Chapter 230 Just for fun
After He Yang was sent back to Zedu, Zuo Zixuan and others prepared to set off for Xiangzhou.
He Yi presented his ID and three people's letters of introduction at the ticket window and bought a four-person soft sleeper ticket to Xiangzhou.
At dawn the next morning, several people got up and went to the state-owned restaurant next door to have breakfast. They pretended to pack some food and hurriedly boarded the train to Xiangzhou.
Less than a quarter of an hour after I got on the train, it blew its whistle, and began to clang forward with thick smoke billowing out of it.
In the four-person carriage, there was one empty bed besides Zuo Zixuan and the other two.
I don’t know whether the tickets were not sold or people didn’t get on the bus at this station.
Their soft sleeper carriage was connected to a hard seat carriage.
The entire soft sleeper car was filled with a complex smell of burning coal, sweat and old wood.
The hard seat aisle was filled with all kinds of luggage, and the worn sacks were bulging, and no one knew what was inside.
Wicker baskets were askew in the corners, and there were objects of various shapes and wrapped in colorful cloth.
There are some chickens, ducks and geese tied at the connection of the carriages.
People's conversations rose and fell, sometimes high and sometimes low, and the cries of chickens, ducks and geese mixed with the occasional crying of children formed a grand ensemble.
The window of He Yi's carriage was half open, and a breeze blew in from time to time. The weather in early spring was still a little chilly. He reached out and touched Zuo Zixuan's hand, which felt a little cold.
He stood up, closed the window a little, and closed the door of the soft sleeper compartment.
He sat back next to Zuo Zixuan, held her hand and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, my dear, we will definitely find a way to cure your eyes."
Zuo Zixuan raised her face slightly, staring forward with empty eyes, the corners of her mouth raised, and she smiled and said, "Yes, I will.
The worst outcome is to be blind for life.
These days, I'm almost getting used to the darkness. It's nothing, I just have to get used to it."
He Yi looked at Zuo Zixuan's appearance and felt so distressed that he hugged her in his arms and comforted her:
"Don't worry, if it really can't be cured, I'll be your eyes."
The rock in Zuo Zixuan's heart had long been shattered into pieces. It was really her luck to meet a man like He Yi in this era.
The entire journey lasted two days and one night. As soon as Xu Qingfeng got on the bus, he climbed onto the upper bunk and went to sleep.
Around noon, the bus stopped at Xiangshi to pick up and drop off passengers.
By the time all the passengers got on and off, the doors were closed and the car started again, it was almost time for lunch.
He Yi woke up Xu Qingfeng, took the kettle and lunch box to get some water, washed the lunch box, and prepared to come back to eat instant noodles.
It was lunchtime and many people were getting hot water. The people in the soft sleeper cars also opened their doors and came out one after another.
Those who brought their own dry food carried the kettle to get some water, and those who didn't bring any dry food went to the dining car in groups of three or four to eat.
This is the soft sleeper car. The dining car usually doesn't come here. They mainly sell food in the hard seat car.
However, Zuo Zixuan and the others were very close to the hard seat carriage and could hear the hawking sounds from over there.
A man as thin as a dead tree, with his hands folded across his chest, quietly moved from the hard seat car to the soft sleeper car.
A few passengers in the soft sleeper car saw it, thought it was just a passerby, and didn't take it seriously.
During lunch time, more and more people come in and out of the aisle of the soft sleeper car.
The skinny man looked at the passengers in the carriage, who were eating meat buns in their hands with relish, and he swallowed water quietly.
In the sunken eye sockets, a pair of bloodshot eyes revealed despair and madness, as if burning with the last bit of anger.
Just as he was about to pull his clothes off, Xu Qingfeng walked over and put his arm around his shoulders.
"Brother, why are you standing here? I'm looking for you to have dinner with me, come on, come on..."
The thin man looked confused as Xu Qingfeng hugged him and walked into the box.
He Yize followed behind the two of them with a serious face.
Several people entered the carriage, Xu Qingfeng pushed the person to sit on the lower bunk, and He Yi closed the door with his backhand.
The thin man saw He Yi's ferocious look and fearfully grasped the edge of his clothes.
He Yi took out the gun from his waist and placed it on the table. "Let's see which is faster, my gun or your speed of striking a match?"
The thin man was shaking with fear.
"You, what are you going to do?"
"It's not what we are going to do, but what are you going to do when you get in the car with a bunch of explosives tied to your body?"
The thin man looked at He Yi in surprise. He hadn't even unzipped his clothes yet, so how did he know that he had explosives tied to his body?
He Yi took out his ID and slapped it on the table and said:
"You think you're a good disguise?
Can this thin coat cover up the explosives?
The fuses are hanging outside, so it doesn’t matter whether you cover them or not.”
Xu Qingfeng stood at the door, looking the man up and down.
His chapped lips were bloodless, his chin was covered with stubble of varying lengths, and his ragged clothes were covered with patches and stains, as if telling of the misery of his life.
The man doesn't look very old, at most a little older than He Yi.
Xu Qingfeng subconsciously felt that this person was not a bad person.
"Brother, if you have any problems, we can sit down and talk it out. Why would you do such an extreme thing when you are so young?"
The man lowered his head and sneered, tears welling up in his eyes, his voice hoarse and full of grief and indignation:
"Speak nicely?
Who would be willing to listen to what a poor wretch like me has to say?
I once had a warm and happy family. Although I was born in the countryside, I had a job that allowed my family to have enough food and clothing.
But the world changes so quickly. The chemical plant where I worked merged with other plants due to poor performance.
A factory doesn’t need more than two accountants, and I lost my job in an instant.
In order to keep my family alive, I ran around everywhere, doing all the dirty and tiring work, but the meager income was not enough to feed my family."
Xu Qingfeng tried to comfort him, "Life always has ups and downs. As long as you don't give up, there will always be a turnaround."
The man became more and more excited and shouted loudly:
“Turning point?
My sick old mother had no money for medical treatment and had to leave this world in despair and pain.
My wife couldn't stand this endless hard life anymore and left me cruelly!
My child was so hungry that his face was pale and his body was thin. He wore tattered clothes every day. He suffered all kinds of hardships with me and finally died of starvation in his sleep.
I worked hard day and night, but in the end, I lost everything and kept nothing!"
"But even if you hurt these innocent people, it won't change what happened to you."
The man was like an enraged beast. He pulled open his clothes, revealing the explosives inside, and shouted hysterically:
"I have no way out. This cold and indifferent world won't let me live. Then we will all die together!"
Suddenly, without any warning, the train came to a sudden stop, and the carriage seemed to be shaken violently by a giant hand.
There was a sudden chaos in the next carriage. The luggage fell off the shelves like uncontrolled stones, hitting the ground with a dull sound.
In the midst of this chaos, a sinister and strange sneer suddenly sounded over the carriage's broadcast. The voice seemed to come from hell and was creepy.
A malicious voice echoed: "No one on this train will leave alive!"
He Yi frowned, looked at the thin man who was knocked to the ground, and asked, "Do you have any accomplices?"
The thin man shook his head in confusion, "No, who would ask someone to join them in suicide?"
"I didn't want to be mistaken for being in cahoots with the guy on the radio, so I quickly removed the explosives from my body."
"Oh……"
The thin man hurriedly tried to unbutton his clothes, but he was too nervous and his hands were shaking badly, and he failed to unbutton them after several attempts.
Xu Qingfeng couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so he reached out to help him untie and pull off his clothes.
Unexpectedly, he looked up at Zui Zixuan opposite him, and quickly covered his clothes tightly.
"Why are you still covering it tightly?"
"There are lesbians watching us across the street." The thin man said with his face flushed and his neck thick, lowering his head.
Xu Qingfeng turned around and glanced at Zuo Zixuan. Before he could say anything, Zuo Zixuan said with a smile:
"Comrade, I'm blind and can't see anything, so you can take off your clothes without worry."
The thin man looked around and waved his hand in front of Zuo Zixuan.
"Oh, don't waste time. The railway police will come over soon, and you will have a fixed place to eat and drink for the rest of your life."
The thin man would rather starve to death than go in and eat that meal.
He quickly took off his clothes and removed the explosives tied to his body.
The more anxious you are, the harder it will be to take it apart.
In a hurry, Xu Qingfeng used too much force and directly tore a corner of the explosive pack.
The contents inside immediately flowed out.
Xu Qingfeng took the things in it with his hands, looked at the thin man in disbelief and asked:
"Oh my god, brother, this is 90% loess. Are you sure this thing can explode?"
The thin man blushed and scratched the back of his head. "There was not enough money, so I put in a little more soil."
Xu Qingfeng pulled the corner of his mouth:...
I thought this guy was a terrorist, but I didn't expect he was just trying to be funny.
He Yi also rolled his eyes and shook his head, pointing at the crappy stuff he had taken off the thin man and said, "Qingfeng, throw that thing out.
You guys stay here and watch over Xuanxuan. I'll go out and see what's going on."
Xu Qingfeng nodded.
"He Yi..."
Before he could walk out, Zuo Zixuan called him.
He Yi fell back and sat next to Zuo Zixuan and hugged her, "What's wrong?"
"be careful!"
He Yi said "hmm", kissed her forehead lightly, and turned away.
At this time, there was a commotion outside the carriage, and someone was shouting, "Who is it? Who is hiding in the dark and acting like a ghost?"
The mysterious person on the radio replied sarcastically:
"I?
I am the Buddha who will free you from the sea of suffering and send you to the Western Paradise."
He Yi narrowed his eyes and walked cautiously towards the carriage broadcasting room following the sound.
He was wondering, with such a big fuss, haven't the railway police on the train caught anyone yet?
When he walked to the connection, a dark shadow flashed by like a ghost.
He Yi didn't hesitate at all, he quickly caught up with him.
When I caught up with the black shadow, I looked closely and found that it was the thin man in the car just now.
