Chapter Eighty-Six: The Mountain Road
After eating, Wang Lei took the initiative to settle the bill, said hello to Li Zhaodi again, and then left the small restaurant and walked towards the opposite mountain.
"Leizi, did you say that Mrs. Li would ask you to help find the tomb?" The big one asked curiously.
"That old lady is just an archaeology professor, and she is not from the local cultural relics bureau, she can't be the master at all, let it be." Wang Lei said disapprerovantly, now for him, the important thing is to find what Xuanyun Daoist left behind.
"That's also, once it comes to the country, it takes a lot of time just to grind the skin, not to mention the interests and responsibilities involved." The big man nodded and said.
"Let's go quickly, we can't go down the mountain after dark, and we will have to sleep on the mountain by then." Wang Lei greeted, and then quickened his pace.
"Leizi, can you recognize the way? Would you like to find a local guide? The big one said with some concern.
"Don't worry, I can't lose you." Wang Lei shook his head and smiled, with the secret guidance of the Xuanyun Daoist and the confirmation of the owner of the small restaurant, Wang Lei could probably determine the location of the Taoist temple where the Xuanyun Daoist lived before, and he was not worried about getting lost.
It was already noon, and the sun in the sky was just right, but the mountains were overgrown with tall trees, and the sunlight could only shine through the branches and leaves of the trees, and faintly sprinkled on the ground.
Wang Lei is a northerner, rarely sees such a lush forest, and has been staying in the capital for the last few years, rarely having the opportunity to be in nature.
Walking on the rugged mountain road, although the body will be a little tired, but the spirit is very relaxed, if it is not to find the items left by the Xuanyun Dao Chief, Wang Lei even wants to lie down at the foot of the mountain to sleep.
"Leizi, why don't we rest for a while." The big man held on to the tree on the side, gasping for breath, he hadn't exercised for a long time, and mountaineering was the most physical, and his legs were a little weak after not walking for a while.
Wang Lei stopped, took a sip of mineral water, looked at the scenery in the distance and said: "Actually, it is not bad to settle in this kind of place, it is easy to calm people's hearts, and they can also have less desire. Hope. ”
"The two of us came at the wrong time, if it is in a month or two, there will be snow on the top of the mountain in the distance, and the scenery is really beautiful." The big one said.
Wang Lei nodded, there are many evergreen trees on the mountains near here, even in winter, there will still be green plants, and if the top of the mountain is snow-white, the strong color contrast will give people a great sense of impact.
"The more we rest, the more tired we become, let's climb up slowly, I'll lead the way in front." Wang Lei put away the mineral water bottle and continued to climb towards the mountain, but this time he slowed down.
The road up the mountain is not easy to walk, if you don't buy a pair of hiking shoes in advance, Wang Lei will definitely work harder, even so Wang Lei also regrets a little, did not buy a pair of gloves in advance, and then climb the branches to move forward, which can save effort and do not have to worry about breaking your hands.
Wang Lei made up his mind that after returning to the capital this time, he must increase the amount of exercise, make his body stronger, and often participate in outdoor sports, which is very good for physical and mental health, and it is not a good thing to always blindly nest in the city.
"Damn, look at the snake ahead." Suddenly, the big man grabbed Wang Lei, pointed to the position in front of the left, and shouted.
The big one's sudden shout also startled Wang Lei, instinctively shrank back, his eyes swept into the grass in front of him, and sure enough, he saw a snake head holding a scarlet letter.
This snake is not very large, it looks less than a meter long, the whole body is green, the belly is slightly lighter, the eyes, tail and tail tip are burnt red, the body side often has a longitudinal line made of red and white half or white back scales, the head is large, triangular, there are cheek sockets between the eyes and nostrils, the back of the head is small scales, and the tail is relatively short.
"Run, it's your sister's bamboo leaf green, this thing is poisonous, it's over if you bite it." After seeing the appearance of the snake, the big one shouted in shock.
"Don't shout, the more you scare it, the more it bites you, you're a Shuzhou person afraid of snakes?" Wang Lei scolded in a low voice, and hurriedly retreated back, keeping a distance from the snake with a green body.
"I'll rub, who said that Shuzhou people can't be afraid of snakes, what kind of theory are you, according to what you say, people in the Northeast are not afraid of the cold." The big one said.
"You've seen a lot of this thing, what do you say you should do?" Wang Lei frowned, he had seen snakes in his hometown before, but most of them were round-headed non-venomous snakes in the north, and he had no experience in dealing with this kind of poisonous snake.
"How can I get it, I'm not a person who specializes in catching snakes, of course I have to avoid it, otherwise if I am bitten by it, I will have to lie down for half a month if I don't die, I don't want to suffer that sin." The big one said.
"Listen to you." Wang Lei breathed a long sigh of relief, seeing this green thing, he was spitting out a red letter and staring at him, Wang Lei was also a little worried in his heart.
Fortunately, Zhu Yeqing did not take the initiative to attack the two, Wang Lei guarded the bamboo leaf green snake while tearing off a branch more than one meter long, so that if Zhu Yeqing bit it, Wang Lei could also pick the other party away, so as not to be passively bitten.
Wang Lei and the two stood in place, planned a new climbing route, bypassed the bamboo leaf green snake in front, escaped the catastrophe without danger, and continued to climb in the direction of the top of the mountain.
However, this time when they encountered the bamboo leaf green snake, it also made the two of them a little scared, and they would hold branches before walking and sweep the grass in front of them, so that they could startle the snake in advance, so that they would not be inexplicably bitten when they came to the front, which was also an experience gained from fright.
……
Beijing, Tianyuan Community.
Today, Han Yue was resting at home, half lying on the sofa in the living room, and the big TV of more than fifty inches in front of her was on, but Han Yue was in a daze and was in no mood to enjoy the TV program.
Since talking to Wang Lei, Han Yue has been thinking about whether to tell her parents about it, although it is a good thing to have the opportunity to find her younger brother, but many years have passed, and her parents' lives have calmed down, but once this matter is brought up again, once she sees hope for her parents again, her parents will definitely spare no effort to find it again, it is a good thing to be able to find it, if it is still empty joy in the end, parents will only fall into pain again.
Han Yue patted her forehead vigorously, in the past two days, because of thinking about this matter, her head is about to explode, life is often like this, when there is no choice, it is helpless, and when facing a choice, it is hesitant and painful, but it is better to be calm when there is no choice.
"Yueyue, what's wrong with you in the past two days, you've been worried, is there something on your mind?" At this moment, a middle-aged woman walked into the living room and sat next to Han Yue and said with concern.
This middle-aged woman has short ears and short hair, a plump figure, a good appearance, slightly dark skin, and her eyebrows and eyes are vaguely similar to Han Yue, who is Han Yue's mother Li Yuefen.
"Mom, you don't have a sound when you walk, it startles me." Han Yue suddenly came back to her senses and said.
"Nonsense, mom is not a cat, how can you walk without a sound, it's not that you're distracted." Li Yuefen scolded with a smile.
"Oh." Han Yue replied lightly.
"Yueyue, what do you want? Tell your mom about it. Li Yuefen asked.
"It's nothing." Han Yue shrugged her shoulders and said perfunctorily.
"It's nothing, wrinkles are about to be squeezed out on the door of the head, let my mother guess......" Li Yuefen stretched out her index finger, tapped Han Yue's forehead, and guessed: "Is it not, I have a boyfriend again?" ”
"No, I don't worry about that kind of thing." Han Yue pursed her lips and said.
"At your age, it's normal to worry about emotional matters, if you don't have to worry about this kind of thing, then why do you look sad all day long?" Li Yuefen wondered.
Han Yue bit her red lip lightly, and after muttering for a while, she finally made up her mind and asked, "Mom, do you believe in fortune telling?" ”
"Why do you ask about this?" Li Yuefen said.
"Mom, you answer me first." Han Yue grabbed her mother's arm and asked again.
"Fortune-telling is such a thing, you can't believe it, you can't believe it, it still depends on what happens." Li Yuefen said.
"The other day...... I went to a friend's banquet and met a feng shui master at the banquet, and he ...... to me" Han Yue stared at her mother's expression and said hesitantly.
"What's wrong with him?" Li Yuefen asked, pondered in her mind, showed a look of surprise, and guessed:
"Yueyue, you don't want to tell your mother, you like a feng shui master."
