Chapter 456: The Carriage Incident
In a few moments, Stephen was in a tattered carriage with scars and arrow holes.
Wang Yong patted the shriveled neck of the old horse and said to Steve, "This horse is older than you, right?"
Steve jumped out of the carriage and said with a flattering face, "This carriage is our treasure, and we don't usually want to sit on it, so we only use it to pull hay." ”
Roy symbolically kicked Steve, laughing and scolding, "How did you get this old antique, can you still sit here?" ”
Steve rubbed his ass and said with an aggrieved face: "Boss, we only have this one carriage with people, and the rest are trucks that pull supplies." ”
Wang Yong waved his hand to Roy, who was still going to say something, and said, "No need to change it, just this one." After speaking, he beckoned the three Shadow Dancers, who were resting on the side, to get into the car.
The carriage is a European-style four-wheeled carriage, with a boxy carriage that resembles a box on four wheels, but it is spacious inside and easy to get on and off.
Steve was very clever to open the door full of holes first, Wang Yong looked inside, and saw that there was not even a seat inside, but there was a thick layer of hay at the bottom of the carriage.
Wang Yong pointed to the empty carriage and asked angrily, "Do you want us to squat or stand inside?"
Steve looked at the carriage puzzled, and then said with a look of course: "Squatting and standing are up to you, but we used to lie on the hay, and the carriage was bumpy and comfortable after walking, if you don't believe it, try it too, it feels more comfortable than a massage." ”
Wang Yong looked inside the carriage again, and felt that if there were two rows of seats in front and behind, it would be absolutely no problem to sit six people facing each other, but if he walked inside, he could put down three people at most, so he said to Ying Wu very generously: "You sit inside." Try it more than a massage. ”
Shadow Dance asked with concern, "What about you?"
Wang Yong looked left and right, then pointed to the driver's position and said, "I'll just sit there and squeeze with Steve." ”
Qingling didn't care so much, pulled Maureen into the carriage, and patted the thick hay without any scruples, and then actually went to the interview to try, and said with a look of surprise: "It feels really comfortable, Shadow Dance, get in the car, you and Maureen can feel it too." Shadow Dance glared at the spirit. Then he got into the carriage, closed the door, and sat in the corner looking at Wang Yong through the arrow hole.
Steve sat in the driver's seat first, holding the reins in his hand and waiting for Wang Yong. Wang Yong waved his hand to Vani and Roy and said, "I'm leaving, you guys are busy." With that, he climbed into the driver's seat. The driver's seat is not big, but it is not small, and it seems a bit big to sit alone, but it is too crowded to sit for two people.
Wang Yong leaned sideways and held the corner of the carriage with one hand, while arching vigorously with his buttocks. He said dissatisfiedly, "Steve, why is your ass so big? ”
Steve symbolically moved his body, and then said to Wang Yong, "You can sit down." Let's go. As he spoke, with a flick of the horse's reins, the old horse pulling the cart galloped away at a leisurely pace at a speed of five kilometers per hour towards the asphalt base.
Wang Yong's posture was really uncomfortable, and when he was about to change his position, he accidentally bumped Steve's right hand holding the reins. The reins on the right side are tightened. The old horse pulling the cart thought that the owner was asking him to go to the right, and after habitually turning the direction, it may be that his eyes are not good. Go straight to the big pit in front of you that has not yet been backfilled.
Seeing this, Steve hurriedly pulled the reins to turn the horse around, and in a hurry, he forgot that there was still a Wang Yong beside him, and when he waved his arms, his elbow was just on Wang Yong's waist, and then he only heard an 'oops', Wang Yong, who was already unstable, fell out of the carriage and landed in a standard dog eating posture.
Fortunately, Steve's hands were quick, and when he saw Wang Yong falling, he hurriedly pulled the carriage and avoided a crushing accident. It is conceivable that if Steve hadn't stopped the carriage and the wheels full of gaps pressed past Wang Yong's body at a speed of five kilometers per hour, no matter how strong Wang Yong's body was, he would have to be injured by the corners of the wheels.
Varney and Roy were watching Wang Yong's carriage, but they saw that the carriage suddenly turned for some reason, and then Wang Yong fell out of the coachman's seat inexplicably. Varney and Roy hurriedly ran over to help Wang Yong, whose face was covered in mud, and when they saw that he was not injured, they burst out laughing.
Steve explained while helping Wang Yong wipe the dirt on his body: "I didn't mean to, I forgot about you in a hurry just now." ”
Wang Yong wiped a handful of mud from his face, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
Shadow Dance had already come to Wang Yong's side at this time, took out a clean cotton cloth and handed it to Wang Yong, and then said to Wang Yong, "You should sit in the carriage with us." ”
Varni laughed and said, "If you're embarrassed, you can ride my horse, but don't fall off again, haha!"
Wang Yong glared at Vani, grimaced at the light spirit who was sticking his head out and looking at him snickering, and let Shadow Dance get into the car, then climbed onto the roof of the car and sat down cross-legged a few times, glanced at Vani and Roy with a smug face, and then said to Steve, "I'll just sit here, let's go." Steve looked at Wang Yong with a look of adoration, and then jumped into the coachman's seat, and after a shout, the carriage started again.
Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Vani suddenly remembered something, and shouted to Wang Yong, who was sitting on the roof of the car: "Ivan, don't forget to hurry up and install the searchlight you said for us." ”
Wang Yong waved his hand without replying and said, "Got it, I'll ask Leo to send someone to install the lamp for you tomorrow." ”
With the conversation between the two, the carriage had already used a distance of more than ten meters, Wang Yong sat on the carriage blowing the cold wind, and muttered in his heart: "Damn, it would be good to be able to return to the base before midnight at such an exciting speed." ”
At this time, three strong workers passed by against a one-foot-thick cement pipe, and after overtaking Wang Yong's carriage, the three of them snickered. The person in front said, "Brothers, did you see that guy sitting on the roof of the car?" You said that there is nothing to show off about sitting in a carriage that has been broken like that, and you are still sitting on the top, and you are not afraid of being struck by thunder." ”
The worker in the middle nodded and said, "That's, it's just, I haven't seen anything so good?"
At the end, the older worker said, "Don't talk nonsense, you two, hurry up and work, don't you see the carriage going so slowly? ”
The guy in front of me said, "Bards, those guys who have nothing to do and like to make up sour poems that don't make sense, and what are they doing here?"
The person in the back said, "How do I know." ”
As the sound of the three people talking became farther and farther away, Wang Yong, who was sitting on the roof of the car, wanted to cry more and more, hearing the gloating laughter in the carriage, and seeing Steve's constantly shaking shoulders, Wang Yong hid his face and cried, feeling that he was embarrassed today and was thrown home.
Twenty minutes later, Wang Yong was finally relieved from his embarrassment, for the already tattered carriage fell apart after crushing a stone not much bigger than an egg, and its glorious life ended.
Wang Yong jumped out of the carriage and helped the three Shadow Dancers out of the carriage, while Steve untied the reins of the old horse and let it go back first, and then stared blankly at the broken carriage with tears in his eyes.
Wang Yong patted Steve on the shoulder and said, "Mourn, it's long overdue to rest." Seeing that Steve was still sad, Wang Yong promised to compensate him for a carriage later, and a smile appeared on Steve's face.
As usual, Wang Yong stood in the middle of the road, forcibly stopped a carriage that was going to the asphalt Huji to pull supplies, and hitched a ride as Vani, which can be regarded as rushing back to the asphalt Huji base before dinner.
After entering Neihu Pass, Wang Yong and others did not get out of the car, but went to the logistics warehouse to find the deputy director of logistics, Lan Xi, after explaining the intention, Lan Xi took Wang Yong and others to find a carriage in a pile of rags that was not much newer than the one that had just been scrapped, and a skinny horse of the same age as the old horse was compensated to Steve, Steve was not picky, and drove the rickety carriage back happily humming a small tune.
Mo Lin, who has been silent, has gained a lot today, especially her impression of Wang Yong has changed a lot, Wang Yong's cheerful and optimistic personality, as well as his approachability, whether the other party is an ordinary soldier or the most inferior laborer, Wang Yong can laugh and laugh and chat with them, which makes Mo Lin feel that Wang Yong is very different from other nobles, and she is more and more curious about Wang Yong.
Looking at Steve's satisfied departing figure, Wang Yong muttered to himself: "Alas, he is still too poor, and even those who are engaged in logistics are almost the same as picking up rags." Lancey was speechless for a while.
Shadow Dance smiled and said, "Boss, have you seen where the logistics can be extravagant enough to use space equipment to transport materials? It's not that we're too poor, it's that we don't have enough time to develop. ”
Wang Yong left the logistics warehouse with Shadow Dance, Light Spirit and Maureen with the fart, Wang Yong looked at the sky and said, "It's almost time to eat, let's go, let's go to the cafeteria first and wait for Maury and David, and have a good meal in a while, which can be regarded as practicing for them." ”
Maureen asked, "What about Master Regan, aren't they going?"
Shadow Dance then spoke, "You guys go to the cafeteria first, I'll go find Reagan and them." ”
Wang Yong nodded and said, "It's okay, but you have to come over quickly." Shadow Dance's expression was unnatural for a while, she didn't object or agree, she turned around and left without saying anything.
Wang Yong knew that Shadow Dance was still apprehensive about the terrible meal that the cooks had made, and it was estimated that he would not be able to go to the cafeteria for a while, so he shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and walked to the canteen in the residential area with Light Spirit and Maureen.
