"Mr. Qin, I'm afraid we can't make it through tonight..."
Master Wang, the driver, looked helplessly at the heavy snow outside. Vehicles ahead had already clogged up into a long procession, and if they continued to cram in, let alone moving forward, they were likely to be stuck on the highway for the whole night.
"Then let's find a place to stay for the night..."
Qin Fang was equally helpless. The weather was still very good when he left Yanggui Province in the southern part, but Jiangnan Province was a bit north, and now it was winter, and they just happened to catch a heavy snowfall.
As soon as the heavy snow ca, the highway was imdiately closed. Even if they wanted to clear the road, they would have to wait until the snowfall lessened.
But the situation at hand didn't seem like it was going to lighten up at all, with thick snowflakes still flying all over the sky, probably lasting through the night.
Although Qin Fang was eager to return to Ninghai to get cozy with a few soft and cute girls, there was nothing he could do with the unaccommodating weather.
"I know there's a backroad we can take, which passes through a few villages and then we can get to the city..."
Master Wang was a bit more familiar with the local geography than Qin Fang. He imdiately drove off the highway, ready to head for the closest city.
Getting stuck on the highway overnight was definitely not the right choice. The sooner they got to the city and found accommodation, the better... Wen Yan naturally also followed Qin Fang's car and left the highway.
The snow drifted, as if the whole world was draped in a layer of white gauze, looking very beautiful and touching... Zhuoma, Yingzi, and Tang Xin, who lived in the mountains, seldom had the chance to see snowflakes, let alone such a vast expanse of white, and they were instantly captivated by the scenery.
Even Wen Yan was no exception. Girls are generally more emotional and couldn't help but want to stop and enjoy such beautiful scenes.
However, they were in the middle of nowhere with continuous snowfall, and if the car stopped running, they would have big trouble. So, they kept driving, following Qin Fang toward the city.
Pfft~~
The more anxious they were, the more likely accidents were... Just as the car neared a village, the tire suddenly burst with such a sound.
"Damn it..."
Master Wang cursed and hurriedly went to check. Luckily, he had a spare tire prepared. It was getting dark, so it was better to change it quickly to make it to the city in ti.
Qin Fang hurried out of the car to help too. Two people working together could get it done a lot faster...
"A nail?"
While Master Wang was changing the tire, Qin Fang noticed a deeply embedded nail in the burst tire, the culprit of this mishap.
Nevertheless, Qin Fang didn't think much of it, just helplessly frowned and blad his bad luck, without making a big deal out of it.
Soon, Qin Fang and Master Wang had changed the tire together, got back in the car, and continued onward. As dusk approached, there was still so distance to the city, and if it got any later, they feared they might not make it.
With night falling and the snow blocking the roads, if the cars couldn't drive, the only options would be to sleep in the wilderness or to find the nearest village to stay the night.
Pfft~~
But it seed that Qin Fang and his party really didn't have good luck. The newly changed tire burst again, just a few dozen ters out, with a muffled sound...
"Motherfucker, who's behind this?"
Master Wang was furious as well and harshly cursed before jumping out of the car to check, only to find another long nail had pierced the tire...
A puncture could be chalked up to an accident, but two consecutive punctures within just a few ters—no one would believe there wasn't so mischief involved!
"Mr. Qin, I'm so sorry, the spare tire also burst..."
Master Wang's face showed a mix of frustration and embarrassnt.
He was certain there was foul play with consecutive tire bursts, and since the route was his suggestion, the situation put him in an awkward position.
"If it's burst, it's burst. Let's not go any further tonight. There's a village over there; let's go find a place to stay for the night..." Qin Fang saw all this, knowing it wasn't Master Wang's fault, it was clearly sabotage.
Qin Fang had good eyesight. Although there was a two to three hundred ter distance from the village ahead, he could still see that there was a tire repair shop right at the entrance of the village.
This backroad from the highway to the nearby city was a shortcut. It would only take about twenty to thirty minutes to drive through here.
If they took the main road, they would need to detour a significant distance, possibly doubling the ti. With the current heavy snow blocking the road, it was estimated to be very congested on that side, so this small road might be more reliable.
Though the backroad is a shortcut, not many people know about it, so there's not much traffic usually, with just a few cars passing by occasionally.
This village is relatively remote compared to the city, and it could even be considered a distant small village relative to the surrounding area.
