Chapter Twenty-Seven: Eyes Open

The people who have been living in the mountains of Dongshan County have been raising chickens to make a living.

Originally, the days were leisurely, without wind and waves, and they were happy. But all changes happen because of the sudden arrival of a person......

It was a rainy night, and the sky was thundering.

The chicken dealers who went up the mountain to order the goods, because this rain could not fall on the mountain.

So, he stayed overnight at the patriarch's house.

In the past, the patriarch did not agree with outsiders to stay overnight, he thought that the people outside the mountain were not ancient, and it would make the people's cognition deviate, so he never let the people contact outsiders.

But today's situation is special, the patriarch looked at the heavy rain, and the chicken dealer drove again, if he got off the car now, it is estimated that something will happen halfway through.

So the patriarch let the chicken dealer stay.

He told the chicken dealer to live in the house and not to move around, and let the chicken dealer live in a room with his twelve-year-old son.

The chicken dealers live in bamboo huts, and thunder flashes in the sky outside from time to time.

In fact, at this point in time, but at eight o'clock in the evening, if he is down the mountain, at this time he is usually drinking a night beer and eating barbecue with his friends.

Now let him sleep, his "jet lag" is really inverted,

When he sneezed, the chicken seller felt a little cold, and he couldn't sleep under the covers. Turning around, the patriarch's twelve-year-old son was staring at the chicken dealer with wide eyes, and his eyes did not blink.

The chicken seller shook his eyebrows at him, then took out his button phone and began to text his wife at home.

The sound of the mobile phone "beep" and the flickering lights on the screen made the child very interested.

Seeing that the child was staring at him, the chicken dealer simply asked the child to come over and ask him if he recognized the thing in his hand. Although the child was shaking his head, it was obvious that he was very concerned about the chicken dealer, a thing that had long since passed.

Anyway, it was still early, and the chicken dealer simply began to teach the child to play with his mobile phone.

More than ten years ago, although the mobile phone was buttoned, there were many stand-alone games that I thought were very interesting at the time.

Like "Snake", "Solitaire" and the like, you can't stop playing at all.

The more the patriarch's son played, the more interesting he felt, and the chicken dealer saw that he liked it, and after talking to his wife, he simply threw his mobile phone to him and let him play by himself.

That night, lightning and thunder thundered outside.

In the small bamboo house, this mobile phone full of modern atmosphere opened the eyes of the patriarch's son.

Early the next morning, the chicken dealers were leaving.

When the patriarch's son sent him away, he kept staring at his coat pocket, thinking about it.

The chicken dealer knew what he was thinking.

So, carrying the patriarch on his back, he gave the mobile phone to the patriarch's son.

"You child, living in this mountain all the year round, the outside world has already been turned upside down, you don't know anything, and you are really pitiful. If you have the opportunity to come to me in the future, I will take you to open your eyes. ”

After saying that, he left his phone and left.

The chicken dealer returned to the county town and began his previous life again.

But one weekend a few days later, he was just about to take his son out to the playground to play, when he ran into the patriarch.

The child was standing across the street, looking at the passing traffic in horror, cowering and completely overwhelmed.

The chicken dealer hurriedly stepped forward and asked him why he had suddenly appeared here.

The boy took out his mobile phone and said to him, "It's out of battery......

The chicken dealer suddenly realized.

Yes, he only gave the mobile phone to the child, but he didn't take into account that the mountain didn't even have electricity, except for the patriarch who occasionally went out, the whole village was resting from sunrise to sunset, living the most primitive farming life.

Therefore, after the patriarch's son ran out of battery, he could only sneak down the mountain to find himself.

The chicken dealer nodded and quickly helped the child's mobile phone to be charged.

Thinking that it would be difficult for him to go down the mountain, he drove him and his son to the playground together.

Faced with a colorful world that he had never seen before, the patriarch's son was stunned.

He always thought that this world was the sun, the moon, the mountains, the springs, and the chickens raised by the people. When he went down the mountain today, he found that everything was completely different from what he imagined.

Passing three cars, jumping machines, and bumper cars made his heart beat faster;

Lollipops, marshmallows, and chocolate stimulate his taste buds;

The fashionable clothes of the surrounding crowd opened the eyes of the patriarch's son......

After playing in the playground, the chicken dealer still had two children, but he ate hot pot and dessert, in short, that day was very fulfilling, and of course, a lot of money was spent.

The chicken dealers have money and do not have heartache at all.

The son was an only child, and he had no brothers or sisters, and this time, someone played with him, and the chicken dealer himself felt that it was worth listening.

What is money, anyway, it can be earned back, and the happiness of my son is more important than anything else.

When the patriarch's son was about to leave with his mobile phone, the chicken dealer's son secretly stuffed a lot of candy for him:

"It's okay, you just come down, I'll take you to the Internet ......"

The patriarch's son didn't understand: "Go online? ”

The chicken seller's son widened his eyes: "No, you don't even know what the Internet is?" Haven't you heard of online games, legends, StarCraft, Red Alert or anything? ”

The patriarch's son kept shaking his head.

These words were unheard of to him.

The chicken dealer's son shook his head: "Your world, why is it so boring, next time I come, I have to take you to open your eyes." ”

So, the two agreed on the time and place of the next meeting with the chicken dealer behind their backs.

The chicken dealer and his wife are usually very busy, and they have little time to take care of their son except for money.

only knew that he went to and from school, ate and slept, and as for what his son was doing in his free time, they had no time to take care of it.

So, whenever the chicken seller's son had time, he went to the Internet café to surf the Internet and play games.

Anyway, his parents are generous with money, and he has no concept of playing.

The patriarch's son became a friend of the chicken dealer, and the two often played together, and the chicken dealer's son and the patriarch's son not only played games on the Internet, but also saw a lot of the world.

At the same time, he also unconsciously brought a lot of information he knew from the mountain to the other tribesmen in the mountain.

Yamazato has been in a state of information isolation and closed life before.

Even if the Yamashita Power Supply Bureau wants to come up and install the line, the patriarch is not allowed.

He told the people that everything outside was bad, and coming in would destroy their peaceful life, and that their ancestors had survived like this for generations, and they could not disrupt it casually.

The words of the patriarch have always been in the mountains, and they are absolutely authoritative letters.

Everyone believed that the patriarch would not harm himself.

So, they raised chickens diligently and lived honestly.

Life is dull, but happy.

But the message that the patriarch's son brought back from outside shook everyone's faith all along......
