Chapter 538 Making Trouble
On the train to Beidu, Mr. Qin, his wife, and their children were all sitting in the sleeper car.
They were also planning to go to the dining car for a meal.
However, Meng Xia brought a lot of food, including pickles, tea eggs, dumplings, and even instant noodles brought by Lu Qiaoge.
It's chicken stew with mushrooms flavor.
When they left, the Lu family all came to see them off. Lu Yun had some business to attend to at the northern oil base, so she didn't go back with them. After all, it was Old Master Qin. This carriage was the same as when they came; it was a private one, with no one else except the Qin family.
Before mealtime, the train conductor came to the carriage to inform the old man about the dinner he had prepared for the evening.
It's not necessarily all the food that the old man likes to eat, but it's definitely all the food that older people prefer.
Then the train conductor saw the food laid out on the coffee table and said with a smile, "Oh, there's even instant noodles from Jiangcheng. They taste even better when cooked. You can also add some dried vegetables and eggs. We happen to have all of those on the train. What do you think, sir?"
That's definitely possible.
The old man smiled and said, "Then you can arrange it as you see fit."
Just as the train conductor was about to say it was all done, he suddenly widened his eyes and stared out the window in disbelief. His mouth was agape in shock, which was completely out of character for the usually composed train conductor.
What did I see?
As everyone looked out the window, people in other carriages also saw what was happening outside.
It was a little past 5 p.m., and we would be entering Tangcheng in another hour. At this moment, a terrifying and shocking scene unfolded on both sides of the railway.
First, let's talk about the sky. It was a dark mass of birds, and I couldn't tell if they were swallows, sparrows, or even a large flock of pigeons. I wouldn't say it was overwhelming, but it was pretty much everywhere.
The swallows and sparrows in the main flock are not actually very harmonious; they have never flown together in the sky like this before.
And then there are pigeons, which, like sparrows and swallows, are birds, but they are not the same kind of birds.
This is the sky, and on the ground, it's dark like a stream, and what's even more creepy is the rats running in the opposite direction of the train.
Big ones, small ones, gray ones, black ones...
The train driver was stunned by what he saw; if they had run onto the tracks, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Fortunately, they were on both sides.
Countless people witnessed this scene, and everyone was so shocked that they lost the ability to speak.
In the noisy ordinary carriage, where the commotion just moments before was so loud it seemed like it would blow the roof off the train, now all that could be heard was the sound of each other breathing.
To take it a step further, some people even held their breath.
The train did not slow down and continued forward at its normal speed.
Because they were going in opposite directions, naturally, after a few minutes, they could no longer see each other's shadows.
Even the old man became serious.
Something unusual must be going on.
The train conductor, no longer as relaxed as before, now frowned deeply.
Tao Suzhi was so frightened that she could barely catch her breath.
Bai Jinyan and Qin Feng, however, turned their attention away. Qin Feng said, "Such abnormal animal migration must mean that their environment has become dangerous. Often, animals are much more perceptive than humans."
Qin Feng didn't say anything more.
It's not wise to make assumptions before the situation is clear.
Old Qin reminded the train conductor, "There's no rush about the meal. Go and reassure the other passengers."
The train conductor then came to his senses and said, "Old leader, I'll leave for a bit. If you need anything, go find the train attendant."
When the train conductor left the sleeper car and entered the ordinary car, he was met with a great deal of discussion.
"My God, what's going on? Is something terrible about to happen?"
"There won't be any flash floods in this weather, so why are those rats running away?"
"Leaving aside the rats, why are there so many sparrows and swallows? Have you noticed? They're coming from Tangcheng."
"Is something going to happen in Tangcheng?"
"Usually, when animals exhibit unusual behavior, it's usually because of an earthquake, right?"
"Not necessarily. It could be a heavy rain or something. Otherwise, why would there be so many sparrows and swallows?"
May Amitabha Buddha protect us.
An old man was praying quietly.
"Did you see that? There's a huge flock of pigeons. No matter what, something's definitely wrong."
"..."
These are the more normal comments that the train conductor hears; in reality, there are many more things that he dares not say aloud.
But the train conductor couldn't care less at this point. He shouted loudly for everyone to be quiet, not to make wild guesses, and to trust science, among other things.
They also warned everyone not to continue and to avoid causing panic, otherwise the train police would have to handle the situation accordingly.
Upon hearing this, the murmurs gradually subsided, and those who knew each other and those who didn't exchange glances in silence.
This matter will spread very quickly.
Even if you've been warned, don't speak carelessly. This matter will spread like wildfire.
This is not something that can be controlled by humans.
Anyone who witnessed this scene, even if they don't say it openly, will tell their loved ones in private.
Even though he warned them not to tell anyone, people who heard the story still ended up telling others because of the extraordinary sight.
Even with underdeveloped communication, it will spread like wildfire.
Mr. Qin, who was in the sleeper car, naturally could not ignore this scene.
But he knew that the development of anything was always traceable.
As long as you keep this in mind, you won't be easily swayed.
In fact, Qin Feng and the others had already begun to analyze the reasons for this phenomenon.
Meanwhile, Lu Qiaoge had already entered Tangcheng like the wind. Although there were no rats crossing the streets, the cats and dogs in the city were running around in a strange manner.
Some climbed trees, some scaled walls, and in short, they turned the city upside down.
Before anyone could react, they naturally didn't know what to do. But by the time they did, tens of thousands of cats and dogs had mysteriously disappeared from the streets and alleys.
The cat, which was still in the tree, ran off in one direction at an extremely fast speed.
If these little creatures really get going, no one can catch them.
As the train slowly pulled into Tangcheng Station, the scenes witnessed on board quietly spread.
Those who heard this stared in shock, their eyes wide: "My God, the cats and dogs in the city are acting like they've gone mad today, it's terrifying..."
"Fortunately, they dispersed quickly, so they should be fine."
Lu Qiaoge didn't stay in the city; this was just a warm-up.
But know when to stop.
I'm sure this will keep everyone talking for two months. If we do it a few more times with the little cuties, we might get some unexpected results.
Lu Qiaoge put all the little cuties back into her space. Under the command of Tao Tao, Big Sparrow, and Big Mouse, the mice, sparrows, and swallows basically returned to their original nests.
There were quite a few rats, but Lu Qiaoge told Rat Leader to keep an eye on them; she didn't care about the rest.
