The small restaurant they went to was small, with only a few tables and four stools in front of the counter.

The smell of various foods fills the air, mixed with the aroma of fried rice and bolognese.

The two old men looked up with interest as they sat down.

It's surprising to see unfamiliar faces in the county.

They are in the middle of nowhere, and there are hardly any people who come.

A skinny woman of unknown age approached her.

"What are you going to eat? We have paper-wrapped chicken, vinegared blood duck, as well as all kinds of stir-fried vegetables and rice! ”

There is obviously no menu here, Su Qing looked at Han Shaocheng suspiciously, she didn't know what to eat.

A place I've never been to in my life.

Just a concept on a map.

"I want two green vegetables, a scrambled egg with chili, a shredded potato, four bowls of rice, and nothing else."

Fan Xiaobin's people spoke first.

The woman glanced at it dissatisfied, and the four of them ate such a little bit, and they were all vegetarian dishes.

Han Shaocheng and Fan Xiaobin both look at their own people.

The man sneered, scratched his head, glanced at the waiter who was already far away, and explained in a low voice.

"I'm afraid you won't get used to it, I have a friend here, and it is said that the food here has a very strange taste, and ordinary people are not used to eating it."

"What's the weird smell?"

Su Qing was puzzled.

"It's said to be a stinky smell, and people here like to eat things like sour bamboo shoots, but we don't seem to be used to eating them."

The three of them suddenly realized.

Su Qing knew about sour bamboo shoots.

Actually, it can't be said to be stinky.

But ordinary people really can't get used to it.

"You're outsiders, aren't you? Coming here this weather? Touristy? Or a string of relatives? ”

An old man at the next table asked enthusiastically.

There is kindness in the eyebrows and eyes, but such enthusiasm is really rare.

Fan Xiaobin paused, "Old man, we are here to string relatives, it's not dark, just rest here, and leave tomorrow." ”

The people here are really simple.

Keep open doors.

"String relatives? So where are you going? The road we walk to the village here is not easy to walk, some villages are steep mountain roads, cars can not go up, if you don't have an acquaintance to lead the way, you will definitely not be able to go up, it is better to let your relatives come to the county seat to meet. ”

All four were taken aback.

They thought about all kinds of problems, and they really didn't expect this place to be so poor.

No way?

Over the mountains?

The corners of Su Qing's mouth twitched, and she glanced at Fan Xiaobin.

What about you! A detective who is also known as a powerful investigator, is so powerful?

Fan Xiaobin was glanced at by Su Qing! It's going to be hairy to watch.

The hell knew it was going to be a problem here.

But can he say that he thought it was a simple matter, and didn't put in any effort at all?

That's not a slap in the mouth.

"Old man, is Jiuxian Village in Chaoyang Township easy to walk? The old man shows me the way! We really don't know. ”

Fan Xiaobin took out the cigarette in his pocket, the filter of China.

When you're out and about, you're sure to hand a cigarette or something.

The old man took it and looked at it carefully, with a shrewd smile on his face.

"Yo, young man, it's coming! At first glance, you are a social person who travels south and north, you really asked, my kid is from Jiuxian Village, their village is still a mountain road away from the road, and you have to walk thirty miles of mountain road when you get out of the car.

It's not easy to go up the mountain, so you have to be well prepared. Otherwise, if you can't get to the village, you'll be exhausted. ”

The old man slowly put the cigarette under his nose and sniffed it.

His expression was full of satisfaction, and he was reluctant to smoke, so he put the cigarette roll on his ear.

His eyes kept staring at the cigarette case in Fan Xiaobin's hand.

That's pretty obvious.

Fan Xiaobin smiled and handed over another one.

"Old man, thanks to you telling us, otherwise I really don't know. This wine fairy village is immortal enough, and the mountain can ask for immortals. ”

Playing haha.

"Young man, who are your relatives? My family is from Jiuxian Village, maybe I still know each other. ”

This time, the old man lit a cigarette for himself by Fan Xiaobin and took a deep breath.

Spit out a series of smoke rings.

Squinted eyes, dim eyes staring at them.

Especially when passing by Su Qing, I took a turn.

Su Qing was a little irritable inexplicably.

What does this mean, old man?

"Ah, our relatives are surnamed Li, Li Mei and Wang Jianxin, and they told us that they were in this place, and they didn't say anything else."

Fan Xiaobin made up, thinking about it, hoping that the old man would be dizzy and dizzy, and his brain would not be good.

Otherwise, it's really hard to fool.

"Li Mei? Wang Jianxin? There are still these two people in our village? Could it be that it is the younger generation? I don't remember the names of those young people, alas, they are old and confused. ”

Fan Xiaobin smiled, "Uncle, how is the village?" You have lived all your life, how is the village now? ”

Su Qing blinked.

Fan Xiaobin is quite good at coming to things, and in the blink of an eye, everyone has talked to the uncle.

Even the situation in the village is inquiring.

"O village, poor! There has been little change over the years, our village is in the mountains, it is difficult to get rich, and the road cannot be repaired, this place is connected to several mountains, and the road is not easy to walk, even if the government wants to build the road.

I don't have the money or the energy, so in addition to being poor, I am still poor, and the young people in the village have already come out, and they are all working outside, and there are some old, weak, sick and disabled people left in the village. ”

Sighing, the old man's expression was bitter.

They were also speechless.

In this situation, they could not help others, and even the words of comfort became very pale.

"Okay, okay, you guys hurry up and eat, don't listen to my old man babbling here, what I'm talking about, that's all before. Many of today's young people have returned to the village. The main reason is that life is not easy in the city outside, they have no culture, no ability, and no craftsmanship, and it is easy to be deceived when they get to the city, so some of the young people who have been deceived have broken their heads and bleed, so they will obediently go back to the village. ”

The old man said to himself, his eyes were full of yearning for the village.

It can be seen that the old man still has feelings for the village.

The four of them ate and stopped talking.

They can't help with this kind of thing, but the only information they get is that this Jiuxian Village is probably really poor and has a long way to go.

A meal is barely eating.

Su Qing really has no appetite, and the experience of the past few days has made people discouraged and desperate.

It was really hard for her to imagine what would happen to Zhao Xin.

Why did Li Mei take Zhao Xin to such a remote village?

I'm afraid the answer to this question can only be known when I see Li Mei, even if this village is poor and someone wants a child, but a ten-year-old child. This is not realistic.

The village is so poor, is it possible that there is still money to buy children?

If she can't figure it out, she doesn't want to, these questions are haunted in her mind, and it is even more difficult to swallow when eating.

Besides, the food really doesn't taste good.

When Han Shaocheng was full and leaned back, Su Qing also put down his chopsticks.

He looked meaningfully at her bowl, as if calculating how much she had eaten, but thankfully he hadn't forced her.
