CHAPTER XXVI
The sun hung obliquely in the sky, with afterglow, wantonly radiating the temperature.
The clouds in the west had already burned, fiery red, like flames rising in the sky, reflecting the whole sky in a vivid crimson.
An elevated long bridge, which extends from nowhere, and does not know where to go, shuttles between the mountains and ravines like a long dragon.
The silver-white and hard long dragon made of cement and steel bars is fierce and domineering, crossing the mountains when encountering the mountains, treading water when encountering water, and flying overhead over the abyss valleys and ravines, and I don't know how many thousands of miles I have gone!
Thousands of years ago, where could people imagine the greatness of manpower and the grandeur of human deeds today?!
This is a tourist highway around Hunan Province.
It is said that it is expected to be completed this year.
In fact, last year it was said that it was expected to be completed, but this year, it is only the piers and the bridge deck that have been paved, and the real details have not yet begun -- the high-speed bridge pavement is still full of potholes, and where the two roads meet, there are still uneven steel wires and iron tendons.
And this year, most of the time has passed, and it seems that there is no plan to start construction.
People who know the situation say that this year will definitely not be completed, and see how next year goes. However, I heard that there will be people from above who will come down to inspect this year, and maybe it will be completed.
The completion of the expressway is just a talking point for people in the nearby town of Qingshan.
However, the unbuilt tourist highway is an excellent place for cultural and sports activities and climbing high and looking into the distance.
It is conceivable that between the two mountains of several hundred meters, a high bridge flies by, on both sides are the mountain wind and mountain scenery, the bottom is the murmuring water, the head is the breeze and the sun, the eyes are open and bright, and the mind is suddenly opened a lot.
Mountaineering, perhaps because of the ruggedness of the mountain road, is inevitably difficult.
But on this high bridge, it is really good to be able to enjoy the brightness of the "Thousand Miles" and blow the mountain breeze and walk straight and smooth.
So, those who danced the square, those who broke danced, those who paraded through the streets, those who lounged, those who ate supper and drank wine, all arrived on the bridge.
Walking along the bridge for a few miles and back is a great way to exercise and broaden your horizons!
Originally, there was no small ten-mile road along the mountain road to the intersection of the cave, but the two hills were pierced by the high bridge, and the road of less than three or four miles was from Qingshan Town to the intersection of the cave.
Zhou Yi's second aunt, Zhou Ning, together with a few old friends and wives, walked all the way along the bridge, and unconsciously arrived at the entrance to the cave.
"Huh—how did you get to the entrance of our old house?" Zhou Ning said in surprise.
The road was already close to most of the cave tunnels, and because a few people were talking while walking, they didn't feel the passage of time, and before they knew it, they walked out for several miles.
It is said that it is several miles, but it is only a kilometer or two of them.
When the viaduct arrived, it could no longer be said to be a bridge, and it went flat along the road, almost to the apex of a ramp, and then went further, and then passed a trough, through a tunnel of a black hole, and I don't know where it was going.
"I heard that your family Zhou Yi is raising chickens in the old house, so this is it." A fashionable and skinny middle-aged woman with long red hair next to her said. Although this woman is well maintained, her slightly dull skin and crow's feet at the corners of her eyes all reveal her true age.
"He doesn't have chickens now, he grows peaches, and it seems that he also grows some grapes." The second aunt explained, "You don't know, Zhou Yi of our family will enjoy it, and in that mountain, he cleaned it up so beautifully!" I heard that the peaches that grow are sold for 20 yuan each! ”
"Twenty dollars a piece?" Another round-faced woman, about forty years old, was suspicious. She still has something to say in her heart: Twenty yuan a piece, who will buy it? It's not really stupid to farm the land!
The round-faced woman was short and plump, and her whole body, including her face, was not round, and she often had a smile on her face, which made her look quite joyful.
The second aunt of the Zhou family heard what the other party meant, and she was not angry, but said: "You don't know, last year, his peaches were sold for ten yuan each, and they were all robbed." This year's peaches are even bigger and better than last year, what's so unusual about selling them for twenty yuan? Those peaches outside are so unpalatable that they look good, and they dare to sell them for dozens of yuan a catty! ”
She was talking about the outside, that is, outside the mountains, the developed cities.
When the dark-red-haired woman heard Zhou Ning's words, she seemed to remember something, and said, "Is it the peaches that were sold last autumn?" Someone else gave me one, and it tasted ......," she slurped, as if she had an aftertaste.
"Well, last year's that was sold by our family Zhou Yi." There was a pride in the words that even she hadn't noticed. When I heard that Zhou Yi came back to farm, everyone was taken aback, who would have thought that this college student could even grow a flower in farming?
The round-faced woman said curiously: "The peach in autumn - could he still build a greenhouse?" ”
Greenhouse is not a strange thing in modern times, but in such a southern mountainous area, very few people build sheds. After all, the winter is not very cold, so there is no need for it.
"No! I don't know how he did it. You see, although he is also a college student at a prestigious university, he is not a major in agriculture and forestry, and he has never farmed before, so why did he grow so many good things? ”
"I think he must have gotten some new technology to come back to farming...... the red-haired woman guessed.
Zhou Ning and the round-faced woman listened and nodded in agreement—maybe that's really the case......
While talking, the three of them continued to go into the mountain, and after walking for a short time, a roar sounded, the water vapor was wanton, and the summer heat was dissipated at once, and they were refreshed!
What is it that you see in front of you, isn't it the silver waterfall that plummets down hundreds of meters?
Continue to go up along the paved ramp, pass through the cold hole, the mountains and ravines immediately rush to come, and the thousands of acres of flat lakes are flat and flat in the field of vision.
On the shore of Pinghu Lake, a piece of greenery spreads out, and it is a hundred-acre orchard opened up by Zhouyi.
The red-haired woman pointed to the dozens of acres of low fruit groves where green clouds rose on top of each other, and said strangely, "What kind of tree is this?" How does it look a bit like a thorn grape on the mountain. ”
"It's thorn grapes! I don't know how Zhou Yi cultivated it, so it grew into a tree, and I heard that it saved the trouble of setting up a net. ”
"It's not going to be a new breed. I've never seen a vine like this in all my years here. The round-faced woman wondered.
The three of them continued to talk, and the fruit grove gradually fell into front of them.
"Oh - this grass grows so beautiful! It's so neat, it won't be planted on purpose! The sharp-faced woman exclaimed at the sight of the mongrel (fourth voice) of the pasture.
There is a lot of grass in the mountains, but it is rare to see such a green, green and tender, neat grass, not to mention the embellishment of the purple top flower?
"I heard what kind of pasture grass it is, raising cattle and sheep!"
Speaking of cattle and sheep, a herd of horned sheep, like deer, jumped out from behind a tree and disappeared into the depths of the grass and woods in a blink of an eye.
"Oh - did you see it just now, that sheep jumped high!" The round-faced woman was startled.
The three of them continued to move forward, and the peach forest with pink and tender plump peaches was displayed in front of several people.
"Oh, this peach grows so well!" The round-faced woman continued her exclamation.
The red-haired woman also chimed in.
Zhou Ning's eyes were full of smiles.
She treats Zhou Yi as her own child; Now that Zhou Yi's achievements are so praised by others, I am also honored in my heart.
"Twenty dollars a peach, how expensive! Why don't we pick a few of them secretly—" suggested the red-haired woman with a childlike smile in her eyes.
"Want, want." The round-faced woman was also happy to meet.
Zhou Ning also smiled and agreed.
Because they knew each other, she knew that it was just a joke, and it was impossible for a few people to really steal Zhou Yi's peach.
She is not a generous person, she usually eats with the careful calculation of traditional women, and she is even more distressed about children's things, if she really takes people away like this, she will not be willing.
A peach of ten or twenty yuan a piece is not something else worthless.
The three of them said okay, and they just sneaked into the woods.
Before I entered the peach forest, I had just crossed the canal, and I only heard a few strong winds, and the whole grass was blown to pieces, and a huge black shadow fell from the sky!
It's a huge.
A few people have seen the largest chicken, that is, the farmer has been raising it for a few years, but it is only a pound - the size of such a rooster is also extremely large.
But where did this majestic, multicolored rooster in front of me come from?!
The rooster didn't make any other movements, just stood in place, his two bright eyes staring straight at the three people in front of him, staring at the three people's hair standing upside down, and the cold in their hearts was slightly raw, and they didn't dare to move.
A hoarse and bright cry came, and three big geese, half a head taller than the big rooster, fluttered their wings, pounced out of the haystack and ditch, and pounced in front of several people, just surrounding the three of them, and also stretched their necks to the sky and screamed wildly.
In the forest, dozens of sheep of different sizes emerged out of nowhere.
These sheep are artificially numbered.
They came out of the woods, looked curiously in this direction, and slowly looked around, just like people watching the excitement.
More and more sheep came around, and the cows also came, "moo-moo-" and looked at the three of them a few times, and then lowered their heads to eat a few mouthfuls of grass, and looked at them a few more times......
More big animals and small animals surrounded them, and it was not good for the three of them to enter or retreat.
"Zhou Yi! Zhou Yi! Come and help! The three of them looked at the hundreds of animals in front of them, and their hearts were furious, and they shouted loudly.
"Wang-Wang-" A dog barked out, and three dogs, one black, one flower, and one yellow, rushed like a gust of wind.
When a hundred or so animals saw the three dogs rushing towards them, they immediately separated the two sides and left a passage for the three dogs to walk.
The three dogs ran to the three of them, and the three pairs of eyes looked at the three people in front of them.
"Little Black, Little Yellow, Little Flower, do you remember me?" Zhou Ningshi looked at the three Wangs with a "flattering" expression.
The three dogs looked at the person in front of them, as if they were somewhat familiar, and their noses moved lightly a few times, and they smelled a familiar smell.
Zhou Xiaohei rushed back again.
Zhou Xiaohuang screamed at the beasts, and no one could hear what he was saying, but the meaning was already very clear - whether it was "cluck" or "quack" or "baa", they all disappeared into the forest and continued to play, only occasionally, turning their heads and glancing curiously at this side.
