The dirt road is muddy, and the further you go, the more muddy it becomes.

Not for anything else, but because basically all the students who go to the south of the city do so on foot.

At this time, the road to the town has also changed drastically from before.

Before, it was all trails, but now thanks to the sugarcane grown by nearby villagers, there are roads.

However, there is still a certain distance between the highway and the road, which is a small road, about three or four kilometers.

It was a few kilometres of travel.

There are steep slopes, rocks, quagmire, and leeches .......

Zhang Laohan staggered with his burden, this foot did not obey the call at all, maybe he had his own ideas and was at the mercy of the road.

This made Xiao Mu frightened when he saw it, and he really sweated for Zhang Laohan.

"Grandpa, why don't I get some for you?" Xiao Mu stared at Zhang Laohan and said seriously.

But what could he take, he couldn't hold anything, except for letting him hold the mat.

Xiao Mu had this heart, and Zhang Laohan already felt very satisfied, so he said: "No, you can't even walk by yourself, and you want to help me get things, forget it." ”

But looking at Zhang Laohan's big head and stumbling steps, Xiao Mu felt a little distressed.

At that time, he was thinking, why can't he go to school in Nanchen, although there are only about 20 people in each grade, it is not a few.

Is it because of the age of the fifth and sixth graders?

But this statement is also a bit unreasonable, Xiao Mu feels that since he has gone to school, it is the best way to go to Beicheng to go to middle school after graduating from primary school at one time.

However, this idea is obviously absurd and impossible to realize.

As I walked, I came to the boundaries of other villages.

There is a lot of sugar cane here, white-skinned, red-skinned.

Zhang Laohan asked, "Xiao Mu, do you want to eat sugarcane?"

This Xiao Mu had also eaten sugarcane before, but in his memory, the sugarcane skin was very hard, and he couldn't bite it without a knife, unless it was fruit sugarcane, and this was not.

"Can this bite?" Xiao Mu asked in surprise.

"Ahem, what's wrong with this, you have to pick a sugar cane with a long knot, it's easy to peel. ”

It seems that this is still a science, and it takes more effort than others to eat a sugarcane without any knowledge.

Of course, between the words, the others have already jumped into someone else's sugar cane field to steal sugar cane.

But Xiao Mu didn't, he felt that this was very bad, no matter how he said it, it was planted by others, how could it be like this.

But when I think about it, I started to itch in my heart when I saw that others were eating.

I couldn't help but swallow my saliva.

"Smack"

Jumping into the sugar cane field, kicking off a sugar cane, the sound is crisp.

It's definitely a very brittle sugar cane, otherwise it wouldn't sound so brittle.

The group took some stones, and all of them squatted down, eating sugar cane to replenish their energy after resting.

Among them, someone said: "If it weren't for the two of you, we wouldn't have dared to pull other people's sugarcane so openly." ”

"Hahaha" Zhang Laohan laughed and said, "Will they scold you? Then you have to talk to others, you and others politely ask for a few trees to eat, you should give them." ”

As soon as the old man's voice fell, the others all shook their heads and said, "No, no, no, where do you dare to ask for it, it's okay not to be scolded, but maybe one day they will do it to us." ”

"Hahaha"

Laughing, Zhang Laohan smiled, thinking that these children were too cute.

"I said you should be scolded, and you will be naughty every day, destroying the crops that people have spent so much effort to grow. ”

Zhang Laohan said that they would pull other people's sugarcane to eat every Friday and Sunday.

Forget it twice this time, the semester is so long, it's like this every week, so who won't scold!

Besides, sugarcane is the main cash crop in that village all year round, and that family pays a lot of attention.

"Grandpa, let's go, let's go, the sun is so high, it's too late if you don't go. ”

Xiao Mu was in a hurry, and he began to worry that he would be late.

The group set off again and rushed to the road of study on the yellow mud.

Standing on the mountainside, the sound of rushing water and frolicking can be heard at the foot of the mountain.

Between the fields, winding roads, karst landscapes.

There are groups of pedestrians on the road, and children can be seen in the crowd, all of whom are going to send their children to school.

Occasionally, a few motorcycles pass by.

Parents or motorcycles carry large and small baggage, and some even carry pots and pans.

Of course, these are new, not old.

Maybe it's expensive to buy near the school on the first day of school, so buy it from the street in advance and take it with you, after all, everyone's conditions are not very good, and you can save it.

Xiao Mu looked at the bags on Zhang Laohan's body, and he already had a small amount of what he had brought.

It was also Zhang Laohan who didn't think of these daily necessities before, but Xiao Mu thought of it, but he was afraid of trouble, so he didn't say it.

At the foot of the mountain, you can see the mine cave on the opposite slope, and this mountain is naturally called a mine.

The wastewater discharged from the mine was muddy and flowed down the ravine into the river at the foot of the mountain.

The water in the river began to become very muddy from the foot of the mine, and if you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you really wouldn't have believed that the river was clear upstream.

The river is exposed with a lot of huge rocks, probably because of the rainy season, when the current is very fast.

Xiao Mu looked at the turbulent water and the sound of rushing water, and felt a trace of fear in his heart.

There is no "bridge" to the river, just a few pine logs.

The river, which is about ten meters wide, is covered with such a long pine tree, and it is inevitable that the middle position will be bent.

The pine wood is very smooth and smooth by people, and the gap between the two pine trees is large, and there are no guardrails on either side or anything.

Xiao Mu stood at the head of the bridge and stopped, he didn't dare to go over, he was afraid that he would fall down accidentally.

"Grandpa, I don't dare to go over, can you help me?"

At this time, Zhang Laohan had already arrived on the other side of the river, put his things aside and waited for Xiao Mu to come over.

Pointing to the rushing river, he said, "Why don't you consider wading over?"

Wading across a river?

Xiao Mu couldn't do it at all, he was already trembling when he heard the deafening sound of running water, let alone wading through the water.

"No, no, I just won't go. ”

Zhang Laohan did not promise Xiao Mu, but tried to encourage Xiao Mu to go over by himself.

But every time she walked to the bridge, Xiao Mu's legs began to weaken, and she couldn't even lift her feet.

However, Guo Yang has passed, but Xiao Mu dare not pass, which is a little embarrassing.

Zhang Laohan roared angrily on the other side: "Look at how old you are, you are so bold, you haven't passed since Xu Hui came over, it's not a shame!"

Everyone actually yelled at Xiao Mu, but Xiao Mu didn't care, because at this time he was thinking about how to cross the bridge.
