Li Fusheng's cold and emotionless gaze only lasted for a moment, and I felt that he seemed to have a very bad impression of shadow creatures. Then, we also found a place to rest, and inhaled so much powder that I fell into a continuous slight dizziness.
, under the protection of the two of them, I barely slept for two hours.
There is no need to search any further in the Tiankeng. My original intention was just to look for my dad or find some clues about his whereabouts. I didn’t expect so many things to happen. After I woke up, the three of us followed the original plan.
The road climbed back. When we climbed back to the plank road, Zheng Shitou was still hiding there, shrinking into a ball.
Nothing happened in the meantime. We returned to the old village, took the remaining equipment from Zheng Shitou's house, and left immediately. When I walked to the hilltop near the old village, I looked back and looked at it, feeling in my heart
There was a feeling that I had never had before. At that moment, I believed that I felt what my dad felt when he left here. Many things in the world have cause and effect. When I first came to the old village, I was taken to Zheng Shitou’s house.
The child in white clothes on the big tree at the door was quite frightened, but now that I think about it, it was not without reason. Zheng Chuyi did not look for anyone else, but only looked for me, maybe because he could feel that I
Are they descendants of the Zheng family?
After leaving the old village, on the way back, Li Fusheng asked me if there was any place like Shiyanchuan, which was relatively remote and had both deep pits and cursed original carriers. I thought about it, and as far as I was concerned,
As you know, only the ancient tomb on the south bank of the old Kongque River remains.
"That place sounds good, but it will be slower and a bit troublesome when we move things. Let's go and have a look first." Li Fusheng said, "Let's put aside other things for now and solve the curse before we talk about it."
When I got to a place with a mobile phone signal, I turned it on as a habit. After being away from normal life for so long, there were a lot less calls. But this time when I turned it on, I saw a call from Jin Pingmei. It was about a week ago. A total of
He called three times. I called back, but his phone was turned off. I don’t know what kind of state this guy is in now. I didn’t turn off the phone and wanted to wait for his call.
This wait lasted three or four days. Although I wanted to contact him right away, I couldn't delay other things just because I was waiting for his call. So after three or four days, we started heading northwest.
Halfway through the train, Jin Ping Mei actually called. I felt it was inconvenient to speak, so I quickly ran to the bathroom on the train, locked the door, and started talking to him.
Jin Pingmei was similar to Li Fusheng most of the time. I couldn't tell anything from his tone. When he asked me where I had been during this time, I said I had no place to stay and went back to my hometown.
"That's good, don't run around casually." Jin Pingmei was silent for a moment, and then said: "For you now, patience is victory. As long as you have enough patience, all those who are unfavorable to you will not be able to threaten you.
Someone will take care of them."
"What about you? Where are you now?"
"I haven't finished my work yet, it will probably take a while. Lao Zhao and Duoji are both good, please ask me to say hello to you."
It would be fine if Jin Ping Mei was not mentioned at all, but when he mentioned Lao Zhao Duoji, amidst the rumble of the train, I couldn't help but think of the days when I ran around with them in the past, and suddenly I felt a lot more emotional.
. Those people who should have been reliable did not rely on me in the end. Instead, they were strangers whom I had known for a short time. They gave me courage and help, allowing me to persevere all the way until now. Thinking of Zhao Yingjun’s beard, and Lao Duoji’s old man.
His naughty smile made my eyes feel sore.
"Just hide, remember my words, be patient, be patient." Jin Pingmei said: "If there is any inconvenience, you are short of money, or something happens, you can contact the monk or Shisan, he will try his best to help you
.”
"What about you?" I rubbed my eyes.
"I guess it will take some time to finish my work, don't worry." Jin Pingmei said and was about to hang up: "I have something to do here, so I can't say more. Take care of yourself."
"You wait first..."
"There will be another chance to talk about it in the future." Jin Pingmei interrupted me and said: "You must keep my words in mind. You must know what I say and do what I say. If there is any big trouble again, then..."
"What then?"
"Then no one can protect you anymore, remember."
After saying that, Jin Pingmei didn't wait for me to ask again, and immediately hung up the phone. When I called back, he had turned off his phone. I thought about it for a while and felt that Jin Pingmei's tone of voice had not changed, but his way of speaking was a bit different from before.
Same. I returned to my seat and whispered to Li Fusheng. In fact, I also have a subconscious trust in Jin Pingmei. I don’t think he will cheat me. Since he gave the warning very seriously, it means that
The danger must exist.
"From what you said, why do I feel that he is not so free anymore?" Li Fusheng said: "If you think about it, he is also cursed. If he wants to take action, he must first find a way to lift the curse.
, but he has contacted you twice, and he has not mentioned this at all. I think, with his strength, after such a long time, even if he cannot find a way to completely remove the curse, there should be some gains, you are
If a person on the same line has relevant information, he won't say a word to you, right?"
I felt a little strange in my heart. After Li Fusheng made this analysis, a thought immediately came to my mind: "You mean, he actually didn't do anything during this time?"
"I suspect that he is no longer free. At least his movements are restricted."
"Yes." I nodded. Jin Pingmei's daughter had just been born, and this guy loved her so much that he wouldn't have even returned home if he had not been forced to do so. But as Li Fusheng said, he was not
Without any freedom, at least you can still call me: "What should we do? Completely ignore his warning?"
"No, we must face his warning, but we must continue to do what we need to do. At the very least, our curse must be lifted." Li Fusheng looked at the scenery passing by outside the car window and said, "As for what happens after the curse is lifted.
, you will be free."
We need to go to the south bank of the Kongque River to investigate first. The Gobi in this season is a completely lifeless world. If you stay here for a long time, people will even feel a kind of faint despair. Travel friends who usually travel here still have a feeling of despair.
There are some, so there are some local people who specialize in this business. We contacted them in advance, but found that the people who usually take travel companions on this route are not planning to take the job for the time being.
When encountering such a situation, we must ask the reason. The person we found this time is named Bei. He is a Han Chinese, about forty years old. He has been here for twenty years and is very fierce-looking. Anyway, this kind of person is not too clean.
, I will accept any job as long as I can make money.
"Some time ago, people who took this route always had inexplicable accidents." Old Bei put his feet in leather boots on the table and said, "The people below are unwilling to go, and there is nothing I can do about it."
"What happened?"
In the past, this line was actually very normal. Some people who were interested in the ancient country of Loulan would come here from time to time. Lao Bei and his friends ran it at least a hundred times, and there was never any accident. But some time ago
In the beginning, there was always a small incident. Either the tire of the car ran out of air overnight, or the fuel supply on the car disappeared, and it could not go on until it was close to the destination. People like Lao Bei usually don't
Even if he doesn't steal, he still has the heart to guard against the police, so he is more vigilant. He thinks that these inexplicable things are not unreasonable, but he just can't find a reason, so he immediately gives his business to
It’s compressed. Speaking of which, you can earn a little money by being a travel guide, but not too much. This is just a side job for Lao Bei and the others, so it doesn’t matter if you don’t do it.
"It's been about two months. A few people came from the south." Old Bei showed his smoke-yellow teeth and said, "They came to me and asked for a guide. I said no, and they came.
Show off."
I guess it was because Lao Bei's attitude was not very good at that time and he looked down upon these southerners. The other party was immediately unhappy. Maybe they were indeed rich and kept raising prices as if they were competing with Lao Bei. In fact, it was not Lao Bei who was the guide.
If he doesn't want to do this, he can definitely find someone else to do it, but in the end, these southerners are no longer serious about talking about things, but want to use money to get Lao Bei to nod and earn face for themselves.
Lao Bei would not be troubled by money. When a few southerners blushed and became thick-necked, he immediately nodded and agreed, collected the money, and finally sent a stupid young man to them to take these southerners on their way.
.Before setting off, Lao Bei secretly told Leng Tou Qing that if something happened on the way, he should leave others alone and run away first.
"Aren't you too unprofessional?"
"Special circumstances, special treatment." Old Bei smiled like a fox and said, "Aren't they rich enough to build it in the Gobi Desert?"
That stupid young man didn't have much thought and didn't care about anything. He just rushed towards the destination with his people. I wonder if he was lucky. After walking for a long time, nothing happened until he almost arrived at the destination.
Several southerners scolded Lao Bei, saying that he was exaggerating and extorting money from them. They also said that they would go back and find someone to deal with Lao Bei.
But on the night they were talking, several people encountered something strange. The weather was not very cold at that time, so several people did not set up a tent and slept directly in the car. When they woke up, they discovered the scenery outside the car window.
, the scene was completely different from the scene before going to bed last night.
