Wang Yi was always driving on the highway, and my neck was not in good condition. I never dared to move too violently, so I could only maintain one position.
After several hours of driving, we finally got off the highway.
It's true as Wang Yi said, the temperature plummeted after getting off the highway, and the cold air hit instantly.
What troubles us the most is that the road we usually take is only accessible from one side due to road construction.
Moreover, we asked the road construction master and he said that there are still several such situations ahead, and we will probably have to go to Meigu County tomorrow morning.
I was surprised, but Wang Yi didn't think it was anything at all, as if he was already used to it.
Later she told me that this road is constantly under construction because flash floods and landslides are prone to occur here.
Fortunately, she knew a shortcut, but it had to climb a mountain and the road was not easy to walk, but it was better than being stuck on the road.
Before deciding to take this road, Wang Yi told me several times that even locals rarely walk on this road, not only because the road is narrow and requires climbing over mountains, but more importantly, there have been several accidents on this road.
I am confident in my driving skills, and even more confident in my four-wheel drive vehicle, but I was a little nervous when Wang Yi said this.
But if you don't take risks, you have to gamble here for a night, and you may not even make it.
After weighing it for a while, I finally decided to take the mountain road.
Under Wang Yi's guidance, the car turned around and drove into a large mountain. As the car climbed slowly, the temperature gradually dropped.
Moreover, you can clearly feel that the altitude is rising, the power of the car is not as sufficient as before, and you can even clearly feel that there is a lack of oxygen.
It's really snowing on the mountain, even halfway up the mountain. The road is covered with snow dregs, and all the surrounding trees are covered with a layer of snow-white.
This is not my first time driving in this kind of environment. I already have quite a lot of experience. Fortunately, this is a four-wheel drive vehicle and the power is not bad.
Wang Yi said to me: "Come on, just climb over this mountain."
"It's not that scary, and the snow isn't too heavy." I said with a smile.
"You haven't reached the top of the mountain yet, you will know when you get to the top of the mountain."
"We'll be there soon." After saying that, I sneezed.
Cold, really cold.
The outside temperature displayed on the dashboard is only 0 degrees. What kind of concept is this!
And I'm only wearing the sweatshirt I wore when I set out in the morning, not even a jacket.
At this time, Wang Yi said to me again: "Please pull over first and put on your down jacket."
I nodded, parked the car, and put on the down jacket I bought before leaving the city.
Fortunately, Wang Yi reminded me, otherwise it would have been really cold.
The car continued on the road, and the further it drove up the mountain, the snow became heavier and the fog became thicker and thicker, with visibility being almost only 20 meters.
Fortunately, there are not many cars on this road. Once a car comes from the opposite direction, it would be difficult to meet the car on such a narrow road.
The car gradually drove to the top of the mountain without oxygen.
The snow on the top of the mountain is like white petals, and also like trouble that cannot be escaped.
Snow almost completely covered the road, and there was a vast expanse of white everywhere. The temperature displayed in the car instantly dropped to minus 4 degrees Celsius.
In the plains, it is already spring, but here it is even a cold winter.
I kept holding the steering wheel with both hands and looking intently at the front of the car.
But gradually, I found that I couldn't tell where was the road and where was the cliff.
Because there are no guardrails on this road, which means that if I am not careful, I will fall off the cliff!
This is no joke, although this is not the first time I have driven a vehicle in this extreme situation, and I have experienced even worse situations than this.
But it would be really fatal if there were no guardrails, because the road is covered with snow and everything looks the same.
Suddenly I didn't dare to drive any further. It was too dangerous. I didn't dare take Wang Yi to take the risk.
Wang Yi also realized it, and she immediately complained to herself: "If I had known that the top of the mountain was like this, I shouldn't have told you to take this road."
"Don't worry, why are you panicking? Our car still has plenty of oil."
"There has rarely been such heavy snow here before, and I didn't expect it. I'm sorry!"
"Don't be so depressed. Let's rest for a while. When the snow lightens and the fog clears, I'll probably be able to leave."
But God is just kidding me. Not only is the snow not light, but it is getting smaller and bigger, and the fog is getting bigger and bigger, so heavy that I can hardly see anything clearly.
There was no mobile phone signal at all on the top of the mountain. During the waiting time, I was worried and bored.
The most fortunate thing is that there is still enough oil in the tank and we can keep the heater on.
If we don't have enough oil, we will freeze to death here.
"It's all my fault. It would be better if I didn't take this path." Wang Yi began to blame himself again.
I smiled sarcastically and said to her: "Why are you always so hard on yourself? This is why I decided to leave!"
"But if I didn't tell you about this road, it wouldn't be the case."
"Don't worry, your mentality was so good before, why is it so bad now?"
"Because it was my fault, I shouldn't have let you take this path."
"Look, look, please don't blame yourself, okay? No matter what happens, we can face it together."
Wang Yi stopped talking. She raised her head and looked out the window, sighing and saying: "The snow seems to be getting heavier and heavier, and it won't stop at all!"
"Then just stay in the car. Don't worry, the place where I park is quite spacious."
Time continues to pass minute by minute, and the snow is still not getting lighter. And as the night falls, the temperature drops again, and the snow becomes heavier.
I was quite optimistic before, but when the sky gradually darkened, I became less optimistic.
Because if it gets dark, even if the snow stops and the fog clears, we still won’t be able to walk.
Because the road was covered with snow, the guardrails were still invisible, and visibility at night was difficult.
That means we have to stay in the car all night. What's even scarier is that because the car has the heater on all the time, the fuel consumption is quite high.
There are now less than two bars of oil left, and this amount of oil cannot last for one night.
And even if we make it through this night, how will we go down the mountain tomorrow?
There is no mobile phone signal in this mountain. Once we run out of gas, we are doomed!
As the sky gradually darkened, I glanced at the outside temperature display on the dashboard. It was now minus seven degrees.
I glanced at Wang Yi and said to her: "Wang Yi, we have to turn off the heating."
After hearing what I said, Wang Yi also realized it. She glanced at the dashboard and said, "Are we all going to be unable to leave tonight?"
I nodded lightly, and in order to prevent her from blaming herself, I hurriedly said: "Don't worry, it's nothing. It's not the first time we've slept in the car."
"But this time the situation is different! It's all my fault, it's all my fault."
