Halfway through the drive, the panda suddenly noticed a light not far ahead.
This neighborhood is very deserted, so once there are lights, there is no doubt that it must be the so-called "real estate project" that Hong Ming invested here.
It was getting late, and we even suspected that we had lost our bearings, but when we saw the lights, we rekindled our hope. I was so excited that I turned off the unreliable navigation system and drove towards the lights.
Now that we have the lights to guide us, we certainly won't get lost.
The car rumbled and drove slowly around the mountain road, but when I was halfway there, I felt desperate, watching the mountain run dead horses, it seemed that the lights were not far away, but the car drove a full two kilometers out, and the lights were still in the place just now. The straight-line distance between us doesn't seem to have diminished, which is frustrating.
In the blink of an eye, we crossed a mountain beam, and looked out over the hillside, the distant lights flickering and still at the same distance from us โ it was simply crushing and frustrating.
I simply parked the car first, and then took out the address that Lao Jiang gave us again. It doesn't seem like it's going to work just by the lights, it's not a good idea, but the navigation system is still important.
So I restarted the navigation system, but then the crash happened: there was no network in the mountains, and there were no offline data packets in the car's navigation system, so the navigation system completely "struck" and we were in a dilemma.
Looking ahead, the lights loom and can't guide us to the right path at all, and when we look back, the navigation system doesn't work, and it becomes difficult to return the way we came, and we are stuck in the same place!
In such an embarrassing situation, everyone was a little panicked. The night general fluttered into the air, raised his eyes and said: "Otherwise, I'll do a human navigation for you, I'll fly in front, you follow me, watch my guidance, so at least you won't get lost......"
General Night's proposal was the only way we had to do it now, and in desperation, we had to let General Night lead the way.
The car continued to move forward, the Night General staring at the lights in front of us, and we staring at the Night General in the air. That way, the journey was a little smoother, and at least we knew we were not on course.
Due to the rugged mountain road and the unfamiliar place, the speed of the car was limited, and it took more than 20 minutes for us to bypass a mountain beam.
But at this moment, something even more embarrassing happened to us, just a turn, and the lights in the mountains in the distance suddenly went out!
There were still more than a dozen oil lamps lit before, but now the space in the distance suddenly fell into darkness. This caught us off guard, but we couldn't do anything about it. Without a guiding light, we are in a dilemma.
The Night General flew down from the sky helplessly, spread his wings, and told us that there was nothing he could do about it, and that we could only ask for more blessings.
Panda and I are also frowning, and neither of us can say a perfect solution.
In desperation, the only solution is to try to move forward according to the remaining memories, anyway, the big deal is to rest in place and wait until the sun comes out the next day to continue moving, which will not be wrong.
So General Night got back into the car, and we continued on, stumbling in the direction the lights had been on.
Without the guidance of distant lights, our path is even more difficult.
After barely holding on for more than ten minutes, we finally couldn't hold on anymore and stopped on the spot. There were so many cliffs on the mountain road that we were in danger of falling if we weren't careful, and we didn't want to die before we were even rewarded for our ambitions, so we decided to rest for the night.
Parking the car, we put down our seats and lay down.
The mountains are quiet and serene, and the roadside is full of birds and insects, and the environment is pleasant. It's just that the middle of the night in the deep mountains and old forests is always gloomy, and there are often ghosts in these places, so I was lying in the car, and I only felt cold and frightened......
But after thinking about it, I am also the orthodox descendant of Xuanmen, and after such a long time, I have also practiced the ability to catch ghosts, so I should no longer be afraid of these demons and monsters. Thinking about it this way, I am also down-to-earth.
As the minutes ticked by, sleepiness hit me and I almost fell asleep.
However, at this moment, a wonderful thing suddenly happened, only to hear the sound of footsteps not far away, listening to the movement This is not the footsteps of some animal, but the footsteps of people. Judging from the footsteps, it should be just one person, this guy is still a little dishonest when walking, kicking the stones on the road from time to time, rubbing the soles of his shoes against the ground, making a "poof" sound.
The panda and I quickly rolled over and looked out through the car glass.
I saw a person on the path not far away, wearing the clothes of a construction worker, a pair of rubber shoes, lowering his head and tugging on the belt of his trousers, and slowly walked into the bushes.
It looks like a guy who sneaked out to pee in the middle of the night, but since he was able to walk here, it means that Hong Ming's construction site is not too far from here.
There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them.
Unexpectedly, we stumbled along the way and finally managed to reach our destination. Panda and I exchanged glances, woke up the night general who was sleeping in the back seat, and gently pushed the car door open, and lurked towards the worker's location.
The worker was also clumsy, and he ignored such a big car as us, which may have something to do with the black body of the car, which made it easier for us to do it.
Walking slowly along the bushes, the panda and I deliberately avoided the branches on the ground and did not make any sound.
After a few steps, the sound of running water gradually came from the distance, and at the same time, the smell of stench came from the ...... This comrade worker is really solving personal problems, and it sounds like he has been holding back for a long time.
I glanced at General Night, who took the lead in flying towards the worker, screaming twice and locking on to the target in advance.
Then the panda and I hugged each other and rushed directly from behind, pressing the comrade to the ground before he had time to put on his pants, and he cried out loudly in fright:
"Grandpa Mountain God, help! I was wrong! I'm not supposed to pee on your turf! โ
Hearing this, the panda and I couldn't cry or laugh, I quickly pulled him up, and said loudly: "Don't cry in a hurry, let me tell you, we are not mountain gods, we are all normal people...... Come, put on your pants, and let's have a good talk. โ
Since the master worker dared to come here alone in the middle of the night to pee, it means that he is not a timid person. He looked up at us and felt that we really didn't look like mountain gods, so he calmed down, lifted his pants tremblingly, and fastened his belt.
The panda and I dragged him to the side of the road and sat down, and the master worker saw that the two of us did not look like bandits blocking the road and robbing the road, nor did we look like murderers who came to the mountains to throw corpses. โ
I smiled, shook my head and said, "You look like we are here, where do you look like you're from a tourist?" We're here for your project here. โ
When the worker heard this, his expression changed greatly, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Who are you...... Someone from the Forestry Department? โ
I smiled, shook my head again, and said, "Don't worry, we are not from the relevant departments, but we have a very close relationship with your boss Hong Ming." Let's introduce yourself. โ
With that, Panda and I asked the worker.
His name is Hu Zhongguo, and everyone on the construction site calls him Lao Hu, who is an old employee in the construction team, and he can be regarded as having a certain prestige. This construction team was tendered at the beginning of this year, and Hong Ming is their customer.
As for this project, Lao Hu said that it was very strange, from the time he took over the project to the present, Lao Hu has never seen what this project is going to do. The construction drawings are in the hands of the project manager and a limited number of leaders of the project team, and ordinary workers cannot see them. Lao Hu only knows that this project is to drill and dig holes every day, and then drill and dig holes...... It's like a mountain mouse.
I listened to the sincerity of the old nonsense, and I already had a plan in my heart.
I asked Lao Hu, did Mr. Hong Minghong come to see the whole project after handing it over to you?
Lao Hu thought about it, shook his head, and said that he hadn't done it yet, but it was said that he had plans to come over for a field trip in the past few days......
I was shocked and whispered, "Oh no, we're running out of time." โ
