44, Hongyan Lake
Wu Zhong, Gao Fei, Zhu Ziming Yiyi, Lin Yirong, Gao Yiqiong, the two teams left each other's contact information to ensure that they could keep in touch at any time, and then dispersed.
When Wu Zhong and the others came here, they were shocked by the natural beauty in front of them. They are located in the northern part of the country. At this time, the snow is heavy, and the endless trees are covered with beautiful rime, which sparkles in the sun, which is very beautiful. The three of them walked among the trees, their feet crunching on the thick snow.
The area is almost untouched, and there is no sign of human activity on the snow and ice on the ground. The three of them walked aimlessly, looking for something strange to do.
Although this departure was said to be to support the Jing'an Division, they didn't know anything about it and what happened. What kind of signs will there be, it is also not clear. Just tell them to look around, if there is any change, report it as soon as possible, but how can it be considered an change?
Wu Zhong looked into the distance, saw the endless snowfield, and felt helpless in his heart, he looked at Zhu Ziming and sighed.
"What did you find?" Wu Zhong asked.
Zhu Ziming shook his head, the place where the two of them could reach was not as good as one percent of this wilderness, if they explored at this pace, it was really no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.
Zhu Ziming sighed, squatted on the ground and said, "What should I do?
Wu Zhong also had nothing to say. At this time, Gao Fei, who was following the two of them, looked not far away and said softly, "Village." ”
Wu Zhong looked around, and there was indeed a dot in the northwest corner, presumably this was the village that Gao Fei said. But with the naked eye, the distance is at least two or three miles, how does Gao Fei know?
Wu Zhong and Zhu Ziming didn't ask, after all, everyone has their own secrets. Now that you have found the village, there must be people there, and if there is any change in the vicinity, it is better to ask the locals for a quick arrival than to look for a needle in a haystack.
The three of them agreed, jumped to their feet, and walked towards the village by all means.
When Wu Zhong came to the village, Gao Fei was already standing at the entrance of the village, and then Zhu Ziming also appeared beside them.
This little junior brother seems to have mastered all means of escape. Wu Zhong smiled in his heart.
The three of them stepped on the snowdrift and walked a few steps to finally set foot on the ground. It's not very comfortable to walk on the snow for a long time. Wu Zhong thought to himself.
At this time, the chimneys of every house were emitting pale gray smoke, and Wu Zhong and the three of them came to a nearby house, stood at the door and shouted, "Is there anyone?"
As soon as the words fell, the dog in the courtyard barked, and Gao Fei was so frightened that he hurriedly hid behind Wu Zhong.
"It's okay, it's okay, dog. Wu Zhong held the child's hand and said with a smile.
A short time later, a middle-aged woman walked out of one of the tiled houses inside.
The woman was wearing a thick coat and pants, and covered her head with a headscarf, and was opening the thick cotton curtain to look out of the door.
"Who?" she shouted.
Wu Zhong said loudly: "Auntie, we are here for a tour, and we have been separated from our friends, and we want to come to your side to drink some water and warm up." ”
The woman looked at Wu Zhong suspiciously, then turned around and didn't know who she was talking to, and then shouted: "Here, wait a minute!"
Then, a middle-aged man walked out from behind the woman, and it seemed that her husband and her husband were holding each other, and walked slowly to the door.
"Auntie, I'm really sorry, we really have nowhere to go, and my brother said that it was cold, so I couldn't bother the two of you. Wu Zhong said with an embarrassed face.
The middle-aged woman looked at Wu Zhong, then at the slightly younger Zhu Ziming, and when she saw Gao Fei, she said with a distressed face: "Oh my God, wear this less, come in quickly." ”
After saying that, he opened the door and welcomed the three of them in, and then the man locked the door again. Zhu Ziming secretly glanced at Wu Zhong and secretly admired it.
"Oh my God, you children, this cold day, wear so little, don't be afraid of freezing!" the woman grabbed Goofy's hand and covered it in her hand to keep him warm. Usually Gao Fei resisted others touching him the most, but when the woman saw that he wanted to withdraw his hand, she grabbed his hand and pretended to be angry and said, "What, are you still shy?" and hugged the three of them into the house.
As soon as Wu Zhong and the three of them entered, it was like coming to spring, and the rolling heat wave rushed to everyone, and a warmth rose from their hearts.
"It's just boiling water, dad boy, hurry up, pour them some water to drink." The woman led the three into the inner room and told the man to pour some glasses of water and bring them.
"Hurry up, sit on the kang. The woman said, then handed the water that the man had brought to the three men, "Quick, drink it while it's hot, sweat a little, or you'll catch a cold." ”
Wu Zhong smiled and said, "Auntie, it's okay, we're not cold." ”
The woman glared at him: "Isn't it cold to wear this? Don't think that if you are young, you are not afraid of anything." It's cold here!"
Wu Zhong and the three of them had to obediently turn out the water cup. With the woman watching, they finally drank the water, and then the two of them were lucky enough to force out a part of it and sweat. When the women saw this, they were relieved.
Seeing that the three of them were really fine, the man slowly spoke: "It's a cold day, why are you here?"
Wu Zhong said: "We came here on a trip with friends, and we were separated just now, but fortunately it was close to here, so we came here to avoid it first." ”
The man smiled, "What's so nice here." You said that you southerners will not stay at home during the Chinese New Year, and come to the northeast to suffer. ”
Zhu Ziming smiled and said, "Uncle, how do you know that we are southerners?"
The man smiled and said, "Do you see which Northeast man is strolling around on a cold day? Moreover, a few people came to our village two days ago, and they also said that they were here for tourism. About the same age as you, a bunch of half-grown children. ”
Wu Zhong listened, looked at Zhu Ziming, and secretly communicated: "Could it be that Jing'an Division has sent someone else?"
Zhu Ziming shook his head slowly, indicating that he didn't know.
"Are you hungry? It's almost time for my family to eat, let's eat together." Uncle said.
Wu Zhong and the others hurriedly thanked.
Soon, a large pot of steaming hand-rolled noodles was served, and a plate of Northeast miso and a small handful of fresh shallots were placed on the table.
"You're also in a hurry, if it's noon, you won't have anything to eat. It's fashionable to have two meals here. The uncle said, then took out the wine glass, and looked at Wu Zhong and Zhu Ziming with interest, "Come on?"
"Uncle, we don't drink. Zhu Ziming hurriedly waved his hand.
The uncle snorted and said, "What's wrong with this thing, it's like drinking water." Drink more if you can, and drink less if you can't. Come on, two mouthfuls. With that, he took out two cups and put them in front of Wu Zhong and Zhu Ziming. Wu Zhong and the others were startled when they saw it, this cup was no smaller than the cup for drinking water.
"Come on, on the hour. After the uncle finished speaking, he brought a wine barrel to a large glass.
Suddenly, a strong smell of wine came to the nostrils, and the two people who didn't drink often were dizzy. Wu Zhong and the others looked at this glass of wine and trembled in their hearts, even if they could be lucky enough to force out the wine, this big cup was enough to bear.
"Old woman, bring up the chicken stewed yesterday. The uncle said enthusiastically, "There's nothing to eat, don't dislike it." ”
Wu Zhong and the others hurriedly waved their hands and said no.
"Come, drink one!" the three cups slammed into each other, making a crisp sound.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, and half of the wine in the cup, Zhu Ziming's eyes were already foggy at this time, and he was obviously a little up.
Wu Zhong saw that the uncle was also a little drunk, so he said, "Uncle, you said that you saw someone coming two days ago, what did it look like?
The uncle took a sip of wine from his wine glass and said, "Like you, I'm here to travel." It seems like seven or eight people, on my second brother's side. I didn't know it at the time, but I didn't see it until they were gone. As for what it looks like, I don't know, but there is a little girl who is very good-looking. ”
At this time, his wife walked in: "The one who didn't have the door on his lips was talking nonsense in front of the children." Old and not serious. ”
"It's not too small, what are you afraid of. looks so handsome, what a beautiful woman has never seen. The uncle said, "Isn't it, nephew?"
Wu Zhong was ridiculed like this and became shy. After a while, he said, "Do you know where they went? We were a group of people here, maybe we still know each other." ”
The uncle pursed his lips, took a bite of the green onion dipping sauce, and said, "I don't know, I didn't pay attention." ”
Wu Zhong sighed when he heard this, turned his head to look at Zhu Ziming, who had already fallen asleep on the kang. Goofy, on the other hand, ran to the kitchen and stared at the burning stove.
"What are you doing here, there's nothing to see here. The uncle said, "If you want to play, go to a place more than 20 miles to the north, which is a famous scenic spot, and it is much better than here." However, this period of time is not peaceful, as if it is a landslide. ”
When Wu Zhong heard this, he immediately felt a lot of energy, the place that the uncle said must be the place they were searching for this time.
The two pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and chatted for a long time before Wu Zhong understood the situation.
The place that the uncle said refers to the Hongyan Lake Scenic Area, which is twenty-seven miles away from here. In the summer, there will be wild geese to stay, the reeds fluttering around, the breeze blowing, and the water surface sparkling, which is very beautiful. In winter, it is a place where people go to the net to catch fish, and just some time ago, they went there to catch a lot of wild fish.
As for the landslide he mentioned, it was after the winter fishing, so he didn't know what the situation was. Even if it's this, I still listen to what others say.
"It's a bit evil over there, and when you go in, you don't know the south, south, west, and north, and when you come out, you have to look at the sun. If it's too late and you can't get out, you'll definitely freeze to death the next day. The uncle said matter-of-factly.
Wu Zhong nodded, and at this time Zhu Ziming had already sobered up and got up to sit on the kang.
"Is there anything unusual besides this? Or this landslide, can I hear that someone died?" asked Zhu Ziming.
"This one doesn't. The uncle said firmly, "If someone dies, our government will not hide it." Otherwise, it will definitely be dealt with. ”
Wu Zhong and Zhu Ziming glanced at each other and decided to go there first.
