Volume 2 Shadows Volume 2 Chapter 13 Shanshui Village (I)

Chu Bing listened to the words of the gatekeeper, and was secretly happy in his heart, he could be regarded as having caught the main master!

Uncle sighed and said:

"Those two children are not easy!"

"It's not easy, you said. Chu Bing asked. Since the uncle wants to say that he has to be a good man, by the way, he can also understand who Lin Shidong is.

"This landscape village, although it has been in Sanshan for hundreds of years, but in the final analysis, it is still an outsider. Some of them have the surname Wang and some have the surname Li, but even if they intermarry with the outside, there has never been a surname Lin in the village. It wasn't until nearly 20 years ago that the elder sister Li of their village picked up the two brothers Lin Shiqiang and Lin Shidong from the forest, and the village had the surname Lin. ”

"This Lin Shidong and Lin Shiqiang are not from the village!"

"That's not it, I heard that the two children were about three years old at the time, and they were hiding in a tree hole in the old forest in the cold winter. If it hadn't been for the old Sister Li, who had gone to pick up the mountain goods, she would have frozen to death. The doorman said with a little embarrassment.

"How did they get to the old forest when they were so small?" asked Chu Bing a little strangely.

"The two children were young at the time, and I only remember that an uncle I knew took them to the old woods. Other things, they simply don't remember. Still, they remember what they called. ”

Since then, the two children have lived in Shanshui Village, and it is really a good thing that Sister Li has been alone and has two children to accompany her. The people in the village also helped, and the two children slowly grew up. About ten years ago, Sister Lao Li took her two children out to sell mountain goods, and she picked up a female doll that had just reached the full moon. At that time, the people in the village said that Sister Lao Li was blessed, and she had both grandsons and granddaughters under her knees.

The old janitor took a hard puff on his cigarette and continued:

"Young man, don't look at Shanshui Village as remote and inconvenient to access, but in the past, there were beautiful mountains and rivers, and it really raised people! If I hadn't had children and grandchildren at the foot of the mountain, I would have moved there in eight years!"

"Isn't it possible now?" asked Chu Bing.

The uncle looked at the mine, threw the cigarette butt into the ground, crushed it with his toes, shook his head and said:

"It's over!"

Pointing to the busy mine, the janitor continued:

"Is this mine good? Good! It's so good! Without it, these 70,000 or 80,000 people in Sanshan Town would still be eating bran vegetables. In any case, the people of Sanshan have to thank the existence of this mine. ”

"Is this mine bad? Bad! Really bad! Since it was built, all the green mountains and rivers have been polluted. There are also trucks back and forth, which have caused them to run over a lot of people in the past two years. If people outside the mountains have problems, at least there will be compensation or something, but the people in the mountains are really miserable!"

Speaking of this, the doorman slapped his thigh hard, then put on a cigarette and sighed and said:

"When the mine was officially opened, gravel dust was everywhere. In less than two years, many workers have suffered from a bunch of problems. There are both pneumosilicosis and heavy metal poisoning, but this is not a big deal compared to Shanshui Village. ”

The old man straightened up and pointed to the stream in the distance with his hand:

"See, it's the stream, when it passed, it was really clear. Small fish and shrimp, that is to see clearly. Now you look at it, it's almost muddy soup! This is the water source of Shanshui Village!"

"Not long after the mine opened, most of the people in Shanshui Village fell ill. I told them at the time, hurry down the mountain to find some subsidies in the town, and move away as soon as possible, this landscape village is uninhabitable. As a result, the town ignored them, and their ancestral graves were all there, and the ancestral graves could not be moved, so they would not leave. The older generation said this is fate!"

"The old and young in the village, young and strong in their twenties and thirties, are just Lin Shidong and Lin Shiqiang. The old people don't want to move, the two of them are in a hurry, and they talk to the old people, and the old people just say a word, the ancestral grave will not move them. At that time, I also tried to persuade them to come, but those old men couldn't listen to them!"

"In the end, it was the two children who suffered. They left the village to work in the city, and they did it in order to earn more money and buy medicine for the villagers. The water source was polluted, so they searched all over the mountains and down the mountain for the water source, and finally found it for them! Although the place is a little far away, how can they drink clean water? ”

The old man took a cigarette, shook his head, and said:

Not long after the water source was found, the elder sister Li and the little Nini became very ill! The two children took them to the city hospital, and they heard that the treatment fee was sky-high! Since then, the two of them have been working outside the village and rarely return to the village. ”

"Didn't you come back?"

"No, even if Sister Li went a week ago, he called and asked me to help tell the villagers. ”

No wonder he suddenly started to commit crazy crimes, it seems that the death of his grandmother hit him hard!

"Uncle, if you want to go to Shanshui Village, do you just go down the stream?"

"Yes, the village at the end. But what are you going to do?"

"I want to see how the village is polluted, collect some information and report it to the city, and see if I can help Shanshui Village. ”

The janitor listened to what Chu Bing said, stretched out his hand and patted Chu Bing's shoulder, and said with emotion:

"You're a nice man, young man! There aren't many people who like to meddle with this kind of business now. If the affairs of the village can really be solved, Uncle will invite you to drink!"

Chu Bing smiled and didn't say anything more. Leaving the motorcycle at the janitor's place, carrying the bucket bag, Chu Bing walked along the stream into the distance.

The stream has become muddy, and the banks are covered with eerie sludge of various colors. But the plants on both sides of the creek are still lush and green. Chu Bing could imagine how beautiful the scenery here was in the past.

After walking along the stream for nearly twenty minutes, the front suddenly opened up. Sure enough, as the doorman said, in the middle of the jungle, there was an open space. There is a pond in the middle of the clearing, surrounded by wooden houses. Surrounded by greenery, insects and birds chirp, it is more quiet and dusty. No wonder the doorman said that Shanshui Village raises people, and if there is no pollution, it is simply like a fairyland.

Coming to the pond, Chu Bing squatted down to take a closer look. Except for the muddy water at the confluence of the creek, the water quality in other places is still transparent and can be seen at a glance. But the mottled color at the bottom of the pond is weird. took out a prepared bottle and filled it with a bottle of water, Chu Bing just wanted to close the lid, and the sound of Ding Lingdang came from his side. From far to near, the sound became clearer and clearer. Chu Bing stood up and saw that an old man was carrying two large buckets of water and was swaying out of the forest.
