After traveling through the book, I realized my wish in my previous life

It’s July, the sun is shining brightly and the heat is unbearable!

The sun scorched the earth mercilessly, as if it wanted to melt everything in the world in this rolling heat wave.

The air was also filled with a hot atmosphere, and cicadas were chirping tirelessly in the trees beside the road, their sounds drawn out.

The weather seemed increasingly hot and unbearable, as if they were also venting their dissatisfaction with the heat.

Jiang Yan was driving along the winding mountain road.

When Jiang Yan joined the transport team, he was driving this car. The whole car exudes a heavy and simple atmosphere.

The car paint has long been mottled after being exposed to wind, sun, and hard work. The original color is difficult to distinguish clearly, and only some traces of dark green and dark gray can be seen.

The wide front windshield was covered with dust and water stains, and the wipers lay there quietly, as if they had also lost their energy due to the scorching heat.

The headlights on both sides of the front of the car have yellowed lampshades, as if covered with a layer of old gauze, but they are still stubbornly embedded there, witnessing every journey the car has taken.

The car body is also full of traces left by long-distance travel, and the mottled paint tells of the ups and downs it has experienced.

The truck bed was loaded with cargo and covered tightly with thick canvas.

The canvas was a bit worn, and the stitching at the edges had begun to loosen. As the truck bumped along, it fluttered slightly in the wind, revealing the fatigue of the journey.

When the car drove to the foot of a mountain, Jiang Yan slowly stepped on the brakes, and the truck stopped with a creaking sound.

Jiang Yan looked around and turned to look at Qin Song in the passenger seat. His voice was filled with fatigue. "Let's take a break here and have some lunch."

The loose hair on his forehead was soaked with sweat, and stuck to his smooth forehead in clumps. Jiang Yan casually pulled it twice and pushed the hair on his forehead to the top of his head.

He usually looks neat and tidy, but now he looks a little disheveled!

Qin Song's face was also flushed at this time, and sweat had already soaked his clothes, sticking tightly to his back.

He wiped his face with the towel draped around his neck and complained, "This damn weather is too hot! I feel like my car's tire is going to burst from the sun, and my internal organs feel like they're filled with air!"

"Can we take a longer break at noon? I feel like I can't stand it any longer!"

As he spoke, he opened the car door and faced the heat wave. He subconsciously frowned and quickly jumped out of the car.

Jiang Yan also got out of the car, closed the door, and the two walked to a slightly shadier place at the foot of the mountain.

Qin Song stretched his head to look into the forest and suggested, "Jiang Yan, how about we go a little inside? I feel like it might be a little cooler inside than here!"

Jiang Yan followed Qin Song's gaze and looked inside, then nodded, "Then let's go a little further inside, not too far, otherwise if something unexpected happens, we won't be able to make it in time."

Qin Song waved his hands and said, "No, I won't let the car out of sight. If anything goes wrong, even ten of my lives won't be enough to compensate!"

The two walked a little further inside and then stopped.

Above my head and around me, tall trees with lush branches and leaves stand tall, with layers of leaves pressing against each other.

Like huge green umbrellas, they tightly blocked the scorching sunlight. Not far away, a few tiny rays of light leaked through the gaps, casting spots of light on the ground.

Unlike the outside world where you feel like you are being roasted on a raging fire, this little world avoids the direct rays of the scorching sun, and the temperature is still a little lower than outside. Even though the contrast is not particularly strong, it can still make people breathe a sigh of relief from the stuffy summer heat!

Occasionally, a gentle breeze blows by, and people can still feel a slight coolness.

When Qin Song got off the car, he took the kettle with him, unscrewed the lid, tilted his head back and drank a few big gulps.

After drinking the water and taking a few breaths, he found a small stone, swept it casually, and sat down directly. He felt a little more alive.

He handed the kettle to Jiang Yan, "Would you like some too?"

Jiang Yan had already drunk it before coming down, and shook his head, "No, I just finished drinking it and came down."

Qin Song screwed the lid on the kettle, frowned and said with emotion, "This transportation job is really hard, especially in the hot summer, it's really hard!

Fortunately, I am strong and healthy, otherwise I really couldn’t hold on! "

In this weather, everything is hard. Jiang Yan thought of his parents, brother and sister-in-law at home. They work in the fields every day, and their work must be even harder than his!

And Shen Xiaoxia, in this weather, I don’t know if she can hold on!

He sighed slightly, "Stop complaining. Compared to others, our job is pretty good. If you don't want to do it, there are plenty of people vying for it!"

Qin Song was just complaining casually. If he was really asked not to do it, he would definitely not be willing to do it!

He looked at Jiang Yan, "We've been out for quite a while, haven't we? We've made so many trips without even thinking of taking a break. I wonder if we can rest for a day or two when we get back."

In the past, Jiang Yan might not have thought about this problem, and he didn't particularly care how long he would be out.

Now, he actually wants to take some more rest, as there has been no progress at all on his personal issues!

Jiang Yan thought for a moment, then spoke, "I heard last time that after this run, we should be able to take a break. I just don't know how long. One or two days, or even two or three days is possible. I have to go back to the team to find out the details!"

Qin Song wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel again. "As long as I can rest, I'm not picky. Just two days will be fine. I want to have a good sleep!"

In addition to getting a good night's sleep, he also had to go back to that house. He hadn't been there for several months, so he had to go back and hand in his salary.

Otherwise, if they came to find him, he was afraid something might happen and he would be too lazy to deal with it, so he might as well go there himself.

They could only eat pancakes for lunch, and the two of them chatted casually while eating the pancakes.

Suddenly, I heard a rustling sound coming from the grass not far away.

The two looked at each other, and there was a hint of vigilance in their eyes.

In this remote place, no one knows what will happen.

Jiang Yan tiptoed to the side, picked up a thick branch on the ground, and signaled Qin Song with his eyes. Qin Song nodded to show that he understood.

He glanced around and tiptoed to a nearby location to pick up a stick.

The two men did not go to the place where the sound came from, but planned to retreat slowly. They didn't know what the situation was over there. Apart from the wooden sticks they picked up, they had no other weapons, so it was better not to take the risk.
