Chapter 504: The End of the Arduous Journey Is Unmarried

Without the Internet and not answering the phone, Xu Shuang lived an isolated life in an unknown town. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The ice and snow trees under the sun are as tall as the blue sky, and they are as beautiful as a fairy tale.

Xu Shuangchuan stood far away, looking up. A gust of wind passed, and the snow on the branches fluttered down, and scattered into a large puff of soft white flying flotsam in the air, and adults and children jumped away with screams and wows, with excited smiles on their faces.

When the snow covered the ground, she retracted her gaze, looked down at her boots that were submerged in the snow, pulled them up, and walked forward one foot at a time, two or three meters later, and then looked back, leaving a clear line of footprints on the white snow.

Climbing a mountain is a lonely journey.

Although there were tourists talking and laughing loudly along the way, Xu Shuangchuan had no companions, no one to talk to her, and they encouraged each other. Occasionally, she saw a little squirrel scurrying in the forest, so she hurriedly took a photo, and when she saw the ice hanging on the tree shining dazzlingly in the sun, she also took a photo, and took the opportunity to stop and rest for a while.

When he arrived at the mouth of the glacier canyon, Xu Shuangluo was almost out of strength.

"Hi, you're here too. In the rest pavilion, Xie Jingzhen held up the SLR camera, took off his sunglasses, and greeted her.

He was really well prepared, with a hood, sunglasses, gloves, trekking poles, and even his boots were a cut higher than Xu Shuang's. On the other hand, Xu Shuang fell, traveled in a hurry, without preparation, and only had a bottle of cold mineral water in his backpack.

"Hello. Xu Shuang gasped, she was very polite to Xie Jingzhen, if it wasn't for his reminder to rent crampons yesterday, she would have forgotten the stubble explained by the tour guide, then the long plank road in the mountains today may not be able to walk, I don't know how many falls I have.

The two of them went into the canyon together. The boardwalk has come to an end, and this section of the road is rocky, deep in snow, and extremely rugged.

"We follow in the footsteps of others. Xie said in surprise.

"Hmm. ā€

In front of them, there were two men, two women, one who was obviously a couple, and the other who couldn't be seen very well, but who were also acquaintances and friends.

There is a place in the snow that resembles a broken hill, with a drop of about forty or fifty centimeters. A man jumped off first, handed it to his girlfriend with his backhand, and encouraged: "Take your time, I'll pull you." ā€

The girlfriend moved a small step, screaming, stepping down step by step, the slope was really steep, the snow was slippery, she walked carefully, very slowly, when she landed, her body rushed forward, and she threw herself into the man's arms in fright.

The man stood firmly, hugged the girl and patted her back: "Awesome, awesome." ā€

Xu Shuangchuan waited behind, looking at the two people below, and suddenly thought of Chen Chi. Once, they also had such a sweet time. She walked on the mountain road in Uncle Wang's village, and Chen Chi would also be the leader in front, and when she encountered a small dirt ridge, he had to reflexively lead her and say be careful.

Memories of the past rolled in the wind of the canyon and became cold. Xu Shuangjiang brushed away the broken hair covered in front of his forehead, and he was in an indescribable trance.

The other man among the four was also very imposing, and after jumping down easily, he also stretched out his hand and said, "I'll pick you up." ā€

The rest of the girls seemed to be a little squirming, and finally held their hands shyly, and the man held them steady and moved them down.

After this group of people left, the bumps were full of chaotic footprints, and they became more and more slippery.

Xie was stunned to jump before Xu Shuang, turned around and said, "I'll pull you." ā€

"No, I don't. Xu Shuang lowered her head, waved her hand, and motioned him to step back a little, she looked at the height of the broken hurdle, did not hesitate, jumped down, landed steadily, and commented in her mouth, "The smaller the step, the harder it is to walk." ā€

"Yes. Xie laughed.

Xu Shuang thought to herself, relying on herself, she had to be like this, how long can a delicate woman do it?

If someone holds it, you can be coquettish for a while. I have to be strong by myself.

"Do you want to take a picture? I can take a picture of you. Xie said enthusiastically.

"No, thank you. ā€

Xu Shuangchuan didn't have a selfie rod, nor did she ask others to help take pictures, and along the way, she only took a few landscape photos. In fact, what she wanted to do most was to find a stool and take a quiet nap in this sun-shrouded canyon snow.

"Hey, don't go far. The tour guide said there might be an ice cave underneath. Xie shouted in surprise.

At this time, Xu Shuang had already fallen more than 20 meters away from the crowd. After all, she is a person who pays attention to safety, and when she was reminded by Xie Jing, even if she was greedy for quietness, she nodded and turned back, and merged into the crowd gathering area like black ants.

As far as the eye can see, it is really a big canyon, icy and snowy, the sun is shining, and the exposed glacier is shining with crystal light, and she and thousands of years have seen it like this.

Xu Shuang's fugue was interrupted by Xie Jingzhen again: "The glacier is covered with snow, only this piece is exposed, and nothing else can be seen. I heard from the person who carried the pole that a person fell last year, but fortunately the backpack got stuck and nothing happened. ā€

Xie Jingzhen is a very good person, on the way back, he is on a trekking pole to explore the way, he will wait for Xu Shuangjiang, meet a few group guests, Xu Shuangjiang is still pondering his face is familiar, he has already recognized and greeted. Xu Shuangchuan was like joining a temporary team, and he also said some polite words and laughed a few times with his teammates, and his mood was a little relaxed.

After walking for a short time on the way back, Xu Shuangchuan became more and more panting, and she couldn't hold on, and she wanted to call a sliding rod to carry her down. Another fifty or sixty-year-old aunt was wearing shoes that were not on the right road and couldn't walk, Xie Jingzhen and his group members beckoned two sliding rods, and several old men surrounded the porter to help them both bargain.

The bargaining between men is really up and down, bold to bold.

"No, no, no, I've never done this before. ā€

"That's it, we two ladies are so light, you don't have to suffer if you lift them than those little fat mounds, the price must be given to us. ā€

"Come on, come down, go down the mountain and give you a discount. ā€

After agreeing on the solid price, Xu Shuangjiang sat on the sliding pole and looked back at the walking group members, who felt a little warmed for the first time in the past few days.

Returning from the scenic spot, Xu Shuangchuan lay exhausted on the hotel bed waiting for dinner. Not long after, she received a notification text message that Chen Chi had recharged her phone with his payment account.

That's a lot of money, enough for her to use next year.

Xu Shuangjiang tucked the phone under the pillow. After a while, I felt panicked, turned over and sat up, and looked at the scenery outside the window in a daze.

It's a thousand mountains and twilight snow again.

She was most afraid of this kind of dusk, lonely and vast, but she seemed to smell the smell of cooking smoke. This can always make people feel homesick, but when she thinks of the half-new two-bedroom apartment thousands of miles away, she doesn't know what to miss, the tables and chairs that she hastily wiped before going out on vacation, or the natural gas main valve that she forgot to turn off?

Only Mom and Dad's home is always there, so that she can think steadily. The place where she and Chen Chi lived, at best, could only be called a place to live, and after a few years of fluctuation, even people were unstable.

Xu Shuang stood up and went to return the crampons.

She took back the deposit, turned her head, and saw Xie Jingzhen baking a brazier in front of a small shop five or six meters away.

"Come over and roast?" he said.

"Come on. The local lady with a black and red face spoke stiff Mandarin and smiled and beckoned.

Xu Shuangchuan hesitated slightly, and decided to sit down. She is very strange about this way of heating, at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun is a little thin, many families on the small street will light a brazier outside the door, add a few pieces of firewood to the iron pot, put a few low stools next to it, a few people around the fire chatting, not afraid of the cold wind outside.

"I rented crampons at this shop, and my aunt kindly asked me to dry my hands. Xie said in surprise.

The lady was very simple and just smiled: "Are you having fun?"

"Happy. Xu Shuangchuan praised politely, "Auntie, the scenery here is so good." ā€

"We're all tired of watching it, and it's not the same thing. You're from a big city on the plains, and we want to go to a big city. ā€

"Oh. Xu Shuangchuan looked at Xie Jingzhen speechlessly, she hung her hands on the brazier, flipped her wrist like a lady, and slowly, there was a trace of pathos in her heart, it turned out that these silent mountains around her were so beautiful that outsiders were amazed, and in the eyes of those who were used to seeing it, they would be tired of seeing it day after day.

"I have an eldest daughter, I went out to study, and I will graduate in another year, and my second son can't study, so I let them live with my sister and brother, or go out to work, it's not good here, there are not many people, there is no work, you can find a job in the city." The aunt has a strong accent, but she is talkative, "What do you all do?"

"I do consulting. ā€

"What consultation?" the eldest lady didn't understand.

"Psychologically," Xie was stunned and glanced at Xu Shuang, and saw that the eldest lady was very dazed, and said with a smile, "It's just that if there is something wrong with people, I will chat with them." ā€

"Can this also make money?" the eldest lady said in surprise and turned to Xu Shuangchuan, "What about you, sister?"

"I'm typing computer files in the office. Xu Shuangchuan said plainly.

"This is good," the eldest lady said enviously, "My eldest daughter has studied business management, and I also hope that she will find an office job next year, and she will marry someone else in the future, just like you, just go once in the New Year." Are you married?"

Xu Shuangchuan was afraid that the eldest mother would misunderstand, so she hurriedly said: "I'm married." ā€

"I didn't. ā€

The eldest lady was immediately curious: "I heard that you people in the city got married very late. My son is eighteen years old, and the matchmaker has been to the house. ā€

Xie shook his head with a smile: "I'm not married." ā€

Xu Shuangchuan couldn't help but look sideways at Xie Jing, which sounded a little strange.

"Ah, don't get married, who will cook and wash your clothes for you in the future?" The eldest lady chattered, and when she looked up, a few people came to ask how to rent crampons, and she quickly got up to greet business.

Xie was shocked to see Xu Shuang's strange expression, shrugged his shoulders and said frankly: "I am unmarried. ā€

"Not married?" Xu Shuangchuan was really surprised.

"More thorough than Dink, a person can go wherever he wants, do whatever he wants, there is no drag, and there is no drag on others. ā€

This is the first time Xu Shuangchuan has heard of not getting married, she originally thought that Li Tingting's non-marriage was forced to delay for various reasons, and she didn't expect that there would be such an active non-marriage as Xie Jingzhen.

"Why?"

"For freedom, for uninhibitedness. ā€
