Chapter 351 Returning Home
After leaving the Xuangong Building, Chen Chuan went directly onto the overpass. After driving for more than an hour, he arrived at the checkpoint out of the city.
The car flashed for a moment, and passed the station inspection directly without stopping, then drove out of the city, gradually leaving the flickering light of the central city behind.
At this time, it was pitch black in front of him, with only street lights illuminating the road ahead. He chose to set off at midnight so that he could reach Yangzhi early tomorrow morning.
After about ten minutes, the radio made a rustling sound and no other sound came out. He took it off and placed it in a box prepared in advance, then reached out and turned on the radio channel.
During this period, in addition to being able to receive some midnight programs from the central city, there is also a channel set up by the armed team in the wilderness, which is almost entirely heavy metal music, occasionally mixed with bursts of ghosts and wolves howling.
He listened and felt it was noisy, so he immediately changed the channel. He didn't know if there was something wrong, because the radio only made a rustling sound and he couldn't make any sound.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be an extra person sitting on the seat behind him.
He looked very calm and didn't look at the rearview mirror. He was still changing channels. After a while, a normal fast-paced music sounded. This was the channel of the National Highway Checkpoint. In addition to reminding safety, this kind of music was played throughout the whole process.
As the music emerged in the car, that feeling disappeared.
At this time, he looked up at the rearview mirror above and saw that the back seat was empty.
He was alone when he came out, there was absolutely no way anyone was there, so that must be the strange phenomenon he felt after entering the third limit.
From the perspective of various anomalies, these things may appear from time to time, often popping up inadvertently and infiltrating into the fighter's life. It is no wonder that some fighters will become mentally abnormal due to these things.
They are a highly sensitive and vigilant group, and if something like this happens from time to time, it is easy for problems to arise.
It is mentioned in the "Zhu Yi Kao" that the more you care about this thing, the more likely it is to be enriched and detailed, so you only have to "carefully keep the spirit and ignore it", "after a long time, the strangeness will disappear on its own".
According to him, the current stage is just the beginning of the achievement, and the spirit is not strong enough, but one can feel more things than ordinary people. This is the most vulnerable period. Once the spirit is slowly cultivated and is full and abundant, it will naturally not be shaken.
However, fighters who only focus on concentrating their energy and blood will most likely not have this kind of trouble. Only fighters with outstanding talents or who have trained their spirits frequently will often encounter this problem.
But if you want to move forward, you have to take this step eventually.
It seems that waiting until the essence and blood are consolidated before continuing is the same path, but this path is just as difficult.
At this time, he glanced at the passenger seat and saw that Chao Ming, who was lying on the driver's seat and jumping around happily all the way, had fallen asleep there at some point.
He smiled, turned down the music volume a bit, listened to the soothing music, and slowly walked forward along the road.
Five hours later, it was already past six in the morning. The red sun rose from the horizon on one side, and the bright light fell on the car. His car was the only one driving on the entire wide and endless avenue, as if it was the only moving thing in a still picture.
With a chirp, Chao Ming woke up and made a melodious cry towards the distant sun. Then he climbed to the top of the passenger seat and looked around excitedly.
After more than a quarter of an hour, the Gard car arrived at the last checkpoint and slowly stopped here. After passing this place, the area of Yangzhi City was ahead.
It may take a longer inspection to go from Yangzhi to the central city, but it will not be so troublesome if you pass through here from the central city.
A patrolman from the checkpoint came up and handed him his ID card. The patrolman saw that he was wearing a processing bureau uniform. After taking the card and looking at it, he saluted and handed the card back, saying, "Executive Chen, Yang Zhi is ahead. I wish you a safe journey."
Chen Chuan took it, nodded, and said, "Thank you."
He restarted the vehicle, left the checkpoint, and continued driving along the road. At around seven o'clock in the morning, he finally entered the area of Yangzhi City.
Looking at the familiar trees and buildings around him, and the sparse pedestrians in the early morning, although this place is not as prosperous and tall as the central city, it gives him an indescribable sense of closeness.
After returning here, he suddenly wanted to walk around the places he had stayed and visited before, and take a look at the people and things he had not seen for a long time.
He sped up a little, and more than half an hour later, the vehicle arrived at the family area of the police station. He stopped the car at the patrol post outside and slowly lowered the window.
He had called before I came, and today is a day off, so everyone should be at home.
He reached out and pushed open the car door, got out, straightened his uniform, looked at the familiar alleys and buildings in front of him, and took a deep breath.
He walked to the back of the car, took out the suitcase, and called out to Chao Ming. The latter chirped and jumped onto his shoulders, looking around.
At this moment, a team of patrolmen responsible for security happened to pass by. One of them saw him and said uncertainly, "Brother Chen...?"
Chen Chuan took a look and recognized him as the patrolman who often patrolled this area. He nodded and said, "Brother Wang, it's me."
"It's really you!" Brother Wang showed a look of surprise. "You're wearing this outfit, wow, I almost didn't recognize you. You...are you back from Central City?"
Chen Chuan said: "Yes, the college is on vacation, so I came back to see my aunt and uncle."
Brother Wang said: "Come back to visit the Nian Brigade family, it's great..."
Chen Chuan walked in with his suitcase, and he could hear the patrolmen talking behind him.
"I'm telling you, that's Brother Chen, the nephew of the year's team leader who was admitted to the Central City General Hospital last year."
"That's Brother Chen. He's so energetic. I felt like I couldn't breathe when he walked over to me just now. Even Director Guan didn't look as majestic as him when he stood in front of me."
"Of course not! Being able to pass the exam to become a fighter at the Central City Wuyi General Hospital couldn't be easy. Last year, this young man Chen really made our Chief of Police proud. Look at what he's wearing. He must have some job at the Central City Processing Bureau."
"Isn't he going to study?"
"Are you stupid? Teachers at Wuyi School can get a position in the processing bureau, so why can't he, a student at the main hospital?"
"An errand in Central City..."
All the patrol officers were extremely envious. Although they had never been to the central city, they longed to go there. However, they only thought about it in their hearts. Everyone understood that without an official identity, it would be a suffering to go there.
At this moment, when Chen Chuan walked through the alley, many neighbors also saw him.
"Biography? It's a biography, right?"
Chen Chuan responded with a smile.
Someone said, "Why call him a biography? Look at his clothes and style. He must have a job in Central City. From now on, we should call him Mr. or Sir."
"Even if he's the commander, he was raised by us, so we should still call him that..."
This statement prompted some people to jokingly say, "That's not surprising. Is that why you always call him 'Big Head' and 'Big Head' behind his back?"
The man panicked immediately, "Don't talk nonsense, when did I ever say..."
At this time, a clever child, with the help of his parents, ran to Nian Fuli's door and said, "Uncle Nian, Xiao Chuan is back from the central city."
The door creaked open, and then Nian Fuli and Yu Wan came out holding Nian Mo and Nian Lu. The family had obviously been waiting for a long time and walked out as soon as they heard the news.
Chen Chuan looked over. After not seeing them for more than half a year, Nian Fuli had gained a little weight, his aunt looked the same as before, and the two little ones had obviously grown taller. The family of four were all wearing new clothes.
He put down the suitcase, walked in front of them, looked at Nian Fuli and Yu Wan and said, "Aunt, Uncle, I'm back."
Yu Wan walked up and grabbed his hand, looked at him carefully, and then raised her hand to smooth out the wrinkles on his body. Her eyes couldn't help but become slightly red.
Chen Chuan then put his arm around Yu Wan's shoulder and said, "Aunt, I'm back."
Yu Wan tucked her eyes with the back of her hand and nodded repeatedly.
Nian Fuli said, "Yesterday, I received a call saying you were coming back. Your aunt tossed and turned in the middle of the night, unable to sleep, and kept nagging about when you would arrive. I said, why rush? Xiao Chuan has been in Central City for so long, there's only a little time left."
Yu Wan said, "I'm not anxious, I just miss Chan'er." She looked at Chen Chuan and said, "He looks a little taller and thinner than before, but he looks more energetic than before."
"Hello, cousin!"
The two little guys, Nian Mo and Nian Lu, came over to say hello, but most of their attention was on Chao Ming, their eyes were shining. Chao Ming was not afraid at all, and chirped at them, and the two little guys exclaimed "wow".
Nian Lu raised her little face and said, "Cousin, can I touch it?"
Chen Chuan smiled and said to Chao Ming, "Go play with them." Chao Ming was very smart and immediately understood what he meant. He left his shoulder and jumped to the little guy, who was caught by the two little guys with a scream.
Nian Fuli took a look and asked curiously, "Xiao Chuan, what did you bring back?"
Chen Chuanshuo said, "This is a bird lizard, an animal artificially bred in Central City. It's very smart and can guard the house, but it's still young."
Nian Fuli nodded and said, "It's good to be able to look after the house. You have to be careful when living alone in the central city. No matter how capable you are, you still have to be more cautious."
Chen Chuan agreed very much: "Uncle is right."
Yu Wan nudged them both and said, "It's very sunny outside, you two, go inside and talk."
Chen Chuan said hello and walked into the house with his aunt's family. His cousin and sister jumped in with Chaoming in their arms, shouting happily, "Cousin is back, cousin is back..."
