Chapter 3 Communication Breakdown
The two brothers talked for a while, and there was a shout outside the door, telling Chen to startle.
Chen Jing returned to the office, "What's the matter?" Brother Xu. ”
Chen Jing called Brother Xu is a physical education teacher about 30 years old.
"Xiao Li from the teaching office just now came over, there will be no classes tomorrow for the time being, and the school will be on vacation, but our teacher will come to the school tomorrow afternoon for a meeting, and our physical education teacher can go first. Xu Mingzhi said.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Xu, I'll invite you to dinner when I turn around. Chen said with a smile.
"Let's go, let's go out for dinner first. Chen Yiming said to Chen Jing.
"Mom and Dad didn't say you had a busy day. Chen asked in surprise.
"It's a little busy, and there are a lot of lists during the holidays, but I'm definitely going back to the Dragon Boat Festival. ”
"Don't be too tired, pay attention to your body, otherwise you will end up earning so much money for others. Chen was shocked and teased.
", I was going to take you to a big meal, but now it's gone!" Chen Yiming scolded with a smile: "You don't go back?"
"Look at the school arrangement, if the vacation is long, I'll go back, brother, what's the big meal?"
"Have you ever eaten a roast rabbit? Chen Yiming said.
"Not really, but I've seen a lot of photos. ”
Chen Yiming first used the landlord's small pink battery car to take Chen Jing back to the community, then locked the battery car and then went upstairs to return the key to the landlord.
"School may be closed tomorrow? Okay, I know, thank you. "Friendly hand-waving from the landlady.
Chen Yiming and Chen Jing were about to take a taxi to the hotel, but there were a few taxis on the street.
It took a long time to get a car, and after getting into the car, the master asked them where they were going.
"Hongfang Road in the northern suburbs. Chen Yiming said.
Who knew that the master quickly shook his head.
"Little brother, I'm about to change shifts, this is too far, you can change a car!"
“......”
"And my car is out of gas, I'm going to refuel. Seeing that they didn't get out of the car, the master added.
"Master, I've lived in the local area for so long, I don't know when the shift will change. Shifts change between 3:30 and 5 p.m. And you still have half the oil in the oil gauge. Chen Yiming pointed to the oil gauge and said.
The master's face froze, knowing that he had encountered this kind of more seriousness, and couldn't help but say with some distress: "Little brother, don't embarrass me, don't believe you change a taxi and ask, who would dare to take passengers to the suburbs!"
"You're still afraid that we're bad guys! Now in a society governed by the rule of law, you should also have a dash cam in your car, so what's there to worry about in broad daylight. Chen was a little angry and said unceremoniously.
"That's not what I'm talking about. The taxi driver hesitated for a moment, and then said cautiously: "Now the city government does not allow us to taxi to the suburbs, just issued a notice." ”
"And I heard from other masters who came back from the suburbs that now the outskirts of the suburbs are full of forests, and the highways are blocked!"
"It's all forests? How could it be, these trees grew out of nowhere. ”
"I heard from a master who came back from the suburbs that it seemed to come suddenly after dark, and now he can't get out of the city. ”
Chen was shocked to find a certain point, "Master, you taxi masters can still communicate with each other, and you still have a signal on your mobile phone?"
"There's no signal, it seems that everyone has no signal, the whole Shanshui City is like this, but our taxis usually have walkie-talkies. The master in the seat took out the walkie-talkie.
Chen Yiming's heart sank, and the signal network of the entire city was paralyzed in a large area It was too exaggerated, which was almost undesirable, Shanshui City was a second-tier city.
"Master, where did you buy the walkie-talkie?"
"I bought it online. The master said with a smile: "Now that logistics is so developed, and things on the Internet are cheap, they must be bought online, but if you want to buy walkie-talkies, I know a place, Department Store Trade City." ”
"Then it's troublesome for the master to lead the way. Chen Yiming said.
"Okay, I won't play the meter, just count thirty yuan. The master said.
"That's right, master, I'll give you three hundred yuan, and I'll charter your car this afternoon, okay?" Chen Yiming said.
The taxi driver thought about it for a moment and readily agreed.
"Well, I don't actually make much, I usually make so much in an afternoon. The master explained.
"Then let's go to the department store trade city first?" The master moved very quickly, and directly pulled the handbrake and stepped on the accelerator to set off.
"Brother. Chen was puzzled.
"Listen to me, let's go buy something first. Chen Yiming said to Chen Jing.
"Okay. Chen Jing didn't say much, he believed his brother.
"Master, what's the situation when it's all forests outside the city?" Chen Yiming chatted with the master who was driving.
"I don't know, but I just listened to the other masters on the walkie-talkie, they said that the highway leading to the outside of the city has all grown trees, not only the highway, anyway, as long as the road leading to the outside of the city has become a forest. ”
"It's so fake! Chen was shocked and didn't believe it.
"Hehe, I didn't believe it at first, you should have that summoning book. "The master is very good, and Chen Yiming chatters with them. "If you think about it, it's not unacceptable that even such a magical thing has come out, and it is not unacceptable for the outside of the city to become a forest, haha. ”
Suddenly, there was a sizzling sound on the walkie-talkie that was placed aside.
Then a terrified voice came from inside: "Don't go to the suburbs, don't go to the suburbs for a little money, the suburbs died just now!"
The voice of the man who spoke was terrified, and it did not seem to be fake.
Immediately afterwards, there were many concerned greetings from the taxi driver on the intercom.
"Lao Huang, are you okay?"
"Where are you right now? ”
"You're all right. ”
After a while, Lao Huang's relieved voice came from the intercom: "I'm fine, I drove away." I'll tell you that a passenger just said he was going to the suburbs, and I persuaded him not to go, thinking that I was going to sit on the ground and raise the price, but this is obviously the rule just conveyed above. In the end, he said that he would add 50 yuan to me, and that the neighborhood where he lived was not at the exit of the highway, but it was also at the edge of the city, so I thought it would be fine to send people over, and he paid to get out of the car and then I was a little thirsty, so I went to the convenience store next to it to buy a bottle of water. ”
Then I saw a group of green-skinned dwarfs with sticks in their hands rushing out of the forest and beating him like crazy. ”
"You're talking about goblins?" said the master on the walkie-talkie, how could this description be so similar to his summoned beast.
"Goblins, do you know the name?"
"It's the summoned beast summoned in the Book of Summoning. ”
"Hey, when you reminded me of that, I found that it seems to be true. ”
"No, what kind of grudge is this, is it a group of people buying murder. ”
"It's horrible. ”
A group of drivers are talking on the walkie-talkie channel. Because of the Book of Callings, they all believe that these goblins are artificially called.
"At first, there was an aperture on the outside of the man's body to protect him, and he seemed to have summoned his summon beast as well, but his summon beast was quickly killed and then the aperture was gone. The columbs behind me seemed to be crazy and ran towards me, so frightened that I quickly drove away. ”
Chen Yiming, who was listening to the conversation of the drivers, and Chen was shocked, and the brothers glanced at each other.
They were suddenly glad that the two brothers were in the same city, so they could also have a care.
When he came to the trade city, the master parked the car in the parking lot, got out of the car and joined the two brothers, after all, he hadn't paid the fare...... What if you run away?
I found several shops to find a walkie-talkie, and the boss claimed that the entire trade city still sells walkie-talkies.
"Hey, boss, the entire trade city is out of power, and you still have electricity in your house? Chen Yiming was curious.
The boss laughed when he heard this, "A friend of mine sells this, so he got one from him, I don't want to sell the generator myself, if you want it, I can introduce it to you." ”
