Chapter 988: Strange Town
"What are you going to do?" the old security guard was taken aback.
"A few of them talked to me very well, and said that when I returned to China, I would talk to my family on their behalf, but they didn't have time to ask, so they went. ”
"Which ones?" the security guard looked at me suspiciously.
"It's the six who went down the mine, and they said they were working with paper-wrapped crystal mines. "Of course, I can't say that I'm also in the mine.
The two security guards looked at each other, a little hesitant, and I continued: "They are all Chinese, it is not easy in foreign countries, you can help, two big brothers." ”
"Well, okay, you wait, I'll ask. The old security guard went in.
"Let's go in too, my car is still in there, and I'll drive back by the way." I followed.
"Good. "The security guard opened the door and I drove the van over.
We waited at the door, smoking and chatting with the young security guard, but the security guard was cautious and didn't answer anything, just laughing.
After a while, the old security guard came out, took a dozen pieces of paper in his hand, there were materials on the paper, and there were photos, and said: "These are the information of all the dead in this mining disaster, the above six are the workers who pack the ore, and the following ones are mining in the pit, you can take them all." ”
I took it and looked at it one by one, the youngest was fifty-three, the oldest was sixty-two, and when he arrived in the sixtieth year, he even went to a foreign country, and in the end the deceased went back.
"Will their bodies be sent back?"
"Of course, otherwise how to explain it to their family, but it should be cremated before sending it back. The old security guard said.
"Got it, thank you. "I turned around and took some food and household items from the van and gave them to the two security guards, who still shirked it, but it was really remote and it was very inconvenient to buy things, so the two of them accepted it and waved goodbye to us.
In the car, my grandfather looked at me holding those resumes all the time and asked, "Do you need grandpa's help to do something?"
"I was mixed in with the workers, and I lied that I was a newcomer, but my actual age and family members told me the truth, and after hearing this, they kept persuading me not to do it, and let me come up, saying that this work can only be done by old people like them, because this crystal mine will radiate, and it will kill people, I am still young, there are old people, and there are young people, and then I went to the bottom of the mine, and the six of them said that they took my share of the work for me, and let me stay away from it, so as not to be irradiated. "My voice was a little choked, the people I met in Pingshui would care so much, but in the end they ended up like this, or because of me.
"I know, we all know, we were in the saucer at the time. Grandpa sighed and said, "Later, I will ask the owner of Dafeng Tea House to find their family members according to these addresses and give each family some money, which is the only thing we can do." ”
"Well, good. I nodded and said, "Let's give these people who are mining in the pit together." ”
"Okay. Grandpa nodded, took the introduction, and then persuaded me: "Don't blame yourself too much, this fate is destined, and they can be regarded as relieved." ”
"I don't understand, how can it be so decent, there will be such a mine marked on the mural of Wu Mu's suicide note?" I suddenly remembered this, and then thought of those crystal mines, and I said, "Could this be a trap?"
"What trap?" the others looked at me.
"The suspicious tomb arranged by Chengling was arranged as a trap inside, and then the tomb robbers were lured to dig it, and then died here. I said casually: "Because there must be metal on the tool of our inverted bucket, and this metal will melt when it encounters the radiation of the crystal ore, and this radiation will also make people sick, so I feel that this crystal ore is either specially buried, or this crystal ore is natural, and they deliberately found such a place and arranged it as a suspicious tomb and became a trap." ”
"It's not that there is no such possibility, it's just that this place has collapsed, and even if it really becomes a tomb, it will be difficult to go down. Grandpa said: "What's more, there is a company mining here, which is easy to find." ”
"The four foreign colleagues who rescued me should also be rushing to Chengling, but they collapsed, and they could only turn around and leave. I said casually.
"Yes, definitely. Grandpa nodded, turned on his phone, and looked at the map on his phone.
There are several points marked on this map, and these points are the same shape as the points in the crystal field.
"Maybe the person who carved Wu Mu's suicide note in the tomb of the living dead was also not sure which one was really Chengling, so he marked them one by one. Grandpa said.
"Perhaps, we can only find them one by one, but if each one is as dangerous as a crystal ore, it will be difficult to do. "I said as I drove the car, don't really say, this off-road vehicle is better to drive than the truck, the truck is driven by the fat man, followed by the off-road vehicle.
"That's it, this one on the map, it's closest to us. Grandpa said, pointing to the phone, and then handed it to me to look at it.
"Okay, listen to you. I nodded, in fact, there was only one road in front of me, I had no choice, and this road was still a dirt road, only two lanes, quite narrow, if you encounter a large car, it will be quite difficult to drive.
Because it is a night road, so the speed is not fast, when I arrived at the place marked on the map, I found that it was a very, very small town, but it was only eleven o'clock at night, the town was already quiet, the only thing that was still lit was a restaurant, and there was a gas station.
Our car stopped at the door of the hotel, but we didn't expect the hotel to start packing up at this time and preparing to close.
The fat man hurriedly got out of the car, rushed up to stop the boss who was about to close, and said: "Boss, this big night, your family has food, you must not close, so we have to wait until we finish eating." ”
"No, no, no, this is our rule, before twelve o'clock in the evening, it must close, you go to another house. The boss had a non-negotiable tone.
"Boss, take a look for yourself, are there any other homes in this neighborhood besides you?" the fat man's stomach kept growling.
"There's no way, you'll have to figure it out for yourself. The boss said casually: "You'd better find a place to stay quickly, and don't go to bed more than twelve o'clock." ”
"Why?" everyone was taken aback.
"No why, let's go. After saying that, with a click, the boss closed the door, and then even the lights went out, which was very unkind.
Then there was a gas station in front of us, we drove over, and found that the staff was also about to call it a day, and the fat man hurriedly shouted: "Wait first, fill up our oil and then get off work, it's hard." ”
The gas station is not big, there are only three machines, ninety-two, ninety-five, and diesel engines.
The staff member spoke Mandarin in thick Mongolian and could barely understand: "Hurry up, we'll get off work soon." ”
Then I filled up the two cars with gas, but I didn't expect that there was still Grandpa Mao here.
The fat man casually asked: "Big brother, why do you collect it so early here, it's only less than twelve o'clock, your gas station is closed, if there is a car to refuel at night, what should I do?"
"Then there's no way, who told them not to come early, you know, this is the prairie, not many people come here, so rest early. ”
"Oh. We nodded and asked, "Is there a place to eat over here?"
"No, it's just a restaurant, the restaurant is closed, and there's nothing to eat anywhere. After he finished speaking, he got on the motorcycle, and then Whistling left, and before leaving, he said again: "Go to bed quickly, you must go to bed before twelve o'clock, and don't stay up past twelve o'clock." ”
"Why?" he walked away before we could finish our words.
