The carriage became a little quiet. Among the standing passengers, they looked at the vacant seat after Lian Ge left, hesitated for a while, but did not move after all.

On the front side of the carriage, the middle-aged man with a basket on his back and a child in his arms slowly raised his head, looked at the empty seat and the vacant corridor, and then looked down at the child in his arms.

Moved away, walked from the vacant passage to the vacant seat,

With one hand struggling to hold her child, with the other hand slowly moving the rope of the carrying basket, trying to put the carrying basket down,

Behind him, the somewhat sturdy woman who got into the car before stretched out her hand to help,

"Thank you...thank you, thank you..."

The middle-aged man held the child in one hand, bent his back, and with the other hand, he tried his best to drag the basket in, while thanking him,

To the tough woman, to the passengers in the corridor of the carriage, to the window...

……

"...Lian Ge, don't you want to go to Xunyang City? Why did you get off the bus early? You shouldn't be there yet?"

There are some potholes and winding mountain roads, Lian Ge moved forward and walked forward, Gu Xiaoying's voice came from the earphone,

"Come down for a walk, and take a look at the scenery along the way."

Lian Ge responded with a smile.

"...Oh, man. Just pretend I didn't hear you."

On the other end of the phone, Gu Xiaoying hummed,

"What did you hear?"

"Did you see something in the car just now... Well, the conductor has been yelling to let you go back. With that tone and words, someone should be blocking the door..."

Listening to Gu Xiaoying's words, Lian Ge smiled slightly and continued walking along the winding mountain road.

Chapter 289 Bandits

"Chirp..."

Along the winding mountain road with some potholes, Lian Ge ended the phone call with Gu Xiaoying and continued to walk forward.

The mountain wind passes through the winding mountain road in the mountains, swaying the branches and leaves of the forest on the hills beside the road,

The sound of the wind was mixed with the chirping of insects and birds, and the voices of passers-by on the road lingered in my ears.

Walking, one person and one mouse gradually drifted away along the road and mountain road. By the roadside, villagers carrying woven bags, carrying baskets, or bringing children wiped their sweat from time to time. Together with the hills, they kept passing by.

The hills are getting shorter and the pedestrians are getting more and more. After the old urban and rural buses staggered and passed by a few times, the rolling hills receded behind them, replaced by buildings gradually growing in the distance in front of them. tall buildings.

On the road, there are more and more vehicles, and the noise of insects and birds is replaced by another kind of noise,

"Welcome to Xunyang..."

A banner hangs above the road. It seems that it has not been changed for a long time and has faded.

"Go to the city, go to the city, go to the city hospital, get in the car and go, get in the car and go..."

The van passing by slowed down and shouted towards the side of the road, more and more pedestrians gathered in the city,

"... selling apples, the price of apples has been reduced..."

Looking at the somewhat faded banner and listening to the hustle and bustle beside him, Lian Ge moved his feet and continued to walk forward.

The mountains and forests in the distance behind him receded further, and one person and one mouse stepped into the hustle and bustle of the city again.

……

"...The North Jianshe Road is here. Passengers who get off, please get off through the back door."

"Today's weather is gloomy. It always feels like it's going to rain. I knew I'd bring an umbrella when I went out."

"What's more, I told you to take it and you didn't take it, now you know?"

"Hello? Coming soon, coming soon, coming soon..."

"Clearance sale for the entire site, clearance sale, until sold out..."

Stepping into Xunyang City, Lian Ge chose a road at random and walked forward.

On the road, vehicles are congested and moving forward slowly,

Pedestrians are either hurrying or talking to each other,

Beside the road, in the shops, the sound of hawking can be heard from time to time, mixed with the sound of vehicles passing by on the road and the voices of pedestrians.

……

Moving around, looking at the city and the people who make it up, listening to the sounds on the side of the road, near and far, Lian Ge walked forward casually.

The little white mouse on the shoulder also turned its head, looking at the city.

The pace is gradually moving forward, the buildings and pedestrians on the side continue to pass by,

Above the head, the somewhat gloomy sky is also changing.

Dark clouds continued to gather, suppressing the city, and the sky became darker and darker.

……

After passing a few more streets, Lian Ge walked to a river and stopped again.

Looking not far away, the river was gently swaying with the wind. After pausing his sight, Lian Ge raised his head slightly, and looked at the sky above his head.

Thick dark clouds have covered the sky, and the air is filled with water vapor. It seems that a heavy rain is about to come.

"... Hurry up, if you don't hurry up, you will become drowned..."

"It's not your fault, I didn't even read the weather forecast when I went out..."

Listening to the sound of footsteps and voices passing by, and then quickly going away, Lian Ge looked away and looked at the riverside street that was becoming more and more quiet in front of him.

On the road, there were already very few pedestrians, either running towards the distance, or simply hiding in the shops beside the street.

At the same time, a somewhat abrupt figure came into Lian Ge's eyes.

It was the bridgehead intersection not far away, and vehicles still drove past the bridgehead road from time to time.

Pedestrians had already gone away under the threat of heavy rain, but at that intersection, a figure still stopped,

Even though the light at the intersection has turned green, it still stands there.

Looking at that figure, Lian Ge paused slightly,

It was an old man, an old lady, alone, with neither an umbrella nor anything in her hand,

Just standing at the intersection of the bridge head, looking at the cars passing by the bridge head in front of me, letting the water vapor carried by the breeze become more dense.

……

Glancing at the old lady again, Lian Ge turned his gaze back to the increasingly dense dark clouds above the sky,

Looking away, Lian Ge didn't stop, turned around, glanced along the riverside street, and walked towards a hotel by the river.

……

"...Sir, do you need accommodation?"

In the front lobby of the hotel, seeing Lian Ge stepping into the hotel, the front desk clerk stood up and asked,

"Stay for a day."

Lian Ge walked to the front desk and responded casually,

"What kind of room do you need..."

……

"Sir, the check-in procedure has been completed, let me take you to the room..."

"No need for now."

Lian Ge turned his gaze, looked outside the hotel through the door of the hotel lobby,

The wind was getting stronger and the sky was getting darker.

"All right, here is your room card... If you need to go out again, sir, here is an umbrella, you can take it with you."

After the front desk clerk handed the room card to Lian Ge, he followed Lian Ge's gaze, looked outside the hotel, and said aloud.

Smiling slightly, Lian Ge casually put the room card in his pocket, picked up an umbrella from the side of the front desk, and stepped out of the hotel lobby again.

……

Beside the street, Lian Ge turned his gaze, and then looked towards the bridge crossing,

The old lady was still there, as before, watching the vehicles passing by the bridge, and stopped.

Pausing his gaze, Lian Ge moved away and walked towards that place.

……

Walking to the intersection of Qiaotou, Lian Ge paused, then glanced at the old lady next to him,

The old lady looked about sixty years old, some gray hair was neatly combed,

The figure looks a little skinny, slightly hunched,

At this intersection, it seems unaware of the changes in the weather, just clasped hands together, silent, looking at the passing cars in front of him,

"Old lady, the shower is coming, don't you go home?"

Withdrawing his eyes, Lian Ge looked at the intersection, and said calmly,

Hearing the sound, the old lady seemed to notice Lian Ge beside her, she turned her head to look at Lian Ge, after a moment of silence, she shook her head,

"...Thank you."

After thanking her, the old lady turned her head back, clasped her hands as before, and looked at the road in front of her.

Glancing at the old lady again, Lian Ge turned his gaze back to the distance,

"The old lady is waiting for someone?"

Hearing this, the old lady still looked in front of her, remained silent, and didn't respond, but pressed her fingers on the back of her hand that was clasped in front of her.

Lian Ge didn't say anything more, and stood by the side, waiting quietly.

……

After a long time, the old lady turned her head and looked at Lian Ge. After being silent for a while, she said aloud,

"I'm waiting for someone, my son..."

After saying something, the old lady turned around and looked at a car passing by on the street and on the bridge,

"The eldest son broke the law and was sentenced to death. He will be shot today. The escort car will pass here..."

While talking, the old lady fell silent again.

Glancing at the old lady again, after a pause,

Without saying anything, Lian Ge looked away,

"...wow!"

Looking at the thick dark clouds overhead, Lian Ge opened the umbrella in his hand,

A gust of wind blows past, rolling down a dead leaf on a branch beside the road, engulfing it and heading for the distance,

At this moment, above the sky covered with dark clouds, sparse raindrops began to drip and hit the ground. Following that, the raindrops became denser and faster,

The falling dead leaves were slapped directly on the ground by the rapid raindrops,

A shower of rain hits.

The vehicles passing by on the road were washed away, and the buildings in the distance were blocked by rain and fog...
