Chapter 926 Feiyun Town
Chapter 926 Feiyun Town
Wu Hou followed Zhou Hu and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"Why take a bus? It's not like I can't walk. Besides, didn't you see that even these female educated youth didn't say they wanted to get on the bus? How can a grown man like me have the nerve to take a bus?"
Zhou Hu couldn't help but glare at Wu Hou and said unhappily.
Upon hearing this, Wu Hou glanced at the female educated youth around him and touched his head embarrassedly: "Yes, it's my fault!"
"Okay, let's go. Stop talking. Look at the weather. Instead of talking, why not take a walk while the weather is still warm?"
Zhou Hu patted him on the shoulder, then quickened his pace and walked towards Feiyun Town.
In the first half hour, the eight people walked relatively fast, but after half an hour, several of them were sweating profusely, especially the sun in the sky, which was like a furnace, shining on their bodies, making them feel hot and unbearable.
Sweat kept dripping from the head, all over the body, and the clothes were also covered with sweat, making people feel uncomfortable all over.
"Brother Hu, this is too hot! Even in the city in June it's not as hot as in the northwest in March!"
Wu Hou complained while wiping his forehead with his sleeve, especially when he looked at the sun in the sky. He could not open his eyes because of the brightness. Even the crops on both sides of the road looked wilted under such sunlight.
"It's really hot, but there's nothing we can do about it. Just bear with it. We've only been walking for half an hour, and we still have several hours to go!"
Zhou Hu's physical strength is much better than Wu Hou's, but facing this horrible weather, he also feels very hot all over.
As for the other six educated youth, their steps were even slower, especially Jiang Yuyao, who was a little unsteady when she walked. Her originally rosy face now turned a little pale, and she looked even more fragile, like Lin Daiyu in the Red Mansion resurrected.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Hu knew that if they continued walking like this, Jiang Yuyao's body would not be able to hold on. He could only quickly take a few steps and came to Zhou Dafu who was driving the car, and couldn't help but say.
"Uncle Dafu, come and have a cigarette, you've worked so hard!"
As he spoke, he pulled out a pack of Daqianmen from his pocket, took out a cigarette and handed it to him.
"Uncle Dafu, how many miles is Liujia Village in Qiaotou Township from now? When will we get there?"
Lighting a cigarette for Chow Tai Fook, Zhou Hu asked with a wry smile.
If he remembered correctly, they had already walked about three or four miles. If what Zhou Dafu said just now was true, they would probably have to walk for at least another three or four hours.
Sure enough, Zhou Dafu first glanced at Zhou Hu, took a deep breath, and then said, "There are still three or four hours left, but if you want to reach the village today, it will take at least eight hours! It's good enough to reach the village before eight o'clock in the evening!"
"Eight hours?"
"What? So long?"
Zhou Dafu and the other man did not deliberately lower their voices when they spoke. When the other educated youth heard that it would take another eight hours to reach Liujia Village, the faces of all of them changed at once.
Jiang Yuyao, in particular, even wanted to die. She was originally the daughter of a big capitalist in the city. She had been spoiled since childhood and had never suffered any hardship. Now, after only walking for more than half an hour, she already had the urge to die.
Now that she heard that it would take so long, her heart sank as if she had fallen to the bottom of the sea. Her body was shaking so much that she wanted to sit down and rest immediately.
"Captain, village chief, this will take so long. I think the female comrades in our team can no longer walk. Otherwise, can you let the female comrades in the team get on the bus and have a rest first?"
Zhou Hu and Zhou Dafu naturally also heard the screams of several educated youths, but he did not turn around. Instead, he continued to speak to Zhou Dafu.
"Besides, look at the female comrades behind you. They are starting to stagger when they walk. If something happens on the way, it won't be good for you or our village, don't you think?"
"this?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Dafu looked in the direction Zhou Hu was looking, and sure enough, he saw that the three female comrades all looked weak and powerless, with even their faces being pale.
Although the other four male educated youth walked relatively steadily, it was apparent from their expressions that they were trying hard to hold back.
He shook his head in his heart, sighed and said, "Okay, let the girl get in the car first!"
After that, he turned to the three girls in the team and said, "Three girls, you guys get on the bus and rest for a while, the others can hold on!"
As he spoke, he shouted and stopped the donkey cart. Upon hearing this, the three female educated youth's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of surprise. They looked at Zhou Hu with gratitude, and then silently got on the donkey cart in the envious eyes of the male educated youth.
After the three women were seated, Zhou Dafu waved the whip again and started the donkey cart to move forward.
"Brother Hu, I can hardly walk anymore, why don't you let me get in the car too!"
As the donkey cart continued to move, Wu Hou couldn't help but step forward and say jokingly.
"Okay, stop gossiping. Besides, you saw that Jiang Yuyao and the others were already shaking. If they fainted, it would be a disaster!"
Zhou Hu said this and ignored Wu Hou's teasing, continuing to walk towards Feiyun Town.
Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.
The sun in the sky was even hotter at this time, and even Zhou Hu felt a little overwhelmed. Walking was not a big deal, but the weather was really unbearable for him.
The rest of the people also took turns riding the car, and he was the only one who kept walking.
The sweat on my head was like it had been soaked in water and never stopped.
"Brother Hu, why don't you come up and rest for a while?"
At this time, Wu Hou had a very comfortable look on his face on the donkey cart. He looked at the three women and one man still walking below and shouted to Zhou Hu.
"piss off!"
However, Zhou Hu ignored Wu Hou's gaze and raised his middle finger at him.
"Okay, everyone hurry up, Feiyun Town is just ahead, and after Feiyun Town is Qiaotou Township. We are less than halfway to our destination, come on everyone!"
At this time, Chow Tai Fook suddenly spoke.
"Captain, is that true? How about we take a break in Feiyun Town and buy some daily necessities during this time? What do you think?"
After hearing the captain's words, Jiang Yuyao and the other two girls were instantly shocked, especially Jiang Yuyao, who couldn't help but show a hint of joy on her pretty face as she asked.
"Of course you can, but we still have some distance to go, so we can only stay in Feiyun Town for half an hour at most!"
"Great, Captain, half an hour is enough!"
The three girls were so happy that they almost jumped up, and they all started discussing what they needed to buy in Feiyun Town. Even the male educated youth on the donkey cart couldn't help but show joy on their faces.
Soon, the donkey cart entered a quaint town and stopped at the gate of the supply and marketing cooperative. The four people on the cart got off and the eight of them walked into the supply and marketing cooperative.
