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 leaving the abandoned mine pit in Heishui City, I received a strange phone call.
The caller was none other than Uncle Liao.
He asked me to meet him as soon as possible. I told him that we no longer lived in Potou, Ningsha. For safety reasons, I set the meeting place at Spider Alley. I was afraid that he would not find the place, so I asked him to pick him up.
I remember that it was around 8 o'clock that night. Lao came back on a tricycle. Uncle Liao was not on the car. However, when Lao came back, there was a large camouflage backpack on the car.
"Come into the house quickly, this is no place to talk." The old man looked around and hurriedly led me into the house.
I asked what about the old man?
I asked you to pick someone up, but they didn’t come. Why did you just bring back a bag?
Lao 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 there were people on the road.
His eyes were looking at me from behind, but every time he suddenly turned around, 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 you should go out first. You have had a hard time on the road.
The old man 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 curiously came over 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 Bin hurried over to check the situation.
Seeing my pale face and chattering teeth, Yu Bin 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 words were a little incoherent.
Brother Yu immediately closed the lid and told me not to panic and speak clearly.
Whose hand!
I was scared to death! I called my old cell phone number in a panic and asked him to come over quickly.
When I came into the cave, I noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and immediately said, "What's wrong? I haven't opened my backpack. If you lose something, don't look for me."
"vomit!"
Xiaoxuan was eating just now. At this time, she couldn't bear it anymore and ran outside to the aisle to retching.
I pinched myself hard to wake myself up.
"Old...I ask you, who...who asked you to get this bag back..."
Lao looked at me and said, "It's as you said. The mobile phone number I called at the station was an old man. I picked him up at the No. 2 exit. The man had a lot of white hair, just like what you said, boss."
"
"What does it look like!"
"What does that person look like exactly?"
The old man looked embarrassed and said: "This...how do you want me to describe it? It's just like an ordinary person."
Yu Bin frowned and asked: "Are you paying attention? Is there anyone following you on the road?"
The old man immediately shook his head: "No! Absolutely not! I paid special attention to this matter, and even took a detour in the alley for this purpose. I guarantee that no one will follow me after I come out of the station."
Brother Yu turned to me and said, "Don't worry about who sent it. I looked at it just now and it's definitely a man's hand. It's been frozen for a long time. It's hard to say the age range. It's probably between 35 and 50."
, if you think about it carefully, who do people of this age group know?"
"It hasn't been frozen for a long time?"
"35 to 50...men..."
My head is spinning! I wonder who it could be!
I can only confirm that I contacted Uncle Liao. As for whether the person I received at the station was Uncle Liao, I am not sure.
My face turned pale and I asked Xiaoxuan: "Where is Bean Sprouts?"
Xiaoxuan vomited for a while and said intermittently that the satellite TV had no signal. Dou Sprout and Lao Ge went out to repair the TV early in the morning.
I called him.
It sounds like Dou Sprout is on the road, and you can hear the sound of cars whizzing by from time to time.
"What's wrong Fengzi? I'm walking back. Do you need to bring you something back?"
"Don't come back yet. Go to the station, especially Exit No. 2, and see if you can meet Uncle Liao. If you see him, don't say hello. Just call me back. If you don't see him, come back quickly."
"who?"
"Uncle Liao! The fake bird is ready??" Dou Sprout's voice rose two points.
"Don't ask so many questions now, hurry up." I urged.
When Douyazai heard what I said, he panicked and realized that something might have happened. He immediately said that he understood and took a taxi over to take a look.
At this moment, the phone has not been hung up.
I suddenly heard a harsh brake sound!
There was also a loud crashing sound!
"Ya Zai! Ya Zai!"
"Lu Ziming! Lu Ziming!"
The phone was still open, but Dou Sprout suddenly stopped talking, and I lost contact with him.
Only two or three minutes later, suddenly, a stranger's voice came from Douyazai's cell phone.
"Hello....."
"Who are you!" I asked nervously, holding my phone.
There was silence on the phone for a few seconds, and I heard a man's voice say in a low voice:
"Come here for an interview. I should have received what I gave you. I heard that the man and you had a holiday. In order to show goodwill, a small gift would not be considered respectful."
"If you don't come, your friend won't survive. I hope you believe what I say."
I stood up and roared, asking who you are!
"You'll know when you get here."
The person on the phone spoke calmly and continued: "We know everything about you. Likewise, we can help you deal with any troubles you have."
