Chapter 41: Distress in the Mountains

"Momo, you're here." An Xiaoyue deliberately raised her voice, it was the time for the employees to take their lunch break, and the entrance of the magazine was crowded with people.

An Xiaoyue just wanted everyone to see Qin Yumo coming to pick her up in person, of course, it would be better if Zheng Yufei could see it.

Yu Sang lowered the window of the car and greeted the person outside: "Director An." ”

An Xiaoyue's smile instantly froze on her face: "What about Momo?" ”

"Time is tight, the president went directly to the teahouse."

Yu Sang's explanation was flawless, but An Xiaoyue couldn't laugh, Qin Yumo didn't come? Isn't this a slap in the face in public!

An Xiaoyue looked around with some weakness, fortunately, those employees didn't notice whether Qin Luomo was sitting in the car.

She breathed a sigh of relief and reluctantly got into the car.

Zheng Yufei was about to go to the scene with Li Simo, and when she went out, she bumped into the back of Yu Sang driving An Xiaoyue away.

"Private car pick-up, not ordinary people." Li Simo saw the Maserati and commented silently.

"Hmm." Zheng Yufei lowered her head and answered softly.

She recognized that car, and she had often seen Yu Sang running around the city with Qin Yumo before.

It seems that the relationship between An Xiaoyue and Qin Yumo is really different from before, Zheng Yufei suddenly felt a little blocked, but she felt ridiculous, why should she be jealous.

Regardless of whether An Xiaoyue and Qin Yumo have a lover relationship, An Xiaoyue is also Qin Yumo's quasi-daughter-in-law in a certain sense, and she Zheng Yufei has only received Qin Yumo's help a few times, so why is her position uncomfortable.

However, Zheng Yufei didn't have too long to think about these things, she and Li Simo still had a lot of work to complete.

The provincial television station to which Li Simo belongs wants to work with the magazine to shoot a program on local folk customs, which will be completed before the Spring Festival, and the time is tight and the task is heavy.

After Zheng Yufei and Li Simo finalized the plan, they immediately decided to rush to the suburban village to collect materials.

"It's a remote place." Zheng Yufei sat in Li Simo's second-hand Jetta and rubbed his hands, the warm air of the Jetta was not very sensitive, and it was barely operating, and the carriage was cold and hot.

To be honest, compared to the remoteness of the suburbs, it is very important that Zheng Yufei takes such a "broken" car for the first time.

"Sorry, I haven't had time to fix the car yet." Li Simo extinguished the fire and unbuckled his seat belt, "I can't drive into the village in front of me, so I can't do it." ”

"Okay." Zheng Yufei got out of the car with Li Simo, and for some reason felt that the outdoor temperature was warmer than the car, "Is the reporter's salary very low?" Why bought such a car. ”

Li Simo scratched his head a little embarrassed: "Mainly because of the Jetta's low fuel consumption and durability."

Zheng Yufei was amused by his vulgar remarks and took the lead in walking forward. This place can really be described as deserted, Zheng Yufei couldn't help but wonder in her heart if Li Simo's leader had a mental problem, and actually sent people to this kind of place to collect folk customs.

But to Zheng Yufei's surprise, it was still behind, and after walking about two miles, the two came to a mountain.

"This ...... Will there be people living here? Zheng Yufei's eyes were about to pop out, there was obviously no normal way up the mountain here, and the paths for people to walk were washed out by the rain, which looked steep and dangerous.

"No matter how developed a city is, there will be some people living in a poor environment around it, not because the government does not provide a good living environment, but because they are unwilling to leave."

Li Simo took out a pair of telescopic trekking poles from his backpack and handed one to Zheng Yufei.

"I didn't expect you to come with me, I only brought a pair, so let's just take it."

Zheng Yufei took the trekking pole, said thank you and prepared to go up the mountain. This made Li Simo a little surprised, he thought that this young lady from a famous family would not be able to endure this hardship.

The path washed out by the rain is lined with dry shrubs on both sides, but it doesn't seem to be so disorganized, and someone must have deliberately taken care of it.

"The place doesn't seem to be so desolate either." Zheng Yufei followed behind Li Simo and made her own remarks.

"Yes, because it's a tourist attraction." Li Simo brushed aside the low-hanging branches in front of him and made way for Zheng Yufei, "The front is Longshou Mountain, because the front mountain gate is a scenic spot, we can't enter, and now we are walking the back mountain, Jiguan Mountain." ”

No wonder it looks a little familiar, it turns out to be a famous tourist area. There is a hot spring in Longshou Mountain, so it was changed to a hot spring villa, but because there are people living in Jiguan Mountain, the conditions have not been properly negotiated, so it has been abandoned here.

Fortunately, the Cockscomb Mountain is not very high, and the two of them climbed halfway up the mountain in half an hour, and they can already see the village near the top of the mountain in front of them.

But the road is getting harder and harder, and the mountains are getting steeper. Li Simo walked in front of Zheng Yufei at first, and slowly walked behind her.

Such a steep mountain, if she slips and falls, she can still pick her up, Li Simo thought in his heart, but Zheng Yufei suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?"

Li Simo raised his head, Zheng Yufei's front was a deep pit, the diameter was as long as Zheng Yufei's leg, and it was a little difficult to step over.

"Damn!" Li Simo couldn't help but burst into foul language, "This group of villagers must not want outsiders to enter, so they deliberately dug a pit." ”

"So what now? The villagers dig pits, what do they do themselves? ”

Li Simo touched his chin and studied it: "If they can dig a pit, it means that they have other ways to go, but we don't know."

Zheng Yufei looked around, there was really no other way to go, and there were dense shrubs on both sides, if he broke through, he would definitely make a cut, so he could only jump over from this side.

Li Simo thought for a while, and suddenly took off his mountaineering clothes, and took off his long-sleeved shirt inside, he was only wearing a black cotton vest, and the strong muscle lines of his arms were exposed.

Before Zheng Yufei could think about what Li Simo was going to do, his face turned red because of his actions.

"You...... What are you doing? ”

"Of course, it's to find a way to get through." Li Simo didn't raise his head, and concentrated on tying a knot at one of the cuffs of his coat and stuffing a slightly larger stone into it, "You took off your clothes too." ”

Li Simo didn't know how ambiguous this sentence fell on Zheng Yufei's ears, and when he raised his head, Zheng Yufei's face was already comparable to red-hot iron.

“?” Li Simo first looked at her suspiciously, and then realized that Zheng Yufei was thinking crookedly.

"Sister, I mean you take off your coat, I'm going to use it." Li Simo stretched out his hand to Zheng Yufei speechlessly, and Zheng Yufei took off the cotton clothes and stuffed them into Li Simo's hands with a red face.

Lismo tied the sleeves of all three clothes together and tied them in a dead knot, twisting them like thick ropes and throwing them towards the tree on the other side of the pit.

Li Simo steadily caught the "rope" that was thrown back and pulled it hard with his hand.

"Sturdy, we can go."

Only then did Zheng Yufei know why Li Simo wanted clothes, he was going to make a long rope and put it on the tree, so that they could climb up from the bottom of the pit.

Li Simo jumped into the pit first, in fact, it was not too deep for Li Simo's height of 185, and he jumped down and was still exposed above his chest.

It's just that the wall of this pit is almost vertical, and it is easy to come down and difficult to go up, so Li Simo was in a hurry and temporarily made a "rope" for them to climb.

Li Simo turned around and stretched out his hand to Zheng Yufei.

"Come down, I'll pick you up."

Zheng Yufei squatted down on the edge of the pit, and was about to stretch out his hand to Li Simo, but suddenly he was in a trance.

This rope ......

This deep pit......

Suddenly there was a sense of déjà vu.

Li Simo still stretched out his hand in her direction, but his face that was close at hand suddenly seemed to be far away.

Zheng Yufei pressed her temples in pain, Li Simo's face overlapped with a vague face in her memory, and they stretched out their hands to Zheng Yufei together.

"Come here."

Zheng Yufei exclaimed, and suddenly his eyes went dark.
