"Old man, I brought Yang Bing back, my name is Qin Tian, I am a friend of Yang Bing, and I am also a developer. ”

The old man stopped, stunned for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and quickly grabbed Qin Tian's arm, "Young man, you are just going to come to the big boss who is going to invest in the construction of a primary school in our village!? ”

As he spoke, the old man was about to kneel on the ground.

Qin Tian saw it and hurriedly held it up, "Ouch old man, you can break my life! I have to call you grandpa according to my seniority, you are so polite, I don't have a place to put my face." ”

When the old man heard Qin Tian say this, he patted my arm excitedly: "Good boy." ”

Qin Tian held the old man, and suddenly his head was a little unable to turn - what kind of place is this Hutougang in Baiyuan County!?

Yang Bing didn't hide at this time, and ran over to me and said, "Brother Qin, the sorghum wine made by my grandfather is delicious." ”

"Yes, yes, home-brewed sorghum wine, it's enough, let's go home together now." When the old man heard this, he didn't go to the shopkeeper to collect the money, and he was about to leave with me.

The shopkeeper watched from the side, a little embarrassed, as if he didn't feel that he didn't greet Qin Tian and them, "Hutougang is a good place, you should go, I'll notify Township Chief Yang now." ”

When Yang Laoshui arrived, the old man was surrounded by everyone in the middle of the moon and the stars, the old man was holding a cigarette in his mouth, his arm was on the small table, and he was wrestling with the monkey sitting opposite.

The brothers next to him laughed, the monkey had a lot of face, and held his breath: "Youca."

youup，Noca

o Force, you guys do it, you guys go!"

As soon as he shouted, the brothers all shrank back, seeing that the old man didn't show real strength when he played with the monkey, who would go up to send him to death, then don't wait for shame.

"Lu Wan, you try it with the old man. Qin Tian stood aside, laughing, and when Lu Wan heard this, he also grinned.

Lu Wan is a demoman, and he usually carries nothing but his strength.

"Don't break your arm, old man. With that, Lu Wan sat opposite the old man, his arm stretched out, and the old man's arm stood on the table like an iron beaten, no matter how hard Lu Wan tried, he didn't move at all.

"Old man, take it!" Lu Wan collected his strength and arched his hand towards the old man.

At this time, Yang Laoshui also came over, looking embarrassed, "Leaders, I heard that you are going to Hutougang for inspection!?"

Everyone nodded yes, and Liu Fei also stood up, wanting to hear what Yang Laoshui had to say.

"There is no road in that place, and it may take half a day to walk over the mountains and mountains. Yang Laoshui frowned.

Liu Fei was also a little embarrassed when he heard this, and looked at Qin Tian, as if he was asking for his opinion.

"The old man can come over with fifty or sixty pounds of pork, what else are we afraid of!?"

"Yes. The monkey also snorted disdainfully, and he didn't know where his emotions came from, since he drank yesterday, he felt that he didn't like this Yang Township Chief.

"Old Yangtou, he is not an ordinary person, you people in the city can't compare, in case something goes wrong, I can't explain it." Yang Laoshui said.

"More than a dozen young men, what can be missing!?"

"It's... There are wolves in this mountain, and Hutougang is a poor village, and the electricity was only connected last year, and the poor can't open the pot, even if they go, there is nothing to eat and drink..."

Qin Tian ignored him, Yang Laoshui obstructed him in every possible way, it must be no good thing, so he simply showed Liu Fei the attitude of their group of people - Hutougang must go.

"Otherwise, I'll ask the head of the township armed forces to escort you with a few militiamen. "Yang Laoshui is embarrassed.

"They are all strong young men in their twenties and thirties, if you get a few militiamen to escort us, isn't that a curse!?"

When it came to this, Township Chief Yang had no choice but to agree, and he called Lao Yang over and instructed him alone, and everyone went on the road after breakfast.

There is no road from the township ** to Hutougang, it is the kind of off-road vehicle can not cope with the mountain sheep intestine trail, the old Yang head is flying in front of the road, everyone follows, began the difficult trek over the mountains and mountains.

At the beginning, the boys were as strong as oxen, walking in a hurry, but after an hour their steps slowed down, the sound of breathing became rapid, the temperature on the mountain was still very low, a dozen people lined up to walk, and the hot air from the mouth and nose rose into the air, like a train running at a low speed in disrepair.

There is no road on the mountain, it becomes the road when there are more people walking, the mountain is high and the road is dangerous, but the scenery is excellent, in the early spring, the mountains are full of newly sprouted green, the white clouds are close at hand, and it feels like going to a fairyland.

Lao Yang poked the steel fork to the ground and said, "Let's rest your feet." As he spoke, he took out a kettle wrapped in dog skin from under his old sheepskin jacket, pulled out the cork and asked me, "Come!?"

Qin Tian took it and smelled it, it was actually a strong wine, took a sip and praised: "Good wine!"

Lao Yang Tou said: "Home-brewed sorghum wine is not a good thing, it is strong enough to relieve fatigue." ”

Lao Yang smiled, sat on the rock, took out a cigarette pouch to light a cigarette, and said, "If you like it, go back and hold a jar." ”

Qin Tian readily agreed, flipped the kettle in his hand, and asked, "This kettle is old, right!?"

"It's been more than sixty years. Old Yang said as he smoked his cigarette.

"It's my grandfather's trophy. Yang Bing interjected on the side.

"Oh!?" Qin Tianda was interested, and when he untied the dogskin case, he saw that it was a military kettle, and the paint on the aluminum shell had peeled off, but there were three men written in red pen who were still clear "Jing Ye Liang".

"This is the kettle used by the devils of the island country!?" Qin Tian said in surprise.

"Yes, my grandfather killed dozens of devil soldiers, captured more loot, and there are 38 big cover **** and command knife. Yang Bing couldn't help but interject again.

Lao Yang nodded with a smile: "It's all paid to the public, and there is an iron hat left at home to boil water, as well as this kettle." ”

Qin Tian was in awe of the old Yang Tou, it turned out that he was still an old hero who resisted the island!

Looking back at those guys, the originally neat team was scattered at this time, scattered among the mountains like sheep eggs, and the young men in colorful mountaineering clothes were panting like cows, crawling with their hands and feet, and the first to come up were Lu Wan and the monkey, these two guys were not ordinary people, although they insisted on exercising every day, they were still not as fast as Lao Yang Tou and Qin Tian.

"Old man, how far is Hutougang," Liu Fei asked with a sad face.

"After crossing the bridge, we climbed two more mountains and we arrived. Lao Yang Tou held the steel fork in his hand and pointed to the misty mountain in the distance and said.

After crossing a chain bridge, the road ahead is much easier, and after climbing two mountains in a row, Hutougang will arrive.

This is a natural village located in a mountain nest, as far as the eye can see, the smoke of cooking, the grass houses of forty or fifty families are scattered, the branches of rhododendrons are chirping, and the hillside is full of wild flowers.

"This is my home, Hutougang. After Yang Bing finished speaking, he spread his footsteps and ran towards the village, shouting as he ran: "Ah~ I'm back!"

A huge greyhound rushed out of the village, pounced on Yang Bing and licked and smelled, and the villagers also came out in twos and threes, looking at these strangers.

The mountain people are extremely enthusiastic, let the guests into their own houses, boil water and chop wood, kill chickens and sheep to prepare for cooking, the village men with heads and faces accompany the guests to talk in the house, children and dogs gather in the yard, from time to time to probe their brains, women are busy cooking pots and stir-frying, the village is in full swing, jubilant.

Hutougang is very poor, poor beyond imagination, except for a telephone in the village, there is no electrical appliances except a radio, oil lamps are used for lighting, firewood is used for heating, the house is made of mountain stones, the thatched roof is pressed with stones, the house is surrounded by walls, and all the belongings can not be exchanged for dozens of yuan.

The only thing that attracts attention is the award certificate on the wall of Yang Bing's house, from the militia model issued by the border area in the 40s to the big competition in the 60s, the second-class merit in the 70s, and the honors of the three generations of the Yang family's ancestors and grandchildren are hung on the wall.

Full of loyalty, this is the only word Qin Tian can think of!
