"Where am I skinned...... I was notoriously honest in the third middle school. Liu Xu said with a look of grievance.

Chen Yuan shook his head and smiled, too lazy to deal with him, turned to Liu Xu's mother, and said with a smile: "Auntie, don't listen to his nonsense, go to the city to treat him well." ”

Liu's mother is an honest and responsible rural woman, listening to Chen Yuan's words, she smiled lightly: "Liu Xu, you learn more from Chen Yuan, don't be like a child who hasn't grown up all day long." ”

"Okay......" Liu Xu heard his mother's words, so he had to admit it, raised his hand and said, "Mom, I listen to you." ”

In the middle of the month, everyone at the table pushed the cup and changed the lamp.

After three rounds of drinking, Zhao Yougen asked with concern: "Chen Yuan, will you leave early tomorrow morning, won't you stay for a few more days?"

"It's too late," Chen Yuan said, "I have to rush back to participate in the 'summer training camp' on June 22, and the time is relatively tight." ”

Zhao Yougen sighed, "I heard that all the people in the southern suburbs of our slums are going to move to the temporary reserve in the south of Linjiang City, and the next time we meet, I don't know when." ”

"Don't worry, we'll see you again. Chen Yuan said slowly, "Besides, it is still unknown whether the slums will break out in the 'Demon Beast Tide'...... When this turmoil passes, we can all come back again. ”

"Really?" Zhao Yougen's eyes lit up, "Can we come back?"

"Of course. Chen Yuan said firmly.

Uncle Zhang on the side coughed twice and said slowly, "I have an old bone, it doesn't matter if I get it back or not, it's a small plug ......."

Chen Yuan thought for a while and said, "There is also a school in the temporary reserve, and the little bolt can be enrolled nearby, and I will also take the time to go over to see him, I believe that with the talent of the little bolt, he will soon be able to emerge and survive in the city." ”

"That's good, that's good......"

When Uncle Zhang heard Chen Yuan say this, his hanging heart suddenly let go of a lot, raised his thin arm and wiped a handful of tears, and said in a trembling voice: "This child has no parents since he was a child, and the 'old madman' has left it alone, in this world, only a few of you can take care of him, if the little bolt can become a talent, even if I enter the coffin, I will have the face to see his crazy 'grandfather'." ”

After listening to Uncle Zhang, everyone at the table was silent.

The little bolt was even more red-eyed, desperately holding back tears.

At this moment, Chen Yuan's mother, Guo Weilan, brought a pot of hot mushroom and shredded meat soup to the table, and said with a smile: "It's rare for everyone to have a meal together, and tomorrow we will go our separate ways, so today we will eat more vegetables, drink more wine, and don't talk about anything else." ”

Chen Kexiong also stood up from his seat with a wine glass, and said movingly: "This glass, I respect everyone, no matter where we are, we must live well!"

After speaking, he drank the spirits in the cup.

Zhao Yougen's nose was sour, and he immediately raised his wine glass, "Okay, for Kexiong's words, it's done!"

His voice was not small, and when he roared out, it immediately played an excellent role in calling for help.

At the round table, Uncle Zhang, Liu Xu's mother and son, Guo Weilan, and Chen Yuan raised their glasses together and poured the liquor into their throats.

The little plug is young, and there are only drinks in the cup.

Seeing that everyone was drinking, he secretly poured a glass and tasted it, but his choked cheeks were red, jumping up and down, and he kept fanning his tongue with his hands, making everyone laugh.

The atmosphere of parting also faded a little inadvertently.

Seven or eight. Old friends, three or five wines and dishes.

Raise a glass and talk about it.

In the simple courtyard of the farmhouse, bursts of laughter rang out from time to time.

Chen Yuan was in the middle of it, and he was also quite emotional in his heart.

This is the happiness of the countrymen, maybe there are no delicacies from the mountains and seas, jade plates, but everywhere there is the most simple human touch in the countryside.

After eating a meal for more than two hours, everyone dispersed one after another.

Zhao Yougen was so drunk that he was carried home by Chen Kexiong, and he was still shouting that he would open the largest chain butcher shop in Linjiang.

Uncle Zhang was injured and couldn't drink too much, and after a few drinks, he was helped home by a small bolt.

Mother Liu and Guo Weilan were busy cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and they were very busy.

Since they had to go out the next day, neither Chen Yuan nor Liu Xu drank much.

They came to the courtyard together, and lay on the thatched stack to watch the stars.

In the dark night sky, the stars are dotted like dazzling pearls on a huge black carpet. The evening breeze of the summer night swept through the quiet cottage and gently brushed the cheeks of the two teenagers.

Liu Xu took a dog's tail grass in his mouth and sighed: "Unexpectedly, this time not only are we leaving, but even Uncle Zhang, Xiao Zhuzi, and Uncle Zhao are going to move collectively, the world is changing too fast, it's really unexpected." ”

"This is the safest way to do it at the moment. Chen Yuandao, "The official has confirmed that this 'demon beast tide' is nationwide, how much impact and harm it will cause, it is still impossible to predict, before the disaster comes, it is natural to transfer as many people as possible." ”

"Chen Yuan, how terrifying is the 'Demon Beast Tide'?"

Liu Xu suddenly asked, "I only heard my dad say it once when I was a child, he said that every monster beast is the size of a car, and some are particularly huge, even taller than a floor, and there are some flying monsters, which are more fierce than a group of fighter jets, these are all true?"

"It's true. Chen Yuan nodded and said, "So this world is still in a state of danger at any time, and if these otherworldly invaders are not expelled for a day, the peace of mankind will always be threatened." ”

Liu Xu said with emotion: "There is a saying in the ancient book that there is no time to be quiet, but someone is carrying the weight for you, this sentence is still outdated now......"

"Of course. Chen Yuan said: "After the great changes in heaven and earth, including Huaxia, every country in the world is under tremendous pressure to defend it, and in places we can't see, countless powerful warriors are uniting their armies to fight to the death against the invaders from other worlds. What they give is not something we can imagine. ”

"Hey...... After all this experience, I have a lot more things in my head than before, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. Liu Xuan looked at the deep night sky and said, "It would be great if I could always be as heartless as I was when I was a child." ”

"People have to grow up. Chen Yuan turned his head to look at him and said, "What we have to do is to use all means to make ourselves strong, only in this way can we protect ourselves and the most important people around us, right?"

"Hmm," Liu Xuan nodded heavily, stretched out a hand, and said, "Come on." ”

"Let's do it together. Chen Yuan smiled faintly, and the palms of the two were tightly clasped together.

......

......

Early the next morning, from

The school bus from Linjiang University stopped on time outside the small courtyard in front of Chen Yuan's house.

Chen Kexiong and Guo Weilan had already prepared their luggage, and at this time, they were working with Chen Yuan to carry the luggage one by one into the trunk of the car.

After settling their families and getting into the car, Chen Yuan and Liu Xu stood in front of the car door and said goodbye to the old folks who came to see them off one by one.

The little bolt was the first to rush up, hugging Chen Yuan and crying loudly.

Chen Yuan gently stroked the head of the little bolt and said: "Bolt, you remember, no matter where you go in the future, you have to redouble your efforts to practice, our conditions are not as good as the children in the city in all aspects, only by paying more time and effort, can you have the capital to compete with others, with your talent, as long as you are not lazy, it is not too difficult to get ahead, come on." ”

The little bolt's eyes were full of tears, and he said in a trembling voice: "Chen ...... Brother Chen Yuan, you must wait for me, when I grow up, like you, go to Linjiang University, and when I am out, I will help you fight the bad guys together. ”

"Okay, that's a deal. Chen Yuan smiled slightly, while wiping away tears for the little plug.

Zhao Yougen stepped forward with two bags, couldn't help but say, and stuffed it directly into Chen Yuan's hand, and said: "Xiao Yuanzi, your Uncle Zhao has nothing to give you, this is your aunt's own pickled jerky, it is very fragrant, you take it with you on the road to eat, if it is not enough, give me a call, I will have someone send it to you." ”

"Thank you, Uncle Zhao," Chen Yuan said with gratitude in his eyes as he took the two heavy bags of jerky.

Uncle Zhang took out a simple wooden box from his backpack, handed it to him, and said: "There are some worthless herbs here, you can also bring them by the way, the medicine was dug up by myself on the mountain, and the effect of treating external injuries is okay, you cultivate this and that all day long, this thing should be able to come in handy." ”

Chen Yuan opened the wooden box, and a strong medicinal fragrance suddenly came to his nose.

His eyes flashed, and he said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhang, these medicinal materials are very useful to me." ”

Several people exchanged greetings for a while, Chen Yuan waved at his father and fellow villagers, and said, "We are going to go, and when we arrive in Linjiang in the future, we will definitely have the opportunity to see you again." ”

"Don't send it, let's go back," Liu Xu also said on the side: "When you arrive in Linjiang, remember to contact often." ”

"Go ahead. Uncle Zhao said with red eyes.

Uncle Zhang also waved his hand and said, "Let's go, be careful all the way." ”

"Brother Chen Yuan, Brother Fat, you must come to see me when you have time!" The little bolt waved his hand vigorously, and his little face was crying dirty.

"Definitely. Chen Yuan nodded solemnly, walked on the school bus with Liu Xu, and closed the door.

The car slowly moved forward, Chen Yuan poked his head out of the window, and waved to everyone again.

After another moment, the car gradually drove away, and the figure behind it began to gradually become smaller.

At this moment, the little bolt desperately broke free from Uncle Zhang's palm and chased all the way towards the school bus, with tears in his eyes, and shouted loudly, "Brother Chen Yuan......!"

It's a pity that the car has driven too far, and Chen Yuan can't see him running.

The little bolt chased for a while, and finally stopped because of physical exhaustion.

He bent down, supported his knees with his hands, looked up at the back of the school bus and walked away, and wiped away his tears vigorously, "Brother Chen Yuan, you believe me, the little bolt will definitely get ahead, and one day, I will definitely become a person like you!"
