After Graphite was done, he went over to sit with the fat man, and the fat man wanted to smoke for him again, Graphite shook his hand and refused, and said with a smile: "Prepare to quit, don't seduce me in the future." ”

The fat man looked at him with the eyes of a monster, and then lit a cigarette by himself, and deliberately squinted his eyes to look very enjoyable, and said with a smile: "I said brother, smoke more and enjoy it, it's okay to quit smoking." ”

Ye Tianyu said on the side: "Fatty, in fact, you should have quit smoking a long time ago, your rotten teeth are all caused by smoking, I advise you to quit early." ”

The fat man said casually: "It's okay, so many people are fine to smoke, it's a big deal to fill their teeth again." He turned to graphite and said: "Graphite, you don't know yet, this guy is a dentist, you can find him if you have dental problems in the future, this guy runs his own dental clinic." ”

Graphite asked, "Is it in Summer Harbor?" What clinic? ”

"Nine Degrees Dental." Ye Tianyu replied lightly.

"Oh, I've heard that there seem to be multiple branches, you chain them, right?"

"Three generations of their family have been dentists, and they should be a little famous in your summer port, seven or eight chain stores." The fat man said.

"Yes, I've heard of it, and I'll come to you if I have a tooth problem in the future, Dr. Ye." Graphite said with a smile.

"Okay, you can find me in terms of teeth." Ye Tianyu is also refreshing, invisibly revealing a kind of pride in the professional field.

"By the way, I see that you have a good hand at bone grafting, have you studied before?" Ye Tianyu asked suddenly.

"I haven't learned, I have a little experience with my feet before, so I happened to help them yesterday."

"You are powerful and bold, so you are not afraid of curing other little girls." Ye Tianyu heard graphite say that he hadn't learned, so he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"He's called the starving and cowardly to death, you see how grateful the little girl is to him, haha." The fat man laughed and began to be not serious again.

Graphite and Ye Tianyu glanced at each other, and Ye Tianyu smiled: "This guy is always like this, not serious." ”

……

A few people, led by Graphite, set off again and began to climb upwards.

"The road ahead will be steeper than the previous one, so you have to be careful, and you'd rather slow down than be reckless." Graphite explained as he walked.

Everyone has a bamboo cane in their hands, which plays a great role at this time, sometimes used to support, sometimes used to drag people to each other, several people take care of each other, and strive to climb all the way.

On the way, if there are dead branches and rotten trees blocking the road, the graphite will be removed in advance, and if there are some dangerous and difficult places, he will stop and carefully explain and remind the people behind.

I was careful all the way, and I climbed up for about two hours.

Standing on a rock, graphite leaned on a low tree beside him, and pointed to a place not far above, where there was a faint dilapidated Taoist temple, and he said loudly to a few people behind: "See, I have heard from the people in the village before that there is a Taoist temple here, and it will not be far from the top of this Taoist temple, at most it will be half an hour away, everyone come on!" We're almost there. ”

Several people found a place to stand still, and looked up together.

"Brother Shi, is there a Taoist priest in the Taoist temple?" Lan Ke'er was curious.

"I heard that there is not, but there is a larger Taoist temple at the foot of this mountain, and there are Taoist priests there, and now there are no Taoist monks who practiced asceticism like before, and it is really inconvenient to go up and down here." Graphite explained.

……

He only stayed for a moment, and then began to climb again.

Soon arrived at the Taoist temple, stayed in front of the temple for a while, sure enough, as graphite just said, the temple has been old and dilapidated, cobwebs are coiled everywhere, and there is only one temple, the size is about ten ordinary, even so, it is not easy for the predecessors to build such a Taoist temple in this place.

Walking inside, there is a blurred statue in the middle, with some mottled paint on the body, like an overturned oil painting bucket splashed, but the facial features of the god are still vaguely recognizable, thinking that he is going to stay here alone at night, graphite carefully observes it around, there is a place to shelter from the wind and rain, and there is even hay in a corner of the door, which may have been left by a traveler who had stayed here before.

Graphite extended the release of his senses, and looked around, mainly to see if there were any dirty things such as snakes, insects, and rat nests around him, and he didn't pay much attention to the rest, he was a pure materialist, and he had never believed in the theory of gods and ghosts.

Nothing else was found except for a few spiders.

"Brother Shi, aren't you afraid to live here alone at night?" Lan Ke'er looked around, thinking that Graphite was going to spend the night here alone, and couldn't help but be afraid for him, if it was her, she wouldn't dare to spend the night here alone even if she was killed.

"What are you afraid of, I think it's pretty good here." Graphite laughed.

"Let's go, let's go to the top, I see the weather is good, let's go see the sunset, I heard it's spectacular."

Graphite knocked on the bamboo cane, and led the way in front, and several people followed him around the Taoist temple, and there was a sheep intestine path on the side that led to the peak.

……

A few people came out of the dwarf bushes, and their eyes suddenly opened up, and finally reached the peak of Jinyan Mountain.

There is a large open space at the top of the peak, and at a glance you can see many traces of the activities of the travelers, the ashes of the campfire, the dead branches, the rocks, and even some plastic bags.

Standing on the top of the peak, looking around, the surrounding mountains are creeping and vast.

The feeling of "being at the top and seeing the mountains at a glance" arose spontaneously in the hearts of several people.

"That's it! Let's set up camp while it's still dark! Graphite was the first to break the silence.

"Spectacular!" Ye Tianyu finally sighed.

"Set up camp! Camp! Brothers, get started. The fat man seemed to forget his fatigue and shouted loudly.

Four tents and three big men, erected in a few clicks, in a half-moon shape in a circle, just facing the bonfire in the middle, and adding another bonfire at night, the scene must be beautiful.

"You pick up the dead branches around you, Tianyu, let's go cut some bigger wood again."

Graphite carried the firewood knife he carried with him, and looked around to see where it was more suitable for felling, the whole Jinyan Peak actually has two sizes, in a long and narrow shape, the big one is where they are camping now, the small one is slightly lower in the south, and there are some low shrubs and weeds under the peak.

"Let's go to the south and have a look, there are more bushes over there."

"Let's go."

The two of them greeted each other and walked to the summit to the south.

After finding two shrubs and graphite, he began to cut down the wood, and Ye Tianyu helped collect the chopped firewood on the side.

The sun has begun to sink in the west, the skyline of the vast mountains is covered with golden light, and the afterglow of the setting sun is like gold paper, pasting a layer of golden foil on everything on the top of the Golden Goose Peak.

Return to the camp and put down the chopped firewood. Everyone's faces were more or less filled with happy colors, Lan Keer and Yun Mo were happy to take pictures, Ye Tianyu also joined in after he came back, and the fat man sat lazily on the stone and swallowed the clouds.

Graphite was in the middle of the camp, in the pit where the campfire had been built, and the firewood was set up and the bonfire was raised.

"Get the stuff out, let's boil some water to make coffee."

Seeing the big guys coming around to join in the fun, Graphite said to them, his slightly pale cheeks were smoky, and there was a touch of black ash on them, which he didn't notice himself, but it was very eye-catching when others looked at it.

Lan Keer held up his mobile phone and "clicked" to take two photos for him, and then he couldn't help but "giggle" and laugh, and the others couldn't help but laugh when they saw this, Graphite looked at them blankly, "What?" ”

"Brother Shi, you look so handsome now." Lan Keer deliberately pretended to be obsessed and teased him.

"You have ash on your face." Yun Mo pursed her lips and said with a smile, quickly took out another tissue and handed it to him, comparing it on her face, "Left, here." A pair of eyes looked at him from time to time, she was proud and reserved by nature, and subconsciously turned her head to the side, but she couldn't help but laugh.

Before long, the sky began to darken and the temperature dropped.

The bonfire in the center is very bright and warm at this time, holding warm coffee, around the fire, the flickering flame reflects everyone's face, everyone eats the dry food they brought, tells some stories and interesting stories about the sea and the sky, and the laughter is quickly blown away in the night breeze on the top of the mountain, and breaks out from time to time.

At some point, the moon rose into the sky and passed through the clouds.

Graphite added a large piece of wood to the fire, and the fire swayed with a spark, and soon disappeared in the night wind, a strange feeling quietly floated in his heart, and the place where he sat and watched the reverie in his childhood was now at his feet, with the orange firelight, with the breath of the mountains, with the sound and taste, and imagination without the slightest resemblance and connection, but inexplicably throbbing his soul.

The real and the unreal, the reality and the ideal are intertwined at this moment, like a fire, light and dark.

As soon as his mind moved, he probed his perception to the burning flame, he wanted to find out what the real world was like, and what he "saw" in the flame was a completely different world, the small bonfire seemed to imply a violent fire storm, those large amounts of lignocellulose composed of organic matter, were being swallowed by the flames one by one, and there were many tiny particles mixed with gas in those flickering flames, which were undergoing a violent chemical reaction at this time, turning into smaller particles and molecules, and slowly dissipating in the night wind.

All we can touch is appearances, and the world is far more complex than it seems, Graphite thought to himself.

"Graphite, what are you doing in a daze?" Lan Ke'er, who was sitting on the side, touched him with her hand.

Graphite immediately pulled his perception out of the microcosm, and as soon as he looked up, he saw the clouds on the other side through the flames of the campfire, the flames reflected her cheeks red, and her eyes were staring at him through the flickering flames, shining, as if there were two little fire men dancing in it.

"It's nothing, I just remembered when I was a child...... At that time, I always fantasized about whether there were gods on it. Graphite retracted his gaze and said to Lan Ke'er, and smiled to himself again.

"Do you still want coffee?" Lan Ke'er asked happily with the marching pot in her hand.

"Let's have some." Graphite handed the half-empty cup to Lan Ke'er, who poured him some hot coffee from the marching pot.

Although the night breeze was cold, the few people around the campfire felt warm.
