Leaving Sipai Mountain, I no longer walked on foot as before, but found the nearest township, took a shuttle bus to Gengma County, and then transferred to Lincang City to Chuncheng.

Then, I bought a train ticket to the north.

I don't know where I should go, but after thinking about it, I can only go to Jurong in Jiangyin City.

I heard that Maoshan is there.

Before getting in the car, I bought a second-hand phone, retrieved the number, and made a call home.

My mother answered the phone, heard my voice, she was so anxious that she asked me where I am now, I said I was in Chuncheng, southern Yunnan, my mother told me a news, said that my cousin Lu Zuo, his house was sealed, I heard that there were many people at that time, the whole cottage was overturned.

I asked my mother, what is the end of the story?

Mother said she didn't know, some people said it was corruption and bribery, some people said that he was careless about human life, and some people said that he was an American spy, in short, there were all kinds of rumors, and there were all kinds of rumors, and then Lu Zuo's parents were also picked up.

I was in a heavy mood, and my mother asked me, did I have anything to do with Lu Zuo?

I remembered what Leader Yu told me, and subconsciously denied it, saying no, I just looked for him to treat the disease, and as a result, I was introduced to southern Yunnan, and after a few months of treatment, I just got better.

Mother said that's good, when Lu Zuo was developed before, he didn't take care of our family, and now he is down, and we are also powerless; Don't have anything to do with him, I heard from people near Dadunzi that there are always some people who are wandering around his house, maybe they want to do something, you must be careful.

It's really sick like a mountain, and the wall is falling down and everyone is pushing it......

I can't blame my mother for being "snobbish", because in her eyes, her son's safety is the most important thing, and Lu Zuo is just a distant relative after all.

My mother asked me what I was doing now and if I wanted to come home, and I told her that I didn't need to, I had talked to the previous company here, and they welcomed me to go back and continue to work, so now I will go back to the south and save it, and I will come home again when the Chinese New Year comes.

I used to work as a manager in a foreign-funded company in Jiangcheng, Southern Province, and my job was very good, and my salary and benefits were also very good, so my mother was very happy to hear the news.

After a brief chat, I got on the train and started the long journey.

Chuncheng to Wuchang, and then transfer to Jinling, so tossed, when I got off the train at Jinling Station, it was already evening, I did not immediately drive to Jurong, but found a small hotel nearby to stay.

In the early morning of the second day, I went to a nearby shop and bought a five-yuan map of Jiangyin Province, and then talked to the shopkeeper for a while, and then I found a travel agency and took a special tourist bus to Jurong Maoshan Mountain.

Starting from Jinling, it took about two hours to arrive at Jurong Maoshan Mountain.

After getting off the bus, I followed the local tour group up the mountain, first visiting the Yuanfu Wanning Palace at the southern waist of the MPF Peak, and then went to Hwayang Cave, Xike Spring and even the New Fourth Army Memorial Hall to take a look.

When I was in Yuanfu Wanning Palace, I saw these lazy and lazy Taoist priests, and there was a long list of fortune-telling stalls at the door.

However, when I asked about Xiao Keming of the Maoshan Sect, none of them knew.

Those fortune tellers also pulled me and told me that they were authentic and peerless, Maoshan Zhengshuo, who knew astronomy and geography and feng shui, and came in the past and future lives, and asked me what I wanted to ask, what kind of fortune teller called Xiao Keming would, they would, and there were definitely many more tricks.

I thought about it for a moment and asked him, "Will you hit someone?"

The fortune teller in black sunglasses didn't know why I asked, so he only shook his head and said that the gentleman doesn't move his mouth.

I raised my punching bag and said I would hit someone.

Only then did the other party understand what I meant, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to chirp crookedly in front of me anymore.

Following the tour group to visit most of the Maoshan Scenic Area, I didn't see anything except a stomach of doubts, when I had dinner in the afternoon, I asked the group members, saying that Maoshan Taoist, Maoshan Taoist, why did I come all the way, I didn't see anything, occasionally saw a few Taoists, but also weak chickens, what is going on?

The group member was a shy and big-bellied agency cadre, lifted his glasses, and asked me: "You have a good question, but when I watch them perform martial arts, they are tigers and tigers, how can they be weak chickens?" ”

I really want to tell this big-bellied cadre that if I get serious, I can directly knock over all those guys with fists and legs with one fist, and this is no problem.

But I couldn't reveal my details, so I had to tell him that it felt like it.

The big-bellied cadre smiled and said Actually, if you are a really capable person, if you are a master, if so, are you willing to show up every day, come out to make money by performing arts, and let tourists visit, or hide in the deep mountains and old forests to practice, and don't ask about the world?

I'm sure it's better to be in hiding.

The big-bellied cadre smiled and said that you think so, and the master must think more deeply than you; Let me tell you, what about Maoshan, that is, what is talked about a lot in Hong Kong movies, what is really powerful, is still the Heavenly Master Dao of Longhu Mountain, I have a colleague, when I went there last time I traveled, I bought a talisman, although it cost a lot of money, but it is very spiritual, take refuge in Chengxiang, and I will ask for one in the future.

After communicating with the big-bellied cadre, I finally stopped being entangled, thinking that things would definitely not be done so quickly, and I had to be patient.

I participated in a two-day tour of Maoshan Mountain, and stayed in a hotel at the foot of the mountain at night, two people in a room, the big-bellied cadre and I fell in love, and the two lived in one, and when I was free to move around at night, he said that dinner tasted bland, and asked me if I wanted to eat some supper.

After all, as a cultivator, the amount of food is still bigger than ordinary people, and I can't let go of dinner at dinner, and my stomach is full of hunger.

The two hit it off, and the big-bellied cadre called two more group members, a total of four people, agreed on the AA system, and then went out of the hotel, and walked around the neighborhood for a while, only to find that the place was quite remote, and after shopping for most of the day, I saw a food stall in business.

Everyone was tired of walking, so they entered the store and found that the food stalls were deserted and the business was not good.

Seeing this, one of the group members was puzzled, and said that why don't we buy buckets of instant noodles and go back to soak and eat them, right?

The shopkeeper who came to greet him was not happy, and strongly recommended: "Everyone, don't, don't look at the small shop, but there are many specialty dishes, this boiled dried silk, duck blood vermicelli, Ruyi back to the marinated dry, assorted tofu waterlogging, champion beans, salted duck, Wang eggs, stinky tofu, live beads, we are good at everything, and to us, you have to taste the live snail, the soup preparation, the secret recipe, the snail is made from the Maoshan water stream, stained with fairy energy, a big taste, and it tastes full of fragrance......"

As he said this, everyone's stomachs immediately gurgled, and the big-bellied cadre, who was already a foodie, immediately sat down and said don't go, just leave it here.

The four of them sat down, the owner handed over the dirty menu, the four of them circulated it, and felt that although the price was a little high, it was a tourist area after all, and it was a unique business, so they picked two items they liked, and then asked for a dozen beers.

The dish came up quickly, and we were all a little hungry and hurriedly put down the chopsticks.

As a result, I felt that the taste was actually very ordinary, not as authentic as the boss said, and the big-bellied cadre was immediately a little displeased, saying boss, what kind of live water snail are you, it tastes fishy, it won't be dead, right?

The boss didn't like to listen to what he said, and said what you said, let's fry snails, and it's not sashimi, do you have anything to eat alive?

The big-bellied cadre said How do you talk, did I fry your live snail and die before I fried it?

The boss snapped a plate of peanuts on the table, and said nothing.

He was quite heavy this time, showing a brutal look, at a glance he knew that it was not a good stubble, the big-bellied cadre held back the fire in his belly, but he was frightened, and the two people next to him persuaded him again, saying that when he went out, why fight with others, okay, hurry up and eat.

He just gave up, but his face was a little unhappy, and the next few dishes were sorted out.

The atmosphere on the table was not right, but I didn't pay much attention to it, after all, I didn't put my mind here, I picked up the rice bowl, just ate the meal, just some small pickles, and I ate six bowls of rice alone, just like the famine thief who had just been released.

Everyone felt uncomfortable, so they didn't stay long, and they only drank less than three bottles of wine, and when I finished the sixth bowl of rice, they asked me if I was full.

I said that I had eaten well, and the big-bellied cadre asked people to come over and settle the bill.

At this time, the shopkeeper came over, took the bill, glanced at the scraps on the table, glanced at it roughly, and then said with a smile: "Thanks to your patronage, a total of three thousand six hundred and fifty-two yuan, I will go for a fraction, even if it is three thousand six hundred and five." ”

What the?

He frightened us all with one sentence, and the big-bellied cadre snatched the bill, and then the whole person exploded, saying a plate of fried live snails, you count two thousand four for me, how do you calculate this?

The boss calmly pointed to the small words in the bottom corner of the menu and said: "All aquatic products are counted individually, and our live water snails are 38 yuan each." ”
