As soon as I walked to the front of the car, the door was opened from the inside. Chen Youshan did not hesitate, went directly into it, and closed the car door.

The car started and drove away from the campus.

In the car, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes looked at Chen Youshan thoughtfully.

Chen Youshan turned a blind eye and looked ahead expressionlessly.

"You are calm, it has been so many days since the results came out, and you didn't take the initiative to come to me." The middle-aged man retracted his gaze and said nonchalantly.

Chen Youshan smiled absently and didn't speak.

The middle-aged man looked at him with some curiosity: "Aren't you afraid that I will regret it?" Or are you not afraid that I will cheat? ”

"Don't be afraid." Chen Youshan shook his head, "If this matter is shaken out, your son will not be able to escape." The price he has to pay may be even greater, so what do I have to worry about? Your life is worth much more than mine, a man who has nothing, and you will not and dare not joke about it. ”

The middle-aged man unconsciously narrowed the corners of his eyes, and looked at him with an intriguing gaze: "Why are you not afraid of me at all?" ”

"Afraid of you? Why should I be afraid of you? Chen Youshan looked at him and asked, "Just because you are rich?" It's your business that you have money, and I'm not your employee, so why should I be afraid of you? In my eyes, you are no different from other people on the street outside, you are all strangers, you are all two eyes and one nose, why be nervous? ”

The middle-aged man looked at him and asked, "How old are you this year?" ”

"Nineteen."

"Why do you feel like you're in your twenties?"

"Because I am poor, the children of the poor are in charge of the house early, and when they are in charge of the house early, they will naturally grow up faster."

The middle-aged man looked approving, and said, "If you are allowed to go to college, I am afraid you will really be able to become a character in the future." ”

Chen Youshan smiled slightly and did not answer.

"You did well in the exam, and I'm satisfied." The middle-aged man didn't say anything more, and took out an environmental bag from the side, "This is 120,000, and the extra 20,000 is my reward, which can also be said to be compensation for you." ”

Chen Youshan took the bag, then took out two bundles of banknotes from it and returned them: "What I said was 100,000, that is, 100,000." I don't need sympathy, I don't need pity. Stop the car. ”

The car stopped, and Chen Youshan got out of the car straight without even saying hello. Close the car door and turn away, his steps stiff.

The middle-aged man looked at his back through the glass, shook his head with some sympathy, and motioned for the driver to drive.

"Reincarnation is also a technical job."

……

Chen Youshan's home is in a small village more than ten miles away from the county seat, and when he walked to the entrance of the village, he did not enter the village, but walked towards another path, which led to the mountain.

The mountains are rich in resources, there are all kinds of wild herbs, there are also hares, pheasants and wild boars, if you dare to go deep into the mountains, you can also meet black bears, crocodiles and wolves, as for snakes and monkeys, it is nothing new, and the village can occasionally hear the news of monkeys stealing food.

Chen Youshan walked to the depths of the mountain with a very fast pace, and after nearly three hours, he finally came to a mountain peak with pleasant scenery. If someone in the village saw him at this time, they would definitely be surprised, because what he was coming to now was a deep mountain, a deep mountain that was rarely inhabited, a deep mountain that even the experienced hunters in the village would not dare to set foot in.

This is a halfway up the mountain, and the terrain is flat. A small thatched hut is quietly presented there. In front of the hut, there is a boulder, on which sits an old man in a cloth robe.

"Master." Chen Youshan sat down beside the boulder.

Hearing the voice, the old man withdrew his gaze from looking into the distance, and asked without looking back, "Are you done?" ”

"Hmm." Chen Youshan nodded.

"You know what this decision means to you, right?"

"Yes."

"You don't regret it?"

Chen Youshan was silent for a moment and shook his head: "I don't regret it." ”

"Don't repeat either?"

"Nope."

"You're rich now, and repeating is the best option for you."

"It's only 100,000 yuan." Chen Youshan said: "My brother will go to high school in the second half of the year, and the 100,000 yuan can't support the two of us." And this money is unseemly, I can't just take it out. ”

"Then you don't have any books to read."

"No, master, I just can't enter the university campus again, I still have books to read." Chen Youshan said with a smile: "There are many ways to study, and you don't necessarily have to enter the campus. ”

The old man laughed: "When are you leaving?" ”

Chen Youshan scratched his head and said, "The ticket has been bought, and the car will be tomorrow afternoon." ”

"Really going to the capital?"

"Hmm." Chen Youshan nodded, "That's the capital, I want to go and see it, if I can, I'll get a foothold there." ”

The old man glanced at him, took out a broken jade pendant and a letter from his body, handed it over, and said: "Thirty years ago, I accidentally saved a person when I was passing through the capital, and the other party gave me this half of the jade pendant, saying that no matter at any time, as long as there are people in their family, I can take this half of the jade pendant and make an arbitrary request to them. Now thirty years have passed, and I don't know if they are still there. See if you need it, and if you don't, give it back to them. ”

Chen Youshan nodded, took it and put it close to him, his face did not show any surprise at all, obviously he was not surprised by such a thing. The old man in front of him has been playing the world for so many years, and I'm afraid even he doesn't know how many people he has helped.

"Master, where are you going?" Chen Youshan asked.

"I plan to go to Mount Emei first, I haven't been there for some years."

Hearing this name, Chen Youshan suddenly sighed with emotion: "Mount Emei? I don't know how that little junior sister is doing now. ”

The old man glanced at him and quipped, "Why don't you go with me to have a look?" ”

Chen Youshan shook his head: "Forget it, the most important thing for me now is to find a way to rule my own life and find a way to make money, and I will go again when I have time in the future." ”

The old man asked, "What are your plans?" ”

"Not now, let's see it when we get to the capital." Chen Youshan looked at the mountains in the distance and said ambitiously: "Anyway, I can't freeze like this in my life, my life has just begun." ”

The old man nodded lightly with a look of approval.

Next, the pair chatted for more than half an hour, and Chen Youshan gave a big salute to the master very respectfully, and walked down the mountain with red eyes. He knew that if he said goodbye to his master today, he didn't know when he would see each other again.

The old man watched him descend the hill until he disappeared from his sight, then sighed softly, looked back at the hut, and walked in another direction.
