As the saying goes, if you don't feel like you're there, it's hard to understand the steepness. It can really be described as "the mountains are towering and the green is out of the sky, and the flying pavilion is flowing and there is no land".

Just as Du Xiaowei was carrying a beige backpack, pulling the iron chain hanging on the inside of the cliff with her hand to borrow strength, and struggling to climb the steps along the steep to the upward slope of forty or fifty degrees, a burst of relaxed and powerful footsteps suddenly came from behind her, and she couldn't help but take the initiative to stop and lean her body against the cliff next to her as much as possible, so as to make room for the latecomers to pass by by mistake.

Reaching out to comb the strands of hair hanging down on her forehead and being wet with sweat, Du Xiaowei found that the person who came was a very young man, who should be about the same age as herself, and looked handsome. Seeing that the other party was also looking over with a smile, Du Xiaowei naturally smiled politely.

"Alone?"

The young man had obviously observed Du Xiaowei a long time ago, and saw that he had no companions before and after, so he took the initiative to talk to him.

Nodding slightly, Du Xiaowei agreed faintly: "Hmm." ”

I have to say that the young man in front of me, who is one meter seven or eight tall, tall and well-proportioned, is not only handsome, but also has a slightly magnetic voice. For no reason, it suddenly reminded me of another figure buried in the depths of Du Xiaowei's memory - Han Wensong, a classmate who had pursued him when he was in college.

I don't know if it's because the navy blue sweatshirt is too thin and the body is sweating a lot, so after stopping, I can feel the strong coolness brought by the wind on Huashan at the end of October, or because the young man in front of him reminded him of Han Wensong and felt a little sour in his heart, Du Xiaowei subconsciously tightened the arm that was hugged in front of her chest.

"Hehe, looking at your outfit, it must be the first time to climb Huashan, right?"

"yes. ”

Although out of the girl's natural reserve, Du Xiaowei didn't ask the other party how she knew, but there was still a look of doubt in her eyes.

"Just look at your outfit. The young man also raised his hand to comb the hair on his forehead, and said with a smile: "Although it is still late autumn at the bottom of the mountain this season, it has entered winter on the mountain. Especially after the sun sets, the temperature drops sharply below freezing. In the second half of the night, it will reach minus seven or eight degrees. Your clothes are so thin that you can't withstand the cold of the night. ”

"Thank you. I had planned to take the cable car down to the top of the mountain immediately, but I didn't want to spend the night on the mountain. But I didn't think about it, and the mountain wind was so cold when I was only halfway up the climb. ”

"If you don't have enough clothes, it's best to climb the north peak as soon as possible and take the cable car down from there, otherwise you'll freeze. ”

Without saying anything more, in Du Xiaowei's second thanks, the young man raised his feet and continued to move forward, and his figure soon disappeared on the steep and narrow winding mountain road.

Standing in place, with her back to the sun in the sky above her head, Du Xiaowei could clearly feel the heat from the sun on her back. After a moment's hesitation, he simply sat down against the cliff wall, intending to rest for a while, regain his strength, and strive to climb the north peak in one go, and then listen to the young man's suggestion - take the cable car down the mountain.

Of course, Du Xiaowei knows her current body best, and she is no longer the peasant girl on the Loess Plateau, on the river under the mountain, and not afraid of wind and rain. When she was studying, no matter how cold it was in winter, she could carry it with thin clothes. But now .......

was aroused by the young man just now, and silently thought for a while in his heart about the relationship with Han Wensong when he was in college, which can be regarded as the only person who Du Xiaowei has ever interacted with her heart when she is so old. Then, after more than five years of nightmares, the scene that took place on the shore of an artificial lake at Michirean State University on that summer weekend came back to her mind.

There are no tears for a long time, and all that remains in Du Xiaowei's heart is pain and unforgettable hatred.

At this time, Du Xiaowei will pray silently in her heart, praying that her family will work hard to raise herself as an adult, scrape together for her to go to college, and regard her parents as the only hope in her life from childhood to adulthood for a longer period of time. Du Xiaowei is sure that it will not be more than two years at most. As long as she has more favorable evidence of that spy organization, she will personally destroy the people and organizations that ruined her life, and let them bury her.

Over the years, the funds provided by the other party and the salary paid by Dousheng Group, Du Xiaowei have saved them frugally. Just wait for that day to come, so that it can be sent to the parents, and the right to be regarded as a little insignificant to the parenting grace of the parents, which is better than nothing.

knew that what her parents wanted was not money, but her living person, but Du Xiaowei understood that she couldn't do it in this life. But for other reasons, even if Du Xiaowei is about to die, she will choose to die in the arms of her parents.

However, what she never imagined was that those people who had lost their conscience would painstakingly set such a trap and infected her with the HIV virus that everyone talked about.

It's not about the virus itself, it's about the fact that it's a disease that is easy to say and not to hear. If it spreads in her hometown, although Du Xiaowei knows that she is not infected by sexual contact, who will believe the people in her hometown? Because in that remote mountain village on the Loess Plateau, people's understanding of the HIV virus is limited to "caused by the girl's own misconduct." This is a virtue that corrupts the doorway, cannot enter the ancestral grave even when he dies, and is spurned by everyone

In this regard, Du Xiaowei has analyzed the consequences countless times, and each time she can only come to one conclusion - parents will be ashamed of having such a "shameless" daughter as themselves, and they will not be able to raise their heads in front of everyone. What's more, although over the years, although he has forced himself to die, the other party has not forced himself to do those things that will bring heavy losses to the fundamental interests of the country, but after all, what he has done is still not conducive to the country and the nation, and he has completely degenerated into a "traitor" that everyone shouts and beats?

These two reasons are the reasons why Du Xiaowei has not dared to have any contact with her family for so many years, and she has not dared to inquire about the slightest situation of her parents, let alone the root cause of sending money to her family.

"Father, mother, it's the daughter who is not filial. ”

Only when she thinks of her father and mother at home, Du Xiaowei can't help but leave strings of tears. Looking at the cliff of the north peak under the sun in the distance with teary eyes, Du Xiaowei's heart was dripping blood. Where is she coming for a vacation, where does she have such a mood.

This trip is purely to find a final destination for yourself in advance!

The wind and chill in the mountains are urging.

The cliffs of Chihiro are formidable.

Revenge one day,

But the soul of this body flies.

The mother endures the pain, and the father rests and grieves.

In the next life, if you are not filial, you will be angelica.

Be willing to be a horse for the ox,

Report again on this life.

casually filled in the [Partridge Heaven], Du Xiaowei resolutely stood up and grabbed the cold iron chain again and climbed up.
