Chapter Seventy-Seven: Uninhabited Village
A week later, Zhang Dashan, Zhou Hao and the three of us stood in front of the grave of Zhang Dashan's parents.
"Dashan, what are your plans for the future?" I looked at Zhang Dashan and asked.
Zhang Dashan gently touched the tombstone of his parents, smiled and said, "I understand now, no matter how old I am or how many wrong things I have done, in front of my parents, I will always be their child, even if their usual feelings are not overflowing, but they will still give their lives to protect me." ”
After a pause, Zhang Dashan took a hard breath and said, "In a few days, I will go out to work, hoping that one day, I can fulfill my parents' dream and build Shimen Village into a rich village." ”
After listening to Zhang Dashan's words, I smiled with relief, gently hammered his shoulder, and said in a firm tone, "Come on!" I'm sure you can do it! With your parents' expectations! ”
"Come on! I hope that one day when we meet again, we can call you Boss Zhang! Zhou Hao said half-jokingly.
Zhang Dashan smiled heartily, turned around and hugged me and Zhou Hao's shoulders, the three of them laughed for a while, Zhang Dashan looked at the fiery sunset in front of him, and said in a low tone, "Where are you two going?" ”
Zhou Hao held his smile and looked at me, I smiled and said, "We people who learn the Tao are all over the world, and wherever we go, it can be regarded as fate!" ”
The next day, early in the morning, at the entrance of Shimen Village.
Zhang Dashan, who had just cried tears and snot, felt a little uncomfortable in my heart.
Walking aimlessly on the road full of small stones, Zhou Hao suddenly stopped, looked at me walking in front, his lips moved, and after a while, he gritted his teeth, called out to me and said, "Huoyi, we, it seems that we are also going to separate." ”
I was stunned for a moment, and secretly said in my heart that this kid finally said it, and from the first time we met, he had something on his mind.
I walked slowly to Zhou Hao and waited for him to continue.
"My mother, she has coronary heart disease and needs heart bypass surgery, and the operation fee is 100,000 yuan, and the hospital gave me two months to make up the operation fee."
"My sister and I put together all the money we could move, and we only got 50,000 yuan. Like the mountain, I had no choice but to come out and be a thief. ”
"Being a thief, not only can I steal money, but compared with other things, I have to be safer, I can steal it, I can steal it, forget it if I can't steal, as long as I am careful, I can not only make up the surgery fee, but also not let my mother know the source of the money."
"With my mother's character, if she knew that I stole the money, she wouldn't have agreed to it. But fortunately, I met you and experienced the things of the Dashan family, and I suddenly realized that the parents are most worried about and most worried about not themselves, but their children, as long as the children are well, they are willing to exchange their lives for the safety of their children. ”
And how can I compare the hearts of my parents with such a cheap method? I decided to go home and do my best, even if it was to smash the pot and sell iron, I would use the right means to make up for my mother's surgery. ”
I nodded lightly and said, "Zhou Hao, what you said is right, only what children do with the most sincere heart can be used as a kind of reward for their parents." Any crooked ways are a kind of blasphemy against the feelings that parents sincerely pay for their children! ”
Zhou Hao pursed his lips, smiled and said, "Yes, I understand!" ”
After a pause, Zhou Hao looked at me and said, "Huoyi, I know what you do is quite dangerous, but in the future, you must pay attention to safety and be careful in everything." Zhou Hao wiped the corners of his reddish eyes and said, "Huoyi, it is my Zhou Hao's blessing to meet you and know you!" You are my benefactor Zhou Hao! Take care! ”
Hearing what Zhou Hao said, my nose was slightly sour, since I came to this place, I have almost no friends, and now I finally met Zhou Hao and Zhang Dashan, but after all, they have to separate, and there is a banquet in the world.
I patted Zhou Hao's shoulder, inserted my right hand into the treasure bag, and felt out a bead glowing with cyan light, I handed the bamboo to Zhou Hao's side, and said, "I will remember everything you say!" I brought this bead out of the sarcophagus of that barren mountain, you can take it, you should be able to exchange it for some money, and it is important to treat your mother first! As long as you can work well in the future, it can be regarded as a reward for your mother! ”
"Fire! I ......" Zhou Hao's eyes were a little blurry.
"Alright, take it! If we meet again in the future, we will still be brothers! I interrupted Zhou Hao's words and forced the cyan bead into Zhou Hao's hand.
Zhou Hao took a deep breath, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, gently hammered my shoulder, and said with a smile, "It's still a brother!" ”
Looking at the back of Zhou Hao's departure, I feel a little empty in my heart, I am alone again, Zhou Hao and Dashan have their own goals, but where is my goal?
At this time, what I didn't know was that the cyan bead was a night pearl, worth millions, and what I didn't know was that a few years later, a billionaire appeared in this city, this rich man's name was Zhou Hao, and the general manager of the company's security he created was Zhang Dashan.
And a super-poor village called Shimen Village, a village forgotten by the government, actually received the help of Zhou Hao's 10 million funds, and a few months later, the originally unknown mountain village immediately became bare hands.
The media asked the protagonist Zhou Hao why he invested in the construction of such a small village, and he only said that it was to fulfill the dreams of two old people and follow the thoughts of a young man.
After listening to Zhou Hao's words, the major media speculated about who the two old men and the young man were, but unfortunately, they would never know. After consultation with the relevant departments, Zhou Hao renamed Shimen Village Wuhuo Village, just to commemorate one person, of course, these are all years later.
After walking south for another half a month, I came to a village, surrounded by stone mounds about a few tens of meters high, on which all kinds of strange poplars, camphor trees and other wild plants grew. From time to time, there was the sound of birds and insects, standing on a tall earthen stalk, looking out towards the village, where the houses were sparsely made of stone and mud. Against the backdrop of this environment, the whole village looks very pristine.
I have no money on me, but there are still five hundred in the bank card, but there is no ATM here, if you want to walk through this village to the town, how can it take a day or so, but now, it is almost evening, cultivators, just find a family to spend the night.
Thinking so, I got down from the earthen stalk and walked on a road full of gravel, which was clean and free of plants, and it seemed that it should be the way for the villagers to enter and leave the village.
After walking for a short time, when I was about to touch the hill, I saw two figures in front of me, pulling a cart with some packages on it.
Looking closer, these two figures are an old man and an old lady, looking at them like this, they should be moving out of the village, now the living conditions of the country are better, it is still like a primitive society, and the traffic is inconvenient, and it is normal to move out.
Just as I was passing by these two old men, the old lady holding the luggage suddenly stopped me, "Hey, young man, are you from outside?" ”
I was a little confused, but I politely stopped, looked at the old man, and nodded.
The old lady also nodded, and asked again, "Then what are you doing here?" Into the village? ”
"Yes! Grandma, I'm a monk...... I'm here to play and now it's getting dark and I'm looking for a place to stay for the night. "Originally, I wanted to say that I was a cultivator, but when I thought about it, I hurriedly said a lame reason, because who would come to such a desolate village for a tour, and the adventure is almost the same.
But fortunately, the old man didn't dig deeper, she looked at me with some surprise, and then said, "Young man, you better find a new place to live!" The village is running out! ”
I was stunned for a moment, although this village is desolate, there are one or two hundred people, and it is normal to move a few households, but how can one or two hundred people move away when they say they will move away?
Seeing that I was a little disbelieving, the old lady glanced at her wife, the old man pulling the cart.
The old man took a puff of the dry cigarette that had just been lit, and said, "Young man, we two old guys don't need and can't lie to you, let's be honest with you, this village has been making monsters recently, biting a lot of poultry to death, not to mention, and biting people to death in the past two days, I called the police, and the police couldn't find anything, I heard some people say that this monster has black hair on its body, and its eyes are green, which is scary!" While the two days have been more stable, the people in the village have moved out, young man, listen to our advice and don't enter the village! ”
