Taxi at night

Chapter 128, Ambush crisis

After Lu Ren spent a lot of effort to catch up with the truck, he was surprised to find that the driver was an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy, with earphones plugged in, listening to pop music while driving, very comfortable.

The rest had nothing to do with Lu Ren. Two drivers, one old and one young, jumped out of the truck. They seemed to be father and son. With dry powder fire extinguishers in their hands, they rushed over to put out the fire in a panic.At this time, the fire had already ignited the canvas awning at the back, and spread to the roof of the car along the tied ropes, which seemed to be a prairie fire.

How could the two dare to be negligent, and they immediately divided into two groups. The boy jumped into the car and put out the fire from above, while the older man stood behind the car and worked together to extinguish the fire in less than a minute.

When the two turned their heads to look for the kind-hearted person, Lu Ren had long since disappeared.

The worse the business is, the easier it is for people to get sleepy.Lu Ren went all the way back to the city, but there was really no business to do, so he parked the car in front of a hotel, planning to sit and wait.

Before he knew it, Lu Ren gradually fell asleep, sleeping very soundly, probably because he was too tired and didn't have a good rest during this period.

There was a rapid knock on the window, Lu Ren opened his eyes and looked out. Standing beside the car were three young people of different heights. The youngest was no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, and the oldest was no more than seventeen or eighteen. It's just a bear child who never returns home.When taking a car at this time, either the money is spent or something is urgent.

"Boss, go to Qikong Bridge." As soon as he got on the bus, the oldest boy said to Lu Ren, while the other two younger boys sat in the back without saying a word. It does not conform to the lively and active personality of young people.

The Seven Arch Bridge is located in the southeast of the city. It is an ancient bridge with a history of nearly 200 years. It spans a river. Because there are seven bridge holes of different sizes, the locals call it "Seven Arch Bridge".

The shape of this bridge is quite similar to the famous Zhaojia Bridge, but of course it is much smaller.The bridge deck was very narrow, about two meters long. Lu Ren's taxi had to slow down if he wanted to pass, and if he was not careful, he would scrape against the stone edges on both sides.

Seven Arch Bridge is about 25 kilometers away from the city. It is a remote town with a lot of people and little land. Compared with some other towns, it is poorer.

Due to the large number of people, a town middle school was built near the Qikong Bridge.At the beginning of the year, Lu Ren accompanied Tang Xue to inspect the school. The school's hardware facilities were obviously behind Laomiaoxiang Middle School, so Tang Xue was not selected, but chose Laomiaoxiang Middle School, which is closer to the city.

These three children are undoubtedly students of Qikongqiao Middle School, and their accents are very similar.

"Are the three of you going?" Lu Ren raised his vigilance after pulling three teenagers of unknown origin in the middle of the night.

"Yes! We are together." The big boy sitting in the front row said simply, he seemed to be the leader among the three, and the two boys in the back row were silent.

The business was not good tonight, and Lu Ren was unwilling to give up the business he got, so he set off.

On the way, the older boy talked to Lu Ren from time to time, but unexpectedly aroused Lu Ren's vigilance.

"Boss, is this car yours?" The big boy asked, his eyes flickering in the darkness.

"Oh, it would be great if this car was mine. I'm also a poor man, working for the boss, but I wish I could have a taxi, so that I don't have to work hard in the middle of the night to make a living."

"You're right, those bosses who work late at night usually work during the day." The big boy seemed to understand, and echoed.

"That's right! Don't talk about staying up late, just like tonight, business is not good at all, no one takes the car, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to the boss tomorrow." Lu Ren intentionally concealed his identity, describing himself as A poor migrant worker, his business is not good and he is struggling.

"Master, where are you from? The accent doesn't sound like a local?" The big boy asked intentionally or unintentionally. This question is actually very important.

The subsequent development of the situation also proved this point. Lu Ren's correct answer obviously avoided a disaster.

Lu Ren hesitated for a moment, and then pretended to be proud and said: "You heard it. Haha... Actually, you are not the only one who asks this question, many local people think so too. Actually? I am a real local, it's just this matter It's a bit complicated to say."

Lu Ren intentionally left an opening and led the boy to continue to inquire.Sure enough, the big boy asked curiously, "Let's hear it."

"It's very common to say. Our city is divided into four blocks, one for the east, one for the east, one for the north, one for the south, and one for the north. I live in the North District, and there are seven middle schools there... Do you know?" Let's talk again when I'm dizzy.

"It's the Seventh High School, right?" The big boy really believed it.

"Yes, that's the middle school. I have always had a bad reputation in school. I didn't study hard, and I often got into group fights with my classmates. In the third year of junior high school, I used an air gun to break a classmate's head. As a result, I lost a lot of money and was also arrested. School expulsion."

"If you dare to do this, then you are quite courageous." The big boy mumbled in his mouth half-believing.Lu Ren didn't care about this, he had to say it, believe it or not, and tried his best to harass people like mischievous people.

"It will be easier in the future. After dropping out of school, I didn't want to stay at home anymore, so I went to work outside and didn't come back until the year before last... So, my accent became a bit confusing, and because of this, people often doubted my accent. I don’t think I’m a local. Hehe...Are you saying it’s ridiculous?" The big boy laughed dryly when he heard this, and fell silent for a moment.

The two little boys in the back suddenly became active at this time, chatting in a whisper, trying to keep their voices down so that Lu Ren could not hear them.

"Originally, I worked outside and saved a little money. But I like to make friends. In less than two years, all the money in my hand has been spent. I really have no choice but to continue to work for others. Speaking of it, How many friends do I have at the Seven Arch Bridge, I don’t know, have you heard about it?”

"Uh, what's the name? Tell me, we all know the famous ones."

"Well, maybe we really know each other, for example..." Lu Ren mentioned three or four names in one breath, which is not just nonsense, and one of them really matched the number, and the three children nodded to show their recognition.

"It seems that what you said is really true! Well, master, stop at the bridgehead! Let's get off here." The older boy said suddenly when the taxi was approaching the bridgehead.

As soon as Lu Ren stopped the car, the two boys behind immediately jumped out of the car and ran away.Lu Ren was startled, and quickly looked at the big boy, and saw that he also opened the car door, and ran in another direction without saying a word... It turned out that he met a brat who didn't pay for the car.

Lu Ren secretly exclaimed that he was lucky, but he jumped out of the car and chased after him for a while, until the three children were nowhere to be seen.
