"Xiao Feng, you are so busy with your work, yet someone still calls you at this time." Zhou Xizhi laughed when he saw Lin Feng finished the call.
"Of course, it's a big deal of 100 million to 10 billion. How can you not call me and ask?" Lin Feng was in a good mood after chatting with his cousin on the phone for a while, so he joked with Zhou Xizhi...
In City A, 700 kilometers away from Lin Feng's school, Zhang Ning, who once deliberately let Jiang Zhentao win in the sports department competition, was waiting for the bus at the station. After he let Jiang Zhentao win, he received 50,000 Chinese yuan from him, which just relieved his sister's urgent need for organ transplant.
The operation went smoothly, his sister's condition improved, and she even regained her appetite. So Zhang Ning took the bus to an old restaurant they often went to when they were children to order some delicious food for his sister.
There is a barbecue stand with a view not far from the station. Zhang Ning looked at the men, young and old, who were drinking heavily at the stand and couldn't help feeling a little envious.
A pair of drinking buddies who had just finished drinking came to the bus station supporting each other, talking and laughing. It seemed that they were going to take the bus home.
Although this wine can cause a person's brain and body to function rapidly, it is sometimes seen as a good thing. After drinking it, one becomes innocent like a child, and all worries and troubles disappear into thin air, leaving one in a happy and carefree mood. This is the reason why the saying "money cannot buy a good night's drunkenness" is true.
Zhang Ning was reminded of the past by the scene. He recalled the time when he and his roommates got drunk and crawled back to the dormitory in college. He couldn't help but smile knowingly.
When returning to the dormitory, he brought a bottle of wine for the old man who looked after the dormitory. The old man was so moved that he told everyone that this kid had the best alcohol tolerance and remembered to bring wine for the old man even after crawling back.
Although Zhang Ning enjoyed VIP treatment from then on as the old man in the dormitory would open the door for him no matter how late he returned, he was often drunk by his unsuspecting classmates at dinner parties and was reduced to tears.
But those were things that happened during his freshman year. After that, the dormitory door was entered by swiping a card, and he never saw the drunken old man again.
A bus slowly stopped at the station. The two drinking buddies got on the bus first, and Zhang Ning followed behind. The one who got on the bus first felt dizzy and leaned back a little, so the one behind him raised his hand to help him.
"Lao Liu, you look calm and collected, are you really drunk? Be steady, I have a bus card, find a seat first."
"Alas, I'm not as good as you. Old Li, I've seen your unique skill of drinking a glass of boiled water after drinking." The man in front answered shakily.
This drunk guy had no footing, so out of kindness, Lin Feng also helped Lao Li from behind. He thought that they should not both be unable to stand steadily, as the combined weight of at least 300 pounds would push him to the bottom. But when he helped, he felt the back of his drinking buddy in front of him was burning hot, as if there was boiling water in his body, and then he looked at his own hands, which were slightly red.
"Oh my god, can this wine be converted into heat energy? Or did I eat something I shouldn't? This temperature can replace a hand warmer. I hope I won't be burned by spontaneous human combustion. My death would be so unfair." Zhang Ning was amazed and started to think wildly.
Fortunately, the scene Zhang Ning imagined did not happen. The two drinking buddies found a seat next to each other near the back door and sat down to chat about all sorts of things. Seeing that they were all fine, Zhang Ning stopped worrying about it and sat in the second to last row as usual. He took out his phone and started reading a novel while the bus slowly drove out of the station.
The little apprentice sister was injured by the cold air of the Frost Hades and shivered all over. She gasped and collapsed in the arms of Brother Chen. Brother Chen knew that this frost cold air could only be broken by Chongyang Qi, and he was practicing Chongyang magic. It seemed that only by transferring his Qi into the little apprentice sister's body could he dissolve the cold air and save her life...
"Lao Li, why is your body so hot? It's burning my hands. You can't just go home now. Go to the hospital right away."
When Lao Li heard what Lao Liu said, he was also a little puzzled. He touched his forehead with his hand and looked at Lao Liu with a strange look and said, "Lao Liu, I think you drank too much. My body temperature is normal. Why do I need to go to the hospital? I will go home first when we arrive at the station soon."
"I'm not drunk... Your body temperature is hot, can't you feel it?" Lao Liu looked at Lao Li with a surprised look. He felt that the other person's body temperature was just like boiling water, so that even without touching him, he could feel a wave of heat just by sitting next to him.
"I feel great, you don't have to worry about me." Old Li still felt good about himself, with a smile on his face and no trace of pain.
The two of them sat two rows in front of Lin Feng. Since it was early in the morning, there were only a few passengers. Zhang Ning could hear their conversation clearly from behind.
"Is it true that Mr. Li has a high fever? Even his drinking buddies said that he was burning, so it should be true. But then again, it is really strange that someone can have a high fever and yet feel good about himself. Could it be that what my brother said is true?" Zhang Ning murmured to himself.
"Lao Li, your reaction is not normal. Are you confused by the high fever?" After this happened, Lao Liu sobered up immediately. He remembered some news reports that if a drinking buddy died suddenly or got into a traffic accident, the people who drank with him at the same table would also be jointly liable. This also made him concerned about Lao Li's condition. He couldn't afford to let him get sick from drinking just a little bit of wine.
"I've already told you that I'm in good shape now, why are you taking so long like an old woman?" Old Li seemed a little annoyed.
But what he said was completely different from what he saw on his body. His body was swelling at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his entire body was red and hot as if it was cooked. Even wisps of white smoke were coming out of his seven orifices.
Zhang Ning was watching it clearly from the back row. Even though he was civilized and polite, he couldn't help but swear: "Fuck, is there really smoke coming out of all seven orifices? Is this spontaneous human combustion or ascension to heaven?"
The passengers in the same car also noticed Lao Li's reaction. A female passenger screamed without hesitation after seeing it, using the authentic dolphin sound. Two male passengers in the front seats looked back and immediately jumped up from their seats and rushed to the driver who was driving, shouting and gesturing to stop the car and open the door. The two were shocked. They had seen people foaming at the mouth and unconscious, but they had never seen people with red and swollen bodies. Is this a disease? This is going against the will of heaven. Fortunately, we have seen a lot of things in the world and are not surprised. It is better to get off the car and stay away from this weirdo.
Because there was a female passenger in the back screaming loudly, and the two of them were shouting incoherently in fear, the multiple voices intertwined together, resulting in the driver not being able to hear a word.
But the driver was very calm. The bus was about to turn left at an intersection. He calmly turned the steering wheel and passed the intersection with heavy traffic. Then he looked up at the rearview mirror to see what happened, but found that he was blocked by the two male passengers. He did not turn back and took a deep breath from his dantian. He shouted, "What happened? Tell me slowly. Is the pregnant woman about to give birth, or did the old man vomit from drinking?"
The bus driver was a demobilized soldier stationed in Tibet. During his military service, he hunted poachers, experienced blizzards and avalanches, and was stationed at the highest and most difficult outpost. Therefore, he was able to maintain the calmness, composure and coolness of a soldier when the carriage was in chaos. If it were another driver, he would probably be stimulated by the dolphin sound of the female passenger, and if there was a lot of traffic at the intersection, it would easily cause a chain accident. However, this driver drove through the intersection where he could not stop, then drove the car to the side of the road with the hazard lights on, pulled the handbrake and asked what happened. The whole process seemed calm and orderly.
"There is a man who is drunk. He looks like a skeleton and his body is swollen. Please open the door quickly to prevent him from infecting us with any disease." The instinct of survival made the two male passengers quickly send out a representative to describe the scene they saw in the simplest language.
The driver turned on the lights in the car and pressed the button to open the door. Since Lao Li was near the back door, people rushed out of the bus from the front door. There were not many people on the last bus, and most of the passengers in the car ran out in a dozen seconds. There was even an old man who squeezed a young man with his strong body and rushed out first. Zhang Ning couldn't help but sigh that the body is indeed the capital of revolution. With a healthy body, when encountering this critical moment, an ordinary old man instantly becomes an "attack old man". But compared with Lao Li, this old man is nothing.
Now the only people left in the carriage were the driver, the female passenger who sang the dolphin voice, Lao Li and Zhang Ning.
The driver was a retired soldier with a certain amount of courage and skill. He would not abandon the car without understanding the situation. He would not be able to explain to the company. So the driver stayed to see what happened in the chaotic car. He stood up from the driver's seat and looked into the car.
The car seemed much more empty at this time, and the scene that was happening was naturally visible at a glance. The driver took a look, rubbed his eyes, and looked carefully... Then he ran out of the bus at his fastest speed.
"My God, I thought the scariest thing in the world was to see the Himalayan snowman turn his head and smile, but I didn't expect that a passenger could easily beat him back..." The driver was still in shock, speeding on the brightly lit road, tears streaming down his face. (To be continued)
