Yang Chu, who hurriedly left the orphanage with a vegetable basket, couldn't help but touch the wrist that was carrying the ancient bell beads just now while running.

When he brought the beads just now, his chest suddenly became hot, and the whole person felt a lot of energy, and even more strength, and that feeling was more comfortable than ever.

"Uncle Gu's string of beads must be a treasure, I don't know what material it is made of, if it is not expensive, I will also save money to buy a string, and I guess my brain can be a lot better when I wear it when I study. ”

Just when Yang Chu was talking about the string of beads, Gu Dazhong, who had left the orphanage and entered the car, seemed to notice something. Raising the beads on his wrist to take a look, he found that each bead was covered with cracks at this time.

If the previous string of beads was absolutely extraordinary in terms of brilliance and restraint, then the beads at this time are all lost, and it feels bad to sell them to others for 5 cents.

"Your mother!" Seeing that the beads were completely gone, Gu Dazhong couldn't help but curse, opened the car window and stretched out his head to look at the sky: "Lao Tzu doesn't believe in fate, it really can't be changed, everything is destined by heaven." If you have the chance, Lao Tzu will try it, and if you have the ability, you will split Lao Tzu's family into powder. ”

After speaking, he directly raised a middle finger to the sky, and drove away regardless of the strange eyes of the passers-by next to him.

At this time, dozens of miles away from the orphanage, in the villa area halfway up the mountain where the rich gather in Zhucheng. Yang Xi stood in the training room with beads of sweat on her forehead in a strong suit, and at this time she looked at a small turquoise fish in her hands with a smile on her face.

The palm she held up was now like a small pond, and the small fish swam in it, and from time to time they spit out a blister, which was extremely happy.

"I'm going to kill you, don't put it away quickly, if you lose it, you'll cry. ”

Li Lan, who walked into the training room with fruit, saw Yang Xi playing with a small fish, and hurriedly walked over. With a stern expression, he poked Yang Xi's forehead with his fingers.

"Just take it out and take a look, this little fish is so beautiful. Yang Xi stuck out her tongue, and the girl's delicate beauty was beautiful at this time.

However, although he retorted slightly, the palm of his hand was still released. The little turquoise fish's tail wagged like a splash of water and burrowed into her eyebrows.

......

Yang Chu came to school in the morning and did not enter the classroom as usual. Instead, they lined up in groups to assemble on the playground, and then buses drove one by one, pulling all the students and teachers up and heading towards the east of Zhucheng.

Although the overall topography of China is high in the west and low in the east, Zhucheng is just the opposite high in the east and low in the west. Because the Huaishui bypasses the east of Zhucheng, it is said that the Huaishui carried a large amount of sediment like the Yellow River in the past.

In order to prevent the rise of the riverbed from threatening the local people, the government organizes farmers to clean up the sediment accumulated in the riverbed every year during the dry season.

In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient and all relied on manpower, and it was impossible to transport sediment too far, so it was piled up on the shore. Slowly, the sediment piled up higher and higher, and it became the current not very high, but very deep Zhu Mountain. Mount Everest in Zhushan is where the government project supervisor stood in those years.

Of course, in addition to this relatively scientific explanation, there is also a myth and legend. In ancient times, the pearl city produced the most pearls in the country, and it was a tribute that only the emperor could use.

One day, a small dragon was playing with pearls in the water, and the dragon balls were suddenly taken by a bully on the shore and taken for himself. Without Dragon Ball, the little dragon can only lie on the shore and cannot go into the water, and his life is on the line.

At this time, a kind pearl diver appeared, and he bought a large jar of wine and gave it to the bully. The bully falls asleep after drinking, and she steals the Dragon Ball and gives it back to the little dragon.

The little dragon who retrieved his dragon ball was resurrected with full blood, but did not return to the river because he was grateful for the kindness of the pearl diver. Instead, he continued to lie on the shore and turned his body into a long causeway to block the raging Huai Shui.

In order to thank the little dragon and the pearl diver for their exploits, the descendants named this long mountain range Longzhu Mountain, referred to as Pearl Mountain. And Mount Everest is shaped like a huge bead, which is the dragon ball that the little dragon recovered.

The origin of the story cannot be traced, and there is no relevant record, only passed down from generation to generation in the mouth of the elderly. As for the little dragon that can incarnate into a mountain range several kilometers long, he can't kill a bully, and he was robbed of the Dragon Ball.

And the pearl diver, a woman who was very beautiful when she heard it, sent a jar of wine to the bully, and the bully didn't bully the man and the girl and drank directly to get herself drunk, and the dragon ball was taken by the pearl diver to steal these loopholes, which were naturally ignored.

In short, the old man will tell this story when he is coaxing the child to sleep, and if the child is naughty and does not sleep, the old man will scare the child with the bully, saying that if he doesn't talk about the bully again, he will come back and steal his ears and nose or something.

When the child grows up and becomes a family, he slowly becomes an old man. will also scare the children and grandchildren with this story, and the story has been passed down from generation to generation.

And only today the whole school organized students to come to Zhushan, and even almost the entire Zhucheng people came to Zhushan, naturally because the Double Ninth Festival has arrived, and according to the ancient rites, people need to climb high. And Zhushan is the highest place in Zhucheng, so it has naturally become the first choice.

The Double Ninth Festival in the ninth month of the lunar calendar used to be among the many lunar festivals, in addition to the Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival. Other holidays are closed on a closed day.

For example, there is no holiday for the Qixi Festival, the Zhongyuan Festival or something, and the Chongyang Festival naturally does not have either. Schools or companies with conditions will prepare some activities on such festivals, and those who do not have conditions should go to work and go to school.

Since the beginning of last year, I don't know what the government suddenly went crazy to promote national culture, so all kinds of festivals in the lunar calendar have been brought out.

It is expressly stipulated that all listed festivals, from kindergartens to universities, must be held in accordance with ancient rituals, or related celebrations.

Major enterprises and companies, as well as individual citizens, can choose appropriately. However, in addition to the traditional festivals previously specified, the number of new festivals or celebrations shall not be less than three times a year. In a word, those who have conditions must go up, and those who have no conditions must also go up.

Even the 24 solar terms have to be taken out in accordance with the ancient rites to carry forward, and the big festival of September 9 naturally cannot be missed. So on this day, the residents of Zhucheng flocked to Zhushan.

Fortunately, Zhushan is not high, but it is long enough, and the mountain is short but wide enough, otherwise eighty percent of Zhucheng people will come here, and they really can't let go.

Unlike the previous climbs, the order of climbing today is very clear. First a group of mothers with babies in their arms went up first, then kindergarten children, then elementary school, middle school, high school, university...... The younger ones go up the hill first and go down the hill according to their age.

"Chuzi, come here. Yang Chu, who was discussing with Cheng Dafu whether the vampire would appear again two days ago, heard someone shouting and raised his head.

Seeing Gu Dazhong, who was waving his hand not far away, he ran over with a smile on his face: "Uncle Gu, are you also climbing high and looking far today?"

"Look at the balls, if you want to see more, it's just right to come up below. Gu Dazhong underestimated a sentence in his mouth and didn't let Yang Chu hear it, patted Yang Chu's shoulder who ran over and said, "You follow me up in a while." ”

"Follow you?" Yang Chu was stunned for a moment, and then asked happily, "Are Granny Tao and Bai Niu also here?"

"It's all here, up there. Gu Dazhong nodded.

"I'm going to see them. Yang Chu said subconsciously, but then thought of the teacher's explanation when he came: "Why don't you point me where they are, I'll just stand far away and take a look, the teacher won't let you leave the team." ”

"Yang Chu, what are you doing, how did you explain it when you came?" As soon as his words fell, the teacher who accompanied the team shouted angrily.

I don't know what the Education Bureau is crazy about, so I have to organize students to come to Zhucheng to climb high. So before coming, the school leader gave a death order, and the teacher didn't think that the students in the class would have an accident, and the teacher would never be spared.

"Hello, I'm Yang Chu's uncle, my name is Gu Dazhong. After a while, Yang Chu followed me and wanted to go over there. Gu Dazhong pointed to the main peak of Zhu Mountain with a smile and said, "I greeted your principal about this matter, and he agreed, otherwise I would not have been able to find Yang Chu so accurately." ”

Yang Chu, who ran over and wanted to reprimand a few words, was stunned for a moment and believed a little.

After all, in order to ensure the safety of students, the school did make a careful plan before, and there were more than 1,000 students in more than 40 classes in the school. How to line up the mountain If people who don't know the order come to find someone, it's really hard to find.

At the same time, he also sounded the words of the principal's mysterious explanation before leaving: "Whoever has an accident with a student in his class is responsible, but if a student's parents lead a student to the main peak, the teacher who leads the team cannot stop it." ”

"Are you really his uncle?"

"Of course it's true, he's in his second year of high school, and he's not a kindergarten kid, so he can be cheated away with just a piece of candy. Gu Dazhong said with a smile.

The class teacher looked at Yang Chu, although Yang Chu didn't understand why Gu Dazhong wanted to take him away. However, thinking that Bai Niu and other orphanage children also came, and the orphanage was not manpowered, and he could still help watch it in the past, so he nodded.

"Okay, you sign. The class teacher took out a small notebook from his backpack, apparently prepared.

Gu Dazhong didn't say anything and signed his name directly.

The class teacher instructed Yang Chu to pay attention to his safety, and hurriedly ran back to continue to guard the team.

"Take this one and put it on. Seeing the teacher leave, Gu Dazhong turned around and walked up with Yang Chu, took out a small cloth bag from his pocket and threw it over.

Yang Chu subconsciously caught the small cloth bag, and then said, "I don't need Uncle Gu, I have it myself." ”

Yang Chu shook the palm-sized cloth bag around his waist. The students who went to school today were empty-handed, but each of them carried a small cloth bag with a red fruit in it, which was a dogwood.

Compared with the exquisiteness of the small cloth bags prepared by the parents of other students, Yang Chu's is a little shabby. He cut a section of the warehouse pipe directly from the top of the pants that he could not wear, and then sewed the bottom of it, and tied ropes on both sides of the bag and carried it on his body.

However, although the materials and workmanship of the cloth bag are not good, Yang Chu's dogwood is full of dogwood, which looks very festive.

"That's so much, let you take it, who stipulates that you can only wear one dogwood sac during the Double Ninth Festival, you can't wear two?" Gu Dazhong glared at Yang Chu angrily.

"Oh. Yang Chu didn't dare to refute, and hurriedly hung the cloth bag given by Gu Dazhong on the other side of his waist.
