Chapter 4 On the Chen Bridge
From Nanyang University to the vicinity of Chenhe, not to mention taking a bus, it will take more than 40 minutes to take a taxi at the earliest.
And the time now is half past five in the afternoon, in other words, even if they take a taxi now, by the time they arrive at Chenhe, it will already be more than six o'clock in the evening. At that time, it was almost dark, and by the time they had cleaned up, prepared, barbecued, and drunk, it might have been all done.
Fortunately, this is the case, as early as when they decided to choose the barbecue location in Chenhe at the beginning, they had already thought of it in advance.
There were six people in the dormitory, plus two girls, and eight people took two rough cars, and then they set up tents on the banks of the Chen River at night and stayed overnight, waiting for the next day, or at noon, when the taxi would come back.
In this way, they can also have more fun, otherwise they will be in a hurry and panic, and everyone will be unhappy to eat and drink.
The eight-person bag left the school and came to the street opposite the school, Chen Musheng glanced at Liang Lei and Zhou Lu, and said to the two of them:
"You two have a car for the object, and we four have a car for the singles. No problem, right? ”
"No problem, we'll go first when we call the car in that moment, you guys should hurry up!"
Liang Lei and Zhou Lu are naturally happy like this, in fact, the two of them think the same way. After a while, a taxi came from the side, and Liang Lei and the four of them waved to stop the taxi.
"Let's go first, and if we can't find it, we'll call us."
After dropping this sentence, Liang Lei and the four of them got in the car and walked away.
"Liang Lei and Zhou Lu, two bastards." The fat man somehow became sour again, Zhang Song smiled and patted the fat man's big belly after hearing this, and joked:
"You're not lonely, how can you say that you're still pregnant with one in your belly, boy and girl?"
"Fuck off, let's talk about Lao Tzu, believe it or not, Lao Tzu will sit on your ass and kill you!"
The fat man said that he was about to reach out and grab Zhang Song. Fortunately, Zhang Song reacted quickly enough and ran to the side.
"Don't make a fuss yet, the car is coming."
Zhao Jian's voice rang out at this time, Chen Musheng and the fat man looked ahead, and saw a taxi driving towards them.
"Stop!"
Chen Musheng kept waving his hand and shouted at the taxi.
"Master, open the trunk."
Chen Musheng said in his standard local dialect.
The taxi driver opened the trunk very happily, and after seeing Chen Musheng and them carrying so many things in their hands, the driver couldn't help but ask curiously:
"This guy has a lot of stuff. Are you going to the train station? ”
Chen Musheng was quick with his hands and feet, wrapped the bags in their hands, and stuffed them into the trunk in one go. There were so many things that the trunk door couldn't be closed at all.
"No matter, I can't fall anyway, so let's go."
The fat man tried to press the trunk door, and then tried to dig through the contents inside. After making sure that what he had placed inside would not fall out, he was relieved to get into the car. Seeing him enter, Chen Musheng and the three of them originally wanted to think of a way again. I didn't want to waste any more effort in the car.
"Are you sure you can't drop it?"
The taxi driver glanced in the rearview mirror and asked with some anxiety.
"If you can't fall down, if you really fall, then it's ours."
The fat man shook his arms. It didn't matter.
The taxi driver saw that everyone was not worried, so he didn't say anything more and slowly started the car.
"Train station?"
"No, on the banks of the Chen River." Chen Musheng replied unhurriedly.
"On the banks of the Chen River?" The taxi driver slammed on the brakes. The car came to a halt abruptly, and it almost threw out the unprepared people.
"How are you driving?" The fat man and Zhang Song rubbed the head they had just bumped into and muttered unhappily.
"I'm so sorry. I was a little scared just now. ”
"You won't be so daring, you just let you take us to the shore, not let us fly, what are you afraid of. Don't bother, let's go. ”
"You're not going there for a picnic, are you?"
"yes, is it a crime?"
"I advise you not to go, it's really wicked, I heard that yesterday and the day before yesterday drowned another. It's all your age, and if you don't believe in evil, you want to go over and have a look, and you drown inexplicably. ”
When the driver talked about it, the muscles on his face were constantly twitching, and he looked quite funny. Chen Musheng glanced at the time, it was almost six o'clock at this time, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense with this driver anymore, so he directly urged:
"We're just on the shore and we're not going to go underwater, and besides, can I trouble you to drive?" Our friends are almost there. ”
The driver saw that Chen Musheng and the others were really hard-hearted, he shook his head and sighed and didn't persuade anymore, and finally drove the car in the direction of Chen He.
Chen Musheng was sitting in the passenger seat next to the driver, because he could hear Chen Musheng's accent, so the driver had been communicating with Chen Musheng in the local dialect that the fat man couldn't understand.
"You are a local, and you will not be ignorant of the evil nature of the river. There are so many rivers around our city, which one do you choose to play, if you can't go to a picnic, why don't you go to the Chen River to get rid of the bad luck of the dead? ”
"How can it be so evil, these things are all false, and they can't be believed."
Chen Musheng secretly laughed in his heart that the driver was as timid as a mouse, and his face couldn't help but show a little ridicule.
Seeing that Chen Musheng not only didn't believe his words, but laughed at his cowardice, the taxi driver said with a cold face:
"There is no wind and no waves, just what I have heard, six people have died in the last three months."
"Well, they deserve it, who made them have to go into the water."
After Chen Musheng was silent for a while, he suddenly said something that completely left the driver speechless.
I don't know if I was choked by Chen Musheng, and the driver didn't say a word to them all the way. It wasn't until the sky was dark and the taxi stopped alone on the bridge deck of Chen Bridge that the driver said coldly:
"Here it is, fifty-two pieces five."
"Zhao Jian, give money!" Chen Musheng turned around and said to Zhao Jian fiercely.
"Why me?" Zhao Jian muttered indignantly while taking money out of his pocket.
After receiving more than fifty yuan handed over by Zhao Jian, Chen Musheng replied with a smile:
"Because you didn't buy enough things, you will have to pay for it when you go back tomorrow."
"Impossible, in that case, Lao Tzu will simply live here and not go back!"
"It's useless for you to say this to me, you have to say it to the river below, maybe it will leave you forever!"
Chen Musheng and Zhao Jian were talking about each other, and at this time, the fat man and Zhang Song had already taken out all the things in the trunk. The taxi driver rolled up the window and looked at them as he walked, as if he were looking at a corpse.
In the blink of an eye, he drove the car away. (To be continued......)
