【006】That's it
The town suddenly came back to life, and Zhong Kui secretly wondered if this was the beginning of a bet given to him by his inner demon.
Jiang Rong had just recovered from the nightmare, and when she was about to fall asleep again, she heard her father Zhong Kui calling Uncle Chen, so she hurriedly got up and squinted to look at the dim scene outside, her mind still immersed in the nightmare environment. , I opened my mouth and wanted to tell the nightmare just now, but I was worried that there was Jiang Shuai's father in the dream. If this father heard his name, he would feel uncomfortable.
After hesitating, everyone got up. After understanding what Zhong Kui said, they all rushed to the window to take a look. Sure enough, they saw a light in a corner of the town...
This is the town in Jiang Rong's memory. The streets are as bright as day, bustling with people coming and going. This is the only town with inconvenient transportation for thousands of miles. Most of the people who come and go in the town are Farmers, lime mines were once produced here. I don’t know how long ago, the number of vehicles traveling between the metropolis and this remote mountainous area gradually decreased, and even in the end there was no trace.
If the mountain people who depend on the mountains and water for their livelihoods lack their only source of income, will their lives be easy? They who come from outside the mountains don't know much about this place and don't know the situation here.
Maybe it was because after the death of the bad guy Lime Mine Dealer Du Yunhai that he didn't deserve to die, external information and resources were cut off, which caused the mining of lime mines, large and small, to stop, or maybe it was other reasons that made people become lazy. He lives in this world like a zombie.
People came and went in twos and threes with expressionless faces. Jiang Rong shouted to a woman: "Auntie, do you remember me?" The woman didn't blink her eyelids, completely ignored her, ignored her, and walked away. past.
Zhiqing, Zhong Kui and He Pengfei stood there blankly, looking at Jiang Rong and shouting to a middle-aged man with a smile: "Uncle, I have been here before, do you still remember me?"
The man stared intently, saying something to an old man next to him, and ignored her shouts...
It's strange that these people treat Jiang Rong like glass. Although she hasn't been here for a long time and may not remember who she is, they should at least be polite.
Jiang Rong looked embarrassed, thinking that for such an outstanding girl, why wasn't she popular? With a grimace on her face, she shrugged helplessly and said in a confident tone: "I'll take you there to see it. ,The boss over there knows me,"
When we arrived at the shop Jiang Rong mentioned, the boss and his wife were doing the math, while the other was weighing sugar.
She ran over happily and shouted to her boss: "Hello, boss,"
The boss used his stubby fingers to do the abacus in a familiar manner, nagging his wife from time to time, but ignored Jiang Rong who started shouting.
Zhong Kui, who was following her, felt an inexplicable pain in his heart when he saw all this. A vague uneasiness crept into his heart. This uneasiness made him feel even more frightened.
He seemed to see his inner demon mixed up in the crowds coming and going. He should have something to do with what he saw in front of him.
Jiang Rong didn't have to look back to feel that He Pengfei must be laughing at her incompetence. She was unconvinced and did not give up because of the other party's indifference.
be discouraged.
I saw the landlady counting the cents with a very serious look, so I moved closer to ask her. Just as she leaned forward, I caught a glimpse of a familiar shadow from the corner of my eye. She stopped, looked back, and the shadow suddenly slipped into the crowd. Ran away.
Gui Ya, she is still alive. When she saw a familiar shadow, Jiang Rong's heart skipped a beat and she retreated. She hurriedly said to Zhi Qing and the others, "I'll be right back." She had already shot far away to chase Gui Ya. Already.
"This girl..." Zhiqing shouted, and he followed Jiang Rong with He Pengfei without any explanation.
Zhong Kui paused for a moment because another 'person' caught his eye.
As expected, the inner demon was hiding in the crowd. After seeing Zhiqing and the others leaving, he unexpectedly popped out of the crowd and stared at Zhong Kui with a strange smile on his face.
"If you want to know the truth, come with me," the demon said and left the crowd.
Zhong Kui's vision was a little dull and hesitant. He didn't know whether to chase Jiang Rong or follow his inner demon. However, what was the truth about what he just told him? His curiosity gradually took over and he finally decided to follow his inner demon. Go and have a look.
The inner demon is floating, but Zhong Kui is walking, so the speed is naturally much slower. The inner demon sneered and said: "You can also float, but you haven't fully understood it yet."
Zhong Kui didn't understand what the other party said. After they left the town, everything around them fell into darkness again. He also had questions in his heart, why the town could be as bright as daytime, but the surroundings around them were dark.
"I want to ask why, you will know later,"
Zhong Kui hates people who do psychological dialysis, except of course Ran Qin. The inner demon is for him. Whatever he thinks in his heart must go through the inner demon. The only thing he can do now is to calm down, eliminate all distracting thoughts, and let the inner demon go. It is impossible to guess and analyze his true thoughts.
He stopped and walked, not knowing how far he had walked. Anyway, in the dark, he could make a simple distinction using color. The white ones were houses, the dark ones were shadowy, and the woods far or near were.
Finally, they stopped in front of the largest, tallest, and most spacious house. The structure of this house made it look like a hospital at first glance. Zhong Kui didn't understand why his inner demon brought him here.
Just when he was about to ask him, he saw him waving at the door into the hospital corridor. He walked over in confusion and silently followed the inner demon into a seemingly large ward.
There are four beds in the ward, and four critically ill patients are lying on the beds...
The inner demon seemed to be too scrupulous to move forward. He just gestured for him to come closer to see the patient in bed No. 1. Zhong Kui got closer and looked at him. He couldn't help but be shocked. This patient was none other than him. It was really Zhong Kui. , and then looked at the others in turn, they were all Jiang Rong, He Pengfei, and Chen Zhiqing. Looking at this scene, Zhong Kui understood in an instant... Entering the dense forest, the heavy truck carrying ore collided with their car.
They did not escape death, but got into a serious car accident, the truck escaped, and people passing by the highway rushed to take them to a nearby hospital.
