Chapter 20: The Journey
In the early morning, the road is a little deserted, the sound of sweeping the floor comes from the side of the street, and the wind gently blows through the leaves, bringing a touch of coolness.
Xiaorou stood at the back door of the coffee house and waited for Uncle Zhao to deliver the goods, and when Uncle Zhao finished moving the goods, he delivered a cup of coffee, and then proposed a matter.
"Uncle Zhao, you have a lot of connections, can you find a reliable decoration company to help us redecorate the coffee house" It turned out that after solving that Huang Xiaoyu last time, Qin Feng got the yellow dark coin, plus his own money, and wanted to increase the scale of the coffee house, so he took down the store next to it that was about to close down, and planned to expand the store of the coffee house.
"This matter is on me, I will definitely help you get it right" Uncle Zhao was very surprised when he heard that this store that had been open for decades not only did not get worse and worse, but also expanded the store, he had delivered a lot of goods on this street, and also witnessed the history of this street.
"Then thank you Uncle Zhao" Xiaorou smiled and thanked, she looked for Uncle Zhao not only because he was well-connected, but more importantly, he was kind.
"Say thank you, in fact, when it comes to thanks, I should thank you, if it weren't for you, my daughter would have almost had an accident" Uncle Zhao sighed, he didn't care about anything, the only thing he cared about was his daughter, and when he was old, he hoped that his children would be safe.
"Oh? Can you tell me about it? What happened to her?" Xiao Rou was also quite curious.
"Okay, I'm not busy today, I'll just tell you" Uncle Zhao slowly began to talk about what happened to her daughter with his coffee
Uncle Zhao's daughter is called Zhao Pingping, who has just been admitted to a prestigious university in the next province this year, and the whole family is very happy.
Later, Pingping went to school, the first week was fine, Pingping adapted to life over there, and then Pingping called to say that she was uncomfortable in school, and often heard someone singing at night, she thought at first that her roommate was singing or someone was practicing, and there were art students in the school she attended, so she didn't care, but then her rest became worse and worse, which seriously affected her life, so she discussed it with her roommate, but what surprised her was that no one in her roommate was singing, and no one heard anyone singing.
If this doesn't mean anything, what makes her feel even more terrible is that the dark coin that her father gave her, saying that it can be used as a talisman, turned into ashes in her pocket, it turned out that Pinkie was going to go downstairs in the bedroom to pick up something, but suddenly her feet slipped, and she rolled down the stairs, fortunately, she only scratched a little skin, but the dark coin turned into paper ashes.
After this incident, Pingping's life began to change, either finding the wire in the meal or suddenly waking up at night while falling asleep, and her high tension made her roommates talk behind her back, deliberately alienating her. There was no way, she had to call Uncle Zhao and tell him about her situation, she didn't want to read anymore, she wanted to go home. When Uncle Zhao heard his daughter say this, he was angry and helpless in his heart, and planned to take his daughter back in two days.
After listening to Uncle Zhao talk about this, Xiao Rou looked at the vicissitudes of life in front of her, and there was still a trace of emotion in her heart, so that Uncle Zhao could relax and help him decorate the coffee house, as for Zhao Pingping, Xiao Rou found a way to let her boss go and see.
After Uncle Zhao left Zhao Pingping's contact information, Xiao Rou let him go home with peace of mind, and when Uncle Zhao left, Xiao Rou put her hand into the sun, she felt the warmth she had not seen for a long time, and the sunlight sprinkled on her delicate and fair skin, reflecting the golden light.
Prepare breakfast, when Qin Feng was enjoying breakfast, Xiao Rou and the boss said about it, Qin Feng thought about it and agreed, and organized Xiao Hei Xiaobai and Lian Xue to move the things downstairs to the second floor together, and then asked Xiao Rou to hand over the key to Uncle Zhao, as for the shop next door, Qin Feng had already taken it down a few days ago, the coffee house needed to be expanded, and he needed money.
When everything was ready, they officially closed the car door and started the car and drove towards Zhao Pingping's city, a trip that would last until Uncle Zhao finished decorating the coffee house.
Soon Qin Feng and the others left Wulin City and drove towards the highway leading to Shencheng. Qin Feng drove, the co-pilot sat on Xiaorou, Xiao Hei and Xiaobai did both sides in the back, Lian Xue sat in the middle, Xiao Rou kept looking at the scenery outside the car window and didn't know what she was thinking, Xiao Bai and Lian Xue in the back row took a selfie with their mobile phones, while Xiao Hei was pale, holding a plastic bag tightly in his hand, and blowing the wind through the car window.
"Do ghosts get motion sickness?" Qin Feng looked at the uncomfortable Xiao Hei through the rearview mirror, and couldn't help but secretly wonder in his heart, "What will the ghost vomit if he gets motion sickness"
Although he thought so, he still asked Xiao Rou next to him to hand Xiao Hei the motion sickness medicine and water in the car, and let him take it and rest well.
It was afternoon when they left the martial arts, and now they have left the jurisdiction of the martial arts, and officially stepped into this bustling city known as the magic capital, and the highway also ushered in the fall of night, Xiaobai shouted that she was hungry to eat, but she was a ghost, and she usually didn't see her hungry, probably because she wanted to taste the food in the world, Qin Feng glanced at the navigation and found that there was a rest area in front of him, and he began to get sleepy after driving for so long, and planned to rest there.
After about ten minutes of driving, Qin Feng and the others finally came to this rest stop, as soon as the car stopped, Xiao Hei opened the car door and ran to the toilet, looking at the figure of him covering his mouth, it could be guessed that his motion sickness was quite serious, Qin Feng took out the gas card from his wallet, and then handed the wallet to Xiao Rou, and asked her to take Lian Xue and Xiaobai to eat something. Xiao Bai had already jumped to the rest stop restaurant and started to order something, while Qin Feng drove to refuel.
Qin Feng refueled and walked out of the range of the gas station, squatted on the side of the road and lit a cigarette, looking at the scarce vehicles, his heart was very calm, Xiao Hei came out of the toilet, it can be seen that he is very sick with motion sickness, the whole ghost is a little haggard, Xiao Bai came out of the supermarket with a big plastic bag, followed by Lian Xue and Xiao Rou who were also carrying the bag.
Xiao Rou handed a cup of instant coffee to Qin Feng, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, boss, this place can't let me make coffee by myself"
The night in August and September was a little cold, Qin Feng took a sip of instant coffee, and found that this thing and Xiao Rou's own brewing were completely different things, but it brought a touch of warmth and spirit.
"It's okay, we came out this time just to play" Qin Feng didn't think there was anything, next to the car, Xiaobai took out a small cake from the plastic bag and handed it to Xiaohei's mouth, but Xiaobai was so motion sick that he wanted to vomit when he smelled the food, he squatted on the roadside flower bed and began to vomit again, making Xiaobai laugh at him.
"Hey, buddy, take a cigarette to refresh yourself" A white van stopped in front of them, and the open window revealed two men in the main driver and co-pilot, and the back seat was barely recognizable as a woman, they were dressed in a very fashionable manner.
Although the supermarket at the gas station was still open at this time, Qin Feng didn't think there was anything wrong with giving a cigarette, so he threw the cigarette case over and said that he had sent them, and the man in the co-pilot thanked him, opened it and smoked two or three, and immediately hurriedly said thank you, brother, Qin Feng beckoned and drove away.
Looking at the taillights of their distant cars, Qin Feng planned to take a good rest and wait until tomorrow morning to continue driving on the road, so he didn't plan to drink the coffee, and asked Xiaobai to bring him some food, so he ate for about twenty minutes, and the lights turned on not far away, it was a van, and when the car drove into the gas station to refuel, Qin Feng was surprised when he saw the two people in the front row, those two were obviously the two men who had just asked for cigarettes, didn't they already drive to the front? How did it come back again.
The two in the car also seemed to recognize Qin Feng, and when they finished refueling, they drove in front of Qin Feng.
"Dude, you guys drove very fast, and you actually came in front of us," the co-pilot man said, and there was still Qin Feng's cigarette in front of his helm.
"We've been here all this time, and I want to ask why you drove back again?" Qin Feng looked at the two of them as if they were lying.
"We've been driving along this road, what do you mean it's driving back again" The co-pilot man frowned and looked at Qin Feng, he suddenly felt that there was a problem.
whispered a few words to the man in the cab next to him, and then drove away, Qin Feng was too lazy to care, sat in the cab and began to sleep, Xiao Hei was recovering from motion sickness, Xiao Rou and Lian Xue were also resting, Xiao Bai was playing games with his mobile phone, and the car was quiet all of a sudden.
I don't know how long I slept, Qin Feng was woken up by the sound of knocking on the glass, and turned his head to see that it was the co-pilot man before, through the dim light in the car, I saw that his face had been sweating, his teeth were chattering, and his hand had been trembling holding a cigarette. Qin Feng rolled down the window glass,
"What are you doing here when you don't sleep at night" Qin Feng took out a pack of cigarettes from the car, tore off the package and took out one and put it in his mouth, but after thinking about it, he still took it down, after all, Xiao Rou and the others were sleeping.
"Big brother, we have opened I don't know how many times, and we will come back every time, there is really no way" The man was anxious and almost cried, but Qin Feng replied with a yawn.
"Isn't it just a ghost hitting the wall, it will be good if you wait for tomorrow morning" Qin Feng glanced at the man indifferently, the ghost hitting the wall is very evil, that is, you walk and find that you have been wandering around in one place, and you can't get out, but this phenomenon will disappear after dawn, and the ghost hitting the wall has always been recorded, and there is no basis to explain how it came about until today.
"Big brother, it's six o'clock in the morning now, it stands to reason that it should be dawn, but you see that the day is still dark and dreary, and there are no stars" The man's hand trembled and lit a cigarette, the cigarette calmed him down, he pointed to the sky outside and said this, Qin Feng took out his mobile phone and saw that it was indeed six o'clock in the morning, and his mobile phone had no signal.
I didn't have long eyes, and even a few ghosts in my car dared to provoke me. Qin Feng started the car thinking about it, and then the man also ran back into the car, intending to follow Qin Feng Their plan was to keep a distance from Qin Feng's car, and if Qin Feng turned around or disappeared, they would stop immediately.
They followed Qin Feng like this, about ten minutes forward, Qin Feng saw a light in front of him, took a closer look, and returned to the gas station, Qin Feng drove the car to the parking lot of the gas station, got out of the car and lit a cigarette, and the person in the white van didn't know what he was doing, so he had to drive the car in and stop.
The sky was still dark and gloomy, there was no moon or stars, and it was half past six when he saw the time, Qin Feng got into the car again after smoking, but this time he woke up Lian Xue and Xiaobai.
"We've encountered a ghost hitting the wall now, you two help me keep an eye on it, see what's wrong" Qin Feng stepped on the accelerator and drove on the highway again, this time he drove slowly, trying to let Lian Xue and Xiaobai find the reason. The car behind saw Qin Feng's car driving so slowly, and he couldn't figure out what the situation was all of a sudden, but he still followed him.
After more than ten minutes like this, just when Qin Feng was about to lose his patience, Xiaobai suddenly asked Qin Feng to stop.
"Boss, I feel a ghost aura here" Xiaobai's perception is quite strong, Qin Feng also believes her, he took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, lit it and took two puffs and threw it out of the window, and then drove away from there, the van behind saw that Qin Feng had accelerated, and also stepped on the accelerator to follow, but the strange thing was that they seemed to have hit something, only to hear Peng's sound, Qin Feng's car in front stopped.
Qin Feng saw a green shadow coming out of the grass on the side of the road through the rearview mirror, running to the place where the cigarette had just landed, and taking a big sip of the cigarette, and then being knocked to the ground by the van behind him. He immediately opened the car door and told Lixue to catch the green shadow.
Lianxue shook the red aya, outflanked and tied up the green shadow left and right, the green shadow just started to run, but after being tied up by the red aya, he lay directly on the ground.
Qin Feng took a closer look, the green shadow looked five big and three thick, his appearance was honest and honest, and he looked like he was thirty or forty years old.
"Who are you, why are you making ghosts hit the wall and harm me" Qin Feng squatted in front of the green shadow, of course, in the eyes of the people in the van, Qin Feng squatted on the side of the road alone as if muttering something, and a girl in red Hanfu and a little girl in white clothes got out of the car not far away. But the green shadow was silent.
"It's hard-mouthed, Xiaobai, come and teach him to speak" Qin Feng sometimes wanted the ghosts to speak well, but they had a hard mouth and didn't say anything. Xiao Bai took the spirit conjuring stick and whipped the green shadow, a ghost scream, begging for mercy came, Qin Feng lit a cigarette, did not let Xiao Bai stop, Xiao Bai naturally would not beat this ghost until his soul was scattered, and he didn't stop until he was tired and his face was sweating.
"Let's talk about it now" Qin Feng showed a kind smile, making even a ghost feel scared.
"My name is Li Dabao, I am a truck driver, I died here in a car accident two months ago, but I have never done anything bad," Li Dabao said sincerely on his knees. There was indeed a car accident on this road two months ago, and Qin Feng still paid attention to this matter, after all, his parents were also in a car accident at that time, and he was very sensitive to those two words.
"Then why are you trying to trick me by hitting the wall" Qin Feng still didn't believe that he didn't harm anyone, if he really didn't hurt anyone, Qin Feng wouldn't have encountered this kind of thing tonight. When this question was asked, Li Dabao hesitated slightly, but when he saw Xiaobai, who was shaking the spirit stick, his body was excited, and he immediately put it all out.
"My grave is in the weeds on the side of the road, and I hit the wall tonight because I really want to smoke, and I can't help it," Li Dabao said his difficulties.
Running trucks are often still on the road at night, so truck drivers have a problem, that is, they have a big addiction to smoking, Li Dabao is no exception, sometimes he can smoke a pack a day, but after he had a car accident, although the family often burned paper money for him, but paper money can't buy cigarettes, he is addicted to smoking again, and he has no choice but to cheat a cigarette by hitting the wall, but the car is full of goods, and even a cigarette is not willing to go, so Li Dabao let them keep circulating, until they meet Qin Feng, so if they drive at night on the highway, It's best to light a cigarette and throw it out, it will probably keep you okay.
"Then why don't you go and reincarnate?" Qin Feng lit the pack of cigarettes in his hand together, and Li Dabao smelled the smoke and his spirit suddenly improved.
"It's not that I don't leave, it's that I feel like I'm trapped here" Li Dabao smoked, his spirits improved, and he began to talk more.
"I'll take a look" After Qin Feng finished speaking, he beckoned Xiaobai and Lian Xue to walk towards the grass on the side of the road, and there was indeed a new grave standing inside, and Li Dabao's name was written on the tombstone.
"Boss, I think the ghost spirit here is so heavy" Xiao Bai's words reminded Qin Feng, and he thought about asking Xiao Bai to call the two brothers in the van.
"Come on, come on, help me dig this grave and take out the bones inside" Qin Feng took out two folding armor shovels from the car, which Qin Feng bought when he planned to go out to play before, but he didn't expect to use them now.
As soon as the two brothers heard that they were going to dig the grave, their hearts suddenly became timid, and they refused to live or die. Qin Feng had no choice but to pick up the shovel and do it himself.
