Chapter 117 Cause of the accident
I went to the bus to pick up my luggage and left the bus station directly.
Generally speaking, there are many taxi drivers at bus terminals, and some of them run long distances.
If you gather enough people to go to a destination, and then divide the fare equally among the four people, it is also called carpooling.
This method of carpooling is not common outside, but it is not uncommon in Maoxi County.
I asked someone about it and found a taxi to the airport.
It costs 250 for a chartered car and 80 per person for a shared car.
The price is still very reasonable, only thirty yuan more than a bus.
I happily sat in the car and put my luggage in the trunk.
They were all worthless things. They were found from my house. The ax was on my person. As for the incense burner, I put it in the suitcase.
I plan to check it in directly later, but who knows if it will be allowed to be taken directly on the plane.
At this moment, there were three people missing in the car, and I subconsciously looked at the two people riding in the car together.
He looked about ten years older than me, so we should know each other.
But there was no communication. I could tell that they knew each other because the man next to me brought out two ID cards when he was taking out something.
Just as I was observing these two people carefully, the driver pulled over another passenger. When I looked up, I saw Zhang Ning standing cautiously at the door.
His eyes were full of grievance.
"Brother Su, can I take this car? If not, I'll ask others."
Zhang Ning's words can be said to have caused the remaining three people to focus on me.
The driver was also a veteran. He subconsciously misunderstood the relationship between the two of us and tried to smooth things over. "Young lovers are bickering. Boys should be more open-minded. Why are you trying to scare your girlfriend by saying it's okay? For such a cute little girl, you just Don’t worry about letting her ride alone in the car?”
I was speechless by the driver and couldn't say anything else. I nodded and asked Zhang Ning to sit next to me.
Zhang Ning looked like he had just cried, his eyes were still red, and he looked extremely pitiful.
"Brother Su, don't ignore me. I'll tell you everything, okay?"
There were other people in the car, so I couldn't say much, so I nodded stiffly.
I was subconsciously rejecting this matter.
The driver put Zhang Ning's suitcase away, sat back in the cab, started the car, and left the passenger terminal in a twist and turn.
Zhang Ning lowered his head and fiddled with his cell phone, not talking to me.
I didn't take her seriously at first, and now I just let her do whatever she wants.
After a while, just when I was drifting off to sleep, a text message suddenly came to my phone.
I clicked on it and saw the phone number from which the text message came.
It was sent by Zhang Ning. After hesitating for a moment, I clicked on the message directly, intending to see what she wanted to say to me.
Unexpectedly, she was also a down-to-earth girl and posted a long list of words.
After reading it, I understood what happened. Zhang Ning was deceived by her family into coming back. Her parents bought her a round-trip air ticket and let her go home for one day.
Something was not right at her house last night. The smoke was all caused by burning paper and lighting incense.
Her parents brought back a strange Buddha statue from nowhere and asked her to worship it with blood.
Everyone knows that the Buddha is not contaminated with meat and fish, so why are people worshiping him with blood?
When I saw this sentence, I was basically sure that there must be something wrong with Zhang Ning's family.
Not only is there something wrong with her parents, but the Buddha statue their family invited back may not be a simple Buddha statue either.
No wonder Zhang Ning's yin energy is so heavy. Last night at the airport, it might be because of his low luck.
She was implicated by me again, so her own yang energy was reduced.
But today, the sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly, but the yin energy on her body is still so heavy, which must be related to this blood offering.
The rest of the content is meaningless. It is probably that the bus accident was concealed by the county.
The passenger transport company had deep pockets and the compensation to the casualties was satisfactory, so no one said anything.
And she didn't dare to say it just now because her father was a small leader in the county. If this matter got serious, her father would definitely be the unlucky person in the end.
I don't know if this is a case of bending the law for personal gain. It stands to reason that the families of the casualties have already received compensation. It doesn't matter whether this information is known to others.
So why did the county hide this information? Or maybe there are other problems here.
The people above have been involved, so this is not something I can be curious about. I still know this very well.
At the end, Zhang Ning asked me cautiously if I was still angry with her.
I raised my head to look at Zhang Ning and saw a wronged look on her face.
"It's okay, I won't tell others, but you should come back less often in the future. You also know the situation at your home."
What I said was very vague. Except for Zhang Ning, who could understand what I meant, others would probably think that the situation in Zhang Ning's family was complicated.
I didn't rest all night, and I was really tired now, so I put my head on the backrest.
After a while, I fell asleep.
I actually saw Uncle Li in my sleep, and he looked similar to what I saw last night.
I was holding a huangpizi in my hand. When I saw Uncle Li, I subconsciously felt that he was very similar to huangpizi now.
"Thank you for the cigarette today, let's go."
Uncle Li asked me to leave quickly, but before I could talk to him, I felt a splitting headache and woke up from my sleep.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that except for the driver, the other three people looked at me with confusion.
Zhang Ning's eyes were still a little worried.
What happened when I fell asleep? Why did they look at me like this?
"Brother Su, you were so scary just now. You were panting and shaking so much that we thought you were sick."
Zhang Ning asked in confusion. I rubbed my head and leaned back on the seat.
I just dreamed of Uncle Li. He told me to leave quickly. This matter must not be told to others.
After all, Eryang Village is now almost a taboo in Maoxi County. Even if I talk about it now, it will not have any results.
"I had a nightmare. Don't take it to heart. I'm sorry for scaring you."
I said politely. If Zhang Ning was the only one who noticed my situation, I wouldn't be so embarrassed.
But the other two also looked at me, and the driver also looked back at me from time to time.
Regardless of whether they are really worried about me or afraid that I will die in the car, at least they are thinking about me.
The driver suddenly turned around and said to me, "Little brother, the situation just now was not quite right, but if you say it's okay, it's okay. If you are carsick, just continue to sleep. I am driving steadily."
I nodded and said nothing, mainly because I didn't want to chat with him.
