Coffin of the Nether World - C54

Zhou Li reminded me repeatedly to not let anyone else know about what he learned from Master after we went out, or else they would treat me like a monster.

I asked why, aren’t these things used to help people? Why do you all have to treat me like a monster?

Zhou Li said that this was a problem for this society. As long as I stay outside for a period of time, I will find out for myself, but you must remember, don’t let anyone else know about it.

The night before I left, my master gave me a small slip of paper with a string of numbers written on it. My master told me to make this call when I was at my wit’s end.

I nodded and put the note away, and the next morning the master did not send me.

He said that if a man wanted to do something, he had to do it himself.

It was Zhou Li and Big Sister Xiaowen who came to send me off, so I got on Zhou Li’s car while carrying the bag that Big Sister Xiaowen bought for me.

I have never been outside the town before, so Zhou Li had to drive for more than an hour on the road before he could finally get on the road.

I asked Sister Xiaowen, where do I want to go?

Sister Xiaowen said that it was Chengdu, a relatively distant place.

After getting off the car, I looked around at the tall buildings I had never seen before. In the plaza, Xiaowen told me to not reveal an expression that I had never seen before no matter what happened, or else I would be laughed at by others.

Zhou Li went to buy a ticket, while Big Sister Xiaowen spoke in a resentful tone: “I don’t know why but your master didn’t let me go see you out. You’re just a kid and you’re riding on a train, big sister is still very worried for you.”

“Sister Xiaowen, what kind of words are those? I’ve never heard of it. ” What Big Sister Xiaowen said confused me. I had never heard the accent of such words before.

Sister Xiaowen laughed, rubbed my head and said: “This is called Mandarin, if you don’t have to speak it in the outside world, you don’t have to learn it. If you stay here for a long time, you will know how to speak it.”

There were so many rules in this city. No matter how he begged, he would have to take things one step at a time.

Sister Xiaowen said that she would be there in about 4 hours. Not far away, you took your ticket to find the same number on your seat.

I nodded and said, “ABCD… All the way to XYZ, that’s what I taught you. ”

Sister Xiaowen hugged me and also gave me a string of numbers, saying that if someone bullies me, I’ll give them a call.

After getting on the train, before I could recover from my feelings of separation from Big Sister Xiaowen, the first question came up. So many people! It took me a long time to find my seat. Just as I sat down, the car shuddered and I saw the scenery slowly recede from the window.

According to what Big Sister Xiaowen said, I carried my schoolbag on my chest.

Sister Xiaowen told me to hold this black cup of water in her left hand after getting off the car, so that someone would come to pick me up.

This person is a good friend of hers in Chengdu, her name is Zhang Kexuan, I will call her Sister Kexuan when the time comes, and Sister Xiaowen also told me that she has a sister that is the same age as me, called Zhang Kefan, and told me to please her when the time comes.

I know that I will have to live in the Sister Kexuan’s home for a long period of time from now on.

When I left, Master told me that Big Sister Xiaowen was a good person and the person she found for me was also a good person, but Master especially told me that people change, so if I felt wronged, I would call him.

I thought the phone call was from my master, but my master told me that I would have to solve every problem on my own, and he didn’t have a phone, so it wasn’t his phone call, but from a good friend in Chengdu.

I don’t really understand, what’s the difference between Master’s good friend and Big Sister Xiaowen’s good friend? I’m too lazy to think about it.

Four hours wasn’t long, but it wasn’t short for me either.

Moreover, this was my first time taking the train. It was a bit strange, constantly looking around. However, it only lasted for a short period of time.

After a while I got bored. The car was so crowded and noisy that I couldn’t sleep on all fours for a while.

I just looked out of the window in a daze. I was wondering if my life in the city would cause trouble for others, and if they didn’t like me, I would do it.

Unknowingly, I think that everyone in the carriage finally felt extremely hot and stuffy. As they stopped talking, the carriage started to quiet down.

I also watched as the green forest rapidly disappeared behind us.

At any moment, a large area of houses would appear, and as the car moved forward, these houses would slowly become tall and beautiful. I knew that they were about to arrive.

Every once in a while, a vibration would come from the carriage. Not long later, something inside the carriage began to sound out a warning to the passengers that they were about to arrive at the station.

The carriage, which had been quiet for quite some time, started to clamor again. Many people started to walk towards the door before the car stopped, as if they were about to get off.

I don’t get it. It’s not like the car is leaving right away. He had to squeeze. I just sat in my seat and watched as everyone left. Then, I took the black blanket with my left hand and got out of the car.

After getting out of the car, I looked at the things I had never seen before and didn’t dare to walk around for fear that the person who came to pick me up wouldn’t be able to find me.

There was a long corridor, and very bright lights. People were walking back and forth while pulling boxes behind them. Not far away, the word “Chengdu” was hanging on the high roof.

Sister Xiaowen said that she would stand in her original spot after getting off the car. After about ten minutes, a woman who was dressed in a green dress and looked to be around the same size as Sister Xiaowen stood in front of me. She squatted down and asked me: “You are He Fang? Xiao Fang? ”

I looked at her and was a little unsure if it was this person, but she was not wrong when she said my name, so I nodded and said, “I am He Fang, and you are … Sister Kexuan? ”

“Aiya, you’re so polite, I’m Xiaowen’s good friend, Zhang Kexin. I’m here to pick you up.”

When he said Big Sister Xiaowen’s name, I knew it couldn’t be wrong.

“Let’s go, Xiaowen said that you’re very smart. Kefan always says at home that she’s not fun alone, and in the future, you can also play with him.” As I said that, Sister Kexuan pulled my hand and walked outside.

I went up the stairs and down the stairs, and then I went back into the tunnel. After a while, I felt like I was being spun around. This road was much harder to remember than the mountain road back home.

“Xiaowen said that it’s your first time in the city, and even told me to take good care of you. Actually, I wouldn’t get anything if I said that. Sister Kexuan used our native language to speak to me, and I immediately felt that she was a lot closer to me.

“Sister Kexuan, why are you still talking about our side?”

Hearing my question, the Sister Kexuan laughed and said to me: “Everyone here is from Sichuan, so of course they speak Sichuan, but this is a big city, so most of the people here speak Mandarin. In the future, when you go to school, you will also need to speak Putonghua because you have to get used to it.”

I thought about it for a moment. It didn’t seem too hard.

At this time, we had already gone outside. Sister Kexuan had bought me something that she called “ice cream” and she said it was too hot. She told me to eat and not to get sunstroke.

I took a bite. So sweet!

At this time, Sister Kexuan stretched out her hand and a car stopped in front of us. After getting on the car, the car ran for about half an hour.

“My house is on the 18th floor. Let’s go, I’ll teach you how to use the elevator.”

I looked up and saw that almost half of the buildings were in the sky.

Sister Kexuan said to me: “Xiao Fang, don’t be surprised, just slowly get used to it.”

The Sister Kexuan taught me how to use the elevator, but I found that I had to struggle my way to the 18th floor.

“Elder sister, did you buy me ice cream?”

When Sister Kexuan just opened the door, I didn’t even see what was inside before a clear voice sounded from the room.
