My Abandoned Oil Town Became a New Frontline - Chapter 55
[Chapter 55 Impossible, absolutely impossible!]
“What are you doing? He is probably tossing food on his earthen pot stove!”
On the side,
the corner of Wang Xin’s mouth curled up slightly.
Xu Xing might be able to do other things in other places, but in that place he really couldn’t think of anything else to do besides eating and sleeping!
“The earthen pot stove? It’s been raining for a few days. The earthen pot stove is probably useless long ago!”
He Shan took over the conversation smoothly.
“Yes! He’s probably just eating compressed biscuits and those snacks.”
“Whatever he is doing. Anyway, I have a hunch that when we find him and reveal our identity and purpose, he will definitely be moved and say, uncle, brother , take it home quickly.”
At this time,
the driver Ma Chong said suddenly.
“Hahahaha! There is nothing wrong with what Lao He said!”
A burst of wanton laughter broke out in the car, and even Liu Ning was no exception.
All joking aside, a few jokes can’t sustain a journey of several hours. It didn’t take long for everyone except the driver, Ma Chong, to narrow their eyes.
At one o’clock and two o’clock in the afternoon,
the driver was changed twice more in the middle of the journey.
Finally at six o’clock in the afternoon, the group arrived at the place where the car was hidden last time.
“Brother Liu, should we keep our cars here?”
Wang Xin turned around and asked.
“Don’t stop here, drive directly to the place where we put the tents and supplies.”
Looking at the slightly familiar Gobi Desert outside the window, Liu Ning’s face showed a trace of indifference.
“Okay!”
Wang Xin nodded.
Although there is only one National Highway 215 crossing the abandoned town, there are also various paths and alleys between the ruins, so driving there is no problem at all!
Last time, I parked the car five kilometers away because I was afraid of being discovered by Xu Xing,
but was it still necessary now?
Obviously not!
Woo.
Wang Xin stepped on the gas and the off-road vehicle accelerated again.
Five kilometers. Four kilometers. Three kilometers. Two kilometers.
Squeak!
But just when the car entered the abandoned town and turned north, the off-road vehicle suddenly braked and stopped.
“What’s wrong?”
A sudden stop made Liu Ning and others subconsciously ask.
“Brother Liu, why are there so many cars in front?”
Wang Xin turned around and said with a puzzled look.
The section of National Highway 215 passing through the oil town is very straight. Standing at the east end, you can see all the way to the west end. At this time, he saw a long row of construction vehicles parked in the center of the town. How could he not be confused.
“Do you have a car?”
Liu Ning and the others in the back row hurriedly leaned out and frowned when they saw the situation in front of them clearly.
“Where did the car come from? And it’s the kind of vehicle that belongs to the engineering team! It shouldn’t be possible. Could it be that a construction team is resting here? What about Xu Xing? I looked at the place where the team was parked, and it seemed that it was where Xu Xing was staying before.”
After a long time,
Liu Ning expressed his guess.
“It’s possible!”
“No matter, let’s go to our observation point to check the situation first. Xu Xing’s safety won’t be a problem.”
“Yeah!”
The sudden arrival of the engineering convoy added some uncertainty to the originally relaxed atmosphere.
Especially Liu Ning,
who didn’t speak again until the moment he got out of the car ten minutes later and climbed up the remaining wall with the binoculars.
“Suck!”
However, when he saw the situation in the distance, Liu Ning took a breath and said nothing.
“What’s wrong? Brother Liu!”
When the four people under the wall saw Liu Ning like this, their hearts suddenly rose to their throats. However, Liu Ning still didn’t respond after shouting a few words,
“Brother Liu. Brother Liu”
“Brother Liu, you should speak. Ah! What happened? Is there something wrong with Xu Xing?”
Finally,
after several people took turns shouting anxiously, Liu Ning finally responded,
“What’s going on? What’s going on? We’ve been away from here for less than ten days.”
He muttered to himself and jumped off the remaining wall, with a face on his face. It’s filled with confusion.
“Brother Liu, over there.”
Seeing this, the four people from He Shan hurriedly gathered around.
“There seems to be some construction going on there. In addition, there seems to be a camping ground and a canteen. There is also a roadside stall in front of the canteen. Many workers are eating there. Xu Xing is serving food to those people.”
Liu Ning told what he saw.
“What? The campsite and the canteen? Xu Xing is still serving food to those workers?”
Upon hearing this,
He Shan’s eyes almost flew out. The next moment, he took the telescope in Liu Ning’s hand and climbed up the remaining wall.
However, He Shan’s voice soon came from the wall,
“Fuck, Caigangfang.”
“Old He, come down and let me take a look!”
Below, Wang Xin and Ma Chong were also anxious,
but soon, the wall There was another voice from the top, “Nima, there really is a canteen!”
A few minutes later,
the five people looked at each other, no longer as confident and wanton as they were before setting off.
“Brother Liu, how could this happen?”
After a long silence,
He Shan couldn’t help but look at Liu Ning.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes this time, he would never believe that Xu Xing’s place could become like this in less than ten days. It was even more incredible than magic.
The most important thing is that now my heart is like a cat scratching its itch, super curious to know what happened during this period of time.
“The devil knows!”
Liu Ning shook his head complicatedly.
He only knows now that the scene in his imagination of Xu Xing crying and begging to be brought back will never happen again, and he also knows that Xu Xing’s next life may be more comfortable than they thought.
“Brother Liu, I just saw that boy Xu Xing running back and forth, busy all the time! Could it be that the canteen is opened by this boy Xu Xing?”
Wang
Xin rubbed his eyebrows and said.
However, as soon as Wang Xin finished speaking, Liu Ning shook his head like a rattle and directly denied this statement,
“Impossible, absolutely impossible! Firstly, Xu Xing doesn’t have the brains at all. Secondly, the money in Xu Xing’s hand has been spent long ago. How can I get the money to buy a colored steel house? “
Then why don’t you ask the chairman? The chairman said that this land is rented in the name of Xu Xing. Judging from the current situation, it is obvious that Xu Xing is here.” It’s for construction work, and a large area of ruins behind the south side of the hut has been cleared out,”
Wang Xin said in a low voice.
“Ask the chairman? Are you stupid! How did Brother Liu reply to the chairman this morning? Then he asked this in the afternoon! Didn’t you put yourself in your pocket?”
Upon hearing this,
it was not just Liu Ningbai. After glancing at Wang Xin, He Shan and Ma Chong also looked at Wang Xin like a fool.
“Then”
Wang Xin didn’t dare to speak anymore.
“Let’s go to the ruins we cleared out first, and then we can find a way to find out more slowly tomorrow.”
Looking back at the direction of the campsite, Liu Ning took the lead in walking towards the place where he camped some time ago.
“Hey, what can we do!”
He Shan and the other three looked at each other, and finally followed them feebly.
However,
twenty minutes later, several extremely depressed voices sounded one after another from the north of the abandoned town,
“Where is my tent? Where are the supplies we have stored?”
