Chapter 72

Xiao Mozhu nodded in agreement, pointed to himself, Du Hanyun, and Xi Ziqian in turn, and said, "The scope of Hongyan Lake is quite wide, and it will take time to turn around the vicinity of the lake, so it's better to act separately, so let's divide into three teams, and I and Hanyun will ...... alone."

"Wait, stop, stop!"

Xi Ziqian suddenly slapped away Xiao Mozhu's fingered hand, and when Xiao and Du, as well as Pu Xueying and Xiaoice next to him, all looked over, and said a little rudely, "Please don't count us three girls this time, and leave the matter of inquiring about 'treasures' to you two men!" ”

"Huh? What do you mean? ”

Du Hanyun and Xiao Mozhu glanced at each other and asked puzzledly.

Xiao Mozhu said that he didn't understand Xi Ziqian's thoughts, and said, "Is there a problem with the team allocation?" Then how do you divide it? ”

Xi Ziqian shook his head, and at the same time took the hands of Pu Xueying and Xiaoice, moved his right foot back a little, his knees bent slightly, and made an "ancient ceremony" to Xiao Mozhu and Du Hanyun, and said mischievously, "I mean, the three of us have to go shopping, swim in the lake and other plays, girls are busy with this and that all day, how tired!" It's up to you, and you two won't disappoint, right? ”

After speaking, Xi Ziqian still blinked her bright eyes, waiting for a reply.

"I'm speechless!" Du Hanyun said dumbfounded.

Xiao Mozhu held his forehead, speechless, who would have thought that Xi Ziqian would suddenly "play with his heart" at this time......

"Brother......

Next to her, Pu Xueying saw that Xiao Mozhu was a little embarrassed, and turned her head to persuade Xi Ziqian, but only said half of the sentence "or us", but Xi Ziqian smiled and interrupted the second half of the sentence......

"Okay, okay, let's play!" Xiao Mozhu sighed and said helplessly.

"Haha, then thank you to the two big officials!" Xi Ziqian said in a good mood.

Xiaoice let go of Xi Ziqian's hand and asked a little uncertainly, "Human beings are so boring, what's so fun about shopping around the lake, I can still fly from this side of the lake to the lake!" ”

Thinking of her life in Zhang Baishan, Pu Xueying showed a sweet smile and said to Xiaoice, "Actually, shopping is quite interesting, and I only learned about it recently." ”

"Oh? Is it? Xiaoice asked suspiciously.

So, in front of Xiao Mozhu and Du Hanyun, Xi Ziqian, Pu Xueying, and Xiaoice disappeared on the road leading from the lake to the commercial street......

"Eh, I feel a little aggrieved." Du Hanyun's shoulders hung weakly, and his voice seemed to be a little tired.

Looking at the magnificent Hongyan Lake and the happy people around him, Xiao Mozhu suddenly felt that his feet were a little heavy, and said, "I'm ...... too"

At this time, the group of people can be said to know nothing about the news of the "treasure", and the location provided by the old man is "near Hongyan Lake", and they don't know how much this "nearby" refers to.

Xiao Mozhu and Du Hanyun finally decided to go their separate ways, from the south shore of Hongyan Lake, one to the west and the other to the east to the north shore of Hongyan Lake, to observe the things worth paying attention to around them, and to ask if there were any "special" things in this scenic spot.

"Hongyan Lake Scenic Area, maybe changing it to 'Hongyan Lake Playground' can attract more tourists!"

Looking at the food stalls and tea houses on the shore of the lake, as well as two-person cruise ships and multi-person yachts, Xiao Mozhu seemed to have returned to the spring outing of primary school, and he actually wanted to join in the fun......

Hurriedly shook his head and shook off the "ridiculous" idea, Xiao Mozhu continued to walk along the lake.

In a spacious dam near the rocky terrain on the eastern shore of the lake, there are casual people sleeping on deck chairs with parasols open, a few children chasing after them with large balls of marshmallows, and in the distance on the lake, there are couples laughing in pedal boats.

Alack......

Alack......

At the edge of the dam, an old man was stepping on the pedal of the marshmallow machine at a uniform speed, and with the sound of the square machine making a blast, a thin white silk was sprinkled out of the heating cavity in the middle, and the old man skillfully "scooped" these sugar threads with a wooden skewer.

In a short time, a new ball of marshmallows was ready, and the old man stood on the shelf next to him.

Looking at the several children chasing on the dam each with a marshmallow, Xiao Mozhu himself also deeply realized that most children like this sweet and greasy snack.

Around the marshmallow machine, there are some other marks on the concrete floor, which look like they were left by the machine in terms of shape.

"Uncle, bring me a string too."

Xiao Mozhu stepped forward and said to the old man who was cleaning the machine.

"Okay." The old man put down the scraper that had collected the remaining sugar shreds, picked up the marshmallow he had just finished, and handed it to Xiao Mozhu.

"Children love this kind of candy, and there are a lot of people who come to the lake here, right?" Xiao Mozhu was paying the money while talking casually.

The old man looked around, and it seemed that there would be no new guests for the time being, so he didn't plan to make another one, so he simply stopped the fire and rested, and said, "Yes, although this Hongyan Lake is not well repaired, there are still a lot of locals who come to visit." ”

Looking at this cheap but large lump of marshmallows, Xiao Mozhu took a bite, and there was immediately a sweet taste in his mouth, and he was about to chew it with his teeth, but he found that the sugar shreds had melted in his mouth.

"It's been a long time since the old man did this, right?" Xiao Mozhu asked again as if inadvertently.

Usually come to buy marshmallows are basically children, even if they are led by parents, they will leave quickly, so there are not many people to chat with, at this moment someone is willing to stop and chat, of course the old man is also very happy.

"Yes, I've been doing this for many years, first selling this on the south shore of the lake, and then those places started to build all kinds of sites, and I moved to the side, and now it's all the way to the east shore of the lake." The old man said with a smile.

Listening to the old man's laughter with a little helplessness, Xiao Mozhu changed the topic and asked, "So, old man, you have been here for many years, so you should know more about the vicinity of Hongyan Lake?" ”

"Haha!" The old man smiled innocently, and then said, "It's okay, from the very beginning I saw that the lake was bare, and even the wooden boats that went to and from the island were hand-cranked wooden boats, to the current big amusement park, I have been watching the changes here!" By the way, you're not a local, boy, are you? ”

Secretly happy, Xiao Mozhu thought that he had asked the right person this time, so he took the opportunity to continue to ask, "I came here to travel from other places, and I don't know if there are any places worth visiting near Hongyan Lake." ”
