Chapter 70: A Bustling Street
The fat man rolled his eyes and tried to sort out this logical relationship line in his mind, but every time it was chaotic for a while, after a few times, he simply stopped thinking about it, and fell asleep with his eyes closed.
I'm the same, I'm haunted by my thoughts, and I can't find a real way out anyway, and the only way out that each line ultimately leads is to continue the game, and finally end with success in reaching the end or dying.
Xiu'er leaned on my shoulder, looking into the distance, the bleak and bleak autumn scenery will always inadvertently bring people a faint sense of sadness, and people can't stop feeling sad in their hearts. It seems that this car is carrying everyone to the end of the world. The more she looked at it, the more panicked she became, and gradually closed her eyes, her nose twitched rhythmically, and she fell asleep unconsciously.
The convoy finally got off the road on the afternoon of the second day, drove on the potholed path, and the successive shaking made everyone not sleep well at all, so they had to cheer up and support themselves to the territory of Zhoushan, I did the co-pilot, looked outside, the first thought was that this is not like a scene of frequent wars, the city is lively and extraordinary, and the residents are not surprised to see the vehicles, it is no wonder that Zhoushan is near the sea, and the water trade is developed, which can be described as well-informed.
However, this is also convenient for everyone, this trip, just don't attract too much attention, as soon as possible to pick up things and leave is the best.
Seeing our motorteam entering, the owners of inns and guest houses on the side of the road all ran to the side of the car to greet him and stay at his house, seemingly very enthusiastic, but I didn't expect this place to have such a strong commercial atmosphere. The car drove slowly, I didn't expect this place to be so crowded and noisy before I came here, and now it's troublesome, how to meet the old ghost?
Datou took the map provided by Ah Wu, looked up at the sun, felt that the sky was still bright, and said, "Let's go directly to Shengzhou County and stop again." There are many people here, and I am afraid that there will be more trouble. ”
"But what about the old ghost? It stands to reason that if he had left immediately after my call, he would have arrived long ago. I asked, looking anxiously out.
"We can only hope that he will find us. It's really strange, it's almost evening, why are there so many people on the street, even in Beiping City, it is difficult to see such a lively scene. Is something going on? The big head said suspiciously, rolled up the window, and asked a young man, "Hello, may I ask if you are so lively here every day?" ”
The young man glanced at our car, probably regarded everyone as a big boss, and replied in a good tone, "Where can it, if it was so prosperous every day, Zhoushan would have been rich a long time ago." No, a week ago, all of a sudden, there were many, many strange faces coming in from out of town, and most of the slightly better inns in the city were full. Originally, this was nothing, but it happened that a major event happened at the Yuelai Inn in the east of the city this morning, saying that all the guests in several rooms died overnight, and the people who alarmed the troops came, affecting a lot of daily business in the city, so as you can see, the market that should have ended long ago has continued to the present. ”
"Thank you." After thanking the big head with a smile, his brows tightened and he began to think.
This is definitely not a coincidence, more than a week ago, almost the time when we came out of Shennongjia with the coffin, so it is possible that the outsiders who have rushed to Zhoushan in recent days have come for the same goal. In that case, it's tricky.
Sure enough, as the vehicle moved forward little by little, there were more and more large vehicles parked in front of the roadside restaurant, and the men who obviously looked like a family in twos and threes cast a vigilant look at our group, but fortunately, no one dared to take the initiative to come forward.
"Gotta find a place to stop and ask what's going on in the city." Pang Qinghe said: "It's impossible, these people all know all at once, the ancestral hall of that organization is here, and they all rushed here." ”
He Lao Er heard this and said, "In any city, there is no one who is the most well-informed than the street vendors, and the cars drive slower, let me see which of these people on the street looks the most bright." ”
After about ten minutes, He Lao Er suddenly shouted "stop". His gaze was locked on a thin, short, dark-skinned middle-aged man with no one in front of the stall, and He Lao Er got out of the car and walked straight towards the man.
I rolled down the window, because it was not far away, and the conversation between the two of them could be heard clearly, so when I heard it, I immediately felt that this trip might be more auspicious.
After stuffing five hundred yuan in a row, the treacherous and cunning peddler said with a satisfied smile: "Our place, it is also very strange, in the past few months, because a large number of local armed forces in the previous years of the war heroically captured a lot of foreign devils' weapons and equipment, occupy the king, even after the establishment of the new country are not willing to be captured, one after another with the official troops to fight guerrilla warfare, with the familiarity of the geographical location, in the past few years, there have been victories and defeats, the losses of the troops are also quite heavy, There is really no way to take them, so they are so glued to it. We, ordinary people, are really miserable, but this bitter battle, which has lasted for several years, was inexplicably completely ended in only half a day about seven days ago. Strange! I still remember that in the early hours of that morning, more than a dozen helicopters and thousands of heavily armed soldiers seemed to appear out of thin air, and rushed directly to the lair of local forces, and the sound of bullets sounded like firecrackers for several hours. Gunpowder exploded, one after another. The noise of the helicopter propellers made the whole city tremble. Naturally, under such a fierce offensive, those soldiers who were still asleep couldn't run away from being beaten, but they were indeed ruthless characters, and when they saw that they couldn't run, they fought fiercely with a large number of troops, and the blood sprayed and even dyed the sun red. As a result, it can be imagined that by noon, the local strength of hundreds of people was wiped out, and only a dozen or so people were lucky enough to escape. But the condition of the troops was not very good, and they were stunned to shoot down a plane for them, killing and wounding three or four hundred people. In any case, the war that had been on and off for several years and had caused the people to live in poverty had finally come to an end. ”
"It's not just that the troops decided in the split second to go all out and destroy them at all costs. What's more, starting the day after that bloody battle, the whole city returned to prosperity in the blink of an eye, with countless outsiders coming in batches and all kinds of vehicles parked everywhere. If everyone was frightened by the tragedy of the bloody battle, then the large number of banknotes sent by outsiders who followed followed made everyone happy. At first, we saw outsiders coming with a lot of money, of course, we were only excited, but as the days passed, the number of people who came did not decrease but increased, and it seemed strange. Later, out of curiosity, I inquired and learned that those people seemed to have come because of a treasure in the vicinity that was said to be rich in treasure. ”
The peddler looked at He Laoer, "Listening to the accent, you look like a boss from Beiping, you must be aiming for that treasure." If so, the little one might be able to serve as a guide for you. As he spoke, he suddenly looked left and right to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, and then he continued in a low voice: "Don't look at so many big bosses, but so far they don't even know where the treasure is, and they are completely headless flies scurrying around. But I know the approximate location, so if you invite me, it will save a lot of time. ”
