Chapter 338: Iron Car
Chapter 338 Iron Car
From the afternoon the car began a bumpy journey, in the middle of a little twists and turns, arrived in Penglai, Shandong when it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening, Nizi was very careful, but also introduced me to a small hotel, the owner of the hotel is a distant relative of Nizi, is a widow, he pulls two and a half sons. I was very enthusiastic when I saw me, and I was specially accommodated in the room inside.
"You're welcome, just treat this place as your own home, I treat Nizi like my own daughter, it's all a family, don't see outside." The widow said eagerly, "Having said that, I still gave her an extra hundred dollars, just to live in peace, and the people of the small place, grateful to Dade for leaving." I slept well this night, with Ji Ziyang helping me guard the door, I slept very soundly, and made up for all the sleepiness of the previous day.
The next day the weather was not very good, looking overcast, so that I felt that the whole person was not in spirit, I asked the distance, it would take about half a day to go to Chaoshui Town, the widow was also worried that I was not safe on the road alone, and found a female driver I knew, who drove a taxi, and occasionally took over private work, so that she could send me over. The road was peaceful, nothing went wrong, so there is no need to say more for the time being. When I arrived at Chaoshui Town, there were not many people in this town, a very small place, a typical urban-rural junction, I didn't say where I was going, I gave the female driver the fare, and let her go back. I walked around the town, first familiarized myself with the illusion, and on the edge of a small square, I saw quite a few taxis, but although they were taxis, I noticed that anyone asked about the destination. Drivers will quote a price and will not be metered. I leaned in and said where I was going, and the driver looked at me and waved my hand without speaking.
I didn't understand what was going on, I changed to another car, and it was the same situation, when I was at a loss, an elderly looking driver greeted me.
"Girl, are you going to Tide No. 1?" His voice turned out to sound like standard Mandarin.
"Yes, master. Are you going? I quickly asked.
"Girl, you're a foreigner. Why did you come here at this time, and now there is no big set at this time, and there will be a little more until the weekend, as for the tide No. 1 you said. We don't usually know anyone here. The place was in the mountains. No one goes there on weekdays. The driver said.
"Master, I have an urgent matter and have to go. Is there anything you can do? "My tone is like a soft girl.,Usually uncles don't have any resistance to Lori.ć
"Girl, I see that you are also in a hurry, I don't dare to go to that place, I heard that there is a ghost house there, not to mention that ordinary people don't know it, even if they know it, they don't dare to go. But if we fall in love, I'll give you a ride, but fortunately you met me, and you were lucky. The old driver said.
So I got into the old driver's car, and when I got in the car, I found that the car was very clean, and there was air freshener, and there was a paper pump in the back seat. In order to learn more about the situation, I talked to the old driver.
During the chat, I learned that the old driver was a party member, a former teacher in the town, and now retired, who occasionally drove here to pick up students from school, and everyone in this town knew him. The master said here
Some people go into the mountains once in a while, and he doesn't know if I'm lucky or not today.
"Master, what are these people doing in there?" I asked.
"Hey, isn't there a ghost house in it, I heard that there used to be a big family, and their ancestral grave was in that mountain, and the people who entered the mountain were all there to get some treasure." The master said.
I was shocked, what he said was the ancestral grave of our old Jiang family. "Master, you said that the ancestral tomb of that big family is not an official family, what treasure will there be?" I asked.
"How to say this clearly, we don't know, it's evil, but no one really gets anything. But this is not the most evil, I heard that the people who went to the mountain either did not come out, or after they came out, they were crazy, so there were fewer people who went into the mountain over the years. The master said.
"Master, then you said that I want to go into the mountain, can I find a way today?" I asked.
"Girl, it's not Doha that I asked, what are you doing in the mountains?" The master asked.
"The master won't tell you, I also came here for the cemetery, the grave of our ancestors is at the foot of this mountain, and now I want to move out, but my parents are old, and there is no way to get it, so I came here. I get a headache just thinking about it. I casually made up a reason, but the master didn't ask anything, I guess he was already suspicious, but he didn't expose me.
"I'll tell you, girl, you're in luck." The old master suddenly smiled and said, "Did you see the car in front of you, that wave of people entered the mountain." ā
I looked at the direction that the master pointed to, there was a car parked there, if it could also be called a car, it was a modified pickup truck, and there was a kind of iron box behind it, I don't know what it was, looking at the special soil, but it was particularly in line with the local atmosphere that this kind of countryside should have.
"That's an old friend of mine, there was originally a road into the mountain, but then because the mountain road collapsed, there was no road, so there was only one dirt road in and out, and many cars didn't dare to run, and only this one person could go in there." The master said.
I looked at the back of the tin box there were already a few people, there was a driver-like person, wearing overalls, standing there smoking a cigarette, the old master walked over and said a few words to the driver, I don't know what to say, after a while the old man came back, "Let's go, I just told him, he said it's okay, you go and say hello to him." The master said.
"Master, Iā" I had just said a word, but before I could finish speaking, I was interrupted.
"Get in the back of the car and sit and talk less." The master said with a cold face.
I walked to the back and climbed into the tin car, which was already crowded with a few people. There were three people on the left, all men, but they were dressed quite well. The three of them should have known each other, but none of them spoke, and several people huddled together with cold faces. There are two women sitting on the right hand side, listening to the talk is a native of Shandong, these two women are very enthusiastic, watching me come up and let go to the side, and let me sit next to them, and do not shy away from me, chatting happily on the side.
"Sister, do you say there are any other goods here?" One said.
"There are a lot of mountain goods in the mountains, but seeing that the weather is getting hot, a lot of mountain goods will be unedible at that time, let's take advantage of the time to get a little more." The other said, I don't know much about mountain goods or something, and I don't know what they mean by mountain goods, although there are many mountains here, but there are no mountains and dense forests, I don't know what mountain goods can be eaten.
I watched quietly, not knowing if I should say something, but who knew if the two of them thought of me first, and which one of them came to me and asked me.
"Girl, you also went into the mountains to get mountain goods?" She asked.
"I'll go in, yes, but I'm new, and I don't know what mountains are..."
"Hey, you look like it's foreign, you really think there's mountain goods here, let me tell you, mountain goods are bones." He also lowered his voice and said, I am saying in my heart, how do people here like to interrupt others, and when I heard her say bones, I immediately came to my senses.
"What? What did you say? Bone? I asked.
"Why, you don't know, let me tell you, see, me and my sister-in-law, and the three opposite, are all veterans of doing this, just more than a year ago, the rain here washed away the mountain, and there was a place where a skeleton was rushed out, at first the government paid attention to it, and sent a lot of people to investigate, but then I couldn't find any clues, plus there was a haunting in that place, so I took the body away. However, the skeleton was left there and never claimed it, and was later taken away by the medical school. Who knows that later there are bones washed out by the rain, the people who first found it are people who are only in the mountains, we produce mushrooms here, these wild mushrooms are dried, especially before, people in the city now eat this, my sister and I used to do this, but then people began to come here to dig up corpses, saying that they were digging corpses, in fact, they were looking for bones. I heard from the medical school in the city that they want bones like this, no matter how many there are, such bones, not to mention a whole skeleton, are scattered, and they are many times more valuable than those mushrooms. So my sister and I decided to try our luck. The woman said, and as soon as the conversation box opened, she told me everything, and at first glance she was a straightforward person.
"And this is your first time here?" I asked.
"Of course not, I've been here once before, and I've got some scattered back, isn't it, I sold it for a little money, returned the chicken yolk, and built a house for the family, but our parents are gone, and now my sister has found a good in-law, if you know to do this, you must be unwilling, we plan to do it again, and then we will stop and earn some dowry for my sister-in-law." The woman said.
"I see, but I'm going to have something else to do this time, so I'll just go to the mountain pass." I said casually.
"Why don't you go into the mountains, to the mountain pass? So you're going to an orphanage? The woman said.
"An orphanage? And an orphanage in the mountains? I asked.
"But no, it's in the mountain pass, you don't know that because of the remoteness here, there were many people who secretly gave birth to children, and they all threw their children here, and then an old lady had a kind heart, and began to pick up children, and the children decreased more and more, and finally it became an orphanage, and the town originally said that it could be moved to the town, but now I don't know why, and it has not been moved."
"Where is the orphanage?" I asked.
"It's right in the mountain pass, you can see it when you enter the mountain pass, and behind it is the ghost house, and if you go around the ghost house, you can enter the mountain." (To be continued.) )
