Chapter 1: Dreams on the Bus

Next Chapter

I once saw a passage that loneliness is the fate of people, everyone is a passerby in this world, from nothing, and back to nothing, no one can change this fate, so people should start to learn how to face death from birth.

My name is Zhang Xiaobei, 20 years old this year, nicknamed Plug, because I was weak and sick since I was a child, my parents were careful that they couldn't support it, so I named it Bolt, which means to tie me up.

But a lot of strange things have happened to me since I was a child, and some people even say that I will not live to be twenty years old, and if I do, it will be to live with my parents' lives, that is, they will die after I am twenty years old.

So I was scared because my twentieth birthday was just over two months away.

This is also the reason why I have been worried lately, in fact, I think no one is not afraid of death, even if I should learn how to face death, but I am only 20 years old, I really don't know how to face it.

So in order to keep myself from thinking so much, I worked all kinds of overtime in the factory, resulting in getting off work very late every day, especially today, when I remembered to get off work, it was already 12:20 in the evening, and the last train had been suspended, but I still had a glimmer of hope and went to the bus station.

But the surprise is that I didn't have to wait long for the last train of 321 to come, usually this bus passes by here at the latest around 12:10, but today it is 12:30.

But I didn't think much of it, thinking that the car might have broken down on the road or something, so it was a little late.

It's just that when I got in the car, I found that there was no one in the car, too, it was so late, who was still wandering outside, and if I hadn't deliberately worked overtime, I wouldn't have appeared here.

Thinking about it, I glanced at the empty seats, and then went to the back and found a window seat to sit in.

But after sitting for a while, I was sleepy, and I wanted to sleep uncontrollably, and I was a little panicked for a while, because I had been insomnia for a long time, and I didn't have such a strong sleepiness at all.

However, at this moment, someone behind me suddenly coughed, and at that moment, I came to my senses, and then stared at the front in horror, not daring to move.

It didn't take more than ten minutes from the time I got in the car to now, and although I was very sleepy and wanted to sleep in the back, I was sure that absolutely no one walked past me and sat behind me after getting in the car.

"You're a bolt, aren't you?" The man even asked me questions.

Immediately, my hairs stood on end, but I didn't dare to look back, because I knew since I was a child that you can't turn back when you are not sure if there is someone behind you at night.

Then I swallowed my saliva and thought to myself that as soon as the car stopped, I would rush out of the car.

But seeing that I was about to get to the next bus stop, but the driver didn't look like he wanted to stop, I panicked and hurriedly shouted to the front, "Master, stop at the station." ”

After shouting and getting no response, I was in a hurry, ran to the front, and then said unhappily: "Master, I told you to stop, didn't you hear?" You ......"

I was about to get angry, but when I saw that the driver's seat was empty in the front rearview mirror, that is, the car was now unmanned, I was overwhelmed with horror and cold sweat.

What to do? Call the police, I shuddered and took out my mobile phone from my bag, and then called the police in a panic.

But at this critical juncture, my phone suddenly ran out of battery.

Suddenly, my heart was indescribably angry, and I also knew that being scared to the extreme was anger, so I should be in that state now, while frantically starting the computer anew, while bursting foul language.

But it didn't work, the phone was out of battery, and it turned off again after less than three seconds of turning it on.

"Bolt ......" Just as I was going crazy, the voice called me again.

At this point, I was carried away by anger, turned around and yelled in the direction of the voice, "Don't scream, just say something, just fart!" ”

Originally, I thought I would see people when I turned around, but because it was so dark, I didn't see anything, and I suddenly felt a sigh in my heart.

"Bolt, calm down, I can save you!" The man said again.

Of course, I didn't believe it, so I continued to yell, "Who the are you, you can save me if you say you can save me?" Then you should let this broken car stop. ”

"Bolt, do you remember when you were in 03, you went to your house with a guest? I'm his friend! The man continued.

And of course I don't remember, and even if I do, I don't know who I'm talking about, plus I'm so scared that I just want to run away, how can I think of the years ago so much.

"You calm down first, if you remember, come to this car to find me, the same time and place today to get on the bus." After saying that, he was silent.

I jerked violently, then opened my eyes to find that I was still sitting in the same position, as if I had never left.

There are already other people in the car, although there are not many, but it can be clearly felt that they are ordinary people, because the people who are still in the car at this time must be tired and sleepy, so they look so tired.

Just what just happened? Could it be a dream I had? But why is it so true? I took out my phone to take a look, but found that the phone was indeed turned off, and it was also turned off because it was out of power.

Thinking about it, I got up and went to the front driver's seat to take a look, and found that the driver was also there.

What the hell is going on? I went back to my seat, looked out the window at the drizzle, and thought back to what I had just dreamed of, and the man said that a guest had been to my house in '03 and asked me if I remembered.

How can I possibly remember that at that time there was a lot of fertile land in our house, and every year the harvest was counted by tons, and there were many people who came to our house to collect grain, how do I know who it was?

But it seems that from a certain year, our family is not good, what to plant, what is not achieved, and gradually our family began to decline, but I don't remember what year it was.

"It's time to go to the river!" The driver's shouts came from the front.

I came back to my senses and glanced at the stop sign outside, then hurriedly got up and got out of the car.

I went back to the rental house where I lived, charged my phone, and quickly logged in to QQ, and then sent a message to my neighbor sister in my hometown, her name is He Yanran, two years older than me, so I think she should remember the year when our family started to fail.

But now at this time she must be asleep, I guess tomorrow I will see back to me, thinking that I will go to take a shower first, and then lie in bed in a daze, insomnia has been a long time, tonight is no exception, so I just thought about the dream I had in the car today, in fact, I really feel that it is not a dream, but I can't prove it.

Wait, if it's not a dream, then should I have the police number in my phone address book?

I was still a little nervous thinking about it, but I still took my phone and opened the communication log.

But when I saw the first call to the police, a chill hit, I didn't dare to think about it anymore, and quickly put down my phone and pulled the quilt to get ready to sleep.

Early the next morning, I received a message from He Yanran, she said: Why are you asking this?

I hurriedly replied: I suddenly remembered this, you can help me recall.

Then she replied to me after a while: It seems to be 04 years, when the corn you planted was destroyed by wild boars, and your grandmother lay at home angrily for several days.

Seeing this, that is to say, our house was not good since 04, and a guest came to our house in 03? Could it be that the decline of our family has something to do with that guest? But who is he?

I wanted to call and ask my mom, but I had to ask her, and with my current situation, she would definitely be worried about me, so I couldn't ask her.

I was thinking about it, but at this time, He Yanran sent a message again: Xiaobei, in fact, the adults are talking behind their backs, saying that the reason why your family is like this is actually related to an earth immortal who came to your house before.

Earth Immortals? When I saw these two words, I was very unfamiliar, and I didn't know when such a person had ever been in our family, so I asked: What is an earth immortal?

She said: I don't know very well, but do you remember? In 03, a man came to your house, like a beggar, and lived in your house for more than three months?

Beggar? After He Yanran's reminder, I remembered that there was indeed such a beggar who lived in our house, but he lived in a cowhouse on the edge of our yard, could he be an earth immortal? And the guy who talked to me in the car last night was his friend?

What is this? I was at a loss in my head, and after saying thank you to He Yanran, I was ready to go to work.

After a busy day in the factory, until I was also ready to leave work, I suddenly realized a problem, the person in the car last night said to me, can you save me? Is it meant that I will live past the age of twenty? But I'm going to live, what will my parents do? And can I trust him?

Thinking I glanced at the time, it's half past eleven, so let's wait, he said I can go to him again if I remember, now I remember, then go again, anyway, I experienced it once yesterday.

Watching the time pass minute by minute, and then at twelve o'clock, I went to the bus stop on time and waited, I got on the bus at half past twelve last night, so when there were other cars passing by, I didn't get on the bus, until half past twelve, when I saw an empty 321 parked on the side of the road, I walked up with a very nervous heart.

The driver was still the same driver as yesterday, and he smiled at me, I nodded stiffly, and after throwing the money, I went to the place where I sat yesterday.

Because of nervousness and fear, I sat down in a cold sweat and my heart beat very fast.

After the car departed, I was very sleepy again after a while, but this time I didn't insist on it, so I fell asleep.

"Bolt, do you remember?" Suddenly, the voice came again, and I woke up suddenly, but I still didn't dare to speak.
