Chapter 796 The Internet is Off
Chapter 796 The Internet is Off
After dinner, the sky gradually darkened and the villagers returned home.
The director and his team used the electricity in the village chief's house to start editing and processing today's live video, while Lin Hao and his companions returned to where they were staying.
When passing by the adobe house, Lin Hao glanced at the cabin at the foot of the mountain, then looked at Lin Yun who was holding Cheng Cheng's arm, and sighed helplessly.
Enter the room, open the window and enjoy the night breeze and the chirping of summer insects.
Lin Hao was chatting with Xiao Qingyi and the others on his cell phone, but the network here was so bad that the messages he sent often failed.
He glanced at them and said, "The network here is too bad. I'm going to go out and find a place with better signal."
Lin Yun glanced out the window. The night was falling like ink. She raised her phone and said, "Xiaohao, I downloaded some movies. How about we watch a movie together?"
Lin Hao looked at his mobile phone and shook his head slightly. The feeling of being disconnected from the Internet made him a little annoyed.
He pointed to a hill not far away and said, "I'll go over there and take a look. If the network there is not good either, I'll come back!"
Lin Yun looked in the direction Lin Hao pointed and nodded gently, "Then be careful on the road."
She paused and added, "Don't come back too late."
She didn't notice that since coming to this strange little mountain village, her dependence on Lin Hao seemed to have become much stronger.
Lin Hao left the room and walked towards the hill not far away. Sure enough, his cell phone switched from 2G network to 3G, and he was barely able to communicate with Lin Qingyi and the others.
As the night deepened, Lin Hao turned around and looked towards Huanshan Village. Only the village chief's house and the adobe houses in the village had lights on.
The villagers seem to live according to the rule of working from sunrise to sunset and resting from sunset. Peace and tranquility linger in this remote mountain village.
He looked up at the sky. The air here was good, without the hustle and bustle of the city. The stars in the sky were particularly clear and bright, and the traces of the Milky Way could be seen faintly.
After a while, a figure came up to him and stuffed a bottle of happy water into his hand.
Lin Hao took the happy water, opened it and took a sip. He felt so refreshed that his whole body trembled. "Nice! Brother!"
Xiaodao sat next to Lin Hao and drank the happy water quietly so as not to disturb Lin Hao from enjoying the peaceful night.
Lin Hao turned to look at Xiao Dao and asked, "Where are the other brothers? Where did they go?"
Xiaodao pointed to the village below and said, "There are more than 20 people living in the village below, more than 10 people in the mountains, and there are five or six people in the town who are responsible for purchasing supplies."
"More than a dozen people couldn't stand the life without internet here, and returned to Jiangcheng."
Lin Hao nodded and pointed to the adobe house where he was staying. "I'll arrange for a few brothers to help watch the night."
"It has been arranged long ago!" Xiaodao grinned.
He called out "Gu~Gu~" towards the adobe house, and the house next to it also responded with "Gu~Gu~" sounds.
Lin Hao couldn't help but give a thumbs up. Although he knew that Xiaodao was around him for money, it was really gratifying to see him do this!
He glanced at the time, stood up and stretched his body. "I'll treat my brothers to a meal when I get back. It's almost time for me to go back too!"
As he spoke, he drank the happy water in his hand, turned around and walked towards the adobe house.
Xiao Dao stood up and walked with Lin Hao for a short distance, and casually said, "Brother Hao, do you remember the paddy field where you planted rice this afternoon?"
Lin Hao glanced at Xiaodao and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Xiaodao shook his head and continued, "There is a small pond next to the paddy field. You can see a lot of fireflies there at night."
"That thing is in Jiangcheng. I only saw it about 10 or 20 years ago. I didn't expect to still see it now!"
"And I found that the villagers here don't even have any nightlife. They almost go straight back to their rooms to sleep at night."
Lin Hao looked in the direction Xiao Dao described and said in a cold voice, "Just send it here. Don't let him be discovered later."
Xiaodao smiled awkwardly, knowing that he had said too much, and turned to walk towards his resting place.
Looking at Xiaodao's leaving back, Lin Hao shook his head helplessly.
In the romantic atmosphere of the flying fireflies, I told myself that not many people went there. What was this hinting to me?
When we returned to the adobe house, the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange. No one was playing with their phones!
Shouju was holding a paper novel and reading it with great interest; Chengcheng was holding his chin with one hand, daydreaming while holding a novel; Lin Yun was lying on the windowsill, his eyes fixed on the hillside where he was before.
After seeing Lin Hao coming in, Lin Yun came up to him and asked, "Xiao Hao, who was that person next to you just now?"
Lin Hao scratched his head. He thought that his second sister would not have seen it because it was dark, so he explained casually, "It was just a villager who helped out in the afternoon. I just told him about the outside world."
He leaned over to the windowsill and looked out. It was so dark that he couldn't see his hand in front of his face. He asked in confusion, "Second sister, is your eyesight so good? How can you see in such darkness?"
"Because someone has been looking over there since you left!" Cheng Cheng interrupted.
Lin Yun's cheeks flushed slightly, and she stepped forward and pulled Cheng Cheng's face, "Why weren't you so lively during the recording of the show?"
She came to Lin Hao, tucked the hair behind her ears, and said softly, "Don't listen to Cheng Cheng's nonsense!"
"I was watching a movie just now, and it wasn't until my phone ran out of battery that I thought of looking outside, and I happened to see someone sitting next to you."
As if to prove what she said, she took out her cell phone and shook it, and sure enough, it was out of battery.
Cheng Cheng smiled and moved closer to Lin Hao. "Are you a little excited when you heard me say that just now?"
Lin Hao reached out and flicked Cheng Cheng's head. "Knocking on anything will only hurt you!"
Cheng Cheng covered his forehead and smiled, "Eating everything will only make me balanced and healthy!"
She looked out the window and asked, "Xiaohao, is your phone still charged? How about taking us to the cabin?"
Lin Hao looked at the upside-down novel on the bed and guessed that Cheng Cheng's phone might be out of battery.
He rubbed his shoulders and hinted frantically, "Oh my, I am exhausted from planting rice today!"
Cheng Cheng curled her lips. How come she remembered that the two of them were just drinking tea and chatting today? When did they start planting rice?
But she didn't expose him, she just pushed Lin Hao towards the door and said, "I'll give you another massage while your phone is charging!"
Lin Hao nodded, and led the two of them out of the adobe house and walked towards the cabin.
It was pitch black in the night and it was pitch dark. It felt like if you were to leave the light range, you would be submerged in darkness.
Lin Yun gently grasped the hem of Lin Hao's clothes with one hand and looked around nervously.
The recent Jurassic Park kept echoing in her mind, and she always felt that there might be wild beasts lurking in the darkness.
Suddenly, a large, bony hand fell on her shoulder, and she was gently dragged into a warm embrace.
Lin Hao still looked at the road under his feet, with his usual cynical smirk on his face. "Second sister, how long can you walk like this?"
