I thought about it for a moment, and then said to the little Taoist, "Ma Cheng, the bat spirit is by your side now?"

When the little Taoist priest heard this, he immediately responded: "Yes, but he said that he is still busy with the aftermath of cooking, so he plans to leave here later." ”

Hearing this, I hurriedly stopped: "Ma Cheng, you sue him, be sure to wait for me to pass." I still have some details to ask him, and I'll be sure to meet you as quickly as possible. ”

"Okay, big brother, I know! I'll tell him, by the way, you don't know where we are, I'm in Guizhou now, when you arrive, call me!"

Hearing this, I nodded and said, "Okay, Ma Cheng, then let's do this first!" After speaking, I hung up the phone.

After putting away my phone, I took a deep breath and hurried north. I don't know how far it is from the city, but I just need to find a road, or a town, or a village.

There are no roads in the canyon, I have trodden on my own. This reminds me of a text I read when I was a child, that there was no road on the ground, and when there were more people walking, it became a road.

I recall that from the time I left Longxing Town to H City, then to the Difu and the Asura Road, and finally came here, I didn't have any direction along the way, and almost all of them crossed the river by feeling the stones.

During this journey, if I had a slight business trip, I would have died on the road. I'm glad I'm alive, and I'm confident that I'm going to live well.

Okay, let's get down to business. I had good luck today, because I had been walking for less than an hour when I noticed a village in front of me.

This village is not one of the backward villages that I often come across, because in this village I saw small buildings, neat streets, and happy people.

There are taxis in town, and although they are not the regular ones in the city, they are much better than black cars. I quickly stepped forward, flagged down a taxi, and got straight in.

The driver was an old man in his fifties, wearing thick nearsighted glasses and a warm smile on his face.

"Where's the young man?"

I smiled at him and said, "Uncle, I want to go to the nearby train station, I wonder if you can send me there?"

The uncle smiled and said, "Young man, I have no problem taking you there." However, the distance is a bit far, and although our village is not badly built, there are also many tourists. But after all, it is a village, not a town, nor a county seat. It's still a long way from here to the nearest train station, and it's probably not an hour or two away. But if you insist on going, I can send you there. But the fare is not two hundred yuan, I really can't send you. The cost of fuel alone is more than 100. ”

I see that this uncle is still a real person, if it is more than two hours by car, he really needs this price, and he wants 200 yuan to be considered an affordable price.

I smiled at him and said, "Uncle, I'll give you five hundred, please send me there!"

When the uncle heard this, he smiled and said, "Okay, young man." I'll send you there, let's go!" he started the car.

Although this car is not a luxury car, because the driving skills of the uncle are quite good, I did not feel the slightest bump. Along the way, my uncle told me about his youth.

What I didn't expect was that such a kind uncle turned out to be a veteran. He is in the army, which is the logistics unit of the Air Force. Driving a big truck, this is more than 20 years, which is why his driving skills are so good.

I heard that he was also a veteran, and my conversation box opened.

"Uncle, I studied at a military school, and I graduated early and entered the special forces force. In the past few years of service, it is the time I want to cherish the most in these 30 years. It's a pity that all kinds of trivial things after being discharged from the army made me forget about the army. Now that I think about it, my brothers and comrades-in-arms who were born and died don't know where they are. ”

When the uncle saw me reminiscing about the past, his eyes showed a look of nostalgia, and he immediately explained me: "Young man, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, if you meet your comrades-in-arms by chance, you will find out at that time." Although you haven't been in touch for years, the friendship you had is still there, and it hasn't changed at all. As long as you don't forget them, they won't forget you. What do you say?"

Hearing this, I nodded and said, "Yes, I'm sure I'll see them again." ”

The two of us then chatted a lot, and before we knew it, we had arrived in front of the nearby county train station. After I paid for the car, I said goodbye to my uncle, and walked briskly into the station.

I bought a train ticket to Guizhou and waited in the waiting room. There are not many people in the waiting room, only a few dozen. Maybe it's because it's a small station, or maybe it's not yet the Spring Festival, and there aren't so many people running around.

It's an hour away from the train stop. I sat for a while and decided to go buy something to eat. People are iron, and rice is steel. Even if I can open the valley now, as a person, how can I forget the warmth of food?

After buying a loaf of bread and a carton of milk, I sat down on a chair in the waiting room and ate it. As I ate, I suddenly saw a person. This person was dressed in a green military uniform, with a straight waist and a lofty spirit.

He carried a heavy suitcase in his hand, looked around a few times, and then sat down in the row of chairs across from me. I stared at him a few times, and suddenly my heart shuddered.

I really didn't expect this person I knew, and I used to be so familiar. I stood up, and walked briskly over to him. He heard footsteps and immediately looked at me alertly.

When we looked at each other, we were both thrilled.

"Brother Wen, how could it be you?"

The man stood up abruptly, and then said in surprise.

I listened to this and didn't say anything, but stepped forward and gave him a warm hug.

"Long time no see, old man. Are you okay?"

This man is not someone else, it is my comrade-in-arms back then, my good brother, Zhang Shuo.

"Yes, Brother Wen, we haven't been in touch since you left the army early. I really miss you, but you changed your number and didn't contact us. I thought you had forgotten about us. ”

After we parted, both big men burst into tears. I have truly lived and died with him, experienced danger together, and then saved the day, such memories have been deeply imprinted in our hearts, and we want to forget it, but we will often think of it.

"Zhang Shuo, I have never forgotten you. But you know, it's better for a warrior like us to have less contact. After all, secrecy is the first discipline of our armed forces. ”

Zhang Shuo smiled at me and said, "Brother Wen, I'll tease you." How can we forget about our brothers? By the way, why are you here? What are you doing now?"

I didn't hide anything from him, but I made changes to the matter of going to Dragon Tiger Mountain to seize the treasure.

"Zhang Shuo, I originally traveled to Longhu Mountain. Later, I walked haphazardly, and finally came to this county seat. I'm now inheriting my family's business, so I'm a small boss. What about you? You're out of the army, aren't you?"

Zhang Shuo nodded and smiled: "Yes, I have been discharged from the army for three years." But I don't have a serious job until now, so I originally planned to go to the police station. But after thinking about it, I still felt that I wanted to find an easier job. Whoever thinks about it, looks for it, and in the end it is nothing. Brother Wen, where are you going?"

I immediately responded, "I'm going to Guizhou, what about you?"

"Guizhou, I'm going to Guizhou too, it seems that we are on the same train. Just on the way, everyone can have a good chat and have two drinks by the way. ”

When I heard this, I laughed and said, "That's a good feeling, we must get together." ”

The two of us talked for a while, and the screen at the ticket gate had already reminded us that it was time to check in. After the two of us got on the bus, although it was not in the same carriage, there were many empty seats because there were so few people on the bus.

The two of us picked up an empty seat and sat down, and then happened to run into a mobile vending van.

I spent some money on something to eat and two more bottles of liquor. The two of us immediately began to drink and talk.

I've never tried drinking and chatting on the train, but today I feel very comfortable and comfortable.

"Brother Wen, look, I still broke the bank! Thank you for your hospitality, I toast you. With that, he picked up the glass on the table and toasted me.

Seeing this, I hurriedly raised my wine glass and said with a smile: "Brother, I won't be polite to my brother." Besides, our brothers are happy today, and I will be happy even if I spend 10,000 yuan. Come on, do it!"

After drinking three glasses of liquor in a row, we were all a little dizzy. My alcohol consumption has not improved much, and this Zhang Shuo drank alcohol when he was in the army, and his alcohol consumption is limited compared to mine.

"Brother Wen, what are you doing in Guizhou this time?

I shook my head and smiled: "No, I have something to do when I go to Guizhou." What are you doing in Guizhou?"

Zhang Shuo raised his head and poured another cup, then took a deep breath and said, "I'm going to Guizhou...... Actually, it's going to kill people!"

His voice was not loud, but I heard it very well. Murder? The once arrogant special forces are now going to kill people? Has he forgotten his oath to defend the motherland and the people?

"Brother, are you crazy? Murder? Are you a killer?"

When Zhang Shuo heard this, tears suddenly fell, and then he covered his face and cried "woo". I think that even if we were pierced by bullets, we would never say a word, but now he is crying.

"What the hell is going on? If you still recognize me as the old squad leader, then sue me. ”

Zhang Shuo hesitated for a moment, then calmed down.

"Brother Wen, my wife was killed. I want to avenge him! But the murderer is not a righteous person, and I thought about calling the police, but I couldn't find the slightest evidence. I knew who the killer was, but I couldn't do anything about it. So, I'm going to do it myself, I'm going to kill the man. ”

I thought about it, and then asked, "Who is your murderer?"

Zhang Shuo nodded and said, "That's right, he is a Taoist priest who claims to be a real person!"

When I heard this, I shuddered, it was him? Is it really him?
