74110 said: "According to the map, we still have more than 40 kilometers to go. I'm afraid that after dawn, there will be more people on the road, so we will walk more slowly. Besides, , in this place where there is no village in the front and no shops in the back, except for the trees and the calls of wild animals, it is not safe if we stop here, let's go, let's just sit in the cradle when we were children Let me drive. I will drive as slowly as possible, which is the speed of riding a bicycle. Don¡¯t worry, I used to be an instructor in a driving school. I learned to drive professionally in the army. You all take a break, it¡¯s so bad I won't doze off in the road conditions."
The whole journey was silent, everyone seemed to have their eyes closed, but no one fell asleep, not because the car was shaking too much, but because everyone was worried whether the car would fall into the valley, as long as it fell, There may not even be a way to find the body.
When it was dawn, Xiao Wang opened his eyes and asked, "Brother Li, how long will it take to arrive in Taoyuan Township?" It turned out that the surname of 74110 was Li. He looked at the speedometer on the car and said: " My speed is ten yards. I walked ten kilometers an hour. I walked for more than three hours. He arranged for us to go to Mao Wenqing's place, otherwise, we would never have been able to find him."
The king took out his mobile phone, looked at the screen, and said, "No, there is no signal in this mountain! By the way, we haven't walked through it, have we? If we have, it will be troublesome." Xiao Wang also took out his mobile phone. When he came out, he said: "Yes, my mobile phone has no signal." Xiao Chuchu also tried after hearing that, yes, there is really no signal at all in this place.
74110 said: "I can be sure that I haven't walked through it, because there are no streets or houses along this road, and there are very few fork roads. Even if there are, those fork roads are only less than three meters wide. It¡¯s all about taking the tractor, we¡¯re on the main road.¡± The king asked Mao Wenqing, ¡°Mao Wenqing, tell me, how far is it?¡± Mao Wenqing opened his eyes, looked around, and shook his head. Shaking his head, he said: "I don't know, I only know that when I came out of the house with Big Mao and Xiao Mao, we left. I walked for two days and one night before I walked out. I tell you that you are not afraid, I am now I can't find my way home."
74110 sighed, and he said: "Okay, let's walk slowly. Fortunately, our car is an off-road version, the fuel tank is big enough, and the oil is full, otherwise, it will be even more troublesome. By the way, are you hungry, eat some bread in the trunk of the car to deal with it!"
They walked slowly for about an hour, asked at least five people, and finally came to a dilapidated two-story house. This house has a history of decades, and almost all the exterior paint has fallen off. , everywhere is tattered, when they came here, it was almost eight o'clock, this place is called Taoyuan Township, it really has some meaning of paradise.
In Xiao Chuchu's eyes, Qingshui Town where Xia Xiaozhu lives is very backward and poor, but compared with this place, it is definitely a paradise. There are mountains here, and there are no other houses or fields at all. . When 74110 and others got off the bus, they still didn't believe that this is Taoyuan Township. If they hadn't seen the sign in front of this building, no one would have believed that it was here. There was no one in this small building, and 74110 and others looked around, spread their hands, and said, "There is no one here, so there is nothing we can do!" Xiao Wang asked Mao Wenqing, "Mao Wenqing, we have already arrived in Taoyuan Township. You should know where your home is, right? Let¡¯s go and lead the way!¡± Mao Wenqing shook his head and said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I don¡¯t know. You may not know, but there are no roads for cars anymore, it¡¯s all mountain roads , some landowners don¡¯t even have a road! As I said before, although I¡¯ve lived in Wild Boar Mountain for decades, I¡¯ve never been out of that mountain. Even the last time, I didn¡¯t seem to be walking this way! I¡¯m really I don't know."
Xiao Wang asked: "Then what should we do? There is no mobile phone signal in this place, so there is no one working in their township government? What's going on?" The king also said: "It's no wonder their Taoyuan Township is so big, but However, the population is so small. It turns out that here are all mountains, and there are not many people. I guess in some places, a village is as big as half of our township, and it is difficult for their grassroots cadres. .¡±
Just as they were talking, an old man came over with a hoe. There were very few strangers in this place, and even fewer strangers came by car. He was a little curious, so he leaned over and asked, "Who are you looking for? "His accent is also very heavy, half of Tujia dialect and half of Mandarin, but the tone is similar to that of Mao Wenqing. After hearing this, 74110 and the others slowly realized it, so he smiled and told the old man about the situation. This old man is right about 74110's?, obviously didn¡¯t fully understand, and Xiao Wang continued to make some additions. After he fully understood, he said: ¡°You are here to find the mayor on business, the mayor is not here, they only have everyone The regular meeting of the month and every Wednesday one day of the week are here, and the rest of the time they are at home, and this has been the case for decades."
74110 said: "They only work one day a week. What if the folks have something to do temporarily? Where can I find them?" The old man said: "There is nothing you can do. If there is something urgent, then go to them to go home. Unless it is very urgent and important, no one will go to their home. People like them, even if they find their home, they may not be able to see themselves. They are very busy. Who doesn¡¯t have a lot of things big and small in the house! Sometimes I go to collect herbs, sometimes I go hunting, and sometimes I have to go to other houses to do things, it¡¯s hard to meet people!¡±
74110 and others never thought that such a thing would happen. He thought that after coming here, someone would entertain them. If they are happy, they can go to the scene. If they are not happy, they can stay in the office and read the newspaper. Just wait for the letter. He asked: "Old man, how many employees are there in the township government here? Is there a security team or a police station?" The old man shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe there are three or five. I heard that there is only one township chief and secretary, one accountant and family planning officer, one public security director and armed minister, and one doctor. Anyway, there are only a few of them. Everything is done by oneself, a person not only has to cover one side, but also has to cover both sides.¡± (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
