Dazed

The breakfast was porridge cooked by Qi Zheng, of course, under the guidance of Cao Jingxing, but even with the help of Cao Jingxing, the clumsy man was in a panic. In the end, there was only a whole pot of white porridge on the table. No.

Qi Zheng scratched his chin in embarrassment with his hands that could move bricks and fight but couldn't get them. "Is there mustard?"

"No." Cao Jingxing replied speechlessly.

Qi Zheng frowned and asked, "Can you eat it? If you can't eat it, I'll go outside and buy a portion."

"Where are you going when you're wet? Let's just mix it with some soy sauce." Cao Jingxing said.

"Soy sauce will leave scars, so add some salt." Qi Zheng said, then went to the kitchen, took the salt back and mixed it again.

When eating breakfast, Qi Zheng snorted and finished half a bowl of sticky porridge. He raised his eyes to see that Cao Jingxing was drinking with his left hand, and after thinking about it, he asked for help. Asked: "Is there any way you can get a ticket for tomorrow?"

When Cao Jingxing heard this, he put the spoon down, looked up at him, and said, "Do you want to go home?"

"Yeah." Qi Zheng began to show worry on his face, and said frankly: "My father's illness is serious, and I want to go back soon."

"But what about your wages here?"

"I'll get it this afternoon," Qi Zheng looked at him curiously, and said, "How about it? Can I get it?" He always thought that Cao Jingxing was very powerful, and it seemed that nothing could trouble him, but he was just a guy after all. Students, I don't know if there is such a relationship.

Unexpectedly, Cao Jingxing frowned, as if he thought it was quite easy, and said: "Isn't it tomorrow, of course."

So the next day, Qi Zheng carried his and Cao Jingxing's suitcases and got into a brand new car in the dark and humid rainy day. The air was filled with a faint smell of gunpowder, probably left behind by those children after the firecrackers. , the year is coming to an end.

"How much does it cost to go back here?" Qi Zheng has never taken a car home, nor has he come into contact with such a big guy, so he has no idea about the price.

Cao Jingxing sat on the seat next to him slowly, and said, "50 yuan."

Qi Zheng looked unhappy, and said, "Are you kidding me?"

"I borrowed the car from someone, and my friend drove the car. He happened to be home too, so there is only a little gas money. How much can I have?"

The man who had been silent since we met and just drove the car suddenly said, "I'm still driving."

Qi Zheng glanced at him when he heard the words, although he was curious about his silence, but seeing Cao Jingxing's calm expression, he didn't say anything, and Cao Jingxing said a few more words to put the topic to rest.

The car drove along the bare road until it got on the expressway. At a glance, there were wilderness on both sides, barren mountains and wild grass, so bleak.

Qi Zheng sat in the car and felt bored after playing the game console brought by the other party for a while. However, he didn't need to drive, and he didn't want to stare at Cao Jingxing, so he threw the game console to Cao Jingxing, lowered his seat, and closed his eyes. Eyes refreshed.

Cao Jingxing looked at him, put away the game console, and covered him with a blanket. When he raised his head and looked forward, the tenderness on his face turned cold again in an instant.

The man driving ahead suddenly opened his lips, "Ya...something happened ahead."

"Keep driving." Cao Jingxing opened his lips and said.

The road ahead of the car was empty. From time to time, one or two cars roared past. In the quiet space, only the sound of the car starting could be heard, and nothing unusual could be seen.

The car went forward for about one kilometer, and a chaotic scene came into view. There was a deformed vehicle parked beside the expressway, surrounded by many policemen, and a space was separated by a barrier strip. The ground was full of traces of gasoline. , The appearance of the car was burnt pitch black, exuding a strong smell of gasoline, as if an explosion had occurred.

Qi Zheng lay on the seat with his eyes closed and fell into a deep sleep. The man driving the car said, "Master Cliff, there is an aura of hell."

Cao Jingxing stared straight ahead, his eyes were as cold as ever, let the pile of broken vehicles whiz by his ears, and said slowly, "Can't you smell whose it is?"

The man suddenly realized, his face regained his composure, and said: "Yes."

On the side of the highway near the hillside, a Fox that accidentally crashed into the mountain and caused an explosion was surrounded by noisy police sirens. The police who came after receiving the alarm checked carefully and found that the four men in the car were all dead. , Immediately reported the accident, and according to the personal items found in the car, the names of the four people who died were: Zhang Guoxing, Zhan Sales, Zeng Ming, and Lin Fan.

All the first-level wanted criminals in City X died in a car accident. Liu Xianhe, who had been successfully captured, confessed to the murder of migrant workers to defraud compensation and the real estate bombing. So far, a major case has been solved.

Tao Qinghui, who was training and preparing zombies in the field, suddenly smelled a familiar and strong Yin Qi. His expression froze, and he hurried towards his destination. When he saw the abandoned car parked by the roadside, he was under the strong smell of gasoline. Indeed, one could vaguely see a looming black mist, which was very faint. If he hadn't happened to be nearby, the smell might have dissipated.

However, the doubts in his heart became more and more serious. This smell is not the same as the ghost aura he encountered before, but it is very similar to the old man he met many years ago?

Yan Jun?He appeared again?How can it be?

Thinking of that disgusting man, Tao Qinghui's face was gradually filled with chills. Could it be that the ghosts among the people suddenly became angry because of his coming?That man who has always been hiding in the underworld has appeared in the world again?

On the distant field, layers of thick dark clouds piled up in the sky, and lightning flashed across from time to time, and after a while, it rained again, and ghosts occasionally wandered on the muddy road.

King Yan Luo's body is weak, the aunt's door is wide open, his soul wanders, disturbing the world, and the sun is hidden under the thick clouds, and it is always difficult to let out the light.

"Master Cliff, if a living being is in contact with the undead for a long time, it may damage its lifespan."

"I know."

"Your friend……"

"I know." Cao Jingxing interrupted again. Looking at Qi Zheng who was sleeping soundly beside him, he suddenly stretched out his hand and slowly brushed the other's delicate cheek, and said, "I can't wait to tick off his Yangshou with one stroke." He spoke lightly. The weight hidden in it is unimaginable.

In the dream, Qi Zheng seemed to have sensed something, shivered suddenly, and his face was tangled.

The ghost driving the car didn't dare to challenge his remaining prestige, so he kept silent and regained his calm.

The car has been driving steadily, whistling all the way, the scenery on both sides of the road is similar, large fields, occasionally over mountains, through caves and tunnels, and occasionally see a large plain, a large lake, Qi Zheng's eyes He closed it and fell asleep. When he woke up, the car was parked in front of a gas station, and the light outside the car woke him up.

Cao Jingxing was on the side, handed a portion of grilled wings, and a cup of hot drink came over, even lowering his voice a bit, he said, "Have something to eat, the drink is still hot, take it easy."

Qi Zheng took it over, with a confused look on his face, and said, "What time is it?"

"It's 01:30, and now we're in Qizhou City." Cao Jingxing replied after taking a sip of the hot water in his hand.

"I'll probably arrive in the afternoon." Qi Zheng said.

Cao Jingxing smiled and said, "It will probably be five o'clock."

"Where is your friend's house?" Qi Zheng asked, looking at the man standing outside the car filling the car.

"Qushi, he will take us there first, and then leave. If you want to come back and get the car from him then, just go." Cao Jingxing said.

The car traveled south all the way, drove the highway for seven or eight hours, and finally drove into a town that Qi Zheng was familiar with at five o'clock in the afternoon when it was getting dark. It wasn't snowing enough, the air was full of moist raindrops, soaking the road, the vegetation, and the roof were all wet.

Although there was no cold wind or snow, the icy cold air slipped into the clothes along with the air, making people shiver from the bottom of their feet to the top of the sky.

In the dark night, many buildings were lit up, clustered together, somewhat similar to the stars in the sky, and all kinds of neon signboards on the side of the road were also lit up, feasting and feasting, showing a busy scene.As the Spring Festival approaches, even if the cold air is ten degrees lower, people's enthusiasm for shopping cannot be suppressed.

When the car drove to a pedestrian street, there was a sea of ​​people there, all kinds of fiery red decorations had filled the whole street, the small shops on the street were all open, playing loud music, desperately attracting customers, pedestrians Huddled together, although the mouth kept exhaling cold air, the joy on the face could not be resisted, for a moment, it was as bright as day.

The noisy sound from outside spread into the car. Qi Zheng looked at these familiar scenes and listened to the familiar local accent, his heart wandering outside suddenly settled down. Anxiously waiting at home.

Continue to gallop all the way, bypassing the noisy downtown area, the surroundings gradually become quiet and remote, the villages scattered in the night are only a little bit of light to attract attention, and the open farmland is full of straw piles tied up by people. It seemed a little lonely in the dark.The car drove through the muddy dirt road and through the narrow alleyway, occasionally there were a few alert dogs barking, but everything else was quiet.

But Qi Zheng's gaze did not relax for a moment. Finally, with the illumination of the high beams and the side of the road, he saw a stone bridge that was only one meter wide in the car. After that, it was his home.

The car stopped, Cao Jingxing raised his eyes and looked at Qi Zheng, Qi Zheng opened the car door clearly, and as soon as he got out of the car, Qi Zheng couldn't help being surrounded by the ubiquitous cold air, freezing for a long time. I was relieved.

The coldness in the south is quite different from the coldness in the north. In the north, there is overwhelming snow and bitter cold wind. The air can drop to minus [-] to [-] degrees at once. It is straightforward. If you block the wind and snow, you will block most of the cold; Coldness is more like a ubiquitous and pervasive cold breath, which quietly penetrates the clothes, and then forces the heat away bit by bit through the clothes. In the end, it feels that no matter how much you wear, it is useless, and it won’t cause heat all at once. Disabled, but after a long time, I started to feel cold from the inside out.

Qi Zheng had been outside for half a year. He was used to the wind and snow in the north, but he couldn't bear the soft humidity and cold in the south. He took a breath and got used to it.

Cao Jingxing wore a cashmere coat and a scarf, and he looked quite natural. He skillfully walked to the rear compartment, trying to take out the things the two of them had brought, but Qi Zheng pushed him away, saying: " Let me come, what kind of hero are you with your hands like that."

Cao Jingxing let out a rare "ha" smile, and a stream of white air floated from his lips, saying: "I am a gentleman."

Qi Zheng didn't even look at him. After neatly removing the things in the rear compartment, he closed the door. The man in the car backed out skillfully and drove towards the mainland next to him.

Cao Jingxing stood in front of the car and waved to him, saying, "Happy New Year, see you in the next year."

The car honked its horn lightly, making a crisp and loud sound, as if in response, then turned around and roared away.

Qi Zheng turned his head to look at Cao Jingxing with the big and small bags, and said, "Cross this bridge and you will arrive at my house. The road is full of mud, so be careful."

Cao Jingxing stepped on the soft soil, and all he could see was a large straw field. On the other side of the field were orderly residents, basically houses. How could he not be familiar with this scene?
