Chapter 4: Passing through mass graves

——————————————————————————————————————

"Why, you've heard of my father?" I asked worriedly.

Xiao Wanhui nodded, the arrogance in his eyes suddenly decreased a lot, I know that people like Lu Dao are not actually nobody, they just have respect for those who have real talents and learning. I heard Xiao Wanhui say: "When I was admitted to graduate school, my tutor once told me about your father. ”

"What's your mentor's name? Does he know my father? I asked.

Xiao Wanhui shook his head and said: "My tutor's name is Li Zhongkai, he doesn't know your father, but he once said that he had read your father's paper a long time ago, and he felt very impressed, and his views were also very novel, and he also told me that if you are interested in ancient civilization, you can try to contact your father." ”

"Then I guess you won't be able to get in touch." Gao Peng wanted to continue, but when I pinched his back, he stopped consciously.

"Why can't you get in touch?" Xiao Wanhui asked.

"Oh, for a little personal reason, my father doesn't mix much in academia anymore, and now he's just a small university professor who hardly accepts new students." That's all I can do to prevaricate her.

Xiao Wanhui seemed very disappointed, and then said: "My tutor also told me at the time, and he also said that he didn't understand why your father suddenly retired from academia back then, but my tutor firmly believes that your father should continue his research. ”

"Probably, I'm not very interested in history, so I don't know much about what my father is working on." At this point, I stopped and didn't plan to say anything more. From the performance just now, I can already see that this Xiao Wanhui is definitely a very smart woman, and I am afraid that if I talk about it more, it will be easy to reveal flaws or some things that should not be said. So he lay back on the bed, saying that he was a little tired and wanted to sleep, leaving Gao Peng to chat with the woman for a while.

I slept from the afternoon to seven o'clock in the evening. When I woke up, my head was muddy, and when I turned over, I saw that the young man in front of the bed had woken up at some point, and at this moment I was holding the book "Ideal Country" and reading it. It's really hard for me to imagine that such a young man could read such obscure things and seem to enjoy it.

Listening to Gao Peng in the middle shop again, his snoring was sounding, and he seemed to have just fallen asleep. Xiao Wanhui was lying in his sleeper listening to a song and fiddling with his mobile phone.

I was a little hungry, so I pushed open the door of the carriage and came to the aisle of the train, only to find Bu Jin standing outside the door, staring at the night scene speeding by outside the window.

However, at this time, the window was already very thick, and it was impossible to see the outside at all, but the lights in the carriage were bright, so the whole window was like a mirror reflecting Bu Jin and me standing behind her.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

Bu Jin turned her head, looked at me with her still eyes, and said, "I'm hungry and want to eat." ”

I don't know why, as soon as Bu Jin said this, I couldn't help but smile. Bu Jin rarely asks me for anything, and her personality is often that she would rather be hungry than take the initiative to ask others, and this time, I was very surprised.

I called the salesman on the train, and I bought a cup of instant noodles, and Bu Jin naturally didn't eat these things, she just asked for two boiled eggs, and then asked for a bag of milk.

Back in the carriage, Bu Jin didn't immediately climb into her own bed, but sat down next to my bed, and the two of us just sat side by side, each eating quietly. I glanced at her from time to time, and found that she also knew that her hands were hot when she was picking eggshells, and she didn't look like she was as different from ordinary people as I imagined. It's hard to imagine that she's not old for thirty years, and I can't always convince myself that she's not human.

If it's not a person, then what is it? Obviously, Bu Jin is by no means a ghost, I have grown up so big, and I have never heard of ghosts eating, sleeping, and walking freely in the sun. It's not a human, it's not a ghost, so what is she? I didn't feel scared, I just felt confused.

As I ate instant noodles, I remembered what Ryazan had told me before I left. When you arrive in Wuhan, pay attention everywhere, don't let people follow you, don't stop at the train station, leave quickly, find a hotel to settle down, don't try to take the initiative to find Ryazan, and wait patiently for his call. I have taken these warnings to heart.

I looked out the window, and I didn't know where Lu Dao was, but I thought that no matter what, I would definitely be able to reach Wuhan, Hubei by noon tomorrow.

I was staring out the window when suddenly a red dot flashed out of the dark window.

At first, I didn't pay much attention to it, but after a while, another red dot flashed, and this time, I was a little interested, put down the instant noodles in my hand, and put my face against the window to look out.

After looking around for a while, I finally got used to the darkness outside the window, but what I saw in front of me made my heart feel cold all of a sudden.

I saw that there were more and more light spots outside the window, more and more dense, and there were not only red light spots, but also green and white, mixed together, and under closer inspection, it was a person standing outside the car window. At this time, there was sleet outside, and although it was already spring, the temperature was still relatively low, and the rails were slippery, so the speed of the train was not too fast, so I could clearly see the figures.

What creeps me out is that there is a faint light on these people's bodies, because without them, I probably wouldn't have seen them at all.

Then, when I noticed that the train was passing through a large hill full of graves, my scalp exploded. I saw that those people were not dressed in modern clothes, some were Zhongshan suits when New China was founded, some were cheongsams during the Republic of China, and even some official uniforms during the Qing Dynasty.

I chuckled in my heart, could it be that these are not people, but ghosts? So I hurriedly called Gao Peng to come and see, for fear that I would be dazzled. But Gao Peng hadn't woken up yet, and he said that I was making a fuss and didn't want to get up.

On the contrary, the young man who was facing me in bed glanced curiously at the car window, and at this glance, he immediately threw away "Imaginary Country" as if he had been struck by lightning, rushed to the car window at once, unceremoniously pushed me aside, and then laboriously opened the window. A cold wind mixed with snowflakes poured into the carriage at once.

Gao Peng immediately complained: "Nervous, don't you see anyone sleeping, what kind of car window is open?" ”

However, he didn't see the scene outside the car window, so naturally he didn't understand the mood of me and the young man. Soon, Bu Jin and I, as well as Xiao Wanhui, also came to the window, and Gao Peng was the last to come down.

All of a sudden, everyone was stunned. I saw a figure with a faint light on his body standing in front of the many graves in the large mass graves outside the car window.

"No, no, hell!" Gao Peng stumbled suddenly.

I said in my heart that it's not right, even if it's a ghost, under normal circumstances, it's already good to meet a ghost in a large mass grave, how can it be that there are ghosts in front of all graves? Today is not Qingming, nor is it Halloween's Day, and you won't bump into so many ghosts.

Moreover, all of us have noticed that the ghosts are not standing still, but walking in groups, in the same direction as the train. They...... They seem to be on their way somewhere.

At this time, I suddenly noticed that the young man frowned, and kept muttering, "Something is wrong, something is wrong." ”

However, the train does not stop to take a closer look at the causes of these phenomena, and after two or three minutes, the mass graves have been left far behind the train.

The young man suddenly got up, picked up his cell phone from his bed, and then, seemingly in a hurry, rushed outside the carriage to make a call to someone.
