The story takes place in a parallel world......

Jialan Village, located in the mountains in the southwest border of China, due to its remote location, the villagers here live a very poor life, like many villages in the mountains, in order to make a living, young people go to the city to work, live, and even settle in the city.

Over time, Jialan Village, like many villages in the mountains, became deserted and dilapidated with the departure of young people.

Perhaps when the older generation gets old, these villages in the mountains on the southwestern border of China will slowly become primeval forests, and the names of villages in the territory of China will also become history.

Jialan Village, a village that is about to decline, ushered in a wanderer who has returned from the dust today.

This is a handsome young man in his early twenties, with a pair of large eyelids that are slightly sunken, thin and slanted eyebrows, a black shirt on his upper body, and some whitish-blue jeans washed on his stomach.

"Hahaha, I'm Lin Pengfei back!"

Looking at the village not far away, Lin Pengfei shouted excitedly.

"Hahaha, I'm Lin Pengfei back!"

"Hahaha, I'm Lin Pengfei back!"

The echo of the mountains made Lin Pengfei feel that his hometown was welcoming him.

……

"Did you hear anything?"

Lin Zhaoquan, the old village chief of Jialan Village, put down the hoe in his hand and asked his wife next to him.

"It seems that Lin Pengfei is back?"

Although she is over sixty years old, Wang Saihua's ears are still very good, and she naturally hears the echo of the mountain very clearly.

Jialan Village is located in a remote area, and now the population is small, there is no signal tower installed here, in one sentence, the situation of this Jialan Village is: "The traffic is basically walked, the communication is basically by roaring, and the security is basically based on dogs." ”

Despite this, Lin Zhaoquan and his wife are still unwilling to leave this dilapidated village where they have lived all their lives.

"Why did this kid come back?"

Lin Zhaoquan frowned and said, the bead-like wrinkles on his face were deeper, and the knots formed by the two eyebrows were locked together.

The kid in Lin Zhaoquan's mouth is Lin Pengfei.

Speaking of this Lin Pengfei, he is actually a poor child, I don't know why, in the cold winter, he was abandoned by his parents in the grass on the side of the road, and Lin Zhaoyue, who was passing by, picked him up and took him home.

Lin Zhaoyue, who has been a bachelor all her life, picked up a boy, and was naturally happy, so she left the child as a son and named him Lin Pengfei.

It's just that the good times didn't last long, when Lin Pengfei was nine years old, Lin Zhaoyue died of cancer, leaving Lin Pengfei as an orphan.

The people in the village took pity on him, the east family gave him a mouthful of food, and the west family gave him a mouthful of food, and he was stunned to raise this kid.

It's just that he has lacked discipline since he was a child, and he hasn't gone to school, so Lin Pengfei has learned badly from people outside, and he does some dishonorable things such as stealing chickens and touching dogs.

Three years ago, because he was seriously injured in a fight with someone, he was arrested by the police department of Huaxia State and sentenced to five years in prison by the court.

It's just that what Lin Zhaoquan didn't expect was that this Lin Pengfei would come out in advance.

You must know that in Jialan Village, where the folk customs are simple, such a villain as Lin Pengfei came out, in the eyes of Lin Zhaoquan, the old village chief, this is a violation of customs and customs, and this is a ruin of the reputation of Jialan Village.

In Jialan Village, where the people are simple, no one has been arrested by the police bureau for a hundred years and sentenced to prison, which Lin Pengfei has smeared Jialan Village.

"It's good to come back, Pengfei's kid is actually quite pitiful. ”

Wang Saihua smiled.

Anyway, Lin Pengfei grew up under Wang Saihua's watch, and Wang Saihua still has feelings for him.

"Humph!"

Lin Zhaoquan snorted coldly.

Don't look at Lin Zhaoquan's angry look of wanting Lin Pengfei to die outside, in fact, it's just hatred of iron and steel.

……

"What's going on, where's my house?"

Lin Pengfei ran back to his house excitedly, but was dumbfounded.

The original houses are gone, and some of them are lush weeds on the ground.

Even Lin Pengfei could see a few black rats haunting the weeds.

Although his home is just a half-mound and half-thatched house, it is also the home where Lin Pengfei has lived for more than ten years.

It's a place where you can shelter yourself from the wind and rain!

But now that there is no more, Lin Pengfei's heart suddenly became cold!

Home is gone!

"Stinky boy, why did you come out so quickly, it won't be ......"

Just when Lin Pengfei was looking at his ruined home and grieving, an old voice came from behind him.

Lin Pengfei turned back to the visitor and said, "Fifth uncle, look at what you always say, am I that kind of person? It was because I behaved well inside that I was released in advance." ”

This is an old man in his early seventies with white hair, named Lin Zhaosen, the fifth brother of Lin Zhaoyue and the fifth uncle of Lin Pengfei.

"That's good, be a good person for me in the future, and stop doing that thing of stealing chickens and dogs!"

As soon as he heard that Lin Pengfei was released early because of his good behavior in prison, Lin Zhaosen's frowning brows also relaxed.

As long as it's not an escape.

"Fifth uncle, don't worry, I will be a good person and stop doing those things like stealing chickens and dogs. ”

Lin Pengfei nodded and said.

It's just that Lin Pengfei is a little worried!

I don't have any culture!

went to the construction site to do manual work, Lin Pengfei had no power to restrain the chicken, he couldn't do the heavy work, and when he went to work in the factory, when people heard that he was illiterate, he was not even allowed to enter the gate.

Why, because you can't fill out even the simplest resume!

Can't find a job, can't earn money to eat, Lin Pengfei doesn't know how he will live after he is released from prison.

"This house collapsed in a rainstorm the year you went to prison, and many of the old dilapidated houses in the village collapsed in that rainstorm. ”

Seeing that Lin Pengfei was still staring at the old house that was already a wasteland, Lin Zhaosen explained.

"Oh!"

Lin Pengfei nodded, and he was no longer sad.

After all, the house has collapsed, and it is useless to be sad about yourself.

In the past three years in prison, Lin Pengfei has learned a truth, "People must look forward when they are alive." ”

"Let's go, let's go to the fifth uncle's house to live!"

Lin Zhaosen said.

Anyway, this Lin Pengfei is his nephew, although this nephew was picked up by his eldest brother on the road, but he is also the son of his eldest brother.

As the fifth uncle, I can't let him sleep in this wilderness!

"Fifth uncle, I still go to the temple in the village and live there. ”

Lin Pengfei shook his head and said.

"You haven't become a monk, what temple do you live in, it's better to live in the fifth uncle's house, and now the fifth uncle's house is also lived by the fifth uncle and your fifth aunt, and several of your cousins and sisters have all moved out to live, and the house is empty.

Lin Zhaosen said.

"In this case, then I will live in the fifth uncle's house. ”

As soon as he heard that his cousins and cousins no longer lived in the village, Lin Pengfei hesitated and decided to live in the fifth uncle's house.

Lin Pengfei did not have a good relationship with several of his cousins and cousins, they didn't want to see Lin Pengfei before, and this time Lin Pengfei came out of prison, Lin Pengfei didn't want to see them, for fear of attracting them.

……

Early the next morning, after Lin Pengfei finished breakfast at the fifth uncle's house, he went down the mountain to the town to buy some incense sticks, candles, lamp oil, and gold paper.

When he came back this time, the first thing Lin Pengfei had to do was to go to the grave of his cheap father.

After all, if it weren't for that cheap dad, Lin Pengfei estimated that he would have frozen to death in the grass on the side of the road.

It's a pity that this cheap dad didn't wait for him to grow up, so he drove to the west.

However, every year during the Qingming Festival and the New Year, Lin Pengfei did not forget to sweep the grave of his cheap father.

It's just that this time I've been in prison for three years, and I haven't cleaned the grave of my cheap dad for three years, and I don't know how tall the weeds on his grave have grown.

This is also the reason why people in the countryside want to have a son, there is a son, this Qingming someone sweeps the grave and goes to the grave, so that the weeds on the grave will not grow taller and the grave will be submerged.

"Daddy, it's a shame that you picked me up, otherwise no one would have swept your grave, so it's your blessing to have a son like me......"

"Don't blame me for not sweeping your grave for three years, it's because I'm busy...... What's busy...... I'm busy with business, I'll tell you......"

Lin Pengfei looked at the grave overgrown with weeds and said to himself.

Regardless of whether the cheap dad in this grave can hear his own words, Lin Pengfei still has to speak, after all, this cheap dad is lying alone in the ground, and he must like to talk to him.

It took two hours for Lin Pengfei to clean up the weeds on the grave and burn a lot of paper money for the cheap dad before Lin Pengfei extinguished the incense candle, after all, if this thing is not extinguished, it is easy to cause a fire.

After doing this, Lin Pengfei also walked back, passing by a small temple outside the village.

The small temples in this kind of mountain village are basically not big, and they are basically dedicated to this or two big Buddhas, and people in the village will come to offer incense on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month.

Although this temple is not presiding, basically three or five days will be used to use villagers to clean the temple, so this temple looks neat and clean.

Lin Pengfei took out a bunch of sandalwood from the bag, lit it and sincerely offered incense to the Buddha.

"That's ......"

As soon as he inserted this sandalwood into the incense burner, Lin Pengfei looked up and found that the Buddha was holding something in his hand.
