Free Web NovelChapter 1198: Chapter 1198: Can’t Get Through
Just now he didn’t walk up to the landslide, so he doesn’t know if it’s possible to pass through there. But then again, even if it’s passable, it’s still far from where they need to go. If they have to walk, who knows how long it will take to get there.
Moreover, this time they’re not only taking people to support, but they’ve also loaded several trucks with supplies. Even if there’s a path and people can get through, what about the supplies? How will they get through?
Old Wang was thinking about this as he walked back. Meanwhile, the people in the car had been waiting for a long time. Seeing that Old Wang hadn’t returned, they couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious.
"Why is Old Wang taking so long? Could something have happened up ahead?"
"Why don’t we go down and take a look?"
"How do we go down? We don’t even have umbrellas."
"So what should we do? Just keep waiting?"
"Let’s wait a bit longer. If Old Wang still doesn’t come back, then we’ll go down."
"Alright, let’s wait a bit more."
They waited for more than ten minutes, but Old Wang still hadn’t returned. So, the people in the truck bed couldn’t sit still any longer. Plus, the rain kept blowing in, and the truck bed was already wet, making it uncomfortable to sit.
Jiang Xue saw that the truck bed was wet, so she didn’t sit any longer and stood up. She couldn’t see the road conditions ahead and had to communicate with the Little Fox using her consciousness.
"Little Fox, can you tell what’s happening up ahead?"
"Woman, there’s a landslide ahead, and the vehicle can’t pass. I used my spiritual power to check, and it’s several miles long."
"Several miles?" Jiang Xue was taken aback. She hadn’t expected such a long traffic jam. Just now, she was considering walking through if the vehicle truly couldn’t pass.
But now, with the jam stretching for several miles, when would she ever get to the other side? Moreover, Old Wang said he went to check the situation, and it’s been almost an hour without him returning.
"Yeah, why are you asking? You’re not planning to walk through, are you?" the Little Fox asked. Having spent so much time with Jiang Xue, it already knew her personality.
Right now, she’s fully concerned about Mu Qiancheng in the disaster area. To see him sooner, she would definitely consider other ways to get through.
And now, with the road blocked and vehicles unable to pass, the only solution is to walk. But with the road being so long, though they’re not far from the disaster area, driving might only take half an hour, but walking, who knows how long it would take.
"Let’s see!" Jiang Xue sighed. If the vehicle truly couldn’t pass, she might really have to walk.
"Alright, take another look. But I don’t recommend walking, because it’s too far," the Little Fox reminded and then fell silent.
Just then, Old Wang returned with an umbrella. Before Jiang Xue could speak, the others spoke first, asking, "Old Wang, what’s the situation up ahead?"
"It’s not good, there’s a landslide, the road is blocked, and we can’t get through."
"What, is it heavily blocked?"
"Yes, I heard the entire road is blocked."
"So what do we do? Just wait here? How long are we going to wait?"
"I heard there’s a small path to the disaster area from here; why don’t we try it?"
"The main road has a landslide, the small path might not be clear either. Besides, the cars behind us are lined up, and even if we want to turn back, we might not be able to."
