Chen Xuewu saw Juanzi's impatient look, couldn't help but stroke her hair, and sneered: "What are you anxious about?" We won't be able to get out of here overnight. Besides, it is impossible for the trapped people to be so hungry that they can't hold on. After all, there are only a small number of people who have such a phenomenon as pregnant women. Let's wait and see. ”

Juanzi nodded, and said convincingly: "Well, you are still thoughtful." If we run out of food all at once, we'll have to starve with it from now on. ”

Chen Xuewu smiled: "If someone is in urgent need of food, they will definitely beg for food like the pregnant woman's husband just now." ”

Juanzi smiled: "Then let's go back to the car and have a 'wait for the rabbit', right?" ”

Chen Xuewu patted her on the shoulder: "You go back to the car first." I'm looking around. ”

"Okay, you can just stay out there a little longer."

Chen Xuewu was puzzled: "Why? ”

Juan Ziqiao's face flushed: "People have been holding back for a long time, and now there is no place outside that can solve the problem." Then I had to go back to the car and solve it. ”

Chen Xuewu smiled kindly: "Then you can stay in the car, and if you are hungry, eat something." ”

"Well, then you should come back early for dinner."

After Chen Xuewu witnessed Juanzi stumbling back to his new car, he strode forward with confidence. It's the same route he took last night. But the difference is that the snow under your feet is more than twice as deep as last night. However, the bright sunlight at this time allowed him to observe the situation around him more thoroughly.

At this time, he could see the scene on both sides of the road, but he did not find any villages in the vast snowfield, only some scattered jungles. His heart suddenly became nervous, if he couldn't find anyone nearby, I'm afraid it would be a luxury to eat high-priced instant noodles.

He struggled through knee-deep snow and navigated each trapped car. He also found a minibus among them. And there were dozens of passengers in the car. They were full of men, women and children, as well as the cries of babies and young children. His heart tightened, this was probably a very bad situation. Because if there are too many people stranded, the demand for food is great. However, he thought about it again, most of these passengers were people who were going home for the Spring Festival, and they must have carried some water and food with them. At least for a while.

He had just taken a few steps forward when he suddenly noticed that there was steaming heat next to the convoy in front of him, and some people were surrounded by him.

His heart moved, and he immediately quickened his pace and stepped over.

When he walked over to take a look, he was surprised to find that on the side of a large truck with a trailer, two men had actually set up a stove on the ground one meter square of snow to boil water for cooking. The onlookers next to him were all drivers of the front and rear cars. Each of them had a look of envy on their faces.

Chen Xuewu did the same, and found that the source of their fire was a small liquefied gas tank, and there were many cooking utensils, including pots and pans. At this time, they were boiling water to boil somen noodles.

Chen Xuewu couldn't help but exclaim: "The two of you are really taking precautions, and you are actually ready to be trapped for a long time, which is amazing!" ”

One of the bearded men looked up and smiled proudly: "We have been running long distances for a long time, and we have experienced any road section and what kind of traffic jam method." So, we have the experience and the preparation to deal with the trapped situation. ”

Chen Xuewu looked at the greedy looks of the onlookers around him, and couldn't help but persuade: "Since you have brought the cooking guys, then you must have brought a lot of food, right?" Can you help our peers? ”

Even Mao Hu didn't wait for an answer, and his companion shrugged his shoulders: "I'm sorry, we don't have much food with us, we can only live for a few days." Looking at this posture now, it will be blocked for at least many days. By then, I'm afraid we'll run out of ammunition before we can get into traffic. ”

Chen Xuewu frowned: "However, there are many people at our scene who have not prepared any food at all, including the elderly, women and children. In such a harsh environment, their bodies are prone to problems. Even if you are a little hungry for your belly, you should help those who are weak. ”

A driver who was watching next to him immediately chimed in: "Yes." I drove my daughter-in-law and son back to my hometown for the Chinese New Year, and I didn't plan to eat in the car, so I didn't bring any food at all. Now we haven't eaten for more than a day, and the child is crying with hunger. Can you two sell me a bowl of noodles? It doesn't matter how much money it is. ”

The man who was scooping noodles gave the driver a blank look: "Do you think I'm the one who makes money?" I'm afraid it's not enough for us to stick to it, and we won't sell it even if you pay a lot of money. ”

The driver looked pitiful: "Big brother, we are all peers, just take pity on my child." He's only six years old. ”

Lian Mao's beard frowned slightly, took the bowl full of noodles handed over by the companion who fished for noodles, thought about it, and handed it to the onlooker driver: "You can take it to the child to eat." I can't be bitter at any time, I'd rather be hungry. ”

"Thank you, thank you..." The driver gratefully took the steaming bowl of noodles and turned and ran in the direction of his car.

Seeing this, the companion who fished for noodles couldn't help but say angrily: "Old Xue, why are you so troubled? ”

Lian Maobeard smiled indifferently: "It's okay for us adults to be hungry, but we can't let the children starve together." Besides, if such a young child is trapped in such an environment for a long time and cannot eat in time, it is easy for the body to have problems. ”

The companion was obviously more selfish than the bearded man, snorted through his nostrils, and kicked his bowl of noodles into the cab of their big truck to eat.

At this time, the other onlookers stared at the noodle soup in the aluminum pot again: "Big brother, you are good, can you give us a bite of those noodle soups?" ”

Lian Maobeard hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded generously: "You guys come to Sheng." ”

Some drivers had water glasses in their hands and immediately rushed over to grab the noodle soup.

Seeing it in his eyes, Chen Xuewu couldn't help frowning, quietly walked to Lian Mao's beard, and lowered his voice to suggest: "At present, hot water is extremely important for people trapped in such an environment. Since you have a gas tank and an aluminum pot, let's boil some hot water for everyone, right? ”

Lian Mao's beard gave him a white look: "Which car are you the driver?" ”

Chen Xuewu pointed to the back of the convoy: "My car is in the back." ”

"Oh, do you really need hot water?"

Chen Xuewu shook his head: "I don't care. I still have a lot of drinks in my car. But there are a lot of elderly people and children here, especially with a bus stuck behind your car. There are many passengers who are old and young, and they need to drink hot water. ”

Chen Xuewu saw that he gave his breakfast to others, and felt that he was very righteous, so he persuaded him bitterly.

Unexpectedly, Lian Maobeard pointed to the small liquefied gas tank with his hand: "Brother, please go and weigh it." ”

Chen Xuewu walked over as he said, took it in his hand and shook it, and his heart couldn't help sinking, it turned out that there was not much stock in it. If it is used to melt snow and boil water, I am afraid that it will not be able to boil a few pots.

Chen Xuewu didn't dare to force others, so he had to nod apologetically: "I'm sorry." ”

Lian Maobeard smiled bitterly: "At present, we are all trapped here by heavy snow, and we can understand each other's difficulties. But at present, it is very difficult to protect yourself, can you still take care of others? ”

Chen Xuewu thought for a moment, and then said: "But I think that since everyone is sympathetic to each other, we should share weal and woe, and take out a piece of dry food to divide the spirit of eight halves." ”

"Hahaha..." laughed at the hairy beard, "Please take a good look at the front and back, this long dragon is at least a few kilometers long, how many cars and people are in it?" Even if you divide a piece of dry food into eighteen and a half, I'm afraid it won't help. ”

Chen Xuewu was silent, knowing that even Mao's words were not unreasonable. He also knew in his heart that the food reserves in his car might not be enough to share a meal with some of his neighboring vehicles. What's more, it's not clear how long you're going to be stuck here.

He had no intention of going any further, so he turned and walked back—

When he passed the minibus again, he heard a commotion inside, so he stopped and listened for a while.

It turned out that there were a few grumpy passengers inside who shouted at the driver and conductor because they were trapped. Despite the driver's repeated explanations and good words, what does this mean to passengers facing a desperate situation?

Some of the babies and toddlers inside were so frightened by the loud voices of the passengers that they cried, and in an instant, the workshop was in chaos.

Chen Xuewu couldn't be indifferent any longer, and immediately pushed the car door. Since it was locked, he struck it hard with his fist a few times.

The bus driver thought that when his passengers got off the bus just now, some people who fell behind did not come up in time, so he activated the switch, and the door of the car was suddenly opened.

Chen Xuewu stepped on the car and saw that the carriage with forty or fifty seats was already full, including many infants and young children of different ages.

At this time, due to his intervention, the grumpy strong passengers all stopped shouting and couldn't help but look at this uninvited guest coldly.

The female conductor saw that he didn't look like a passenger in her car, and couldn't help frowning: "Who are you?" Why get in our car? ”

Chen Xuewu didn't mind the arrogance and rudeness of the other party, but persuaded the emotional passengers: "We are all trapped, in fact, no one wants such a thing to happen." Your feelings are understandable. But since you are a gentleman, you should remain calm, because your women and children are dependent on you at this juncture. If you lose an inch, won't that make them even more panicked? You see, these kids are crying with fear. ”

His words made the indignant men wilt, and the sharp energy that emerged just now was gone.

When the female conductor saw that the other party was here to help persuade her to break the siege, the frost on her face instantly melted into a ball of harmony.

One of the men looked at his woman and child, and couldn't help complaining: "Our family of three went back to our hometown for the New Year. It turned out to... Alas, what kind of car is the driver driving? ”

Chen Xuewu smiled bitterly: "There are hundreds of vehicles trapped on this road now. Can you say it's all driver's problems? Our current predicament is caused by natural disasters, and we can't blame the driver. ”

"Hmph, do you want me to be considerate of the driver? Then we are currently trapped here, who cares about eating, drinking, and Lazar? We adults can still go hungry for a few meals, but our children are so young, if they can't eat, there will be big problems with their bodies. ”

At this time, Chen Xuewu took stock of the babies and toddlers in the carriage, and there were no less than six or seven.

He said to the parents of the children: "Don't you have some food with you?" ”

The young parents shook their heads, and one of the women said, "We will be home in a few hours, and our relatives in my hometown have prepared good food and drink, what else do we have to eat?" ”

Chen Xuewu thought for a moment, and immediately said: "I'll help these children get some food now." But the adults had to be patient. ”

When the passengers heard this, their eyes lit up and they ordered: "As long as we don't let our children starve, we adults don't care." ”

Chen Xuewu nodded: "Okay, you can wait here for a while." I'll bring something to eat right away. ”

After Chen Xuewu got off the bus, the driver, the female conductor and those passengers all looked at each other, not knowing what kind of way this middle-aged man came from?

When Chen Xuewu returned to his car, he found that Juanzi was eating, so he opened the back door of the car.

Juanzi hurriedly turned around: "Uncle Chen, I have already prepared your breakfast." You can eat when you go to the front cab. ”

Unexpectedly, Chen Xuewu shook his head categorically: "I'm not hungry yet." Now there is a bus in front of them, and the children in need of food are even more needed. Now no matter what, you can't go hungry for children. Therefore, I will give it to them to eat. (To be continued.) )
