Chapter 158: First Sight of Alain
Kong Sanye bought a hard sleeper, the hard sleeper is divided into upper bunks, middle berths and lower bunks, there are six beds in one room, and our side occupies five, and there is one bed left that is empty.
"Kong Sanye, why don't you buy a plane ticket, it's much faster than this green car, and I haven't taken a plane in my life." The big head complained about the slow speed of the green car, and at the same time was looking forward to it and longing for a plane. The big head is about the same as me, and he doesn't go far much, that is, he only went far these two times, so he hasn't been on a plane yet.
"As long as you pay for the plane ticket, I will let you sit a few times if you want to." Kong Sanye seems to be in a very good mood today, and he began to joke with Datou.
This time we are going to Miao Jiang, which is recorded in my grandfather's diary, so I also took my grandfather's diary and prepared to read it when I was bored in the car. The green car from Henan to Miaojiang almost has to travel a little more than a day and a night, so we can only get to the place the morning after tomorrow.
Miao Jiang, as the name suggests, is a place where Miao people gather. When it comes to Miao people, the first thing that comes to mind for many people is Guizhou, because many people see that Miao people are from Guizhou on TV, and the two people who have used it to treat cough for generations in TV commercials at that time are Miao people.
However, the scope of Miaojiang is not only in Guizhou, but also includes Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Hunan, Chongqing, Guangxi and other provinces and cities. And this time we are going to that place in Yunnan.
When it comes to Yunnan, many people may immediately think of the 100,000 mountains, the ancient city of Lijiang, and how difficult it was to liberate Yunnan in the TV series.
In this place of Yunnan, what can make us people pay attention is the Miao Jiang Gu Technique, and this is precisely the purpose of our coming here. It is very likely that the bronze bowl and wooden box that my grandfather brought to me from the old peasant came from here, and it is very likely that after Grandpa saw these things, he went directly here.
When the beds were allocated, Datou and Datuan fought and both wanted to sleep in the lower bunks, but there were only two lower berths here, and one was not bought by us. The only lower bunk, we gave it to Kong Sanye, and now the train is about to leave, and we all thought that no one would come to that position, so we started to scramble.
"Big head, big group, don't make any noise, no one should sleep on the bottom bunk, sleep on the top bunk." Kong Sanye spoke, although the big head was still a little suspicious of Kong Sanye and had some opinions on me bringing Kong Sanye, but Kong Sanye's prestige was still there after all, so what he said was not angry and arrogant, and it still had a certain effect.
Datou and Datuan stopped noisy and slept directly on the top bunk. Crooked mouth smiled, and slept in the middle bunk between Datuan and Kong Sanye. I looked left and right, and only the middle bunk under the big head was left for me to sleep. But I didn't rush to sleep, I just sat by the window, waiting to see if anyone would come to the lower bunk, and if no one did, maybe I would be able to rub it.
The train had been running for more than ten minutes, and no one came to the lower bunk, so I lay on the bed directly against the quilt, ready to open my grandfather's diary and take a look. At half past nine, the train was about to turn off the lights, so I wanted to take advantage of the time to take a good look at my grandfather's diary and take a good look at the village recorded in the diary.
"Hello, please give way, this is my place." Just then, a crisp voice interrupted my thoughts. I looked up and saw a smaller girl standing beside me, dressed beautifully. I looked left and right to make sure she was talking to me and quickly got up.
"I'm sorry, I thought you weren't coming, so I lay there. But I just lay down, I don't know if you care? I looked at the little girl in front of me with some embarrassment, after all, I occupied someone's place.
"It was late just now, and the train was about to leave, so I got on the train directly from the front, and I found a place at this time. It doesn't matter if you've been lying down, I don't know how many people have slept in this sleeper before, how do you care about coming over. "The little girl has a sweet voice, and the two dimples on her face look charming.
I looked at the two large boxes behind the little girl, they were all taller than her, no wonder it took so long to find here. After I helped her put the suitcase on the luggage rack, I didn't rush up to the middle bunk, but sat by the window to read Grandpa's diary.
"Big brother, thank you just now, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do with those two boxes. Where did you go? "The little girl sat down across from me, handed me a large bag of snacks, and motioned for me to eat with her.
Gently shaking her hand, she pushed back the snacks she handed over, for these things, I have never liked to eat. But seeing that little girl eat so much, I am very curious about how she can not eat fat.
"Go to Yunnan." As for where to go, I don't know, these things have to get off the train before planning, the only thing I know now is that we are going to Yunnan.
"Are you traveling? My home is from Yunnan, if you go, I can be a tour guide for you for free. "When I said that I was going to Yunnan, the little girl seemed very excited. However, Yunnan was originally a poor mountain and bad water, and after these years of reform and opening up, it has begun to become a tourist attraction.
Especially the hit of the TV series, the description of some literary works, plus the scenery of Yunnan described in the textbook, such as Shangri-La, Lijiang, Dali, etc., such as the Dali Duan family in the TV series "Tianlong Babu", which is from Yunnan, which has attracted a large number of domestic and foreign tourists, and they come to visit in an endless stream.
"We're not here to play." Although this little girl looks cute, I really don't have the heart to talk to her now, I want to hurry up and take a closer look at my grandfather's diary, and find clues in it as soon as possible, so that after getting off the train, my eyes will not be blackened.
"And what are you going to do?" The little girl blinked and looked at me curiously with big eyes, and the posture of breaking the casserole and asking the end made me a little unbearable.
"We're looking for someone." I don't know when, the big head has already stood next to me. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the big head standing next to me, and quickly got up and gave up my place to him, so that he could have a good chat with the little girl.
The big head is much better than me, and he can hook up with a stranger in three minutes, just like his own buddy. And I could see that the big head seemed to be a little interesting to the girl, so I just patted the big head on the shoulder, leaving a space for them to run and lie on the bed by themselves.
The middle shop is really not a good place to read a book, not to mention that the light is blocked, and you can't even lift your head, so you can only lie there. Seeing the big head chatting with the little girl, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, the big head is probably going to fall into it this time, but let him be.
In a daze, I fell asleep directly, and when I woke up again, all the lights in the carriage were out. Listening to the deafening snoring of the big head, I began to suspect that I was woken up by it, and began to admire how Kong Sanye and the others fell asleep.
I can't continue to sleep, and the snoring of the big head is too shocking. So, from the middle bunk, I took a notebook and flashlight, climbed down with difficulty, sat on a stool by the window, turned on the flashlight and began to look through the handwriting.
"Brother Ye Qiang, you can't sleep either." I almost jumped at the sound, my heart pounding. The little girl got up from the bed and sat down across from me again.
"Why didn't you sleep?" I was a little helpless to deal with her, and once again closed the notebook, and the flashlight shone on her.
The little girl didn't speak, but covered her mouth with one hand and smiled, pointing to the snoring head. Looking back at the big head, this snoring, no wonder the little girl couldn't sleep.
"You're still a student, are you going home to visit your family this time? Don't know your name yet? "I really had no choice, so I had nothing to say.
"My name is Alan, Brother Ye Qiang, and your name was told to me by Brother Lin Zhe. You don't even know about the National Day, do you, go home on the National Day holiday. "I really forgot what time it was, I didn't expect that it would be the National Day so soon, so whether the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed or not, I don't remember much.
"Alan, your family also lives in Yunnan, so which ethnic group are you, there seem to be many ethnic minorities over there." Since the diary can't be read, I just chatted with this little girl for a while, maybe I can get some clues, at least her home is over there.
"Well, there's a lot over there. I'm from the Miao tribe, what's the matter, Brother Ye Qiang doesn't look like me. As she spoke, the little girl spun around in front of me with her hands outstretched. I could tell from the way she spun in circles that she was right. Miao people are all good at singing and dancing, and her movements can't be so natural if ordinary people don't have skills for a few years.
I nodded at her and said, "In terms of movement, it's very similar, but in terms of appearance, I guess no one can tell." I think it will definitely be more beautiful if you wear your national costume and do that action just now. ”
After chatting casually for a few more words, the snoring of the big head gradually died down, and I began to feel a little sleepy, so I climbed directly and with difficulty to the upper bunk, and said to Alan in the lower bunk that I would see you tomorrow, and then fell into a dream again.
When I woke up again, it was already dark outside, and Kong Sanye said that in another two hours, I would not be able to see the scenery outside as I am now, but endless tunnel groups, one after another, and just after one came out, I entered the other, and I couldn't count them.
"Brother Ye Qiang, come, eat an egg." When Alain saw me wake up, he stood up and handed the peeled egg directly to my hand.
I didn't think about it, I just took it and took a bite, but after biting, I felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. Da Tuan and Kong Sanye looked at me with strange eyes, crooked mouths with expressions that seemed to be smiling rather than smiling, and sat by the window with big heads, and an expression of wanting to swallow me alive startled me.
And Alan also felt that the atmosphere at this time was a little embarrassing, and his face immediately turned red, and he lay directly on the bed and covered himself tightly with the quilt. Kong Sanye and Datuan stretched out their thumbs at me at the same time, and the big head stretched out his fist towards me like a demonstration.
I stuffed the eggs directly into my mouth in three or two, and quickly climbed down from the middle bunk and pulled the big head to the junction of the carriage, this matter has to be explained clearly, I and Alan are really nothing, and they have known each other for the same time, but they just chatted a few more words when they couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. This is still thanks to the big head, if it weren't for his snoring like thunder, would we have had a chance to chat in the middle of the night, it would have delayed me from reading the diary left by my grandfather.
"Qiangzi, if you like it, go on, we two brothers, don't say anything." The big head patted me on the shoulder, and there was some sadness in his tone, as if he was sticking a knife in his brother's ribs, and even ignoring his daughter-in-law and children.
