We didn’t eat anything. The breakfast here looked good and expensive, so everyone decided to continue driving to Bangor to eat again.
Because judging from the navigation, it’s less than three hours’ drive from Bangor.
But it was really too early, and everyone was quite sleepy. Hou Xiaoai also leaned on the back of his chair and squinted his eyes. Only Zhang Lin seemed to be an energetic person, even at an altitude of nearly 5,000 meters.
None of this affected her enthusiasm. She was talking while driving and was in great spirits.
Chen Xing dealt with it casually.
However, this road is not an asphalt road in the county. There is a gravel road in the middle. The vehicle begins to move forward slowly and undulatingly. In this case, Chen Xing quickly wakes up. He is worried that the violent shaking of the vehicle will make him motion sick.
.
But until the car drove through this section of the road, nothing happened to Chen Xing.
Have I adapted to long car rides?
This is definitely good news for Chen Xing.
Yu Jie swayed and fell on Chen Xing's shoulders. After being pushed by Chen Xing, he woke up. He smacked his lips a few times and felt that his mouth smelled a bit bad, so he said, "Let's find a place with water to wash up later."
Just give it a try."
Zhang Lin said: "Who told you to get up so late?"
Hou Xiaoai said: "The car seems to be low on gas. I saw on the navigation system that there is a gas station outside Bangor. You two go and wash up while we refuel."
Yu Jie said: "You are so gentle and beautiful, but you don't have a boyfriend."
Zhang Lin helped her best friend and said: "Do you want to be one?"
"Of course!" Yu Jie said.
"Bah!" Zhang Lin said, "You are not qualified in terms of height. Xiao Ai is 1.75 meters tall, are you 1.65 meters tall?"
"Fuck!"
This is a bit of a personal attack, and Yu Jie is not very short either. Although he is not as tall as Hou Xiaoai at just over 1.7 meters tall, he is considered to be a middle-class figure among southerners. Why is he 1.65 meters tall?
……
Yu Jie started to quarrel with Zhang Lin.
Both of them are old friends who have been playing outdoors for a long time. Generally speaking, their mentality is not problematic. The argument between the two did not continue to develop. They just bickered to pass the boring time in the car.
When talking about funny things, Chen Xing and Hou Xiaoai will laugh out loud.
Arriving at the gas station outside Bangor city, Chen Xing and Yu Jie took toothbrushes and toothpaste to wash up.
But surprisingly, there is a sink here, but the faucet on the sink cannot discharge water, so Chen Xing went to the car to get a water tank, and used the water in the tank to wash his face and brush his teeth. When he returned, the car door was half open.
, Zhang Lin was sitting in the driver's seat playing with her mobile phone.
Seeing the two men coming back with the water tank, she stepped on the ground and closed the door and said, "This is just the water. Pour it in to wash the car. One of you can fetch another bucket of water."
This is a gas station, there should be water.
Chen Xing nodded and poured water on the front windshield of the car. The little water inside was empty.
He took the empty water tank to the gas station employee and asked: "Is there tap water here? We have run out of water and would like to get some."
The female employee pointed to a small house in the distance and said, "The water is over there."
Chen Xing walked to this small house. The house was very small, probably only two or three square meters. On one side of the wall were several stainless steel basins that were slightly larger than the wash basins, which were filled with water. There was also a plastic water pipe on the wall.
But there are only water pipes and no switches.
Chen Xing put down the water tank and walked around the house.
Didn’t you see a place to put water?
Could it be inside the room?
Chen Xing went to check the door again. It was a thin iron door, but it was locked.
So here comes the question, how do you get water out of a plastic water pipe without a faucet?
When he was thinking about life, the female employee who had given Chen Xing guidance came over and said with a smile: "I guess you don't understand us, so let me help you."
"Thank you!" Chen Xing's voice suddenly sounded loud and clear, as if he had seen a savior.
She walked to the other side of the wall and lifted up a layer of black cloth. Inside was an embedded water flow switch. She asked Chen Xing to take the water tank under the water pipe and turned the switch. A stream of water flowed with a powerful impact.
The force hit, and most of the water tank was filled in three seconds.
A female gas station employee explained: "Our water resources are not as abundant as in the mainland, and there is no running water. The water here is pumped up from the ground through pressure."
"Thank you."
Chen Xing said this thank you more sincerely than before.
The two went back together, and she asked: "You are going to Ali, right?"
"Yeah."
"It's November and the road is very difficult. You have to be careful."
"Okay."
After returning to the car and putting the water in, Zhang Lin said, "Why did it take so long to pour the water?"
"I chatted with that person for a while."
He was embarrassed to say that he didn't know how to use the faucet here, so he stood there and thought about life for a few minutes.
Zhang Lin laughed twice, started the car, and said: "That woman looks very young and beautiful. Do you think she has a crush on our Xiao Chen?"
Yu Jie didn't know what the woman looked like, but he nodded deeply: "It's possible."
"Maybe it's bullshit." Chen Xing said, "We just talked about things on this road, and we didn't add any contact information. Let's discuss what to eat when we have nothing to do. Don't wash my head."
"What do you mean by washing your head?" Yu Jie, who was born in Shanghai, asked.
"Don't mean it as a joke." Xiao Ai said.
Bangor is a relatively large city. The buildings look like construction sites, and it is a desolate construction site where some houses have been built but no roads have been built. No one lives in it. There are very few people. Except for one main road, which has a paved road.
Any other branches are rural dirt roads.
On the way, Chen Xing saw a place that looked like a county hospital, but its name was the Medical Department, which was built with the aid of Sinopec.
After Hou Xiaoai saw this, he remembered what he had seen when he was checking the information, and said: "This city seems to have been built with the aid of Sinopec. It has spent hundreds of millions, but the only gas station in the county is PetroChina."<
/p>
Chen Xing said: "That one just now?"
"No, we went to a private gas station before."
Zhang Lin complained: "Gas prices are ridiculously expensive anyway, who can afford to pay 8.7 yuan for gas?"
Yu Jie said: "It will be more expensive for you to go to PetroChina, and then you will miss the eighty-seven dollars."
Chen Xing suddenly shouted: "Shaxian snacks? There is this here, let's eat this?"
He didn't eat anything for dinner last night, and he got up so early to go on the road, so he was already hungry.
No one refuted, after all, I have been walking for more than half of this city, and I haven’t seen any place selling breakfast.
After Chen Xing entered, he ordered a large portion of Chaosou.
Chaoshou is the name of the southwest region, and other places also call wontons, wontons, etc., but Chen Xing feels that wontons are wontons and Chaoshou is Chaoshou, which are clearly two different things.
Zhang Lin was excited all morning, and now she is a little tired because she didn't wake up.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Ai said: "How about I drive the car and you rest."
"No need, I'm familiar with this car."
Yu Jie said: "Don't make fun of our safety. If you feel sleepy, go take a nap and I'll drive. I've been driving for ten years, so it'll be no problem."
Everyone discussed it and decided to give the car to Yu Jie to drive.
Everyone has a driver's license, but Chen Xing's driving skills are really not good, let alone the bad roads and muddy roads on this road. Once he gets started, he will probably stall the car ten times a minute, and he won't be able to drive it.
Dare.
After eating, Yu Jie got on the driver's seat. He originally thought that Hou Xiaoai would be sitting next to him, but he looked at the person who opened the door with a smile on his face.
