Chapter 620 This place seems familiar
Li Wanying and Hu Yong were not deeply touched by Sun Chengwen's words.
After all, they had never seen people starving to death with their own eyes, nor had they seen the scientist, so even though they had heard about him, they could only admire him and could not be as devout as Sun Chengwen.
Li Zhenmin, on the other hand, had a solemn expression on his face. It took him a long time to speak: "I know him. Just like what you said, Brother Sun, he will definitely go down in history. To be honest, a big part of the reason why I want to engage in scientific research and dedicate myself to the motherland and the people is actually because of him. If I didn't know him, I think I might be more content with the status quo."
This is the truth. Although there are many factors that make him want to do research, for that person, that is his spiritual pillar on the road of scientific research.
And compared to Sun Chengwen, Li Zhenmin, who traveled back from the future, knew better what kind of achievements that person would make in the future.
"Oh? You know?"
Sun Chengwen's face was full of surprise.
Li Zhenmin nodded: "Well, of all the scientists in the world, I admire him the most. When it comes to serving the people, I think no one can compare to him. I don't know what Shennong is like, but in my opinion, if there is a Shennong, he must be like him. He is the spiritual pillar of my scientific research."
Sun Chengcheng didn't worry about how Li Zhenmin knew the other person's name. His mouth was grinning from ear to ear, and a flower-like smile bloomed on his face.
"Well, well, well, I really hope to see what it will be like when you meet in the future."
Sun Chengwen laughed.
Li Wanying and Hu Yong looked at each other, and saw shock and confusion in each other's eyes.
It was the first time for them to see Li Zhenmin's heartfelt respect for someone. It seemed that this respect was not in his bones, but in the deeper soul.
After this chat, everyone was able to vent some of their emotions, diluting some of the previous depression.
Sun Chengwen clapped his hands and said, "Okay, it's getting late. Let's go to Jiangliao Province first, then find a place to settle down and try to reach our destination smoothly tomorrow."
.........
The group did not take advantage of Zhang Huaiyuan's identity to meet the local leaders. The main reason was that Li Zhenmin wanted Li Wanying and Hu Yong to be able to get in touch with the real situation at the grassroots level as much as possible this time.
That night, the few of them still found an ordinary guesthouse to rest.
The next day, during breakfast, Li Zhenmin went to buy a local map so that he could better study the route.
While eating, several people followed the research route given by Liu Cuifang.
The final destination is not very far from the provincial capital, only about a hundred kilometers away, and it is not as desolate as in Shankaka.
What surprised Li Zhenmin was that there was a county town in front of the destination on the map, and a name in the suburbs of the county town suddenly sounded familiar.
Photonic sheet?
I seem to have heard it somewhere, but I can't remember where it is at the moment.
Without thinking too much about it, they finished their breakfast and refueled themselves, then headed towards their destination.
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be possible to get there in half a day.
Considering that the road is difficult to travel on, we drove two jeeps with certain off-road capabilities when we went out this time.
Cars don't work very well on rural roads these days, and they are still too much of a burden to travel thousands of kilometers.
Li Zhenmin drove with Sun Chengwen behind, Li Wanying drove with Hu Yong behind, so that those behind who were not so good at driving could also follow the route.
But even so, Li Wanying and Hu Yong have suffered a lot these days, especially today!
They had been traveling on a national highway these days, so although the road was a bit bumpy, it was still within the tolerable range. But today, after leaving Jiangliao Province for a distance, the road conditions became increasingly worse, and even if the two followed the route of Li Zhenmin's car in front, they still found it a bit unbearable.
Suddenly, because she lost control of the steering wheel, Li Wanying drove the car directly into a big pothole, and there was a loud bang when the floor hit the road.
"Fuck, why don't I do it."
Hu Yong's heart skipped a beat, thinking that Li Wanying might be on her menstrual period these two days, so he must not lose his temper at this time and drive worse and worse.
Li Wanying snorted and tried again. The car seemed to be fine and was still stable, but she didn't try to be stubborn. So she gave up her seat and let Hu Yong take over.
As a result, Hu Yong was not much better.
Li Zhenmin in the front obviously noticed the situation behind, so he slowed down. Hu Yong could keep up, but the swaying was really uncomfortable.
“This is really not a road built by humans.”
"Not really. Do you think my skills are worse than yours? I haven't been feeling well these past two days. When you get back, please drive more and take care of your sister."
"Ah? How about telling me that we can rest here for a few more days before going back?"
"Are you looking down on me?"
"No, I think this is your first time in the countryside. No matter how strong you are, you still have to consider whether you are not used to the local climate. You are very weak right now. What if you get sick because of your stubbornness? You haven't married or had children yet."
"Don't worry, it's okay, we'll see when the time comes."
Li Wanying was indeed on her menstrual period and had dysmenorrhea for the past two days, but she did not tell Li Zhenmin because she was afraid of being embarrassed.
However...
As the road conditions worsened, Li Wanying's face became paler and paler due to the constant bumps, but it was not easy to park in the cold winter. If it snowed, they would be trapped. The sky was gray today.
Two hours passed without me noticing.
Finally approaching the county town below, the road gradually became flat. Hu Yong, who had been concentrating on driving, breathed a sigh of relief: "Sister, it's much better now. How do you feel?"
As he said this, he glanced at Li Wanying who was sitting in the passenger seat.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, but once you do, you'll be scared.
Before, because my driving skills were not that good and I had to focus all my attention on controlling the car, I didn't pay much attention to Li Wanying. Now, I found that Li Wanying's lips were pale, her face was pale, and her face was covered with sweat.
No wonder Li Wanying didn't say a word during this whole journey!
"Sister, sister, please say something!"
Hu Yong quickly stopped the car, honked the horn to alert the car in front while checking on Li Wanying's condition.
Li Wanying frowned and cursed weakly, "Fuck, it hurts so much, I feel like I'm going to die."
When she came to her senses and saw that the car had stopped, she cursed again: "Can you please stop talking nonsense and drive to the county town quickly? Are you stopping here to eat my feast?"
Even though he was cursing, his voice was not loud. Hu Yong had never seen such a situation before and was extremely scared.
"Oh, I'll drive now."
Hu Yong started the car again as he spoke with shaking hands.
At this time, Li Zhenmin had also gotten out of the car and came over here. He saw something through the car window and knocked on the glass window: "What's wrong?"
Hu Yong quickly started the car, opened the door, and said anxiously: "My...my...sister is on her period, and it seems to be quite serious now. We need to rush her to the hospital."
Li Zhenmin understood what was going on and also noticed Hu Yong's panic. He probably guessed that the boy was blaming himself for not driving well, which led to his sister's health problems, so he felt very guilty.
He patted Hu Yong on the shoulder and comforted him, "I understand. Go to the front and tell your uncle Sun. I'll drive."
There was no need for Hu Yong to notify them. Sun Chengwen, who had followed, also knew the situation, so he nodded and said, "Xiaoyong, help your sister to the back seat, and you take care of her here. I'll drive the car in front and follow you."
He didn't say to clear the way for Li Zhenmin, because he had heard about Li Zhenmin's driving skills that had caused him to lose blood, and if he cleared the way in front, he would become a burden.
