Chapter 90 Big Accident

"Rumble--"

Zhang Jinwu drove the GAZ truck skillfully and started it slowly.

In front of us is a rugged and winding road with a terrain difference of up to 200 meters, which is undoubtedly a double test of driving skills and psychological quality.

First there is a gentle downhill slope. Although the road is a bit rugged, it is relatively flat and wide.

Zhang Jinwu seemed very calm in the face of such road conditions. With many years of driving experience, he controlled the car skillfully.

This section of the journey was relatively safe. Zhang Jinwu controlled the speed of the car and lightly stepped on the brakes from time to time.

At the same time, pay attention to whether there are any wild animals rushing out from the left or right, and whether there are any large rocks on the road.

If you don't pay attention and turn the steering wheel in a panic, an accident may happen.

This gentle downhill section was not long, and soon there was a gentle turn in the road ahead.

Zhang Jinwu immediately slowed down the car and turned the steering wheel, driving the truck smoothly towards the curve.

After passing the curve, the steel bars on the carriage also moved a little, but it was not a big deal.

At the same time, Zhang Jinwu took this opportunity to lightly and heavily step on the brakes from time to time to gradually slow down the car.

Next is a long downhill slope with an extremely steep gradient. The road thereafter can only be trodden lightly unless there is an emergency. The carriage is loaded with steel bars.

This section of road is also where accidents frequently occur, and many drivers have lost their lives here.

The truck slowly drove off the smooth curve, followed by a high-speed downhill slope.

Li Kailang saw that the driver was driving faster and faster, and he began to get nervous again, worrying that the car would lose control because of the excessive speed.

However, Zhang Jinwu was not at all flustered. He held the steering wheel tightly and stared ahead intently.

Glance at the speedometer and tachometer from time to time, and when they reach a certain value, tap the brakes.

Doing this will not reduce the speed of the car, but it will allow Zhang Jinwu to better control the car.

When the car was going too fast, Zhang Jinwu not only stepped on the brakes regularly, but also drove the car to the dirt road next to it, using the friction of the dirt road to slow down the car.
This is the reason why Zhang Jinwu was able to drive smoothly so many times. He has also taught others, but others do not have as good control as him and often drive directly onto the dirt road.

Zhang Jinwu looked ahead intently with a nervous expression. His eyes, hands, and feet worked together to control the car. Every movement was steady and powerful.

Suddenly, Zhang Jinwu glanced at the tachometer and suddenly found that the speed was abnormal.

"Not good!" Zhang Jinwu thought to himself that something was wrong and stepped on the brakes repeatedly.

However, the car's speed did not drop as expected, but continued to remain at a high level, and braking alone was not enough.

Downshift immediately, using engine braking in conjunction with the brakes.

However, despite the slowdown, the effect was not significant.

At this time, Li Kailang also discovered that there was a problem with Zhang Jinwu's car - Zhang Jinwu's car caught fire.

The high-speed friction between the brake pads and tires produced sparks, black smoke, and a burning smell.

Zhang Jinwu looked in the rearview mirror and knew that the situation was not good, but he absolutely could not slam on the brakes now.

Once the brakes are stepped on slam, the steel bars on the car body will inevitably follow inertia and rush straight into the cab.

This is the experience left by drivers who died in the past.

"calm down!"

Zhang Jinwu kept telling himself that he had to keep a clear head at this moment. He had no time to worry or panic.

In order to help Li Kailang find the way and to let him see clearly how he operated, Zhang Jinwu specially reduced the weight.

However, he had not expected that the car would have such a problem, and the top priority now was how to escape from danger.

Without the help of brakes, Zhang Jinwu had to drive on the dirt road, trying to slow down the car by using the friction of the dirt.

Zhang Jinwu had no choice but to drive on a dirt road, trying to slow down the car by using the friction of the dirt.

However, this method has little effect!
Zhang Jinwu knew that he couldn't just sit there and wait for death. He didn't have time to find other solutions and had to stop the car before the next bend.

Otherwise, once you run out of the lane, there will be a drop of 20 to 30 meters, and no one will survive.

Looking at the GAZ truck that has been with him for a long time, Zhang Jinwu said it is possible not to care.

But considering his own safety and the apprentice behind him, Zhang Jinwu knew that he could no longer stop the car in a normal way.

With a grit of teeth, Zhang Gasi, who was driving on the dirt road, suddenly turned the steering wheel, and then suddenly turned it back to the center.

The car suddenly lost control at high speed and swayed from side to side.

Taking this opportunity, Zhang Jinwu turned the steering wheel all the way to the right.

“Bang!!!” Sparks flew everywhere.

The car instantly tilted to the right, fell to the ground with a loud bang, and violent sparks burst out. The right side of the car was in close contact with the ground.

Fortunately, the rollover also reduced the speed of the car.

Zhang Jinwu breathed a sigh of relief, but knew it was not over yet and he had to stop before turning, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

However, he had lost control of the car and was unable to perform any maneuvers.

Li Kailang, who was behind Zhang Jinwu, was also extremely anxious when he saw this scene.

But Zhang Jinwu's car was too far away from him and he couldn't catch up for a while.

Looking at the things in the space ring, none of them can be used.

But Zhang Jinwu is an old master after all, with rich experience, and he suddenly turned the steering wheel.

Suddenly, the car rolled over, which made Li Kailang breathe a sigh of relief, but it was far from over.

He remembered that the next bend was not far away, and looking at the speed of the car, he was not sure if he could stop before the bend.

Li Kailang couldn't just sit there and wait for death, so he immediately accelerated and drove in front of Zhang Jinwu's car.

Fortunately, Zhang Jinwu's car was not spinning, but going straight down.

Just as Zhang Jinwu was trying to regain control of the car, he suddenly felt a dark spot in front of him. It turned out that Li Kailang was driving in front of him.

Li Kailang's car was driving steadily in front of Zhang Jinwu's car, and the rear of the car was gradually approaching the front of Zhang Jinwu's car.

Looking through the rearview mirror, Li Kailang's tension grew. He knew that this action was very dangerous, but he had to do it.

Seeing that the car was very close, Li Kailang stepped on the brakes decisively. The car slowed down instantly and Zhang Jinwu's car crashed forward.

There was a loud bang, and Zhang Jinwu's car slowed down significantly due to the collision. However, the steel bar behind him was pushed forward a little by the collision.

Li Kailang did not hesitate for a moment and immediately moved his car away from Zhang Jinwu's car and waited for his master's car to stabilize.

Didn't Li Kailang know about this dangerous move? Of course he knew, but his master was sitting in the car, could Li Kailang just ignore it?
Li Kailang's confidence lies in his [Driving Mastery], which enables him to clearly understand the current situation.

Li Kailang is sure and certain that he can succeed.

After continuous pauses and contacts, Zhang Jinwu's speed gradually slowed down.

Li Kailang looked forward and found that the distance to the bend was very close. He took a deep breath and thought to himself:
"One last time!"

This time, Li Kailang did not stop. He stuck close to the front of Zhang Jinwu's car and gently stepped on the brakes.

His eyes were fixed on the rearview mirror, observing whether Zhang Jinwu's car made any unusual movements.

After confirming that there was no problem, he gradually stepped on the brakes to slow down the car slowly.

"Squeak-"

As the sound of the brakes became more and more harsh, the smoke produced by the friction between the tires and the ground became thicker and thicker.

But Li Kailang didn't care, success or failure depended on this one move!
"boom--"

Li Kailang finally slammed on the brakes, causing a sudden vibration.

Finally, Li Kailang's car stopped about 10 meters before the bend.

Without caring too much, Li Kailang immediately pulled the handbrake and got out of the car.

"Master! Master!" Li Kailang shouted anxiously.

When we got to the back, we saw that the steel bars of the car had passed through the front windshield and were exposed outside. Even Zhang Jinwu was trapped in the steel bars.

Li Kailang was shocked and rushed to the front of the car.

"Cough-cough-"

Two coughs from the cab brought him back to his senses.

"Master, are you okay?"

"I'm fine!" Zhang Jinwu's answer was a little weak, but he was full of energy and it was obvious that there was nothing serious.

"Don't worry about me, put out the fire first." Zhang Jinwu ordered.

"No, Master, let me rescue you first!"

"I'm fine, I can get out by myself, you put out the fire quickly! Go!" Zhang Jinwu shouted loudly.

But this sound showed that Zhang Jinwu was not in danger, so Li Kailang had no choice but to do as he was told and put out the fire first.

Zhang Jinwu's driver's seat was pressed down underneath, so the door naturally couldn't be opened.

The passenger door was blocked by steel bars and could not be opened.

Fortunately, although Zhang Jinwu's body was squeezed by the steel bars, his lower limbs were not injured.

Zhang Jinwu bent his knees and pushed hard against the glass in front of him.

"Crash-"

Suddenly, the glass fell like snowflakes, and Zhang Jinwu moved it out little by little while holding the steel bar.

Because Li Kailang stopped the car from time to time, it gave Zhang Jinwu some time to react. Although steel bars kept being inserted into the cab, the slow speed allowed him to avoid them.

In the end, Li Kailang braked hard, causing the steel bar to move a greater distance, but Zhang Jinwu successfully avoided it, but he couldn't stretch his legs.

However, as a result, dozens of small holes were punched into the glass in front, causing the glass to shatter.
Today’s glass is not as strong as that of later generations!

On the other side, Li Kailang hurried to put out the fire.

Fortunately, although the fire was large, there was no flammable material and it did not spread to other places.

However, the high-speed friction caused the steel bars to become red and hot, making firefighting difficult.

Fortunately, the gasoline was not on this side, but if the fire was not extinguished in time, it would likely cause an explosion.

For a moment, Li Kailang felt at a loss as to where to start.

At this time, the sound of glass breaking was heard. Li Kailang looked back and saw that Zhang Jinwu had come out. Although his clothes were damaged, he was generally fine.

The most important thing is that he didn't bleed, which made Li Kailang feel much more relieved.

"Master, are you okay?" Li Kailang walked forward and asked with concern.

Zhang Jinwu waved his hands and said, "It's okay, let's put out the fire first. There's a stream in front of the bend, go there and get the tools. Go ahead!
"Okay!" Upon hearing this, Li Kailang took action immediately.

As the burial place of the driver, there are more things to do here, but there are also some guarantees.

The stream was discovered during a previous firefighting operation. In order to avoid moving the firefighting tools around, some of them were placed there.

It mainly consists of a long water pipe and some shovels and buckets.

Zhang Jinwu has experienced this situation many times, but this is the first time it has happened to him.

After observing for a while, he thought about the best solution.

Soon, Li Kailang returned with a running water pipe, a shovel and a bucket.

"I'll put out the fire, you go get some soil!"

The two men divided the work, Zhang Jinwu poured water to put out the fire, and Li Kailang shoveled the soil and then swept it on the steel bars.

It was difficult to completely extinguish the fire with water alone, especially the red-hot steel bars, but with the help of moist soil, the fire was finally brought under control.

An hour later, the fire was finally put out and the fuel tank was spared.

The transportation mission failed. The 1.5 tons of steel bars in the entire vehicle were unusable. Even the vehicle could not be used. They had to dismantle the parts and use them to repair other vehicles.

Seeing his beloved car scrapped, Zhang Jinwu felt an indescribable pain in his heart.

"Alas!" Zhang Jinwu sighed and said to Li Kailang, "Okay, let's go back first. When we get back to the factory, we'll find someone to help transport it away."

As he said that, he got into Li Kailang's car and the two returned the same way.

Although this road is very dangerous going down the mountain, it is safe going up the mountain, and it was easy for Li Kailang to drive the empty car back.
