To be honest, having never been to the mountain villages of southern Qin, Lin Fan really couldn't understand that there were still such poor places in this country.

Seeing many middle-aged women who described themselves as withered and used backpacks to carry vegetables and grains down from the mountain with difficulty, Rao is already sweating profusely Xu Huaiyuan, who was panting, was also embarrassed to cry tired.

The dilapidated houses scattered halfway up the mountain, the sheep bleating at the door, and the old man with gray hair and a pipe on his back reminded Lin Fan of his home when he was a child.

He had always thought that his family was poor enough before, but he really didn't expect that there would be so many more difficult people.

"If the children in the mountains can't go to school, I'm afraid they will be trapped in the mountains for the rest of their lives." Huang Guoan couldn't help but sigh.

Wang Xin looked at Lao Dao with deep reverence in his eyes: "Fortunately, with the funding of a well-wisher like Uncle Huang, many children can continue to go to school." ”

Wang Peng said: "Even so, there are still many children who can't afford to go to school, there is a child in my hometown village who should be in junior high school, his father is working outside, his mother is too poor and runs away, and he follows his grandmother alone, if it is not for the help of the villagers, I am afraid that I will not be able to eat." ”

Wang Xin nodded: "Yes, that is, in my class, more than half of the children have to go over mountains and mountains to go to school, and the farthest child comes to school every weekend, and has to walk for a whole day and a night. ”

The panting fat man listened sadly: "I think this trip is profitable whether or not we can find a theme, at least we have to let the society know that there are still so many children who can't afford to go to school and even have difficulty in food and clothing." ”

Tong Yun carried the camera on his back and said with red eyes: "I want to donate all my salary this year, so I can help a little." ”

The fat man nodded painfully: "Me too." ”

Then, the two looked at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was a little embarrassed by them: "I'll donate five million." ”

Wang Xin and Wang Peng, who were hurrying, both stopped, and under the puzzled eyes of Lin Fan and the others, the couple bowed deeply to several people at the same time: "No matter what, we have to thank you for these children." ”

Lin Fan felt a little awkward in his heart, and he didn't know if it was sad or what.

Hu Yan'er stood on Lin Fan's shoulder, her eyes flickering, not knowing what she was thinking.

After walking for nearly three hours, Xu Huaiyuan's body was already sweating as if it had been blistered, and everyone finally arrived at their destination, a place called "Hongyun Town".

It is said to be a town, but it is actually inferior to some villages.

One street, a total of more than 30 houses, is distributed on this relatively flat mountainside.

There was not a single car to be seen on the street, and even outside the tiled house with the town government sign, there was only an electric bicycle parked with paint off.

It was market time that made the town a lot more lively, and some vendors pushing carts to sell things had lined up outside the streets.

Looking at the telephone poles standing like lonely warriors on the mountainside, from far to near, Wang Xin said: "This place was only connected to electricity the year before last, and there was no electricity before. ”

There were many people on the street, all of whom looked at Lin Fan and his party with interest, and their eyes stayed on Huang Guoan and Hu Yan'er the most.

"What is that Taoist priest doing here, is he catching that monster from Hongyun Middle School?"

"That's a fox, what a pretty fox!"

Hu Yan'er listened proudly, and felt that these villagers were much cuter than those citizens, not only distinguishing their identities at a glance, but also feeling beautiful with a very good eye.

But it soon realized that it was not a good thing to be praised by these people.

"Such a beautiful fox skin, it must be able to sell for a lot of money if you peel it off, right?"

"Nonsense, you see how clean the man is, he must be from the city, and the fox must be someone's pet, so he won't skin and sell it."

"What a pity, such a beautiful fox skin."

"We can't guess what the people in the city think, it's better to have a fox than a big yellow dog, and you can't watch the door."

……

Lin Fan wanted to laugh when he heard it, but he was afraid that Hu Yan'er would make a move on these two people.

What finally relieved him was that Hu Yan'er was defeated and lay on his shoulder, snorting disdainfully: "A group of uninformed hillbillies! ”

Although the town is small, it has a lot of organs.

Of course, don't think about the game hall Internet café or the like, and the mobile phone is relatively scrapped, but there is still a place to eat.

Along the way, the people who had almost consumed the meals in the county found a small restaurant to fill their stomachs.

Then, everyone began to walk towards their final destination, which was actually Hongyun Middle School, which was only a kilometer away from the center of the town.

The middle school was small, with only seven houses in total, and a red flag fluttered lonely in the wind.

Principal Wang Jianguo warmly shook hands with everyone one by one, and then explained: "In the past, there were only two earthen houses here, one for classes and the other for teachers' offices. ”

"With Mr. Huang's funding, we have built seven houses, three classrooms, an office, a cafeteria, and two dormitories for teachers and students."

"The children's desks, chairs, and blackboards are all new, the two young teachers who came to teach and some students who are far away have houses to live in, there are hot dishes in the canteen every day, and now the state also supplies some milk to the school for free, the children's lives are much better, and some people are willing to send their children to school.

Looking at this middle-aged man who did not look like a teacher, but was a little like an old farmer, said with a smile in non-standard Mandarin, especially when the sentence "I can always save some food", everyone felt like they were poked into tears.

Tong Yun quickly pressed the camera shutter to photograph the middle school principal wearing patched shoes, and then she turned to greet the curious and frightened students to take pictures and interviews.

The fat man didn't know where to take out a piece of chocolate and handed it to a skinny girl with a cowardly expression.

Looking at the girl carefully licking the chocolate and the innocent smile on her face, Xu Huaiyuan couldn't help but turn her head away, and Tong Yun recorded this scene with a camera.

After a brief exchange of words, Huang Guoan, Lin Fan and others were invited into the office by the principal, and Tong Yun turned on the recorder, intending to record the supernatural events in the other party's mouth.

"Probably from last week, the chickens and sheep raised by nearby villagers were thrown from time to time, and then some people said that the wild wolves might have eaten secretly, but everyone caught them several times but didn't catch ......"

"The day before yesterday, our chef Xiao Zheng found that a large piece of pork specially prepared in the school cafeteria was lost, and I thought it was a student who stole it and taught a few naughty students a lesson," Wang Jianguo said embarrassedly, "A student I taught said that a savage did it." ”

"You know, there are a lot of legends in our Qinba Mountain, but no one knows whether it's true or not, I thought that kid was lying to me, and he let him get out of the way after a few beatings......"

"About the middle of the night the day before yesterday, Xiao Zheng and a few volunteer teachers ran to my house together, saying that there were really wild people stealing things to eat, and a teacher filmed them with his mobile phone." Saying that, Wang Jianguo took out an old-fashioned flip phone, "I asked him to send the video to me, you can take a look." ”

Lin Fan squinted his eyes, the video was a little blurry, but he could indeed see a humanoid creature running at an extremely fast speed.

"After knowing that it was a wild man, I organized more than a dozen nearby villagers to trap live sheep a few times, and finally caught it once, but that guy was so terrible that he not only escaped, but also injured one of us, and the man is still in the hospital." Wang Jianguo said with a frightened face, "And that wild man can also use witchcraft, so that the big tree can attack people!" ”

Lin Fan and Huang Guoan glanced at each other, and they both saw a little solemnity in each other's eyes.

It's just that Lin Fan is not very worried, because at present, it seems that this "wild man" is not hostile to humans, otherwise it would not be as simple as just injuring a few people.

[PS: There are actually real cases about the students in the mountains. My elder sister teaches in a middle school near a small county town in southern Shaanxi, and the examples cited in it are actually real things that happened to her students, especially one student's essay, a letter to his father, saying "Dad, don't come back, there is nothing to eat at home", that essay can really poke people's tears. 】
