Chapter 331: Stopping the car halfway
The surroundings were silent and bleak, and there was not even a single figure on the road.
Yunkang felt cold all over, he tightened his shoulders, looked back as he walked, and waited for a long time, but he didn't see a car passing here.
It was getting darker, and the scattered weeds on the roadside were whirling in the wind, with the occasional street lamp flickering in a dim glow. Yunkang turned his head to look around, and suddenly had a feeling of helplessness and sadness, this is really a deserted ghost place where rabbits don't.
He was even a little skeptical, was this really a highway? Whether it's a county-level road or a township-level road, why don't you have a car.
After walking for about half an hour, Yunkang heard the sound of a car in the distance behind him, and the sound seemed to be a big car, which should be a freight truck on the night road.
These trucks usually travel at night and arrive in town before the early hours of the morning to make deliveries. So just take a ride and you'll be back in town tomorrow morning for a warm shower and a hearty breakfast.
Yun Kang couldn't help but feel shocked, he finally waited for the savior, if there was no car passing by tonight, he could only walk back to the city with two feet.
The sound of the car's motor is getting closer and closer, and the road is uneven, and a lot of sand and dust has accumulated, so the wheels are also jolting badly, making a "boom" sound, which is very harsh in the silence of the night.
But Yunkang didn't feel harsh when he heard such a voice, and he was overjoyed to have a truck come at this time.
He doesn't have a lot of requirements, and it's okay not to get into the cab, as long as the driver allows him to sit in the back of the car, and when the car takes him to the road near the city, he can change to another vehicle, and he is already satisfied.
Otherwise, trapped in this realm where there is no village in front of him and no store in the back, he really has a feeling of being abandoned by the world.
Yunkang heard the sound of the car coming quickly, and soon two shining lights appeared in the distance, at this time the sky was dark, and the two headlights of the car came all the way, which seemed very bright.
When the car drove over, Yunkang was worried that the driver would not be able to see him, so he stood in the middle of the road, waving his hands vigorously, trying to let the driver stop and give him a ride along the way.
"Boom, boom—"
A truck carrying goods came quickly, the driver sat in the cab, saw Yunkang standing in the middle of the road and waved, he scolded "stupid comparison", and immediately honked the car horn.
A middle-aged man sitting in the passenger seat held a cigarette in his mouth and said with a smile: "This kid doesn't want to die, ignore him and rush over." ”
The driver didn't mean to stop at all, the steering wheel spun slightly, and he stepped on the accelerator to speed up.
"Di Di Di-" The sound of the car horn continued, and it drove past Yun Kang with a "whew", and the sound of the horn shook his eardrums.
Yun Kang couldn't help frowning, seeing that the driver didn't pay attention to him at all, and the truck sped directly past him.
This driver is very skilled in driving, and someone stops the car in the middle of the road, but it can't stop him from stepping on the accelerator and speeding up.
The truck almost brushed past Yun Kang, and if he moved his steps slightly, he might be knocked out.
Yunkang was a little annoyed, even if the driver didn't want to take someone, he couldn't do it.
In the blink of an eye, the truck had already driven to the front, and Yunkang turned his head to look, only to see the headlights shining on the road, and a thick layer of dust and smoke rolled up behind the wheels.
If you miss this truck, you'll have to try your luck trying to stop another one, and maybe this one will be the only one passing by tonight. Yunkang knows that he must not let go of the opportunity, otherwise he will regret it.
Seeing the truck speeding away, getting farther and farther away from him, Yun Kang immediately lifted a breath of true qi from the dantian and chased after him.
The road was dimly lit, and there were dark dirt slopes on both sides of the road, and it was impossible to make out what was there. Yunkang didn't care about this, his eyes were fixed on the rear lights of the truck, and he ran all the way over.
The truck driver was talking to the middle-aged man, not paying attention to the situation behind the car, not knowing that someone was catching up.
When Yunkang almost chased after the car, the driver seemed to sense something, and glanced in the rearview mirror, only to see that it was dark, and he didn't find anything unusual.
The middle-aged man in the co-pilot told him not to be nervous, although these goods are valuable, but the items are very large, each item must be one hundred and ten kilograms, it is impossible for someone to steal things halfway.
The driver nodded and said, "It's better to be careful, if something goes wrong, you won't be able to eat and walk around." He tightened his grip on the steering wheel and continued to drive along the beaten path.
Yunkang's speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had already run to the back of the truck.
He may not be able to chase the truck for a long time based on his foot strength alone, but the road here is not smooth, which affects the speed of the truck, and it is not too far away at this time, so he did not have much effort and quickly caught up with the truck.
Behind the truck was a container with an iron latch across it, locking a large lock.
It's an old-fashioned container with a lot of horizontal edges on the edges that you can step on and step on.
Yun Kang glanced at it, and immediately his figure flashed, and he jumped onto the container with a "whoosh", stepped on the edge with his foot, and grabbed the iron latch tightly with one hand.
The driver in the cab heard a "bang", as if it was the sound of the container behind him, he was slightly startled and said, "What sound?" ”
The middle-aged man next to him pricked up his ears and listened, then exhaled and said, "Don't be surprised, it's normal for this broken car to drive to this broken road." ”
Yunkang used his divine sense to detect that the two were talking, and quickly stopped his movements, his body was tightly pressed against the door of the container, and he didn't move.
The driver listened carefully for a while, but there was no strange sound behind the car, and there was nothing unusual in the rearview mirror. Only then did he put his mind at ease, asked the middle-aged man for a cigarette and lit it, and drove leisurely while smoking a cigarette.
Yunkang waited for a while, quietly held the lock, and used the true air flow to break the lock ring, and the lock broke with a "click".
He wanted to break the lock with a fireball, but in order not to be noticed by the people in the cab, he tried not to make too much noise.
After the lock was broken, Yunkang lightly pulled out the long bolt on the iron door, and soon opened the two iron doors of the container, and he jumped into the container quietly.
After jumping into the container, he closed the two iron doors tightly, and there was a silent darkness inside, and he couldn't see his fingers.
Yunkang raised his palm, lit a cluster of flames to illuminate it, and his eyes scanned the past to find boxes of goods in the car.
The goods transported by this truck are very special, and they are packed tightly in square iron boxes. The tin boxes were stacked neatly on top of each other, each one meter long, one meter wide and one meter high, for a total of ten.
Ordinary goods are generally packed in cardboard boxes or wooden boxes, Yunkang feels a little strange, and it is very rare to use iron boxes to transport goods.
However, he is not a particularly curious person, in short, when people transport goods into the city, he is hitchhiking, and he manages what boxes people use to load goods.
Yun Kang found a gap next to the iron box, sat down cross-legged to rest, and planned to cultivate by the way.
He used the witch puppet as a live target for practice in the underground stone cave, and practiced the fireball technique and the wind blade knife repeatedly, and the spell had improved a lot.
The truck was speeding forward, and the middle-aged man in the driver and co-driver didn't notice that there was an extra person in the container, and the two chatted casually, feeling extremely relaxed.
They had been driving the truck all day, and the nerves were tense all the time, and when they saw that they were about to reach their destination, they were all happy.
The middle-aged man chatted with the driver, and after the smooth delivery, they had to drink a few more drinks, in order to transport this batch of goods, they were worried for several days, and they must relieve the pressure.
Yun Kang sat in the container in the back, happy and comfortable, he listened to the two people in the cab while exercising.
When the two of them talked about the goods, their tones were very nervous, and it seemed that these goods were some valuable things.
Yunkang felt a little itchy in his heart, what the hell was it? The cautious attitude of those two made him extremely curious.
He couldn't help but look at the tin box with his divine sense, and after his divine sense probed in, he only saw a dark patch, and he couldn't tell what was in the box at all.
Yun Kang withdrew his divine sense, slightly stunned, he has always encountered strange things recently, and every time he uses his divine sense, it is almost difficult to use.
He sighed deeply, after all, his skills were still low, so don't say anything, hurry up and cultivate and upgrade.
The truck drove "booming", and Yun Kang Tuna meditated, concentrating on cultivating for a great week.
The truck drove forward for a while, slowing down, turning into another road, and then slowly moving forward.
Yunkang pinched a trick with both hands, then opened his eyes, and used his divine sense to peek out of the container, and found that the truck had left the original road and was driving on a small road.
It was dark all around, and there wasn't even a street lamp.
Aren't trucks going to the city?
Yunkang couldn't help but be a little depressed, it seemed that he was not very lucky, he couldn't go back to the city directly, and he had to change trains halfway.
Just now, he had been concentrating on his cultivation, and he didn't pay attention to where the truck was turning from, and he didn't know which road to change to, and how far away it was from the main highway.
But no matter what, he had to get to the place with the truck first, and then talk about the transfer. If you're lucky, you might be able to find another car, but if you can't, spend the night in the car and wait until tomorrow to figure out something else.
This has always been Yunkang's principle of doing things, so I don't worry about where the truck goes.
He sat safely in the container, and the truck staggered forward, and soon came to a sprawling chemical plant.
Seeing the truck driving in through the two large iron gates, Yun Kang saw that there was no one left and right, so he quietly opened the door of the container, and took advantage of the darkness around him, no one found him, and hurriedly jumped out of the carriage.
At this time, the truck did not stop, and continued to drive forward until it reached the garage, before it "creaked" and stepped on the brakes and stopped steadily.
After Yunkang jumped out of the car, he dodged and hid in an empty factory next to him, of course he couldn't let people find the trace, otherwise it would be difficult to explain why he broke the lock of the container.
If you can't explain this, you have to be considered a thief.
The driver got out of the truck, and the middle-aged man in the co-pilot with a cigarette in his mouth also followed him out of the car, and the two walked to the back of the car.
Suddenly, the middle-aged man said "Huh", and the iron door of the container was actually open.
He took a few steps forward, and when he looked closely, sure enough, the iron door was opened, and the lock on it was gone.
The middle-aged man was startled, suddenly stopped, and couldn't help but cry out: "Damn!" ”
He threw away the cigarette butt, hurriedly opened the iron door of the container, took out a flashlight and shone it inside, then turned his head and said to the driver: "Go and prepare guys, someone is stealing goods." ”
The driver hurriedly ran back to the cab, took two iron plate hands, and handed one to the middle-aged man.
Both of them were very nervous, standing on both sides of the iron door of the container left and right, and the middle-aged man pulled his throat and shouted loudly: "Who's inside, get out of here quickly!" ”
