Go back to Beijing

The raft floated on the surface of the rushing river and rushed downstream at great speed. Gu Yixin lay as if he was asleep, lying on his back in the middle of the raft. Black Bull and Gao Moli each hold a tree trunk, which is used to steer the direction of the raft and keep the raft balanced.

Mountains and rivers are raging, and countless large and small mountain springs flow down from the slopes and flow into the river. The rushing river has branched out into many tributaries one after another, rushing to different fronts! We always drift down the main waterway.

At the beginning, I felt quite fresh and exciting, the green mountains on both sides of the river flashed by, the birds and apes on the shore were endless, quite a bit of boating on the river, the poetry of the white emperor and the colorful clouds.

After a few sharp turns, the raft either hit the cliff or was trapped in the middle of the river, stumbling and embarrassed. After a lot of shaking and bumping, after noon, I was already dazzled by the torture, my internal organs were churning, and finally I couldn't hold it anymore, so I simply lay down next to the raft and vomited.

The more difficult it is, the more excited the black bull becomes, while trying to keep the raft balanced, he roared with a broken gong voice "Everyone rows the big boat" - "The same boat is to help the sea to make way, the trumpet shouts the waves to the side, hundreds of boats compete for thousands of sails, the waves are behind, the shore is in front~~" The black bull sang with self-satisfaction, and his high-pitched singing voice was drowned in the sound of the waves lapping the shore from time to time.

Gao Moli stood at the front of the raft, swinging at the helm, dealing with it freely, completely like the posture of a boat boss. The waves hit him, soaking his clothes.

Fortunately, although the raft was simple, it was very sturdy, and it drifted all the way, and it did not fall apart. As night falls, the river rushes out of the mountain stream and merges into a flat and wide river. The raft then floats on the gentle surface of the river.

After a cup of tea, we went around a bend, and suddenly saw the lights on the riverbank, and the sound of dogs barking faintly, it seemed that there was a town in front of the mountain!

"Finally see the lights of the world!" The black bull shouted excitedly, and together with Gao Moli, he propped the raft to the shore.

It was expected that it would take three or four days to get out of the mountains, but I didn't expect to find the town so quickly by taking advantage of the rushing river after the rain.

We abandoned the boat and landed on the shore, and there was a stone tablet standing next to the shore with the words "Wuke Town", which should be the name of the town. However, in the literal sense of the word, the town should be relatively closed and rarely visited.

The architecture of the town is typical of the 80s, with bungalows as the mainstay, with occasional two-story cement buildings standing between the bungalows, which looks abrupt and lonely.

We didn't have time to rest, so we inquired all the way and carried Gu Yixin straight to the central hospital in the town. The so-called Central Hospital was converted from a dilapidated two-storey building with doctors' offices and pharmacies on the first floor and wards on the second.

The attending doctor had already left work, and only a fat nurse was dozing off in the office. We pushed the door open and scared her out of her chair.

The fat nurse asked us in an authentic dialect, "Which (who) are you?" Paws here (for)? ”

After hearing this, Hei Niu laughed and replied: "Fat sister, what you are asking is not level, of course we came to the hospital to be sick - no, it is to see a doctor!" What's the matter, you still have to check your account to see a doctor here! ”

The fat nurse stared at us suspiciously and asked, "Which one is sick?" I don't think you look like the dripping people in town. ”

On the big night, three soaking wet men, carrying a young and beautiful but ragged woman, can't help but make people suspicious.

I hurriedly stopped the black bull and explained kindly: The unconscious woman is my sister, who likes rock climbing adventures, and she disappeared from mountaineering half a month ago. I asked my two brothers to go up the mountain to look for her, and eventually found her in a col, but she was unconscious. When we went out of the mountain, we were unfortunately attacked by a black bear and were scratched. Only then did he come to the town hospital in despair.

The fat nurse asked me to put Gu Yixin on the hospital bed, rolled her eyelids, listened with a stethoscope again, and said, "She is so dripping, Mu Whatzi (nothing) is in danger of life!" However, we have limited medical conditions here, so for the sake of insurance, you still have to go to the city hospital to check her clam (lower) skull, don't break it! ”

The fat nurse cleaned and stitched up the wound on Gu Yixin's back, injected tetanus and anti-inflammatory injections, and arranged her in a ward on the second floor.

I accompanied him in the hospital and asked Hei Niu and Gao Moli to find a hotel to rest on their own.

At dawn the next day, we took the morning bus to Leshan City and sent Gu Yixin to the specialized hospital again. However, after some examination and diagnosis, several expert doctors were quite surprised by Gu Yixin's condition and did not know how to treat it, so they suggested that we be transferred to a higher hospital.

As soon as I and the black bull are combined, let's just go back to Beijing!

At the moment, he took out all the money left on his body, and sent Hei Niu to the train station to buy four sleeper tickets from Leshan to Tianfu East and Tianfu East to Beijing.

In addition, Hei Niu also stopped by the local antique market and bought a slender sandalwood box. At first glance, the box looked like a boutique, but after some hammering, I concluded that it was a complete Xibei product.

The joke at the moment is Black Bull: "It's really yours, all the goods have come to this place." ”

The black bull whistled and said, "Old Su, you are short-sighted and can't see through my tricks!" Let me ask you, can the little brother's sword be carried on the train with such a swagger? Definitely not, it is clearly written in the "Riding Instructions": It is forbidden to carry controlled knives in the car! So what to do? We have to pack it and turn the Copper Marrow Sword into a priceless antique, so that it won't be hindered. ”

I gave a thumbs up: "Yes, you are still Niu Ye, you are well versed in the way of life, far-sighted, and far-sighted!" What a role model for my generation! ”

Hei Niu is worthy of being an antique dealer who mixes the rivers and lakes, a red sandalwood box, a bright yellow satin cloth, and in a blink of an eye, Gao Moli's copper pith sword was packaged into a genuine antique. When I checked in and got on the bus, I took out my work card from the Institute of Archaeology, and sure enough, I boarded the bus smoothly.

We thought that Tianfu Railway Station would still be heavily guarded, and we were worried about how to deal with inspections when changing trains. But it didn't work out, only a few days later, the strict investigation order was inexplicably revoked, everything returned to the usual order, and we got on the bus with tickets like other passengers.

After finding the corresponding bunk number in the hard sleeping area, we placed Gu Yixin properly and sat down on the folding chair in the aisle to eat. The train has three hard sleepers in a row, and the beds of our four tickets are exactly opposite, two floors below, and the two beds above are empty, presumably because it is the off-season at this time, and they are not sold.

The train to Beijing slowly left the station, looking at the scenery flickering outside the window, my heart suddenly became inexplicably restless!
