When I woke up the next day, I found a creek and washed up, and then laid my baggage and went deeper, knowing that the most boring thing was that there was no one around me to talk to, so it was too boring, but I had just walked for more than an hour, and I saw an old man dressed in cloth and carrying a backpack walking in my direction on the rugged mountain road, and the old man was walking on the side of the road, as if looking for something. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was rare to see a person, so I hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Old man, I don't know what you are doing in this East Lake Scenic Area?" I looked at the sickle in the old man's hand, as well as the herbs piled up behind him, I could probably guess what the old man was doing in it, but I came to the East Lake Scenic Area to collect medicine, which made me feel a little strange.

The old man obviously didn't expect that he would be able to meet people here, so he looked at me carefully, and then replied with a smile, "I am the village doctor in the mountain village not far away, so I don't want to get some herbs to go back to the villagers to treat the disease, but this is no longer within the scope of East Lake, young man, are you separated from your teammates?"

"Old man, I was separated from my teammates, didn't I say that this East Lake Scenic Area is very big? Why did I walk a distance for only one day, and I actually walked out of the scope of the East Lake Scenic Area. "Seriously, although I have some understanding of the East Lake, but I have also seen the planning of the specific East Lake scenic spot from the map, according to the traveler, the East Lake will take at least three days to go out of the East Lake, the scope is large enough, and now it seems that it is nothing more than that.

"Little brother, it seems that you are not a local, right? The East Lake you mentioned is divided into two parts, the east is the part of the scenic spot, and the west is just some mountains and wild medicinal materials, and has not been developed, and the development scope of the east is also large enough, if outsiders come to travel, many people go to the east to visit, only a few locals like to come to the west, because this side is quiet and suitable for camping, but the west side is also relatively monotonous. The old man gestured his hands and explained to me.

"No, old man, you see that I have been following the instructions of the map, and I shouldn't have made a mistake!" I opened the paper map behind me, and then pointed to a place on it and said, you must know that this paper map is an accurate map called up by Bicheng through relationships, and it can even be compared to the military map, if even this is not accurate, it will not make sense.

But who knows that it's okay if I don't take out the map, as soon as I take out the map, the old man touched his beard and laughed, "I see, so it is, I guess the friend who gave you the map didn't tell you a situation, although this East Lake looks very different on the map, but I don't know why, it's like a mirror, things are separated, and they can even correspond to each other, if there is no local leader, it is indeed easy to make mistakes, this is also a normal situation." ”

The old man looked at me holding the map and was a little funny, took the map from my hand, and then spread out on the ground in a clean and flat place and said, "Look at it, this is the East Lake, and then this should be the most famous attraction of the East Lake, Dafa Temple, if you come in from the main gate of the East Lake, and the main gate of the East Lake is just the central axis of the dividing line, which can be linked with the Dafa Temple to form a straight line, across the entire East Lake." As he spoke, the old man drew a pen on the map with his hand.

"This central axis is not even known to many Jiangcheng locals, and those of us who have lived in the village for decades only know a little, and now that the winding mountain road has been built, it will distinguish the east and west sides of the East Lake, presumably the little brother has not encountered the winding mountain road along the way, right?" The old man asked me with a smile, and I didn't know how to answer, but after thinking about it, I really didn't, so I could only shake my head.

"That's right, the only difference between the east and the west is the cement pavement of East Lake, but some people who like camping are willing to camp in the east, so a part of the cement pavement has been built here, which is even more confusing. The old man probably thought it was funny, and he laughed at the whole commentary.

"That means that I have been near East Lake before, and the so-called circumambulation of the cement road is only half a circle?" I suddenly thought of this question, if this is really the case, then it means that if the aura of heaven and earth over there has not changed, then it can only be in the east that the aura of heaven and earth can change, and it is estimated that my sense of direction is a little weak.

I thought about it and said to the old man, "Old man, I don't know if I can go to your village to have a look, I came this time to write an academic paper on the landform of East Lake, originally I thought that the landform of East Lake was destroyed, but I didn't expect the landform to be opposite, it seems that there is still some use of academic value, I know it is a little offended, but I promise, I will pay for everything in your village." "I didn't even know what to say in the end, so I could just put the matter on the money.

When the old man heard me say this, he just nodded slightly, and then said, "So that's the case, this is a good thing, and there is nothing bad about it, not to mention that you are still willing to pay, it just so happens that my old man still has a room in his house, so it will be regarded as a contribution to the scientific cause of the motherland, and it will be good to charge you a hundred yuan a day" The old man said Finally, the whole person's eyes slowly opened, and two fine lights shot out of his eyes, and he knew that he was a money fan at a glance.

But this is not to blame the old man, presumably in that kind of place, even if the villagers see a doctor, they only charge a cost price, otherwise they don't need to go to this mountain to collect medicine, I think it's also to save some costs, I nodded when I thought of this, anyway, it's good to have a place to live, so as not to go out and find a place to live, which can also allow me to study this village well.

I took out a thousand yuan directly from my backpack and put it in the old man's hand, and said with a smile, "Old man, there are 1,000 yuan here, of which 700 is considered a seven-day accommodation fee, as for 300 yuan, even if it is the meal fee for these seven days, it doesn't need to be luxurious, as long as you can eat enough, I can also see that life in your village is not easy." ”

The old man did not refuse, he put the money into his jacket pocket with peace of mind, and carefully buttoned the buttons that were not buttoned, for fear that his thousand yuan would disappear, and after doing all this, the old man asked, "Old man, my name is Mu Liushu, others call me Lao Mu, you can also call me like this, I don't know what the little brother is called?"

The old man originally had a smile, but after collecting the money, his smile became even brighter, and even the smile was a precursor to facial cramps, I quickly replied, "My surname is Xie and my name is Xie Jianghai, but at home, everyone likes to call me Xie San, old man, you can call me like this, the old man doesn't know if we should leave now?"

Lao Mu nodded, then looked at the big backpack beside me, I noticed his movements, and hurriedly said, "Old man, don't worry, it's just some mountaineering equipment, and I don't have anything heavy on my back." "Although I said this, I also told this wood willow tree a thing about the world, that is, I don't have much money on me, so you don't have to bother with anything, but I don't know if the other party understands it very well.

Lao Mu heard me say this, and then put a herb in his hand in the basket, and then walked towards the bottom of the mountain, I also hurriedly followed the old man, chatting along the way, and it took more than an hour to return to the old man's village, originally I thought that the village of the willow tree was a very old village, but who would have thought that there was not only a cement road, but also every family was a small western-style building, and it didn't look like it was very poor.

The wood willow tree took me into the village, and it did not cause panic among the people in the village, but everyone looked at me relaxedly, and even showed a lazy look, although when the wood willow tree passed by, many people greeted him, but no one asked me about it, it seems that these people are used to strangers coming to the village, if it is an ordinary village, if a stranger comes, it must not take much time, it will spread throughout the village.

When I came to the Muliushu house, I was a little surprised, the Muliushu family is not a two- or three-story small bungalow, but on a large piece of ground, built so many bungalows, but looking at this area, it is not much better than the surrounding small bungalows, you must know that in the current era of every inch of land, even in a remote mountainous area, occupy such a place to build a house, others will be dissatisfied, not to mention that the Muliushu family builds a house like this, and even has a fence to block it, which makes people feel very different

It's just that along the way, I also had a general understanding of his identity in the dialogue between the tree willow tree and the villagers, this wood willow tree is the village chief and doctor in this village, and many villagers will come to the wood willow tree to solve the problem when they are sick, so everyone has no wings about him occupying such a large piece of land

Mu Liushu came down all the way, and also introduced me to the situation of some villages, the vast majority of people in this village are surnamed Mu, the name of this village is called Mujia Village, and there are some villagers with other names, all of whom are related to each other, and the whole village is related to the family, but why their ancestors chose to settle in this place has long been unexaminable, and everyone does not care about these.

"Xie San, you live in that house, although it hasn't been cleaned for a long time, but it's still very clean, that is, my daughter came back to live for a while, the old man and I don't have a mother-in-law to live alone, so the food is not very good, the people in this village are not very xenophobic, you can communicate with them more, maybe it can help your paper." ”

I nodded and understood what it meant, I roughly cleaned it, after all, it was winter, but I had a warm sleeping bag, and I didn't need much other things, as long as I gave me a house without sun and rain, I put things away, said hello to the wood willow tree, and went straight out, I now urgently need to know the situation of this village and the surrounding mountains and forests, and I have just communicated with Bicheng on the phone, and reported my address to him, you must know that I disappeared inexplicably for a day and a night, Bicheng has long been in a hurry.

I went out and found an aunt, and I didn't see anything to greet her and shouted, "Auntie, I'll do a detailed understanding of the landscape around you, and then write a paper, I don't know if I can ask you?"

My aunt didn't see anything outside, nodded at me, first took out a stool from her door, put it next to herself, and then said with a smile, "Big brother, come and sit next to me, let's chat." As he spoke, he patted the stool next to him as if invited.

I was not polite, sat directly on the stool, you must know that the most widely spread in the world is the words of the aunt, each aunt can be said to represent a paragraph, if you want to understand the customs of a place, as long as you find an aunt, talk to her for an afternoon, to ensure that you can gain something.

It is said that this village has existed for a long time, although there have been many wars in the last century, but this village has not suffered any losses, because although this place now seems to be smooth, but there was a mountain road leading to this place back then, it can be said that a husband should not be opened, and it is precisely because of this that this village not only did not let the invaders destroy, but even the great revolution of the year, did not enter this village, although now it is a small bungalow, but it is very traditional, it can be said that there is a habit of inviting Mr. Feng Shui, for this kind of thing the people of this village are not excluded, more freedom than the place where the scientific concept of development is advocated outside.

Even the aunt named Mu Lihua took the initiative to introduce me to why their village is so rich, it turns out that only this place in the whole Jiangcheng City can produce a very unique tea, although this kind of tea is no different from boiled water, but the entrance is extremely mellow, many leaders and rich people will send people here to buy tea, and even set up a special sales company to promote this kind of tea, because of the uniqueness, this kind of tea is also very expensive, and naturally there is money in the village.

I rejected Aunt Mu's idea of inviting me to lunch at her house, but went to Mu Liushu's house, this old man is a few small dishes with white steamed buns, but this white steamed bun must be made by himself, it tastes really good, I chatted with Mu Liushu intentionally or unintentionally, I asked Mu Liushu slowly, "Uncle Mu, I want to ask, why is this village here?" I didn't want to ask, but I thought that the existence of this village was a little strange, so I thought about it and asked. (To be continued.) )
