The days passed quickly, I was out of the limelight, and the matter passed quickly.

School,There's a lot going on every day.,Who fell in love with whom?,Who skipped class and went out to play games was caught by the principal.,In the long school life,,Things that can be used as talking points one after another.,The time limit is extraordinary.。

Soon, summer vacation came.

This is almost the first time I have spent the summer vacation alone in so many years, because He Yunhu is gone.

There are usually two old people at home in our family, so there is no TV, only a radio, the third master listens from morning to night, from the weather forecast to Peking Opera, and now he can even hum a couple of sentences.

But for me, it's not that interesting.

Grandma was probably afraid that I would be bored, so she greeted my peers in the village, most of whom did not go to school, because the family felt that even if they went to school anyway, they would still have to go home to farm, hunt, get married, and have children, so if the ending was the same, no one cared what the process was.

In addition, it costs money to go to school, but the children can stay at home and help with the work.

So, I was almost the only poor kid in the school.

The two playmates my grandmother found for me were both two years younger than me, cousins, the eldest was named Hu Xiaoyu, and the younger was called Hu Ning.

Needless to say, most people in the village do not have TVs at home, one is because of the power supply problem, the place is too remote, if you encounter any high-power electrical appliances, you can't bring them up at all.

Second, because the family has no money, it is already very satisfying to meet the usual food and clothing, and watching TV is too luxurious.

So even with two playmates, the three of us most of the time just sit together and brag and play backgammon, and it doesn't take long for us to get bored.

But suddenly, Hu Xiaoyu came to me and asked me if I was the third master's apprentice.

I don't know if I should say yes or no, because I am and I am not.

Before I could answer, Hu Ning said, I heard that there have been treasures on the mountain recently, it seems to be some kind of herb, and the people in the village go up the mountain to dig herbs, and then someone in the city will regularly come to collect them, and the price is not low, if we also dig it, I can take them around the city after making money.

I didn't believe it, I said, since everyone knows that there are herbs in the mountains, then why buy your ones at a high price, they can go in and dig them themselves!

But Hu Xiaoyu said that the mountain is a well-known barren mountain in our village, and almost no one usually goes up to it, so there is no road in the mountain, that is, their own people have the courage to go up the mountain, and if they go up, they will definitely get lost in the forest.

Hu Ning said that he had gone up with his family once before, and when the herbs were picked, he didn't even pick the soil on the roots, so he said that a pound could be sold for hundreds of yuan.

At that time, a few hundred yuan, no matter who it was, was a huge amount of money, I suddenly became interested, and said that since Hu Ning had already gone up once, and came down safely, then he must have known the road, we are all locals, even if we get lost, we can also find a fellow to take us down.

We made an appointment, and the next day we went up the mountain without telling our family.

I don't know if grandma and the third master know about this, but both of them are old, and the physical work of going up the mountain can't trouble them anymore, and besides, the third master even took out the coffin book in order to provide for me to go to school, and I can't let them suffer for me anymore.

I don't know if we left early, there was no one on the road, Junin walked to the bottom of the mountain and found a tree, and the bark on it was peeled off, which was the mark Junin made last time.

Hu Xiaoyu found a few branches to explain and handed them to us, saying that this thing can help us support our bodies, and we won't be tired when the time comes.

The mountains are full of weeds, there is really no path to walk, I see that there is still the kind of grass that pulls people's flesh, at that time I was glad that I wore a long coat and trousers to avoid mosquitoes, and I still did not give up and put my pants into my socks.

However, I was so happy at that time that I actually forgot to ask one thing clearly, that is-what does it have to do with the three of us going up the mountain, and they asked me if I was the apprentice of the third master?

At first, Junin walked in front of us like a tour guide, and kept babbling all the way, saying that this was the place where they had walked, and we didn't need to go again, because the herbs there had been uprooted by them, and when I looked over, I found several dirt pits, and sure enough, there were traces of weeds.

When I was a child, I farmed with my grandmother, and every time I went to the field with my grandmother to pull weeds in the summer, I knew a little bit about it.

After taking a few steps further, Junin let out a cry of surprise, he pointed to a piece of grass on the ground, and said, look, this is this grass, there is no trace of digging grass here, it seems that no one has come here yet!

After saying that, Hu Ning used both hands, pulled out the herb, and handed it to us to see, but before he could see it clearly, he took it back and put it in his basket as if we had snatched it enough.

I don't know why, Hu Ning was happy next to him, but Hu Xiaoyu seemed to be preoccupied, several times, I saw him want to reach out to stop Hu Ning, but when I saw Hu Ning's elated appearance, I only frowned, forget it.

I wanted to ask, but I didn't know where to start, after Hu Ning told us what the herbs looked like, the three of us divided into three ways and began to find our own targets.

Because of my good eyes, I found more than them, but not much, after all, this place has already been picked once, and I am very lucky to find such a place where no one has ever been, and it is not a herb field, and I can find a few of them.

Of course, I am also calculating in my heart, if the placket can be sold for a few hundred yuan, it is actually less than a catty, and I can also collect one hundred and eighty yuan, at that time, this money is enough for me to go to the city to have a good look.

I don't know how long later, Hu Xiaoyu and I unconsciously got together, Hu Xiaoyu seemed to be a little avoiding Hu Ning, he carefully covered his mouth with his hand, leaned on my ear and said, you be careful, I heard the adults in the family say, this area is not for no reason, I heard that this was originally a cemetery, but later, the landslide, so those graves were buried.

Listening to Hu Xiaoyu say this, I finally understood the reason why Hu Ning was looking for me.

Originally, compared to the relationship between Hu Ning and Hu Xiaoyu, I am just an outsider, if there are so many herbs, it is always more important for two people to share than for three.

It turned out that Hu Ning took a fancy to my identity as the third master's apprentice.
