Chapter 171: Warmth Lost for a Long Time

The darkness made Shen Zhuxi a little flustered, in addition to the continuous mountains around, even the passers-by and cars who were traveling with him could not be seen, looking at the fuel gauge, the motorcycle could drive forward more than 50 kilometers at most, in case the fuel tank bottomed out, I am afraid that I could only survive the night on the side of the road in this deep mountain......

Shen Zhuxi, who was faintly afraid, counted the miles and continued to move forward, at the top of the mountain in front, Shen Zhuxi saw a faint orange light, Shen Zhuxi immediately changed the route and leaned over, and when he got closer, he could faintly see the light in front of him, the candlelight from the two mountain families.

Shen Zhuxi didn't expect that she would come to such a remote place where there was no electricity, but she didn't have the courage to continue moving forward, and if she missed this place, she would have to spend the night on the side of the road.

After extinguishing the motorcycle, Shen Zhuxi cautiously approached the door of the house.

After a little knock on the door, the door of the mountain house opened unexpectedly, and the person who opened the door inside turned out to be a little girl.

Probing in a little, Shen Zhuxi saw two very plainly dressed couples sitting next to the simple wooden table inside.

"Are you?" the old man made a puzzled voice, looking at Shen Zhuxi's dress, he didn't look like a man from the mountains.

"Big brother...... I'm cycling by, the car is out of gas, can I spend the night? I can pay. Shen Zhuxi cautiously opened his mouth and asked.

"Well, yes, you don't need money. The old man stood up very happily with a simple smile on his face.

Shen Zhuxi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, lowered his head, and saw the little girl who opened the door, staring at herself with big watery eyes.

"Ah Liang, go and clean up for the guests, ask the two children to sleep with us tonight, and the children's room will give her a night's sleep." The old man said to his wife beside him.

"Ah Liang?" Shen Zhuxi subconsciously repeated the name of the man's wife, "Sister Liang, I'm sorry for your trouble." ”

"It's okay, it's okay. Ah Liang waved his hand and hurried into the hut on the side.

"Come in and sit down, it'll be fine for a while, have you eaten? There is still food at home, if you are hungry, I will warm it up for you." The old man greeted warmly.

For some reason, Shen Zhuxi was originally wary of strangers, but the simple couple in front of him, as well as the two children, made Shen Zhuxi completely unwary, looking around the dilapidated and simple house, Shen Zhuxi asked curiously: "Big brother, is there a market here?" I have to refuel my motorcycle tomorrow before I can continue on the road. ”

"Yes, but the market is more than 60 kilometers north. The old man replied.

"......" Shen Zhuxi was speechless, more than 60 kilometers away, is that the place he passed by before dark......

"Girl, what do you call you? How can a girl run to such a remote place on a motorcycle? The old man's tone was concerned.

"Just call me Xiao Shen, my surname is Shen, what about you, big brother. Shen Zhuxi asked.

"It's called the surname Wen, the news is heard, and the villagers around here call me Lao Wenzi, hahaha. The old man smiled heartily, "Girl, you will go home tomorrow after refueling, right? ”

Shen Zhuxi smiled bitterly, and unconsciously, the two children had already come to Shen Zhuxi's side, and they were curiously trying to touch Shen Zhuxi's clothes and sleeves, like young birds with little courage, and they didn't dare to speak.

"Xingxing, Chenchen, don't touch Auntie, it's rude. "Lao Wen educates two children.

Looking at the two lovely children, Shen Zhuxi's heart seemed to merge, like ice cream, sweetly melting, covering his heart and moistening his heart.

Shen Zhuxi remembered that when he was at the gas station during the day, he bought some biscuits and dry food, and he was afraid that he would be hungry on the road, so he didn't eat it for a day, so he came outside and brought the bag of dry food into the house, Shen Zhuxi looked at the two children dotingly:

"Xingxing, Chenchen, take care of me when we meet for the first time, Auntie has something delicious for you to eat. ”

"Okay, okay!"

My sister's name is Xingxing, my brother's name is Chenchen, and the names are so good, Shen Zhuxi likes these two children.

Lao Wen was also a little embarrassed when he saw Shen Zhuxi giving snacks to the child, so he silently walked to the stove, boiled water and steamed the food in front of Shen Zhuxi.

"I'm sorry to tell you to break the bank, the two children have hardly eaten anything in the city, so I'll ......" Lao Wen saw the children happily observing the biscuits and snacks in their hands, and the simple Lao Wen wanted to tell the children not to take other people's things, but looking at the children's happy appearance, he couldn't bear to say anything, "Eat a hot meal, although you may not be used to eating it, but you should try it, hehe, this meat is a badger I beat in the mountains, it's delicious." Lao Wen smiled shyly.

"Okay," Shen Zhuxi saw Lao Wen's restlessness, he probably didn't want the children to get something for nothing, Shen Zhuxi had to accept it, and Lao Wen could alleviate the current embarrassment and helplessness, "Hmm! badger meat? Wow, it's delicious!"

Shen Zhuxi picked up a piece of black meat and put it in his mouth, he couldn't taste anything at all in the first bite, he didn't even taste the meat, and the taste was still hard, but after chewing, the deliciousness of the meat was faintly emanating through the salty taste in his mouth, which was also a different flavor.

"If you like it, let's eat, you can ride a motorcycle from S City, I guess I didn't have a hot meal on the road. Lao Wen's concern moved Shen Zhuxi very much.

Shen Zhuxi's nose was slightly sour, and the two children were tentatively trying the biscuits in their hands like cats, and the crunchy sound came out from time to time, and the two children also had a brighter and innocent smile on their faces. balance

"Xingxing, how old are you?" Shen Zhuxi chatted with Xingxing while eating.

"I'm seven years old. Xingxing said with a smile.

"Have you gone to school, where are you going to school, will Auntie send you to school tomorrow?" Shen Zhuxi said according to his common sense.

Lao Wen said with an embarrassed face: "The child didn't go to school, and there is no school around here......"

"What?" Shen Zhuxi was unexpected, he hadn't gone to school at the age of seven?

Lao Wen glanced at the stars, and then lowered his head, as if with a little guilt and helplessness.

Unconsciously, the news of the volunteer teachers in the mountain villages that she had occasionally heard in the past came to her mind.

"Brother Wen, where is the nearest school?" asked Shen Zhuxi.

"It's more than 60 kilometers north of the town, but the tuition is too expensive, more than 300 a semester, which is not other money, and there is no place to stay, I don't know what to do, forget it, let's talk about it, if I can send her to school, I will definitely send her to school." Lao Wen said with a wry smile.

"This is around here...... When I came here just now, I only saw two families here, are there any other families in this mountain?" Shen Zhuxi asked as carefully as he wanted to check his household registration.

"There are a lot of hundreds of families in this mountain, but this mountain is too big, and all the villagers are scattered. "I always have to answer all my questions.

Shen Zhuxi nodded, the next thing to do had been finalized in her heart - stay and teach here.

When he woke up, Shen Zhuxi, who had never slept on a wooden bed, got up with a sore back, and the couple were no longer at home.

Looking around, Shen Zhuxi didn't see the figure of an adult, but on a simple wooden table, there were simple pickles and three bowls of white water.

The children were still sleeping, and Shen Zhuxi looked helpless: "There are strangers at home, and they dare to put the children at home...... The heart is too big, right? ”

The mobile phone shows that at 10 o'clock in the morning, Shen Zhuxi accompanied the two children to play nearby, the children seemed to be quite bold, daring to run around in this mountain, during the day, Shen Zhuxi can also occasionally meet passing villagers, villagers carrying hoes, smiling enthusiastically at Shen Zhuxi to say hello.

Shen Zhuxi was worried that the children would run away, so they followed closely all the way, the two children were laughing happily, Shen Zhuxi was afraid that the old couple would be anxious when they saw that the children were not at home, so they could only catch the two children back with a hard heart.

Lao Wen didn't know when he had returned home, and as soon as Shen Zhuxi stepped into the simple door, he smelled the strong smell of sweat.

"Oh, you're out, I thought you're gone. Lao Wen and Ah Liang were sitting at the table drinking tea.

"You guys are too bold, there are strangers at home, you dare to leave your children at home, both children ran down the mountain just now!" Shen Zhuxi was anxious and even charged with a tone.

"Haha," Lao Wen seemed to hear a joke, "What's this, what, our old couple believes you, you still don't want to?"

Shen Zhuxi noticed that he seemed to be overreacting, but Lao Wen's heart was too big: "Hey." ”

"It's okay, the children often run around in the mountains, and the children of other villagers are like this, we have to farm, how can we have time to keep an eye on the children, and if we take the children to farm together, we will run away without a shadow, and we won't go home until it's dark. Lao Wen has long been accustomed to the daily life of children, which is their hard and simple way of life.

"I want to set up a small school in this village, so that the children can study, for free, Brother Wen, what do you think?" Shen Zhuxi made up his mind yesterday that he would not go back, stay in this simple mountain, and be a volunteer teacher for the children.

Deposits, enough to do this.

"Wow, really?" asked Lao Wen in surprise.

Ah Liang also looked incredulous: "Xiao Shen, there is no future in this village, and it is very tired, have you really thought about it?"

"Well, I've thought about it, but is there a suitable place for the children to be a classroom?" Shen Zhuxi didn't care about anything else, she had already decided to do it to the end.

"Yes, yes," Lao Wen said busily, "There used to be a school in our village, but the principal couldn't hold on anymore, so he dispersed, if you want to do it, just use it." ”

Shen Zhuxi nodded, he was about to go over immediately, Lao Wen actively led the way in front, the two children in the family couldn't read, and it had always been the biggest stone in his heart, if Shen Zhuxi was really willing, this stone could also be put down.

Half a month later, Leng Yan still hadn't found Shen Zhuxi's figure, and the search manpower he secretly sent out had been unfounded.

Not only Leng Yan was looking for him, but Chu Kuo and Gu Xuanyuan were also looking for Shen Zhuxi everywhere.

There are many people looking for it, and the news is gradually leaking, for a while, the news of Shen Zhuxi's disappearance spread in S City, Chu Kuo even spared no expense to offer a reward to find Shen Zhuxi, in the past half a month, S City has already become a pot of porridge because of turmoil from all walks of life.
