Chapter 91 Famous Rock
My cousin looked left and right, not knowing what to do.
He squatted down and asked, "Do you know the way to Gaoshan Temple?"
The man nodded and said, "Go up the mountain from the right road. It will take another two days to drive there."
Two days?!
I frowned.
It will take another two days to arrive, and I don’t know if this man can hold on.
My cousin said, "As long as his blood circulation is not blocked, it shouldn't be a big deal. Carry him to the car. Let's see if we can help clean his wound and drain his blood on the way. I'll try to drive as fast as possible."
As my cousin said this, he walked back and drove his car over.
After helping the man into the car, we drove along the road he pointed out.
Originally, my cousin would have gotten off the car to take a break on the way, but because there was a man poisoned by a snake in the car, we didn't dare to stop.
The man sat in the back with Dong Jing, and Dong Jing used the bandage in her magic bag to wrap the man's calf.
She said that this would slow down the spread of snake venom, but we don't know if it's true.
After driving for more than three hours, my cousin was tired and parked the car aside.
We also took advantage of this opportunity to bleed the man.
His previous wound had slowly healed, so I had no choice but to take out my multi-purpose military knife, disinfect it with Erguotou, and then heat it with a lighter before I could reopen his previous wound.
Blood mixed with snake venom flowed out of his wound, all black.
But this has improved. After all, we can see with our own eyes that his calves are gradually becoming less blue.
"Thank you so much, if I hadn't met you guys on the roadside, I might have died on this mountain."
The man was particularly grateful. He fell asleep during the whole journey. I reached out and touched his forehead. He still had a slight fever.
But I don’t have any medicine, and that’s our shortcoming.
The next time you travel far away, be sure to prepare some antipyretic or cold medicine.
Not to mention whether you will encounter other people who need help, even if you catch a cold or have a fever, you can still use it.
The main reason was that I didn’t expect that Gaoshan Temple was actually inside a mountain, and that the mountain was so remote.
"Are you also going to the matchmaking conference?" In order to ease the man's pain, I deliberately brought up a topic so that he could divert his attention.
He nodded and introduced himself.
His name is Mingyan, and he attended the fair to see the antiques and cultural relics inside.
"I'm an antique seller in the city, actually an auctioneer. This time I went up the mountain to look for people with the same destiny and see if I can drum up some business. By the way, I also want to see the antiques and cultural relics they have, so that I can get to know more about this industry."
It can be seen that if Mingyan had not been injured, he would definitely be a very talkative person.
According to what he said, he can also be considered an intermediary.
If someone asked him to sell the antiques they had, he would help contact the buyer. If the transaction was successful, he could get some agency fees.
This is actually the same with my real estate agency.
"What about you? Why are you going to the affinity conference?" he asked.
Just when I was about to tell Mingyan the purpose of our trip, my cousin came towards us from a distance with a cigarette in his mouth, and he replied to Mingyan.
"We are not actually going to the matchmaking meeting. We are going to Gaoshan Temple to ask the senior monks there to calculate whether their birth dates are compatible and to see when they can get married."
Dong Jing and I widened our eyes, not knowing how to react for a moment.
Mingyan looked back at both of us. I smiled at him and did not refute what my cousin said.
I don't know why my cousin lied, but I know there must be a reason why he did it.
"So you two are getting married soon, right?" Mingyan asked.
His eyes lit up when he heard the news.
"Great, when are you planning to get married?"
My cousin cleared his throat and said, "We were going to have the wedding done. After we have the monk calculate the birth dates, if there are no problems, they will go back and get the marriage certificate. As for when to have the wedding banquet, we will have to look at the auspicious time on the almanac."
Mingyan nodded, and in the sunshine, he smiled like a little angel.
"Then congratulations to both of you. It's not easy to get married these days, especially in the city." Ming Yan sighed and shook his head: "I had a girlfriend not long ago, and we were ready to get married. But I was poor, without a car or a house, and her family didn't agree. We had no choice but to break up."
I also felt annoyed when listening to it, no wonder he sighed.
So later on he focused all his attention on his work, thinking that he would no longer be afraid of not being able to find a wife if he had money.
That’s right, as a man, you should focus on your career.
I reached out and patted his shoulder: "It's okay, brother. I see that you are not too old. You can find it."
Because there was a patient in the car and he needed treatment urgently, I had no choice but to take turns driving with my cousin.
He drove the whole day and I drove the night.
"Mingyan, how long will it take us to get there? Our car is running out of gas."
I looked at the fuel tank and was sweating anxiously.
"It's almost there. If we keep driving like this tonight, we should be there by noon tomorrow. How much gas do we have left?"
Mingyan saw that I kept glancing at the fuel tank, and he also discovered the problem.
"There's still about half a tank left, so I think it can hold out. Drive as far as you can. If you really can't do it anymore, I'll carry you next time."
After that, I didn't speak again.
I have to keep my body focused and I need a lot of energy to see the road ahead.
The mountain was unusually cold at night, and the car lights cast mottled shadows of the trees. I had never walked on this road before, so my entire back was soaked with cold sweat.
"Just go forward, don't be nervous, it will be dawn soon."
Mingyan said behind me, and I thought he was trying to comfort me, but his voice seemed much older than in the morning.
I subconsciously looked at him in the rearview mirror. He cleared his throat and said, "My throat is not open, and it feels a bit uncomfortable. Do you have any water?"
"It should be next to the car door, look for it."
At this time, my cousin was already snoring from exhaustion, and Dong Jing was also sleeping quietly.
I was the only one who could hear Mingyan's voice just now.
Although I had doubts in my mind, I finally felt that I was just too sleepy, and Mingyan might not have opened his voice in the middle of the night.
And so I drove on.
Finally, after more than an hour, daybreak came.
