Chapter 82: The Mountain and the Man

Huangshi Township.

With the help of Gao Zhiyang, Wu Feng quickly completed the transcript and achieved his wish, that is, to prohibit anyone from mentioning righteous and courageous deeds, and to use the joint efforts of the people to subdue the car robbers to cover up the past.

People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and Wu Feng doesn't need to use this little thing to gain a good reputation.

But the people who saved a car saved everyone's property from being looted, and all kinds of words of thanks were heard, and Huang Yu, the old director of the Huangshi Township Police Station, who was over forty years old, strongly invited Wu Feng and Shi Linger to attend the reception.

This reception banquet was originally set up for Gao Zhiyang and other personnel of the county public security bureau, but this time four forest and fire policemen, two drivers and the only criminal policeman Gao Zhiyang.

Gao Zhiyang's main purpose in coming to grassroots police stations was to guide rural police stations to strengthen patrols against hunting and resolutely crack down on criminal activities such as hunting with guns and gathering crowds to gamble.

No matter who came down from the county public security bureau, they were all "leaders" at the grassroots level, and Huang Yu, the director of the police station, was even more honest, and he definitely wanted to have a good drink with a few "leaders".

But this luncheon, which was postponed to two o'clock in the afternoon, because there were more Wu Feng and Shi Ling'er, it seemed a little restrained, Shi Ling'er was already in poor health, Wu Feng simply said goodbye after a few glasses of wine.

The small Huangshi Township Market in the backwoods of Bazhou has two rows of buildings and bungalows along the last stretch of gravel road leading to Bazhou.

The rural credit cooperative, with no supermarkets or department stores, and all its rusty signboards, is the only financial institution here.

Standing at the door of the drunken township restaurant, which can be regarded as the highest grade in Huangshi Township, Wu Feng carried his duffel bag and pulled Shi Ling'er's suitcase, looking at the potholed street and the deserted buildings on both sides of the road in amazement.

The scorching sun is shining, and the cow, sheep and horse dung left on the street are mixed with all kinds of garbage.

Wu Feng looked around, and saw a mobile communication signal base station standing on the top of a mountain, and finally felt that the place where the bird didn't poop had some modern signs.

Shi Ling'er stretched out the parasol, looked at Wu Feng's extremely disappointed look, and smiled shyly: "Brother Feng, do you regret it?" This is still the countryside, and when you get to my village, you will be even more troubled! ”

Wu Feng grinned and said, "It's okay, it's enough to have Sister Ling'er!" ”

Shi Ling'er smiled lightly, don't turn around and take the lead, Wu Feng can only follow closely.

As soon as the two of them took a few steps, Gao Zhiyang rushed out of the restaurant drunk.

"Hey, Brother Feng, wait for me!"

Gao Zhiyang shouted and rushed up, grabbed Wu Feng's shoulders and asked with a smile: "Brother Feng hasn't left me a phone yet, I turned around and passed through Bazhou, we brothers must have a good drink!" ”

"Say, I thought you were ready to send your brother and sister-in-law up the mountain!"

Wu Feng glanced at Gao Zhiyang, but still gave his phone number.

Touching the back of his head, Gao Zhiyang said with an embarrassed face: "Brother, Director Huang also said at the dinner table, the road conditions in Qingshi Village, where my brother and sister are located, are extremely poor, and the road is repaired as if it has not been repaired, and the younger brother has the heart to drive you and your sister-in-law over, but what if you fall into the mountains......

Wu Feng interrupted Gao Zhiyang's explanation, and said angrily: "Come on, you have a lot of reasons, if you don't send it, you won't send it, Lao Tzu just take a few more steps to see the scenery!" ”

Gao Zhiyang stopped talking, and looked at Shi Ling'er with an innocent face, expecting his sister-in-law to help explain.

"You go back first, thank you for your kindness!"

Shi Ling'er's words undoubtedly relieved Gao Zhiyang, and after nodding one after another, he went back to accompany the wine, and as soon as the person left, Shi Ling'er persuaded Wu Feng.

"Brother Feng, if you ask Gao Zhiyang to drive us to Qingshi Village, it is really possible that he will not be able to go back, unless it is a tractor!"

"The road, is it really that frustrated?"

Wu Feng was at a loss, he really didn't know what kind of poor mountain village he would face next.

Born in sorrow, died in peace.

Thinking of the barrenness of Qingshi Village depicted by Shi Ling'er, Wu Feng was really worried that he would not be able to find a place to eat and live at night, so before leaving the village market, Wu Feng hurriedly bought a lot of supplies, from instant noodles and ham sausages to beef jerky candies, Wu Feng even had flashlights and alcohol lamps ready, and there was a posture of going to the wasteland to explore.

Carrying a heavy snakeskin bag and picking up Shi Ling'er's suitcase, Wu Feng became a mountain picker in the new era, and followed Shi Ling'er to set off along the shocking muddy road.

There is a mountain road from Huangshi Township to Qingshi Village, and it was only last year that the government stepped forward to drive the villagers to shoulder and carry it on their shoulders together, using hoes, shovels and steel tongs to wind along the steep mountain range and carve out a narrow road for only one truck to pass in one direction.

The steep slopes of the mountain, the muddy road, and the fact that the roadbed has rammed some rocks, and the breaches that have been washed away by flash floods are everywhere along the way, which perfectly explains why the road has not been opened to traffic since it was built.

It was along such a super-primitive highway that Wu Feng easily followed Shi Ling'er and crossed the first mountain as if he were marching with a load.

Standing on the top of the mountain and overlooking the Huangshi Township below the mountain, it is like a gathering point of residents surrounded by mountains, and in the field of vision, there are more steep mountains, dense forests, and turbulent rivers.

Shi Ling'er's face has been covered with a happy smile, and when she returned to her hometown and smelled the smell of the country, the whole person was relaxed and happy, looking back and seeing Wu Feng like a porter, Shi Ling'er let out a silver bell-like laugh.

"Giggles, Brother Feng, are you tired? Why don't we take a break? ”

"Tired?"

Wu Feng snorted coldly, carried Shi Ling'er's suitcase with one hand with his left hand, patted his chest with his right hand and said, "Your brother has strength, or will I carry you down the mountain?" ”

"Hmph, I won't agree, you know to take advantage of others!"

With a proud snort, Shi Ling'er carried a small backpack and held up a parasol and jumped down the mountain, and Wu Feng behind him was stunned.

"Strange, isn't she afraid of side leaks? Today's sanitary napkins are too strong! ”

Muttering, Wu Feng hurriedly chased after him.

The mountains are undulating and endless.

Although it is not open to traffic, it can still be regarded as a mud road with a big road, only leading to the entrance of the village committee of Qingshi Village, and there is no one guarding this mud house on the mountainside, if it is not for the black characters on the white background, Wu Feng really can't see that this is the village committee.

Next, there's the sheep intestine path.

After walking for more than two hours, Shi Ling'er's happy mood of returning to his hometown was finally worn off by the difficulties of the rugged mountain road, and his chattering mouth was finally completely closed, and he reached out from time to time to wipe the fine sweat off his forehead, and let out a soft sigh again and again.

As the name suggests, Qingshi Village is a lot of stones, along the sheep intestine path, the mountain is not high, but you can see large and small stones everywhere, in the words of Shi Ling'er, the soil quality of Qingshi Village is very poor, the soil is thin and poor, and there are all kinds of rocks and gravel, even if you apply more fertilizer, you can not grow fruitful food.

Therefore, since the cultivation of Qingshi Village, it has never been able to get rid of the hard work of asking for arable land from the barren mountains and wild soils, and every household has to go to reclamation if they want to get more food.

It was the rice harvest season, but there was not much fertile land in Qingshi Village, just the thin fields along the river that were artificially carved out at the foot of the mountain, and you could see the villagers working.

"Look, Qingshi Village is small!"

Suddenly, Shi Ling'er, who was walking in front, shouted happily, and then trotted over happily.

Wu Feng looked up, only to see a mountain col flat dam in the distance, there was indeed a mud wall and mud tile house standing, if it weren't for the fact that there were many children playing in the open space in front of the house, Wu Feng really couldn't see that it was Qingshi Village Primary School.

Keeping up with Shi Ling'er's pace briskly, the closer Wu Feng walked, the more heavy his heart felt.

The children were playing eagle and catching chickens, and their innocent faces were full of happy smiles, although they were dirty, and several of them were covered in mud, and the snot on their red cheeks had dried out, but their black eyes were extremely smart.

Before Shi Ling'er got closer, senior students had already discovered her.

"Sister Ling'er!"

"Sister Ling'er is back!"

Several girls screamed and cheered and rushed over, and after a long distance, they opened their hands and threw themselves into Shi Ling'er's arms.

Wu Feng was stunned, none of the girls who rushed over were not yellow and thin, and the clothes on their bodies were also very incompatible, probably picking up their brothers and sisters.

A girl with two ponytails on her head less than 1.5 meters is obvious, she is wearing a men's T-shirt with a hole in the upper body, a pair of women's sweatpants on the lower body, and a pair of straw sandals on her feet.

"This ......"

Wu Feng was a little dumbfounded, he was still an orphanage in Rongdu City, although the food and clothing were far from catching up with the children of families in the city, but compared to these dolls now, they were really dozens of times happier.

But Shi Ling'er didn't care about these at all, she was the secretary of the president of Baiye Trading Group, as if she was hugging her own sisters, nodding her little head, pinching her face, and kept asking how her academic performance was.

At this moment, Wu Feng suddenly felt that the lively and joyful aura on Shi Ling'er's body had disappeared temporarily, and was replaced by a kind of tenderness emanating from selfless love, which made Wu Feng suddenly feel that Ling'er seemed to have grown up.

"Sister Ling'er!"

A couple of mischievous boys ran after them, some of them snorting while screaming.

At this time, the teacher of the village elementary school also came out.

Wu Feng clearly saw Shi Ling'er's delicate body shocked, and then walked towards the teacher with a few girls in his arms.

"Teacher Ye, I'm back!"

Shi Ling'er cried and threw herself into Teacher Ye's arms.

Teacher Ye, who has a kind smile from the moment he appears, is dressed very plainly, and his washed white skirt and leather shoes that have been repaired countless times all tell the poverty of the village.

However, the smile that appeared on Mr. Ye's wrinkled face was always so amiable, which made Wu Feng suddenly think of the director of the orphanage.

Shi Ling'er threw herself into Teacher Ye's arms and cried for a while before it stopped, Wu Feng had already opened his pocket at this time, took out all the candies that were originally intended to be used as snacks for Shi Ling'er, and distributed them to the children.

"Come on, kids, everybody, don't worry! Don't rob it! ”

At this moment, Wu Feng seemed to be no longer the mercenary who roamed the African desert rainforest, he was just a big brother who distributed candy and snacks.

"He's your boyfriend?"

Teacher Ye pointed to Wu Feng, a sunny and caring young man who distributed all kinds of delicious food to the children not far away, and Teacher Ye nodded in approval.

"That's it, it's not!"

Shi Ling'er glanced at Wu Feng shyly, pursed her lips and hid in Teacher Ye's arms, her little heart fluttering.

Teacher Ye stroked Shi Ling'er's head and laughed softly: "Our Ling'er has grown up, and it's time to get married!" ”

"Teacher Ye!"

Shi Ling'er was embarrassed and buried her head deeper.
