Eighteen bends on the mountain road

After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Zhang Yuanyuan felt that it made sense, and she immediately felt relieved, so she discussed with Lu Xiaoxiao what to bring with her on a business trip.

At around five o'clock in the evening, the first thing Lu Xiaoxiao did when she got home from get off work was to call Zhang Xu. Because she didn't know when she would be back from this business trip, she planned to tell Zhang Xu in case Zhang Xu couldn't be found. She was worried.

"Hello, I'm looking for Zhang Xu." Lu Xiaoxiao said when the call was connected.

"The boss is not at the base. Please call back in a few days."

"Can I ask where Zhang Xu went?"

"No, this is a confidential matter."

"Then can you bring me a message to Zhang Xu?"

"Please say."

"Please help me tell Zhang Xu that I'm on a business trip."

"Okay, I will convey your words to you."

"Thank you." Lu Xiaoxiao hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

After hanging up the phone, she sat on the sofa and thought about things for a while, then got up to make dinner.

After more than two hours of hard work, she not only prepared tonight's dinner, but also prepared dry food for the road tomorrow. As for other things, she didn't plan to prepare them because she had them all in her space.

So when she sets out tomorrow, she only needs to carry a larger bag and set off. If she is missing something, she can use the bag to cover it up and get it from the space.

At seven o'clock the next morning, Lu Xiaoxiao went out with her bag after breakfast. Because the village they went to this time was far away from the county seat, the factory decided to arrange a car to give them a ride.

Otherwise, with their walking speed, they might not be able to reach the foot of the mountain where the village is located by tomorrow morning.

"Xiaoxiao, you're here." Zhang Yuanyuan shouted excitedly to Lu Xiaoxiao when Lu Xiaoxiao walked into the office.

"When to set off?"

“You can set off as soon as people arrive.”

"Is Zhang Jian here?"

"not yet."

"Then let's sit and wait for him."

"No need to wait, he's here."

After Lu Xiaoxiao heard Zhang Yuanyuan's words, she turned around and looked back, and saw a tall boy walking towards them.

So she put the unloaded bag back on her back, and then said to Zhang Yuanyuan: "Let's go, let's take a car."

Zhang Yuanyuan nodded after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, then she quickly put her bag on her back and walked out behind Lu Xiaoxiao.

"Hello... I'm Zhang Jian. I'm going to buy food with you this time." Zhang Jian saw Lu Xiaoxiao and Zhang Yuanyuan walking towards him, and he quickly introduced himself.

"Are everything ready?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked after hearing Zhang Jian's words.

"Everything is ready."

"Then let's set off."

"good."

More than two hours later, Lu Xiaoxiao and the others arrived at the foot of the mountain. Looking at the endless mountains and the winding mountain road, she suddenly felt the urge to die.

So she looked at the two people next to her, and saw that the expressions on their faces were even uglier than hers, and she suddenly felt a little more comfortable.

"Xiaoxiao, do we really want to climb the mountain?" Zhang Yuanyuan asked Lu Xiaoxiao hopelessly.

"We're here, can you stop climbing? Do you want to walk back to the county seat?"

"Forget it. We are too far away from the county seat now. We may not be able to get back to the county seat even if we walk for a day and night."

"That's it, you two, drink some water to replenish your strength. We have to prepare to climb the mountain. Otherwise, we won't be able to reach the village before dark, and we will have to sleep in the mountains."
