Chapter 45: Determination

After walking nearly ten kilometers, we came across a farm truck coming down from the fork in the road in Dengjiagou to go to the countryside, this time Master Cao did not refuse again, and the two of us sat between a group of sheep pulled to sell, and staggered all the way to Heihezi. Strange to say, I would never have been willing to let me ride in this kind of car before, but now I feel very happy to be able to sit in such a car.

The car walked forward about two or three roads, and suddenly saw a car in front of me parked on the side of the road, the front of which was facing us.

It's the farm truck that just went up from Hewei Village.

Strangely, at the speed of such a car, it could not have turned back from the countryside.

This section is the steepest section on the way back, and there are 60 or 70 degree slopes next to it, which is why the road is relatively narrow.

But the car on the other side was right in the middle of the road, blocking the whole road.

Master Cao's face changed suddenly, and he slammed the window vigorously to stop the car.

"What's wrong?" The driver said with some dissatisfaction.

"Reverse!" Master Cao shouted loudly.

The car on the other side had already started and was speeding towards it.

The driver of our car honked his horn hard, but he didn't slow down at all, but got faster and faster!

"Jump out of the car!" Master Cao shouted loudly.

He threw the two boxes to the side of the road and then dragged me and jumped off.

But the driver was reluctant to leave his car, and he couldn't understand what the car on the other side was doing, but I could clearly see that chaos shrouded the driver in the opposite window, making him accelerate and crash over.

We barely had time to duck to the side of the road when two balls of metal weighing several tons collided with a loud bang.

The car we were sitting in was knocked and turned around, and the sheep flew out and hit the hillwall hard, and both cars were in the middle of the road, and the steam from the tank spewed out, and the cab was shrouded in fog.

My hands and feet were cold, and I didn't know what to do, so Master Cao took the copper coin sword in his hand from the box and took another bronze mirror out.

I followed him to the car, but he nudged me with his hand: "Call the emergency and police numbers!" ”

The things attached to the driver's body just now were gone, the two drivers were not wearing seat belts, their heads were hit on the windshield and the flesh was blurred, Master Cao rescued them from the cab, put them on the ground to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation and artificial respiration, and it took nearly half an hour for the ambulance and police car to rush over from the direction of Heihezi.

The paramedics quickly examined them and carried them on stretchers and pulled them away, but the police left us behind.

"Which of you made the call? Are you two witnesses? A police officer asked. How did a car accident happen? ”

I shook my head, not knowing how to answer, but Master Cao calmly replied, "The car accident had already happened when we passed by. ”

"Really?" The officer looked at us suspiciously, all of us with dirt from jumping out of the car, and a strong smell of sheep from sitting in the flock.

"You're not in the car?" He asked again.

"The car accident had already happened when we came." Master Cao replied again.

The surviving sheep had gathered on the side of the road, bleating and grazing, their eyes looking at us, and there was a strange feeling in their little eyes.

"Where are you going?" The officer changed the way he was questioned.

"We came out of the power station project department and are ready to go to the countryside." There is nothing to hide, we are not locals, they will inevitably investigate to the project department, if we don't tell the truth, maybe we will be suspected.

"Walking?" The officer asked, surprised.

"The car broke down in front." Master Cao replied.

"Wait a minute." The officer said to us, and walked back to the police car, seemingly talking to someone.

After a while he walked back: "Leave your ID number and contact information, and then you can go." ”

It is impossible for such a car accident to be related to us, but who would have thought that it has something to do with us.

Master Cao wrote down his ID number and phone number as usual, and then handed me the notebook.

I saw that under his calm expression, it seemed like a fire was burning.

About two kilometers after walking out, we saw a small wooden house a few hundred meters away from the roadside, which was probably used by the villagers to rest and place farm tools when they were busy farming, and it was now empty.

Master Cao walked over with me.

"We're not going to the country?"

"He was determined to leave us behind, and if we had to go back, we don't know what else would happen on the way." Master Cao replied. "If he can do this kind of thing, then I have no reason to back down, let's see who is stronger!"

Near the wooden house is a flat land with a great view.

Corn had been planted before, but it had been harvested, leaving only a few poles in the field that had not yet been pulled out.

Master Cao made a phone call to Master Lu and told him that he had decided to deal with the sorcerer here, and then began to set up a magic circle around the wooden house with what he had brought.

His face was gloomy, the first time I'd seen him like this since I had known him, and it made me a little afraid to approach him.

I couldn't help much, I could only look around and see if there was anything to eat.

There is a field where potatoes are grown, but it should not be harvested yet, and it is not very large.

I saw that there was no one around, so I dug up a dozen of them and took them back to the wooden house.

"Just dig a fire pit and bury the potatoes in it." Master Cao said as he moved his hands. "Look at the feng shui, there should be a spring over there, you go get some water."

I couldn't find anything to hold water around, so I had no choice but to take two plastic bags and walk over there.

The clouds in the sky were gathering, and it looked like it was going to rain, and as I walked, I was anxiously thinking about what was about to happen, and suddenly I felt a little empty in my heart, and finally I couldn't help but take out the phone and call home.

"Sun Yang? What's wrong? Dad asked on the other end of the phone.

My nose was so sore that I almost cried.

"It's nothing, I'm just asking you guys how are you doing these days?"

"What will your mother and I have? It's you, how about the hands? Okay, no? Have you ever changed your dressing? ”

Tears finally flowed out, and I was afraid that I would not be able to hold back my tears on the phone, so I hurriedly said a few words and hung up the phone.

There was a small spring not far from the direction that Master Cao pointed out to me, so I filled both plastic bags and hurried back.

Master Cao was already sitting next to the fire.

I handed him a bag of water.

"Master Cao, it's all done?"

He nodded and said, "Lu Lou is on the way, and it will take five hours at most." ”

This calmed my mind a little, and we waited a little longer, and then we dug the potatoes out of the fire and ate them half-baked.

"I never thought potatoes would be so delicious!" I said as I ate.

Master Cao laughed.

A dozen small potatoes were barely enough to fill our stomachs, and we sat in the small cabin, which was the center of the magic circle arranged by Master Cao, and there were many charms pasted on the wooden house, which gave me some sense of security.

Master Cao gave me the bronze mirror, on which a charm had been drawn with cinnabar.

"You just have to stay here for a while, and if something comes near you, you can use this mirror to point at it." Master Cao said. "Don't worry, my Lao Cao is not a nobody in this industry, but this Su Cha, I don't know where the bull ghost snake god appeared, watch me beat him back to his original form!"

I burst out laughing.

Master Cao and I chatted about his previous thrilling story, and the sky unconsciously darkened.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew outside, and the charms on the wooden house were blown loudly, as if they were about to be blown away.

Master Cao stood up.

"Here we are."

He said calmly.
