Chapter 5 To believe in science!
After lunch, Song Shuhang headed to the nearby rental bookstore to dabble with books.
He liked to dabble with books, not that he wanted to save the few dollars he spent on renting books, this was his personal hobby - Shuhang felt that squatting in the corner of the bookshelves of the rental bookstore and reading books was doubly cool!
Of course, in order to avoid the boss disgust, rubbing a half a day after the book, he will rent one or two books back - do people, all things can not be done to the end, to be a long stream! This can avoid the boss hate him, drive him out.
After all, there are not many large rental bookstores like this one, where the variety of books is not limited to novels, but all kinds of books.
If he was blacklisted, I'm afraid that there wouldn't be a better bookstore near Jiangnan University City.
It was said that a person's name was important, and that a person was just like his name, Song Shuhang loved to read books, and came in all sorts of books.
Whether it was novels, literary works, classical anthologies, or even all sorts of boring theoretical knowledge that made one's head look as big as a bucket, he loved them all.
Recently he mainly in the bookstore to dabble in some motor vehicle driving skills and attention to knowledge, he is ready to take advantage of the freshman year courses easy to get a driver's license. It's cheaper to apply for a driver's license at school than it is to go out for seven or eight thousand yen.
......
......
The time spent dabbling in books always passes exceptionally fast.
In the blink of an eye it was already around three o'clock in the afternoon.
"So fast ...... have to get ready to go back. Still have to go to the nearby supermarket to bring some dry food as a night snack, Saturday night can be an all-night battle ah." Song Shuhang hemmed and hawed.
After saying that, he casually pulled out a book and headed over towards the counter to handle the book rental procedures.
The counter was at the exit location of the rental bookstore, and today, the shade cover outside was broken, so the bookstore owner's wife hid in the shade on one side to avoid direct sun exposure.
"The sun is so big, it already feels like the height of summer ah." Song Shuhang put one hand over his eyes and looked up at the cloudless sky. While doing so, he handed the book he was going to rent in his hand to the boss lady.
The boss's wife was a typical Jiangnan beauty, like one made of water.
Her hobby is also reading books, and she also likes to hold a book and read it for the whole day. From her clothes, we can see that her quality of life is not low, and opening this bookstore is just her personal hobby.
Usually sitting there quietly reading books, the boss's wife, simply as beautiful as a picture, pleasing to the eye. Many ordinary young people is to often look at this picturesque scene, hard to reverse their own hobbies, from the two B young people changed into literary young people.
However, it is said that this picturesque side is just the boss lady's peace mode ......
There is a peace mode, then there must be a PK mode or a berserk mode. However, Shuhang hadn't seen it in the half a year since he came here.
"Alright, remember to return it in two days. Add a dollar to the rent for one more day." The boss's wife finished the book rental procedure, then waved her hand and told Song Shuhang to get lost in a hurry.
Although they had only been together for half a semester, this youngster who loved to dabble with books and did so for half a day had left a deep impression on the boss's wife. If it wasn't for the fact that this youngster had the sense to rent a book or two in the end to take care of her business, she would have long since waved her broom to kick him out.
"Hehehe." Song Shuhang smiled and took the book before crossing the threshold of the rental bookstore with one foot.
Boom!!!
It was at this moment that a deafening loud explosion rang out.
Everyone in the rental bookstore was startled, and Song Shuhang, who had taken a step, almost didn't step steadily and nearly fell into a dog's poop!
"F*ck!"
"Ouch, mama!"
"A bolt from the blue?"
"Scared to death." Various cries of alarm rose and fell in the rental bookstore.
Song Shuhang raised his head to look at the sky, and realized that the originally cloudless sky had changed, and at the end of the sky's horizon there was a dark cloud that quietly condensed, and in the blink of an eye, it covered the small piece of sky at the end of the horizon, with the appearance of a storm coming.
"It looks like a shower might be coming? Gee, they say that a few years ago the weather forecast was unreliable, that you had to look at it the other way around, and that you had to bring an umbrella if the forecast was for a sunny day. I thought that after so many years, weather forecasts had changed, but I didn't realize that they were still unreliable." Song Shuhang sighed darkly.
This wasn't as good as back then, back then, looking at the weather forecast only required looking at it in reverse; now looking at the weather forecast instead, one had to bet on whether it was accurate or not?
As he thought wildly, he picked up the rented book and prepared to rush back to the dormitory before the showers started to fall.
Before Song Shuhang could take his second step.
Boom ......
Another thunder roared up, shaking one's ears.
Song Shuhang's raised leg retracted again.
At the end of the horizon, the area of dark clouds twisted up in an unusual way. There were thunder snakes drilling out of the dark clouds, rumbling and forming a thunder net.
Song Shuhang had seen thunder, but in his entire life, he hadn't seen thunder and lightning densely packed into this appearance before him-it was almost like the end of the world, and the lightning in the sky wasn't even flashing one by one, but rather, it was a piece of it that struck down in unison.
The sound of rolling thunder is also different.
Jiangnan region before the sound of thunder is a loud bang, and then a series of rolling echoes. Now, on the other hand, the sound of thunder was like a firecracker with a large amount of gunpowder added. Boom, pop, boom, loud and noisy, even the echoes were muffled.
Assuming that this was someone who had done a sin and was struck by lightning, how big of a sin would it have to be to cause this situation of ten thousand thunderous booms?
And what made Song Shuhang even more concerned was that the pitch-black thundercloud didn't spread out, it kept shrinking at the end of the horizon, bombarding furiously, but with no rhythm of spreading out.
The rolling thunder continued for about ten breaths for a long time.
It gave the impression that the storm was going to come harder.
"What a misfortune!" Song Shuhang sighed and said in his heart, "Should we not dabble in books for a while?"
Generally speaking even if it rained thunderstorms, they came and went quickly. But if the shower rained longer, maybe he could read another book?
Thinking of this, he turned back to the bookstore and prepared to squat for a while longer.
It was as if the heavens were playing a joke on Shuhang.
When he turned around and stepped back into the bookstore, the roaring sound in his ears came to an abrupt end!
The roiling dark clouds and violent thunder snakes in the sky also dissipated at the same time! It was as if a large hand had painted the sky, and when it felt unsatisfied with the painting, it casually wiped away the dark clouds and thunder snakes.
The sky resumed its cloudless state, and the sun shone brightly! It was as if the blasting thunder and the sky full of thunder snakes just now were just hallucinations and illusions.
Someone in the rental bookstore murmured, "What's going on here?"
"It's not possible that someone really sinned and was struck by lightning, is it?"
"Superstition! The so-called lightning is just a natural phenomenon ......"
At this time, there was a little kid on the side of Shuhang who raised his head, holding a children's cartoon in his left hand, with his right palm facing the sky, and shouting loudly in a very heroic tone, "Ah, I want this sky to be unable to cover my eyes, and I want this earth to be unable to bury my heart! I want this sky full of dark clouds to dissipate without a trace!"
The corners of Song Shuhang's mouth twitched, he was sure that when this little brat grew up, the moment he recalled today's image, he would be so shy that he would roll all over the ground. And this kind of black history memory would haunt the little brat for the rest of his life. And then when it's not easy to realize that he has already forgotten this memory, maybe it will pop up again from the nook and cranny of his mind someday, making people want to scream: to hell with it, it's so shameful ah! and so on. And again, it makes one wish that he could travel back and beat up his self who did something stupid back then.
Because he himself has experienced it deeply.
It was just that for some reason, when he saw this hilarious brat, Song Shuhang suddenly remembered the group of immortal middle-aged groupmates in the Nine Continents No. 1 group.
''City H, transiting the Third Grade Houtian Lightning Tribulation.''
The group's chat log jumped into his mind.
He estimated the position of the sky horizon again, and that thunderstorm area just now seemed, seemed ...... to be the H City location?
Even with Song Shuhang's big heart, his heartbeat slowed down by half a beat.
It can't ...... be true, right?
The weather forecast showed that it was sunny, but a bizarre 10,000 thunderstorm suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Hahahahaha, how could it be! How can there be such a thing as a heavenly movement in this world. It should be a coincidence, right?!" Song Shuhang secretly said in his heart.
However, when the thought came together, it lingered in his mind: could there really be such a coincidence in the world? That thunder snake was so bizarre that it really didn't look like a natural event.
The words H City and Transition kept echoing in his mind.
Song Shuhang shook his head vigorously, shaking this possibility out of his mind.
The worldview he had built up over eighteen years told him to believe in science and reject superstition, that thundercloud was just a bizarre natural phenomenon rather than a thunderbolt or something!
