After parting ways with Wang Shizhen, Du Heng drove down the winding mountain road towards the Qianying Brigade below Wangjiazui.
The distance between the two brigades was not too far, but the mountain road had many curves, so Du Heng could not drive very fast. It took him about twenty minutes for the car to gradually pick up speed and reach the territory of the Qianying Brigade.
The Qianying Brigade was composed of three natural villages. The village clinic was in the First Brigade, which was located between the Third Brigade and Brigade 2. According to their current route, they had to pass through Jiangjiagou of the Third Brigade to reach the village clinic.
Jiangjiagou had flat terrain, with the road passing through the village, flanked by houses on both sides.
Usually, at this time of day, everyone would be slowly heading home. Men would be feeding sheep and livestock, while women would be starting to cook. The roads would be practically deserted.
