Chapter 144 Don’t Wander Around in the Middle of the Night

Chapter 144: Don’t wander around in the middle of the night

Shen Qi looked at the rainy scene outside and suddenly felt inspired. She directly spread the drawings on the ground, sat down on the ground and started drawing.

One of Shen Wu and He Yi Ning was leaning on the sofa holding a book, while the other was holding a notebook at the bar and doing business.

The three of them were busy with their own affairs, and it was very harmonious.

Just when Shen Qi finished the last stroke, took out her mobile phone to take pictures, and sent the drawings to Charles, the car suddenly braked and stopped.

"What happened?" He Yi Ning immediately looked at Xiaochun.

Xiaochun immediately turned around and went to the cab. After a while, he came back and reported: "There was a heavy rain here a few days ago. The road bed in front seems to have been washed away. The local villagers are building the road."

Shen Qi also looked over.

Sure enough, many people were building roads in the rain on the road ahead.

I can't get through today after seeing it.

At this time, some villagers also came over to say hello: "The roadbed of this section of road has been destroyed, and we can't get through today! We can't leave until the repairs are completed tomorrow!"

Xiaochun smiled and talked to the other party: "Uncle, is there any other way nearby?"

"No, this is the only way into the mountains." The uncle replied: "Are you all city dwellers outside? There are many people coming to the mountains for vacation this season. However, you can't make it through today, so why not find a place to rest for a while? At night, wait until the roadbed is repaired tomorrow before going there. Otherwise, it will be very dangerous!"

Xiaochun looked at the situation on both sides of the road and saw that the landslide was indeed serious. He immediately said to the uncle: "Thank you, uncle. Where can I find a resting place nearby?"

The uncle glanced at the two RVs and said immediately: "We are going home now, otherwise you will follow us later and go to the village to spend the night."

Xiaochun thanked him and came back to report the situation. He Yi Ning turned to look at Shen Wu: "Are there really edible mushrooms here?"

"Of course it's true. I've eaten it!" Shen Wu replied with a matter-of-fact expression: "My mother survived it."

He Yi Ning turned to look at Shen Qi again: "Xiao Qi, do you want to eat?"

Shen Qi smiled and nodded and said, "That's okay. There's no point in waiting here. You have to wait anyway. We might as well go to the village and wait, and we can buy some things by the way."

Since Shen Qi said so, everyone turned around and drove towards the nearby village.

After getting off the road, the road became muddy.

Fortunately, the performance of the car is really great, so I don't feel any bumps at all.

The villagers in front were leading the way, and two giant Iron Man figures were following behind.

It took almost an hour of walking to reach the village.

When Shen Qi got out of the car, she realized how wise her decision was!

It turns out that there are only a few small villages scattered along the hundreds of miles of mountain roads nearby.

These people are not only responsible for the repair and maintenance of this mountain road, but also responsible for nearby safety.

It's the rainy season, and that's when poisonous snakes come out.

It is very dangerous to walk in the mountains without adequate preparation of snake ant repel medicine.

If you choose to wait on the mainland, it will be safe in the car, but it may not be safe when you get out of the car.

The people in the village are also very hospitable. When they see someone driving such a huge RV to the mountains, they all come out to watch the fun.

Shen Qi noticed a phenomenon.

There are no children in the village.

Most of the people living here are over fifty years old, with only a few slightly younger women who are almost forty years old.

The others are just a bunch of old men.

She didn't know why, but Shen Qi always felt inexplicably weird.

Shen Qi couldn't help but stretched out her hand to pull He Yi Ning: "Do you think this village is weird? According to common sense, it is normal for the village to have old people and children, right?"

He Yi Ning had discovered this a long time ago.

However, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Everyone is just staying here for one night.

Besides, it's raining now, so it's impossible to camp, so we can only sleep in the car.

Therefore, He Yi Ning patted the back of Shen Qi's hand and said: "We will leave tomorrow when the road is repaired. If they want money, just give them some money. As long as it can be settled with money, it is not a problem. We are away from home, Try to keep a low profile. Of course, even if they want to rob, they may not be able to stop us. We are fully equipped."

With He Yi Ning's words, Shen Qi felt at ease.

Shen Wu ran back from outside, handed the umbrella to Xiaochun, and said to He Yi Ning and Shen Qi; "This village is really weird. I just visited their village chief, guess what? Their village chief, She turned out to be a beautiful woman in her thirties.”

He Yi Ning frowned slightly and said, "We are in the car, don't get out of the car. If you need mushrooms, we can just pay for them."

As He Yi Ning was talking, villagers came outside and knocked on the car door.

Xiaochun hurried over to socialize.

The villager said with a smile: "The village chief heard that guests are coming and wants to invite the guests to have dinner together."

Xiaochun replied with a smile: "You're welcome. We can just eat in the car."

The villagers' faces, which were still smiling at first, suddenly became tense.

"Do the guests look down on us mountain people?" The other party's tone has become unkind.

Just as Xiaochun was about to explain, He Yi Ning immediately said: "Okay, we will be there later. Please tell the village chief, we will definitely go and bother you."

With He Yi Ning's words, those few people turned around and left with satisfaction.

Shen Qi looked at He Yi Ning in surprise: "Didn't you say..."

"Since the other party has invited me, it would be inappropriate not to go." Before He Yi Ning could speak, Shen Wu crossed his arms and said, "But we can't all go."

He Yi Ning nodded and said, "Yes, we can't all go over. Leave half of the people guarding the car, and the others will go with us. Xiaochun, you follow, and the other assistants and the car's bodyguards will stay."

Xiaochun nodded immediately: "Yes, President."

"When you are out, please call me Second Young Master." He Yi Ning took a deep look at the rain curtain outside: "I always feel that I will see some interesting scenes tonight."

After He Yi Ning made the arrangements, the people who stayed in the car did not start a meal and ate some ready-made food.

Keep the car dark.

No one knew anyone was in the car.

After all, they didn't get out of the car, and no one in the village knew how many people were in the car.

Shen Qi followed He Yi Ning and Shen Wu, holding an umbrella and walking through the muddy rain towards the center of the village.

"Be careful." He Yi Ning carefully protected Shen Qi in his arms, and tilted the umbrella in his hand towards Shen Qi.

Shen Qi felt He Yi Ning's thoughtfulness and concern, and her heart overflowed with warmth.

Shen Wu walked in front, blocking Shen Qi's sight.

When Shen Wu stopped, Shen Qi realized that the destination had been reached.

Shen Qi put away her umbrella and looked up at the huge wooden house.

The entire wooden house is like a giant mushroom.

It is more than three meters high.

This is the first time I have seen a cylindrical house building.

There are several small mushroom-shaped buildings clustered nearby.

It has the posture of many stars overshadowing the moon.

This village is indeed not big, with only a dozen mushroom houses like this in total.

When everyone walked to the door, someone had already come out to greet them.

"It's such a joy to have a distinguished guest at our door. Please come in and invite me." When a middle-aged woman with a nice smile saw Shen Wu, her eyes suddenly lit up.

And when she saw He Yi Ning, her entire expression was not right. It was no longer a matter of whether her eyes were bright or not, but that her eyeballs were stuck to He Yi Ning's face and could not be removed.

I forgot to say the following words.

When Shen Qi saw this woman staring at He Yi Ning so rudely, she coughed slightly in displeasure.

The middle-aged woman woke up from a dream, glanced at He Yi Ning greedily, and then continued: "The village chief has been waiting inside for a long time."

He Yi Ning followed Shen Wu without even looking at her.

When He Yi Ning passed by, the middle-aged woman took a deep breath obviously greedily.

It was as if the air around He Yi Ning had become fragrant and mellow.

Shen Qi disliked this village less and less.

At first I thought it was weird, but now I don't like it in various ways.

After entering the door, Shen Qi saw that this cylindrical house had no rooms, just an empty hall.

There is a high platform in the north. A voluptuous woman wearing scantily clad clothes is leaning on a huge pillow, with a cigar in her mouth. She is evil and rough.

If she guessed correctly, she should be the village chief.

There was a long coffee table in front of her. There were many fruit snacks and a pot of wine on the coffee table.

The house has light-colored floors with several cushions placed on the floor.

It seems that this is where the guests will sit.

"I didn't expect that such distinguished guests as you would come to the mountains. They are really rare." The village chief slowly stood up and walked slowly down from the high platform.

Only then did Shen Qi realize that the village chief was not wearing shoes and was walking on the floor with bare feet, swaying gracefully with every step.

He Yi Ning narrowed his eyes when he saw the way she walked.

This woman is clearly...

He Yi Ning and Shen Wu quickly exchanged glances.

Apparently Shen Wu also discovered something was wrong.

"It turns out that Mr. Shen has so many friends." The village chief walked around Shen Wu and He Yining for a few steps before looking at Shen Qi and said, "Such a beautiful girl is rare in the mountains."

Shen Qi forced a smile: "Thank you for the compliment."

"There's nothing good in the mountains. I'll treat you all with simple meals, so please don't mind." The village chief sat on the ground: "Do you need accommodation? We still have a lot of rooms in the mountains."

"Don't bother, we can just live in the car." Shen Qi responded calmly.

"Oh, really?" The village chief glanced at Shen Qi meaningfully: "Then, don't walk around at night. It's not safe here at night."

Shen Qi smiled softly, nodded and said, "Thank you for reminding me. We will abide by the rules and won't run around."

"Everyone, please take a seat." The village chief raised his hand and said, "People in the mountains are poor and don't have the same high-end furniture as people in the city, but the food in the mountains is still good."

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged aunt who greeted the guests at the door had already brought people over with dishes one after another.

Shen Qi felt that this eating pattern was just like eating a picnic.

The only difference is that the picnic is on wild ground, which is on the grounds of the house.
