Celestial Masters Alliance

"There is a car following us!" Mu Mu reminded me gently while looking at the rearview mirror.

I slowed down the car again and took the time to look in the rear mirror. About fifty meters away from us, a car without any lighting facilities was slowly following us. Because it didn't have any lighting facilities, the darkness and dancing snowflakes gave it the best cover.

"I'll go! Can it see the road without turning on the lights?" I cursed in a low voice.

"Maybe we are using our car as a beacon!" Xiaoba twisted around and observed the vehicles behind.

"When we installed the anti-skid chains, it stopped at the corner next to the slope. As for when it stopped there, I don't know." The wood paused, looked at the trembling me, and continued: "Start. I didn’t care either, but as soon as our car started moving, it immediately followed us, which was a bit strange!”

Xiaodao pretended to be frightened and said with exaggerated movements: "Could it be a ghost car in an accident-prone area?"

I tried my best to resist the goosebumps that quickly swelled up on my body, and said with a smile: "How is it possible! Ghosts have to go home for reunion during the Chinese New Year! Otherwise, wouldn't the tributes placed at the door be wasted?" When I said this, I started to laugh. She glanced at Shan Yu in the reversing mirror. Shan Yu was not covered by darkness at this moment, because her face was as pale as the snow on the road.

"Shan Yu? What's wrong with you?" I asked quickly.

Shan Yu was silent for a while under everyone's attention before answering the question: "The round button on the left side of the steering wheel is the overtaking button. It can accelerate instantly."

I glanced at the button on the left, and then at the strange car following us. It was driving in the dark. I couldn’t tell what model it was, and I didn’t know how many people were sitting in the car. I couldn’t figure out whether it was following us. Its purpose is to make me uneasy.

I decisively pressed the overtaking button, and the engine suddenly roared violently. This was a sound that could make men's blood boil. There was a strong push-back feeling in my body, and the car sped forward.

"You're crazy! The car is covered with snow chains!" Trumpet exclaimed, pulling the handle on the window.

"Zhu Mo!" Mu Mu also roared.

"It's okay! The highway exit is ahead. If we rush over, we will know if the car is following us!" I felt the passion brought by the speed, and my voice unconsciously rose several octaves. Mu Mu sat up straight. , frowning and using his index finger to tap the knotted eyebrows.

I couldn't take care of their little emotions, and I didn't have time to explain. I grabbed the steering wheel and rushed off the highway. The car drove on the smooth road for a while, and I gradually felt something was wrong. The road ahead was getting narrower and narrower, and the tires conveyed the message that the road was uneven. Because the snow was so thick, I began to suspect that what was buried under the snow was not the road.

I turned off the overtaking system, reduced the speed to 20, and looked in the rearview mirror. It was obvious that we had gotten rid of the strange vehicle, but the dark night sky and the shadows of trees rushing past the window made it difficult for us to I felt stiffness in my back. There are no road signs on this road, and the navigation system has been shouting and repeating since I got off the highway: You have deviated from the main road, please return to the main road immediately. I kept waiting for it to tell me where I was and how I should get back to the main road, but what I was waiting for was an endless repetition.

Suddenly the car tilted violently to the left, and there was no sense of grip. The wheels were slipping in the sunken areas, and I couldn't find the point of application of force even if I applied the accelerator fully. I was immediately discouraged, eroded by a kind of powerlessness, and the wood stretched out my hand. He shook my shoulder and said softly: "Let's go! Go down and have a look!" After that, he put on his backpack and got out of the car. I glanced at Xiaoba and Shan Yu in the back seat. They got out of the car almost at the same time as me.

The taillights illuminated a large patch of red on the snow behind the car. This visual impact made me stunned for a moment. The car's exhaust made me sneeze. The wheels spun, causing a depression to appear under the car. A piece of wood stood on one side, facing towards the car. He looked around and then said softly: "Let's look around to see if we can find flat stones or wooden boards!" The cold wind tore his hair and froze his words in the air.

The trumpet gave me a tug before I could react. Glancing at Shan Yu, he walked over and said apologetically: "It's cold outside! You go back to the car and wait! I'll let you know if anything happens."

Shan Yu was a little worried. He glanced at the wheels stuck in the pit, then nodded and said, "Don't be too anxious! I'll boil some boiling water for you in the car!"

I watched Shan Yu get into the car before following Mu Mo and Xiao Ba. Xiaoba looked at me and kept looking for opportunities to complain, but finally couldn't help but muttered: "People always have to pay for their own madness!" I knew I was in the wrong and pretended not to hear. The wood just sighed softly.

But looking back now, although that car has been following us, it did not pose a real threat to us. I was prompted by Shan Yu to activate the overtaking device and entered this road by mistake. Why did Shan Yu hint to me like this? A sentence suddenly flashed into my mind: If you have a right plan, you will have a reason.

Shan Yu's hints to me were obviously tempting, and her demeanor at that time was definitely not seeking excitement. That is purposeful behavior. She was trying to figure out how to get rid of the car behind her! At that time, the ghost car was submerged in the darkness, and we could only see a black shadow. Why was she afraid and had to get rid of the shadow? Could it be that the black shadow is familiar to her, or has always been in contact with her...

Xiaoba suddenly came over and asked, "Shan Yu..." As soon as he opened his mouth, a knife flew out of his eyes, and Xiaoba immediately shut up.

After a while, Mu Mu whispered: "Let's take a look! Maybe it's just a misunderstanding!"

I understand that Mu Mu doesn't want to stir up trouble at this time, but that would be looking down on me too much. After all, I'm not a fool. I moved a few big rocks back angrily, and Xiaoba also moved a few and followed me silently. We filled the depression with stones and put the car's floor mats on top to increase friction. Shan Yu tacitly prepared himself in the driving seat. When Shan Yu stepped on the accelerator, the three of us pushed the car hard at the same time. At the end, the car suddenly rushed forward, the anti-skid chain got stuck on the edge of the stone, and finally found a point of strength and climbed up the steep slope. We cheered inexplicably.

Mu Mu took over the driver's seat and handed me the backpack in his hand. I reluctantly got into the passenger seat. The navigation returned to normal after restarting. Mu Mu took us around and back to the main road. I accidentally caught a glimpse of a collapsed warning sign on the side of the road. It read in red letters on a white background: Road construction ahead, please go around!

"Damn! No one cares about the fallen street sign, I'm going to get killed!" I cursed in a low voice, and Mu Mu glanced at me, with an obvious snicker on his face.

Soon we entered a characteristic road with no trees or buildings. We didn't delay for too long just now, everything seemed to be back to normal, but my heart towards Shan Yu had a subtle change, the kind of self-torture type change.

Xiaodao was keenly aware of it, so he tried his best to adjust the atmosphere, sometimes telling jokes, sometimes telling news stories about no man's land. I responded absently, always secretly observing Shan Yu.

When daybreak was about to break, we finally reached a populated place, found a restaurant and had a warm meal, determined the distance we were going to travel, and agreed to find a hotel to have a good night's rest after dark today.
