Reborn in the fiery age, I am a salted fish in the mountains

Chapter 239 It’s been a smooth journey

"What were you doing in the hotel just now?"

The truck headed west.

On the next mountainous road, Xiao Ma, a bored and idle assistant, wiped guns and ammunition and asked Han Xiaokang, "People are fighting inside, why don't you run away quickly?"
When my master and I were running, we also paid attention to Comrade Xiaokang, but we couldn't see you and thought you ran away first! "

"Hey, who was that person who came out of the hotel later? It seems like he should be a high official, right?" Xiao Ma asked.

"do not know."

Han Xiaokang replied seriously, "At that time, I really couldn't find a table to eat, so I ran over and squeezed with them."

"Then did he say anything to you?"

Xiao Ma was very curious, "Look at his appearance, he has more than a dozen cars! He must be a great official. As long as Xiaokang can build a better relationship with others, your future will be bright!"

The future is bright?
Haha, if you don't get hurt, it's just a high incense burner.

While he was chatting with Xiao Ma, he had a chance to have a good time and not a good time to have a good time with him.

Han Xiaokang chewed carefully, every word he and the elder had said before.
This time, the reason why I took such a big risk was that I had to squeeze through and have a few words with the elder.

In fact, it came from Han Xiaokang's conscience.

You clearly know that if you have any involvement with the other party, it may bring disaster to yourself in the future!
But in the end, Han Xiaokang chose to do that. This was not because he wanted to be in the limelight, or because he wanted to take advantage of others and soar into the sky.

Han Xiaokang still knew how much he weighed. He didn't have the ability to ask for help. If he flew too high, he would be in a worse position in the future.

Soaring up to [-] miles, I am afraid that I will not be killed in the future! !
People say that a mantis' arm blocks the car, which is called overestimating one's capabilities. In fact, in front of the rolling wheel of history, a single individual still wants to be a mantis?
Hey, that would be overestimating yourself. In fact, you are not even an ant! !

But Han Xiaokang, an ant, finally chose to face him resolutely. This is because his conscience still exists in his bones.

Just because Han Xiaokang knew clearly in his heart: If he were still a passerby during this encounter,

I'm afraid that in the following years, my conscience will feel uneasy every night.

Now that I have paid and worked hard, no matter what the result is in the future, at least my heart has been redeemed.

Then you will have no regrets and your heart will be at peace.
However, if you want to save others, you must first protect yourself, Han Xiaokang understands.

So during the conversation with the elders just now, Han Xiaokang deliberately contradicted the other party most of the time and deliberately tried to screw him up.

Even sometimes, Han Xiaokang was still deliberately teasing, and the anger in the hearts of the staff nearby
These various behaviors are actually attempts to protect themselves and add a layer of protection to themselves in advance.
As for whether this protective cover is useful in the end, and what is the effect?
This is beyond Han Xiaokang's control.

Just leave it to your fate!
If it really doesn't work, run south. All the way south, all the way south, run and run until you reach the seaside in a foreign country.

As for being in a foreign country, unfamiliar with the place and language, how can I survive?

Han Xiaokang is not worried about this.

After all, my face looks pretty good, right?
The car drove forward for more than 100 kilometers, stopped halfway, had a meal at a roadside restaurant, and then continued westward.

However, from this moment on, Master Wang's expression became extremely nervous!
"Comrade Xiaokang, you drive, and I'll be on guard. Xiao Ma, you carry the rifle and go inside the carriage, and the surrounding tarpaulins are tightened and tied up.

Who dares to cut the tarpaulin and forcefully pick up the car? Next, do you need me to teach you what to do? "

Xiao Ma looked solemn, "No need, master, I will shoot next to him."

Master Wang snorted coldly, "What if the other party still wants to force him into the car?"

Xiao Ma gritted his teeth, "Then I'll kill him!"

"Well, remember, as long as you are soft-hearted, we will be the ones who die in the end."

With that said, Master Wang stopped the car, jumped out of the cab and switched places with Han Xiaokang.

When Han Xiaokang officially took over the steering wheel, Master Wang took out his tortoise box and wiped it carefully, "Comrade Xiaokang, remember it for me!

Next, no matter who is waving for us to park, you must ignore it and just rush over! "

“From now on, we won’t leave until after 9 a.m. and find a place to stay before 4 p.m.

Don't start too early in the morning, pick up the car early in the afternoon, and don't drive late at night.

And whether you want to stay or eat, you must go to the county town. Don't stay in small towns, let alone enter other people's villages. "

Han Xiaokang had vaguely heard that during this period, some remote areas did have something like that.

Bring some walnuts, fruits and vegetables to buy and sell by force; or there is a hole in the road, and the surrounding villagers gather there, waiting to help push the cart.

Of course, their carts are not free, but they charge a very high fee.

But the problem is that they won't give a price before pushing it. Instead, they say it nicely: Oh, how can you not face difficulties like this when you are away from home?
It's okay. I'm a fellow villager, so I can help you. What's the point?
When the cart is pushed, the driver will naturally have to say a few polite words to express his willingness to reward those who came to help.
This is all human nature and what should be done.

But often at this stage, if there is no accident, it is time for an accident to occur.

Originally there were only five or six men squatting on the roadside, but by this time, the number of people often behind the cars had increased to 30.

Many drivers encounter this kind of pitfall, and they originally thought that it would be just a matter of spreading cigarette smoke and saying a few words of thanks.

But the fact is, it’s not like that
As the truck headed west, the road ahead became increasingly rough and in poor condition.

It is said that this transportation artery was the main road leading to the rear areas of Bashu from Sanxiang during the Anti-Japanese War.

This road has been built there since the old days, but it has not been completely completed until now.

It has been delayed for decades, and I don’t know how many people have been fed along the way.

When the truck passed a small town, the road conditions ahead became worse: the trees on both sides of the road blocked the sun, and even in such hot weather, everyone felt chilly after the truck drove here.

On both sides of the road, from time to time, nearby mountain people would sell walnuts, peaches, cucumbers and other things.

The road is inherently narrow.

And due to the obstruction of dense trees, the view is also very poor.

In addition to these mountain people, when they go down the mountain to sell things, they often bring their children and local dogs with them.

Most of these people are illiterate.

Moreover, they seem to be a bit out of touch with modern civilization, and they live casually and as they please.How can you have any traffic awareness and safety awareness?

Just place baskets, baskets and other things in a dry and cool place on the roadside, no matter whether there is a sharp turn or how much road surface it takes up.

Anyway, it’s whatever is convenient.

Since these people come down from the mountains early to sell things, and usually bring rice, bacon, peppers, etc., they will also work together to make lunch on the roadside.

a time.

The entire narrow road was filled with smoke on both sides, and groups of local dogs were playing and playing unscrupulously.

Children were playing games and throwing stones on the roadside.

Sometimes while running, they would suddenly turn sharply and cross over to the opposite side of the road without warning.

It is really hard to guard against.

No, a truck with [Gui 02-157] in front accidentally ran over the hind legs of a local dog.

Originally, the pressure was not very serious. There were many small potholes in the road, and the local dogs could escape quickly.

Maybe the claws on his hind legs were crushed, bleeding a little, and he was limping.

The driver and his assistant got out of the car to check the situation. Opening the door would cause big trouble!

A group of women gathered around and began to accuse the driver and assistant in their local dialect.

When it comes to being angry, these women are slobbering.

Fingers were still poking at people's bodies, and some even reached out to grab people's collars and pull them.
The driver and his assistant panicked!

Just because they can't understand a word of what the other party says, it makes it impossible for people to defend themselves and communicate effectively with the other party.

You should know: In this place, there is a saying that "people from ten miles apart have different pronunciations."

In other words, even members of the production team who belong to a commune cannot understand what someone from another village is saying.

How can a foreigner understand you?
But maybe, this is the effect they want.

Otherwise, if there are so many people and all of them cannot communicate with outsiders, how can they usually sell things?
Being surrounded by a large group of women, the driver and assistant instinctively reached out to pull each other's hands away.

It doesn't matter if you pull it out, but it will cause big trouble if you pull it out.
"Oh, you didn't say anything about the dog that crushed us, but you still dare to fight with a woman? Are you a human being when you step on a horse?"

After the women have been entangled for a long time, naturally a large number of men will emerge from the mountains and forests.

These people had two-foot-long machetes on their waists, hunting blunderbuss in their hands, navy blue turbans wrapped around their heads, and bare feet.

Chewing betel nut in his mouth, and when he talks with a grin, his mouth is full of betel nut juice that looks like blood, which can scare people!

Seeing this group of men surrounding them, the driver and his assistant's scalps went crazy! !
Now the driver and assistant did not dare to ask the other party to bring the crushed dog over to see the injury so that they could negotiate compensation.

Because their intuition tells them: once they make this request, the dog that is eventually caught will definitely be seriously injured.
At least for the rest of my life, I can't take care of myself, so I can only add more aniseed pepper and Guiping bay leaves at night.

Seeing that he was surrounded by people, he couldn't escape.

The driver and his assistant each had a bad premonition: Even if they don't die here today, they may have to shed their skin!

Just when there was a lot of trouble ahead.

"Go, ignore them!"

Master Wang looked gloomy and said to Han Xiaokang, "I'll get out of the car and open the way. You drive around them and don't stop."

Don't even pay attention to those people who are selling things by handing them to the car window. Even if they are blocking the front of the car, don't worry about it, just drive forward! "

While Master Wang was talking, he took out a bottle of Tuopai Daqu wine, opened the lid and poured it on himself.

After pouring it, he didn't forget to sprinkle some wine on Han Xiaokang.

The entire cab was suddenly filled with a strong smell of alcohol!

At this time, no one cares about this.

"Aren't you afraid of suppressing them?" Han Xiaokang asked.

"No, you reduce the speed a little, but don't stop."

While the truck was still moving slowly, Master Wang took a sip of wine, then opened the door and jumped out, "They are uneducated and uneducated, but they are not really stupid. These people want money, and they also care about themselves." life."

Han Xiaokang continued to drive forward at a steady speed, his eyes nervously listening to both sides of the road.

Just because those children playing on the roadside are so unruly!
Who knows when they will suddenly run into the middle of the road?
Master Wang got out of the car, still holding the tortoise box in his hand, with his thumb on the firing pin on the butt of the gun, as if he was ready to fire at any time!

I saw him holding a gun, staggering, one foot high and one foot shallow as he walked forward.

From the perspective of others, Master Wang's movements are quite funny, like a fool holding seven in his left hand and eight in his right hand.

The neck is tilted at 45°, and the eyes seem not to be obedient. He glances sideways at the mountain next to him, but his eyes are fixed on the group of people in front of him.

The amount of saliva dripping from the corner of the mouth is about 7 inches.
"Uh uh."

Master Wang didn't arrive, but the wine stall was banging loudly, "Well, uh, please let me know, our vehicle carrying out a special mission is going to pass, who wants to wait for us to kill!"

While saying this, Master Wang also used the hand holding the tortoise box to slash diagonally from top to bottom!
The mountain people, who had originally turned their heads in fear and full of disdain, stepped back involuntarily!

Riding on a horse is so scary
Who knows how well maintained this tortoise box is, which is older than them?Is the mechanical structure still solid?
It is so common for this kind of old gun to misfire, and no one wants to be unjustly killed.
not to mention,
The guy holding the gun is a madman who is angry from both sides, has a thunderous attack on me, has slanted eyes and a crooked mouth, and smells of alcohol all over his body!
How can you argue with a guy like this?

On a horse!
If such people don't stay in the village to guard the village, why would they come out?
This time, Master Wang's sword went smoothly and he drove aside the group of people surrounding the truck in front.

Han Xiaokang only engaged the first gear and hit the accelerator. However, the car shook like chaff, and the black smoke emitted like a black wind monster approaching, roaring "wuwuwu".

With a very even but unstoppable posture, it rumbled smoothly through the crowd and gradually went further away.
Master Wang, who was pretending to be strange, saw this and yelled "Wait for me", then he ran after him!

He ran very smoothly.

How could he look like the fool who pinched seven with his left hand, pinched eight with his right hand, and swept across with one swing, two swings, and three?
