Volume 1 A New Chapter in the Last Days Chapter 1 Like a Dream Awakening
Just after the New Year, the shops on both sides of the gate have opened one by one, and the couplets with black letters on a big red background are still pasted on both sides of the door frame, and the joyful atmosphere has not yet dissipated with the end of the New Year.
Although a large number of migrant workers crowded through the customs, they will more or less bring some local products from their hometowns, but you can still see the smiles in their busy figures.
The heavy suitcase can't weigh on their shoulders, because they carry the happiness of the family and the dream of making a fortune.
The new year has begun, and many young people with dreams are also moving with the crowd, and they can see perseverance and hesitation on their faces, and their vision for the future is also confused about their future life.
The convoys at the gate were waiting to enter H City, and when they looked down, they saw a long queue of cars, and there were four young men in a slow-moving Porsche, three of whom were closing their eyes except for one in the cab.
Clicked the window open button The window slowly descended, and a delicate white hand stretched out from the toll window, the staff was a young woman in her twenties, quite beautiful, she smiled and gave people a refreshing feeling.
The staff politely said, "Happy New Year".
When he took the card, the staff glanced at the man in the cab, saw his handsome face and couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and tapped something skillfully with both hands, and said with a brighter smile after checking it: "A total of three hundred and seventy-six yuan"
This sentence was two points sweeter than the previous habitual greeting, and the dimples on his cheeks were like sweet and mellow wine, which made the man in the cab stunned.
The man in the cab handed out four brand-new bills and replied a little stiffly: "You too.. Happy New Year".
The big man in the cab looked a bit dull and spoke in a more wooden tone, and he didn't know much about these beautiful girls, even if it was just a simple greeting.
After taking the change, the window closed again, and the girl at the toll booth watched the Porsche slowly enter H City, Guangdong Economic Development Special Zone, and after entering the city, the two people in the back row of the car also slowly woke up, smoking cigarettes while coming back to their senses.
At this time, the phone rang, and the big man in the cab picked up the phone with a Bluetooth headset and said, "Hello"
There was an angry rebuke from the earphones, with a strong Sichuan accent in his tone: "Zheng Daman, my mother has been looking for you for a long time, you are still hello to me, what a shovel?" ”
When the big man in the cab heard the voice, he looked helpless, and hurriedly apologized and said: "Second aunt, I'm driving" He didn't know how to explain, he could only say that he was driving, and he politely reminded the other party to hang up the phone quickly.
"Then you should drive well and pay attention to safety," the other end of the phone kindly reminded.
After chattering a few more words, he asked: "Last time, you didn't like the daughter of the Peng family, saying that people were full of swearing, this time I found a better one for you, people graduated from college and are so educated, I heard her mother say that other girls haven't talked to anyone yet..... And ........"
"The woman is from our city, and she has two apartments at home... With two daughters... You don't have to pay to buy a house when you get married.... Her parents said that as long as they are steady, self-motivated, and filial, they can just give a little bit of the bride price."
Ten minutes later, several traffic lights passed, and the traffic jam was also blocked, and the hour twenty minutes passed.
The second aunt on the other end of the phone has just introduced the woman herself.
"Uh-huh, uh-huh," the man in the cab could only nod his head in reply, he didn't dare to refute, because that would cause more intense artillery fire.
The second aunt is not their own second aunt, rural people will always be related to the past, the second aunt is also more famous in the town, she is very good, and she likes to help people talk about being a matchmaker, the only drawback is that she is a little verbose.
"Then it's decided, I'll take the girl to your house in a while, and you clean up the way" The second aunt saw that he had no objection, and immediately smiled and made a decision.
"I'm leaving, I'm in H City" Zheng Jian heard that a meeting was going to be arranged, and hurriedly reported his whereabouts.
"Gone?" There was a sudden silence on the other end of the line, like the dead silence before a storm.
The second aunt's voice suddenly increased decibel and scolded: "Zheng Daman, your turtle is just disobedient, it's been so long since thirty, your turtle is not married, are you planning to fight a bachelor all the time?" ”
This means that Zheng Jian's character can bear it quietly, but others may hang up the phone.
The second aunt scolded for a while, and heard the sound of her drinking water in the middle, and after scolding enough, she knew that this matter was irreparable, so she put out her anger and hung up the phone.
One of the people in the back seat of the car stretched and asked with a smile: "Brother, I don't know what you think, there are so many people in the township who have introduced you to someone, why don't you cherish it and find a sister-in-law for our brother?" ”
The big man in the cab was expressionless, but said with palpitations: "I don't like it"
"I look at the photos and think it's pretty good, big brother, why can't you look at it" The other person in the back seat opened the window wider, stretched out his hand and shook the cigarette in his hand, and the cigarette ash flew in the air outside the speeding car.
Zheng Jian was silent, and he didn't intend to explain why he didn't find a partner.
The co-pilot, who had been asleep, suddenly turned blue and kicked his feet without warning, which was enough to nail his head to the roof of the car if it weren't for the restraint of the seat belt.
Then he crossed his fists and made a complicated gesture, muttering strange words in his mouth, some like incantations, and then he raised his fists and slammed them into the car without warning, and the navigation of the LCD screen was smashed by his punch, and the broken parts were scattered in the cockpit.
A flash of electricity began to emit green smoke, and the fist was instantly injured and broken, and the red blood flowed down from the wound.
Everything happened so fast that a few people in the car reacted, and the person in the cab quickly hit the right turn signal, and there was no time to pull over.
The co-pilot's man slammed his elbow lightning at Zheng Jian, who was driving, and saw Zheng Jian raise his hand and snort with his forearm, he knew that his arm must be a little blue.
Pressing the shock in his heart, he continued to hit the steering wheel with one hand, so that the car slowly pulled over, and used his right hand to protect his face door to avoid being hit by a sudden fist again.
The co-pilot's roar was accompanied by another diagonal elbow blow, and the window of the Porsche exploded like a spider's web.
Zheng Jian narrowed his eyes, his pupils shrank slightly, and hurriedly said, "Help hold him down, don't let Brother Fang hurt himself"
At this time, the two people in the back seat of the car reacted and hurriedly controlled his hands to prevent him from continuing to run wild.
Pedestrians on the side of the road instantly watched this side, pedestrians chattered and speculated about what was happening, and some passers-by hurriedly held their mobile phones and began to take pictures of the situation in the car.
"Big brother, what do you say is wrong with Brother Fang" The corners of the mouth of one of the people sitting in the back seat twitched, and he asked in fear.
Zheng Jian shook his head puzzled: "I don't know, I should be having a nightmare."
"What a horrible dream this must have."
After Zheng Jian untied his seat belt, he also helped to suppress the man who was still struggling, he also looked confused, and he didn't know what was crazy about Brother Fang.
The co-pilot, known as Brother Fang, slowly stopped struggling, and continued to foam at the mouth and mumble something after a burst of spasms.
“.... Swear with... Coexist and die...."
Zheng Jian hurriedly grabbed another bottle of mineral water and poured it for him.
The three people in the car looked anxiously at the co-pilot, and after a while, he slowly opened his eyes, shook his head from side to side, water droplets dripped from his hair, and his eyes looked around with a grim expression.
The murderous intent revealed in the bloodshot eyes was like substance, so that Zheng Jian, who was still pressing on him, hurriedly shrank back, and the place he had seen was like a steel knife scraping bones.
He slowly asked, "Where is this?"
Zheng Jian hurriedly replied: "Brother Fang, I have already returned to H City, and now I am near Yixian Road in Qianshan Pavilion."
Looking at the endless stream of vehicles and the bustling pedestrians all around, there are no mutated zombies, no monsters, and no mutilated corpses on the streets.
Fang Jiaxing exhaled a breath of turbidity at this time, and released his fist to relax the tense muscles on his body.
patted the head that was about to be cracked, and asked in a cold tone, "What time is it now?"
One person in the back seat hurriedly replied: "Today is the fourteenth, tomorrow the hotel will be the new year"
"Do you want to go to the hospital to check the injury first?" Zheng Jian asked with concern, and he didn't seem so wooden at this time.
"And what exactly is the time now?" Fang Jiaxing felt that the two memories in his mind were slowly merging, and the memories were like movie clips passing through his mind one by one.
The memories that grew clearer and clearer melted in, but the pain in my head was so great that it felt like it was going to blow up.
I have a splitting headache, but my heart is full of joy.
Zheng Jian hurriedly took out his mobile phone and handed it over, and the date on the screen of the Huawei mobile phone showed: 15:24 pm on February 18, 2020.
There is less than a day to go, and tomorrow at 12 noon sharp, everything will be revealed.
Fang Jiaxing's head was still a little confused, but his tone had softened a lot, he opened the co-pilot's storage box and took out a towel to wrap his fist to break all the co-pilot's glass that had burst, and only after taking a breath of fresh air did he say: "Let's go, go back to the hotel first"
The memories slowly coincided, and his head became more and more sober, and his heart was shocked inexplicably, Fang Jiaxing touched the seat belt tied to his body, and then touched the bleeding wound, the red blood and the pain were so real.
Is this a rebirth or a time traveler?
"What is this?"
"Am I not dead?"
"Is my experience of struggling in the last days a dream?"
"And what are the pedestrians on the street?"
"Will the end times come as scheduled? Will such a miserable human purgatory come again? ”
