Chapter 35: The Unspoken Rule
What does this mean?
Ning Hao was suddenly anxious, was he going to get out of the car and part ways? He just thought about it crookedly, so he didn't need to make such a big reaction, right?
Immediately stopped the car, and when Ning Hao just opened his mouth to explain, he saw Tang Xiaoxiao tear a page from her notebook, and then took out a marker pen and wrote a few words on the paper.
Come on! people on the road.
After writing it, he stuffed the piece of paper and a can of red bull into Ning Hao's hand.
"Go, press the paper under Red Bull and put it on the milestone in front of you. ”
What's going on here?
Although he was puzzled, Ning Hao didn't dare to touch Tang Xiaoxiao's moldy head at this time, so he got out of the car and put the Red Bull pressed paper on the milestone.
"Let's drive!"
After Ning Hao returned, Tang Xiaoxiao first asked him to continue his departure, and then explained: "When you meet hikers, you throw them a bottle of water, which means that you encourage them.
Perhaps, the moment you throw out the water, it is the moment when they give up, and the encouragement from a bottle of water is likely to bring them back together, so why not do such a good deed. ”
Hearing this, Ning Hao nodded understandingly.
The journey continues, passing through the Gaoer Temple Tunnel, passing the Yajiang River on the banks of the Yalong River, and then the altitude soars all the way to start over the mountains, all the roads are carved out in the mountains, which can be described as a mountain high road risk.
And the driver of the car was also changed from Ning Hao to Tang Xiaoxiao, because of the increase in altitude, Ning Hao had a little altitude sickness, in this case, it was too dangerous to drive in such a dangerous place.
What Ning Hao didn't expect was that Tang Xiaoxiao was still an old driver, and the car drove very skillfully and smoothly.
Subsequently, after crossing the two high mountains of more than 4,000 meters above sea level, they finally arrived at Litang at 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
Litang is known as the world's highest city because it is located at an altitude of more than 4,000 meters above sea level.
After a brief rest and a bite to eat, when they were ready to get in the car and set off again, two young men, a man and a woman, with large travel bags on their backs, walked towards them.
After some conversation, I learned that the other party was walking the Sichuan-Tibet line bare, and now the destination is the same as Ning Hao and them, so I came here to ask if I could take them on a ride.
After a brief discussion between Ning Hao and Tang Xiaoxiao, they nodded happily in agreement, and in the other party's repeated thanks, the four of them got in the car and began to rush to their common destination, Daocheng.
Daocheng is not on the 318 line, you need to turn south and climb two mountains with an altitude of more than 4,000 meters to reach Daocheng.
Because of the traffic jam on the road, it took a lot of effort, and by the time their car arrived in Daocheng, it was already more than 6 o'clock in the afternoon.
The pair of men and women thanked them and waved goodbye to Ning Hao and Tang Xiaoxiao, looking at their departing backs, Ning Hao couldn't help but sigh: "I really envy them! ”
"Holding each other's hands, are you sure they're a couple?"
Tang Xiaoxiao turned his head to look at him with a smile.
"Isn't it?"
Ning Hao frowned slightly and asked incomprehensibly.
Because Tang Xiaoxiao was driving all the way from Litang to Daocheng, Ning Hao was communicating with them most of the time.
Along the way, the two looked familiar and behaved very intimately, so Ning Hao naturally classified each other's relationship as a couple.
But I didn't expect that Tang Xiaoxiao suddenly came to such a sentence again, which really made Ning Hao feel that the various routines on the Sichuan-Tibet line were so deep!
"I'll explain to you when I get to the room, let's move my luggage now!"
Tang Xiaoxiao didn't answer immediately, deliberately hung Ning Hao's appetite, and turned around and walked directly towards the hotel.
Ning Hao could only force the luggage of the two people to get off the car, and hurriedly followed with the luggage.
When he arrived at the room, Tang Xiaoxiao went to the bathroom to wash his face before he spoke: "On the Sichuan-Tibet line, the real traveler is rarely alone, even if he sets off alone, he will form a team with other people on the way.
First, if there is any accident, you can also have a response, and second, someone to accompany you will not make the journey lonely and boring.
But when a lot of people get together, it becomes difficult to get a ride, because there is no car that can take them all at once, and if you do encounter a driver who is willing to take a ride, there will be disagreements over who gets on the bus first.
Therefore, in this large team, there will be many small groups, the number is preferably two people, and the gender is preferably one male and one female.
Because of the words of two men, the general driver does not dare to stop, for fear that they have bad intentions, and if there are two women, they will be afraid of encountering bad people when hitchhiking, and the two weak women are powerless to compete.
As for how to form a small group, there are many ways, such as lottery, rock-paper-scissors, voluntary team-ups, etc. ”
Tang Xiaoxiao's words were very clear, that is, to tell Ning Hao that the couple he envied was very likely to have just been drawn together by lottery this morning, and the seemingly couple relationship was just for the convenience of the ride.
"It's just a ride, is it that complicated?"
Ning Hao still said with some disbelief: "According to what you say, if the girl and a strange man temporarily form a team to take a ride together, wouldn't it be even more dangerous if the man had lust at night." ”
After asking, Ning Hao immediately regretted it, isn't this the kind of relationship between him and Tang Xiaoxiao now, the difference is only that they are driving by themselves instead of hitchhiking.
If this makes Tang Xiaoxiao think that he is hinting at something, then it is asking for trouble!
"You're worried about that. ”
Fortunately, Tang Xiaoxiao didn't care, shook his head and said: "Their team usually sets up a WeChat group in advance, everyone will report their situation in the group every once in a while, and they will also make an appointment with a destination in advance before each departure, and if it goes well, they will get together at the next location."
Of course, this so-called team is also very loose, because everyone's travel plans cannot be the same, and almost every day there will be people leaving and people will join.
They get together to form the so-called team, just to meet some friends from all over the world, to make the trip smoother and that's it. ”
"I didn't expect there to be so many doorways here!"
Ning Hao had a wry smile on his face.
In the past, in Ning Hao's impression, travel was to hurry, visit scenic spots, and take pictures, as for self-driving, hiking, hitchhiking, and other things, it was all the same, but in different ways.
But I didn't expect that it was just a disciple on the Sichuan-Tibet line, and there were so many doorways in it.
Sure enough, if you don't get started, you don't know how deep the doorway is!
