Li Shanghui also felt that the snow should not last long, so he agreed, "That's right...it's okay, let's barbecue first. If the snow keeps falling, we will go back to the tent and eat hot pot."
Unfortunately, things did not go as they wished. After the sky turned completely dark, the snow fell even harder, and the temperature suddenly dropped from ten degrees above zero when they just went up the mountain to ten degrees below zero...
"Isn't the temperature not right? How could it suddenly drop more than 20 degrees? How about we go down the mountain overnight?" Li Shanghui said worriedly.
After hearing this, Jin Weimin shook his head and said, "No...it's so windy and snowy right now. It's too dangerous to drive down the mountain at night. If anything happens along the way, the gain will outweigh the loss!"
Gao Rui also agreed with Jin Weimin's idea, so the three of them took their wives and children back to their respective tents, thinking of making do with it for one night, and then going down the mountain as soon as dawn tomorrow morning..."
Unfortunately, things often backfire. Although a few people brought tents that can be used in all seasons, the wind and snow outside were so strong that the tents were crumbling. Even the temperature inside the tents was only about Maintain a few degrees above zero.
In the end, the three families couldn't bear the cold, so they had to go back to their car to keep warm... But the night was long, and although the car was warm, it was not a long-term solution. Once the oil in the fuel tank burned out, they would be completely stunned. .
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Jin Weimin suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a light not far away, so he quickly ran out of the car and discussed with Gurui and the others that if it didn't work, he could go to a nearby village to stay for one night!
The two of them immediately agreed to the proposal. After all, a real house is more stable than a tent... So the group of them quickly packed up the tent and drove to the brightly lit place in a panic.
Although the light looked very close, driving little by little in the heavy snow was much more difficult than Jin Weimin thought, so they walked for almost an hour before finally arriving at the entrance of the village.
Maybe it’s because the villagers here have the habit of going to bed early. The small village that was lit up with lights just now is now completely dark, with only one or two houses near the entrance of the village still with lights on...
After Jin Weimin and the other three parked the car at the entrance of the village, they quickly got out of the car and knocked on the door of a house with the lights still on. After knocking for a long time, an old man with white hair walked out of the yard. He looked confused. Looking at the strangers, Jin Weimin said, "Who are you looking for?"
When Jin Weimin heard this, he quickly said politely, "Uncle... We are tourists passing through here. The snow is too heavy and we can't go by car. Would you like to stay in your village for one night?"
The old man immediately said, "There's nothing wrong with this... But there are too many of you, and I can't live in my house... I'll call the village chief and ask him to arrange more homes for you."
Seeing the old man's enthusiasm, Jin Weimin and others were all very grateful. Otherwise, staying in the car all night in the snow would have been too much for the three of them...
After a while, the old man came back with a middle-aged man, who claimed to be the village chief Xu Wanglai. He asked Jin Weimin and his party to follow him to the village committee to warm up, and wait until he had made an agreement with the villagers. Take the three families to a place to sleep.
Upon hearing this, Gurry immediately said, "Thank you so much for taking us in during the snowy day... We will not live in this house for free, we must pay for the room."
Unexpectedly, Village Chief Xu waved his hand and said, "What's the room fee? We have so many houses here... you and your family can live in peace of mind."
While talking, Village Chief Xu took Jin Weimin's three sons to a large courtyard. Next to the gate of the courtyard was a wooden sign that read Qingshuihe Village Committee. Jin Weimin and the others were really cold, and there were several children, so they hurried into the bungalow in the courtyard to keep warm...
After Village Chief Xu took the three families in, he hurriedly walked to the middle stove to add fire to the room to warm it up. Jin Weimin and the others were indeed freezing, especially the four children, who were all gathered around the stove. Stretch out your little hands to warm yourself by the fire.
When Village Chief Xu saw it, he smiled and said, "Look at how many dolls are frozen...Why do you and your family come up the mountain to play in this season?"
Jin Weimin said with regret at this time, "The three of us are good friends who have known each other for many years. We are usually very busy at work, so it is rare for us to get together... In fact, we all read the weather forecast before going out, thinking about this It has been sunny for a few days, so camping in the wild should be no problem, but unexpectedly it started to snow not long after we went up the mountain."
When Village Chief Xu heard this, he shook his head and said, "The weather in the mountains is like a baby's face. It changes at any time... The weather forecast is useful! If you spend the night in the mountains with your baby on this snowy day, you will freeze to death." "
After hearing what Village Chief Xu said, Jin Weimin and others felt scared. At the same time, they were thankful that there was such a small village near the campsite. Otherwise, they would have been trapped in the heavy snow right now, calling for help every day. , The earth is not working properly.
Then Village Chief Xu told them that there was actually a big snowstorm here many years ago, and many people froze to death... The snowstorm lasted for three days and three nights. After the snow stopped, all those who entered the mountain The road was no longer open, and it took half a month before people used shovels to dig out a path down the mountain bit by bit.
Just as he was talking, the door of the room was pushed open from the outside, and a young man wrapped in wind and snow walked in. Village Chief Xu introduced everyone when he saw him, "This is my brother Xu Jie... I will let him take care of me in a moment." You go to sleep with someone who has an empty room."
After hearing this, Xu Jie said in a naive voice, "They are three families, let them sleep in Zhao Si, Ma Liu and Zhao Laogou's house!"
After hearing this, Village Chief Xu thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's take them there now. It's windy and snowy outside, so it's better to rest early."
After hearing this, Jin Weimin stood up and said goodbye to Village Chief Xu. Then the three of them followed Xu Jie out of the village committee and braved the wind and snow to spend the night at the homes of three villagers...
Because he was worried about Gurui and Li Shanghui, Jin Weimin insisted that they live in the first two families, while he, his wife and children lived in the last one. The man in this family is called Zhao Laogou. He is probably a rare visitor to the city. He is very enthusiastic about the arrival of Jin Weimin and his family. He will bring some hot water and snacks at other times.
In the end, Jin Weimin was a little embarrassed, so he asked his wife to take the two children to bed first, while he chatted with Brother Zhao in the outer room for a while... Zhao Laogou seemed very happy after hearing this, and even specially cooked a pot for Jin Weimin. The new tea of the year.
