Chapter 24
In the evening, Mo Ci sat on the steps outside the hotel, staring at the sunset, and Xiaobai ran around at her feet, snorting once or twice from time to time.
Just now she pulled a piece of bread and soaked it in water and fed it to Xiaobai, Xiaobai really ate it, and ate all the remaining soup.
After confirming the eyes, this is a dog that is not picky eaters, easy to feed.
Xiaobai ran around her for a while, and then ran to the telephone pole on the side of the road and peed in a circle.
Mo Ci stared at it with interest.
Song Yelin walked out of the hotel with two large plastic buckets, he didn't expect that there were people on the steps outside the door, and the plastic buckets in his hand hit Mo Ci's head.
"Sorry, I didn't see you here."
Mo Ci looked back at him with the back of his head covered, and he handed over a bucket in his hand.
She glanced at the plastic bucket, "What?" ”
"Come and do me a favor."
She took the bucket, got up and followed Song Yelin, the man went straight to the gas station, filled both buckets with gasoline, and then motioned to one of the buckets and asked her, "Are you okay?" ”
She reached out and tried to lift the oil drum, which she could lift, but it was heavy.
"It should ...... Yes. ”
"Take it to the school bus." After Song Yelin finished speaking, he easily carried a bucket of oil and walked towards the school bus.
The man's pace was easy, not at all strained.
And she took a lot of effort to pick up the entire oil drum, take two steps to take a breath, and take three steps to take a big breath.
Trying to carry this oil drum feels completely different from picking it up and walking a few steps.
She couldn't take it, she couldn't take it at all.
After Song Yelin carried the oil drum onto the school bus, she looked at Mo Ci through the windshield, she hadn't walked out of the gas station yet. He hooked his lips lightly, jumped out of the car and hurried up to meet her, carried the oil drum in her hand, and pretended to be serious: "No, I said it earlier." ”
“……”
Watching Song Yelin lift the oil drum onto the school bus without much effort, she was suddenly surprised at how strong this man was, he could lift such a big living person like her like a chicken with his bare hands.
Xiao Bai ran to her feet at this time, shaved her trouser leg with her little paws, she picked up Xiao Bai and walked straight to Song Yelin.
Song Yeshuang touched the dog's head, carried Xiaobai over, and continued to touch the dog's head.
"How far is it from Phoenix?" She asked.
"There should be two more days to go."
She nodded thoughtfully, she knew that the two-day trip Song Yelin was referring to to going to F City, and no one knew where the specific Phoenix City was, and only when they arrived in F City could they understand the situation over there.
"If we don't stop all the way, we can be there in two days."
"Then don't stop."
There are a total of four people who can drive, Mo Ci, Mo Father, Song Yelin and Li Yanqi, if they only drive the school bus, the four of them will drive it differently, and there is no need to stop for two days.
Mo Ci thought like this, and also told Song Yelin his thoughts, and Song Yelin said without thinking about it: "It's feasible." ”
"It's more expensive to drive two cars, in fact, there is no need for this, anyway, we are all the way to the south, the target is F City, and it is okay to drive a school bus." Mo Ci said again.
"Then do as you say."
……
In the evening, Mo Ci cooked the remaining steak meat and dumplings, and more than a dozen people crowded into the hotel hall to have a delicious meal, and after eating, Mo Ci told the people present his thoughts.
"There are four of us, each of us drives for four hours, in shifts, for two days, so that we can get to City F as quickly as possible."
No one refuted her, and everyone nodded.
Without Boss Zhao's spirit, everyone is still more united.
After eating, everyone went back to their rooms to rest, Mo Ci ran to the kitchen, where there was still some dry firewood, he added some water to the pot, ready to boil some hot water for a bath.
Today's weather is too hot, she is sweaty, and she has to wash well, but she can't be like Song Yelin and Li Yanqi, just pour a few basins of cold water from the top of her head, and she can be regarded as taking a bath.
This rest stop is one of the places where there is no water stop, it is very convenient to use water, but there is no electricity, fortunately, there is an old generator in the supermarket that can barely be used, in the afternoon, Song Yelin and Li Yanqi were tired to move the generator to the hotel, everyone finally does not have to touch the dark, and can also charge the mobile phone, although the mobile phone has no signal, can not make and receive calls, but there are many practical functions on the mobile phone, such as flashlight, compass, radio and date and time, etc., everyone invariably fully charged the mobile phone, in case of emergency.
Mo Ci finished taking a bath and returned to the room lightly, Nian Xiaoye was sitting on the bed changing the wound dressing, and she walked over while wiping her hair.
"Need help?"
Nian Xiaoye smiled and shook his head, "No, I can still change the medicine." ”
When her hair was half dry, she threw the towel aside and lay down on the floor, feeling a little cold, before she went to find a blanket to cover it.
After the sun went down, the temperature dropped significantly, and a layer of mist fell outside, so it felt like tomorrow should be a good day.
However, in the second half of the night, Mo Ci was awakened by the rumbling thunder, she got up and looked out the window, the fog had long been blown away by the wind, and the wind outside was very strong, lightning and thunder.
It's the rhythm of a heavy rain coming soon.
She was not the only one who was awakened by the thunder, Nian Xiaoye and Grandma Jiang Chen also woke up.
"With such broken weather, can we still leave tomorrow?" Nian Xiaoye was worried.
"It's hard to say."
Mo Ci wasn't worried about staying here for a day or two longer, she was worried about something else.
Grandma Jiang Chen looked a little annoyed, she hid in the quilt without saying a word, and continued to sleep.
Mo Ci leaned against the window and watched the weather outside, and after a while, the rain began to rain loudly, and a bolt of lightning came down from above, hitting a big tree on the side of the road.
There was a 'crackling' sound, and the big tree collapsed with a bang, and it collapsed impartially at the gas station.
Generally, gas stations have systematic lightning protection facilities, but accidents are not allowed, and the location of school buses and vans is too close to the gas station, Mo Ci is frightened.
"What's going on?" Nian Xiaoye was awakened again, and suddenly turned over, not only touching the wound on her leg, but also making her eyebrows tighten, and almost falling off the bed.
She looked at Mo Ci in a panic and exclaimed, "What was the sound just now, is it thunder?" ”
"Yes."
"I was scared to death, and I finally fell asleep." Nian Xiaoye took a long breath, and just as he was about to lie down, he saw Mo Ci put on a coat on his body, picked up the key to the school bus and rushed out of the room.
"Mo Ci, where are you going? Mo Ci—"
Nian Xiaoye wanted to catch up, but it was very inconvenient for her to move, so she had to slowly swallow the bed and wake up the others.
She didn't know whose room she was knocking on, but the first person to come out of the room was not the room she was knocking on, but Song Yelin, who lived in the deepest room in the corridor.
"What's wrong?" Song Yelin frowned and walked quickly in front of her.
She pointed to the direction of the stairs and said in a panic: "Mo Ci just ran out with the school bus key, I'm afraid she will leave us alone and run away." ”
