Chapter 46: Taxi
With a bang, the heavy wooden frame smashed on top of another row of wooden frames, most of the glass doors of hundreds of small cells were shattered, countless urns broke out of the doors and fell to the ground, and the lids of many boxes were broken open, and the ashes inside were scattered all over the ground.
I choked on the ashes and coughed, and quickly covered my mouth, knowing that it would definitely alarm the people in the office hall outside, so I held my head and trotted away to a few rows of wooden shelves diagonally opposite.
The staff ran over from the office hall and stood at the door, obviously he was also afraid, and his voice was trembling: "What, what's going on?" Two more people ran in from outside the Spirit Bone Tower, and asked what was wrong, and the staff said, "I don't know, it seems that the spirit skeleton has fallen!" ”
Someone asked in confusion, "How can the spirit skeleton fall?" Turn on the lights! ”
The lights were turned on, and the hall of the Spirit Bone Tower was bright, and the three people ran to the toppled wooden frame to check, and I took the opportunity to run out, fortunately no one found out, and when I was about to escape from the office hall to the staircase, I didn't know what was going on, and I tripped under my feet, and fell on, and my face was broken.
"Who?" Someone shouted and asked. I got up and ran down the stairs towards the door of the funeral home, and when I looked back, I saw that the three people had left the office hall and were hurrying down the stairs in pursuit, shouting "Stop, don't fucking run", "Lao Zhao, chase that kid" and the like. I know that it will be miserable if I am caught up, not to mention being beaten and broken, and so many urns are broken, and my family members are not allowed to kill me?
Escaping from the funeral home gate, I desperately ran towards the west of the road, a taxi drove slowly through the path, and I hurriedly stood in the middle of the road and raised my hand to block the door. Two men sitting on the side of the road chatting looked at me curiously, and one man said, "What's the matter with that man?" ”
The taxi slowly stopped, I opened the back door and got in, there was a young woman sitting in the back, I couldn't care so much, and said to the driver, "Quick, drive away!" ”
The driver asked, "Where to go?" ”
I saw through the car window that six or seven people were about to chase me to the gate, and I was so anxious that I shouted, "You go ahead first!" Come on! The driver started the car and headed west. I looked back and saw the men behind me chasing out the gate, scolding as they ran, but they couldn't outrun the taxi. The distance got farther and farther, and I let out a long breath, leaned my head back on the back of the chair, and covered the place where I had just choked, and it hurt hotly.
To the west of the funeral home is Yuhong District, which is surrounded by large areas of undeveloped wasteland, with no street lights and no homes. After a few minutes, the pain in my face became less, and I realized that the driver had not asked me where I was going, and the young woman sitting next to me had not spoken or even looked at me. The woman had short hair, glasses, and very white skin. I asked the driver, "Where are you going?" ”
The driver replied: "Guanyin Village." ”
I said, "Big brother, then you send her to the place, and then go to Wanghua Street." ”
The driver said, "My car only goes to Guanyin Village." ”
This answer surprised me, and I thought maybe the driver would go home after arriving at Guanyin Village, although I don't know where Guanyin Village is, but I can only agree, it's a big deal to call a taxi to Guanyin Village.
The taxi entered the side road from the main road, and did not turn a corner, just drove for about ten minutes, the road became more and more desolate, and occasionally you could see people walking slowly on the side of the road. In the end, both sides of the road were full of fields, and there was not even a single light except for the headlights of the cars. I couldn't help but ask the driver: "Big brother, how far is Guanyin Village?" ”
The driver replied, "It's almost there." "I thought to myself, this woman looks fashionably dressed, and it is not easy to live in such a remote rural area. After a few more minutes, the taxi stopped on the side of the road, the woman opened the door and went down, the car continued to drive, I looked back, and the young woman was standing on the side of the road, and as the car drove farther and farther, it was gradually out of sight. I'm very strange, there is no village in front of this place, there is no store in the back, where is her home? I suddenly remembered one thing, the woman who got out of the car just now didn't seem to pay, but then I thought that maybe I would have negotiated the fare when I got on the bus, and I had already paid it first.
I asked the driver, "This is Guanyin Village?" The driver hummed.
I regret it, this place, where to call another car? I asked again, "Big brother, can you send me to Wanghua Street?" ”
The driver said, "My car only goes to Guanyin Village." He still said that.
"And where are you going now?" I asked.
The driver replied: "The next stop is Wujiagou." ”
I wondered, this is not a bus, how can there be a fixed stop? Hurriedly said: "I don't want to go to Wujiagou, big brother, let's discuss, you send me back to the funeral home the same way, I'll give you more money, okay?" ”
The driver looked at me: "The third stop is Majiawa, and the next stop is Dongshan Tsuizi." I hurriedly told him that I didn't know any of these places, and I didn't want to go, so either you would take me to Wanghua Street, or you would take me back to the funeral home the same way.
The driver had doubts in his eyes: "You don't go to these places, so what are you doing in the car?" ”
I couldn't help laughing: "You're a taxi, you should go anywhere, why are you still like a bus, stop at one stop?" ”
The driver said, "This is not a taxi. ”
"And what kind of car are you?" I asked.
The driver replied, "Shuttle bus." ”
"Where do you get the ferry from?" I didn't get it.
The driver said, "From four-seven to five-seven." ”
I was completely confused, I thought the driver was mentally ill, and I wanted to get out of the car, but there was wasteland on both sides of the road, and I couldn't even recognize the direction, how could I get home after getting off? I was sitting in the right seat in the back seat, it was dark in the car, I took out my phone and said to the driver to turn on the lights in the car, I want to make a call. The driver said, "The inner light is broken." "I thought to myself, what a coincidence, nothing to ask for. Looking sideways, I suddenly found that the dashboard in front of the driver was also pitch black, no wonder it was so dark in the car.
I asked, "Big brother, is your car broken, why is the dashboard not lit up?" ”
The driver hummed, noncommittal.
I asked again, "Then how are you going to drive this car?" Speed and fuel consumption are not visible. ”
The driver didn't answer and continued to drive. I felt furious in my heart, and I felt more and more that this driver was different from normal people. After another seven or eight minutes, I asked the driver how long the next stop was, and the driver didn't answer, still driving. I couldn't help but reach out and pat him on the right shoulder: "Big brother, what can I talk to you?" ”
The driver slowly looked back at me: "It's almost there." ”
I didn't dare to speak anymore, my heart was about to come out of my throat, my brain was racing, and I was thinking about how to get out. At this moment, the driver stopped the car and I asked, "What's the matter, it's out of gas?" ”
"I'll make it easier." The driver said, then opened the door and walked to the grass on the side of the road. I thought to myself, should I take the opportunity to get out of the car and leave? But this neighborhood is so desolate, I don't know how to find my way home? After about five minutes, the driver didn't come back, and ten minutes, he didn't come back. Is it diarrhea? After nearly ten minutes, I couldn't help but get out of the car and shouted a few times as I walked to the driver's convenient position on the side of the road, but no one answered. I turned on the flash light on my phone, and I searched all the grass nearby, but there was no one at all.
I shouted, "What about people? Hey, where are you? "In the open field, my shouts were very loud, but still no one answered. I knew that the driver must be odd, so I didn't wait any longer, so I quickly got back in the car and sat in the driver's seat, started the engine and drove the taxi away.
After driving like this for more than ten minutes, there were still only large areas of wild land on both sides of the road, not to mention people, and I didn't even see a fork in the road. I'm strange, although I can't tell the direction, but no matter which direction I drive, how can I still encounter a village, right? Looking out of the car window, there were no stars or moons in the sky, but how do I remember that when I first arrived at the funeral home, there was a moon in the sky?
After a few more minutes, the headlights shone on a man standing on the side of the road about a hundred meters ahead, looking like he was peeing. Guarded, I slowly pulled the car to a stop and poked my head out to stare at it. The man turned and walked towards me, and his figure was familiar, as if he were the driver of the car.
Sure enough, the driver walked to the front of the car, pulled the door, and I quickly moved to the co-pilot, and the driver got into the car and sat down, and started the car in gear. I asked, "How did you facilitate it for so long?" Half an hour. ”
The driver looked at me: "I only peed for two minutes." ”
