There are more and more people in the waiting hall, and the situation is becoming more and more chaotic.

Just when he felt that his body was finally warmer, only two meters away from them, two big men fought for a tin seat.

Some of the people around watched indifferently, some watched excitedly, and some even applauded loudly, and the already noisy waiting hall exploded.

The old shouts, complaints, insults, and cries grew louder, and they merged with the cheers of the crowd and the insults during the fight between the two of them into an overwhelming wave of sound that shook his ears with pain.

He closed his eyes and covered his ears, he didn't want to see everything in front of him anymore, he didn't want to hear all the noise anymore, but those sights penetrated his eyelids, those sounds penetrated his eardrums, and directly hit his immature and sensitive mind.

For the first time in his life, Xu Xincheng felt a suffocating sense of depression, disgust and fear, and at the same time, he had a very complex feeling about the situation of himself and his parents, which contained sourness, grievances, pain, and resentment......

The three policemen hurried over, and finally passed through the crowd on the third floor and the outer three floors, and at this time, the two of them had already beaten each other to the point that their noses were blue and their faces were swollen, and the corners of their mouths were bloody.

It took a lot of effort for the police to stop the brawl between the two, and then took them away, and the crowd of onlookers booed the police for a while, and someone shouted: "Damn, the show has been ruined by you." ”

After the two were taken away, the hustle and bustle in the waiting hall not only did not improve, but became more and more serious.

More and more tourists continue to pour into the hall, which is only about 1,500 square meters, and every time someone opens the glass door to enter, the biting cold wind will take the opportunity to blow in from the outside......

---------

In an extremely long and painful ordeal, the three of them waited in the waiting hall for seven hours. Just as he felt about to despair, the radio rang out and their train had finally arrived.

In order to evacuate more passengers, in order to allow more people to get on the train, the station master announced that passengers who had originally bought the next train would also be allowed to board the train, and as a result, the scene in the waiting hall continued to play out in the cramped iron car.

In the carriage, shouting, complaining, invective, and crying continued to invade his ears, and expressions of helplessness, anxiety, irritability, anger, and pain on people's faces continued to break into his eyes.

After getting on the bus, his parents gave up their seats to the two elderly people, and they took turns to sit with him on the only remaining seats.

The train was much warmer than the waiting hall, but the problem was that the air here was badly uncirculated, and the air was filled with all kinds of smells, such as the smell of instant bowl noodles, the smell of spicy fries, the smell of spicy sausages, and many other strange or unpleasant smells, all mixed together, and drilled straight into his nose, and he felt nausea after nausea, and retched several times.

Seeing this, his mother hurriedly took out a thermos cup from the backpack she was carrying and gave him a few sips of water, but the water had already become cold as frost, and when he drank it, he couldn't help but shiver a few times.

Xu Xincheng suddenly felt that the nausea in his stomach had increased a little, and he hurriedly said that he needed to go to the bathroom.

At this time, the carriage was densely packed with people as far as the eye could see, and the aisle was so crowded that he couldn't squeeze through it at all.

The father thought for a moment, said that he was opening the way in front of him, and told him to squeeze forward after him. Their seats were in the middle of the carriage, and it took a lot of effort for my father to get him to the bathroom door, and he waited in line at the door for more than ten minutes before it was their turn.

As soon as he entered the bathroom, all he saw was filthy filth, and his nose smelled a disgusting stench, and his stomach suddenly turned upside down, and he was so disgusted that he threw himself on the basin and vomited violently......

Ten minutes later, it took a lot of effort for my father to get him back to his seat.

His father gave him a few sips of hot water he had just drawn from the water heater, and he felt better, and then he fell asleep in a daze.

--------

In a violent shaking, Xu Xincheng woke up.

It was the middle of the night, most of the lights in the carriage had been turned off, and the noise in the carriage had largely subsided.

He looked at his father, who was standing next to him and his mother, who was standing and dozing, and then turned his head to look at his mother, who was asleep on the back of the seat, and looked at the tired faces of the two of them, and he thought to himself: "If our family is richer, we can buy a sleeper ticket, and if we have more money, we can also fly, so that my parents will not suffer such a great sin." ”

Thinking of this, that complicated feeling surged up in his heart again, and it was much, much stronger than the previous one, and there was strong sourness, strong grievance, strong pain, and strong resentment......

His vision was blurred, his eyes were moist, and tears could not help but burst out of his eyes, and he quickly wiped them away and ordered himself to stop them, he could not let his parents see that he was crying.

He turned his head to look out the window, the mountains and forests on the side of the road were dark and silent, the vast night sky was as gloomy as ink, and he fell asleep in a daze after exhaustion.

---------

Due to line failures and other reasons, the train drove much slower than normal, and the original journey of more than 7 hours turned out to be more than 12 hours.

When the train arrived in Guangzhou, it was noon the next day, and what was supposed to be an 11-hour journey that was supposed to be full of joy turned out to be a 25-hour journey of pain and suffering.

When they arrived at the Guangzhou Railway Station, all three of them were exhausted, and they dragged their heavy bodies and walked slowly from the station to the outside with the dense crowd.

When he walked to the railway station square, Xu Xincheng saw a scene that shocked him, the huge square was crowded with black and oppressive crowds, the size of the crowd here was at least 50 times that of the waiting hall of his hometown, and there should be tens of thousands of people.

He suddenly remembered a scene he had seen in a documentary about ants, in which two scientists put tens of thousands of black ants in a transparent glass case with a volume of only 3 cubic meters, and then opened a small exit of only 3 square centimeters.

As long as they pass through that small exit, the ants can come to a large expanse of grass, and tens of thousands of small ants will swell towards that small exit together, like a black tide surging towards the only exit.

Xu Xincheng suddenly felt that he himself was a little ant, his parents were also little ants, and everyone in the square of Guangzhou Railway Station was a little ant.

The three of them were just three small ants among the tens of thousands of ants, three little ants squeezing through the small exit with difficulty.
