I asked the taxi driver: "Uncle, you mean the road to Xiangyuan is haunted, so that's why your taxi refuses to take people to Xiangyuan at night?"
The taxi driver nodded and said: "Isn't that right? Everyone says so. Not only taxis don't dare to go to Xiangyuan at night, but also ordinary private cars and even trucks will not go to Xiangyuan at night. There are already twenty
Many trains had accidents.”
"Are all the drivers dead?" Dongzi asked.
"No driver or passenger is spared. Now the road to Xiangyuan is the road to death at night. No one dares to go there!"
The driver shook his head and said, "So now when everyone hears about going to Xiangyuan, no matter how much money they give, they won't go. No matter how much money is given, it will be useless."
"There were so many car accidents on that road, and the authorities didn't check it?" Dongzi asked.
"Check? How to check? Last time a police car passed by at night, there was an accident. Now they are checking during the day, but nothing happened during the day. What can they find out?" The driver waved his hand and said.
"Master, in fact, we are both psychics from Jiangzhou. To be honest, we are rushing to Xiangyuan now because of saving people. Can you send us there? Don't worry, we will definitely guarantee
Your safety will not let anything happen to you." I thought about it and said to the driver.
"Are you psychics?"
The driver looked at Dongzi and I up and down, and asked with some confusion: "You two don't look very old, right?"
"Uncle, look at what you said, can't you be a psychic at a young age? We both have real abilities." Dongzi said.
The driver chuckled twice and said: "There was a psychic some time ago. He also said that he was very capable and that he was much older than you two. He also died on that road in the end.
Also some time ago, I paid a lot of money to have a famous master look at my son's illness. After looking at it, I said I wanted to go to that road to have a look. I went there during the day. When I got back, the doctor would give me a full refund.
He gave it to me, saying that he had nothing to do with it, and asked us to prepare for his son’s funeral!”
Having said this, the driver became a little excited and his body was trembling slightly. He turned his head and took out a crumpled cigarette case from his body. With a shake, he took out one, lit it and took a deep puff.
After blowing out a puff of thick smoke, the driver turned to look at me and Dongzi and said, "How about you follow me to the hospital to see my son? As long as you can guarantee to save my son, I will take you to Xiangyuan right away."
"Uncle, we really don't have time to accompany you to see your son now. How about you send us to Xiangyuan first, and then we'll take care of our affairs. I'll come over again. If your son is indeed deficient,
, we will try our best to save your son when the time comes." I said thoughtfully.
"That won't work!"
The driver shook his head and said: "The master I asked for last time said that my son's days are numbered. As long as you can save my son, I will go. Even if I exchange my life for my son's life, it is worth it, but if you
If I can't save my son first, I will have to keep my life to raise my grandson!"
Dongzi lightly poked my arm and said: "Hu Ling, why don't we go to the hospital for a checkup first? It won't take long anyway. After that, let the uncle send us there, otherwise we won't be able to get there tonight.
Xiangyuan, you will waste one more night."
I was a little hesitant. Lu Xiaohong didn't have much time. If we accompanied the driver's uncle to the hospital first, we would indeed be able to reach Xiangyuan tonight.
But we must keep what we promise. If the driver's son's situation is complicated, even if we find Granny Epiphyllum, we still have to spend time rescuing the driver's son, which will waste a lot of unnecessary time.
If it were in the past, if I encountered such a thing, I would definitely not ignore it, but now Lu Xiaohong's situation cannot be delayed at all.
I didn't answer Dongzi's words and looked out the car window in embarrassment.
At this time, I found an Internet cafe on the roadside and a row of motorcycles parked in front of the Internet cafe.
An idea suddenly occurred to me.
"Uncle, we are in a hurry to save someone's life. We really don't have time to go to the hospital to see your child. Why don't you leave us a contact number. After our matter is settled, if you haven't found another
Let's help you deal with your son's affairs. Can we come over again and help you solve your son's problems then?" I said, looking at the driver.
"Are you really sure of saving my son by then?" The driver's eyes lit up when he saw what we said.
"To be honest, we don't know exactly what happened on that road now, so we don't have a certain certainty at the moment, but as long as we go to Xiangyuan today, we should be able to know what the problem is on that road."
I explained to the uncle: "Since that road is as dangerous as you said, we can't force you to send us there. Let's find another way to go there by ourselves! If you can trust us, just leave me a phone number."
"
"I don't want to send you there today, but you are willing to save my son?" the driver asked me, looking at me in disbelief.
"It is fate between us that we can meet you, but our time is really urgent, otherwise I will definitely help you."
I said apologetically: "And I can understand why you don't want to send us there. After our affairs are settled, as long as you call us, I will definitely come over to help you."
As I said that, I took out a business card from my backpack, handed it to the driver, opened the door and got out of the car.
When Dongzi saw me getting out of the car, she followed me.
"Hu Ling, what should we do now? We will definitely not be able to find a car in this situation." Dongzi asked me.
"Can you ride a motorcycle?" I asked Dongzi.
"Ah? Who doesn't know how to ride a motorcycle? I learned to ride a motorcycle when I was sixteen years old." Dongzi was stunned, with a face full of confusion, and didn't understand why I asked him this.
"Then let's ride motorcycles to Xiangyuan. I've seen it on the map. It's actually not very far from Nanshi to Xiangyuan. It's only about two hundred kilometers away. It's not even ten o'clock yet. If we go faster, it will take about an hour.
We can arrive at Xiangyuan at two o'clock."
I said and walked towards the Internet cafe.
"But, where are we going to find motorcycles now?" Dongzi asked, following me.
Seeing me walking to the row of motorcycles parked outside the Internet cafe and stopping there, Dongzi asked me in surprise with a trembling voice: "Hu Ling, you, you're not getting confused and planning to steal someone else's motorcycle, are you?"
"What are you thinking about?" I glared at Dongzi and said, "Why do you want to steal it? Can't you find someone to buy it?"
