The train pulls into an unfamiliar city station.

It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, and the lights on the platform were blurry and warm. After the train stopped, the crowd of people getting on and off the train was like ants busy looking for food. There are vendors pushing carts selling mineral water and instant noodles back and forth, looking up with expectant eyes, everything is full of a strange feeling.

There weren't many people in car No. 9, but every seat seemed to be sparsely populated, and people who had just gotten on the train dragged their suitcases through the aisles looking for empty seats. Many of the people who were sitting were already asleep on their stomachs, in strange postures, and a few of them were not sleeping, chatting about something, or looking out through the closed car windows. There was an inexplicable smell in the carriage.

Zhuang Zhou was on this train.

Sitting opposite Zhuang Zhou was a tall and plump young woman, leaning back, wearing the kind of skirt that was open very low, and a large piece of snow-white skin on her chest was dangling in front of Zhuang Zhou's eyes, which was very dazzling. He looked around, and sitting to his right was a couple, asleep with their heads resting on their heads. On the left is a middle-aged man, who appears to be a teacher, looking intently at a magazine. Everything around him seemed too boring to Zhuang Zhou, and he yawned unconsciously.

The train restarted, and it was quiet, and only the sound of the train pressing against the rails "Katakata" could be heard. After a section of human brain that just got on and off the car, the people in the carriage stopped talking, and their indifferent faces looked sluggish, and a large black shadow flew quickly outside the carriage, and sometimes the time and shadow were staggered, skimming people's faces, and it was strange.

Zhuang Zhou, 21 years old, graduated from university and is unemployed.

Zhuang Zhou's hometown is in the mountains of southern Gansu, and when he was admitted to a key university four years ago, it caused a lot of sensation in the village and even in the township, and the old faces of his parents were really beautiful for a while. At that time, Zhuang Zhou was ambitious, and he walked out of the mountains and into a vast world he longed for, which had his ideals and dreams. However, after four years of college, he broke into the crowded society, and realized how naïve and ignorant he was at the beginning! He finally realized what it means that graduation is equal to unemployment. Girlfriend Zhu Yan stayed in the city where the university is located, where her parents run a large company. Originally, Zhu Yan said that as long as Zhuang Zhou was willing, he could stay, but maybe it was out of self-esteem, maybe it was because of his young arrogance, or simply because Zhuang Zhou himself couldn't explain it, Zhuang Zhou didn't stay, but returned to his hometown, he said to Zhu Yan: "I will open up a piece of the world, believe me!" Zhu Yan didn't say anything, nodded with tears.

Zhuang Zhou returned to his hometown in southern Gansu, and a year later, he did not even have a job -- the major he studied was of no use in this poor and backward place. After hitting the wall several times, he remembered the bold words in front of Zhu Yan and began to regret it, it seems that he is still too naïve! He paid the price for his naivety! If he had promised Zhu Yan at the beginning, maybe he would have been sitting in a spacious and bright office blowing air conditioners and drinking coffee doing a job that everyone envies, and maybe he and Zhu Yan have also married and become the fast son-in-law of the boss of that big company...... When Zhu Yan called him, he wanted to say several times, "I'd better come to you!" but he didn't say it after all. If he goes back like this without accomplishing anything, what will Zhu Yan think of him? He can't let go of this face!

After doing nothing at home for a while, Zhuang Zhou couldn't hold back anymore, he remembered his classmate An Ziyuan who was far away in Beijing, it seemed that that guy had set up an advertising company in the capital, and he was not bad, and every time he called, he always had to show off which star he cooperated with. Zhuang Zhou called An Ziyuan: "Anzi, I can't mess around, I'm looking for you to join the gang!" An Ziyuan smiled on the other end of the phone and said, "! If you kid wants to come over, don't talk nonsense!"

said to leave, Zhuang Zhou didn't call Zhu Yan to tell him, and got on the train to Beijing directly. Poor he was reluctant to buy a sleeper ticket, so he bought a hard seat and sat in the carriage all day, not to mention how uncomfortable his butt was, his back hurt and his legs cramped! However, there was still one night before Beijing, and he still had to stay up like this.

In a daze in his mind, Zhuang Zhou looked at the time, it was about to be zero, he yawned, and the sleepy worm came up, he really couldn't stand it. Turn off the mobile game you're playing and go to sleep.

As soon as I wanted to close my eyes, I saw a person walking in the aisle, covered in tatters, hooked at the waist, with long hair, draped over his shoulders, with a large messy beard, and the carriage was a little dark, and he couldn't see the person's face clearly, but those eyes were extraordinarily bright, shooting out two black lights like ink. Zhou Yu thought to himself that it was so late, this person was still strolling around here, looking at this dress, I am afraid that he was not a good person, maybe he was stealing something while it was dark. He didn't think he had much money on him, and there was nothing worth the thief visiting. He yawned again and tightened his clothes, intending to bother to pay attention.

However, Zhuang Zhou immediately felt a strange feeling, and this strange feeling made him shudder! Only then did he realize that the two eyes of the man in the dark were looking at him deadly, and Zhuang Zhou even faintly saw him smiling at himself, so weirdly smiling! He was taken aback, and then relieved: This person is a beggar, and he wants to give him something for himself! I don't know when and how this guy got on the train, these days, many beggars are fake, and there are more beggars who are much better mixed than him Zhuang Zhou. Zhuang Zhou didn't want to pay attention to it, and said that if he let him stand for a while, he would be interesting and walk away.

Zhuang Zhou closed his eyes and ignored it. However, as soon as he closed his eyes, he couldn't sleep, and the black shadow and those eyes seemed to be staring at him all the time, making him uncomfortable up and down, and he even felt a chill! Zhuang Zhou was startled, and he cursed in a low voice: "Fuck it!" and took out a coin in his pants pocket, trying to send this guy away quickly.

was digging in his pocket, and suddenly heard the man's voice say in a dumb voice: "Young man, get off the train quickly......" Zhuang Zhou raised his head, looked around, and was sure that he could only talk to himself, so he was a little confused, and said: "What did you say?" The man was still motionless, and said: "Hurry up and get off the train......" Zhuang Zhou clearly heard what he said this time, he was a little annoyed, and scolded and said: "You are insane!" Thinking that the train station is too irresponsible now, how can you let such a neurotic get on the train!

The man actually laughed out loud, walked slowly, and said as he walked: "Young man, listen to me, get out of the car......" and suddenly turned around, glared at Zhuang Zhou, his eyes flashed. Zhuang Zhou was actually hooked by his gaze, as if the light had a breathtaking power, and he was stunned for a while. It wasn't until the man walked away and disappeared into the carriage in front of him that Zhuang Zhou slowly came back to his senses, his heart pounded inexplicably, and he actually saw something familiar in that look, which made him feel terrified.

After sitting down again, Zhuang Zhou suddenly remembered: Now that it is a child, everyone in the carriage is asleep, isn't it strange that this beggar ran out to beg at this time? If it is not a beggar, then it is really just a neurotic? This neurotic seems to have specially run over to himself and say a word: "Get off the car quickly!" What does he mean? What is he hinting at himself? Zhuang Zhou thought, his head a mess. Thinking about it, sleepiness came, and slowly sank into darkness......

The train clanged through the night, and it began to rain outside, and it became heavier and heavier, and the thunder roared.

Suddenly, the train shook violently with a loud bang, and the whole carriage seemed to be pushed away from the track by a giant. Zhuang Zhou bounced up on his seat, and saw that there was chaos in the carriage, the bags on the luggage rack were smashed, and people scattered in panic, shouting, and the sound of pain rang out in a loud voice.

Zhuang Zhou immediately wondered if the train had derailed! He didn't care much, and hurriedly followed the flow of people to squeeze out, and then he heard a loud noise, and it seemed that a huge mountain had fallen down outside the train and pressed on the carriage, and the whole carriage shook violently in an instant, and half of the carriage was seriously deformed! A man walking in front of Zhuang Zhou had already reached the junction of the two carriages, and was flattened by the deformed carriage, and his flesh and blood were blurred! The carriages were still rolling, people were screaming and grabbing whatever they could, and some had already been thrown out of their seats, falling hard, their heads bleeding.

When the carriage stopped shaking, Zhuang Zhou was horrified to find that one of his legs was also pressed by the deformed seat, and the blood was pouring out, he tried to pull it out, but he failed several times, and the severe pain made him almost faint. All around was screaming and crying......

At this time, someone exclaimed: "What's outside the window?!" Zhuang Zhou looked back at the window, only to hear a loud rumbling sound from far and near, smashing on the carriage, Zhuang Zhou's eyes were dark, and he desperately pumped his legs, and with a bang, his legs were completely broken!

Zhuang Zhou screamed, sweating profusely! When he opened his eyes and looked around, he found that the carriage was still so quiet, and everyone was sleeping quietly, and the young woman opposite was awakened by his voice, glared at him in disgust, tilted her head, and fell asleep again. All I could hear was the sound of the train on the tracks.

Zhuang Zhou realized that he had a dream just now!

This dream is too scary and too real, Zhuang Zhou seems to feel that the broken leg in the dream is still aching. When he came out of the dream, he was still so nervous, and his palms were full of sweat.

Zhuang Zhou couldn't sleep for a long time, so he stared and thought about the dream just now. In a trance, he saw a black shadow flashing at the junction of the two carriages in front of him, as if it was the neurotic just now, and he suddenly remembered that the neurotic had said to him, "Get off the train quickly!" and then he had this terrible dream.

Zhuang Zhou had a very strange premonition, he stood up, walked to the front, and when he reached the junction of the two carriages, he found that the black shadow was gone.
