【001】Back to the countryside

Next Chapter

The old bus stopped in front of the roadside stop sign, and a young man who looked to be at most eighteen or nineteen years old stepped out of it, looking like he had just woken up.

Doodle!

When the young man got off the bus, the bus automatically closed the door and continued to drive along the road towards the distance, and finally disappeared completely from the young man's eyes.

Nearby is an open wilderness, all of which are rice paddies as far as the eye can see, and if you look further afield, you can find a large number of houses and buildings in the north direction, all of which are two, three, or four storey old houses.

Shang Yan rubbed his eyes, took a big breath tiredly, and then put on the backpack he was carrying in his hand and strode towards the housing complex.

Dongmu Town is a town close to the city but not within the city, the location is the so-called urban-rural junction, because the urban planning has not yet developed to this side, so the useless land in the area near Dongmu Town is particularly much, in order not to waste these land, the townspeople of Dongmu Town have made it all into rice fields a few years ago, and at the same time, some large vegetable households have also set up vegetable greenhouses, and the vicinity of Dongmu Town has been transformed into a very local atmosphere.

Shang Yan's grandfather is a native of Dongmu Town, not long ago Grandpa Shang died, and the old house left behind and a piece of farmland used by Grandpa Shang to grow vegetables and raise chickens were less people to take care of, no, Grandpa Shang's first seven days passed, Shang Yan was sent to Dongmu Town by his parents, planning to let him take advantage of the summer vacation to stay in Dongmu Town for a while, by the way, take care of the vegetables and chickens left by Grandpa Shang.

"I'm so tired, I had to spend all my summer vacation in the countryside after graduating from high school." Shang Yan stepped on the dirt-covered path, looking at the outline of Dongmu Town, which was getting closer and closer to him, and said.

Soon, with the footsteps of young people, Shang Yan walked through a few rice fields and entered Dongmu Town, it was more than nine o'clock in the morning, there was no one walking around in the town, everyone either went to work in the field or went into the city to buy some items, and there were only a dozen children scattered on the streets of the town playing the game of cos Avengers vs. bald head.

"Don't run! Eat Me Hulk with a punch! Cuckold Blaster! ”

"Iron Man, you can't catch up with my bald head!"

Shang Yan carefully bypassed the group of bear children with a tense face, and then walked towards the location of the old house where his grandfather lived with the memory in his impression.

This is a small two-story building in the far corner of Dongmu Town, the small building is not a modern reinforced concrete house, but a classic 60s rural house made of irregular stones, then filled with cement in the gaps, and the house is made of wood as beams.

This kind of house is full of quaint atmosphere, Shang Yan clearly remembers that his grandfather's house was requisitioned by the local garrison in the past, and there is a forty-centimeter cement square pillar inserted on the side of the house, on which the word 'military boundary' is written in black paint.

Of course, these are all things of the past, and the garrison has long since left, but it has left a lot of interesting things in the mouths of the old people in Winterwood Town.

"Found it." Taking out the key to the old house that his father gave him before, Shang Yan directly opened the door and walked in, speaking of which, he hadn't been to Dongmu Town for a long time since his first year of high school.

I've been addicted to games before, and it's not until now that my grandfather is gone, and it's the first time I've returned to my hometown.

"Ahem." Shang Yan covered his nose and coughed twice, and hurriedly opened all the doors and windows in the house, because there was no one living in it for a period of time, and the doors and windows were closed, the interior of this old house was full of musty smell at this time, of course, it was also possible that many things in the house were made of wood.

Putting his backpack on the table, Shang Yan pushed open the back door of the house and walked out, the north of Dongmu Town is a big mountain, the deeper it goes, the more uninhabited, if it goes too deep, it will really reach a primeval forest, where the signal is out of balance, and it is easy to get lost in humidity, once you encounter any accidents, even asking for help has become a luxury.

Shang Yan's grandfather's old house is the closest house to the mountain in the whole of Dongmu Town, and the vegetable patch and chicken pen that he needs to take care of this time are in the backyard, and the moment Shang Yan walks out the back door, a chicken coop made entirely of barbed wire and wood and a vegetable field full of cauliflower come into his eyes.

It's still relatively easy to raise a group of mature chickens, Shang Yan used to learn from his grandfather, you just need to release all the roosters and hens out of the chicken coop when you get to dinner, let them wander around in the chicken pen, and then take a bowl with some sun-dried corn kernels and rice and scatter them evenly for them to eat.

In the days when Grandpa Shang raised these chickens in his absence, the old neighbors in the town came over to help take care of them, so that these chickens could survive smoothly to this day, otherwise what Shang Yan saw now would be a group of dead chickens.

"Who are you?"

Just when Shang Yan was looking at the big green mountain in the distance, a female voice suddenly sounded not far away, sounding like she was very vigilant, Shang Yan quickly turned her head to look, and saw a long-legged girl who looked quite pretty was standing not far away staring at him.

Shang Yan thought that he had just come to his grandfather's house, and most of the people who could appear in the town were locals, and he hadn't been to Dongmu Town for too long, so if he didn't explain it well, he might let others misunderstand him as a thief.

So he hurriedly said: "My name is Shang Yan, and I am my grandfather's grandson. ”

“?” The girl wondered, "Who is your grandfather?" ”

Shang Yan was speechless for a moment, this question is really in the middle of the heart, he has been a grandson for more than 20 years, and Shang Yan only found out today that he didn't know his grandfather's name at all.

But fortunately, the long-legged girl has no problem with her brain, she is a normal person, through the house where Shang Yan is currently standing and the original owner of this house, she successfully judged through the name of Shang Yan's confession that Shang Yan should be the grandson of Grandpa Shang.

After knowing that Shang Yan was not a bad person, the long-legged girl breathed a sigh of relief and walked over with a basin full of water.

I saw that she was wearing white short-sleeved and sweatpants, although she was wearing very ordinary and loose, she still couldn't cover her natural beauty and slender figure.

"My name is Liu Ya, when Grandpa Shang was not at home, my mother was responsible for helping to take care of the chickens he raised, and this time I came to change the water." Liu Ya walked to the side of the chicken pen by herself, poured all the clean water in the basin into the chicken pen, and a long basin made of aluminum alloy was inside.

After doing all this, Liu Ya said hello to Shang Yan and left, looking at her back, Shang Yan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's still a girl in the countryside whose appearance is real enough, good-looking is good-looking, and if it's not good-looking, you don't have to worry about changing your face as soon as you put on makeup." ”

After checking the situation in the backyard, Shang Yan returned to the house again, from today he has to live alone in this old house, beds, stoves, tables and chairs, toilets, these places are cleaned before they can be used, after all, grandpa needs to be hospitalized in the city because of illness, because of this matter, he has been away for nearly half a month, so the problem of dust accumulation in the old house is very serious, and there is no way to move in if he does not clean.

In the work of hygiene, Shang Yan is still very diligent, and the cleaning can reduce one thing that needs to be done by cleaning it early, he walked directly into the utility room on the first floor, and planned to find a mop and broom to clean up the dust on the ground on the first floor first.

Although his grandfather left for a while, Shang Yan and his father did not stop paying the electricity and water bills of the old house because of this, so the light source can be used directly, Shang Yan turned on the light bulb in the utility room, and directly rummaged in it.

The things in the utility room of the old people in the countryside are completely different from ordinary people's, what hoes, sickles, hats, clothes, dustpans, bamboo brooms, watering cans, the whole utility room is very messy, and it is even very difficult to find a place to stay, and the most strange thing for Shang Yan is a blackboard hanging on the wall.

The blackboard is more than a meter long and a meter wide, and it is rectangular, with a pattern drawn in white chalk on it.

It is a pattern that resembles two fish tailing each other, some like tai chi, and some like copper coins, which feels more ambiguous when you look at it, and has the feeling of being scribbled by a child with chalk.

The reason why Shang Yan felt strange was because his grandfather was not a literate person, he could not read a few big characters, and the only word he could write was his own name, so he had no need to buy a blackboard to hang at home, and in Shang Yan's impression, he had no memory of this blackboard in his mind at all.

"It's strange, grandpa has nothing to do with hanging a board in the utility room." With a hint of curiosity, Shang Yan walked towards the blackboard, and at the same time reached out and touched the strange pattern painted on the blackboard.

⚠Prompt.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

You will have the right to run the Graveyard of Terrors,

From now on it is necessary for the development of the cemetery

Construction and effort, is it certain to receive?

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

OK │ Yes

The pattern on the blackboard instantly dissipated into ash, and then under Shang Yan's gaze, a text question similar to a selection box slowly appeared on the blackboard.

"It's ...... What the hell am I doing? Shang Yan looked at the blackboard in surprise and said.

Obviously, a normal blackboard will definitely not have such a strange situation, if Shang Yan will run out and tell others that words automatically appear on a blackboard, no one will want to believe what he says.

If Shang Yan hadn't seen it with his own eyes at this moment, he would definitely not believe that such a thing would happen in the world.

As a young man born in modern society, Shang Yan stood in front of the blackboard and thought about it again and again, and finally chose to reach out and press the word [OK] on the blackboard.

Suddenly, a whole new pile of text quickly appeared on the blackboard.
