In this way, the crux of the problem is very easy to see, in the blink of an eye, only to hear the big head laugh and laugh, "So that's the case, we have made a preconceived habitual mistake, these four parts of the kraft paper can not be dealt with according to the conventional patchwork method, but to do the opposite, we take it for granted that it is the outer area but should be used as the inner piecework." "As he spoke, he started to move" just like this, and finally formed an irregularly shaped map, but the irregularity is not important, the important thing is that in this way, it is obvious that it is a map, the small barbarian country is in the territory of Bashu, and a hundred kilometers north of Rongcheng is like a mountain stream. ”

Seeing that they finally figured out the location, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, Pang Qinghe showed a rare smile, and said happily, "Since you already know where the place is, let's set off tomorrow." ”

"Hmm." We nodded.

For the rest of the day, everyone scattered out to buy a large amount of supplies needed to go out, because depending on the situation, this time they were probably going to a barren mountain where birds don't lay eggs. When I walked down the street holding Xiu'er's hand and looking up at the mountains, I couldn't help but feel a sense of panic, after all, I really didn't want to go into the mountains again.

Xiu'er smiled sweetly at me, "This time it's to help Sister Qinghe, but there are some things that I can't understand, there shouldn't be any danger, so don't worry about it anymore." ”

I looked down at her familiar little face, I don't know when it started, the muscles on my face stiffened, I couldn't fiddle with the familiar expression I used to have, to be honest, I didn't know what my face would look like at the moment, and the words in my mouth couldn't help blurting out "I'm just tired, nothing else." ”

Xiu'er gave me a worried look and then turned back. Clam up.

Buying the materials needed to enter the mountain is already a familiar road for us, Rongcheng is a very large city, things are very easy to add, and no one will ask questions. It didn't take long for the two of us to buy all the items on the list.

The two of them went to the street with large bags and stopped the car and quickly returned to the inn, as expected. We were the first to return, and when we arrived at the room, after putting down the mess on our hands and back, Xiu'er suddenly kissed me on the cheek and said softly, "Mosquito, if you are tired, do you want to sleep for a while, I will call you for dinner." ”

Suddenly, I felt. Xiu'er is still the same Xiu'er, her smile is still the same smile, but she looks a lot haggard inexplicably, and she never complains along the way, but I have hardly done anything for her.

Thinking of this, "Xiu'er, time is still gone." I'll accompany you to go shopping, I heard that Rongcheng is still very beautiful. ”

"Huh? Shopping? Don't. If you're in a bad mood, it's better to rest early. Xiu'er heard that it was almost a reflex rejection, she was such a person, she only thought about me, which made people feel distressed.

"Let's go!" I took her hand and pulled a wad of money out of my backpack and stuffed it into my coat pocket. He strode out, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a sweet smile on Xiu'er's face. When he landed, nearly half of the previous gloom and misery disappeared.

From three o'clock in the afternoon that day, I accompanied Xiu'er. Either walking, or taking a car, or simply finding an elegantly decorated high-end restaurant to rest for a while, until 9 o'clock in the evening, six hours to visit almost all the bustling streets of Rongcheng. Of course, the harvest was quite rich, and in the end, I was like a human hanger carrying one small bag after another, attracting the sideways glances of many people on the road.

But all the tiredness, embarrassment. When you see Xiu'er's heartfelt and happy smiling face, it doesn't matter anymore. After visiting the shops, she first bought a few sets of clothes for me, and then bought two sets for the big head, the fat man, the sunspot, the taro, the monkey, the smoker and Pang Qinghe, and finally when the night fell and the lights were on, she bought two sets for herself as if perfunctory.

You can imagine how many bags I have to carry alone.

On the way back, Xiu'er Xingxing found a food stall, bought a bunch of very cheap and smelling cooked food, sat on the rickshaw and rode the night, exhaled the heat, leaned happily on my shoulder, ate without a bite, and looked at the stars in the sky without saying a word.

To be honest, sitting in the rickshaw, I closed my eyes, hugged Xiu'er, and really wanted to think that time would stand still, and the driver would never stop, driving me to the ideal distance.

However, reality is reality, and it always backfires. After a short reverie, it was the vicissitudes of the coachman's voice that pulled me back, "Boss, it's here." ”

When I returned to the room, everyone else was already having dinner, and when I saw me walking in with a big bag and a small bag, and then looked at Xiu'er with a blowing breeze on her face, she couldn't stop coaxing, "Yo, the husband and wife are going shopping." ”

"Hey, hey!" Xiu'er smiled happily and took off the clothes she bought for them from my arm, "Yes, it's rare that mosquitoes think of accompanying me today, of course enjoy it, by the way, it's yours, everyone has a share." ”

"Huh?" The big head put down the dishes and chopsticks suspiciously, stood up, slowly took the small bag handed to him by Xiu'er, and opened it to see, "Xiu'er, you bought clothes for me?" ”

"That's right, don't be in a daze, fat man, smoker, come here, and expect me to be a woman all the time."

That night, everyone was smiling, without the slightest nervousness, even the sullen fat man and Pang Qinghe gradually showed a sincere smile, and a group of big men ran back to the room to change into clothes like children. Simply put, Xiu'er made everyone recover. And I looked at them, and the casual happiness came back again.

The long-lost laughter gradually filled the whole room, we let go of all our worries, talked and laughed, Pang Qinghe could even tell the suffering suffered during the abduction as a joke, for a while, we seemed to have returned to the age of not looking back on the past, not looking forward to the future, just caring about today.

Early the next morning, each of the 10 of us put on a huge backpack and dressed up as tourists and set off.

According to the relevant information that Datou later sorted out, the destination of this trip is in a remote place called by the locals as the Dragon Stream, inaccessible, there will only be nearby medicine pickers, it is said that the more strange and dangerous the place, the more likely there will be rare herbs, and if you want to reach the Dragon Stream, there is no normal way to enter, you can only rely on your legs to advance for at least ten hours, trek through the bumpy mountain road full of deep grass, insects, poisonous snakes, and then cross the two high mountains before entering the boundary.
