Chapter 44: Full of loopholes
Lao Yu was startled and slammed the steering wheel.
The car he was driving immediately rushed to the guardrail next to the mountain road.
And the minibus that hit it head-on hit directly into the hillside.
There was a loud bang, and it was deafening.
Lao Yu on this side held the steering wheel tightly.
At that moment, he felt that the car was no longer under his control, and when he was about to rush down the ditch, he suddenly pulled the handbrake, and the car stopped in time.
Panting heavily, the wipers seemed to be out of order, scraping back and forth quickly, sitting in the cab for a long time, Lao Yu opened the car door sideways.
The front of the car was already hanging on the bank, and the originally calm river was now full of waves.
The water droplets splashed from the boulder hit Lao Yu's face again, making Lao Yu feel like he was in a different world.
Lao Yu got out of the car, and he looked around.
It's strange that the minibus just now is gone.
The loud bang just now is still in my ears.
The huge impact force makes me feel palpitating when I think about it now.
Lao Yu walked a few hundred meters up and down along the mountain road, but never found the minibus that had an accident.
Looking at the front of his deformed car, Lao Yu had to admit that he was unlucky.
He got in the car and checked it, but fortunately, the front of the car was deformed, the car could still be driven, and the repair cost was not very much.
Carefully moved the car up from the edge of the cliff, and Lao Yu parked it on the side of the road. After that, he made a fork in the road and went up the mountain.
Following the road in his memory, Lao Yu walked up the mountain.
The last time the strange man brought him here, it had just rained, and the air was filled with the smell of earth and the sweetness of flowers.
And now, the higher he goes, the more Lao Yu feels that something is wrong.
It's a different place than the last time the weirdo brought him.
When he came here before, the ground was muddy all the way, but at this moment, the mountain road under his feet not only seemed to have been repaired, but also carefully pasted with bluestone slabs.
But in the air, there is a smell of reinforced concrete that can only be found in the city.
I can't tell, and I can't tell.
was wondering, at this moment, there was a huge sound in Lao Yu's ears, like a monster howling.
An ominous premonition rose in Lao Yu's heart, and he quickened his pace.
Following the loud roar, Lao Yu went further, and he saw the crowd.
A lot of people, wearing construction hats and uniforms.
And the monster that made the loud noise was the large excavator next to the workers.
What was once a quiet and peaceful mountain village has now become a huge construction site, full of large mechanical vehicles and workers.
Seeing this, Lao Yu was a little overwhelmed.
He hurriedly stepped forward, but was stopped by one of the staff, Lao Yu asked him what the situation was here, and the man said that it was being built here, and the idlers could not come forward to avoid danger.
"Construction?"
Lao Yu was stunned.
What kind of construction are you doing in this barren mountain and wild mountain?
People can't pass, Lao Yu can only stretch his neck to look over there, only to see that the excavator is knocking down the bamboo houses one by one. It's a mess everywhere.
"What the hell is going to be built here?" Lao Yu was puzzled, so he asked the staff member.
The man smiled and replied, "Our boss has taken a fancy to this place, and plans to push it to build a health club or something, and make money for leisure." ”
Wellness clubs?
It sounds like a good thing, the air here is fresh and isolated, and it is indeed perfect for health.
Lao Yu sighed, he didn't say anything, just looked at the bulldozer again, and saw that the huge mechanical long arm was lifted forward, and the hundred-year-old bamboo house in the mountain village was pushed to the ground.
For a time, dust was kicked up all over the ground.
The entire mountain village has been surrounded, and Lao Yu can't go over, so he can only walk around all the way around to see if he can find anything.
The stream that surrounds the mountain village is still there, but the water quality has become dirty because of the construction process.
He walked all the way along the creek, spent most of the day, walked around the whole east mountain, and not only did he not find the strange man, but he did not even hear a rooster crow.
Lao Yu was very disappointed, it seems that this trip was in vain.
Unconsciously, he walked back to the construction site, and at this moment, he saw a lot of workers on the construction site in front of him, everyone talking to each other, as if they were saying something.
Lao Yu squeezed up and found that there was a dirt pit on the ground, and something was leaning crookedly against it in the pit.
When he got closer, Lao Yu saw that it was actually a stone statue.
When he saw the appearance of the stone statue clearly, Lao Yu recognized it at once, and suddenly, his whole person seemed to be pressed into the cold lake water.
Because, the stone statue carved is the monster with a chicken head and a human body.
The stone statue is dressed in a suit and has a cane in both hands.
Standing tall, the cockscomb rises high, and the appearance is lifelike.
Those black bean-like eyes were staring at Lao Yu without blinking.
The construction worker next to him said: "This place, I heard that it used to be an old cottage, and the people all raised chickens, but a few years ago something happened and the whole clan died. ”
Lao Yu didn't say anything, and looked at the stone statue for a while.
When the others had dispersed, he found the foreman and asked if he could give the statue to himself.
The foreman was hoping that someone would take this thing away, and when he heard Lao Yu say this, he couldn't ask for it. So, the foreman called a few workers to help Lao Yu carry the stone statue to the back seat of his car.
When he said this, Lao Yu's speech was almost there.
The blind man listened attentively.
I'm a little glad that I just got Mei Mei away.
Otherwise, after hearing this, the child probably wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
On this side, Lao Yu's mouth was dry, and he took a sip of tea: "After I moved the stone statue back, it didn't take long for the chicken plague at home to be cured, my chicken farm survived, and the business went smoothly again."
I asked again, "Later, the stone statue has been in your yard and has not been touched?" ”
Lao Yu nodded: "It's true that it hasn't been moved, I use that stone statue as a bodhisattva, as long as it's there, I feel that my chicken farm will be turned over." ”
I sighed, thinking something else.
Lao Yu looked at me: "Tang Xiaofan, I told you the origin of this stone statue, didn't you say that you can save my son, how to save it, how much money it costs, as long as you open your mouth, I can do it." ”
Lao Yu is really different now, and money is money at every turn.
However, I also admit that money is indeed a good thing, but many things are often bad because of money.
I don't know what the old general heard about what the blind man heard just now.
In short, I think his words are full of holes.
