Text Chapter 6 Outside the Mountain, the hearts of the people are better than the tigers
In the past, the old god always boasted that he had caught an eagle in the sky, touched a turtle in the sea, traveled through the mountains and seas, and had seen a thorough look at his life. Lu Shanmin scoffed at the cowhide boasted by the old god stick, but after last night's incident, Lu Shanmin found that the old god stick still had a sentence right, 'The hearts of people outside the mountain are better than the tiger'.
What happened last night made Lu Shanmin instinctively alert, this is the nature of the hunter, into the Harrier Mountain to hunt, even if you are familiar with the situation in the mountains, if you spend the night in the mountains, you will definitely choose a high and flat place, the camp around the ditch should also be dug a good drainage ditch, spread grass and wood ashes, eat the rest of the food to dig a pit and bury it deeply, sloppy half a point may be buried in the mouth of the beast in the sleep.
In the eyes of Lu Shanmin, this is also a mountain, the difference is that there are no poisonous snakes and beasts in this mountain, but there is a suspicion of people's hearts. All night, I was half-asleep and half-awake, and in my sleep I dreamed of my grandfather's kind smile, and I dreamed of the high-rise buildings and bright lights that Bai Ling said.
Get up early in the morning, wash up, play a Tai Chi tour, take out the four treasures of the study, more than ten years of habits, except for special circumstances, Lu Shanmin will copy Zhao Mengfu's words every day, today, Lu Shanmin did not open the notebook, just write on the paper one by one, 'outside the mountain, the heart of the heart is better than the tiger' seven big characters.
Said to be a city, in Lu Shanmin's view, Luliang County is not necessarily bigger than Mazui Village, from the passers-by can ask the line to the railway station, walked for more than ten minutes to the railway station,
Standing in the bustling crowd, Lu Shanmin was shocked and dumbfounded, this was the first time he had seen so many people, head to head, heel to heel, in the flow of people, Lu Shanmin was almost squeezed into the train station.
This kind of lively scene is so grand for Lu Shanmin, who grew up in the mountains, but Lu Shanmin doesn't feel lively at all, but instead feels lonely, the people of Mazui Village, even if there are strangers from outside, will come forward to say hello, and the people here are just moving their feet mechanically, even the people standing next to them, no one will care about taking a look.
Walking into the carriage, Lu Shanmin frowned, a foul smell came to his nose, mixed with the smell of feet, sweat, boiled eggs, and instant noodles, as for many other tastes, it can't be described, it's not that Lu Shanmin's nose can't tell it, as a hunter, he is more sensitive than most people's noses, I really haven't smelled that smell, I don't know what it is.
Lu Shanmin found his position, and there were already people sitting next to him and opposite, Lu Shanmin glanced at them, and looked at the appearance of those people, they should be scholars, one of them was wearing glasses, and the other looked more Sven, both in their twenties, and they didn't look as rude as most people in the carriage, at least they looked more like cultural people than themselves.
Lu Shanmin pointed to the outermost window position, and motioned to the person sitting on the outermost side to give way, and the man looked up at Lu Shanmin, who was dressed in gray cloth clothes and pants and stepped on rubber shoes, with a trace of undisguised disdain on his face. In this era, this outfit can be put into the museum. The man leaned sideways in displeasure, and said 'It's really unlucky'.
Lu Shanmin ignored it, sat straight in his position, and quietly looked out the window. Sitting across from him were two girls, and sitting next to him was a boy. From their conversations, it can be heard that the three should be fresh graduates of a university in the city, and this trip is to go to the East China Sea to find a better job.
In the words, the two girls were somewhat worried about this trip, saying that in a metropolis like Donghai, as an ordinary university graduate with a little-known name, they were afraid that they would not be able to find a good job.
The boy was much more optimistic, and said with a confident face, "Don't worry, look at these people on the train, how many of them have gone to college, they can all go to the East China Sea to make a living, we are better than them." As he spoke, he squinted his eyes and pouted in the direction of Lu Shanmin.
Lu Shanmin pretended not to see it, and he didn't get angry because of the other party's contempt, he was a college student, a real reader, he read more books than himself, and he saw more of the world than himself, so he was naturally better than himself. It's just that I don't understand one thing, grandpa said that the biggest difference between a scholar and a person who doesn't read is that a scholar understands 'benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith', and the college student next to him obviously lost the word 'li'.
The boy lifted his glasses and said with a smile: "Zhang Li, we are the best graduates in the department, when we arrive in the East China Sea, the dragon enters the sea, and the tiger goes down the mountain, maybe we can buy a car and a house in the East China Sea within two or three years." ”
The girl next to Zhang Li pursed her lips, "Chen Kun, I only know that you are a well-known cowhide king in the department." The house price in the East China Sea is tens of thousands of square meters, and many people can't afford it in their lifetime. ”
Lu Shanmin next to him was stunned for a moment, glanced at the girl who spoke just now in disbelief, and subconsciously pinched the five thousand yuan in his bag, thinking that if what she said was true, he might only have enough money to buy a place to put needles.
Seeing that Lu Shanmin glanced at herself, the girl raised her head arrogantly and continued: "I advise you to learn from those migrant workers, be pragmatic, go to the East China Sea to work for a few years, earn some money and go home to marry a village girl, don't fantasize about our family Lili anymore." ”
Chen Kun's face darkened, and the other party actually compared himself with the migrant workers around him, still in front of the woman he liked, "Huangmei, we are all college students, how can those migrant workers be compared to us." ”
Zhang Li was full of apprehension about the trip to the East China Sea, and she had not been in much mood to speak, seeing that Chen Kun was talking more and more excessively, she glanced at Lu Shanmin and frowned, "Don't say it, you also know that you are a college student, a migrant worker, and you are not ashamed." ”
"Me?" Chen Kun's face turned crimson, and he also realized that what he said just now was a little too much, so he glared at Huang Mei fiercely, and stopped talking in a muffled voice.
Lu Shanmin looked at the girl named Zhang Li, with a melon seed face, long hair, fair skin, very good-looking, at first glance, she was a beautiful girl, and thought that she should be the most well-read among these people. The girl smiled a little apologetically at Lu Shanmin.
The train stopped halfway, and the people who got off the train were crowded in the narrow carriage passage, and a middle-aged man inadvertently squeezed Huang Mei. Huang Mei looked up unhappily: "Look at the point when you walk." Chen Kun and Zhang Li were attracted by Huang Mei's voice and looked up at the man. The middle-aged man looked vicious, and shouted at the top of his voice: "There are so many people, you don't know how to let go." Zhang Li saw that the middle-aged man looked five big and three thick and very rude, and said to Huang Mei: "Forget it." ”
Chen Kun plucked up the courage to say something, but when he saw that the other party was fierce and vicious, he quickly swallowed his words back. As he was talking, a man behind the middle-aged man stretched out a hand holding a blade from under the man's armpit, and when the three of them were not paying attention, he quickly cut off Huang Mei's cross-facing backpack, and pulled the backpack into the crowd. All this can't escape the eyes of Lu Shanmin's hunters, but Lu Shanmin didn't plan to make a move, the girl named Huang Mei just now looked down on herself, which can be regarded as self-inflicted. As a hunter who has killed countless lives, he has never been a bad guy.
Huang Mei sat there angrily, subconsciously touched the bag on her waist, and shouted, "The bag is gone." ”
Chen Kun and Zhang Li were taken aback, "It must be the person just now, chase after it." ”
Chen Kun didn't dare to hesitate, got up, and rushed outside to chase after him.
Huang Mei burst into tears in panic, "What can I do, all the money of the three of us is in the bag." ”
Zhang Li was also panicked, nervously grabbed Huang Mei's hand, the family conditions of the three were not good, this time they went to the Donghai three's house and finally scraped together 15,000 yuan, if they lost it here, how to go to the East China Sea, and how to explain to the family.
Lu Shanmin frowned, if it was just Huangmei's bag that was lost, maybe he really wouldn't have made a move, grandpa's books said 'Cast it with peach and plum, repay it with Qiongju', Zhang Li gave herself a smile just now, there was no reason for her to cry. Lu Shanmin knew that the bag was not in the hands of the middle-aged man, and Chen Kun would definitely not be able to find the backpack when he went.
Lu Shanmin propped up his hands, picked up the person in front of him, and rushed to the car door with a brisk stride, and the sound of Chen Kun and the middle-aged man pulling was heard at the door of the car.
On the train, the two girls were extremely discouraged, Huang Mei couldn't cry, Chen Kun sighed with a lonely face, and there were obvious traces of being slapped on his face. The train whistle sounded, and the trio, drenched in pain, had no idea that there was one less person in the seat next to them.
The train moved slowly, and the mood of the three of them was extremely low.
"Smack", a red backpack fell on the small table in front of the seat, looking at the lost backpack, Huang Mei hugged it in her arms and cried, Zhang Li's sad face showed a smile, and Chen Kun breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Let's go. ”
Only then did the three of them find Lu Shanmin standing next to them. Chen Kun hurriedly got up and got out of the way.
Lu Shanmin sat down and glanced at Huang Mei, "It's going to be put away this time." ”
Huang Mei hugged the backpack in her arms tightly and said with tears in her eyes: "Thank you."
Lu Shanmin smiled and glanced at Zhang Li, "Don't thank me, you should thank her." ”
Zhang Li looked at Lu Shanmin inexplicably, "Thank me?"
Lu Shanmin said lightly, "If you can smile at me, I can't watch you cry." ”
