Chapter 17: The Night Doesn't Stop
There are a lot of rules for driving at night, drivers should pay attention not to drive tiredly, and can not look left and right, the most important point, that is, if someone stops the car in the middle of the night, must not stop. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Stopping cars on the road at night can not stop, this is not some feudal superstition, but the law of self-protection of drivers in many cases.
It must be that the vision is bad at night, and the situation is complicated and not suitable for judgment, it is easy to be used by bad people, maybe the person who stopped the car is a beautiful woman with long hair and fluttering, but the one who gets in the car will become a strong man with a sharp knife in his hand.
Therefore, try not to park at night, as the so-called invitation to God is easy to send God, which is such a reason.
Because I had such thoughts, I was really startled when Zhao Hong's pickup suddenly stopped in the middle of the night.
In a hurry, I hurriedly asked Zhao Hong what was going on, how could he park at night?
Zhao Hong did not answer immediately, but stretched out his hand and pointed to the front of the road. His face turned pale.
I looked at him with a wrong face, and with a bit of curiosity, I hurriedly followed the direction of his finger and quickly understood his concerns.
A few hundred meters away, on a country road that is not wide, there are several police cars with flashing police lights.
I rubbed my lazy eyes and comforted him half-asleep: "Aren't there just a few policemen?" It's not a female ghost, look at you're scared......"
"I know!" As Zhao Hong spoke, he pointed to his nose and said, "The key problem is that buddy is drinking!" And you don't feel ...... Is the police a little weird tonight? ”
As soon as I heard Zhao Hong's words, I immediately remembered that we were drunk driving! But what's wrong with those policemen? I don't know......
So, naturally, I said, "What's so strange about the police?" It's not normal to check drunk driving at night? ”
At this time, Momiji, who also saw everything clearly, spoke: "...... Why can't you see it? It is impossible for the police to appear on this road! ”
"Huh? Why? I asked, puzzled.
Zhao Hong nodded approvingly and said to me, "Your girlfriend is so smart...... Because this is a rural road, you can't walk a few times in a night, and the police set up a roadblock here, unless there is a problem on the road ahead. ”
I listened to Zhao Hong's words, and was silent again, looked up at the road in front of me, and suddenly realized that drunk driving is not a big problem, the most important thing is the road ahead, what happened to it?
But after all, it's not a good idea for us to wait like this, even if there is a sea of swords and fires ahead, we have to walk over and take a look first.
After a little total, all of us made up our minds, and first changed to Hyun Hongye, the only one in the car who didn't drink, and drove it, and went over to ask and talk.
And when Momiji drove the car over, we were also intercepted by the traffic police.
To my surprise, after the traffic police intercepted us, they didn't interrogate us, and they didn't even look at the car book, and just let us turn around and leave.
Surprised, we naturally didn't understand what this sudden situation was all about. After detailed inquiry, the traffic police simply told us the truth.
He said that the rural road leading to Shirengu had a "landslide" because of continuous rainfall for many days in the past few days. The road ahead was crushed by the mountain, and a few people were buried, and it would be difficult to repair it for a while.
This answer was unexpected and unlucky, and it made me feel like I was blind at the time.
I know that landslides are a common geological phenomenon, but in the north, the probability of this phenomenon is really rare, because there is very little rainfall in the north, and in addition, the mountains are mostly rocky mountains, and the structure is stable, and this phenomenon rarely occurs, and the probability is as low as winning the lottery.
But even with the same probability of winning the lottery, we just did it? This has to be reminiscent of something.
Is it that God can't get along with us, or is there some kind of hidden force that arranges all this? I do not know.
After that, the traffic police didn't explain anything to us, and at his urging, we quickly turned the car around and drove back slowly, while discussing the next route.
As I walked slowly, I first asked Zhao Hong, as a local, if there was any way to bypass the collapsed section, and if so, how to go?
Zhao Hong replied to me: "There is still a country road in the west, but if we go around it now, I'm afraid we won't be able to get there tomorrow morning." ”
His words made my heart sink.
So, I went on to ask, "Isn't there a trip to the nearest place?" The old squad leader's side...... I'm afraid I can't wait that long. ”
My words made Zhao Hong fall silent. From his face, I suddenly saw an anxious emotion, and there seemed to be some kind of consideration in that mood.
"What's the problem?" I was infected by his concerns, so I asked.
Zhang Hong's thoughts quickly disappeared, and then, he regained his composure, smiled at me, and said that it was okay.
After that, Zhao Honghu reminded me: "I know a shortcut, but the road condition is not very good." Let's go ahead, and we'll be there in a moment. ”
"And a shortcut?" I was pleasantly surprised, and I worried for him again: "Okay, okay?" Don't scratch your car. ”
Zhao Hong shook his head indifferently and said: "It's okay, it's an 'old Qi road', it's very flat, and it's not next to the mountain, it's been abandoned for a long time, let's go slower." ”
As Zhao Hong spoke, I suddenly felt very curious, so I asked him what an old Qi Lu was, and why it was abandoned later.
Zhao Hong told me that he was also a mountain dweller in the Yimeng Mountains before he joined the army, and although he doesn't come back often, he often walked mountain roads when he was a child.
In his memory, at that time, Yimeng Mountain did not have the road network that extends in all directions now, and some were only dirt roads winding in mountain streams and those "old Qi roads" that were slightly wider in the valley.
Why do you call the flat road between the valleys Lao Qi Road? In fact, this is also related to the special geographical location of Yimeng Mountain.
Because of the dangerous terrain and closed traffic, Yimeng Mountain was the natural dividing line between Qi and Shandong in ancient times.
Historically, the two countries of Qi and Lu often attacked each other in this area, and they left many military facilities related to it.
The old Qi Road, on the other hand, is said to be one of these many military installations.
No one knows the exact history of the old Qi Dao, the older generation only passes on by word of mouth, this is the war road of transporting grain and grass when the Qi and Lu countries exchanged troops, because of the special strategic significance of the road, so the damage in the war is not very serious, many sections can still walk, and are used to this day.
According to Zhao Hong's recollections, when he was in junior high school, he passed by the old Qi Road near the stone valley several times, and he still remembers that although the road was compacted, it was still very wide. There are more than a dozen on the side of the road
"Stone Man" as a "landmark".
When I heard this, I couldn't help but interject: "There are stone people on the side of the road!" That's interesting. ”
Zhao Hong nodded and replied: "Actually, it's just a few big stones, and people are attached to them." The stone is very weathered, and I can't tell if it's artificial or natural, I just hear the old people say that those stone people are ......"
Zhao Hong paused slightly when he said this, as if he was thinking about what to say and what not to say, before continuing: "...... It is a Taishan stone that runs down from the stone mangu. The ...... that was set by the gods on the side of the road and used to suppress the evil spirits"
"Oh!" Hearing this, all of us nodded, and couldn't help urging Momiji to speed up the drive. It seems that everyone is looking forward to seeing those stone figures standing on the side of the road as soon as possible, and by the way, they are sticky to the fairy qi.
During the journey, Zhao Hong told us that there are not many old Qi roads now, and most of them have been replaced by cement roads and highways......
While speaking, Zhao Hong suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the side of the road and said, "Look! Isn't that what it is? ”
We followed his instructions, suddenly stretched out our heads to look, and sure enough, at the edge of the country road, we found a very secret and intertwined fork in the road.
At the beginning of the fork in the road, I also saw the "stone man" that Zhao Hong told me.
Actually, it was just a small half-human-sized stone, hidden among the weeds, and it looked like a figure crawling in the grass. In the rising moonlight, looking at it from a distance, it still looks like a human taste, but if you take a closer look, it will be completely empty. All that could be seen was a stone as white as dry bones.
After turning the head of the car, Xian Hongye gave up the driver's position, and we were led by Zhao Hong again, and drove into the mud-cast, almost completely forgotten old Qi Road.
As I entered, I took one last look at the white lying stone man, but suddenly I noticed a wild cat walking slowly past the stone man, staring at us curiously with a pair of eyes, and from its eyes, a cautious blue light emanated.
I don't know why, those eyes reminded me of the king's roar and hunger, and I felt that those cat's eyes were so similar to the eyes I saw in the mirror.
"I hope nothing happens again." I look forward to it from the bottom of my heart.
Then, Zhao Hong started the car, and we quickly entered the road that had been hidden for many years. The wild cat was quickly left behind by us.
…… In the beginning, we went pretty well.
The car drove smoothly and the road was much easier than I thought. After passing through the thorny grass at the beginning, the road immediately became wider, and I suddenly felt like I was running on a two-way four-lane road.
However, for the sake of caution, we are still moving at a relatively slow pace.
And surely, we are not taking a regular journey, if we really run with joy, in case we encounter some situations, it will not be easy to react.
Maybe because of the good road conditions, every one of us sitting in the car felt a little sleepy.
For a while, the fatigue and alcohol of this day came to my head, which made the whole car drowsy, and I was angry again and again.
In the chaos, I even had a dream that I arrived at the old squad leader's house, and the old squad leader was standing in front of the entrance of his house, with his smiling face and a kitchen knife in his hand, welcoming us.
I looked at the old squad leader, and I was happy at the time, and while hugging each other, I pointed to the kitchen knife in the old squad leader's hand and asked him why he saw that I was going to take such a thing, and it was bloody, like he had just killed a chicken.
The old squad leader smiled even more happily at that time, and he held the kitchen knife in his hand and said that this was a meeting gift for me, an heirloom of their family, and asked me to accept it.
As soon as I heard this, I was stunned at the time, and I specified that I couldn't ask for it! Lei Ren's kind of treasure that can be seen by the old thing that is about to enter the ground, where can I afford it, and it is the honor of the old squad leader's family for several generations.
But in the dream, when the old squad leader heard that I didn't want it, he stopped doing it.
He smiled and said that I have to ask for it if I don't want it, otherwise, he will personally kill me with a kitchen knife.
After that, the old squad leader really slashed at me with a kitchen knife, no matter how I yelled, the old squad leader also resolutely slashed at my head!
Immediately after, I was awakened by the inertia of Zhao Hong's brakes! My head hit the front seat, and it hurt to death in an instant, and it was the same as the part of the old squad leader who cut me in my dream.
In pain, I soothed my injured forehead while complaining, "Lao Zhao! Why are you in such a hurry to brake? There's a ghost up ahead? ”
Zhao Hong's face was pale and frightened, he looked back at me, and then slowly stretched out his hand, pointed to the front of the road and said, "If it's a ghost, I won't stop...... Look at the people in front of you...... Feasting and eating? ”
"What?" I'm stupid.
In this wilderness, in the middle of the night, how can anyone have a feast and eat?
