I returned to Yinchuan the next night. In addition to the long-distance fare, I gave the driver Lao Wang an extra thousand yuan. I asked him to keep it a secret and not to tell anyone that he had seen me.
After just running a long distance of several hundred kilometers and receiving such a generous reward, Lao Wang burst into laughter. He patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry! I promise to keep everything secret."
I thought I would continue to live a dull life, but I never thought...
I was wrong.
Counting the time, nearly two months after I left the abandoned mine in Blackwater City, I received a strange phone call.
The caller was none other than Uncle Liao.
He asked me to meet as soon as possible. I told him that we no longer lived in Potou, Zhongningsha. For safety reasons, I set the meeting place at Spider Alley. I was afraid that he would not be able to find this place, so I asked Lao Wen to pick him up.
.
I remember that around 8 o'clock that night, Lao Wen came back on a tricycle. Uncle Liao was not on the car. However, when Lao Wen came back, there was a large camouflage backpack on the car.
"Come into the house quickly, this is not the place to talk." Old Wen looked around and hurriedly led me into the house.
I asked the old scholar?
I asked you to pick someone up, but they didn’t come. Why did you just bring back a bag?
Lao Wen put the big camouflage bag on the ground in the house and whispered to me: "Didn't you ask me to pick someone up? I saw the old man with white hair. He said that he felt bad ever since he got off the train in Yinchuan. He always felt that he was on the road.
There were a pair of eyes looking at me from behind, but every time I turned around suddenly, there was nothing there. The old man said that just in case, the people and goods were separated."
"The people and goods will be separated?"
I frowned and looked at the camouflage bag on the ground.
After thinking about it, I said, Lao Wen, you go out first, you have had a hard time on the road.
The old man was so knowledgeable that he didn't ask much.
After he left, I picked up my backpack and put it on the table. It felt light and heavy.
Opening the zipper of the backpack, there was a rectangular foam insulated box stuffed inside the bag, and the box was covered with yellow tape.
At this time, Xiaoxuan was holding the bowl and came over curiously to take a look.
I guessed that the foam box might be a replica of Saraswati, and my hands were shaking a little.
I eagerly want to see it.
Can artificial imitation achieve the level of uncanny workmanship that can resemble the real thing?
Xiaoxuan put down the bowl and helped me press the foam box to secure it.
I found scissors, and with excitement, I cut open the tape layer by layer.
When I took off the lid of the foam box, the first thing that caught my eye was an opaque blue raincloth. I didn't know what was wrapped under the thick raincloth.
"Is the wonderful sound bird that Uncle Liao made afraid of getting wet?"
"No, it's been a few months and it's still raining. Now it's snowing."
Xiaoxuan picked up the rice and took a bite with a spoon, and said, "Maybe it's because I'm afraid of getting wet. Let's take a look and see what's in it."
I didn't say anything and untied the raincloth layer by layer in confusion.
"Clang!"
When she saw the things wrapped in Yubu, Xiaoxuan's hands shook and her rice bowl fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Xiaoxuan's face turned pale! Her eyes kept retreating in fear!
I also took several steps back!
I almost peeed out of fear!
The one in the foam box is not the Wonderbird made by Uncle Liao!
It's a living human hand!
Hearing the sound of the bowl breaking, Yu Wenbin hurried over to check the situation.
Seeing my pale face and chattering teeth, Yu Wenbin walked in curiously and looked down at the open foam box.
"Whose is this?" His expression changed and he turned around to ask.
"No...I don't know..." I felt bad all over, and my speech was a little incoherent.
Brother Yu immediately closed the lid and told me not to panic and speak clearly.
Whose hand!
I was so scared that I frantically dialed Lao Wen’s cell phone number and asked him to come over quickly.
