The Last Train to Hell

"My name is Zhang Ning, and my family is from Maoxi County."

The girl suddenly introduced herself, which made me so nervous that I didn't know where to put my hands.

I scratched my head and suddenly remembered that my family is also from Maoxi County. After all, we are still fellow villagers.

"My family is also from Maoxi County, but it's Eryang Village below Maoxi County. My name is Su Ren."

As courtesy, I also told Zhang Ning my name.

She looks a few years younger than me, in her early twenties, probably still in college.

It's just that the university isn't on vacation yet, so why did she go home?

After all, it’s just a stranger whom I met by chance, so I can’t ask too many questions.

Nothing weird happened from the time the plane took off to the time it landed.

After leaving the airport, Zhang Ning still followed me.

"Brother Su, we are both going back to Maoxi County. Why don't we go together and be companions?"

After leaving the airport, I planned to take a Fengdu taxi. It would inevitably be inconvenient if I took Zhang Ning with me.

I hesitated for a moment, thinking that Zhang Ning was a girl, and it might not be safe to go back to Maoxi County alone at this point.

In the past few years, Maoxi County's social security has been ranked last in the country.

"I'll take a taxi in a moment. When you get to Maoxi County, go down. Don't tell others how you came back, and don't mention me."

After all, I was still in a hurry to go back. It was impossible for me not to rent a car in Fengdu and choose the bus instead.

Zhang Ning nodded in understanding. When she saw the taxi that suddenly appeared, she froze.

She looked at me blankly, and finally grabbed my arm, pulled me behind, and sat with her.

The driver was not an old acquaintance of mine this time. He didn’t seem to be easy to talk to. After asking me where I wanted to go, he started the taxi directly.

"Young man, Maoxi County is not close to here, so you have to pay extra. Remember to give me the address."

The driver handed me his business card. I looked at the address on it and put it directly into my trouser pocket.

"Master, listen to it when you get to Maoxi County and put it down for her."

The master nodded and glanced at Zhang Ning in the rearview mirror.

He said meaningfully, "Little girl, you are very good-looking. Wherever you live, ask your family to come downstairs to pick you up. Maoxi County has not been very peaceful recently, and Master Wu Chang has been here many times."

Zhang Ning didn't understand what he meant, but I didn't understand. It alarmed Master Wu Chang, so it was definitely not a small matter.

It's just that something happened that could alert Master Wu Chang several times?

Since Zhang Ning was here, I didn't dare to ask for fear of scaring her.

Zhang Ning looked confused.

"It takes four or five hours to get back to Maoxi County from the airport. Is it too early to come down now?"

The driver didn't expect that Zhang Ning didn't know that he was taking a Fengdu taxi.

He turned around and smiled at me without saying anything.

I figured it wouldn't take long, and I didn't want Zhang Ning to ask too many questions, so I hurriedly said to her, "Stop asking, just call and give the master your home address."

Zhang Ning looked at me with confusion, and finally nodded and called home first.

"Hey, Dad, come down and pick me up quickly. I'm almost home. Just downstairs."

Zhang Ning spoke to his family gently and gently. I couldn't hear clearly what his father said, but I was also envious in my heart.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Ning told the driver the address very honestly and looked at me shyly.

"Brother Su, can you tell me your contact information?"

I hesitated for a moment, feeling that I felt a little sorry for Bai Xian by telling her my contact information.

But they may not be interested in me. They are college students, and I am a driver with no education.

How can people like me?

"Okay."

I agreed immediately and gave Zhang Ning my phone number.

Then my phone rang, and I thought it was Jinsuocheng looking for me.

I didn't expect it to be an unfamiliar number. Just when I was hesitating to answer the phone, the phone suddenly hung up.

"Brother Su, I called you just now. Are you anxious to go back? If we can go back together, okay? I'm scared alone."

Zhang Ning discussed it with me carefully. Seeing the prayer in her eyes, I really wanted to agree to her decision.

But I plan to come back tomorrow. If nothing unexpected happens, I can drive out normally tomorrow night.

I always feel that it is not appropriate to ask Master Lin to replace me. If he could replace me, I am afraid that Master Lin would no longer need me as a dragster.

"If there are no accidents, I plan to go back tomorrow. After all, I have to drive out at night."

I still chose to reject Zhang Ning. If she didn't come with me, she wouldn't encounter weird things.

If you have to be with me, you might encounter those spirits.

There is no light in my world, so why should I bring her in?

Zhang Ning refused to give up and wanted to say something else. Unexpectedly, the driver braked and stopped the car suddenly.

Turning around, he said to Zhang Ning with a sly smile, "Little girl, it's time to get off the bus when we get there."

Zhang Ning looked back out the window and found that the environment outside the window had become the place where she had lived for many years.

How could it be so fast? I saw this meaning in Zhang Ning's eyes.

But I didn't mean to explain to her. Instead, I looked her in the eyes and said seriously, "The plane took off early, so you came back early. Come on."

Zhang Ning nodded confusedly, opened the door, and got out of the car with his luggage.

I saw a middle-aged couple take the luggage from her hand, and then surrounded her upstairs.

Zhang Ning seemed to look back, but was pushed into the corridor by her mother.

"Young man, you are very lucky. That girl obviously likes you."

I shook my head. I didn't think Zhang Ning would like me. Maybe she just thought I saved her.

She brought her out of the darkness, so she wanted to get closer to me.

"She is a college student. She can't find any good people. I am just a poor boy. I don't even have a home. How can she like me?"

The women in the village said that if you marry a man, you will have clothes and food.

For someone like me, it's good enough if one person is full and the whole family is not hungry.

The driver didn't say much, just started the car and took me back to the village.

It's been almost three years since I left the village, and I haven't been back once in these three years.

Fortunately, I have lived here for more than ten years, and the village has not changed much.

So after the car stopped at the entrance of the village, I still found the old house of the blind old man and me with my luggage smoothly.

The old house, which had not been inhabited for many years, became increasingly dilapidated and looked shaky.

I took out the key from my pocket and opened the door.

I stood at the door for a long time, and when I felt it was about time, I carried my luggage and walked into the yard.
