CHAPTER 225: CHAPTER 109: TIME FLIES_3

Arriving outside the driver’s cab, he knocked on the door.

As the computer-controlled door opened, the driver revealed a look of confusion and admiration. "Train Chief Zhang, why are you here?"

Zhang Feng came up with a thermos cup, "Hitching a ride."

...

The high-speed train is indeed fast.

The high-speed train cockpit, it’s the first time coming here.

Feels like the space is a bit narrow, not suitable for putting down a small stool.

But it is precisely high-speed trains, like airplanes, that have a ’death, revert back to before boarding’ save point.

That’s why Zhang Feng dared to come, also afraid that this kind of interruption might affect the driver’s thinking.

Simultaneously, Zhang Feng had a thought.

Which is to sit in the airplane cockpit one day.

...

Two hours.

The Southwest Province near the border has arrived.

After bidding farewell to the driver who admired him immensely, Zhang Feng also took a taxi to the small town at the foot of the mountain.

On the way.

Zhang Feng leaned against the seat in the passenger side, gazing out at the scenery through the window.

The taxi driver kept glancing at Zhang Feng and then at his clothes, curious, "Sir, are you the train chief at the station?"

"Yes." Zhang Feng looked at him, "Yunlian City’s station."

"Amazing!" The driver exclaimed, "You’re impressive! A big official!"

"I’m not much; the station chief is." Zhang Feng smiled and shook his head, "But if you ever come to our place for a ride, giving you a free ticket isn’t a problem."

"No, no, no!" The driver suddenly became very nervous, thinking Zhang Feng didn’t want to give him the fare, "Whatever it costs, that’s what it should be, it’s all work, I can’t be careless!"

...

Arriving at the mountain’s outskirts.

"Take care." The driver counted the money, very pleased because the train chief didn’t want to cheat him out of the fare.

"Go slow on your way back."

Zhang Feng waved to him, then began trekking through the mountains and water.

All the way.

He also enjoyed the scenic views of mountains and clear waters.

The temperature here isn’t too low, and many trees haven’t turned autumn yellow.

A glance reveals the vibrant life in the flowing stream.

Trickle~

Getting closer, there are even some fish in the creek.

Their fins moved, shattering the reflection of trees in the water.

There are also some anglers in the distance.

The icy water breeze brushed against his face.

At this moment, though not a sense of complete relaxation, there was a sudden feeling of being isolated from the world after twenty-four years of work in a bustling city, arriving in a quiet world.

This strong contrasting emotion blew away some of Zhang Feng’s gloomy thoughts with the icy water breeze.

’If it was a 70% Heart Demon Value before, now it should be 50, nearly one-third gone.’

After realizing this moment, Zhang Feng continued forward.

Having crossed the mountain.

Zhang Feng saw a small town below the mountain peak beside him.

From afar, there were houses built of wood.

As he approached, entering the town.

Zhang Feng saw many people still riding bicycles, holding old-fashioned phones.

The road planning was quite chaotic, and there were no surveillance cameras.

Boss Long lives here now, the communication is not very developed, no wonder he’s hard to find.

Continuing forward.

"What kind of clothes are those?"

"He’s the Chief, right?"

"I saw him in the city, he’s the train chief..."

As Zhang Feng walked, he attracted some people’s attention.

There were also some children following behind Zhang Feng, imitating his walking posture.

They thought it looked cool.

Zhang Feng looked at the children behind him, then went to a nearby grocery store to buy some candy.

"Come, call me Chief."

Zhang Feng smiled as he gave it to them.

"Hello, Uncle Chief!"

"Hello, Uncle!"

"Uncle Chief! I also want candy! Can you give me one?"

They cheerfully shouted with sweet voices.

"Don’t rush, there’s enough for everyone."

Zhang Feng was also happy to give them candy.

When the nearby children saw this, they all gathered around.

The surrounding residents seeing this scene weren’t wary of outsiders, because Zhang Feng was in a train chief uniform, exuding righteousness.

When they saw Zhang Feng, they felt they were the bad guys.

This kind of upright aura made them subconsciously reverent.

"This big brother..."

But at this moment, also a sincere man came over, holding some change, "Sorry, my kid loves candy, here’s your money for it."

"No need." Zhang Feng smiled, "He called me uncle, and you called me big brother, I gave candy, and I gained."

After speaking, Zhang Feng waved and left.

Ignoring others’ looks.

Zhang Feng followed the address given by Old Fang, walked about ten minutes, and arrived at a food stall.

The stall owner was an elderly man nearly seventy years old.

In a vague way, Zhang Feng could see Boss Long’s resemblance.

The looks changed so much, no wonder it’s hard to find.

"Boss, one bowl of wontons, please."

Zhang Feng glanced at him and then at the stall.

There was a bed over there, with a kid about a year old, wrapped like a ball.

"Alright..." Boss Long looked at Zhang Feng, but didn’t recognize him and started making wontons.

Seeing he didn’t recognize him, Zhang Feng took the initiative to say, "Boss Long, over twenty years ago, you told me to find you when I visited the mountain province.

But as soon as you left, it was a long journey apart for years."

Thunk—

Boss Long paused his chopsticks for making wontons, looked carefully at Zhang Feng, feeling he didn’t know this middle-aged man in train chief clothes.

"Your friend." Zhang Feng reminded him, "The one wrapped tightly, who gave me a secret manual, and finally jumped off the train; I’m the one he sent the manual to.

I gave you a card before to pick him up."

"You are... Zhang Feng?" He recalled, excitedly, "I saw your news! The sit-in guests also saw it!

The sit-in guest also said, his nickname was given by you, the world’s top expert!

Since that day, he asked me to call him the sit-in guest."

"Number one in the world, just rumors online." Zhang Feng curiously asked, "Where’s the sit-in guest now?"

"He’s in the mountains," Boss Long openly replied, "We’ve been catching rats in the deep mountains and old forests along the border for years."
