Chapter 20: The Death Train
The night was extraordinarily peaceful. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The sky was bright, and Lu Qingchen put on his coat and left here. He took a pen and paper with him, and planned to take a train from Nazaki Village to the entrance of the village, so that he could observe the layout of the village in more detail along the way, so that he could improve his map.
The earliest train departs at 5:00 in the morning, even though the speed is fast, but there are many stations in the village, and some roads are not smooth, so it takes a lot of time to go back and forth.
Lu Qingchen walked back to the road that Yuno had brought him from, and walked all the way down, and he could see the railway station site encroached on by green vegetation.
The train station here is like a bus stop a little further away, with benches and guardrails. I think Nazaki Village used to be prosperous for a while, but now it is inevitable to become a pink skeleton.
Everything is gone.
The creeper stomped on the license plate, and the ivy swirled around the edge of the bench, exuding a faint scent of grass.
The canopy on the top is still doing its part, and the ebony backbone grows stubble after stubble of mushrooms, telling the vicissitudes of time.
There were three people on the station. One is dressed in a hat and is a peasant-like old man; One person was dressed in black and pants, wearing sunglasses and a peaked cap, it was difficult to see the appearance, and he was carrying a large black cloth on his back, and he didn't know what was hidden; The last one is a woman with long hair.
The woman has a pair of amber eyes, slender and spiritual. Lu Qingchen easily thought of the wolf monster from these eyes, and he immediately avoided the long-haired woman's gaze and walked into the platform with a hard head.
The woman also noticed him. This woman is very sharp, her breasts are still so straight, her waist is still so soft, and even a wrinkle can not be found on her face, and it is impossible to tell that this is a woman in her thirties.
Amber eyes glimpse the light dust of landing, consciously or unconsciously, Asians tend to have dark brown or gray eyes, and Europeans tend to be green and blue. So Lu Qingchen was even more jealous.
Could it be that she was last night's monster?
No. The monster obviously cut off an arm, and besides, her eyes didn't have any killing intent, she just stared at Lu Qingchen vigilantly. In contrast, the black-clothed man next to him who didn't show his true face was called a weird.
This person's hair is not short, and the dense stubble of the chin is uneven, giving people a very sloppy feeling. I don't know if you know Pu Shu's earlier appearance, you can't say that you are handsome with your conscience, you can only say that she looks very down-to-earth and looks a little sloppy, but in short, this person still has a lot of room for improvement on the basis of "handsome".
The man in black is very similar to Pu Shu, but his face is still thin, his cheekbones are slightly raised, and the greasy hair on his forehead looks down.
A large number of dark clouds have accumulated on the horizon, as if an earth-shattering catastrophe is brewing.
Old Blah lowered his hat and muttered, "It's raining." ā
Lu Qingchen said: "Uncle, where are you going?" ā
The old man said: "Hehe, I'll go to the farm to allocate some corn seeds, if you can sow more before the rain, just when the rain is brushed, the growth will definitely be good." ā
Lu Qingchen went to ask the woman again: "Where did this big sister go?"
The woman said, "Power Bureau." She didn't seem to want to talk much.
Lu Qingchen walked to the man in black this time, and just as he was about to speak, the man had already turned his back. Lu Qingchen felt more and more that this person was strange, so he said, "This is going to ......."
The man in black just stared at the sky.
The dark clouds on the horizon gathered and spread, bringing with them howling winds, and all flowers and plants swayed with them. His robes were also hunting.
Who is he?
After a long time, this man suddenly said: "The peach blossoms on the side of the mountain will bloom in a year. ā
Lu Qingchen said: "What does the peach blossom have to do with where you go?" ā
The voice of the man in black was old and heavy, like a shovel for the burial of the dead, "Then what does it matter to you where I go, and why should I tell you?" ā
Lu Qingchen stopped talking.
The man in black pulled the strap of the black cloth head and stood quietly on the right side of the platform. With this subtle movement, Lu Qingchen guessed that there was a slender item wrapped in the black cloth head.
Lightning tore through the sky, and a drizzle began to fall on the horizon.
The train kept coming around the corner with a "boom, boom" thunder.
The train only has three carriages, and the group goes directly to the front of the train to give the driver the ticket, and Lu Qingchen begins to understand the operation of the train here. The train detours about every two hours, and you pay in person like a big bus. Everyone only needs to pay the same price to sit for the entire trip.
There are only a dozen staff members and captains in the entire three trains to maintain.
The train staff paid on a daily basis, and today there were only about seven people working, and counting the conductor, there were eight staff members in total.
Lu Qingchen entered the carriage and found that there were not many people in the carriage. Maybe because it was morning, only some old men and women had inconvenient legs and feet, so they rushed to buy vegetables. Speaking of which, most of the residents of Nazaki Village are self-sufficient, and the market is not very popular, but where there is a demand, there is a market, and this principle is applicable anywhere in the world.
Thunder began to fall again.
The violent thunder instantly drowned everything, Lu Qingchen thought of the starling who had been killed by thunder and lightning, and felt the power of thunder and lightning, and Huang felt a little scary. The train started quickly in the rain.
Lu Qingchen looked at the surrounding scenery while drawing important places with a pen on the table.
He needs to draw each intersection and each branch, and the distance between each station can also be estimated in kilometers between stations. In this way, Lu Qingchen's map was even more perfect, he drew quickly, and suddenly his elbow was hit hard. It was the silent woman from before, this woman was in a hurry, and the man in black was closely followed behind her.
The two of them walked quickly past the carriage one after the other.
Lu Qingchen saw the man remove the black cloth and lock the door of the next carriage. He immediately noticed that something was wrong and shouted, "Hey! ā
The old women in front of them turned the vegetable basket and said in a slow tone: "Young man, what's wrong?"
Lu Qingchen quickly got out of his seat and said, "That person seems to have locked the door, I don't know what to do." ā
The old women said, "Huh? Lock the door. It's best to inform the commander and see if he can help. ā
There was indeed communication equipment in the car, and Lu Qingchen walked to the front to call, but this thing did not respond, and there was not even a stabbing sound of mechanical failure. The old women talked and laughed, and one said, "This thing is quite old, it's been ten years." "Haha, I thought it was broken last time, but it fell off with a light knock, Comrade Commander is very angry."
Lu Qingchen looked along the cable, "What?" "When was the cable cut? And how did he do it in full view, the incision was smooth and neat, obviously artificial.
Lu Qingchen slammed the door hard, but the door didn't move.
The old ladies just kept talking. "Grandma Li, are the cucumbers of the West family delicious?" "That fresh, I deliberately went to the cucumber today."
- "Ah! A terrible scream came from the previous carriage.
Lu Qingchen hammered the door hard and said in a low voice: "Damn." ā
It rained and thundered outside the car, and the car was silent.
The old women seemed to have been struck by lightning, and they closed their mouths tightly and did not dare to say another word. After a long time, he asked in a daze, "Young man, what's going on?" ā
