what's weird

Chapter 32

What was happening in Yicheng, Gu Yizhi didn't know, and had no way of knowing, because the bus he was riding in had broken down and had broken down in the wilderness for most of the day. Until now, the sun had set, and no rescue and support vehicles had appeared.

Gu Yizhi's hometown is in Hanchang City, about four or five hours' drive from Yicheng, and it only takes more than two hours by train. Counting the time, it was not too much difference, so I simply chose the car that went directly to my door.But thousands of calculations have been made, but they did not count that the car would break down halfway and stop in the wilderness where there is no village or shop in front of it.

At the beginning, the passengers were still waiting calmly. They were sitting on the side of the road chatting or playing cards, and they looked very happy.But soon someone became impatient and asked the driver when he could drive.The driver explained that he had already called the passenger station, and that the pick-up vehicle would take at least two hours to arrive here from Yicheng.

Hearing what he said, most people expressed their understanding. After all, Yicheng is not too close to here. Seeing that everyone had no objections, the troublemakers could only continue to wait.

Time passed by, the car was scorched by the sun, and the people who were resting in it all got out of the car and looked for a shady place to stay.Two hours later, the pick-up vehicle did not appear in sight as everyone expected, and the angry passengers ran over to argue with the driver, demanding refunds and compensation.

The driver, a man in his 40s, was pushed and shoved by them, and there was no place to leave, so he quickly called the passenger terminal again.

"...What? Then what should we do?... No, I have too many people... Oh oh... Oh... Okay, it's the only way..."

All the passengers looked at the driver with staring eyes. Seeing him hang up the phone, some of them couldn't wait to ask, "How is it? When will the car come?"

The driver said in embarrassment: "The car that came before had an accident on the road, so..."

"Then change the car! We can't leave so many of us alone!" A woman cried out, and the others followed suit.

"The traffic jam was caused by the traffic accident. Another car arrived here in the middle of the night. The station said that if you are not in a hurry, you can wait here with me. If you are in a hurry, you can take a ride." The driver said. Said.

"Middle of the night? This is not acceptable. My child is sick. I am in a hurry to see him in the hospital!"

"That's right, that's right, how can we wait until midnight!"

"You can take a free ride, but what about the fare, what about the lost wages, will you pay for it?"

"Yes, you have to ask about this matter!"

"It's wild and wild, so there are so many rides, isn't this obviously a scam!"

A group of people were arguing, and the driver's voice was particularly weak at this time. Gu Yizhi was not in the mood to blend in, and simply sat on the roadside stones and watched them argue.

This road has been repaired for a long time, and it is one of the main routes to Hanchang City. Later, due to the opening of high-speed roads and the popularity of bullet trains, now few vehicles take this route except for some fixed-stop buses.Gu Yizhi sat here for such a long time, and only a few trucks and transport vehicles passed by in general. He sighed, thinking that even if he could get home today, it would probably be in the middle of the night.

A silver-white car drove over from a distance, and stopped slowly beside Gu Yizhi. A young and handsome face appeared from the rolled-down car window, and called out in surprise, "Yizhi?"

Gu Yizhi was stunned for a moment, and then said pleasantly: "Wen Hao!"

Li Wenhao looked around and said strangely: "What's wrong? Is the car broken?"

"Yeah, I was planning to go home, but I didn't expect to be trapped here." Gu Yizhi said with a wry smile.

"I remember you are from Hanchang City, right? It's just a coincidence, I happened to be on the way, let's get in the car!" Li Wenhao said enthusiastically.

Gu Yizhi and Li Wenhao's classmates in the police academy have always had a good relationship. After graduation, he went to the criminal investigation department, while Li Wenhao returned to his hometown to inherit the family business and became an antique dealer. They gradually lost contact. Both of them are very happy to meet here.

There were two other people in the car. The co-pilot was a young girl in her 20s, with fair skin, short chestnut hair, and exquisite facial features. She looked up at Gu Yizhi through the rearview mirror, with a bit of impatience in her expression.Sitting in the back seat was a man, who looked to be two years older than them, wearing a pair of military boots, his eyes were piercing, he reached out to help Gu Yizhi lift his luggage, and introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Yuan Feng. "

"Yuan Feng is my buddy. He just came back from the army last year. You can barely be regarded as half of the same team! She is my girlfriend Yu Qianqian!" Li Wenhao introduced each other while driving, "He is Gu Yizhi, I am in the police academy. classmate!"

Gu Yizhi greeted them, and Yu Qianqian complained while playing with her mobile phone: "How long will it take to arrive? It's been driving for so long!"

"I guess it's almost here. It's the first time I've been here." Li Wenhao looked out the window and said.

"Where are you going?" Gu Yizhi asked.

"Longquanling, my dad negotiated a deal with someone and asked me to bring the things back." Li Wenhao replied.

"It's not far from here. If you drive here, you should be there in an hour." Gu Yizhi pointed to the front and said.Longquanling is a small county below Hanchang City. There are several ancient battlefield relics around it, and occasionally some antiques can be dug up. In recent years, it has gradually been developed into a tourist attraction, and now it is one of the characteristics of Hanchang.

"Hey, is that place fun?" Yu Qianqian turned her head and scratched the back of the chair curiously.

"I haven't been there for a few years, I heard it's developing well now." Gu Yizhi said.It used to be an ordinary county town. The local residents didn't take the old blockhouse seriously. Later, they went to an archaeological team and dug several pits near the blockhouse. They said that this place is a historical relic and should be protected. It is because I smell business opportunities that I take it seriously.After several years of development and modification, it is said that it still looks good.

"If it's not fun, let's see how I deal with you!" Yu Qianqian pouted at Li Wenhao and snorted.

"Just treat it as if you're here to accompany me on errands, can't you?" Li Wenhao said flatteringly.

"No way! Why don't you go shopping and drink tea with your friends!" Yu Qianqian turned her head and ignored him.

"Is your friend more important than me?" Li Wenhao asked pitifully.

"Who told you to only care about your broken jars all day long, think about how long you haven't watched a movie with me!" Yu Qianqian complained.

"I'm taking you out to play right now!" Li Wenhao cried out for himself.

"Just come to this poor mountain corner? Why don't you take me to France or Italy?" Yu Qianqian gave him a push.

Li Wenhao was unprepared, the steering wheel twisted half a circle under the force of inertia, and almost hit the mountain, he said reproachfully: "Qianqian, don't make trouble, I'm driving now!"

Yu Qianqian angrily turned her head to look out the window, Yuan Feng frowned, as if she couldn't understand her spoiled appearance.Gu Yizhi saw that the atmosphere was a little stiff, so he quickly smoothed things over: "Actually, Longquanling is not bad, at least there are a lot of delicious food."

"What's delicious?" Yu Qianqian became interested.

"This..." Gu Yizhi searched for words about Longquanling in the ocean of memory.Suddenly, a thunderstorm rang out on the empty and quiet mountain road, startling the four people in the car. Dark clouds billowed in the sky, lightning cut through the sky immediately, and rumbling sounds came and went.

"What's going on? Is it going to rain?" Yu Qianqian opened the car window and looked around. A flash of lightning hit her fiercely. She screamed and quickly pulled her head back.

"It looks like it's going to rain heavily." Yuan Feng said with a frown.

"No way, I read the weather forecast and said it will be sunny!" Li Wenhao looked out through the front window, and the big raindrops fell and bloomed on the window glass.

The sky became as dark as the evening, the wind was strong, the dark clouds rolled, and the heavy rain poured down, drowning the whole world.Li Wenhao turned on the lights, slowed down, and drove carefully in the thunderstorm.

"The day has changed too fast." Yu Qianqian said looking at the raindrops hitting the car window.

"Find a place to park, it's very dangerous." Yuan Feng said in a deep voice.

"What's the danger? We're in the car, and we won't get caught in the rain." Yu Qianqian said angrily.

"This kind of weather can easily lead to mudslides," Yuan Feng said.

"I don't believe it, it's not a TV show, what a coincidence!" Yu Qianqian said.

Yuan Feng frowned and said nothing.Gu Yizhi looked outside, and could vaguely see the muddy water and stones washed down by the rain on the mountain. He had learned about geological disaster prevention and rescue before, and knew that the vegetation on the mountain was not enough to withstand such a heavy rain. , does have the potential to cause landslides.

He was about to persuade Li Wenhao to find a safe place to stop and observe the situation first, when he heard a rumbling sound from the mountain, his expression changed instantly.

"What sound?" Yu Qianqian looked around and said.

"Stop!" Yuan Feng yelled.

Yu Qianqian was taken aback by him, and shouted dissatisfiedly: "What are you doing, you want to scare people to death!"

"Wenhao, stop!" Gu Yizhi grabbed Li Wenhao's shoulder.

The car pulled to the side and stopped slowly, with the lights blinking, Li Wenhao looked back at them with a strange expression: "What's wrong with you two? Why are you parked here?"

Neither Gu Yizhi nor Yuan Feng spoke, but the rumbling sound became louder and louder, and even the ground seemed to vibrate. Yu Qianqian rushed over and hugged Li Wenhao in fear, the car shook violently a few times, and everything returned to calm.

Yuan Feng leaned over to turn on the headlights, a beam of light shot out, and Yu Qianqian yelled.

Ten meters away from them, a huge rock wrapped in sand blocked the entire road, the ground was smashed into big pits and cracks, and the mountain was still dripping muddy water and gravel, as if it would happen at any time collapse.

"This..." Li Wenhao broke out in a cold sweat.

If they had just kept going, this rock would have hit...

"Get out of the car, it's not safe here!" Yuan Feng said loudly.He and Gu Yizhi opened the car door first and got out. Although Yu Qianqian's boss was not happy, it was obviously safer to stand in the rain than to risk her life sitting in the car.Under Li Wenhao's urging, she walked down timidly, and the big raindrops hit her face painfully, so she had to increase her voice and ask, "What should we do now?"

Yuan Feng took out a flashlight from the trunk, looked around, and found a path paved with stone slabs by the side of the road. He immediately squatted down to check for a while, and said, "Go down here, and you should be able to find the residents."

"How could there be any residents in this wilderness!" Li Wenhao said with no optimism.

"There is no moss or weeds growing on these stone slabs, which means that people often walk around." Gu Yizhi explained, "Therefore, there are likely to be people's homes below."

Yuan Feng nodded to him, and said: "The mountain collapse may occur at any time here. Everyone, bring food and water, and pay attention to protecting your mobile phone in case you communicate with the outside world. Let's leave here first!"

The four took their own bags from the car, Yuan Feng walked in the front, and after Gu Yizhi stopped, Li Wenhao held Yu Qianqian's hand tightly, and the group of four walked down the path in the pouring rain .
