Chapter 42: Delay in the journey, intimate comfort

The father and son reluctantly sent us out of the gate. The two horses started walking, and the van started slowly, with sadness, parting mood, nostalgia and intoxication for this prairie, and that

Sincere wishes from those who care about each other.

Uncle Fangzhuang and Xiao Ning kept waving at the door. Xiaoning cried again. Uncle Fangzhuang put his hand on Xiaoning's shoulder and stared blankly in the direction of the van. Suddenly, he raised his hand and wiped it from the corner of his eyes.

Wipe it, and then raise your hands high to say your final goodbyes to us...

We couldn't bear to look back in the direction where the father and son were standing. Suddenly, we felt that after we left, only Fang Fang Shu and Xiao Ning were left in the whole grassland. The grassland was retreating, getting farther and farther away from us, and Fang Fang Shu's yurt was boundless.

The wilderness becomes more and more blurry. A beautiful and pleasant dream slowly wakes up in such a rapid regression and slowly turns into a memory...

This time in Inner Mongolia will always be unforgettable for us. We couldn’t bear to leave Uncle Fangfang and Xiaoning, and we couldn’t bear to leave this vast grassland. But there is no such thing as a banquet in the world. After a short pause, we still have to embark on the journey south.

, to accept one severe challenge after another.

The boss and I were riding horses, holding long knives and war hammers to clear the way in front, while the fourth boss drove the car and followed closely behind with the others. Today’s journey is very long, and we need to leave this uninhabited grassland before dark.

Go out and find a place to stay. Go south along this road and return to the highway intersection where you met Xiaoning that day. Not far to the west, you should reach a certain city. The markings on the map are not very clear.

The route can only be roughly inferred by ourselves, but based on the estimated distance, Fuxin should be the first to arrive.

Fuxin is a beautiful small city. Because it is rich in coal and agate, it was once awarded the title of "Coal Capital" and "Agate City". Although the area is not large, it has a long history and picturesque scenery. The reason why I am very fond of this place.

I am familiar with it because I studied here for my undergraduate degree. Later, I applied for a graduate degree at my current university and left this lovely city.

The distance from here to Fuxin is about 300 kilometers, and it takes more than three hours to drive. We can definitely get there before dark. But now we are riding two horses, and the horse's physical strength is limited. If we keep running these 300 kilometers,

The two horses would run to death if they didn't get it right. In order to keep up with the speed of the horses, Laosi controlled the throttle and gear as low as possible and slowed down the car. In this way, we stopped and went, and the whole day

In that time, we have only advanced a total of sixty kilometers.

It was getting dark, and everyone felt very frustrated. Unexpectedly, the two horses they had led had become a burden on the road. They originally planned to find a decent place to settle down for the night after arriving in the city, but now they can only stop halfway.

, spent the night in the car. After a day of running around, the two horses became very hungry and tired. As soon as they stopped, they ran to the lawns on both sides of the highway and ate.

"When we came out, we shouldn't have taken away these two horses." Chen Hongyan said bluntly. She had been unhappy with the intermittent schedule all day, and she immediately expressed her inner complaints. "You two grown men, you must

With such heavy and long broken knives and broken hammers, can't you just tie them to the carport and drive away? At the current pace, it will probably take years and years to reach Yunnan." She pulled out the steel knife.

, frowning, and slashed twice in front of him, he must be blaming us in his heart and not even bothering to look at us.

The boss and I stood there helplessly, looking at the two poor horses and the direction we were walking in, and immediately began to regret and blame ourselves. Ever since we learned to ride horses on the grassland, the boss and I have been as if we were possessed.

, stuck to the horse all day long, coupled with the ability to practice fighting on horseback, carrying a long sword and war hammer, killing zombies everywhere, I suddenly felt like a heroic general in ancient times, driving a war horse, galloping on the battlefield, and taking advantage of the enemy.

The enemy's heads were caught in the chaos. The two horses saved the lives of two of our brothers in the battle at Binshui Slope. If it hadn't been for them at that time, we would have been buried among the corpses. Based on this alone, we also

No matter what, we don’t want to be separated from the two horses. Chen Hongyan’s words are not unreasonable. Weapons can be tied to the roof of the car. This is not enough to be a reason for us to choose to ride on the road, but it is just a cover for us to take away the two horses.

That's it. Our compassion has brought trouble to everyone, which makes us feel ashamed. After Chen Hongyan said this, we felt even more sorry for everyone, especially Jiayi and Xiaomo.

"Hong Yan, please stop making things difficult for them..." Jiayi suddenly spoke and gently held Chen Hongyan's arm.

"Silly girl, you're still speaking for them now. Your old man had the heart to delay it for so long just for a horse! It seems he doesn't intend to help his wife find her parents!" Chen Hongyan hadn't waited for Jiayi.

After finishing speaking, he took over the conversation, then looked back at Jiayi, her tone softened slightly, but her attack on me did not weaken at all. Her character is like this, bold and domineering, she likes to fight against injustices, punish the strong and support the strong.

weak.

Chen Hongyan's words were entirely for Jiayi. She had experienced the pain of losing her family, so she didn't want Jiayi and Xiaomo to repeat his tragedy. Jiayi was very grateful to Chen Hongyan for her kindness, but she also understood the unspeakable secrets of my boss and me.

Along the way, it was Jiayi who cared about the two horses the most, reminding everyone from time to time to stop and let the horses rest, because like us, she was grateful to these two loyal Mongolian horses, who saved her husband's life.

"Oh, Hong Yan~~ don't be angry! I know you are doing it for my own good, that's why you are angry with them..." Jiayi smiled and hugged Chen Hongyan's arm mischievously, shaking it.

His big eyes looked at her, and his long eyelashes blinked, like a cute child. "Don't be angry with them. Those two horses saved their lives. They can't abandon the two horses now."

Leave the horses alone! Besides, those two horses, one black and one white, look so beautiful, let them go with us, they can still ride on to protect us!"

"Then aren't you in a hurry to find your family? If we continue like this, it will take at least sixty or seventy days."

"Well...slow down, just slow down. The zombie virus has been out for many months. If your family is safe, it will be fine now. We all survived together, so we should understand each other.

Yeah! Xiaomo and I are extremely grateful that you are willing to help me and Xiaomo find our family. As for how quickly we can find our family, Xiaomo and I have never asked for it. We just hope that everyone can live in peace.

Being able to be together happily...that's enough."

Jiayi's words were thoughtful. She expressed her gratitude to everyone and her beautiful vision for the future. Her eyes shone with something happy and sad, which made Chen Hongyan suddenly feel soft. Chen Hongyan wiped

I wiped the moist corners of my eyes and raised my eyes hard, for fear that the thing that meant sadness or sympathy would accidentally slip down.

"Sister Hong Yan~~" Jiayi's voice became even louder, and the listeners couldn't help but get goosebumps all over their bodies. She stretched out her hand, gently wiped the wet corners of Chen Hongyan's eyes, and then leaned her head against Chen Hongyan's.

on the shoulders.

"Oh! Isn't it disgusting?" Chen Hongyan quickly shook Jiayi's hand away in horror, with an awkward smile on her lips. She couldn't stand Jiayi's move. She was a woman, so she had to behave better than

Men are more masculine. "Huh~~ don't do this with me, just go with your old man!...Okay, just pretend I didn't say anything just now!"

Chen Hongyan put the two knives into the scabbard, turned around and sat in the carriage. Suddenly, she stuck her head out and shouted to me: "Zhao Tianlong! Listen to me, you must treat my sisters well in the future."

, if you let me know that she was bullied, watch how I deal with you!" She glared at me fiercely, then picked up a magazine and read it absently...

It seems that Jiayi's persuasion worked. In order to help the boss and I get out of trouble, and at the same time ease the cooling atmosphere, she could only try to persuade Chen Hongyan like this. I looked at her gratefully, and she smiled at me, and then said she was embarrassed
