"Although the conditions are difficult, we all have to overcome them, if we can't endure this little bit of hardship, what will we say in the future to go all over the world and go deep into the earth 3,000 feet." Xiao Zihan seemed to have known the difficult conditions here, and commanded: "Don't say more, everyone, bring all the travel and tools, we will spend the night at the mayor's house tonight, and then we will go at noon tomorrow." ”

Just as everyone was busy with their own travel, two figures walked down from the town, one with a flashlight in his hand, and shouted from afar before he arrived: "Is it a comrade from Tianjing Qinghua University?" ”

"It's us, is it Mayor Amu?" Xiao Zihan replied loudly.

"Yes, yes, I hope for the stars and the moon, but I hope for you." The man with the flashlight was overjoyed, and both of them sped up, and soon they were in front of everyone.

Xiao Zihan greeted him, took the initiative to reach out and shook hands with the mayor and said, "I'm sorry for you, Mayor Amu, I am Xiao Zihan, the tutor of Qingda, and I was delayed on the road just now, so you have been waiting for a long time." ”

"Hehe, wait soon, wait soon, ......wait soon" Mayor Amu is an old man in his fifties, although he is called the mayor, in fact, he is half a level higher than the ordinary village chief, and he is also a person from the mountains, he has never seen a delicate girl like Xiao Zihan, as soon as his calloused hand touched Xiao Zihan's soft and tender hand, he immediately took it back like an electric shock, and said with a good smile.

It's not that there is a difference between men and women, but that the people in the mountains are simple, this girl's little hands are tender, his hands are thick and old, as if they have thorns, and he is afraid of cutting off the jade hands of other girls.

"Mayor Amu, come, let me introduce to you, this is Professor Du Mingcheng, a famous geologist in China, and the captain of our expedition team." Xiao Zihan was quite puzzled by Mayor Amu's reaction, but although it was in the dim headlights, she could still see that this was a simple old man in the mountains.

"Hello Professor Du, hello!" Different from the caution of shaking hands with Xiao Zihan, Mayor Amu and Professor Du shook hands much more enthusiastically, geologist, this is the biggest scholar he has ever seen in his life.

There have been several groups of exploration teams that have passed through here before, but among those pioneer teams, there are no big names like Du Mingcheng.

"Mayor Amu, I'm causing you trouble." Professor Du smiled.

Zhou Tian could see that this old man's dealings with the mountain people were much more natural, and in a few words, he became one with Mayor Amu, and finally under the leadership of Mayor Amu, the group walked into Huangya Town.

Huangya Town is indeed very small, only a few acres of land in a radius, there are not many houses, but there are several roads, each path is paved with pebbles, the mountain town after the rain, giving people a fresh and clean feeling.

Mayor Amu brought everyone to his home, two eyes of the wooden building, a few small houses, the yard is planted with a mountain locust and a chicken claw fruit, on the pole under the wooden building, there are two rows of waxed game, there are hares and wild boars, etc., each hanging is smoked black, some students ask why it is so black, only pickled meat is not more delicious, Mayor Amu is not annoyed, is very patient to explain to everyone.

It turns out that the rejection of taste is not to mention, compared with smoked cured meat, the latter can be stored for a longer time without refrigerator and other refrigeration, and is not easy to mold, and is easy to store. Another point is that the general cured meat is very attractive to mice and cockroaches, there are many mice in the mountains, and the cured meat hangs there, if you don't pay attention to it, it is easy to be eaten by mice, but the smoky cured meat, the rats are afraid of the smell of fireworks, and there are generally no rats to steal it, and it is okay to hang there for as long as you want.

This made everyone very knowledgeable, and many students asked many questions of interest, and Mayor Amu also gave them a detailed explanation.

"Okay, everyone has been in the car for a day, and has been trapped by the heavy rain for a long time, and has opened the road, they must be hungry, let's sit down and eat, we have nothing to entertain in the mountains, just two or three dishes, but the food is enough."

While talking, the kitchen has prepared a meal, and there are three tables in the courtyard, each table is filled with a large pot of game, and a few bowls of side dishes, fragrant meat, hooking everyone's stomach The gluttonous worms are all up, Mayor Amu hurriedly beckoned everyone to sit at the table, and personally invited Professor Du and Xiao Zihan to sit at the main table, and let people come out with a jar of unopened wine.

"Professor Du, this is our home-brewed wine in the mountains, come and taste it." Mayor Amu personally patted open the sealing mud, first poked a small hole in the sealing paper, and the rich and mellow aroma of wine overflowed, and everyone couldn't help but sniffle.

"Mayor Amu, this wine is so fragrant!"

"That's right, it's more fragrant than Moutai!"

The other two tables were all students, and only Zhou Tian was the only one who could sit with Professor Du and Xiao Zihan, which Professor Du was pleased with, and the students all shouted loudly when they smelled the wine.

Mayor Amu smiled honestly: "Of course it's fragrant, the water for this wine is the mountain spring water on the mountain, this wine is still brewed when I married my mother-in-law, it has been buried in the ground for more than 30 years, but it is fragrant and mellow, and now there are a few jars left, if Professor Du comes today, I am reluctant to take it out and drink it." What I admire most in my life is cultured people, and today this jar of wine can be drunk by Professor Du, which is its blessing. ”

This old man is really good at talking! All the students thought in their hearts. They originally wanted to coax Mayor Amu to get them a jar too, but when the old man said this, who else was embarrassed to ask for it, several students who were good at wine stared at Zhou Tian's table and swallowed their saliva.

"Mayor Amu, you're so polite, I'm really flattered!" Professor Du smiled, but secretly swallowed his saliva.

In addition to studying knowledge, this old scholar is good at the things in the cup, and when he is free, he has no wine and no joy, and at this time he smells the fragrant wine, and the wine worm immediately climbs up, if it were not for his identity, he would have snatched it and poured it himself.

Mayor Amu first poured a bowl for Professor Du, Xiao Zihan and Zhou Tian, and then poured a bowl for himself, and then picked up the bowl and said with a smile: "The wine is full of respect, today the distinguished guests are coming, the magpie is singing the nest, the old man is very happy, come, I respect Professor Du, Professor Xiao and this talented man a bowl!" ”

"This is Zhou Tian, a top student of our Youth University." Xiao Zihan took the initiative to introduce.

Professor Du and the others were very polite, and then picked up the bowl and drank a big drink.

"Good wine, good wine, really good wine!" When the wine entered his throat, Professor Du couldn't help but slap the table and marvel.

"Huh?"

Zhou Tian only took a small sip, a ray of light flashed in his eyes, he was silent on the surface, but in his heart, he was extremely shocked......
