Chapter Twenty-Five: Hit the Black Dog

Hearing the woman say this, Tang Wuzhou was stunned for a moment.

Just half a year ago, he did go on a business trip to Chuannan County. It's just that Tang Wuzhou didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this, as a grassroots civil servant, it was common for him to go on business trips.

Tang Wuzhou is strange now, what kind of person is this woman.

The two had never known each other before, how could she know her name, and why did she know about her business trip to southern Sichuan half a year ago?

Seeing Tang Wuzhou's question written on her face, the corner of the woman's mouth was still with a smile: "Don't ask, you just need to think about it, is there anything special about everything that happened in southern Sichuan?" ”

"...... half a year ago"

Tang Wuzhou lowered his head, trying to bring his thoughts back to six months ago......

When I received the notice of a business trip, it was one o'clock in the afternoon, Tang Wuzhou had just eaten lunch and was napping on the office table.

For grassroots civil servants like them, temporary business trips are commonplace.

Tang Wuzhou rubbed his sleepy eyes, called home to say a word, and then got in the car and went out.

Chuannan County is a national-level poverty-stricken county, in the mountains and mountains in the south, driving from the provincial capital, the distance is more than 300 kilometers, not the whole high-speed, the road is relatively bumpy.

The driver was Lao Duan, the driver of the unit, who had been working for more than 30 years and would retire in two months.

The two walked and chatted all the way, and the car moved smoothly.

When he was bored, Tang Wuzhou asked Lao Duan what he planned to do after retirement, and Lao Duan said that his grandson went to middle school last year, and his wife had been retired for several years.

Tang Wuzhou nodded after listening.

He doesn't envy such a life.

Like Lao Duan, he has been driving a car in the agency for half his life, and he has to calculate the cost of everything, and his salary is only three or five thousand after retirement.

Although, this kind of life is still very good for some people in poor areas, young and old.

But Tang Wuzhou was unwilling.

Life should have infinite possibilities, and he didn't want to live too singlely, so he asked Lao Duan:

"People like us, all their lives, are carried in the agency, waiting for the age of sixty to retire, will this kind of life be too boring?"

Lao Duan smiled: "On this day, I don't know how many people envy it." The recruitment ratio of civil servants is so high now, you are already in the establishment, what do you want? To make a fortune, you have to have that ability, that connections, and that capital. If you don't have anything, don't go to work honestly. ”

Tang Wuzhou smiled bitterly, but was noncommittal.

The car continued to drive forward.

Tang Wuzhou didn't sleep well in the afternoon, and he was very sleepy at the moment. It was already dark outside, and I looked at the mobile phone navigation, and there were still more than a hundred kilometers away from the destination.

At the current rate, it will be at least a little over an hour.

So turning sideways, Tang Wuzhou told Lao Duan to drive down, and then closed his eyes and planned to sleep.

There were various advertisements for treating kidney deficiency whispered on the radio, listening to this sound, coupled with the bumps of the car, Tang Wuzhou quickly fell asleep.

It's just so confused, and I don't know how long it has been.

Suddenly, Tang Wuzhou felt a violent impact!

Fortunately, he was wearing a seat belt, otherwise he would have slammed directly into the windshield and his head would have bled out.

In a panic, Tang Wuzhou asked Lao Duan what was wrong.

Lao Duan was also sweating heavily at the moment, he looked out of the car: "There seemed to be a person standing on the side of the road just now, he waved his hand at me, I ignored him, he actually jumped towards the car all of a sudden, and I rushed straight up before I could step on the brakes!" ”

When Tang Wuzhou heard this, a cold sweat immediately broke out in his vest, and his feelings were shocking.

So, he hurriedly said to Lao Duan: "Get out of the car quickly!" ”

It was completely dark, there were no street lights on this road, there were no stars and moons in the sky, except for the light from the car lights, it was pitch black everywhere.

Around the car, the two searched for a long time, but they didn't see anyone there.

Tang Wuzhou asked Lao Duan: "Did you really see someone just now?" ”

"That's right! At first, I thought he wanted to take a ride, but I ignored him, who knew that he suddenly rushed towards me, and I ......" said, Lao Duan pulled Tang Wuzhou's arm:

"Xiao Tang, we are all in one unit, when the time comes, you will have ......"

Tang Wuzhou's heart was also in a mess, and he was on a good business trip, but such an incident happened.

It's bad luck.

Hearing Lao Duan's voice, he was trembling, and he didn't want to blame Lao Duan, just said: "Don't say so much first, find the person, and see if it's dead or alive." ”

So the two of them each took their mobile phones, turned on the flashlights, and looked around the car.

Tang Wuzhou looked around carefully, and in this barren countryside, there were howls of unknown creatures from time to time, and people heard that their scalps were numb and flustered.

At this moment, the old Duan over there let out a "huh", and then called Tang Wuzhou.

"Don Xiao, come here, I've found it!"

When Tang Wuzhou heard this, he immediately rushed over.

When Tang Wuzhou rushed over, he found that in the grass in front of Lao Duan, there was actually a fat big black dog!

The big black head hadn't completely lost his breath, his stomach was fanning one by one, and his mouth was full of blood.

Seeing someone coming, its head lifted slightly, and its mouth made a few muffled sounds, although its head could not move, its eyes struggled to roll a few times.

Tang Wuzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

"Old Duan, it's been a long time, did you hit this thing?"

"I thought of ...... too"

"Didn't you just say that someone was waving at you?"

"Probably...... I guess I'm wrong. ”

"Did you read it wrong?" Hearing this, Tang Wuzhou felt a little tightness in his chest: "Old Duan, are your eyes bad, you are a driver." It's good that you're retiring, or else...... Tsk......"

Lao Duan made a false alarm and wiped his forehead.

He smiled at Tang Wuzhou and patted him on the shoulder: "Yes, I'm also about to retire, so I won't do this in the future." ”

As he spoke, Lao Duan took one last look at the big dog lying on the ground, and asked Tang Wuzhou:

"This, how?"

"Let's go, are you still calling 120 to call the police?"

The two got into the car again, started the car and left.

After a false alarm, Tang Wuzhou simply didn't sleep, he shook his spirits and turned up the volume of the radio.

The people inside were still gushing about all kinds of products that increased and thickened, and his voice was red and bright, and his saliva was flying.

Tang Wuzhou pondered whether this line of work was very profitable.

Otherwise, it is not profitable not to get up early.

Just thinking about it, Lao Duan, who was driving, suddenly turned the steering wheel, turned the head of the car and drove back and forth.

The speed of the car was a little fast, Tang Wuzhou grabbed the handrail and asked Lao Duan what he was going to do, but Lao Duan said mysteriously: "Where the accident happened just now, we have to go back!" ”
