Chapter 20: The Water Disaster 2

On the national highway, the river gradually became much less on the road. It is estimated that it is a small city, so there are not many vehicles, and occasionally one or two trucks are seen passing by. Lichun practiced glass spelling in the car, which was also one of the methods that Xiao Heng taught him to feel the changes most substantially.

There was a broken mirror on the Lichun bag, and Xiao Heng deliberately broke it for him. Feel the spiritual power at the center of your eyebrows, and concentrate your thoughts on putting the pieces together piece by piece. Lichun can now spell three or four pieces, and if there are more, they will spread out. This is also progress, at least it is okay to be confused in front of ordinary people.

Driving until noon, when he came to the roadside service area, Xiao Heng went to fill up the oil, and by the way bought a barrel of oil for backup. Lichun bought two buckets of instant noodles and soaked them, waiting for Xiao Heng to come over.

At this time, several military vehicles drove into the service area, and a few soldiers came down from the cars one after another, and Lichun didn't care, after all, there were everyone in the service area. Xiao Heng came over and looked at the military vehicle twice, and said in a low voice, "This car came from the inland, I don't know what to do here." If the government is not clear, the people will flee one day later, and the more people with money and status will control the resources, the sooner they flee early. ”

"Shall we follow these military vehicles and see where they go?" Lichun's thinking is relatively simple, if the military vehicle really has some destination, it will not lose.

"Hmph, what you think is too simple, you can't keep up, let's go honestly, and try to find a place to stay today. It's been a hard time. When we get to the west, let's rent a house and live for a while. In this process, the government will also be involved in tackling the flood problem. Didn't explode that quickly. ”

"What caused this flood?" Lichun asked as he drank the soup.

"It's not clear, no one knows the future derivative line."

The two did not delay, ate instant noodles and filled two bottles of boiling water to continue on the road. It didn't take long for the military vehicles to catch up. Several military vehicles overtook Lichun one after another in front of them, and Lichun saw that there were several women and children in the opposite car in the process. Apparently they didn't get out of the car just now.

"Lao Xiao, it seems that their car is to send their wives and children to take refuge."

"Possibly, regardless of them. You keep practicing. Stay overnight, you can test your mental strength and see if you can pass the test. ”

It's tiring to travel, and although it's in a dream, it's tiring to stay in the car all the time. The car got off the national highway and drove slowly into a small town. The town looks like there are only two streets, both of which are accommodation and restaurants. It seems that this town is dedicated to passing through accommodation and eating.

The hotels where I stayed were all built on the second floor, and I looked at the new ones when I found a home. The accommodation is quite cheap, and the standard room is 50 yuan a night, but Xiao Heng didn't let Lichun pay, but let him try it with his mental power. Lichun had no choice but to stare at the woman at the front desk and say, "The money is given to you, I want a standard room with a window." As if she had really collected the money, the woman looked at her ID card, threw the key to 203 to Lichun, and watched TV by herself.

Lichun's palms were sweaty while holding the key, and he was too nervous to do this for the first time. After taking the key, the two did not go to the room, but went out to find a restaurant for dinner. Xiao Heng patted Lichun on the shoulder to express encouragement. Lichun finally came to his senses: "Will you eat for a while or not pay?" "Lichun seems to be addicted and thinks he can continue.

"If there are too many people, forget it, it is impossible for your mental power to interfere with so many people at the same time. However, you can try to interfere with both of them at the same time. When you use it, your attention expands, and you try to cover both of you in it at the same time. Xiao Heng put his arm around Lichun's shoulders and walked while imparting experience

"Got it, I'll go to the door of the restaurant and look for a test with few people." Lichun is very excited, and he has confidence in a success.

There is a row of restaurants opposite the hostel, all of which are much the same, rice and stir-fry. After walking around and observing that there were fewer families on the very edge, the husband and wife sat in the lobby watching TV, and the restaurant was not big. Lichun took the lead and went in, and the boss saw that the two hurriedly beckoned to sit down first, and the menu was brought immediately.

Lichun sat closer to the TV, and it was convenient to control both husband and wife by paying for a while. The two are not picky, after all, they are not really hungry. I ordered a meat and a vegetarian meal. It's only about 30 pieces after eating. After all, doing bad things, although it is a dream, still exists here. 30 or so is not too much, and it can't make an impact. ’

Lichun got up and walked to the husband and wife, deliberately put his hand in his pocket to take the money, and then looked at the two of them at the same time, "The meal money is paid, it tastes good, thank you." After the husband and wife paused, the proprietress was still watching TV, and the boss raised his head and said, "Okay, go slowly, there is a chance to come again." ”

Lichun breathed a sigh of relief and succeeded. I can't do much about this, I feel quite guilty. Xiao Heng smiled and looked at Lichun's appearance of doing something wrong. "Okay, don't think about it, let's go back to the hotel and look at the map. Tomorrow I will try to get to the western border and stay there for a day to prepare some supplies. After all, the west is deserted, the car broke down on the road and there was nothing to eat, and I heard that there were wolves there at night. So here comes the time to exercise your mental strength again. ”

"That's a little difficult. If you don't do it, you will be out of the dream directly. ”

"If you leave, you will get out, and if you have a chance, you will come back in." Xiao Heng didn't care.

Lichun nodded, and the two went up to the second floor and took out the key to open the door. The standard room is very clean, two beds, air-conditioned bathroom everything. After taking a shower, the two took out the map and looked at it. During this time, there will also be a large river on the way, which has basically dried up in the usual winter, and it is not clear what the situation of this large river is. If it goes well, I will be able to rush to Nishijikai City at 9 or 10 o'clock tomorrow night.

The next morning, the two of them set off without eating. Heading towards the national highway, it was early in the morning and there were no vehicles on the road. So Xiao Heng raised the speed of the car. After passing through the toll booth, Lichun used his mental power again, and it was still very successful. This time it can be used from a distance, which shows that the ability has been improved again.

The further west you go, the more desolate it becomes, and there is no greenery left on the roadside. There are not even villages and towns, large areas of dry wasteland and barren mountains. Unlike the city they had left, villages and towns and fields were one after another. There is no scenery to see on the road, Lichun has practiced mental power again, and from the morning Lichun glass can be spelled 6 pieces. There are also 5 or 6 pieces to put the mirrors together.

It was almost noon when there was a long queue of cars in front of us, and I didn't know what was going on in front of me. The two got out of the car and walked forward, and after walking a few hundred meters, they saw those military vehicles. So Lichun went over and knocked on the window, and the window was lowered, and it was an officer, so he asked, "Hey, hello chief." What's going on in front of this. It looks like a long line. The officer didn't want to pay attention to Lichun very much, and continued to look down at the map in his hand, while the driver next to him, Xiao Bing, said, "There seems to be an accident ahead, if you are in a hurry, you have to take a detour." "Okay, thank you, brother."

The two returned to the car, and Xiao Heng also took out the map to look at. "In front of this road is the place where the big river is, and I don't know what happened. If you take a detour, you will have to walk for more than half a day to get to the other side of the river. Let's take a detour, no matter when it is solved in front, it is better to take a detour for the sake of safety. With that, Xiao Heng turned the car around and drove back.

At this time, the military vehicle in front also started and turned around, obviously the same as Xiao Heng thought.

There were no vehicles on this side of the road, so Xiao Heng tried his best to increase the speed of the car to the limit, faster than when he came. Arrived at a fork in the road, the road was a dirt road. The map shows following the road just around the river. Now we can only pray that the car is performing well and that it does not break down on dirt roads.

The dirt road is obviously much slower than the road, and after two or three hours of driving, there is still no one and the car is running out of gas. Fortunately, I had two barrels of gasoline on hand yesterday. So Lichun let Xiao Heng rest, and the two of them added oil on the side of the road and stretched by the way. I could faintly see a military vehicle coming from behind.

The military vehicle stopped when it came to Lichun, and when the window opened, the officer in the co-pilot said, "The car broke down?" "No, it's a little longer to drive." Xiao Heng said.

"Xiaofang, let's pull over the car, let's get down for convenience." The officer said to the soldier next to him.

Several military vehicles drove to the side of the road in front and stopped, and nine or ten people came down one after another, including two children and three women. There were two officers, and there were three soldiers left who were driving.

Lichun squatted there and motioned for Xiao Heng to squat down and whispered, "Do you want to set up the news?" ”

"Okay, you wait here." Xiao Heng rubbed Lichun's head. Walk towards the group. The woman had already dragged the child to a distant place to find a convenient place, and a few older men took a few steps to solve it on the spot.

Lichun walked up to the soldier who had just spoken to them and greeted, "Brother, we met again." Did you learn anything over there? ”

The soldier saw Xiao Heng and nodded, "Well, let's go over there and find out, there is a river in front of us that is very high and has reached the level of the bridge deck, the bridge deck is frozen, and several cars have collided on the bridge in a row, which is quite serious." Fortunately, there were no casualties, several cars broke down on the bridge, and there was no store in front of the village, waiting for the police and tow trucks to arrive I don't know when. ”

"Oh, that's good thing we made a quick U-turn, and we don't know when we'll be able to cross the bridge. Where are you going? Xiao Heng asked indifferently.

"Oh, go to the West Boundary City. What about you? "We're going there too, and I don't know if we'll be able to get there today."

At this time, several women and children came back conveniently, and the soldiers could not talk any more, so they said hello and went to open the door for the children.

Xiao Heng also came back and let Lichun get in the car. "The soldier meant to go to the western boundary city, I guess it's just a temporary stay there, and the destination may be the same as ours." Xiao Heng started the car as he spoke, and pressed the horn to signal the military vehicle next to him that they were on their way first.
