Ask Sword

The car stopped?

Li Ang leaned over to the car window. It was dark outside the window and there was no sound.

Something is wrong. The stations of Lingqi locomotives are all set up near the towns, and they must be brightly lit at night.

The driving regulations also require drivers not to park in the wilderness.

Is something wrong?

He Fanshuang put down the paintbrush and stood up, I remember that if you are forced to stop due to a breakdown, someone should come to each compartment to notify you soon.

Let me go and have a look.

Li Ang withdrew his gaze, turned and walked out of the cubicle.

Because he was worried that Mosi would suddenly lose control, he still let Mosi's clone stay in the cave in the east of Chang'an City this time when he went to Luoyang. And didn't send moss insects to follow the vehicle, so don't know what's going on outside.

The oil lamp in the aisle was flickering, Li Ang went straight to the door of the carriage, flung a few threads from his sleeves, and pierced the crack of the door.

He has been deeply involved in the improvement plan of the Lingqi locomotive, and he is very clear about the details of the vehicle, such as the alarm talisman buried in the door of the car, and a sharp alarm will be issued if someone breaks the door.

Niansi stretched all the way, avoiding the well-buried alarm symbol lightly, inserted into the lock cylinder, lifted and pulled, and opened the door lock.

click.

Li Ang opened the door of the car, and the cold night wind howled towards his face.

The arc-shaped light emitted by the oil lamp hanging in the aisle is too weak, and one can barely see the gravel-paved railway track below the carriage. In the distance, there are endless weeds, shrubs, and forests.

.

Li Ang stared, the wilderness was shrouded in darkness, which was not a big deal, but the front of the carriage was also completely dark, with no specks of light to be seen.

Could it be

He walked down the carriage along the pedals, closed the door falsely, stepped on the gravel, and came to the front of the carriage.

empty.

The train and all the rest of the carriages are missing,

Only the carriage at the end with the words [Nineteenth Car] painted on it, and the lone coupler at the front of the carriage remained.

Abandoned, or rather, kept.

At this time, the passengers in the carriage gradually realized that something was wrong.

The compartment doors on both sides of the aisle opened, and many passengers with their families poked their heads and chatted in low voices.

what happened?

Why did the train stop?

Where's the conductor?

Fragmentary whispers sounded,

He Fanshuang frowned slightly, folded the drawing paper, put it in the book, walked out of the compartment, and walked across the aisle.

At this moment, Li Ang boarded the carriage again, shook his head at He Fanshuang, and said softly, The carriage in front is gone.

Accident?

event.

Li Ang didn't say the word mutation, but took out a strange-looking iron rod.

He Fanshuang asked, This is?

Couple lift pin, used to fix the coupler.

Li Ang said: In the beginning, Dr. Su Feng and the others used the plug-in coupler, but under my suggestion, they replaced it with a separate coupler, which is more efficient and stronger.

Separate coupler, that is, Zhan's coupler in the memory of the foreign world.

When two couplers approach each other, the knuckle tongue will be hit and rotated, causing the inner hook post to automatically fall down and lock the coupler firmly—a bit like two palms of a person holding each other firmly.

And if you want to separate, you only need to lift the hook lifting pin on the coupler to make the coupler disengage.

Something pulled the hook pin while the train was moving and dropped us here.

Li Ang said calmly: It may be the Devil's Cult, or it may be something else.

I'll inform the academy.

He Fanshuang immediately took off a rectangular hollow copper piece hidden in the jade pendant from his belt, poured spiritual energy into it, and tried to contact the academy.

Hum——

The copper plate trembled for a long time, but there was still no response.

Li Ang silently watched He Fanshuang's attempt. He could no longer contact the clone of Mosi in the east of Chang'an City, and once again disconnected from the rest of Mosi.

The last time I encountered this situation was in the Jialan Sect.

Li Ang was sure that he and the whole car had been involved in some kind of change. I couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Why do you always encounter this kind of thing? It was also during the Jialan Sect and the Qixi Festival.

Is the rule that mutations will attract each other so effective?

While complaining, he was also thinking quickly.

Who could have done it?

Zhaoming? No, it's unlikely, the head of the mountain has been missing for so long, and he didn't even come back to preside over such an important matter as the Lingqi locomotive.

Judging from the attitudes of Jijiu Chen Danqiu and others, it is likely that they are looking for clues to Zhaoming all over the world, and they are even hunting Zhaoming people.

The distance from here to Chang'an is only over a hundred kilometers.

Zhao Ming would not take such a big risk to attack himself again.

The Demon Cult or the remnants of the former Sui sect? What motives do they have? The school is in full swing now, if there is an accident on the train, it will inevitably cause a strong counterattack from the school, tearing up the tacit understanding in the past.

What forces with vested interests are affected by the Changan Luoyang Railway?

Or, whoever has a grudge against someone in the car

Li Ang's thoughts changed sharply, but his face remained calm. He looked at the anxious passengers in the aisle, carefully observing everyone's expressions.

What happened?

A familiar voice came from the rear of the car, and a figure dressed in a style similar to that of the Academy walked out of the compartment, and raised his eyebrows when he saw Li Ang and He Fanshuang at the front of the car.

Pei Jing?

Li Ang looked at the classmate in surprise, Why are you here?

Go to Luoyang to pick up my brother back to Chang'an.

Pei Jing turned slightly, showing a six or seven-year-old child holding his hand behind him, wearing luxurious brocade clothes, with a timid expression, I saw in the newspaper that you two went to Lizheng Academy for exchanges, but I didn't expect to be in the same carriage return.

He paused for a moment, saw the hook pin in Li Ang's hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, he immediately squatted down, and said a few words to his brother,

He handed the latter to several Pei family guards in the same compartment, walked across the driveway, came to Li Ang, and asked in a low voice, Someone tampered with and left this compartment here?

And I can't contact the school palace.

He Fanshuang gently shook the copper plate in her hand, her homework results were far ahead, she had already surpassed the half-hearted Li Ang, and regained the first place in the grade. The supervisory department was also very optimistic about her and distributed expensive communication copper plates to her.

Pei Jing didn't say anything, took off a seal from her belt, and injected spiritual energy into it - obviously it was the Pei family's own communication equipment.

After a while, he shook his head and put away the seal, I can't get in touch with my family either, someone blocked the spiritual communication.

There will be conductors patrolling the carriages at night. According to the rules and regulations, they should be able to find out that this carriage is missing within a quarter of an hour and send someone to look for it immediately.

Li Ang said, Are there any other monks in the car? I still have some alarm signs here.

Beep, beep, beep——

Without any warning, the sound of extremely noisy drums suddenly came from afar.

The faces of the three changed slightly, and they all looked out of the carriage door.

However, far away, a welcoming team dressed in red and colorful, with loud gongs and drums, was slowly walking along the railway track.
