On a few occasions when I was drinking, I spoke to Officer Shek, and he was slow to react and answered with the donkey's lips not in the horse's mouth. Purple Pavilion

I laughed and said, "Officer Shi." You've got something on your mind. ”

Officer Shi smiled and said, "What can I do?" Nothing. ”

Since he didn't want to say it, I didn't ask again. When we were full, we left the restaurant.

On the way back, I said to Mr. Lu, "Don't go home tonight." Give me the Dharma Protector by the side. "Winter miscellaneous looking for a number.

Mr. Lu glanced at me and said with some dissatisfaction: "I just drank wine and my head is dizzy, but you don't let me sleep, isn't this torture?" ”

I looked at the moon in the sky. said: "It's a bit of a waste not to practice on such a good day." What's more, I'm in danger now, having domesticated those two dragons a day earlier. You will be safe one day sooner. ”

Mr. Lu smiled: "It's really rare. People like you who don't want to be a Taoist priest also have times when they study the Tao hard. ”

I sighed and said helplessly, "What's the solution?" If you don't learn, you'll die, so you have to endure it. ”

With Xue Qian and Mr. Lu here, I didn't have to worry about the vehicles coming and going, so I sat near the empty house.

Xue Qian and Mr. Lu yawned and watched me meditate and practice qi boredly.

I closed my eyes and cut off my vision. Then there is the sense of smell and finally the sense of hearing.

I'm in that state again.

It was so dark that I couldn't tell if it was day or night. The cold wind was whirling, but I couldn't find its source.

There were a lot of pedestrians on the street, all of them with their heads down, coming and going around me.

I was standing on the side of the road. Looking left and right for a taxi.

The city is strange. There are a lot of pedestrians, there are wide roads, and there are towering buildings. But there are no cars. Not only cars, but also motorcycles and bicycles. All are on foot.

I stood on the side of the road and looked at these people strangely. They were doing all sorts of things as they went.

Some people eat while walking. Stuff food and drink into your mouth. I laughed in my heart: Isn't he worried about getting sick from eating into the cold wind?

But soon I stopped laughing, because I saw a more intelligent person. The man's eyes were closed, his mouth was drooling, his body was crooked, and he was obviously asleep. It was not easy to sleep standing up, but he was walking while sleeping. I thought to myself, this guy has a set, so don't hit the corner after a while.

However, I also saw all kinds of people who talked about love, business, and reading while walking. It seems that they never knew that they could sit and lie down the same.

At this time, a taxi pulled up next to me.

I opened the back door and sat inside.

The driver asked me, "Where are you going?" ”

I stood on the street for a long time, my legs ached, and I rubbed my calves and said tiredly, "Go home." ”

After saying these two words, my heart moved: "Go home? Why should I go home? ”

The taxi was already moving, and I was leaning back in my seat because of the acceleration. I looked up and saw the driver's face in the rearview mirror. This face is very ordinary, and you can't find it if you throw it into the pile. But something familiar to me feels. I searched my mind to find someone who resembled this face, but I couldn't find it.

The driver probably noticed that I was looking at him. He smiled at me and said, "Why do you want to go home?" Leaves fall back to the roots? ”

I replied casually, "yes." After I confirmed his answer, I felt a little unlucky in my heart. The leaf falls represents death, and the leaves fall back to the roots, which is not a good word.

You can't think too much about bad things, otherwise, the devil is born from the heart, and the more you think about it, the more unlucky you are. So I coughed softly, trying to open the page. Speechless, he said: "Master, I see that there are many people and few cars in this city." Your business must be good, right? ”

The driver sighed and said, "Don't mention it." There are indeed fewer cars here, but there are fewer people in the cars. ”

I wondered, "Why is that?" I see people coming and going on the streets, and there are always one or two who ride in the car. ”

The driver smiled: "People here are very timid and dare not take a car." They felt that the car was going too fast and was afraid. ”

I laughed, "Anyone else afraid of this?" It seems that the people here are really not very bold. ”

I laughed twice with the driver. There was silence. The atmosphere in the car was a bit dreary.

At this time, the driver had been driving for a long time, but still did not get out of the city. It's a big city. And the people on the street are next to each other, how many people must be there?

I was admiring, and suddenly my heart moved, and I said, "Master, where are you going to take me?" ”

The driver glanced at me in the mirror and said lightly, "Aren't you going home?" ”

I waved my hand and said, "The point is that I didn't tell you where my house is." Why don't you ask me? ”

The driver smiled: "No need to ask, I know where your home is." ”

I asked curiously, "Do you know me?" ”

The driver smiled: "I don't know you." But...... Your homes are all in the same place, so don't ask. ”

I looked at the people outside and thought, "There aren't that many people in the whole mining town." ”

Then, I knocked on my head: "Why do I suddenly want to go home?" Where am I? ”

I asked the driver, "Tell me, where is my home?" I'll see if it's right. lest thou drag me to the black coal kiln and sell it to the kiln owner as a coolie. ”

The driver smiled and said, "Your house is in front." ”

I took out my phone and said, "Master, I'm not joking with you." If you don't say one, two, three, I'm going to call the police. ”

The driver smiled: "The police can't control the affairs here." This has to be done by mistake. ”

I was shocked in my heart, and suddenly sweated: "Yincha? Who the hell are you? ”

I raised the big knife, but because the driver was separated by an iron bar, I couldn't hit him for a short time, and the knife was just a threat.

When I asked the driver about this, he suddenly broke down and cried, "I'm just a driver." I'm nothing. ”

This scene is familiar. It was as if I saw a picture. In the middle of the night, there was a driver who didn't have a headlight, and I sat in the cockpit with him. Watch him cry on the steering wheel.

The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, and said, "Master, did we meet yesterday?" ”

I thought about the horror of yesterday, and the world outside the car suddenly changed. The old streets, the city, are gone. The surroundings turned into endless darkness again.

The driver suddenly stopped crying, and his face turned cold again. It seems that in the blink of an eye, it is like a different person.

He said lightly: "Just now it was the road of life. Now it's Huangquan Road. Brother, do you know why those people don't get in the car? Because they are nostalgic for the time when they were alive. I'm afraid I'll walk on this road too early. ”

My body shuddered and asked, "Are we on the bridge?" ”

The driver nodded: "Yes, it's on the bridge." ”

My heart was furious, and I asked, "What's behind the bridge?" ”

The driver said lightly: "Then I don't know, I've never been there." ”

I said to myself, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. It's just a demon. When he doesn't save zài, when he doesn't save zài. ”

I sat in the back seat of a taxi, crying outside the car, knowing that there were thousands of imps around. I know that this master is not a living person. But I forced myself to meditate and practice qi.

It's hard to keep nothing in your heart in such a place. But I tried it for a while and found that there was a benefit. That is, whenever I breathe in and out, there is always a bright light in front of me, as thin as a needle.

The light in the darkness couldn't be better. Even if I don't know where it came from, I don't want to lose it.

I carefully adjusted my breathing. The light was slowly getting bigger.

I found it as if a hand had tore through the darkness in front of me and let the light leak out.

After a few seconds, the light rapidly expanded, reaching the sky above and the ground below. It spread like a flood, occupying the whole world in an instant. And the taxi was drowned in the light.

After a long time, the light receded, and I found myself sitting in the streets of Huaicheng.

The asphalt pavement was cold, and the sleeping Huaicheng was quiet. Xue Qian and Mr. Lu were squatting in front of me, staring at me nervously
