Chapter 63: The Green Snake

Sitting under the walnut tree, Mr. Zhang Qingchen smoked cigarettes one after another, and the walnut branches above his head hung low. It is now the summer solstice, and the walnut tree in the yard is full of walnuts, and the walnut branches are very low, and you can pick them by standing under the tree shallowly, reaching out and reaching out.

Xu was too bored, so he stood up, picked a green walnut casually, and then walked to the edge of the pool and grinded the walnut silently. The skin of the walnut is very thin, and after a few random strokes, the core is exposed, and the shallow find a red brick and shoot it on the core, and the white flesh inside is exposed. She got Zhang Qingchen and said to him, "Grandpa, give it." ”

Zhang Qingchen looked at it, shook his head and said, "You eat, I won't eat." ”

"Why doesn't Grandpa eat it?"

"I don't like to eat."

After listening to it, I had to eat it myself. New walnuts taste tender and do not have the bitter taste of dried walnuts. After eating the walnuts shallowly, I went to the sink to wash my hands, and the juice of the walnuts stuck to my hands and was green and black, which was difficult to clean.

After washing her hands, she remembered to make a fortune. So he walked out of the house and went to the family building where Grandpa Liu lived. Mengmei was sitting at the door with the child, she saw Qianqian coming over, so she stood up and greeted Qianqian: "Qianqian, it's a holiday?" ”

"Hmm!" Shallow agreed and walked to the small dark house where Fa Cai lived, which was empty and there was nothing. Lying on the window of the small black room, she only saw a yellow dress that Fa Cai often wore thrown on the ground, and a yellowed photo fell not far away.

"What about getting rich?" Qianqian turned her head and asked Mengmei.

"He's dead." Mengmei smiled and said to Qianqian.

"Dead?" Shallow frowned. "Didn't he catch a cold? How could he die? ”

"He had a cold, but no one was willing to treat him, a minor illness was mistaken for a major illness, plus he stayed in the small dark room all day and cried, his spirit was not good, his eyes were blind from crying, and he died of illness."

"Why did he die?" Shallow and very sad, he didn't understand, a good person, got a cold, and said that he was sick and died. "Where's his body?" Shallow asked Mengmei.

"The dean informed his family to come and bring his body home."

"Fortune ......" shallow thought silently in his heart and walked sadly towards the back hill of the factory. She silently climbed a loess slope along the dirt road alone, and below the loess slope were patches of vegetable fields that had been carved out when she was alive, and all kinds of vegetables were planted in it, which were the fruits of her labor. Only from now on, who will take on the role of making a fortune, continue to water and fertilize them?

Not far from the dirt slope, there is a large camphor tree coiling outside the courtyard wall near the family home. This is a camphor tree that is more than 100 years old, when Facai is alive, he often sits under the camphor tree to enjoy the shade, Facai likes to laugh, he regards the nursing home as his only home.

He likes to get up before dawn, and then step on the morning dew, watching the sunrise in Dongshan slowly rise, the sun is sprinkled on his honest face, and his smile is always so cute, silly, and without scheming.

It's just that all this will eventually become a memory, and the fortune is gone, and the 20s are gone early. As a fool, he works hard to do everything for the lonely and widowed old people around him, although he is a member of the nursing home, but like a loyal volunteer who is not invited, he gives everything and is happy to do it.

Qianqian likes this kind of simple and sincere person, although he is stupid, but the simple atmosphere that emanates from him is rare.

Sitting on the dirt slope, holding a branch in his hand, he quietly looked at the spring flower branches at his feet, at this time, the spring flowers have long since decayed, and only the flower branches are left to extend in clusters, and the branches are getting longer and longer.

"Shallow, what are you doing here?" Zhang Bing walked down from the mountain, carrying a hare in his hand.

"Go away, where do I sit with you?" Shallow gave him a cold look and turned his head to the side.

"Shallow, I'll take you to the Lishan Secret Cave to play!" Zhang Bing looked at the shallow and said.

"Don't go!"

"Let's go!"

After thinking about it, he stood up and asked, "Just the two of us?"

"And Yoko!" Zhang Bing pointed to a boy standing not far away.

"Is he?"

"My classmate, let's go." Zhang Bing said, tying the hare's legs and putting it in a green backpack behind him.

"Well, well!" Qianqian felt that it was okay to stay in the factory, and it was okay to simply climb the mountain.

Lishan is separated from the factory by a few hills, it is a famous recruitment base in ancient times, and there are many recruitment platforms built near the lake on the mountain.

Near the recruiting platform are the tombstones and pines and cypresses of some ancient heroes, and there are also places to worship the heroes of the Warring States period.

Every time you pass here, you can feel a strong masculine atmosphere of the martyr's soul, the ancient trees here are towering, the trees are more than 20 meters high, there are more squirrels in it, and there are many hares. As she passed a tombstone, there was a sudden rattle under the foliage inside. Startled, he stopped.

"There's movement under the leaves!" Qianqian pointed to Zhang Bing not far away. "Is it a snake?" She was a little frightened, her hand grasping the pine tree, and her heart was pounding.

"Where?" Zhang Bing looked for a stick and asked shallow.

"There!" Shallow pointed and wondered what would be down there?

Zhang Bing took the stick and directly lifted the leaves that shrouded it, and after he picked it up like this, a green snake more than one meter long was directly picked up by him and landed directly at his shallow feet. "Ahh Shallow stood there and shouted, she didn't dare to move and looked at the snake on the ground. The snake writhed on the ground a few times, then slid away from the shallow side. Frightened, she calmed down her nervousness, and then threw the pine branch in her hand towards Zhang Bing. "You're going to scare me to death!"

"I didn't mean to." Zhang Bing stood in place. "Who knew that there was something down there, and it was actually picked off by me."

"Isn't there anything that rattles underneath? Are you a pig? Shallow angrily ignored him and walked straight into the pine forest.

"Hey, you wait for me."

"Go away and stay away from me." Asa no longer paid attention to him, but walked towards Yoko, who was walking in front. Yoko is a tall, good-looking boy who wears antique clothes and a pair of white sneakers on his feet.

"What's wrong, shallow?" Yoko turned her head and asked Asami, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he spoke word by word.

"No, it's just a snake." A light expression walked past Yoko's side lightly.

"A snake?" Yoko didn't understand. "What's wrong with a snake?"

"A snake has landed next to me!" Gently looking back at him, he asked contemptuously, "Why are you particularly surprised?" ”

"No, how did it end up with you?"

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? There's nothing to talk about, is it? "Lightly angry.

"No, I just want to tell me that I'm not afraid of snakes, you follow me, I can beat him to death with a stick, and then make you snake soup to drink." Yoko's words suddenly increased.

"Snake soup?" Gently her eyes were about to narrow, she looked at Yoko inexplicably and said, "You are really weird, do you want to eat scorpions, there are a lot of scorpions in the cracks of the stones under the pine trees here, do you want Zhang Bing to catch some for you and let you have a meal?" ”

"I've seen him eat scorpions!" Zhang Bing walked over and said with a smile. Listening shallowly, he looked at Yoko, and was speechless for a moment.

"You're sick, aren't you? Who has eaten a scorpion, I'm kidding, you flatter me like this? "Yoko is a little unhappy." Eat the scorpion, I'll eat the rabbit in your backpack later, see if you're gloating at this time. ”

"Eat, give it to you. I owe you a rabbit anyway. Zhang Bing disagreed. However, let me tell you, there are wild boars in our woods, and if you accidentally rush out and hurt you, don't blame me for not warning you. ”

When it came to wild boars, Yoko turned to Asa and said, "Asa Qian, do you eat wild boars?" ”

"Get out of here!"

"Gee, I'm just kidding, as for it?"

"Get out, where is it going?" Shallow ignored the two of them and walked straight forward.
