tonight." ”

Pixon quipped, "Eat less, man, I don't want to go broke." ”

There were not many people in the restaurant, and after they sat down, a waiter greeted them very politely.

Pixon opened the menu to order, then looked at the numbers on it and was confused: "Wait, waiter, why do you add a zero to the price of your menu?

The waiter smiled and said, "No, sir, that's what you see, the price of all the dishes has increased tenfold." ”

One of the townspeople who was traveling with him looked at the price of the menu and then at the overwhelmed Goble and said, "Mr. Pixon, you may be going bankrupt." ”
