Chapter 34 Yue Province

86_86324After the car was on the road again, there were more houses on the side of the road. The houses in the rain and fog have a rural style. Rows of crooked telephone poles stand on the side of the national highway, with an alternative beauty. From these roadside buildings, it can be seen that the people who used to live on the side of the national highway are still living well.

Once again, the rain has cleaned the world, and the dusty signs that used to stand on the side of the road are now washed away like new. However, the rain here is heavier than in Wanzhou City, and streams of water leak down the hillside like a waterfall and flow onto the national highway.

Uncle Wang said that he was most afraid of driving in this kind of weather, not because the road was slippery, because the rain would wash away the mud, and maybe you would just drive past and collapse a slope.

"The people's highway is built by the people, and the highway is built for the people", a slogan painted on the wall appeared on the side of the road, and I thought it was quite smooth, so I memorized it.

Outside the car window, there are all kinds of things: buses and trucks parked on the side of the road, excavators at the construction site, elementary schools in the countryside......

Zhou Zhihong pointed to the primary school and said that he had lived in it.

"School at night, not to mention how scary, I didn't sleep that night." He shook his head and said, "Even if I sleep on the street in the future, I don't want to go to school to sleep." ”

At first, when I saw these fresh things outside the window, I would still feel interesting, but after watching more, I would feel that no matter how interesting things are, without the backing of people, they are all in vain.

A rainy afternoon would make people sleepy more than the sun, and I had no intention of enjoying the scenery outside the window, so I fell on top of Duan Ke and took a nap.

That afternoon, I had a dream in which a tattooed man and a bullet man followed us all the way to Wanzhou City. After we left, they went to the clinic, met the female doctor, and dragged her away. I was a little happy in my dream, who told her to be alone, to stay in the clinic and not to go with us.

Then our group got the news for some reason, and we were just about to leave to go back to rescue her, when I was woken up by Duan Ke.

I opened my eyes and found that I was lying in her arms.

Duan Ke saw me wake up with a smile on his face. The look on her face told me that her cold and fever were half recovered, if not completely.

"What have you been yelling about just now, who are you talking about?" Duan Ke still asked me in a nasal voice.

I didn't answer her, still immersed in the dream. I was thinking that the female doctor who lived there alone might meet the bad guy one day. Should I tell you about meeting her and go back and convince her to join us? But it's impossible to think about it, we've driven so far, who has the patience to turn around and drive back.

Forget it, I'm not related to her, and I've already mentioned it to her once, if she really has an accident one day, I'll be okay with my conscience.

Duan saw that I ignored her, so he frowned slightly, and continued, "Are you talking about me? ”

I hurriedly pulled myself out of her arms and said, "No, no, how could it be, I don't know what I'm dreaming about." ”

Zhou Zhihong heard our conversation and snickered in front of him.

"Are you feeling better?" I asked her again.

"Hmm." Duan Ke nodded and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Uncle Wang stepped on the brakes and stopped the car. I looked out the windshield and saw the car parked in front of a torii.

Uncle Wang got out of the car by himself, and I thought to myself, could it be that I went to some scenic spot? So he and Zhou Zhihong followed.

The rain outside had stopped, but the road beneath your feet was potholed and full of small puddles. On the top of the archway, the word "Wanzhou" is written.

Uncle Wang handed me a cigarette, pointed to the archway and said, "Drive from here and you'll be in Hubei." ”

I saw several yellow and black cement piers piled next to the archway, which should be used to block the road. This must be what Zhou Zhihong said.

"I'm almost home." Zhou Zhihong said to himself.

After a cigarette, we went back to the car.

"Hubei, Hubei." I muttered a few times in my mouth, and then asked Zhou Zhihong, "I heard that there are wild people in Hubei, Zhou Zhihong, have you ever seen it?" ”

"Savages?" Zhou Zhihong turned his head and said, "That's from Shennongjia, my family is not there." ”

"What is a wildling?" Duan Ke asked me.

"As the name suggests," I asked, "it's people who live in the wild." ”

"However, a wild man is not a man, but a human-like animal, with hair all over his body. I've seen it on TV and in books that it's very mysterious, it's all over the world, it's elusive, it's scary. I said, "Actually, it's scary enough just to think about it, and if you think about it, a humanoid with hair all over its body, running around in the woods all day long, how terrifying it is." ”

"Isn't that a monkey, it sounds so cute." Duan can be said.

"No, no, no, how do you think of being a monkey," I waved my hand to her, "and imagine that I am hairy, and that my hair is disheveled, and my mouth is full of fangs, and if you meet me in the wild, I will take you captive." ”

"How's that, do you feel scared?" I continued.

Duan Ke looked at my face, pinched his chin and thought for a while, then shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I just think it's funny." ”

I gave her a blank look, and said to myself, is my girlfriend a hardcore?

"My grandfather used to live in Shennongjia and told me something." Zhou Zhihong said suddenly.

"What did you say?" When I heard this, I was immediately interested, and leaned over to the seat and asked him.

"It's about the savages, he mentioned some to me." Zhou Zhihong recalled.

"At that time, their village was next to the Shennongjia Forest Area, and my grandfather said that when they went up the mountain to cut firewood, they had to put bamboo tubes in their arms. Because as soon as it meets a wild man, it will hold you by the arm and laugh until you faint. Although the savage is smart, he doesn't know that you have a tube in your arm, and if you bring a bamboo tube, it will hold the bamboo tube on your arm. When it faints, you can pull out the bamboo tube and escape. ”

"Why is it arresting people?" Duan Ke asked.

"Who knows, it may be lonely." I say.

"And did your grandfather ever see what a wild man looked like?" I asked Zhou Zhihong.

Zhou Zhihong shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be, my grandfather passed away early, I listened to him when I was a child, and I don't remember a lot of words." He coaxed me that if I didn't obey, I would be taken away by the savages. ”

"Then you have really lived in the shadows since you were a child, I read those stories about wild people when I was a child, and I was so scared that I didn't dare to go to the toilet alone at night." I said with a smile.

"No, I was young, I didn't know what that thing was, I didn't feel scared." Zhou Zhihong said.

Uncle Wang cleared his throat and interjected, "I saw that thing you said in Vietnam. ”

Zhou Zhihong and I turned our heads to look at him.

"We had a mission to cross the border to Vietnam and stay in a cave at night. It didn't take long for me to wake up kicked. I thought it was the Vietnamese soldiers who had spotted us, so I picked up my gun and stood up. And I saw everybody staring at the hole, and I followed it, and guess what, damn it, a hairy man was standing at the mouth of the cave staring at us. ”

"What does it look like?" I couldn't help but ask.

"Listen to me," Uncle Wang said as he drove, waving his hand, "everyone in our class is stupid, what the fuck is this?" I thought it was a monkey at first, but if I looked closely, it looked like a human being, with hair longer than your girlfriend's, and a human-like face, no hair, but his face was flattened, and his mouth was thin and long, which was completely different from the monkey's mouth. ”

"And he's so tall and strong, I guess neither of them can beat him. It roared, so loud that it shook everyone in our class. Uncle Wang said.

"And then, it ran away?" Zhou Zhihong asked.

"How can it run, it's obvious that we occupy the place where it sleeps, and we are going to get it back." Uncle Wang said, "Later, one of my comrades-in-arms took out a pistol and hit it in the head, and the shot collapsed. ”

"What color is the hair on its body?" I asked, and the most pictures I saw of wild men were about hair, and I couldn't help but ask this question.

Uncle Wang held the steering wheel and thought for a while, and said, "The red one is also a little yellow, I can't remember it." But the stench on it, not to mention, we can all smell it in the cave. ”

"It's interesting." I said, and then lay back in the chair, Uncle Wang's various experiences are enviable.

"So there's nothing magical about that thing, I guess it's just a big monkey that looks like a human, and I just remembered when you mentioned it today." Uncle Wang said.

As soon as Uncle Wang finished speaking, Zhou Zhihong in front of him immediately leaned out, helped his glasses, and hurriedly said, "Stop, stop, look at what's in front of you!" ”

When Uncle Wang heard Zhou Zhihong's surprise, he immediately stepped on the brakes. He looked ahead and couldn't help but curse.

It turned out that more than ten meters away, next to the national highway built according to the mountain, there was a pile of sloping soil that seemed to have been blown apart by someone, dumped in the middle of the road, blocking our way
