Chapter 17: The Five Rivers
Gu Yu's bag was waterproof, but even so, he still made several layers of protection to prevent the material from getting wet. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Coming out of the market, I went all the way to the passenger station and stepped on the five o'clock bus. The seats were in the last row, and there were still two empty seats left to fill up, and he leaned against the window, looking at Sheng Tiancheng at dusk, like a giant elephant full of fatigue.
The car started slowly, and he blinked suddenly, and the glass window was stained with a few drops of water. Just as he was leaving, the heavy rain that had been held for a day finally arrived.
The weather forecast did not flicker, and the bus drove all the way away from the city, only to hear the thunder and the rain increase. As soon as I got on the highway, the outside was already filled with mist and blurred.
"Whoa!"
"Crackling!"
Gu Yu couldn't help but be a little worried when he listened to the rain, and the other passengers also stopped talking, leaving only a few whispers.
"Ding Dong!"
At this moment, the mobile phone rang, but it was a greeting from Jiang Xiaozhai: "Are you in the car?"
"Just left Sheng Tian, are you off work?"
"I was getting ready to go downstairs. ”
"It's not good to wait for the train at this time, the subway can be more convenient. ”
"It's still early, I'll go to the park first. ”
"Where are you going?" he wondered.
"Of course I'm going to pick flowers, Auntie can't wait for me. ”
Belch!
Gu Yu immediately choked, not knowing what to reply. And immediately after, another one came over there: "Don't you think it's very stylish for me to hold an umbrella and pick a branch of osmanthus in the rain?"
All right......
He threw himself to the ground and quickly knocked out three big words: "Sister, steady!"
Then there was no movement, and about ten minutes later, the girl sent a photograph of a watery, pale yellow and pale white laurel.
The hand holding the flower branch has slender lines, well-proportioned flesh and bones, beautiful and powerful.
He suppressed a trace of surprise, a trace of yearning, a trace of throbbing, and joked: "It's beautiful, but it will teach bad little pot friends." ”
"Then I'll donate a sapling to the park, even if I repent. ”
"Donate two, count me in one. ”
"Don't do it, I carry my own pot. Hey, don't you think what you just said ......"
"Special routine!"
"Special routine!"
Gu Yu pursed his lips and pressed send, and these three words appeared on the screen at the same time. Immediately, there was a big yellow smiling face from there.
The two chatted like this, and Xiao Zhai replied intermittently, sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly.
He occasionally glanced outside, barely observing the road. At a normal pace, it would take four hours to get to Baicheng, but on rainy days, you have to slow down, and two hours are not yet halfway there.
Before I knew it, the bus got off the highway and began to take a country road, passing between some villages and towns. After another ten minutes, the conductor shouted: "Wudaohe has arrived, have you gotten off the train?"
"Yes!"
An old man got up with his pocket, and he actually saw that it was the beekeeper in the medicinal herb market.
Wudaohe is a town, which belongs to the jurisdiction of another county, which is closer to Baicheng, about seventy or eighty kilometers. When he got down, the car continued on its way, and soon entered a mountainous area.
It was already dark, and the darkness seemed to swallow everything, except for the faint light of the headlights.
Xiao Zhai had something to do, so Gu Yu leaned back in the chair, a little drowsy. In a daze, I heard a "crunch" and the car stopped.
"What's going on?"
"Maybe it's a traffic jam. ”
"Ouch, it's better not to be in a car accident. ”
In the discussion of the passengers, the driver went out and slipped around, ran back and scolded: "The road is closed in front of the paralysis, I don't know what the accident is." ”
Fearing something, everyone immediately complained bitterly.
But it was useless to call, everyone waited for a few minutes, and suddenly someone knocked on the door and got into the car, but it was a policeman wearing a raincoat. He pressed his hand and said, "Be quiet, there is a landslide ahead, and the road is blocked." This section of the road is now dangerous, and in order to avoid casualties caused by the secondary landslide, all vehicles are now returning. ”
Well, it exploded in a word.
"It's almost there, let's go back again!"
"That's it, it's midnight to go back to Shengtian, where are you going to stay?"
"Damn, I've got too many ideas today!"
The policeman was quite qualified, and he did not move at all, and persuaded: "I understand everyone's feelings, but they are all for personal safety, and it is better for us to toss and take a trip than to be injured and die, right? Besides, now that the road is blocked, no one can pass." ”
In fact, everyone knows it, but they can't accept it for a while. After nagging for a long time, the police turned to the next one. The driver couldn't help it, so he slammed his jacket on the ground: "Okay, don't make noise! Do you still want to live in the mountains?"
As soon as the people spoke, the car stopped a little.
After a while, the police began to direct the traffic and command a U-turn. The bus was followed by an SUV, and even the exhaust was full of resentment.
Gu Yu was also depressed, wondering where to deal with it for a night. Shengtian's consumption is too high, even if it is a small hotel, it costs 180 yuan, why don't you go to an Internet café all night?
Just as he was thinking wildly, he suddenly saw a crowd in front of him, and the lights were faint. He paused for a moment and asked, "Master, is there a hotel in Wudaohe?"
"Yes, I've stayed before. The driver said firmly.
"Stop the car in front of that. ”
"You're not going back to Shengtian?"
"It's too far away, I can make up for the night. ”
"That's fine, it's better to get to Baicheng from anywhere. ”
The driver was quite kind, gave a few words, and parked the car on the side of the road. Gu Yu jumped down, and as soon as the umbrella was opened, he heard a crackling sound.
Boy!
With a bag in his arms and an umbrella in one hand, he walked towards the town with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Wudaohe is a small place, with two streets, one horizontal and one vertical, most of the shops are closed, and only a few restaurants are still lit.
The driver was not ambiguous, and sure enough, he found a hotel, pushed the door in, and looked up to the counter, with a wooden bed behind it. A middle-aged woman is crooked on the bed, bored watching TV.
"Is there a room?"
"Myself?" the woman glanced at him.
"Hmm. ”
"There are 40 people, there are 60 people, which one do you live?"
"Can I take a look?"
“……”
The woman had a blunt attitude, picked up the key and went upstairs. Gu Yu pursed his lips and followed him to a room upstairs. The room was very small, with two board beds, an old broken TV, and no bathroom.
"This 40, the toilet is in the hallway, 60 is still looking?" the woman asked.
He touched the futon, which was not damp, and said, "No need, just this one." ”
"100 yuan deposit, come down and register. ”
"Oh. ”
When everything was done, Gu Yu went back to the house and locked the door, and checked the medicinal materials first, and it was still dry.
He fell on the bed, tuning the TV with no match, and wanted to tell Xiao Zhai about his experience of torture tonight, but thinking about it, it seems that he hasn't been close to this extent.
The reason why he came to live in Wudaohe was that he didn't want to go back and forth, and secondly, he heard about it during the day, which made him curious.
