Chapter 15: Lost

Su Yan sponsored children in the mountainous areas to go to school, Su Dad and Su Ma agreed with this, and Su Ma also packed a lot of Su Yan and Su Kai's clothes that didn't fit when they were young, and washed them again, so that Su Yan could find a time to send them to those children. Although these clothes are simple in style, they are not outdated because of this, and Su Yan and Su Kai are both quiet children and rarely get their clothes dirty, so these clothes are still seven or eight percent new. In particular, some of Su Yan's clothes were bought by Su's mother, and she didn't like them very much, so she usually only wore them once or twice and then put them away, and those looked no different from new.

But as Su Yan originally expected, Su's mother did not agree with her going out after the New Year. Originally, she didn't approve of her going to the mountains in the clouds alone as a girl to Su's father, but after learning that Su Yan had made an appointment with the student aid agency, and after she arrived in the urban area of Qingpu City, there would be local staff to accompany her into the mountain, and Su Yan promised to report his whereabouts to him regularly, so she reluctantly agreed.

A week after the holiday, Su Yan set off with a simple bag. In fact, she also prepared some snacks and the like, but she was the laziest to hold a large bag and a small bag, so she asked her to find out through the post office and send it to Su Ma in advance with the big bag of clothes.

She only carries two sets of clothes with a change of clothes, as well as a lot of chocolates and compressed biscuits, which are standard equipment when she travels, in case there is a traffic jam or a broken down car on the road, which can come in handy.

There is no direct flight to Qingpu City in the southeast provincial capital, so Su Yan first took a plane to Yunlai City in Yunzhong Province, and then took a tourist bus from Yunlai City to Qingpu. Fortunately, Yunlai City and Qingpu City are not far apart. It's a 200-kilometer drive, and the bus doesn't take more than three hours to arrive.

When she arrived in Qingpu City, it was already about five o'clock in the afternoon, and Su Yan contacted the staff of the Qingpu City Student Aid Agency as originally planned, but no one answered the phone. Anyway, she couldn't go that day, so Su Yan found a hotel and stayed first.

In the evening, at eight or nine o'clock, Su Yan called the staff member again. This time, someone finally answered, but the staff member was no longer in Qingpu City, but had already returned to his hometown.

The lady was very embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Miss Su, I thought your itinerary had changed." Didn't come that quickly. ”

Su Yan was speechless: "Didn't you make an appointment to arrive today?" ”

"That's what I said at first. But you didn't call yesterday to confirm. I thought you weren't coming! ”

"......" this person's hometown is in another province, and he will not be able to come back for a while, there are only three people in this office, and the other two have other things to do. But Su Yan is here. You can't go home at this time. "Or I'll go by myself tomorrow! You tell me the route. ”

"So? It's okay, the people over there are simple, and there is actually no danger. However, there is no bus in Qinglin Village. Go over there if not by car. Usually we would go to the post office and rub the postal car there. When the postal bus goes to Qinglin Town, it will first pass through the intersection outside Qinglin Village, and it will take about 20 minutes to walk. ”

"Postal car?" As soon as she thought of finding a way, Su Yan was a little big. The only well-known big flaw of Miss Su is that she doesn't recognize the way, "Where is the post office?" ”

"It's at 100 Chengnan Road." Xiao Li's signal may not be very good, and the voice intermittently reported an address, "The post office building is quite magnificent, you ask the people at the hotel, they must know." ”

"Okay!" So far, that's all it has to be.

Xiao Li said that the postal bus would leave at half past seven in the morning, so Su Yan turned up the alarm clock, got up at six o'clock the next day, and when she finished packing up and went down to the hotel lobby, it was only half past six.

Su Yan checked out and asked the staff about the post office.

It was already past seven o'clock when I found the post office, and the postal car was loading things, and as soon as Su Yan said that he was coming, the driver master understood, saying that Xiao Chen had mentioned this matter to him.

At half past seven, Su Yan successfully took the car from the post office and set off. I took advantage of this time to call Su's father, saying that now we are going to Qinglin Village, the signal in the mountains may be bad or there is no signal at all, so don't worry when he can't get through the phone, she asked the driver, there will be a car to that side tomorrow morning, and she will contact him when she returns to Qingpu City.

Qingpu city is not far from Qingyuan Village, less than 50 kilometers away. However, the mountain road was difficult, and the driver drove very slowly, and when he reached the intersection outside Qinglin Village that they said, nearly two hours had passed, and the time was half past nine.

Su Yan looked at her surroundings and jumped out of the car neatly. The master's voice chased after her and told her: "After you go inside for about a kilometer, there will be a fork, you take the intersection on the south side, and you will walk about a kilometer or so, and it will be Qinglin Village." There are two tall trees at the entrance of the village, which are very recognizable! ”

Su Yan turned around and waved at the driver with a smile: "Got it." Thank you, master! ”

After watching the car go away, Su Yan raised her feet and walked into the only intersection in front of her.

It was winter, and the sun was mild at half past nine, and the sun made people lazy. I don't know what kind of trees are planted in the woods on both sides of the road, and although the leaves begin to turn yellow during this season, they still do not fall, and occasionally the wind blows, and there is a rain of golden leaves.

The road is quiet, although it is inaccessible, but the road is quite wide, but some small animals pop up in the woods from time to time, Su Yan slowly walks and watches, but she is not bored.

After walking for about twenty minutes, a fork in the road appeared in front of Su Yan. Su Yan turned into the intersection on the south side.

It's no wonder that the postal cart first delivers the mail to the town's post office, and then the town's post office staff rides a tricycle to deliver the mail...... Because the road into the village has reached this section, which is more than twice as small as the big intersection just now, even if you drive over, you can't get in!

And the road is narrower the further you go inside, and there are several forks in the road. Neither Xiao Chen nor the postal car master mentioned it, so Su Yan chose the south side based on her feelings, thinking that even if she was wrong, it would not be too late to turn back.

I walked for nearly half an hour unconsciously, and there was still no trace of the two big trees that the master said were particularly recognizable. Su Yan took a sip of the water bottle in her backpack, and finally realized a question: Did she go the wrong way?

She was not wrong to go south according to the route told by her master, but the question was whether her sense of direction was wrong again......

Fortunately, Su Yan usually pays attention to regular exercise, and after walking like this, she doesn't feel very tired. Su Yan regained her direction and began to walk back.

In about ten minutes, she arrived at the nearest fork in the road, and Su Yan looked at the situation in front of her and was stunned: which intersection did she turn in from just now?

She looked at her watch, it was almost half past ten, just choose one, she saw that these paths have traces of people coming and going, it should not be very far from the village, if you really can't find it, it's a big deal to find an open place, get some wet branches to burn, get some cigarettes to attract the villagers over.
