After returning, Zhao Xu saw that he still had time, so he planned to go down the mountain to the supermarket to buy rice and noodles. He also bought some things for this family.

People took me in with kindness, but I couldn't live here in vain.

After telling Su Rou, Su Rou said to Zhao Xu: "Go ahead! It's getting dark, remember to come back early."

Zhao Xu said "Yeah!" and drove down the mountain alone.

I passed by a gas station, filled up the car with gas, and then drove directly to the local supermarket. I bought a bunch of rice, noodles, oil, meat, snacks, and milk.

When we returned, it was already dark.

This is a mountain road, Zhao Xu didn't dare to drive too fast.

When we were driving halfway up the mountain, we saw two cars blocking the way.

Zhao Xu honked the horn twice, and a man came over and said to Zhao Xu: "Brother, our car is broken down! It needs to be repaired before we can leave."

Zhao Xu frowned when he heard this.

He was rushing back, but he didn't expect that someone else's car broke down on the way.

Zhao Xu got out of the car, lit a cigarette, and walked towards the place where the car broke down.

I saw these people, there were nine in total. Among them were men, women, old and young.

These people, at first glance, are not locals.

While smoking a cigarette, he asked these people: "Aren't you locals?"

One of them replied: "We are from Chongqing!"

"Are you going to Bagetu Village?" Zhao Xu asked.

The other party nodded and said, "Brother, you are also a foreigner, right? Are you going to Bagetu Village too?"

This road only leads to "Bagetu Village". If you go further, there will be no road.

Zhao Xu said "Yeah!", nodded, and said he was coming to visit relatives.

He saw that one of the cars couldn't start, so he asked him to open the hood of the car and have a look.

After opening the chassis cover, Zhao Xu checked the car's battery and found that the power was intact.

He checked it carefully and found that it was a problem with the "gasoline pump".

After throwing away the cigarette butt, he said: "Let me help you fix it!"

It only took Zhao Xu less than five minutes to help repair the "gasoline pump". He got in the car, stepped on the clutch, started the car, and listened to the sound of the car's engine, and it started running normally.

These people were very happy and hurriedly said to Zhao Xu: "Thank you!"

Zhao Xu didn't take this trivial matter to heart and replied: "You're welcome!"

However, I saw that these people were wearing professional mountaineering clothes and their movements were all professional. I asked casually: "What are you doing in Bagetu Village?"

A little girl with a ponytail and about twenty-five or six years old replied: "We are from the scientific expedition team and we are going to Dawu Mountain for scientific research."

"Xiao Lin, you..." A man in his mid-thirties looked at the girl named "Xiao Lin" and hesitated.

Xiaolin said disapprovingly: "What's wrong? Our scientific research was approved by the relevant departments. It is an aboveboard matter. Why can't we tell others? Besides, they helped us repair the car. You idiots, even the car

It can’t even be repaired.”

When Zhao Xu heard that the other party was from the "scientific expedition team", he couldn't help but frown.

The "witch" said that they could not be two people on this trip. Could it be that they were referring to the "scientific expedition team"?

The key word "witch" made Zhao Xu feel lingering fear. That is, among the people traveling with him, there was one person who was not a human being?

When he thought of this, Zhao Xu glanced back and forth at these nine people.

But these nine people look normal no matter how you look at them.

The witch said that one of them is not a human being. What does that mean?

Could it be a ghost?

But this is not realistic!

Seeing that it was very late, Zhao Xu said to the people of the scientific expedition team: "It is very late, everyone should hurry up and get on the road!"

"Okay! Let's get on our way as soon as possible."

A man in his sixties smiled and nodded.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a thunderbolt in Sunny Sky.

The girl named "Arlene" said: "It looks like it's going to rain. Let's hurry up."

Zhao Xu couldn't help but remember that the "witch" said that he could not send rice or noodles over tomorrow.

Did the "witch" predict that it will rain tomorrow?

But the weather forecast only said there would be light showers.

Everyone got on the car one after another and started to drive under the stars.

After arriving at "Bagetu Village", the members of the scientific expedition team parted ways with Zhao Xu and went to the village chief's home.

Zhao Xu drove directly to the woman's house.

Beep!

After honking the horn twice, Su Rou ran out and opened the door for Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu drove the car into the yard.

At this time, sporadic raindrops had fallen.

Su Rou said to Zhao Xu with an angry tone: "It's almost raining, why did you come back?"

Zhao Xu explained: "I met a group of people from a scientific expedition team on the road, and their car broke down. I helped them repair the car, which wasted some time."

"Scientific expedition team? Why did they come to Wushan for scientific research?" Su Rou asked in confusion.

Zhao Xu shrugged and said, "I don't know!"

"Go and open the door! I will move in the rice noodles I bought for my aunt, and give the rest to her!" Zhao Xu ordered Su Rou.

Su Rou said "Huh!" and hurriedly ran to open the door.

Rice noodles weighing fifty kilograms were as light as nothing in Zhao Xu's hands.

Holding a rice bag in one hand, he quickly moved three bags of rice, three bags of noodles, three barrels of oil, some meat, milk, snacks and other items into the house.

Zhao Xu said to the woman: "Auntie, I bought this for you. I'm staying at your house and I'm disturbing you."

"Oh! You are too polite. We are only hosting you for a few nights, so you don't have to buy so many things."

Zhao Xu explained: "I went to the foot of the mountain and bought some rice noodles for the witch, and I bought some for you by the way. I gave you money, but I was afraid that you wouldn't accept it. It's better to buy some things!"

"Thank you! Thank you! The food is almost cold, please eat quickly."

The woman said: "You are such a good wife! I asked her to eat, but she refused to eat and insisted on waiting for you to come back."

Zhao Xu looked at Su Rou.

Seeing that Su Rou's pretty face was flushed, almost to the point of her ears. She deliberately teased Su Rou and said, "Thank you, wife!"

"you......"

Su Rou's pretty face turned cold. She wanted to scold Zhao Xuxun and said, "Are you asking for a beating?"

Due to the presence of the woman and child, the words were temporarily changed to "Hurry up and eat!"

Zhao Xu and Su Rou sat down at the dinner table.

The child suddenly had a lot of snacks and was very happy. He kept calling Zhao Xu and Su Rou, "Brother is long, sister is short!"

The food was very delicious, including kimchi, stir-fried pork, and a stir-fried vegetable that Zhao Xu didn't name.

While Zhao Xu was eating, he asked the woman: "Auntie, when I came back, I met a scientific expedition team. Have you seen the people from the scientific expedition team before?"
