After we arrived in Changshou, we changed trains. It was already six o'clock in the evening when we arrived in Fengdu, and it was completely dark. I had heard that Chongqing was hot, but I didn't expect it to be so hot. Even though it was completely dark, it was still very stuffy, especially for the fat guy, who was sweating profusely because of his fat body.
"Fatty, it's not that serious. Although it's very hot and humid now, you don't have to dress so exaggeratedly." Kaizi looked at the fat man's clothes and said with a smile. Now the fat man's clothes were completely wet, and he felt like he had just come out of the shower.
"It's too hot in Chongqing." The fat man fanned himself with his hands and said, "I should have not come here earlier. The temperature during the day must be at least 38 degrees."
"I have a joke here. Do you want to hear it?" Glasses, who had suddenly become silent, suddenly said something, and then continued: "A few days ago, I saw a report in the news that a certain place will usher in the highest temperature in 20 years, 38 degrees Celsius..."
"Is this funny?" I asked Glasses. To be honest, I didn't find it funny. Kaizi and Fatty Cao looked at Glasses as if he were an alien. Their eyes seemed to say, "Is this guy treating the news broadcast as a joke?"
Glasses pushed his glasses and said, "In Chongqing, the temperature is basically 38 degrees every day in summer, and occasionally it will be 40 degrees." Isn't this news funny? Glasses looked at us in confusion.
Kaizi just laughed twice at the edge of his glasses, "Haha," and then said, "Brother, I tried hard, but I just can't laugh."
"The wisdom of mortals." Glasses pushed his glasses and continued walking forward. "Yes, you are the wisdom of God, and we are all mortals." Kaizi said from behind.
Speaking of Fengdu, we were unfamiliar with the place. Even Yan Jing, who was from Chongqing, had never been there. However, he had a book fan in Fengdu, and he called his fan to pick us up.
Speaking of which, I hadn't thought that there would be such a god-like existence as Glasses and Book Fans. We agreed to meet by the river. In fact, Fengdu is not big. It is just like a larger county town. It is a city built on both sides of the river.
We waited by the river for about ten minutes, and then a young man wearing a black T-shirt and camouflage pants waved to us and ran over. He looked about seventeen or eighteen years old.
What we didn't expect was that when he saw Glasses, his mouth opened wide and he kept shaking: "Z Da? I finally see you." Then the young man rushed up and hugged Glasses, rubbing against him. He stuck out his tongue and stared at Glasses' face, as if he wanted to lick it. As expected, I knew that Glasses' book fans would not be normal people. As for the Z Da he mentioned, it seemed to be Glasses' pen name, called zhttty.
Glasses said calmly: "The wisdom of ordinary people." I found that he liked to say this sentence very much, just like a monk saying Amitabha, it has become a catchphrase. When the young man heard this sentence, he screamed like those star-chasers who were hugged by their idols: "Z Da Da, I love you."
Kaizi and I are speechless about this fanatical book fan. He doesn't see the disgusting look of Yan Jing at ordinary times. He just says some pretentious words when he goes out to save face.
Later, the young man took us to his home, which was in a residential area not far from the river. His parents were working in other places, and he was the only one at home. He asked us to call him Daran.
Daran was very enthusiastic. According to him, he contacted Yanjing after seeing Yanjing say in a book that he would come to Fengdu. Daran's house is quite big, probably more than 200 square meters, but there is only one computer. Yanjing's eyes lit up when he saw the computer. Since we were afraid that he would be busy typing when he came out this time, we unanimously disagreed with him bringing the computer out.
Glasses rushed into the room and locked the door, which scared Da Ran and he asked, "What's wrong with Z? Why are you so excited?"
"It's okay. I just wanted to write so hard." I knocked on the door and yelled, "Hey, Glasses, there's a ghost in there. If you don't come out, don't come out when you encounter a ghost."
"Even if someone comes to disturb me while I'm typing, I will kill him." The man with glasses inside yelled at us.
"You are worthy of being my idol, so dedicated." Daran said at the side.
I thought, he is still dedicated, but his glasses are like that, so we can't say anything, so I ran to the living room to watch TV, but all TV shows nowadays are the same, completely boring, and I get bored after watching it for a while. I was bored, and seeing that there were just four of us who could get together to play mahjong, Da Ran suggested that we play mahjong together. You know what, his house has quite a complete range of entertainment facilities.
Actually, I am not very good at playing mahjong, and winning depends entirely on luck. I lost a lot in a short time, but I didn’t care too much. After playing for about an hour, I felt bored. Actually, isn’t this nonsense? If you keep losing playing mahjong, you will also feel bored. On the contrary, if you keep winning, I believe you will not feel that time is long no matter how long you play.
Since I was so bored, I caught up with Da Ran and started chatting with him.
"Daran, what fun places are there in Fengdu?" I asked casually.
"Fun places in Fengdu? I feel like there's nothing fun to do in Fengdu. I find it pretty boring. If I have to say something good, it's just a ghost town. But I've been to that ghost town more often than to public toilets. I'm tired of it." Daran said while touching the mahjong.
"Hey, Daran, since Fengdu is called the Ghost Town, does that mean there are really ghosts? Have you ever seen one?" I asked.
"There are absolutely no ghosts. If there really are ghosts in the world, then Fengdu, which is called the Ghost City, must have a lot of ghosts. But I haven't even seen a fart, and neither have other people. If someone has seen one, Fengdu is such a small place, but it would have been a hot topic in just one day." Although Da Ran said that he didn't believe in ghosts in the world, he seemed to be very interested in the topic.
"That's different. There are so many unpredictable things in the world, what do you think?" I said with a smile. In fact, how many people in modern times believe in ghosts? Even if there are strange things, the news will generally be blocked by the country, and you will not know about it.
"Yeah, that's hard to say, but since I haven't encountered it, it's not true. I'll believe it when I encounter it." Da Ran said, staring at the mahjong.
At this time, Glasses came out to go to the toilet. When he passed by us, he glanced at us and said, "Speak softly, aren't you afraid of attracting ghosts?" Then he went into the toilet, which was near the door.
Suddenly he shouted calmly: "It's a mess, haha, give me money, give me money."
I smiled. Daran was quite lucky. We had been playing for such a long time that I was basically the only one losing. For example, out of 100 points, Daran won 70, while Kaizi and Fatty Cao won about 15 each.
Da Ran also came out of the bathroom at this time. He took a look and was about to go back to the room. Suddenly, he stood at the door without moving. He was stunned. When I took out the money and was about to give it to Da Ran, he suddenly yelled, "Ghost!"
Then he fainted. When I heard this, my body trembled. Could it be that a ghost came at this time? Without thinking about anything else, I ran to the backpack on the sofa. All my "stuff" was in it.
"Fuck, a ghost is disturbing me from winning money." It was Daran who said this. At this time, I had already run to the backpack. Only then did I realize that when I heard Glasses yelling that there was a ghost, I took the money back and did not give it to him. Kaizi and Fatty Cao naturally took their money back when they saw this, and said: You still want money at this time, go save your idol.
At this time, Da Ran also reacted, ran towards the glasses, and looked towards his room, his face also pale.
"You guys run first, I'll stay behind to cover your retreat." I saw that Daran had the same reaction, and I knew that this matter couldn't be false, so I said to them decisively.
Originally, I thought they would be polite and then back off, but unfortunately, I didn't expect them to just say, "Hold on." And then those bastards ran away. I was depressed for a while. At least you could say a word of concern.
