The national treasure said that Santaihezi is the only way for us to pass. A few of us were a little nervous. This has nothing to do with being superstitious or not. I believe that anyone who encounters such a place will avoid it. So we discussed it and decided
Let’s rest after leaving Santaihezi. In fact, I originally wanted to visit Santaihezi. It was probably a more important place on the transportation line back then. I wanted to try to find something. But I couldn’t.
What Ai Guobao said was indeed scary, and I didn’t want to drag others down, so I gave up the idea.
The sky is dark, but driving in a place like this is indeed a different kind of enjoyment. Driving makes people feel wild and unrestrained. The car responsible for logistics is just carrying fuel, so the speed cannot be particularly fast. The national treasure is sitting at the head
On a car, I looked around. After a while, he turned to me and said, Santaihezi is just ahead.
No one can settle in this kind of place all year round, but the budget for the Xihai River project back then was very large. As a transfer station, Santaihezi was relatively large in scale. But we arrived more than ten years late. Before the engineering staff
During the evacuation, Santaihezi was also completely destroyed. All the buildings on the ground were destroyed, and the ruins were covered up layer by layer by years of wind and sand. Today, they have become bulging sandbags on the ground.
"Damn, it's so sinister." Zhang Qiao shrank his neck next to me.
I don’t know if it was for psychological reasons, but even though the car windows were all closed, the closer I got to those sandbags, I felt a cold air coming in through the cracks in the car windows, which made me want to shiver.
"Hurry over." Zhang Qiao said to the driver from behind: "The sandbags are like graveyards. If the car breaks down at this time, it will be in trouble..."
Before I finished speaking, the logistics vehicle behind me started to shake a bit and was forced to stop. We had no choice but to follow suit. Several people came down to take a look and found that there was something wrong with the logistics vehicle. We don’t know exactly where it is yet.
Something was wrong, but the car must have broken down. The national treasure and the driver looked at Zhang Qiao strangely, saying that he was the reincarnation of a broom star.
In a place like this, without logistical support, it would be almost impossible to move forward. We were forced to stop. The driver got together to work on the car, checked it for a while, and said that the axle was broken.
"Can we still walk?" Xiaoning frowned. This was his habitual action. The logistics vehicle broke down halfway, which was indeed a headache.
"It can only be said that we are unlucky." The driver was helpless. Before they arrived, in order to ensure a smooth journey, he specially replaced some parts of the car, but the new axle that had just been replaced was broken. Fortunately, the replacement
The old parts that came off are still there. If they are replaced now, the car can continue to drive.
While the driver was busy, we sat in another car. Xiaoning took out the route map given by Uncle Lai and asked us to take the opportunity to familiarize ourselves with it. No map is easy to use with the brain. The map printed in the mind is the best.
It is always valid and will not be lost. As I watched, Zhang Qiao felt sleepy. I patted him awake. Now is not the time to sleep.
But Ya had too many problems. She had to wake up and she wanted to be convenient. She opened the car door and squatted down to unbutton her pants. Xiaoning kicked her from behind and she fell to the ground.
"Stay away."
"There are no women, what's the point of a bunch of men!" Zhang Qiao was kicked suddenly and became anxious. He picked up his pants and got up to retort. However, he was beaten by Xiaoning. Xiaoning pulled the car door and Zhang Qiao pulled the car door.
Qiao picked up his pants and ran away.
Looking at Zhang Qiao's back running away, Xiaoning glanced at me silently: "If you take him with you, you will get into trouble sooner or later. Do you believe it or not?"
"There's nothing I can do about it, he's just a bit big-headed, and sometimes his brain goes crazy, but he's actually a pretty good person."
"Don't try to flatter him, you are no better than him."
"Comrade, your position is unacceptable." I was talking nonsense with him. Anyway, I was idle. Bickering can also ease the tense atmosphere. To be honest, Santaihezi is a place like this, especially close to the ruins of the logistics transfer station.
This area does have a spooky atmosphere.
"Forget it, forget it, I still have to tell you some things to pay attention to, Zheng Tong, I don't want you to take any chances. Something happened in the Kongque River, and there was a near miss in the end. But the Xihai River is different."
Xiaoning and I were talking, while Ai Guobao was napping in the passenger seat in front. I have to admit that although Xiaoning is not much different from me in age, he knows a lot, and his knowledge in many aspects is beyond my reach.
Moreover, he was very good at giving lectures, and every question he asked was quite attractive. After listening for a while, I became invested and would ask questions to discuss with him.
"Stop it first." The national treasure turned his head in front and interrupted us: "Did that guy go to poop or have his intestines? Why hasn't he come back for so long?"
"It should be fine." I glanced out the car window and saw Zhang Qiao's flashlight was still shining in the distance. I thought his abnormal diet these days caused him to be constipated.
Guobao didn't say anything anymore. He turned around and muttered. This kind of person is many times more vigilant than me. If there was anything abnormal, he would notice it. Next, Xiaoning also felt something was wrong, and he used
The walkie-talkie contacted Zhang Qiao but did not receive any reply.
"Let's go and have a look." Guobao opened the car door and we all followed. The flashlight light was motionless in the distance. Now, even I felt something strange.
The few of us quickened our pace, and before we were really close to the flashlight light, I saw that no one was there. Zhang Qiao only left the flashlight in the convenient place just now, but no one was there.
"Where is the person?" I looked at Xiaoning as if asking for help.
"He didn't come back in the direction he went." Xiao Ning took a look around and said, "The only possibility is that he went to the left, right or straight ahead. Let's look for him separately."
Only the flashlight was left at the scene, without any other traces, and the situation could not be analyzed. There were not many of us, so we could only divide into two groups, Pang Bin and Xiaoning, and Guobao and I, each making a circle from the left and right.
This way the search would have a more comprehensive perspective. After running with the national treasure for a while, I saw undulating sandbags not far ahead. The sinister atmosphere was pervasive and enveloped me in an instant.
"National treasure, who captured Zhang Qiao?"
"I don't know." Ai Guobao didn't look back. At this moment, his expression and behavior completely changed. When nothing happened, he was like a talkative idle guy, but when something happened, Guobao was like a
The sharp arrow on the bowstring, especially those eyes, are extremely sharp.
The distance between us, Xiaoning and Pang Bin became farther and farther, and in the end we could hardly see each other. Guobao and I also gradually approached the undulating group of sandbags.
"Where can I find this?" I felt dizzy when I saw the sandbags one after another. There was something strange in the gloomy atmosphere.
"Slow down, slow down..." The national treasure suddenly slowed down. He lowered his head and looked back and forth on the ground. Following his gaze, I saw a line of footprints. But there were only some footprints, and I couldn't see anything.
The national treasure knelt down and looked at several of the footprints, thought about it, and said to me in a low voice: "The footprints belong to the same person, only one person."
"Is it Zhang Qiao?"
"I'm kidding, can you tell whose footprints it is?" Guobao touched his chin and said, "Size 42 shoes, between 1.72 and 1.75 meters, weighing about 150 pounds, it should be a man."
I really didn't know that I could tell so much information from one footprint. Based on the numbers analyzed by National Treasure, I think that is Zhang Qiao's height and physique.
What is he doing here in the sand alone and silently? This is too abnormal.
"The footprints are not broken, follow!" Guobao made a decision immediately and immediately followed the footprints forward.
The footprints became fainter and fainter, and in the end they were almost invisible. However, where the footprints finally faded, there was a large excavation mark, as if a giant prairie dog had burrowed here. Layer by layer
The layers of floating sand were dug away, revealing several sections of the wall.
The building under the sand layer was destroyed by bombing, but the gap between the broken walls looks very artistic. It is a very round hole. From a visual inspection, it is just enough for a person to get through.
The footprints disappeared here, which means that the owner of the footprints got in from here. I am very puzzled that Zhang Qiao does not know as much about this matter as I do. As for Santaihezi, it is also his first time, why did he
Want to break away from the team and run here without permission?
"Go in and look for him." I looked at the round hole under the broken wall and said to myself that no matter what, Zhang Qiao could not be left here, even though the things he did sometimes made people speechless.
