Song Wenbin never knew that driving could be such a physically demanding task, just like he never knew that instant noodles and Lao Ganma were such delicious food.
The night they arrived in the city, they had a simple dinner at an unknown restaurant, and then fell asleep in a hotel next door. When Song Wenbin woke up the next day, almost every part of his body was sore.
In the early morning, after washing up, Song Wenbin rubbed his shoulders and left the room, and saw Su Tina and Huo Yu already sitting downstairs drinking instant coffee. The two seemed to be talking about something happy and snickering non-stop.
Seeing that they were inexplicably happy, Song Wenbin couldn't help but sit next to them and asked, "What's so happy about them?"
When Su Tina saw Song Wenbin coming over, she burst out laughing. Then he immediately turned his head away, not wanting to look at him, his face turned slightly red, but he still held back a smile, stretched out his hand and said hello to him. Huo Yu nodded at him, smiled and said good morning to him.
Song Wenbin frowned and pinched his face, realizing that he was not dreaming. The sun was really rising in the west. Is Huo Yu so polite? He was confused, but then he felt relieved. After all, they had gone through a lot together yesterday, and now they were companions in the same boat.
As soon as Song Wenbin sat down, Su Tina poured a cup of coffee for Song Wenbin and said, "There is good news and bad news."
"Good news." Song Wenbin said immediately. He wanted to hear the good news first and then decide whether to hear the bad news.
"We drove 500 kilometers yesterday."
Is this good news? Song Wenbin thought to himself, if everything goes normally, they should have arrived in Lagos. After all, the distance is only 800 kilometers in total. If they were in China, they would definitely arrive in more than ten hours.
"Yes, if you endure it a little longer today, you'll be there today." Song Wenbin said reluctantly with relief.
"But we drove the wrong way yesterday."
Sutina whispered.
Song Wenbin swayed at his feet: "What did you say!?"
Su Tina took out her mobile phone, opened Baidu Maps and said to Song Wenbin: "At the beginning of yesterday morning, Huo Yu was navigating, using Apple Maps. After that incident, she lost her mobile phone, so she replaced it with me for navigation, but I only had On a Baidu map, the route exported is not the same as the route she exported."
Song Wenbin opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a long time.
"We woke up in the morning and asked passers-by. If the road guided by Apple Maps goes south, it is a main road and the road conditions are better. But the road guided by Baidu goes west, and the road conditions are very bad. Sutina said apologetically: "So, we want to ask you whether you should turn back and take the main road now or continue to take the westward road."
Song Wenbin thought of the terrible sandy road yesterday and blurted out without hesitation: "I won't look back, I will never look back."
Huo Yu smiled when he saw this and couldn't help laughing.
"Is it funny?" Song Wenbin said angrily: "What's so funny about this? Is it funny to drive on the wrong road? Have you forgotten how miserable you looked yesterday?"
"It's nothing." Huo Yu stopped laughing: "I just thought of some happy things."
Song Wenbin frowned and stared at her, then suddenly stood up and walked to the mirror to take a look, and found that he was too sensitive and no one was drawing turtles on his face.
So Song Wenbin sat back and said: "Although Baidu Map is not that reliable, it is still a map and it will eventually point to Lagos. Let's just keep going."
"Fine."
Huo Yu stood up, stretched and said, "Then keep walking. Remember to buy some food and repair the glass. God, I've had enough of the sand."
Of course, she didn't need to say more about this. Song Wenbin had already decided to repair the glass. But when he walked out of the hotel and came to his Wuling Hongguang, he was stunned.
At this moment, someone spray-painted a row of large letters in English on his desk with pink paint. Although Song Wenbin's English was not very good, he could still understand some simple words.
"I don't like girl." 』
There is also a big pink heart painted on the back.
"Hahahahahahaha~"
Behind him, Huo Yu burst out laughing.
Sutina covered her mouth to keep from laughing but also bent down.
Hearing the laughter and thinking about the weird look of the two people when he got up, Song Wenbin still didn't know what happened. He gritted his teeth and looked at the two women behind him: "You guys did a good job."
Huo Yu laughed so hard that he was out of breath. He walked up to him with tears in his eyes, pulled him to the other side, pointed at the other side of Wuling Hongguang and said, "That's what it means."
It turns out that the other side of Wuling Hongguang has pink Chinese writing on it: "I don't like girls." ” Also painted with hearts.
"I don't need you to remind me!"
Song Wenbin shook off Huo Yu's hand and said angrily: "When did you guys do this?"
Huo Yu spread his hands: "Why are you angry? We just want to customize an exclusive car for you. Hey, aren't you a famous misogynist blogger? This car fits your definition of yourself."
"Then you use black! You use blue! You use white!" Song Wenbin roared: "Why did you use pink! And what the hell is this love? What are you implying!? You think I can't see it? ?"
Huo Yu laughed heartily.
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Sutina on the side was almost choking while holding back her laughter, and her neck turned red.
The companion who was in the same boat turned into a devil in the blink of an eye. Song Wenbin was so angry that he walked to Su Tina and said, "Okay! Looking at you, you are so polite, but you are actually a wilted and evil person!"
Sutina didn't speak, she was holding back her laughter so much that everyone was crooked.
To make matters worse, people from the program team appeared out of nowhere and started filming Song Wenbin's car. Song Wenbin looked at his pink-painted car. For a moment, he couldn't get on or off, and he was embarrassed.
"Brother, it's just the effect of the show."
Huo Yu patted him on the shoulder and said regretfully: "An outdoor live broadcast boss like you can definitely understand, right?"
After saying that, she got into her MG.
After lighting the fire, he laughed, put on his sunglasses and left.
Su Tina was about to get in the car, but Song Wenbin grabbed her and asked, "Where did she get the paint?"
"There is a paint shop across the street," Sutina said, holding back a laugh: "She saw it when she woke up in the morning... Oops, I didn't say anything."
She regretted it again and said to Song Wenbin: "This is not difficult to wash. Just find a gas station and buy some gasoline to wash it."
After saying that, Sutina left.
Song Wenbin jumped into the car, started it and started driving along the street. After being painted by Huo Yu, this Wuling Hongguang instantly changed from an inconspicuous car to the car with the highest turnaround rate on the street. . People turned back to look at this car that didn't like girls. Some were laughing, some were shocked, and some frowned in confusion. Being watched by so many people, Song Wenbin's face felt hot at this moment even though he had been live broadcasting for so many years.
Follow Huo Yu's car. The three quickly found the car repair shop, got out of the car and started repairing the windows.
While the windows were being repaired, more and more people came on the street. Some even took out their mobile phones and took pictures of Song Wenbin's Wuling Hongguang.
Song Wenbin felt so embarrassed that he ran to a nearby paint store alone, bought two bottles of eye-catching red spray paint, and secretly hid them in the trunk of the car.
After repairing the glass, the three of them started to find a gas station to refuel. At the gas station, Song Wenbin asked Su Tina to be his translator and help him buy gasoline to wash the paint. However, after looking at the paint, the person at the gas station told him that ordinary gasoline could not wash it, only solvent gasoline could wash it, and solvent gasoline could only be sold in larger cities.
Song Wenbin had no choice but to spend 8,000 naira at the gas station to fill up the tank, and drove the pink-painted Wuling Hongguang back on the journey to Lagos.
After leaving the crowded city, Song Wenbin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although Huo Yu and Su Tina kept laughing, they soon stopped laughing. Because not long after, they entered a vast hilly area. The roads here were not only dilapidated and rugged, but also went up and down.
The gravel-strewn and bumpy road made the vehicle creak and creak. Song Wenbin's buttocks kept shaking up and down while sitting in the car, and his whole body was about to be shaken away. They can't go fast on this kind of road. They could only move forward at a speed of less than forty kilometers per hour. When passing some huge potholes, they could even see the wreckage of overturned trucks on both sides of the road. God knew how much damage this road had gone through.
Seeing this scene, the three people's expressions became solemn. As they went deeper into the hills, the number of people around them gradually became sparse. The vehicles on the road were gradually replaced by motorcycles. Each of these black men riding motorcycles carried a large black and yellow box. They didn't know what they did. They just drove through the area in a hurry, heading towards Song Wenbin ran away in the direction he came from.
And every time they came to those forks in the road, Sutina's Baidu Navigation didn't know what medicine she had taken wrong, and always liked to take them to that narrow and uninhabited road. The three of them had never been here before, so they could only follow the navigation. Wandering around behind.
Song Wenbin didn't care. He thought the navigation was pretty good. It didn't take him to crowded places and kept him from being watched.
But Huo Yu couldn't bear it anymore. At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, she said on the intercom: "Su Su, are you sure the navigation is correct? Why do I feel that there is no one on this road..."
"I have never been here, but the navigation shows that we are on the way."
"How far is it to the next city?"
Huo Yu asked again.
"The straight-line distance is still about seventy or eighty kilometers."
Sutina said.
"Seventy or eighty kilometers..."
Huo Yu frowned and said, "Is the road ahead always like this?"
"It should be over soon. I think the ups and downs on the map are going to disappear."
"That's good. My car only has one-third of the oil left. I have to replenish it quickly." Huo Yu said.
At this time, Song Wenbin, who had been driving since the morning, couldn't help but laugh. Of course he would not miss this opportunity to ridicule. He picked up the intercom and said: "It seems that your 1.8T high-horsepower car is very suitable for the African people. "
"Come on, if I don't have any gas, do you have gas?"
Huo Yu said: "My car ran out of gas because it was all climbing uphill. That's all."
"I'm sorry, I still have half of the fuel, which is enough for me to drive more than a hundred kilometers." Song Wenbin said lazily.
Huo Yu was silent.
At this time, Sutina also whispered: "I don't have much oil left, only about one-third of it."
Because of what happened in the morning, Song Wenbin laughed ruthlessly. Not only did he laugh, he also said earnestly to the car camera: "African brothers, do you know which car to choose? Practice is the standard for testing truth."
