After a while, the villagers brought the cart and tools, Yunli and Lin Changqing took the tools and returned to the Buddhist temple again, the villagers were still very taboo here, and the two did not ask them to help, they all stood outside the gatehouse, waiting for the progress of the incident.

The collapsed pit has taken away most of the soil under the roots of the old iron tree, saving them a lot of digging effort, and now the only problem is that the ground around it is still very unstable, and there is a danger of continuing to collapse at any time, so we must find a way to move it out safely, if it falls into the deep pit, it will be a big trouble.

Yun Li thought of a way to make the rope into a looper, just like a herdsman using a livestock sleeve pole, standing in a safe place and throwing the rope out, so that the sleeve buckled the old iron tree, and fastened the main trunk. Three times in this way, the old iron tree was wrapped with three long ropes in the shape of a "D", and the ends of the ropes were fixed to the trunks or large stones around them, but fortunately the villagers brought enough ropes, otherwise this plan would not have been implemented.

The branches and leaves of the old iron tree are very developed, it is not easy to throw the sleeve in the mouth, Lin Changqing made a lot of attempts, and was lucky to hit it once, but he couldn't get it in the back, and finally he left the horse by Yun, and in a few moments he put the other two on the Shun lì, which made Lin Changqing surprised, and laughed that he was not a person from the grassland, and he did this since he was a child.

In order to be safe, Yunli also gave up the risk of digging with a shovel, and instead pulled the rope and used vibration to shake off the remaining soil, so as to pull out the entire old iron tree. Generally speaking, this old iron tree that has grown for an unknown number of years, the development of its roots is unimaginable, and it is impossible to pull it out by manpower. However, due to the loosening and collapse of the ground, this whimsical method of Yunli became possible.

When pulling, you can't rely on brute force alone, not only the effect is not good, but also break the roots, the strength must be uniform and frequent, staggered and rhythmic, the roots and soil are separated a little bit, which is very similar to harvesting potatoes and turning the soil, it is a technical work.

The loosening of the ground was even stricter than expected, and when the two of them pulled to the old iron tree, the ground collapsed several times one after another, but fortunately, they stood far away and were not implicated. After working for a long time, he pulled out the old iron tree, carefully pulled it to a safe area, loaded it with a wheelbarrow, fixed it with a rope, and pushed it back.

The two came out again, causing a commotion among everyone, and they all made way of a passage to let the two pass smoothly. Doing a full set of plays, Lin Changqing helped the car with one hand, held the string of Buddha beads with the other hand, chanted words in his mouth, and said in Mandarin "Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha, the heavenly spirit and the earth spirit, the evil spirit retreats" and the like, nondescript, Yun Li was embarrassed to hear it.

The wheelbarrow is not easy to control, it requires a high balance skill to control it properly, there are farmers in Shanglu Village who use this kind of vehicle, Yunli has also fiddled with it out of curiosity before, it is not a stranger, even if the road is bumpy, Yunli also pushes it well.

Some active children poked their heads out in front of their homes to see what was going on, but they were soon pulled back to the house by the parents, and the little old man and the group of villagers had been following far behind, with different expressions, not knowing whether this was good or bad.

When Yunli and Lin Changqing left the village and moved Lao Tieshu to the open-top tricycle, a large number of villagers still stopped at the entrance of the village to watch, whispering something. After getting this qiē, the two did not leave just like that, Yun Li paid the little old man one hundred and twenty thousand Lao kip in person, that is, one thousand yuan, which was twice as much as the ordinary ones.

In order to reassure the villagers, Lin Changqing also persuaded loudly, saying that the souls of the monks will be surpassed by the Buddha, and the ruins on the mountain are in danger of collapsing at any time.

Everyone seemed to trust him very much, and nodded in agreement, the little old man and the village chief still pulled him and discussed to buy the string of Buddhist beads, Lin Changqing hesitated for a while, and then took it off and gave it to the little old man, without asking him for a penny. With everyone's waving eyes, the two drove out of Guozi Village to return to the town before dark.

"It's not a good thing for them, at least they don't have to worry about some ghost on the mountain, it's a lie, but it's a white lie, right?" Seeing Yun Li's preoccupied appearance, Lin Changqing comforted him.

"That's right, this time it can be so smooth, thanks to your clever calculation, if I were alone, I really wouldn't be able to deal with it." Yun Li was indeed distressed by this, after all, he lied to them, and for whatever purpose, he could not find any justification to push back this dishonest act. Fortunately, the result was good, and after Lin Changqing said this, he was also relieved a lot.

He is not a saint, he cannot follow the dogmas that are considered virtues in everything, this old iron tree is determined to be obtained, if the villagers oppose it, he is likely to take other more extreme actions, no matter what, the result will not be better.

"The old village chief is really slippery, I think he calculated that I don't want money, so he opened his mouth to ask for the Buddha beads." Seeing that his words had an effect, Yun Li's brows soothed a little, and Lin Changqing said with a smile.

"That string of Buddhist beads should be quite valuable, it looks like it's been quite old." Yunli responded.

"It's been more than ten years, when I first started working, my family went to the Buddhist temple to ask for it, and there are monks to open the light, it is some years, it's not worth a few dollars, give it to them as a peace of mind, and when I go back, I will ask for another one." Lin Changqing explained.

Although he said that it was not worth much, Yunli could feel that he was still quite reluctant, and in order to reassure the villagers, he had to endure the pain of parting his love, but he was a lover.

When he returned to the town, it was already late, and with Lin Changqing's sincerity, Yun Li stayed at his house for a night. Lin Changqing's family is in the residential area south of Langbo Street, and he usually does more work in these tourist areas, has his own accumulated channels, and occasionally works as a guide to increase his income, and his life is quite good.

Since they have already married a family, there are only two husbands and wives in the family, and the wife is a dignified and virtuous Laotian girl with a bulging belly and has been pregnant for a few months. After his wife became pregnant, Lin Changqing rarely went to be a guide for others in addition to his daily work, and tried to leave as much time as possible to take care of his wife at home.

The dinner was very rich, Lin Changqing was afraid that Yunli would not be used to eating Lao food, so he specially cooked a few traditional Chinese dishes, which tasted very positive, and with their special conditioning, it had a unique taste. During the banquet, Lin Changqing also solemnly thanked Yun Li again, saying that if he hadn't sacrificed his life to save him in danger, he was afraid that he would not have a chance to come back and see the birth of his first child.

Unexpectedly, he hadn't put this matter down, and Yunli couldn't do anything about him, so he had to repeat what he said before. Lin Changqing was drunk that night, and although Yunli also drank a lot, he didn't feel any discomfort because he had electromagnetic protection.

Looking for the iron tree was unexpectedly smooth, originally he thought that there would be some twists and turns, and deliberately reserved two more days of travel, since Shun Lì completed the task, Yunli was not in a hurry to leave, accompanied by Lin Changqing, he went to the surrounding area to take a tour, and casually saw if there were any plants suitable for cultivation.

After two days of visiting, although there were no new discoveries, he also collected some seeds of local flowers and plants, and planned to plant them after returning to Xiaolu Mountain. As for the old iron tree, Lin Changqing packed the ticket and said that he could just leave it to him, and within a week, he could send the old iron mountain back to Xiaolu Mountain safely.

Their families, neighbors, and even some friends from the motherland are all engaged in this line of logistics work, and they are very active on the border, and they also have their own networks and doorways. Lin Changqing also joked that as long as you can report an address, no matter where you are on the earth, they can deliver it to you.

The vitality of the iron tree is very strong, and there is no need to worry about any bumps in the transportation, so Yunli is very relieved to hand it over to Lin Changqing to do, and when he leaves, he should have given the guide and the cost of transportation together. But they didn't want to live or die, so Yunli had no choice but to give up and tell him that when the child was born, he must write a letter to inform him so that he could prepare a gift for the child.

After leaving Laos, Yunli did not return to Xiaolushan, but returned directly to the welfare home.

I don't know if I don't come back, a few days ago, my aunt was sent to the hospital because she was unwell, but in the past few days, he hasn't received any news, it seems that Aunt Fang doesn't want to worry about her, so she won't let people know. Yun Li couldn't take a break, so he rushed to the hospital without stopping, and when he saw that Aunt Fang was fine, his tense nerves eased.

"You stupid boy, what can Aunt Fang do, I have to go to your graduation ceremony in a few days, it's been four years in a blink of an eye, I didn't go when school started, I can't miss it this time." Aunt Fang leaned on the hospital bed, stroking Yun Li's hand and smiled, her face looked good, but she was a little pale, and the gray hair on her temples seemed to be a lot more than the last time they met.

"Don't go if you're not feeling well, the doctor said you haven't rested enough, you can't go anywhere these days, just lie down and rest." Yun Li frowned, and said bitterly.

"The whole is lying down, how can I not rest enough, when Lily graduated, he also said that I was not in good health, and secretly hid the date, and when I found out, it had been over for several days. This time it's your turn to graduate, I've inquired about the time and place, if you can't go again, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people. Aunt Fang counted her fingers and said with a look of grievance.

"Then you can't go, if you let Lily know that you only go to my graduation ceremony, then can you still show me a good face in the future?" Seeing Aunt Fang's appearance, Yun Li couldn't bear to ask her for anything, so he had to insist on going around the bend.
