Chapter 14: Start Again
I returned to the dormitory after lunch, but Er Li was still not there. Since Zhang Chengdao left www.biquge.info a huge dormitory has almost become his own world except for when the lights are about to go out.
Under the guidance of Xiu Yuan, he played another set of Baguazhang, and was untying the sandbag and preparing to go to bed for a lunch break, but the mobile phone rang at an inopportune time.
Xiu Yuan, who was standing at the table, glanced at the screen and said, "It's Zhang Xiaozi calling, it is estimated that it is a call for help, answer it quickly." ”
I tossed the drenched sandbag into the basin and replied, "The fact that he can still call me proves that nothing major has happened, and my hexagram in the morning shows that the real danger is at night, are you implying that I have miscalculated?" ”
"It doesn't matter if you're right or wrong, my old man is getting more and more lazy to move now, and it's not about your life and death, who has the leisure to calculate it for him."
"Che, why do I think you care more about him than about me, who reminded me in the morning that I wanted to help him with a divination? Hello Lao Zhang. ”
I picked up the phone, and Lao Zhang's anxious voice immediately came from the other end: "Wu Shenguo, nothing happened to you over there, right?" ”
"It's normal to tell the time on the hour of the central station, I said, why are you worried about me, everything is settled on your own side?" I was about to go to the water room with the basin as I spoke, and the sandbag tied to my body was really strong, but I was too panicked in the summer, and it didn't take long to get soaked in sweat, not to mention, and it was not good to dry after washing.
"Don't gossip, I found the kind of yellow charm that says "ten times" again, I'm afraid you have something over there, so I called and asked. It's okay now, but you have to be careful. ”
"What! Did you find another one? Didn't your brother remind you to stop meddling? You haven't been caught up in yet, have you? "As my cultivation progresses, I don't know much about this room, I used to feel like a gecko, and what we caught was its tail, because it could be broken and reborn at any time, so they didn't plan to do anything to us. And after several contacts with He He, I think what we grabbed is more like a hair, as for whether this hair belongs to a mouse or a cow, it is really difficult to judge according to the available information.
Just thinking about it, my train of thought was interrupted by Zhang Chengdao: "It's not one, I already have two more in my hand now." And this time it's coming directly at me, haven't you figured it out? ”
I didn't care if he could see it or not, I rolled my eyes at the phone and said, "Do you really think I'm a god?" If you have time, I'll tell you more about it. ”
After Zhang Chengdao saw the car accident brother go away, he shook his body and walked to get into the car to get his backpack and take back his jade pendant. While walking, I accidentally glanced at the driving position under the car, and just in time to see a piece of yellow paper fluttering to the ground. Because he was deeply impressed by the "tenfold" yellow charm of the Room of Requirement, he immediately attracted Zhang Chengdao's attention with just a glance of this yellow paper. Bypassing the bloodstained steel pipe, he bent down hard and got under the car, grabbing the yellow paper in his hand, although he only looked at the back, but he was already sure that it was the thing.
Getting this yellow talisman, combined with the words of the benevolent brother just now, Zhang Chengdao couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. It seems that this time the matter is not as simple as it seems to the senior brother and others, and it is not clear that the Room of Request is still involved.
"Shouldn't I give my brother a call?" Zhang Chengdao thought about it and touched his pocket, but he felt empty. Only then did he remember that he had thrown his phone on his seat in a hurry. So he turned around again and walked towards the door.
A traffic policeman stood at the door of the car, and when he saw Zhang Chengdao wanting to get into the car, he immediately stretched out his hand to stop him and said: "I'm sorry, this is the scene of the accident, there are still many injured people inside, please leave if you have nothing to do." ”
Zhang Chengdao repeatedly explained that he was a passenger in the car, his luggage was still in the car, and that he was thrown out of the car during the car accident, and found the ticket that he randomly stuffed into his pocket when he got on the bus and showed it to the traffic police comrades.
But although the traffic policeman's eyes widened in surprise, obviously he was surprised that Zhang Chengdao could still move freely after being thrown out of the car, but he still didn't let him in.
In desperation, Zhang Chengdao had to take out a document from his personal pocket, which was the talisman that Zhang Chengcun gave him when he was on the plane, a pirated police officer card, which was a fake certificate to put it bluntly.
In addition to the name and photo on this police officer card, all the information is Zhang Chengcun's own, so the degree of authenticity is extremely high, in fact, even the steel seal on the top is real, if you only look at the document itself, you can't find any flaws at all, but as long as you connect to the Internet, the truth will be revealed, so Zhang Chengcun told Zhang Chengdao at the time, "Don't use it until an emergency." ”
But Zhang Chengdao's idea is different, the more critical the moment, the easier it is to be exposed, but it is taken out on some small troubles and pretended, which may achieve good results.
Sure enough, after reading Zhang Chengdao's documents, the traffic police's attitude immediately eased a lot, and when Zhang Chengdao said that he was carrying out a cross-provincial task, he held the brim of his hat and silently turned sideways to let Zhang Chengdao get into the car.
There were really wails in the car, two medical staff wearing white masks were busy bandaging the wounded urgently, and some passengers sitting in the back seat or wearing seat belts, although they were not injured, but they were also saddened, and honestly sat on the seats waiting for the arrangement of the traffic police.
Zhang Chengdao found his seat, which was already empty. After searching around again, I found my backpack under the front seat, but I couldn't find my phone anyway.
"Someone wouldn't be in the mood to steal a mobile phone in the event of a car accident, right?" Zhang Chengdao thought about it, and felt that it wouldn't be, maybe he didn't know how to fly to that corner when he hit it, after all, people as big as him flew out, which shows how powerful the impact is.
Thinking that he found something that might have been broken and unusable anyway, Zhang Chengdao gave up looking for it and went to the driving position to find his jade pendant.
The driver's death was horrific, he lay on his back in his seat, his hands drooping naturally, and blood dripping down his fingers on the floor. One end of the steel pipe was on the broken glass, and the other end was on the guardrail behind the driver, and the driver's head was worn on the steel pipe like a hawthorn.
The steel pipe was penetrated through the driver's left eye, so Zhang Chengdao could only see his left eye, which was wide open. The dilated pupils of this eye radiated the unwillingness, fear, and longing for life at the moment of his death.
Zhang Chengdao only glanced at the driver and couldn't bear to look at it again, although he was riddled with karma, but if the matter was really for himself as Brother Ren said, then he was tantamount to pushing his death to come early.
Avoiding the corpse, Zhang Chengdao looked for a long time at the driver's feet, and borrowed a flashlight from the traffic police at the door, but the jade pendant was also like his mobile phone, as if the world had evaporated. Zhang Chengdao also secretly urged the formation, but there was no reaction, this thing was really strange as if he had seen a ghost. But it looks like hell.
Zhang Chengdao turned around and glanced at the passengers in the car, and initially calculated, how could there be forty or fifty people, if he was more serious and searched by himself, it would be time-consuming and laborious, not to mention, and there would be a danger of identity exposure. Forget it, time, luck, and fate, it's mine after all, it's not that I can't force it, so let's wait for time and let Wu Yue come to see if I can find it.
As Zhang Chengdao's backpack turned around and got out of the car, a young man wearing a baseball cap sitting in the back of the car quietly raised his head and glanced at his distant back, and the corners of his mouth raised a slight smile.
Without a mobile phone, Zhang Chengdao is equivalent to temporarily losing the ability to communicate with the outside world, without the jade pendant, Zhang Chengdao is equivalent to losing the biggest help, and now, everything can only rely on his true skills.
Still relying on the police officer card, Zhang Chengdao successfully got out of the blockade, walked to the traffic and began to stop the car. He now urgently needs to rush to the train station to catch a train that only runs once a day to the scenic spot.
Because there was a bunch of traffic police not far away, and Zhang Chengdao himself was gray-headed and in tattered clothes, all the buses ignored his waving and roared past. And private car owners also have the attitude that more is better than less, and they turn a blind eye to Zhang Chengdao.
Finally, a big truck stopped under the sudden brake under Zhang Chengdao's sacrifice, and a bearded man stuck his head out of the car window and yelled at him, because the roar of the car motor was too loud, Zhang Chengdao didn't hear it clearly, but looking at the expression of this big man, it was definitely not a good word.
At this time, Zhang Chengdao couldn't help but secretly regret it, and kept scolding himself for being stupid in his heart, because the moment the big card stopped, he thought of another idea: Since he has revealed his identity as a policeman, why not let the traffic police help him stop a car, which can be solved with a raise of his hand.
But the matter has come to this, Zhang Chengdao has to communicate with this big man. The big man looked to be in his thirties, wearing a brown short-sleeved T-shirt, and one muscular arm was wrapped in dark skin. In addition to tiredness, there was also a faint anger on the unshaven face.
"What's the matter with you, don't choose Lao Tzu's car if you want to die! If there's something, get out of here! Dahan spoke first, and his words had a thick dialect accent, which made Zhang Chengdao very difficult to listen.
"Master, the car I was sitting in had an accident, and it was the one over there." Saying that, Zhang Chengdao pointed to the bus where the accident occurred, and then continued: "I have an urgent matter to rush to a certain scenic spot, or you can take me to a nearby station." Then he said in a pleading tone: "I am really in a hurry, please help the master." ”
"No, no, get out of here!" The big man waved his thick arm at Zhang Chengdao impatiently, as if to drive away a fly.
At this time, another head poked out of the co-pilot's seat and shouted to Zhang Chengdao: "You are going to that scenic spot, although we can't get there, but you can go to the station near the scenic spot, or the nearest station we passed, little brother, get on the train." The man spoke fluent Mandarin.
Then the man said something to the surprised man next to him in a pure dialect, because the two were close, so this time Zhang Chengdao didn't hear clearly, and even if he heard clearly, it is estimated that he couldn't understand what the two were saying.
Zhang Chengdao looked at the person in the co-pilot, and saw that this was a thin man about forty years old, with a thin face that looked like a monkey, and was also wearing a T-shirt, but it was a flower cloth, and there was still eye feces hanging from the corners of his eyes.
Climbing up to the tall passenger door, Zhang Chengdao first glanced around, only to see smoke in the cab, and several empty cigarette boxes scattered on the platform behind the windshield. There are also two packets of instant noodles that have already been eaten, and a long row of seats is covered with greasy black dirt, and it is estimated that they have not been washed for a long time. There is a baffle behind the seat, and there is a door in the co-pilot's seat, and from Zhang Chengdao's position, you can see that there is a pillow and futon inside, and it is estimated that this thin man slept in it just now.
Zhang Chengdao learned a lesson from the last incident and kept his yin and yang eyes open, and when he saw that there was nothing unusual in the car, he sat down in the vacant seat next to the thin man and vigorously closed the door.
The big truck started slowly with the roar of the engine, and then sped away on the road.
The thin man took out a packet of crumpled nephrite streams that were crumpled and handed one to the big man, who took the cigarette without saying a word, his face was very gloomy, and it seemed that he was still dissatisfied with the thin man's letting Zhang Chengdao get into the car.
Then the thin man took out another one, handed it to Zhang Chengdao, and said with a smile: "Come one?" ”
Zhang Chengdao stretched out his hand to refuse, saying that he would not smoke.
The thin man didn't care, stuffed the cigarette into his mouth, squinted at Zhang Chengdao while lighting the fire and said, "Look at the age, the little brother is still a student, isn't the school open at this time?" Are you traveling? ”
When Zhang Chengdao hesitated how to explain his identity, the thin man saw the expression on his face and said, "I'll just ask, if you don't say it, just don't ask." Then he spat out a smoke ring and said, "Where do you want us to take you?" ”
Zhang Chengdao secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, when they met in Pingshui, it was better for everyone to know a little less about each other's details. Because in Zhang Chengdao's opinion, these two people have a hateful face, and the other has a roe head and a mouse with flashing eyes, and they don't look like good people no matter how they look.
"I want to go to the train station to catch the scenic spot, I don't know where you can stop by me?" Zhang Chengdao directly said where he was going, and then looked at the thin man.
The thin man took another puff of cigarette before he said hesitantly: "This~~ I guess it's unlikely that you want to catch today's train, although this train is slow, but it is rarely delayed." As he spoke, he tapped the digital clock on the dashboard. However, there is a strange thing in our place, called that trains are not as fast as cars, I don't know if you have heard of it, little brother? ”
Zhang Chengdao nodded slightly to indicate that he had heard of it, but he was thinking about whether he should take the car to continue to the scenic spot, or wait a day and take the train to the scenic spot tomorrow. If I leave tomorrow, although I will be delayed by one day, it will be equivalent to an extra day of repair time, and I can make more preparations based on the existing information. However, he immediately made up his mind, the soldiers are fast, not to mention that the enemy is still dark and I am clear, and there is no way to prepare, so it is better to rush to the scenic spot. So he said to the thin man, "Brother means to help me catch up with the train?" ”
