Chapter 11 Four, hit the road

Bai Jingjing made breakfast.She didn't seem to have slept well, her face was tired and her eyes were red.Her craftsmanship is far worse than that of Lao Yuan.The cooked rice seemed to have sand, and everyone ate it carefully. Through the glass, Zhu Neng saw the big wooden box.It's on the bed in the far left room, motionless. He peeked at the big wooden box again and again. He was afraid that the lid of the big wooden box would be opened suddenly, and the Niu Tongtong in a red raincoat would jump out, carrying a thick iron rod, trying to break his bones... Once, Zhu Neng saw the big wooden box shake.

At this moment, the dark clouds that were hanging quietly in the sky suddenly began to churn.From the depths of the dark clouds, a flash of lightning shot out suddenly. The chopsticks in Zhu Neng's hand fell to the ground. Bai Jingjing's chopsticks also fell off. She saw it too?She doesn't know?Isn't she an associate of Niu Tradition?Who is she?Why is she on the train?Why is she with Sun Kong and Lao Yuan?why she... Zhu Neng was at a loss. The world was extremely dull. Sun Kong and Lao Yuan each took a chicken thigh and gnawed on it.There was no meat left on the chicken thighs, and they still didn't give up. They gnawed and sucked, as if they wanted to suck out the bone marrow inside.

Lao Yuan became a little impatient, picked up the kitchen knife under his feet, and chopped the chicken bone in half with one stroke.He put the kitchen knife on the table casually. The kitchen knife was right in front of Zhu Neng, and he could get it as soon as he reached out.He even saw a line of English engraved on the kitchen knife - Made In Wangmazi. He glanced at them quickly. Lao Yuan was sucking the marrow from the chicken bone, Sun Kong was still gnawing on the chicken thigh without a single bit of meat, Bai Jingjing lowered her head, eating rice in small bites.None of them paid attention to Zhu Neng.

Zhu Neng's heart beat wildly—it was daytime, there must be someone outside.If he picked up the kitchen knife on the table, would they dare to stop him?Will he be able to rush out of this yard? Zhu Neng felt that he should give it a try. His hand slowly reached for the kitchen knife. Bai Jingjing suddenly stood up and said, "We're full, shall we go?" Zhu Neng retracted his hand immediately. Sun Kong and Lao Yuan also stood up, wiped their hands on their raincoats, and walked into the leftmost room.Soon, they lifted the wooden box out. The wooden box was stuffed into the trunk again.

Zhu Neng didn't know why they did this.Don't they think they don't know that cows are traditionally hidden in wooden boxes?probably not.At that time, Niu Tradition snored high-pitched and low-pitched, even an old lady could hear it standing outside the gate. Their every move is full of weirdness. Then, Zhu Neng was dragged into the car by Sun Kong and Lao Yuan. Lao Yuan was holding the kitchen knife in his hand, and wearing a raincoat that covered him tightly, he looked very much like a robber. Bai Jingjing didn't get in the car. She didn't know where to get some paper money, and some yellow paper with strange symbols on it, and knelt down in front of the big iron gate to burn it.

The sky is getting darker and darker, and the dark clouds above seem to fall down at any moment.There seems to be an omen hidden in the darkness, something will burst out suddenly. It's crying.Not one person, but a group of people, men and women, mostly women. The cries came from not far away, probably from the street behind.It seems that someone in someone's family happened to die, and the relatives were crying, which sounded miserable and gloomy. Bai Jingjing was muttering something while burning the paper.The sound penetrated into Zhu Neng's ears one by one, but he couldn't understand it.Not far away, a woman's voice was already hoarse from crying, and she was still crying with all her strength, her voice fluctuating.

Sun Kong and Lao Yuan seemed to be familiar with this desolate cry, and their expressions were indifferent. Finally, Bai Jingjing finished burning the paper, and she started the jeep. "Is there anyone selling chargers around here?" Zhu Neng asked. Bai Jingjing turned her head and looked at him. "I forgot to bring my charger and my phone died." Bai Jingjing glanced at Sun Kong and Lao Yuan before saying, "Yes, there is a family in front." "I'll go buy it." After speaking, Zhu Neng opened the door and wanted to get out of the car. Lao Yuan pointed to the front with a kitchen knife and said, "Let's go together."

Zhu Neng didn't dare to move. A few minutes later, the jeep stopped.In front was a gray yard with a closed black gate, with two brass tiger-head knockers on the door panel, rusted from lack of hands. A strange aroma wafted from the yard, and the people inside seemed to be having breakfast. Zhu Neng got out of the car and knocked on the door. Sun Kong and Lao Yuan followed behind, and Lao Yuan still held the kitchen knife in his hand. The door opened, and an old woman stood inside.The old woman was about sixty years old, wearing a dress of earth blue cloth, with neat clothes and a swollen waist.

The old woman glanced at Zhu Neng, then turned her gaze to Lao Yuan and Sun Kong, and said with a smile, "Here we come? My old man bought a pheasant, come in and have a drink together." Zhu Neng's heart trembled - they knew each other. Lao Yuan said: "Auntie is still so strong, we won't go in today, we have to hurry. Is there a mobile phone charger?" The old woman said, "Give me the phone." Zhu Neng took out his mobile phone and handed it to her.He touched the old woman's fingers, and it was cool.She took the phone, flipped through it for a while, and said, "There is no such charger." After speaking, she returned the phone to Zhu Neng.

Zhu Neng took it calmly.He knew, she would say so--they were accomplices. Lao Yuan said, "Then let's go." Bai Jingjing yelled in the car: "Zhu Neng! Buy me a bottle of mineral water." Zhu Neng said to the old woman, "I'll buy a bottle of mineral water." The old woman stared blankly at Zhu Neng, and murmured, "Your surname is Zhu?" Zhu Neng froze for a moment, but still nodded. The old woman opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something.At this time, Sun Kong coughed dryly.Zhu Neng turned his head, and he saw Sun Kong's nose flapping, with long yellow-brown nose hairs protruding from his nostrils.

"Mineral water is one yuan and five." The old woman said to Zhu Neng. Zhu Neng gave her ten yuan. The old woman took the money and walked away slowly.After a long time, about ten minutes, she came back with a bottle of mineral water and a handful of change. Her steps suddenly became heavy. Zhu Neng did not buy a charger, but bought a bottle of mineral water.And just like that, they set off.
