Going to Qingping Mountain is an important part of Zhang Chi's festival plan, the reason is Qin Luzhu's active invitation, and he also wants to ask Qin Luzhu in front of him, did she have a plan to enter the New World School of Management when she first entered the New World School of Management?

There is still no news of Li Yuejin, this person is like suddenly evaporating from the world, Zhang Chi is very worried.

One of the main reasons for going to Qingping Mountain this time was Li Yuejin, hoping to hear some news about him from Principal Li of Hongxing Primary School.

After meeting Xiaowen, Zhang Chi has decided not to deliberately meet her in the future, including Master Huang Chunli, although they encounter any trouble, he will still appear as soon as possible, but this does not mean that he should appear frequently in their lives, and if he is really good to a person, don't interfere with the other party's peaceful life.

When Zhang Chi arrived at the exit of Chenghai Railway Station, he saw Qin Luzhu waiting for him there.

Qin Luzhu was a little darker than the last time she saw her, pierced her head, and stood lazily in the sun on her motorcycle, one with long legs half bent and the other stretched straight. Zhang Daxian is only envious of her long legs, and he still can't catch up with him anyway.

When Qin Luzhu saw him, he didn't show any joy at reuniting after a long absence, and waved his hand at him. A black base shirt, a khaki jacket, graphite blue slim jeans, and a pair of brown hiking boots on his feet are still unkempt.

Zhang Chi didn't have any luggage, only brought a backpack, and came to Qin Luzhu to greet him: "Hello Principal Qin!"

Qin Luzhu looked at him with disgust: "Stand up, look at you hooligan, you came back to learn this skill in Shuimu?"

Zhang Chi smiled: "I thought you wouldn't recognize me." "Obviously getting taller and more handsome, how can Qin Luzhu still recognize himself at a glance?

Qin Luzhu said: "It's a little longer, but your obscene temperament still makes you a mudslide in the crowd." She stood up and compared with Zhang Chi.

Zhang Chi was very depressed and found that he was still a little shorter than her, and Qin Luzhu's hiking boots had heels.

Zhang Chi said, "Principal Qin, are you here to pick me up?"

"You're so beautiful, I'll take care of the locomotive, and I'll pick you up by the way. Qin Luzhu's voice was not loud, but Zhang Chi could hear it clearly.

Qin Luzhu got on the motorcycle, took off a helmet and threw it to him, Zhang Chi caught it, and put the helmet on. came to Qin Luzhu and sat down, his hands honestly grasping the luggage rack behind him.

Principal Qin's thin waist can't be touched casually. The head of a man and the waist of a woman can be seen but not moved.

Qin Luzhu started the motorcycle and put on the helmet, she usually doesn't like to wear a helmet very much, but the traffic police in Chenghai are more strict, and she doesn't want to trouble.

Qin Luzhu's driving style has become more and more wild, and now she is very familiar with this road, and she returned to Sifangping in less than an hour and a half.

Before entering Hongxing Primary School, Qin Luzhu warned Zhang Chi not to call her Principal Qin again, the old principal Li Aiguo is back, and he is the real head of the school.

The old principal didn't know that Zhang Chi would come, and Qin Luzhu hadn't given him a letter before, so it was a surprise to see Zhang Chi.

Taking advantage of Qin Luzhu's absence, the old principal poured bitter water, don't look at Qin Luzhu's short time, but it can cause him a lot of trouble, since the old principal returned to school, he has received many complaints from local mountain people, although there are not many principled problems, but it is enough for the old principal to have a headache, and she can pay a lot of money.

The old principal couldn't listen to the mountain people's words, and through nearly two weeks of observation and getting along with each other after coming back, he found that many of Qin Luzhu's practices were not even used to him.

The old principal is not a person who talks about right and wrong behind people's backs, and he has no place to say, Zhang Chi is Qin Luzhu's friend, he wants to understand Qin Luzhu's true attitude through Zhang Chi, but the old principal is still sure in Qin Luzhu's teaching, he is serious and can endure hardships, but his temper is not good.

Qin Luzhu knocked on the door and came in at this time, and said to Zhang Chi: "Zhang Chi, hide here and be lazy, hurry up and cook." ”

The old principal couldn't help but laugh and said, "Xiao Zhang is a distinguished guest, I'll go." ”

Zhang Chi smiled: "Principal, you better rest, or I'll go, Teacher Qin likes to eat the dishes I make." ”

Walking towards the kitchen with Qin Luzhu, Qin Luzhu turned around and looked behind him, and said in a low voice, "Principal Li said bad things about me, right?"

"The heart of a villain is the belly of a gentleman. ”

Qin Luzhu laughed, the two came to the kitchen and saw a rustic uncle busy there, but it was Principal Li's male nanny, it turned out that Principal Li went back to the provincial capital this time and got sick, and his children didn't want him to come back, but the old principal insisted on coming, and the children couldn't resist him, so they discussed a compromise and helped Principal Li hire an acquaintance to take care of him locally.

This uncle is also surnamed Li, called Li Hongsheng, he worked as a barefoot doctor when he was young, and he knows some medical skills, but he has no certificate. Usually he is here to help with miscellaneous cooking or something, and the salary is paid by Principal Li's children, so it seems that Principal Li's children are also very filial.

Qin Luzhu was very disgusted with this uncle, thinking that this person was clumsy and not good at cooking, but in fact, people didn't come to take care of her.

Zhang Chi put a cigarette on Li Hongsheng, asked Li Hongsheng to rest, took the initiative to take over the kitchen work, and washed the rooster he had just killed.

Qin Luzhu went outside to clean the dishes and chopsticks, and when he came back, he saw that Zhang Chi had already stewed the chicken, and a few fish had been processed, and when he saw the box of cigarettes on the stove, Qin Luzhu walked over and took out a point from it.

Zhang Chi said: "Didn't you quit smoking?"

Qin Luzhu sighed and said: "I'm suffocating, I've been facing two old men all day lately, one is like a lump of wood, three sticks can't hit a stuffy fart, and although the other is smiling at me all day long, he is thinking about how to drive me away." ”

Zhang Chi laughed, he really couldn't figure it out, Qin Luzhu was idle and had nothing to do, let the bustling capital not go back, what were you doing in this ravine? The old Qin family was not a simple person, and they were not normal, Zhang Chi remembered that she took the initiative to come over by herself, and asked, "Is there something urgent about you looking for me?"

Qin Luzhu said: "There's nothing urgent, I just want you to accompany me to Lingxi Peak." ”

Zhang Chi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was Lingxi Peak and not Canglongling Unicorn Peak, he had been to Lingxi Peak once, and that time was when he was looking for immortal grass with Li Yuejin, Qin Luzhu had been here for so long, with her temper, she didn't even have to climb Lingxi Peak, why wait for herself to climb together, it is estimated that there are other ideas.

Thinking of being admitted to the New World School of Management, Qin Lao had already explained to him before that someone handed him his black materials to the school, because of the influence of his grandfather Zhang Qingshui, he almost didn't cross the threshold of Shuimu.

If it weren't for Qin Luzhu's help, he wouldn't have been able to enter the New World School of Management smoothly.

Qin Luzhu took a puff of cigarette and exhaled a cloud of smoke and said, "I recommended the New World School of Management to you, you won't blame me without your permission, right?"

Zhang Chi smiled: "It's too late for me to thank you." ”

Qin Luzhu said: "I don't ask you to thank me, just ask you not to blame me." ”

Zhang Chi said: "How is it possible." "When I came back to see Qin Luzhu this time, I always felt that I didn't have the kind of open-mindedness and freedom to speak my mind like at the beginning, as if there was some estrangement.

Qin Luzhu chuckled, she winked at Zhang Chi and said, "We don't need to discuss this issue, I just want to ask you one thing, have you ever met Bai Xiao in Lingxi Peak?"

Zhang Chi nodded, he already understood Qin Luzhu's real intention of letting him come over, he had told Qin Lao about white millet, Qin Lao was also very concerned about it at that time, and it seemed that he had already told Qin Luzhu about it.

Combining the two, Zhang Chi faintly felt that Qin Luzhu's appearance here to teach might have a great relationship with Bai Xiaomi.

Zhang Chi said: "I remember the route up the mountain, but the white millet may not still be here." ”

Qin Luzhu said: "You just need to take me to the place where you met her at the beginning." ”

"Good!"

Zhang Chi stayed in Hongxing Primary School that night, and listened to Principal Li say that the Education Bureau has expressed its position in response to the current situation of Hongxing Primary School, and is ready to allocate a support fund to Hongxing Primary School, and will also solve the problem of teacher shortage in the near future.

Zhang Chi also heard the meaning of the old principal's words, the difficulties of Hongxing Primary School were almost solved, and Qin Luzhu, the volunteer teacher, was insignificant, all in all, Qin Luzhu was not popular here.

Of course, Qin Luzhu could understand, but he smiled disapprenously: "Captain Li, I will go out with Zhang Chi tomorrow, and I won't come back in the next few days, don't cook for us." ”

The old principal was stunned for a moment: "Go out?" Then he nodded and said: "Also, there is nothing fun in this poor ravine, you go, anyway, it's a holiday." ”

Qin Luzhu ate some casually, then got up and went to the big tree, sat on the stone mill and lit a cigarette.

The old principal looked at it from a distance, shook his head, sighed and said, "Look at it, look at it, a people's teacher is still a girl and actually smokes." ”

Li Hongsheng nodded in agreement.

Zhang Chi knew about Qin Luzhu's smoking, and he smiled: "She also smokes in front of students?"

The old headmaster was stunned for a moment, "Is that so?" ”

Zhang Chi could perceive Qin Luzhu's current embarrassing situation, and with her maverick temperament, she naturally would not take the eyes of outsiders seriously.

Sifangping is relatively closed, the mountain people here are conservative in tradition, Qin Luzhu has too many deviant factors, although she is a woman, but her body is full of edges and corners, and she is sharp in her work.

Thinking about it, Qin Luzhu does have the qualifications to do her own thing, her background and background determine that she does not have to choose to back down when dealing with the relationships around her, and she is different from her.

Before dawn came, Zhang Chi and Qin Luzhu had already embarked on the journey to Lingxi Peak, Zhang Chi still remembered the way Li Yuejin took him over last time, and guided Qin Luzhu to the small parking lot at the bottom of the mountain.

After a period of time, I didn't expect that the temporary parking lot of the red soil also erected a sign, which said that temporary parking, 10 yuan for large cars and 5 yuan for small cars.

A white-bearded old man has been standing there for a long time waiting to collect money, there are already three cars in the parking lot, CCTV recently reported on the Qingping Mountain tourism, and then the heat here suddenly increased, although the back mountain is closed, but there are still a lot of hikers who like to camp here, and the local people naturally see the business opportunities in the parking lot.

The old man was quite simple, and asked them for two yuan, and Qin Luzhu directly gave him twenty yuan, asking him to help wash the motorcycle when he was free.

When he started to climb the mountain, the sky was already bright, and the old man came over again and asked them if they wanted a guide, Qin Luzhu declined his offer and began to advance along the path towards Lingxi Peak.

Although it was the beginning of October, the morning in the mountain was already a little cold, Zhang Chi still did not wear professional mountaineering clothes, but specially changed into a pair of Li Ning hiking shoes. Although Lingxi Peak is the first peak of Qingping Mountain, the difficulty of climbing is several levels worse than that of Unicorn Peak.

Qin Luzhu asked about Zhang Chi's school on the way, Zhang Chi briefly talked about it, because the school has regulations, he didn't mention anything about special abilities, he thought that Qin Luzhu must know about the New World School of Management, and even knew more about the inside story than him, since Qin Luzhu didn't mention it, he didn't take the initiative to say that although he didn't care about the confidentiality agreement, he should abide by it since he signed it.

At noon, they had a short break halfway up the mountain, Zhang Chi identified the surrounding terrain, recognized the place where he and Li Yuejin were separated last time, he pointed to the front and said, "I rolled down the hill in front of me at that time. ”

After listening to him describe the details, Qin Luzhu couldn't help but lean back and laugh. She went ahead to explore the road first, and after walking a few steps, Zhang Chi followed.

Qin Luzhu quipped: "You're not afraid of falling again?"

Zhang Chi said: "The last time the incident happened suddenly, I was mentally prepared this time. In fact, if it wasn't for the sudden news of a skunk last time, he wouldn't have been so frightened that he lost his balance and rolled down the hill.

Qin Luzhu asked Zhang Chi to come to her side, really worried that this guy would fall down from behind and push himself down the slope by the way. Zhang Chi's body is much more flexible now than in the past, but the increase in height has also caused the center of gravity to move up, so try to lower the center of gravity when going downhill.

The two came to the flat ground in the middle smoothly, Zhang Chi remembered that he had rolled all the way from the hillside to this place last time, and then rushed over the flat land for a moment due to inertia, and fell directly under the cliff in front of him.

Qin Luzhu came to the edge of the cliff and looked at it, visually measuring the height of about twenty meters, the rocks below were distributed, Zhang Chi was not killed by the fall, this guy was really fateful, looked around, there were wild grasses everywhere, there were few people in this area, there was a mountain stream not far from their right, leading to the bottom of the cliff.

Zhang Chi took Qin Luzhu from the woods on the right side to the bottom of the cliff with his memory, and he found the place where he fell last time by the waterhole, and he could still see the pebble that was broken by his own skin.

Qin Luzhu said, "Why did you come here last time?" Zhang Chi never told her the purpose of coming here.

Zhang Chi pointed to the opposite side of the mountain stream: "Have you ever heard of the immortal grass?" I came here to find the immortal grass, and it took no effort to find the immortal grass on the cliff over there. ”

Qin Luzhu waded over, came to the place Zhang Chi pointed to, held the mountain stone with both hands, and leaned against the cliff wall with his pretty face, as if listening to something.

Zhang Chi didn't follow the past, so he found a stone nearby and sat down, thinking to himself in his heart, the place where the treasures of heaven and earth are bred usually has the spirit of the rhino, not to mention anything else, Qingping Mountain has found a lot of treasures, proving that Qingping Mountain may be the place where a certain immortal used to practice, maybe there is an abandoned immortal cave house hidden here.

Qin Luzhu banged on the edge of the cliff, and she took some samples, including water, soil, ore, and plants.

As a bystander, Zhang Chi did not disturb Qin Luzhu's work, thinking that Qin Luzhu was like a professional geological exploration worker, and he even thought that the real purpose of Qin Luzhu coming to Hongxing Primary School to teach was this. After looking at the time, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and according to Qin Luzhu's pre-made plan, they were camping on the mountain tonight. Judging from the current situation, there should be no going back.

The sun was very good, Zhang Chi found a flat land, laid out a moisture-proof mat, lay there comfortably to make up for a nap, and slept soundly, his mobile phone suddenly rang.

Zhang Chi rubbed his eyes, picked up the mobile phone and saw that it was Li Yuejin's name, Zhang Daxian thought that he had seen it wrong, sat up and connected the phone, as soon as he said a word here, the phone was broken, and he looked down and looked at the phone again, there was no signal.

Zhang Chi got up and held up his mobile phone to find a signal, but the connection still failed, although he failed to call Li Yuejin successfully, but at least it proved that Li Yuejin had nothing to do and took the initiative to call him, and waited until the signal was better.

Qin Luzhu was busy for three hours before finishing her work, carrying her backpack back to Zhang Chi's side, and said with an apologetic smile: "I've kept you waiting for a long time." ”

Zhang Chi talked about Li Yuejin calling him just now, Qin Luzhu took out his phone and looked at it, her mobile phone is three-proof, and the signal is relatively strong, but there is no signal at the bottom of this valley. Looking up, they were right in the belly of the valley, and the surrounding cliffs blocked cell phone signals.

It's just that the sky that was clear just now became a little gloomy at this time, Zhang Chi also found out about this situation, they specially looked at the weather forecast before climbing the mountain, and it was clear that there was no rain, but the weather in the mountain was more changeable than the child's face.

Qin Luzhu observed the clouds and said, "Let's go up first, in case it rains, the rain around will flow here, and the water in the pool may skyrocket." ”

Zhang Chi pointed to the right front and said, "I remember that she should have gone in this direction at the beginning." At that time, he couldn't open his eyes because he was nervous, but his ears could hear it, and when he heard Bai Mi humming a song and went away, he went in this direction.

Qin Luzhu nodded and said, "Let's go this way too." ”

The two did not choose to return the same way, but walked into the jungle ahead, because of the altitude, many of the leaves on the Lingxi Peak had begun to dye red, walking in the woods, from time to time there were leaves falling with the wind. Entering the depths of the woods, I actually saw a path, the path should have been unwalked for a while, and there were a lot of wild grass growing on the road, but I could still distinguish the marks of the road.

Continuing to follow this road, he felt that it was not uphill, but slowly downhill, and Zhang Chi said to Qin Luzhu: "This should not be the road up the mountain. ”

Qin Luzhu said: "Let's take a look." ”

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and it wouldn't be long before it got dark. Qin Luzhu was born with a temperament that is not afraid of heaven and earth, Zhang Daxianren's recent increase in force value is not small, plus he carries three strong pills with him, he is also a master of art. He was most worried about the weather, and if it did rain, they wouldn't have a place to take shelter from it.

At the beginning, the two had just met, Zhang Chi risked his life to climb the Unicorn Peak to rescue Qin Luzhu, and that night he had to camp on the Unicorn Peak, and caught up with a rain, Zhang Chi wondered if he didn't offend the Dragon King, why would it rain every time he climbed Qingping Mountain?

The road ahead had come to an end, but in the shadow of the trees stood a lonely stone house, the only one in the barren mountains and mountains, which must have long been deserted.

Qin Luzhu took out his machete and opened the way in front, Zhang Chi observed the surroundings in the back, it was already past the Bailu solar term, and the snakes and insects had basically entered the nest, so there should be no need to worry about the bad luck of encountering poisonous snakes last time.

In fact, Zhang Chi also brought the antidote pill on his body this time, although these partial pills do not enter the avenue, they can be refined with low cost and quick effect, and they are essential products for outdoor self-defense when traveling.

When I came to the stone house, I found that the stone house was really abandoned, the door was locked, and there should have been a courtyard wall around the stone house, but because no one has maintained it for a long time, most of the courtyard walls have collapsed.

There are seven graves of different sizes behind the stone house, which are covered with wild grass, Qin Luzhu is ready to camp on the flat ground outside this stone house, after all, the sky is about to get dark, the autumn wind is blowing, the wind is blowing, the dark clouds are rolling in the air, and an autumn rain is coming.

When they went out, Qin Luzhu prepared outdoor supplies, so Zhang Chi didn't have to worry about this matter, when Qin Luzhu was busy camping, Zhang Chi came to the seven tombs, and looked at the tombstones one by one, he was an immortal who was naturally not afraid of ghosts and gods, and when he came to a tomb, he couldn't help but be taken aback, because the tombstone in front of the tomb was engraved with the name of the tomb owner, which was clearly white millet.

There is also a photo on the tombstone, the appearance is completely different from the white millet in Zhang Chi's memory, looking at the date of death, it was already twelve years ago, Zhang Chi secretly wondered in his heart, could it be that the white millet he met on the train was just an impostor?

Qin Luzhu set up a tent and also found it, and Zhang Chi pointed out the grave of white millet to her.

Qin Luzhu was stunned and said, "Dead?"

Zhang Chi said: "It's not the one I know." ”

Qin Luzhu said: "Of course it's not the one you recognize, this white millet has been dead for twelve years, how can it be possible to save you." ”

Zhang Chi suggested: "Let's set up camp in another place, I always feel that there is an evil aura here." ”

Qin Luzhu smiled: "Are you afraid? In fact, the safest people in this world are the dead, only the dead will not try to calculate you." She picked a bouquet of wild flowers and placed it in front of the tomb of White Millet as an apology for disturbing the peace of the tomb owner.
