Chapter 13 sunset on the highway

We went ashore on an unknown beach, and Zhong Chubo took me to an inconspicuous house on the shore, and took out clean clothes for me to change into. "Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit." He smiled, "Don't be surprised, didn't I say that? I seldom go back to that house these days. This is my second home. Wherever I live, women's clothes are of course indispensable. But Don't mind, this set is newly bought and hasn't been worn yet, if you don't believe me, look at the brand." I lowered my head, and sure enough, the label hadn't been removed. It was "Ports", a French brand known for its conservative workwear image. I couldn't help but be more moved by the choice of today's white-collar workers.

He urged: "Why don't you change? After dressing up, we have to go." "Can you go out for a while?" "No." He flatly refused, "I said, you can't leave my sight for a minute." I got angry: "Then I'll walk away in wet clothes." "That won't work, it's too much attention." He half-compromised, "That's fine, I'll turn my back and you change your clothes, but don't turn off the lights. I want to watch your shadow, lest you play tricks." I was angry, but I had to obey. It was not easy to remove the wet clothes wrapped around my body. The more urgent I was, the faster it would be. I saw my slender figure projected on the opposite snow-white wall, and I couldn't help but burn up.When I took off only one layer of underwear, I couldn't do anything, so I had to put Baozi on the wet clothes indiscriminately.

Fortunately, Zhong Chubo finally did what he said and never looked back. I knew that he already knew that I had changed after seeing the projection, so I said softly, "Okay." He turned around, narrowed his eyes and looked at me appreciatively, and murmured in satisfaction: "This suit suits you very well." I blushed even more, but I couldn't help secretly admiring him. He was probably the only person who still had the mood to appreciate women's clothing at this moment. Then we were on our way again. Of course, he has another car here, which is the complete opposite of Zhang Yang's "Big Ben". It is an unremarkable off-white Grand Cherokee. It seems that he has known early on that one day he will end up with the fate of fleeing, so he has already prepared for it. All right, just waiting for the test to come.

"Those idiot policemen probably just called in the marine police at this time, and they are still looking for the whereabouts of the Mercedes-Benz in the sea?" He said, laughing and starting the car, "Now, the honeymoon trip officially begins!" When the car passed the expressway toll gate, I felt my palms were sweaty, and I looked at the staff longingly, hoping that he could understand the plea for help in my eyes, but the official toll collector didn't even look at me, just With the sound of counting in the computer, it repeats mechanically: "Ten yuan, thank you!"

With a sigh of resignation, I watched the endless stretch of highway unfold in front of my car. "The highway is really the greatest invention of mankind." Zhong Chubo said, "When you see it, you will feel that the vicissitudes of life are really nothing." "But if someone wants to chase us on the highway, wouldn't there be no chance to abandon the car and escape?" As soon as I said that, I immediately regretted it and wanted to bite my tongue. Why did I remind him? But Zhong Chubo didn't care, and replied easily: "Don't think they are too capable. They will first salvage at the bottom of the sea until dawn, and when they are sure that we are not buried in the bottom of the sea, they will organize a meeting, discuss, and make a report, and then in Dalian. The region has done a series of investigations, and then held meetings, discussed, and issued reports, and by the time the formalities have been completed and the arrest warrant issued, we have already arrived at the destination."

I knew he was telling the truth, and I couldn't help feeling disheartened. In just one hour, we have already walked out of Dalian. The chances of being found by the police are even slimmer. Zhong Chubo showed a fake ID and booked a standard room in the motel, but the waiter still didn’t ask any questions, let alone our relationship, and just collected the deposit and opened the room to welcome us in. I sighed, this out-and-out fox, he has already prepared everything, you have to be extremely careful in fighting with him, once you miss, you may hate him for life.Apart from cooperation, I have no other choice.

Tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep well. Zhong Chubo was not worried at all, and even snored slightly.I looked around, wondering if it was possible to knock him unconscious with a chair or a standing lamp, or to sneak out and ask the waiter to call the police. But before I could act my courage was gone.What I can think of, Zhonghu will definitely think of it too, there is no guarantee that he is not pretending to be asleep and trying to test me.If it fails, the consequences will be disastrous. I thought of the bottle of red wine that was broken in "Flowers in the Mirror", maybe that was the signal that God warned me to give up the investigation.If it weren't for my insistence on going my own way and being smart, I should be sitting opposite him now, enjoying the wine and steak, or dancing to the sound of music.However, just because he was obsessed with finding clues, a phone list exposed everything and disrupted everything.Only a few hours ago, I thought he was a suspect and I thought I was a policeman.In a blink of an eye, he became a fugitive, and I became his hostage.The world is unpredictable, and it is so weird that it is so dramatic that it is unbelievable.

I bit the corner of the quilt, thinking about Yiran heartbroken, Yiran, what is he doing now?He must be worried.Does he know that I am thinking of him and looking forward to him? Just keep your eyes open until dawn. When leaving the motel to check out, Zhong Chubo suddenly said to the waitress: "Do you know? I am a fugitive, and she is my hostage." I was startled, and hurried to see how the waiter said.Unexpectedly, she ignored it and just kept her head down. I couldn't help but say, "It's true!" The young woman raised her head and rolled my eyes: "Crazy."

Zhong Chubo said, "You don't have any sense of humor?" The woman finally grinned: "You want to make me laugh? It's very simple! The deposit is used as a tip, can you not refund it?" Zhong Chubo laughed out loud and gave me a meaningful look. I can't help but be thankful that I didn't act rashly last night. At this point, he had almost given up the will to ask for help, simply did not make any attempts, got into the car and fell asleep, making up for the sleep he missed last night. When I woke up, I had arrived at Shanhaiguan. Zhong Chubo said, "Do you want to go to Beidaihe?"

I was surprised: "Play?" "Yes, take a break." I followed him to the beach suspiciously, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd. Because the weather was still cold, there were not many people by the Beidai River, and the whole city seemed to be asleep, very deserted. The sea whispers softly, completely unaware of the tragedy that is happening on its shores. Zhong Chubo bent over and wanted to find a stone on the beach to float in the water, but there were fine white sand and delicate shells everywhere. He muttered dissatisfiedly: "Why is there not even a stone? It's really a women's beach!"

So far I believe that he really came to play, and I am even more surprised, he is really handsome, but it hurts me, there is no fun at all, I just want to cry in front of the sea, and I am full of fantasies about how to make a drifting bottle to inform my family. where to go. Zhong Chubo finally found a soda bottle cap to use as a shuttle, and threw it vigorously towards the water.But because the bottle cap was too light, it was discouraged after just jumping on the sea. I was very sad, but I didn't miss this opportunity to laugh at him, and laughed out loud on purpose. He frowned at me dissatisfied, and suddenly asked: "Last night, you dreamed and kept calling mom, what? You got homesick just after leaving home?" "It's not that I'm homesick, but I'm afraid that my family will miss me." One sentence aroused my thoughts, and my eye circles turned red again, "Mom will be very worried if I disappear suddenly like this." "It feels like someone is worried, isn't it very happy?" He laughed "hehe", but there was a trace of bitterness in his laughter, "Since I was twelve years old, I don't know what it's like to be cared about by others." "Where are your parents?" "Dead," he replied simply. "I was an orphan, raised as a helper." "And what about Xu Nongqin? She always cared about you, didn't she?" "Aqin?" He asked back. Unexpectedly, he was not angry, but rather emotional, as if he had spoken a thousand words.But in the end he didn't say anything, just nodded, "Let's go." When we set off again, it was already sunset. Although I have seen countless sunsets, after rain, on sunny days, in early spring, and in midsummer, I bet that I have never seen a more beautiful sunset than tonight in my life. Such a beautiful, poignant and tragic swan song. Red, but not dazzling, not the kind of red that "everything is always spring", nor the red that "red apricot branches are full of spring", but the kind of red that "turns to gray when it is red", as delicate as cream The same color, infinitely sad, stings the hearts of passers-by. The Grand Cherokee ran towards the sunset, and rushed there, just like Kua Fu chasing the sun. But such a speed still couldn't keep the setting sun from sinking. That bit of bright red is like tearful eyes, looking at it reluctantly, reluctant to give up and helpless, kept lowering, lowering, finally blinked slightly, tears trembled, eyes closed gently, leaving only clouds in the sky Rushang is the last attachment to the earth.It seems that the beauty has gone, but the fragrance still exists. My heart also dropped.Leaning against the car window, I can see mountains, rivers, rice fields, and deserts all passing by in front of my eyes. The vicissitudes of life are unpredictable due to the transformation of time and space.Maybe, this will be the last sunset I see; maybe, I will drive into the time tunnel, and when I am finally rescued and return to my parents, I find that their hair has turned gray, and because of that, there are already groups of children. met. When it was completely dark, Zhong Chubo stopped the car and was still at the motor hotel on the side of the highway, registering with a fake ID card. He was not in a hurry to hurry, Xiao Xing stayed overnight, completely like a real trip. Even drop down at a certain scenic spot from time to time and have fun. I became more and more anxious and desperate.The distance from Dalian is getting farther and farther, and the chance of being rescued is getting slimmer and slimmer.I don't know what will greet me in front of me. When will this cursed "tour" end? At noon on the third day, we arrived in Xi'an. Zhong Chubo, a big player, will naturally not let go of such a tourist attraction. Anyway, I couldn't find a way to report the news, so I just had fun, went with the situation, and took out my interest to go sightseeing. Terracotta Warriors, Huaqing Pool, Ancient City Wall, White Horse Temple, Big and Small Wild Goose Pagoda, Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor... In Qinglong Temple, the Chinese monk Huiguo and the Japanese monk Kukai talked to each other. The Jingyun Bell in the bell tower is not what it used to be. The Fourth Cross Street of the Imperial City, and the North Courtyard Gate once accommodated Cixi who fled... There are active terracotta warriors and horses walking all over the street. If a family finds out something, they will say it is Qin Feng Han Yun. Oncoming snacks carry Yu Youren's calligraphy. There is no charcoal seller. Vegetables, xuns with Banpo patterns are only sold for five yuan each... Shuyuanmen, Huajue Lane, Chrysanthemum Garden, Luomashi, Jianguo Road, Dalianhuachi Street... There are all kinds of snacks in Damai City. Changfaxiang’s dumplings are like handicrafts. Jiasanjia’s soup dumplings are high-quality and cheap. "Actually, it should be "steamed meat"... We had so much fun, we even took lots of "click-and-drink" souvenirs.There has never been a place where I feel that history is so close to reality, as if I can turn into a street and knock on a door anytime and anywhere to go to the prosperity of the Han and Tang Dynasties.Every time I look at a place, I can't help but think that I must tell Yiran and Wuyou what I have seen and heard in the future. Both of them have never been to Xi'an? When I think like this, I will lose my mind for a moment, and I can't help but start planning how to break free from Zhong Chubo and run to the crowd to ask for help, but what if I can't escape?Haven't you seen many hooligans on TV and magazines committing crimes in broad daylight, but no one comes to the rescue?Or if he told people that I was a lunatic who had just escaped from a mental hospital, and that we were a young couple who quarreled and had trouble, who would people believe?Even if someone stopped me in the street and said she was being hunted down, I didn't believe it, so how could I make others believe me? I hesitated again and again, but finally I didn't have the courage to attack suddenly. Originally, he had been guessing where the next stop would be, but Zhong Chubo did not return to the highway, but took off the license plate and carefully put it in his handbag, and then drove the car into a garage. I saw through the window that he was talking to the factory owner, and turning around to point at me from time to time.After a while like this, Zhong Chubo seemed to have reached an agreement with the factory owner, and came over with a smile on his face and asked me to get out of the car and open the way. I was surprised: "What about the car?" "sold." "sold?" "Yes. I told him it was a black car, and I was eager to sell it. He immediately gave me 10,000 yuan for the deal." "That's okay too?" "Of course." Zhong Chubo smiled, "Actually, I don't care about the 10,000 yuan, but if I don't sell it, I can't think of where to throw the car. I'm afraid it will attract more attention. Tell him it's a black car, and he himself They will find a way to sell the stolen goods. This kind of thing is very common." I was speechless, thinking that I was well-informed, but only after going through this experience did I realize that I really know too little about this world. On the other hand, I guess the destination is almost here, so he wants to sell the car.Could it be that he will stay in Xi'an City from now on?Although it is said that Da Yin lives in the city, it is too risky. It is said that although he is a bold fox, he is very careful, so he is not really confident to such an arrogant level, right? When passing by a hardware store, Zhong Chubo went in and bought a bottle of sulfuric acid. I was shocked, thinking he didn't want to disfigure me to cover up my identity, right?No wonder he dared to settle down in Xi'an! This night, lying in the hotel no matter what, I couldn't sleep again. A few times I thought that I would die anyway, so why not try my best, run out if I can run, and make an earth-shattering scene if I can't run, wake up all the people in the hotel, and let the murderer expose his whereabouts. Just about to act, Zhong Chubo woke up, turned over and sat up, and took out the bottle of sulfuric acid from his bag. I almost screamed, looking at the direction of the window out of the corner of my eye, thinking that as long as he takes a step closer, I will jump from here, anyway, it is only the second floor, I can't die, it's better to break my leg than burn my face. But then he took out the two license plates and went into the bathroom. It turned out that the sulfuric acid was only used to destroy the license plate numbers. I sighed inwardly, only to feel a chill on my back, and I was already sweating profusely. After a false alarm, he was extremely tired and soon fell asleep.In the dream, I saw myself coming home, and my mother kept crying while holding me, and kept asking, "How are you, daughter? How are you?" "Mom! Mom!" I cried, tears streaming down my face. When I woke up, I found that Zhong Chubo was looking at me thoughtfully, with a very strange look in his eyes. I turned my back and continued to sob intently, secretly wary. After dawn, Zhong Chubo rented a taxi and directed the driver to travel southward.The road became more remote and desolate, and every time he passed a snack shop, he would stop to buy some groceries. I guess he is reluctant to buy a lot at once because he is afraid of attracting the attention of the shopkeeper, and he is more and more sure that the destination is approaching, so he becomes so careful, not only stop and go, but also change a taxi every other way car. The road was covered with loess, the windows of the taxi were quickly covered with dust, and the driver's words gradually became difficult to understand.But Zhong Chubo seemed to know every dialect very well, and talked with the driver in local dialect from time to time.Listening to those difficult and difficult conversations, I couldn’t help wondering if they were making a deal, maybe they would sell me like a car to a stupid son of a family in the mountains who couldn’t afford a wife, as he said: In fact, I don't care how much I sell it for, but I don't know where to bury it if I kill it. I am afraid of accidents and sell it to others.God! But fortunately, their conversations are very short every time, and they don't look like they are doing big business.And soon, we stopped in Ziyang Town. After Zhong Chubo dismissed the driver, he said to me: "I need to eat more for this meal. After this meal, I probably won't be able to eat a decent meal for a long time." Only then did I know that the destination was Qinling, and I couldn't help but secretly complained, would I want to be a savage for the rest of my life? The two people from the city went to live in the deep mountains and old forests. It didn't take long, a year or so, and the disfigurement was not much different from the disfigurement of sulfuric acid. At that time, even if there were a lot of arrest warrants, no one would recognize that I was Lu Chen'er up. Or maybe he wants to cross the Qinling Mountains to go to a remote mountain village. It must be such a backward and barbaric place. I don’t know if the language can be communicated. There must be no telephone, and the means of transportation must be lacking. You really sold me, I'm afraid I won't be able to find the way out of the mountain even if my legs are broken. While thinking wildly, Zhong Chubo suddenly glanced at me and said, "I'm really homesick, so I can make a phone call to report that I'm safe." I froze and could hardly believe my ears. Zhong Chubo didn't look at me, and said lightly: "Go further in, and there will be no phone calls. Be careful, don't talk for more than 20 seconds, maybe a policeman has installed a bug." I was overjoyed, fearing that he would repent, I immediately ran to the phone and dialed Wuyou's mobile phone: "Wuyou, I'm Chen'er." "Chen'er." Bi Duan yelled worry-free, completely losing her previous calmness, and through the long phone line, I seemed to see her wide-eyed expression of astonishment.Time is limited, I can't say much, just a brief report: "Tell my mother that I am safe, and let her not worry about me, we traveled all the way, had a good time, lived very comfortably, and we are eating... " Zhong Chubo pointed to his watch and ordered in a low voice: "Tell her that we are in Fujian." I nodded and imitated my tongue obediently: "We have now arrived in Wuyi Mountain, Fujian Province, and we are drinking Wuya Maojian with the fifteenth water in the world." After finishing speaking, I obediently hung up the phone. Zhong Chubo was very surprised: "I thought you would call your mother..." But soon he figured out the answer by himself, "Twenty seconds is probably not enough for the old man to cry, I'm afraid I can't whisper anything. Your performance is very good, I didn't say anything I shouldn't have said. You are wise." He was wrong. The reason why I didn’t call my mother but gave Wuyou was because she was calm enough and thoughtful enough to understand the mystery in my words——Wuyi Mountain is rich in rock tea, which belongs to the oolong tea family, and "Wuhao" and "Maojian" are two classifications of green tea. I deliberately mixed them together to remind Wuyou of the fallacy of this sentence. the real location. There is a saying in the language of tea: "Tang cooks Song Dian", making tea is the tea-drinking habit of Tang Dynasty. It is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, and Shaanxi Province is also rich in two kinds of teas, "Qinba Wuhao" and "Ziyang Maojian", among which "Ziyang Maojian" has been listed as one of the famous Chinese teas since the Qing Dynasty. In addition, Lu Yu divided the water in the world into 20 grades in the "Tea Classics": Lushan Kangwang Valley Gulian Spring Water is the first, Wuxi Huishan Temple Stone Spring Water is the second, Qizhou Lanxi Shixia Water is the third... West of Wuguan, Shangzhou Luoshui fifteenth. When several clues are connected together, my location is ready to be revealed, which is in the Shangluo area of ​​Shaanxi.
