157. The peaks and troughs of life are just small ups and downs in life.
The driver suddenly spoke
"Are you unhappy?"
Li Xiao raised his head and met the driver's eyes in the reversing mirror without speaking.
"It must be hard, right?"
Seeing that Li Xiao didn't speak, the driver sighed and spoke again.
"Yes, it's very uncomfortable."
Li Xiao hesitated for half a second and said.
"People are always like this, alive or dead, sad or happy."
"Things will eventually pass. You may still be young, so you may feel that everything is very heavy."
"Actually, life is like a fixed investment fund."
"Those places that look like lows, those places that look like peaks."
"It's all just short-term, tops and bottoms."
"You extend the time to 3 years, but you can't extend it to 5 years."
"You'll find out, oh, it turns out it's just that."
"Suffering from a serious illness, failing the exam, and being rejected by my confession"
"Get first place, meet your first love, break records"
"These things that seemed important at the time, as long as enough time passes, you will find that they are nothing more than that."
"No more than that?"
Li Xiao raised his head and looked at the driver with a smile again.
The driver suddenly said
"By the way, there is a section of closed mountain road ahead. It was built by the Hangzhou City Racing Association. If you are not in a hurry, how about taking you to go racing for a section?"
[This is a closed road section for professionals, non-professionals please do not imitate]
???
Li Xiao looked confused. He didn't quite understand what his unhappiness and loss had to do with racing.
(With music, the reading environment is better, [Don’t listen to slow songs when you are sad])
The driver kept his right hand on the gear, beating the beat and humming:
"So you listen to slow songs, very slow, very slow songs"
“It felt like my heart was cut by a knife”
"Should we change our rhythm?"
"OH~"
“Stop asking who is right and who is wrong”
“Who is right and who is wrong and who owes whom?”
....
"Don't listen to slow songs when you are sad"
"Life is divided and combined, and love is tugging and tugging."
"The journey is full of twists and turns"
“I’m still looking forward to the new scenery tomorrow”
...
The driver came from the mouth of a song that Li Xiao had never heard before, but it was very rhythmic.
The magnetic voice of a middle-aged man coupled with a strong rhythm.
Even though he knew nothing about music, he thought this song was very nice.
"How's it going? Let's go, we're almost at the intersection."
"Once you miss it, you can't go back. It's a one-way street here."
"There's nowhere to turn around in front."
With the driver's song still lingering in his ears, Li Xiao glanced at his cell phone, which no longer lit up, and nodded.
The driver smiled, as if he had already anticipated Li Xiao's choice.
"Then you have to sit tight. My speed is the fastest on Lingyin Mountain."
As he said that, his right hand, which was originally on the gear, quickly pressed a few times on the radio panel.
Li Xiao looked a little stunned when he saw the driver's actions.
He has seen this scene quite a few times. What kind of hidden mode is this trying to activate?
Are there suddenly seven or eight more exhaust pipes, or is the front of the car becoming more streamlined, or is it?
Before he could think about it for long, the original radio station was turned off, and a song with a very familiar rhythm was played on the speaker.
???
Li Xiao
The driver breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw that his favorite song had finally been replaced. Seeing Li Xiao's surprised look, he quickly explained
"The buttons on this crappy radio keep malfunctioning. After all, it's an old car that's more than 20 years old."
After listening to the driver's words, Li Xiao immediately took several breaths of cold air, causing the temperature inside the car to rise several degrees.
Feeling an increasingly strong push against my back, I looked at the locked car door.
With my small body, if I jump out of the car now, I am afraid that I will die or not.
He's not some deadpool trapped in the camp, so he can't escape a narrow escape, right?
He swallowed and quickly put on his seat belt shivering.
Seeing Li Xiao's appearance, the driver laughed.
"Brother, don't worry, my car is very stable."
After he finished speaking, his right hand shifted into gear again, and the speed of the car immediately surged from 80 to 100!!!
Seeing the numbers on the dashboard, Li Xiao's previous sadness, depression, and regret were all gone.
In the face of life and death, everything is just a cloud.
After all, on a mountain road like Lingyin Mountain with nine twists and turns, not to mention driving at 80, those who can drive at 60 are all experienced drivers.
And, most importantly, the rain outside is starting to lighten up now.
However, no matter how light the rain is, the roadside is still slippery, and the visibility is inherently bad on rainy days.
Li Xiao put his head around and looked at the scene in front of the windshield from between the driver's seat and the passenger seat, breaking into a cold sweat.
Is the visibility 30 meters?
He wasn't sure because he hadn't touched a car since taking the driver's license test in college, and he couldn't judge the distance with the naked eye.
He trembled his lips and closed his eyes.
My mind went blank. There was no Jiang Yingxue, no help, no death, no regret.
【Please, don’t let anything happen!】
Seeing Li Xiao frightened like a quail, the driver's laughter became more and more unbridled, and the music on the stereo was turned up louder at some point.
...
"I don't care, I don't care anymore, I don't care about this and this moment."
"Have to implement happiness"
"Don't worry about it, don't wait, don't be unhappy."
"Don't listen to slow songs when you are sad"
.....
Li Xiao listened to the deafening sound and felt the vibrations coming from the car suddenly became lighter. He opened his eyes nervously.
What's going on? He was a little confused.
Seeing him open his eyes, the driver explained,
"We're on our way!"
!!!
Li Xiao's eyes widened, "Go on the road?! What road to go on!"
He swallowed unconsciously.
"Go to the asphalt road. It's such a good track, but it would be a waste not to go to the asphalt road."
After listening to the driver's explanation, Li Xiao felt that his heartbeat, which had almost stopped, showed signs of recovery.
It turns out we were on an asphalt road, right? This guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes was breathing heavily when he spoke. Isn’t this trying to scare people to death?
Just when he was complaining about the driver's heavy breathing, the driver spoke again
"Are you not so unhappy anymore?"
???
Li Xiao was stunned for a moment. It seemed that he was indeed not so sad anymore?
The rhythmic music in your ears, the push on your back caused by high speed, and the black seat belt bring a sense of pulling and security when cornering.
The front of the car is constantly shifting, and the center of gravity is constantly shifting.
The beat of the music, the rhythm of the lyrics.
Actually, it does have such a hearty feeling.
"Whenever I'm unhappy, I just come here and float around. After I'm done, my whole unhappiness will be left behind."
"Because as long as I drive fast enough, you can't catch me if you're not happy."
"How's it going? It feels good."
Li Xiao tightly grasped the handle of the car roof, the fear on his face lessened.
Because he really felt that the driver's driving skills seemed to have really improved a lot.
There is no longer that strange sense of frustration in the city. It is like suddenly transforming from a driver who just got his license into a professional racing driver.
However, before he could completely let go, the driver's voice came
"I don't know how many times I have driven this road. I can drive it all the way with my eyes closed."
As he said this, he really closed his eyes. Li Xiao was so frightened that he almost jumped out of the taxi that was traveling at 110 kilometers per hour.
However, the driver opened his eyes half a second later.
With a happy smile on his face,
"Haha, just kidding, just kidding, if my co-pilot has a navigator, I can actually perform a little bit, but forget it, it's all over..."
The driver's smile faded slightly, as if he remembered something he didn't want to mention or recall.
But soon, a smile appeared on his face again,
"Here we come, be prepared to turn."
Cornering???
"Didn't we go through several turns just now?"
Li Xiao's right hand was holding on to the handle of the car's roof, and the fingers of his left hand pointed at the curve that could still be vaguely seen behind.
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror doubtfully and said with a smile.
"You call that kind of curve?"
???
Li Xiao's eyes widened and he didn't quite understand what that kind of thing is called a curve. Please, that...
His thinking came to a standstill in an instant!!!!
!!!!
????
His mind was instantly occupied by question marks and exclamation marks.
He finally understood what that kind of thing is called a curve!!!
Li Xiao felt that all the 36,500 hairs on his body were standing on end, and his heart rate suddenly stopped from 100 beats per minute.
A curve that exceeds a right angle appears in front of the windshield.
Seeing this curve with no road in sight, the first thought in Li Xiao's mind was, I'm still a fucking virgin, and the second thought was grass!!! A kind of plant!!!
The driver had no intention of slowing down at all, and the movements of his hands were as solid as a rock. He didn't even change the movements of his face. At some point, he had an unlit cigarette in his mouth.
Hold the steering wheel with one hand, and constantly change the gear with the other hand.
Huge centrifugal force came, and Li Xiao felt that the car body was quickly thrown to the side. The speed stopped for a moment, and then he was lifted up again.
The huge centrifugal force stopped quickly, and when Li Xiao came back to his senses.
The black and white AE86 has used a simple sideways movement to negotiate this more than 90-degree bend.
This was still with almost no deceleration. Li Xiao swallowed, knowing that he really met a master this time.
The driver bit the unlit cigarette and said with a smile
"Is that okay? Uncle, do you want me to slow down a little?"
???
Ok???
Li Xiao narrowed his eyes and exuded a dangerous aura.
Good guy, is this a slap in the face?
"It's not whether I can do it, it's whether you can do it. Uncle, this is too slow! It's not like I don't have the strength to step on the accelerator."
The overly stimulating sensory experience made Li Xiao's mind go blank.
He subconsciously blurted out the retort, but the moment the words came out of his mouth, his claws went numb.
Damn it, what the hell did you say with your foul mouth?
You are so scared that you are still trying to show off? Let me go! Do you really want to die?
Hearing Li Xiao's reply, the driver laughed.
"Okay, okay, as long as you like it. I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it, so I'm going to take it seriously!"
Li Xiao trembled her lips and glanced at the dashboard of the car.
He wanted to swallow another mouthful of saliva to relieve the fear in his heart.
However, he found that his throat was dry and his tongue and mouth could no longer squeeze out any liquid.
The speed of 115 kilometers per hour is not serious?
Brother, don't scare me, where is your true character?
125? Or 135?
If it weren't for the fact that the driver was holding the steering wheel and the smell coming out of the driver's body, he would have believed him if he said he was a murderer with a chainsaw.
Wait, who said that a taxi driver can't be a chainsaw murderer?
The codenames of terrifying murderers appeared in Li Xiaokong's mind one after another.
Faces that were either gentle, silent, or lifeless appeared in front of his retina.
In the end, all these various faces were like a slideshow, quickly passing by, and then converging on the driver's calm but crazy profile.
Originally, the ordinary face, the eyebrows that were neither thick nor thin, the facial contour that was neither square nor round, the eyes that were neither big nor small, the nose that was neither straight nor sunken, all looked like those of murderers.
facial features.
No way, no way.
Nowadays, third-rate novels don’t dare to write like this. How can I encounter a murderer just by taking a bus?
Do you want to knock yourself unconscious, and then do whatever you want while you are unable to resist? Then throw your body into the wilderness?
Although this is a bit nonsense, logically speaking, it is not impossible!
He quickly cheered up and secretly took out his mobile phone. He felt that his vision went dark. Oh no, there was no signal.
Various shocking news headlines flashed by quickly.
【Deep mountains...】
【....Unable to call for help....】
【Killing!....】
【Bloody Driver....】
It was so bad that I couldn't even call the police. It looked like I was going to die without any body parts.
See the despair, fear and panic on Li Xiao's face.
The driver's face was no longer calm. He didn't know what Li Xiao was thinking about. In short, it must be something weird.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing? If you're afraid, just say..."
Li Xiao didn't dare to continue the argument and nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice.
"Afraid, afraid, afraid, brother, don't kill me. I have an eighty-year-old mother to support. The most important thing is that I don't even have a girlfriend..."
As he spoke, he was about to cry.
The cigarette in the driver's mouth almost fell out. He glanced at Li Xiao in the rearview mirror with a constipated look on his face. He thought Li Xiao felt that the speed was too fast and was scared. Who knows...
"You are really a genius. You have such rich associations. Why don't you write a novel? It's such a fucking waste."
"Brother, I took your order from the platform. Our itineraries are all recorded. Even if I am a murderer, I am not that stupid!"
"What I'm asking is, do you feel scared because the speed is too fast!!!"
!!!
Li Xiao, who felt a little needy to urinate, suddenly froze after hearing what the driver said. His body stopped shaking and he no longer had the urge to urinate. Yes, he called Didi.
The probe took a look and saw the driver's ID card in front of the co-pilot.
Fujiwara-Taku?, the last word happened to be stained with water, and the black ink was blurred, making it impossible to distinguish what word it was.
However, after seeing the photo and name above, Li Xiao already let out a long breath.
He did remember that Didi’s driver just now was named Fujiwara Taku.
It seems that it should be possible that he is not a murderer?
He spoke timidly, like a weak, helpless little pitiful person surrounded by dozens of big men.
"Brother, you are really not a murderer."
The driver's hand holding the steering wheel shook. What on earth are people thinking about right now?
He was holding the steering wheel and wanted to rub his twitching temples, but he immediately thought that he was driving with one hand and quickly stopped.
"There aren't that many perverted drivers, and I'm not a perverted murderer."
"Okay, shut up. The real guy is coming next. Sit tight and do five hairpin turns in a row."
"After passing this bend, we will reach the top of the mountain. The weather is good today and the starry sky must be beautiful."
The rain was pouring down, but I don’t know when it stopped.
The sound of rain outside the car window was just the sound of dripping water coming from the trees and bamboo groves on the roadside.
The winter evening came very early, but the sky turned completely dark at 6 o'clock, which made Li Xiao think that there were still dark clouds outside, but it turned out that it had already stopped raining and the sky was clear.
Because it rained, the sky became extra bright.
It seemed that even the stars in the sky were a little brighter, and the big and round moon also hung in the sky.
However, more than half an hour has passed without realizing it.
There is still no signal on the mobile phone. It seems that the economic situation of this racing association is not good. Otherwise, why wouldn't it even build a mobile phone base station?
In his wild thoughts, the extremely clean and pure scenery outside the window made Li Xiao's previous nervousness and fear seem to disappear?!!!
Just when he was looking at the scenery outside the window, AE86 made a beautiful flick, and Li Xiao moved sideways to the other side.
Fortunately, his left hand was still holding the handle of the roof, otherwise the small seat belt might not be able to withstand such an impact.
However, such impact is continuous, and five curves exceeding 110 degrees are specially designed together.
Five consecutive large swings of the tail almost knocked Li Xiao, who was not very strong, at the critical moment. However, at the critical moment, several basic attributes rewarded by the system played a huge role.
His quick recovery allowed him to quickly recover from his dizziness.
Driver Fujiwara was a little surprised to see Li Xiao sober up so quickly.
"Hey, young man, you are in good health."
Li Xiao patted his chest with one hand and said to the driver
"Uncle, can't you give me a warning before turning?"
The driver laughed
"If you remind me, it won't be so interesting, right?"
"Just like life, if you knew what would happen in the future, wouldn't it be boring?"
"The unknown life has its charm."
As he spoke, his vision went dark. Although the two headlights in front of the AE86 were very bright and white, they were incomparable to street lights.
AE86 drove into a tunnel, and the speed, which had been maintained at 120, quietly dropped.
Feeling the push on his back from behind, Li Xiao felt that all the muscles in his body were quietly relaxing.
He slowly released his left hand that had been holding the roof handle tightly.
The tunnel was not long, and soon Li Xiao felt that his eyes were empty, and the AE86 had already exited the tunnel.
A clear sky appeared in front of the windshield, and outside the tunnel was a platform, a very large platform on the top of the mountain.
The speed of AE86 slows down again until it stops.
Driver Fujiwara unbuckled his seat belt and said to Li Xiao with a smile
"Let's go out for a walk, the scenery here is very good!"
Li Xiao was stunned for a second, then a smile appeared on his face, he unbuckled his seat belt and opened the door.
What hits my face outside the door is the fresh air after the rain.
In the bright and quiet sky above, the sky is full of stars.
Li Xiao didn't even know how long it had been since he had seen such a bright starry sky.
He couldn't hold it back and took a deep breath subconsciously.
Some cool and moist air is sucked into the body.
Suddenly, there was a vibration. When I looked down, my phone lit up.
