Chapter 3: The Mysterious Stone
The bus stopped at the rest area, which is one of the stops where the bus usually stops to rest, for passengers to relieve their hands, buy snacks, throw out garbage, etc.
I heard that more than 1,000 meters away is a mine, and in the early days there were people who opened mines here, but then the national policy came down, and this place was stopped.
However, some living facilities, such as toilets, shops, small restaurants, etc., were still left behind, and also provided convenience for passing passengers, and over time, this became one of the rest places for buses.
The passengers on the car got out of the car in twos and threes to breathe. Xu Zifan also got out of the car, looking at the dense fog around him, Xu Zifan frowned, he would have arrived home in another hour or two, and now he doesn't know when he will wait.
The passengers around him were talking about the change in the sky, and they also said that there must be something strange about this thick fog, maybe the world is really going to change.
"Do you feel that from yesterday to today, your body feels more and more relaxed, as if you have broken free from the shackles and regained your freedom." A passenger said to the people around him.
"Don't say it, I rushed back from Tibet, I have been riding in the car for more than ten hours all the way, I have been in the car for so long before, and back pain is inevitable, but now I feel that my body is very good, and I can sit in the car for more than ten hours." The person next to the passenger said with a smile.
"Indeed, my old cold leg doesn't hurt anymore, it has tormented me for more than ten years, and it has slowly improved in the past two days, and I basically don't feel any pain now." Someone next to him interjected after hearing it.
"Some people say that this celestial anomaly may be the end of the world, to say, this is not the end of the world, this is the bright age, you see, our bodies have improved a lot more or less." Someone said happily.
Xu Zifan has been listening to the conversation of everyone around him, saying everything, and some are silent like him, everyone has their own ideas.
However, Xu Zifan couldn't help but flash the black shadow standing quietly in the tombstone group he saw last night, and he couldn't help but shudder, maybe he was dazzled and misunderstood, he could only comfort himself like this.
Maybe this world is not so peaceful, not as optimistic as some people think.
"Come and see, the grass is so tall outside. The world is changing so fast. Someone shouted from the fence on the edge of the resting place.
"Yes, when I came to the provincial capital the day before yesterday, I also rested here, and the grass on the grass outside was only two centimeters high, and I didn't think it was a foot now." Someone walked up to the fence and said.
Xu Zifan also followed the flow of people to the fence, looked at the grass two or three meters away, and saw that the grass was green, each grass was green, and the breath of life was strong.
Someone had already stepped out of the fence and into the meadow, pulling up some grass to see, "It's the usual grass, but it's grown a lot taller." ”
"Look, what did I pick?" I saw a woman in her twenties holding a flower in her hand.
The flowers are blue, the size of an adult man's fist, crystal clear, with a misty blue mist, like a dream, the fragrance of flowers hits people, bursts of fragrance come, everyone gathers around the woman to watch.
"Wow, what kind of flower is this, it's so beautiful, I've never seen such a beautiful flower." Someone praised.
"yes, it's beautiful!" There was a lot of talk around the people.
"There's still one over there, you can dig some up and take it home and raise it," the woman said with a smile, pointing to the twenty meters ahead.
Everyone walked to the place pointed by the woman, and sure enough, they saw a cluster of blue flowers growing, about twenty or so, beautiful, surrounded by a blue mist, like a dream.
People who like to raise flowers have dug up their roots and are ready to take them home to raise, and everyone is amazed, there are such beautiful flowers, this world is really different.
Xu Zifan watched thoughtfully as a few people came back with blue flowers in the mud, and also walked to the place where the blue flowers bloomed, which was originally a small mound, but now it is a mess, and the flowers on it have been dug up.
Xu Zifan picked up a long strip of stone on the ground next to him, squatted down and dug the small mound with the stone, he wanted to see if there was anything strange in it.
After turning over the soil vigorously, he found that it was ordinary soil, and there was nothing peculiar, at this moment, Xu Zifan saw a flash of blue light in the soil, and used stones to dig the soil here.
"Click!"
A soft sound came, and the stone in Xu Zifan's hand touched a hard object, and the sound was the sound of a stone scratching a hard object.
Xu Zifan brushed aside the soil and found that it was a sky-blue stone, the size of a thumb, not very regular, and the overall blue light was shining.
Xu Zifan held it in his hand, and felt the extraordinaryness of this sky blue stone in his heart, and it was as light as nothing.
He looked around, the fog was too big, too far away to see clearly, listening to the sound, everyone was looking around for other things, some said to have found wild fruits.
Then he continued to dig by himself, because this is a big mountain, usually there are few people, and it has just rained, so the soil is soft, but it is easy to dig, after digging almost a foot deep, after not seeing the root system of the blue flower, Xu Zifan stopped digging.
He dug up a total of three sky blue stones, the last two, both smaller than the first, and he put the sky blue stones in his pocket and returned to the fence resting place.
While resting, I turned on the news on my mobile phone to check the latest news.
Now there is more news on the Internet, there are high-definition photos, and even some people have taken videos, some people have photographed a sparrow the size of an eagle flying over the roof of his house, and some people have photographed ants the size of a fist.
There is even a post that is even more terrifying, saying that the landlord's family lives in a small mountain village and retains the way of burial.
A few days ago, a person died in his village, and today his relatives went to burn Touqi, and found that the tomb had been dug up, the coffin lid inside had been opened, but the body was gone, and this incident had caused panic in their village.
However, looking at the comments below, most of you still don't believe it, but some people say that the world is different now, and anything can happen.
"Get in the car, now you can go." The driver shouted, it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun had dispersed some of the fog.
"I don't know how long this fog will last, and it's not easy for drivers to do their jobs now!" A passenger said.
"Yes, after the car went back today, I resigned and retired at home, the world has really changed, I don't know what will happen next, or safety first, I have called my daughter who works in the field to come home too." The driver said as he drove.
"My kid has also come back in the past two days, and now the young man has finally been out for a few years, and his job is stable, but this is a bad thing." An uncle sighed.
After driving for more than two hours, I finally arrived at the county seat, Xu Zifan's house was in the county seat, because it was originally a small county town, so it was a ten-minute walk from the station to home.
