After being divorced, I pried the corner of my ex-husband

Before the departure time, Xia Bing and Li Guanying sat down in the shade of a tree, shared some of the food they carried with them, and made a simple breakfast.

The border is relatively desolate, and there are no shopping malls to visit. The two bought some fruits from the villagers who set up roadside stalls, and took a few bottles of drinks from the convenience store next to the toll booth.

They are ready to face difficulties.

This somewhat tense atmosphere was not difficult for Li Guanying to deal with.

When I was a child, at the beginning of the Great Yuan Dynasty when the country was founded, my father followed the Yuan Emperor to fight in the north and south, and had to deal with attacks from other countries from time to time.In the second generation, when he was a little older, he assumed the responsibility of leading the younger children to evacuate and respond to emergencies. He also took Ge Wei and His Royal Highness, who was only three or four years old at the time, to hide in Tibet, and guided them to distribute food And water, and even help the children of the surrounding civilians by the way.

Materials must be prepared, but not too much, otherwise it will be a burden when marching.

At this time, he put Xia Bing and his backpack on his shoulders, and said: "It's almost there. We don't need to bring too much. The vegetation here is lush, and the environment and style are not different from those in South Siam. If you need to travel in the mountains, you shouldn't Worry can find food."

Xia Bing nodded in agreement, and after the two had breakfast, they found a place to rest in the shade, and by the way, taught Li Guanying to sing the "National Anthem" a few times, and practiced using the mobile phone face to face with him.

Finally, when dusk fell, the two gave a sum of money to the boatman who crossed the river, and boarded the ferry boat.

South Siam is economically developed than Laos, and the local currency is basically common in Laos.

It could be seen that the boatman was very satisfied with the amount of remuneration Xia Bing gave. As soon as they boarded the boat, they started quickly and did not pick up any other passengers.

In the night, the border customs and the bridge crossing the river are brightly lit, while the trees on both sides of the river are faintly shadowed, invisible together with other people and scenery, making it difficult to distinguish clearly.

Xia Bing and Li Guanying looked at the customs port that was drifting away, and let out a long sigh of relief.

But who knows, after the boat sailed for about an hour, Xia Bing saw that the two sides of the bank were getting darker and narrower, and even the street lights were gone, so Xia Bing couldn't help feeling nervous again.

He looked down at his mobile phone and opened the commonly used domestic map app...

Unfortunately, the map took half a day to load and ended up being blank.

network disconnected.

It seems that they have already left the border of South Siam, and South Siam's phone card and mobile network are all unusable.

His heart sank, and he suddenly remembered that Zhao Yizhen had said that he had activated international roaming for them all.As long as the settings are turned on, you can continue to use the situation, but the cost will burn faster.

He quickly opened the settings, and sure enough, the "International Roaming" option was not enabled. "Brother Li, bring your phone."

Li Guanying was nervous, her eyes widened at night, she turned her head suddenly, like an owl.

"I'll go! Startle me." Xia Bing rubbed his chest.

"What's the matter, Brother Xia? But did you find something unusual?"

Xia Bing shook his head: "We have already left the border of South Siam."

"That went well!" Li Guanying handed over the phone.

After setting the roaming mode, the mobile phone networks of the two were restored.

At this time, Xia Bing discovered that his location on the map had already shifted to the neighbor of Laos——Nanzhao.

At this time, the river they were in had been tightened to the narrowness of a ditch, only three to five meters wide.

There are dense jungles on both sides of the bank, and the shadows of broad-leaved trees and shrubs are patchwork, swaying gently in the wind, like monsters with teeth and claws.

A wave of fear welled up in Xia Bing's heart.

"Boater!" He stood up and shouted at the boatman, "Aren't we going to Laos? Why is the route off? Also, why is the road so narrow?"

The boatman kept rowing, and said with a smile, "You guys are smugglers! If you take three steps, one card, five steps and one sentry on the main road, aren't you afraid of being investigated?!"

"Then how long will it take to detour here?"

"Hurry up. Get out of this forest, someone will pick you up." The boatman said.

Xia Bing's heart thumped.Who will pick it up?He didn't say anything about letting people pick it up!

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Li Guanying asked in a low voice, "Brother Xia, is he leading the way indiscriminately? If there is danger, we still have a chance to escape now."

Xia Bing took a deep breath and shouted to the ferryman at the bow: "Hey! I'm in a hurry, stop and dock! I'm going to make things easier!"

The boatman kept the oars in his hand and shouted without turning his head: "Then you can solve it in the river! There are poisonous tongues and swamps on the two banks. Letting you go down may kill you!"

Viper?Then who is not afraid...

Hearing the croaking of frogs and insects in the jungle and the rustling of unknown animals, Xia Bing sat back in the stern helplessly and turned to look at Li Guanying. "We... don't go down yet."

Li Guanying nodded.He grew up in the Central Plains, and later lived in the Northwest. Not to mention the sea, there are not many rivers and lakes. Although he learned some water skills from his father's comrades-in-arms, he did not dare to rashly enter the water in the dark.

It was completely dark when the boat left the jungle.

The moon and stars appear particularly clear.

Xia Bing and Li Guanying could already see a village in the distance, and a few street lights were still on by the roadside at the entrance of the village.

The light was weak, but it ignited the hope in their hearts.

"Look, here we are," said the boatman. "This is the village where I fish. Do you have a place to stay? If not, you can stay in the village for one night."

Xia Bing finally let go of the hanging heart, thanked the boatman a thousand times, and gave the boatman an extra banknote as a tip before getting off the boat.

There was a private barrack on the small pier at the entrance of the village, but Xia Bing and Li Guanying didn't dare to sit there, but asked the boatman if there was a guest house or a small hotel in the village.

The boatman shook his head: "We don't have these in a small place here. Why don't you come to my house?"

But after the taxi driver and the black homestay incident last time, they didn't dare to stay in other people's homes casually.

Xia Bing clasped his hands together and asked the boatman, "Is there a Buddhist temple here? We want to go and worship."

The boatman looked Xia Bing and Li Guanying up and down, shook his head and said nothing, and pointed in one direction. "Hey. There's no one there. It doesn't matter whether you leave incense money or not. The key is to have a pious mentality."

Xia Bing nodded, and together with Li Guanying, walked in the direction pointed by the boatman.

It was a dilapidated temple, the paint on the wooden door was peeling off, and the bolts and nails on it had long been rusted.

One door could still be pushed open, while the other was so rusted that it couldn't be pushed.

The temples are dark and full of lights, not to mention the ever-burning lamps, and there is not even a little bit of incense.

The courtyard is overgrown with weeds, and you can stumble if you are not careful when walking.

Li Guanying looked around and said to Xia Bing: "There seems to be no one here. We don't have a place to get incense here, how can we worship?"

Xia Bing shook his head: "I just want to use this place to stay for a while. Don't ask me."

"Why?" Li Guanying was puzzled.

"Have you ever heard that, 'It's easy to ask God to send God away'. The gods and Buddhas here are different from ours. They are very evil. Once you worship, it is equivalent to recognizing their Lord, and they will Follow you all the time."

Li Guanying had goosebumps all over her body: "According to what you said, how can this be a god or Buddha? Isn't it a dish fairy ghost?"

Just as he was speaking, there was a faint "squeak" sound in the silent temple, as if the door was closed by some force.
