Return to 2000: Captain of the Great Powers

Chapter 54 Metamorphosis
Mo Shangyun put down the phone slowly, and could faintly hear the voice of Yunkong's explanation through the speaker, but Mo Shangyun was unwilling to listen anymore, what he saw with his eyes could give a more profound shock.

"Xu Cang?" Mo Shangyun couldn't believe his eyes. The person in front of him was covered with dense mud spots, and the shoes on his feet were covered with thick mud. The mud at the bottom of his trousers had already cracked. But the trousers were still showing signs of dampness above the knees.But Xu Cang's hair was all drooping and hardened into a mess, which was obviously a sign of drying out after being drenched in the rain.And Xu Cang, who appeared in Mo Shangyun's line of sight, was as pale as paper, his eyes that should have exuded youthful vigor were bloodshot, and his eyelids drooped feebly. It seemed that Xu Cang would close his eyes and fall asleep anytime in the next moment.

Tiredness, no need to ask, no need to find out, just looking at Xu Cang's current demeanor, exhaustion is already written all over his face.

That's right, Mo Shangyun knew Xu Cang, because he was the inspector who failed Xu Cang's proficiency inspection three times, the one who made Xu Cang fall from a hot new star to a joke among airlines.

Perhaps Xu Cang did not expect that Mo Shangyun would be the captain of the flight.In view of some bad experiences before, Xu Cang couldn't help avoiding his eyes when he looked at Mo Shangyun because of his not-so-introverted personality.

Mo Shangyun turned sideways, facing Xu Cang, his eyes looked up and down on Xu Cang for a long time, and finally asked: "The company said it has not been able to contact you."

"Oh, it's raining on the road, and the phone got wet and can't be used. I didn't do it on purpose." Xu Cang quickly argued.

Mo Shangyun's eyes froze: "You mean you came here in the rain, how did you come here? I read the news that the road from Jianchuan to Lushui collapsed and I couldn't walk."

"I can't go anymore." Xu Cang nodded: "However, I met a kind old man on the road. He sat in a donkey cart and took a small road to Linshui County, and then walked to Lushui. Actually, if we go according to the plan , I should have walked here at three or four o'clock in the middle of the night. However, it rained heavily in the middle of the walk, so I couldn't go on, so I found a place to take shelter from the rain and waited until the rain subsided before continuing, which was delayed A lot of time."

Xu Cang said that his voice became smaller and smaller in the end, as if he was out of strength, but he still tried his best to hide it, showing a happy smile: "It seems that I have caught up."

"That's right, you have indeed caught up. But, it doesn't seem to be a question of whether you can't catch up now?" Mo Shangyun is from Erhai City, Yunshang Province. Both Linshui County and Lushui County are in Erhai Lake It is under the jurisdiction of the city, so Mo Shangyun is quite familiar with the surrounding situation.

If it was within the normal range for Xu Cang to go to Linshui County in a donkey cart, then walking from Linshui County to Lushui County in the dark was simply crazy.

Mo Shangyun remembered that the sound of thunder and rain in the middle of the night had woken him up several times, that is to say, at that time, Xu Cang was still struggling in the field.

"Teacher, is it still early?"

Mo Shangyun let out a long breath: "It's just after six o'clock."

Xu Cang's expression changed: "Then let's go, it can't be too late."

"Don't you need to open a room to take a shower and change clothes?"

Xu Cang hurriedly waved his hands: "No, it's too time-consuming. I'll wash my face in the toilet on the plane and just change my clothes."

As he said that, Xu Cang patted the schoolbag on his back and said happily, "Everything is inside!"

Mo Shangyun looked at Xu Cang's tired smiling face, and said sincerely, "Xu Cang, is this still you?"

Previously, when Mo Shangyun met Xu Cang for the first time, he could find that Xu Cang was a very spiritual but loose-minded person.Why did he want to hang Xu Cang three times in a row, part of the reason why Mo Shangyun hated iron but steel.God gave Xu Cang a terrifying talent, but he wasted it without any burden, which made Mo Shangyun, who cherishes talent, feel disappointed and angry.

But at this moment, Mo Shangyun could clearly feel that Xu Cang had changed, a change from the inside out, a change rooted in his nature.

"Teacher, of course it's me." Xu Cang put one hand on the minibus, forcing out a smile: "Teacher, I'm tired from walking, can I get on the bus first?"

"Ah? Go, you go up first!"

As soon as Xu Cang heard that he could get in the car first, he helped the minibus and walked past Mo Shangyun.As they got closer, the smell from Xu Cang rushed into Mo Shangyun's nostrils.

It was a feeling of damp mixed with sweat and some animal body odor.

"Ah..." For some reason, Mo Shangyun sighed suddenly, as if he lost his strength just like Xu Cang.

When Xu Cang got in the car, Mo Shangyun sent a text message to the first co-pilot who had already returned to the hotel, asking them to come back, and then called the transportation control.

When the call was connected, Yunkong was just about to explain to Mo Shangyun, but Mo Shangyun intercepted Yunkong's words and asked, "Who is the number one on duty today?"

"Ah?" Yunkong didn't understand what Mo Shangyun wanted to do, but he still replied, "It's Mr. Lu."

"Lu Jinghua? I see." After speaking, he hung up the phone.After that, regardless of whether it was early or not, he called Lu Jinghua on the spot.

About 10 minutes later, the two co-pilots and the flight crew hurried back to the car. At this time, Mo Shangyun had already made a phone call and boarded the car.The first two co-pilots got into the car first, followed by the crew behind.

One of the flight attendants subconsciously covered his mouth and nose as soon as he got on the bus, as if he had asked about the unpleasant smell.Looking into the car again, he immediately saw that Xu Cang was all dirty and had fallen asleep with his head tilted.

Seeing that the flight attendant wanted to ask Xu Cang's identity, Mo Shangyun immediately pressed his right hand, made a silent gesture, and tried to lower his voice: "Be quiet and let him sleep."

The flight attendant was also clever, and he probably figured out the situation after turning his head. He even explained the situation to the flight attendant behind him, and then tiptoed into the compartment.

There was no noise at all when a group of eight people boarded the car, only Xu Cang's faint snoring could be heard in the car.
