Chapter 146: The Struggle Between the Left and the Right
"Shopee, your views are too fatalistic. I smiled wryly and shook my head.
"Kesi, you can't let him go now, because the passport and visa have already been completed, and there is no way to change it. ”
"Well, what's going on?" I really wanted to hit my head on the ground, and I was afraid that people would say it was "Buyi's anger".
There's no way, it looks like I'll have to take that scum with me.
Two days later, we arrived in San Francisco, USA, ready to go to the mysterious ghost villa. The cold moon, who had given mysterious orders to John and his gang several times, and who had never seen the end of the dragon, lived there. I wonder if we will be able to see this mysterious cold moon this time? Also, will the woman we saw in vain be cold moon? What kind of person is cold moon?
Each of us is a little nervous.
A dozen of us dressed as tourists took an old train to the town of Terring, home to the ghost capital villa in the middle of the desert. The town of Tring is about 200 kilometers from downtown San Francisco. It's actually a deserted town, and because it's in the middle of the desert, it's a bit difficult to get around. We could have done a car to get there. But the farmers say that the old-fashioned trains here have a different flavor, so it is better to go and enjoy them. We took the farmer's word and got on the old train.
The train was even more dilapidated than the last one we had taken in Tunguska, and there were only three carriages, each with only seven or eight passengers, and our group filled one carriage! and the train was so slow that even the oxen walking on the side of the road could overtake the train.
It took three or four hours to reach the outskirts of the town of Therin. And the old car broke down and threw us in the wilderness three or four miles away from the town of Therring. We had no choice but to move forward on foot.
At the moment, eleven large backpacks were organized, and one person carried one. The backpack contained tents, sleeping bags, drinking water, compressed biscuits, flashlights, compasses and the like, as well as tools such as sapper shovels, pickaxes, pickaxes, and saw blades, as well as daggers, anti-wolf knives, climbing cables, hooks, oxygen cylinders, some medicines, disinfectant and bandage gauze, as well as cooking pots and other items.
The main thing, of course, is that we still have several weapons hidden in our backpacks, such as rifles and revolvers. When we were in San Francisco, we entrusted Mr. Webb, the head of the San Francisco branch of the General Administration for the Prevention of Paranormal Disasters on Earth, to help us buy them in the civilian weapons market.
Three years ago, the fame made us have a lot of convenience in this world. It's a pity that we don't have the same scenery as we did three years ago......
These eleven backpacks, each weighing more than 80 pounds (the girls are slightly lighter, but there are also more than 60 pounds), we put on the backpacks and began to set off for the town of Trin.
We had a guide, but the guide was waiting for us at the train station in Terring, so we had to walk three or four miles to meet the guide in Terring. Without the guidance of a guide, our group of people could only embark on this unknown journey like headless flies.
It was five o'clock in the afternoon, and the red light of the sun reflected on the desert like a splash of blood. We walked towards the town of Tlyn in this blood-red light.
Heng Qi and Xie Ke walked in the front to open the way, Yang Liu and I walked three or four meters behind them, the farmer and the old god followed us three or four meters behind, behind the farmer and the old god were Gao Weizhen and Jiang Rulan, the two beauties were Liu Yong and Zhu Fenglian, and Huang Ran ran fell behind the back. Huang Ran didn't know what was going on, but he was seven or eight meters away from the person in front of him, so that he had to chase forward desperately. Rao is so, he still can't catch up with the people in front.
In order to wait for this to be more than successful and more than to fail, I had to repeatedly beckon the people in front of me to stop and wait for him.
In fact, because each of us carried a heavy load, the overall speed of the march was not very fast, and it took us more than half an hour to walk a mile or two, and the town of Terring was still nowhere to be seen, and all we could see was a long stretch of yellow sand, and the plants of the desert such as cacti. You can't see anyone, you can't see any animals, not even a bird.
"This place is so lifeless!" Yang Liu exclaimed.
I glanced at her and said, "Yang Liu, are you okay?"
Yang Liu gasped and replied, "It's okay." ”
"Well, hold on a little longer, and we're going to get to our destination. I cheered her up.
"Kesi, there are two forks in the road, which way shall we go?" Heng Qi shouted in front.
I told them to wait and then walked to the front to observe the situation.
We were following the railroad in the direction of the town of Trin, but there was a fork in the road ahead of us, one left and one right, going around the sides of a fixed sand dune of tens of meters.
Which side leads to Tellin?
The farmer interjected, "The town of Telling is northwest of the city of San Francisco, and we can get to the town of Telling by going northwest, and the rest of the directions must be wrong." ”
"Which side is northwest?" Xie Ke asked.
The peasant pointed to the left, "In this direction, of course." ”
I couldn't decide which way to go at the moment, so I agreed with the peasant and said, "Okay, let's go to the left!"
"Wait a minute!" Huang ran ran and suddenly caught up from behind. This lack of success and more than failure really deserves its reputation, carrying a big backpack, it ran faster than a dog, so much so that it almost rushed to the old god. The old god hurriedly flashed to the side, and tugged at his head to pull it out so that he didn't hit himself.
"What are you doing Huang Run, are you in a hurry to be reincarnated?" everyone shouted.
"Look at which side the turnout stops, which side leads to Terling Town!" Huang Ranran said as he ignored the taunts of the crowd and looked at me breathlessly.
"What do you mean?" I hadn't yet spoken, and the crowd had already gone out in my place.
"We came by train to Terring, and now the train has broken down, and there are no other trains passing here, so this switch must only be for our train, and whichever side of the switch is next to the train will go on, which side is the right road!
Huang Ranran's words are really impeccable. I nodded and said, "Yes, you're right. ”
When I checked the turnout, it turned out that it was right next to it. In other words, the right is the one that leads to the town of Trin.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and they all looked at me with their eyes. I scratched my scalp, looked to the right and said, "Looks like we have to go to the right." ”
The peasant said, "But, it's clear that the left is the northwest!"
Indeed, the northwest is on the left, and if you go to the right, it is the northeast, although it is not the opposite of each other, but it is also the opposite of the east.
"Please, don't be so mechanical, okay?Saying that Terring Town is in the northwest, that's just a general direction, can't it turn northeast first, and then turn northwest?" said Huang Runran, tilting his granite head and looking at us.
"Kesi, let's go to the left, I'm still not at ease with what I say about not enough success and more than failure!" The peasant said with his somewhat pointed, bald head.
"Let's go! People who have not achieved enough things and have more than enough failures can't have the right time?" Heng Qi glanced at the peasants, and Xie Ke took the lead on the right road.
Although we were very confused, we vaguely felt that Huang ran made sense, so we all followed the road on the right.
The sun had set, but the earth was still a red blood, like dried human blood! The twilight had thickened, and the shadows of the distant mountains had begun to envelop here.
"This scene is too weird, does it indicate something unlucky?" Liu Yong scratched his head.
"This is your imagination, isn't it?, what's unlucky?" Zhu Fenglian retorted.
I don't know how long I walked, but there was still no trace of Terring, and the sky was getting darker and darker.
"Brother, I can't walk anymore. Yang Liu suddenly looked at me and said.
I looked at her, and saw that her whole back had bent, her face was covered with sweat, and her mouth was panting, and she looked like she was indeed overwhelmed.
"Ouch, I'm so tired, we can't walk anymore, where is that Terling Town? Why can't you walk after half an hour? Isn't it only two or three miles away?"
"Let's put our backpacks down and let's take a break. "I motioned for everyone to put down their backpacks and rest, and at the same time beckoned Hengqi and the farmers and others to come over to discuss countermeasures.
After a while, Heng Qi, the farmer, the old god, Huang Paopao and others all leaned over.
I looked at them and said, "Why haven't we been here for so long?" ”
The farmer said: "I think there is only one reason, and that is that we are going wrong!"
"But how do you explain the turnout, and why is it so close to the right?" asked Huang Ranran, retortingly.
"This ...... How do I know? Maybe someone made a trick and deliberately made the switch to the right?"
"I think you're the one who makes trouble!" Huang Ranran looked directly at the peasant road.
"Let's let the facts speak, I don't favor which of you, I'll just ask one thing, where is the town of Telin?" Heng Qi looked at Huang Ran and the farmer.
"Kosi, over there...... I found the shadow of the street, could it be the town of Tellin?" Xie Ke suddenly ran over out of breath.
