Chapter Seventy-Eight: Mountain Stream Boulders
The art teacher carried a notebook with her, one of those special art notebooks, and as she listened and talked, I noticed that she had drawn on the paper the place where the ravine and the spring water gushed out of the ravine and spring that I had just mentioned, and she also drew a straight line, which made me wonder if she was an art teacher or a geography teacher.
The art teacher squatted on the ground and asked the old captain, "Do you know where these stones came from?" ”
The old man shook his head and said, "I don't know, when my ancestors came here, these stones were lying in the ravines, not only here, you see, there are also in those ravines. ”
Following the direction of the old man's finger, the art teacher saw that there were also many large stones in the ravine not far from here. The art teacher approached the stones and observed them for a long time, and the texture and level of the stones told her that these stones were a kind of rock, which was five or six thousand years old, at least thousands of years old when exposed to the air.
"These big rocks can make a painting." The art teacher said.
Coming out of the ravine, walking to the top of the mountain, from here to see the old cow village at a glance, the art teacher stood on the top of the mountain and said, "It's so beautiful, the magic of nature." ”
The old captain was very satisfied with the art teacher's word, and he smoked a dry cigarette and said, "This is the place where Shennong's family rested!" ”
The art teacher exclaimed, "Shennong? ”
So the old captain told the legend of Lao Niu Village to the art teacher again, and after speaking, the art teacher asked: "Then do you know where the legendary Shennong clan rests?" ”
The old man pointed to the place where the spring water gushed out and said, "Well, the legend is there, and the Shennong clan drank water there." ”
The art teacher drew the location of the old cow village, the spring, the river, and the surrounding mountains in the notebook.
I said, "Are you sketching?" ”
"To draw a panoramic landscape, you need to draw an overall structural drawing."
"I don't think you're painting, it's like a feng shui master drawing feng shui diagrams."
The art teacher's face changed, "How is it possible, you don't understand art." ”
I laughed and said, "Nervous about what?" ”
"Let's go, it's getting dark, and it's cold at night on the mountain." The old captain led the way, and the art teacher and I went down the mountain one after the other.
Twilight shrouded, the smoke of the old cow village was finished as early as five o'clock in the afternoon, at this moment, the stove of every household in the village burned red, before dark, people walked the streets and alleys, gathered together, played cards, drank wine.
The green smoke from the chimney blended into the night.
At that time, I had an idea to invest in building a building in Laoniu Village and move all the villagers in Laoniu Village to live there.
At this moment, when I saw this scene, I suddenly gave up the previous idea, the building, not as good as the bungalow to live in the ground, now people live and work in peace and contentment, because of a large amount of capital investment, every household has become rich, the red tile and red brick, so that the old cow village is unique, forming a perfect field and village, a little European and American manors, so life, is the life that urban people can't ask for, so what do you want to do with the building?
After returning to the village committee, the kitchen prepared a sumptuous dinner for us, and the art teacher drank a glass of old wine that the old captain had treasured for many years, and she didn't know whether she was drunk by the beauty of the countryside or the wine, her cheeks were crimson, her spirit was bright, and she sang a song for us.
After dinner, the art teacher went to the third floor to rest, and I stayed in the dining room to talk to the old captain about the Spring Festival.
I said that this year is the first year of Laoniu Village, and it is also the first time in thousands of years to carry out development, and now Laoniu Village has changed greatly, so this Spring Festival will have some characteristics.
In the past, because the old cow village was relatively poor, every household only bought a few firecrackers for the New Year, and the firecrackers were finished as soon as they were set off on Chinese New Year's Eve, but this year is different, and the first year has to be a heavy color.
What I mean is that the village committee funded the construction of a stage in a small square, and hired a good troupe to sing from the fifth day of the first month to the fifteenth day of the first month.
Fireworks, fireworks have to pull a car, starting from Chinese New Year's Eve and until the fifteenth day of the first month, fireworks are arranged every day.
That movie also has to be played, although every household now has a TV set, but it is not enough, the elderly in the village are the majority, and they will be happy to show them a few old movies.
In addition, a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was arranged in the auditorium of the village committee, gathering all the villagers who were willing to come and watch the Spring Festival Gala on the big screen together. In fact, there are not many villagers in Laoniu Village, and gathering together to watch the Spring Festival Gala will make everyone's mood a little higher.
There are a lot of activities like this, and the activities are planned, but the matter of this fund makes it difficult for the old captain, Xia Dahai just finished saying that the money invested by investors is not enough, so this is the activity.
I said, there will definitely be a way.
After the discussion, I went up to the third floor, the art teacher's room and mine were separated by two rooms, probably the art teacher had already slept, there was no movement, I tiptoed open the door and went in to find something.
Although the mountain of Laoniu Village is not steep, but it is very difficult to go around that circle, I took the basin to the bathroom to take a shower, the small bedroom of the village committee does not have independent bathing facilities, but set up at the other end of the corridor, the male bath is at the east end, the female bath is at the west end, a bathroom that can only accommodate five people, this bath is set up outside, it is also useful, the purpose is to allow the villagers to come to bathe, it can be regarded as a public welfare facility.
However, the art teacher did not sleep, she stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the lights outside and thinking deeply. There are several beautiful electric lights in the courtyard of the village committee, and street lights have been built on the village roads. From the perspective of the village committee, there is really a feeling of a miniature waterfront town.
The art teacher took a bath, the bedroom she lived in was large, and it could also be used as an office, with a separate bathroom, she sat on a chair wrapped in a bath towel, in front of her, there were several mountain maps of Jiulonggang, she looked at the mountain map of Jiulonggang several times, and found that the rolling mountains of Laoniu Village continued to Jiulonggang, that is to say, this special mountain arrived at Jiulonggang, and the altitude suddenly increased dramatically, why is this? She looked up some postures about the movement of the earth's crust on the Internet, and judged that there was a serious crustal movement here millions of years ago, and the violent movement caused a series of changes in the geological structure here.
But this is all her own inference, there is no geological data to show that there has been a geological movement here in Laoniu Village, even the geological department of Thirty Mile Town has no relevant information, these geological departments have nothing to do every day, they have never studied this thirty-mile town like a large beacon, let alone the special geological structure of Jiulonggang, but later came a lot of geologists, this is because of the development of the resources of Lao Niu Village specially invited geologists, these experts came, The geologists shook their heads, but when the geologists investigated the geology, these staff members went out again, and the geologists investigated wherever they went, and they followed them, as if they were supervising the management, which made people laugh.
The art teacher yawned, only to feel that the waist is also sore and the legs are painful, the mountains of this old cow village do not look high, and they feel more tired than entering Jiulong Gang, and it seems that the gravity here is much greater than other places.
On the bed was a brand-new quilt and brand-new sheets, all of which were kept by the old captain, who was now in charge of the logistics of the village committee, and he registered all the items he received.
In the summer and autumn, there are more people from the village committee, and this logistics director is not easy to do, he has to be responsible for the departure of goods, but also to recycle, and the recovery has to be cleaned and disinfected.
The heating was very hot, and the village committee had a person who specialized in burning boilers, and the old captain instructed him to let him burn the heating hot, so that the dolls could not freeze. The art teacher hung the washed socks on the heater, she got into the bed, reached out and took out a book from the backpack on the table, the name of the book turned out to be "Archaeological Aesthetics".
I played a few mobile games in my room, and before the game was over, I fell asleep.
