By the time it was completely dark, he had already bought all kinds of equipment for entering the mountains, food and water, and a map.

I rented a cheap little hotel and put it in the room for the time being.

"Dad, I bought you some supper, you can eat some. “

Shi Lei opened the door of the ward and spoke.

"Stinky boy, I've already eaten it just now, the service and food in this hospital are still good, you don't need to worry about it. “

Shi Lei smiled, "That's good, I'll put the supper aside, if you are hungry at night, you can heat it up for you to eat." No, this is the map you want. “

"Stinky boy, you open it for me, and take a pen by the way. Shi Shan scolded speechlessly.

Shi Lei reacted at this time, smirked, and hurriedly squatted aside, holding the map, and spreading it out little by little.

"Yes, to the east, a little further down, here into the mountains, and down a small stream. “

Shi Shan recalled carefully while directing Shi Lei to draw lines on the map.

It's just that the memory is relatively long, and from time to time I close my eyes and think about it, and then I open my eyes and overturn the previous route.

In this way, after more than an hour, I looked at the route drawn on the map with satisfaction, "It should be about the same, even if it is almost fine." “

Shi Lei looked at the lines on the map that looked like ghost talismans, and he looked confused.

"Dad, is this okay? Don't hurt me, I'm lost in it, and I'll be eaten by wild beasts all night. “

"Don't worry, Shishi, my memory is still very good, even if it is not good, you can still meet the old mountain people inside, you can always come out. “

"Okay. Shi Lei put away the map in his hand unconfidently.

The father and son chatted until 10 p.m., until an aunt who was a nurse got impatient.

"Patients need to rest early. “

Shi Lei turned his head, "Can't you stay with you at night here?"

"Young man, there is no place for you to rest and sleep, and besides, there are other patients who will find it inconvenient. “

Shi Shan also spoke at this time, "Shi, go back and rest, you are tired for a day, and besides, you have to get up early tomorrow and go into the mountain." “

Shi Lei stood up at this time, "Okay, then I'll go back first, and I'll come back again tomorrow morning before leaving." “

With that, he put aside the unpeeled apple in his hand, turned around and walked away slowly.

By the time I got back to the hotel, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening. The soundproofing of the hotel is not very good, and all kinds of strange sounds can be heard faintly on the way from the corridor to the room.

Shi Lei smiled knowingly, shook his head helplessly, opened the door, and went to bed, but soon sleepiness hit him and fell asleep in a daze.

In the dream, he stood under the chair in front of the main hall, raised his head, and a high voice rang out, "Who are you? “

Unexpectedly, there was no sound response, only the echo formed by his own speech continued to sound, slowly weakening.

"Hey", he sighed deeply, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and muttered to himself, "I hope that tomorrow's trip to Mount Tai will find the answer there." “

In the middle of the night, over the Taishan Mountains, thick dark clouds kept rolling, and occasionally there was a rumbling sound.

In the majestic thunder, the whole mountain became extremely quiet, and the sounds of all kinds of insects and small animals fell silent as if hibernating.

Finally, at dawn, the sky was like a reservoir that opened the gates to release water, and the torrential rain whistled down.

The rumbling thunder in the distance also woke up Shi Lei in his sleep, the figure in the dream disappeared, and he opened his eyes in reality.

"It's raining?"

He got up, opened the window, and looked out. But I found that there were no raindrops.

But the slight darkness of dawn still allowed him to see through the window that there were flashes of light in the sky not far to the south.

"The mountains to the south, aren't they? “

Shi Lei wailed for a while, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that the rain over there was still very heavy.

He smiled bitterly, "This god can't be against me, is he? “

Anyway, the sky outside was slowly brightening, and Shi Lei didn't feel sleepy, so after washing, he walked out quickly to find a breakfast shop.

Filling his stomach, he trotted all the way to the hospital, dispelling the cold on his body and the coolness of autumn.

By the time I arrived at the ward, it was already dawn, but because it was cloudy, there was no sunlight.

Ishiyama also woke up and was about to have breakfast after washing up.

"Auntie, I'll come this time. Shi Lei hurriedly walked to the bed and snatched the breakfast from the nurse's hand.

The nurse smiled and didn't shirk, and handed it over, "What a filial guy, it's rare in this society now." “

Shi Lei also smiled, "Where is it, isn't this what children should do?"

As he spoke, he picked up a spoon and took a bite of porridge and brought it to Shi Shan's mouth.

"Not necessarily. The nurse shook her head, "I have seen a lot of some children, even if there are many filial ones, they can rarely do what you do." And he looks so handsome. Young man, how old is this year, do you have a partner? “

"Well, why is it that the current aunts and aunts are pleasing to the eyes of young people, and the first thing that comes to mind is the introduction object, how can they have so many resources in their hands. “

Shi Lei rolled his eyes, and had deep doubts in his heart, but he still responded without hesitation.

"Auntie, thank you for your kindness, my dad is still like this, how can I be in that mood. “

The nurse aunt also nodded, "Yes, but I think that with such a filial and handsome son as you, your father will definitely be fine, and I will tell you when the time comes, my relatives have a lot of daughters." “

As he spoke, he turned and left, ready to take care of the other patients.

With a "poof", Ishiyama grinned, and the porridge in his mouth almost squirted out.

"Stone, you're much stronger than when your father was younger. Good learning, good character, good looks. If I were like you at that time, how could I still worry about finding a partner, I would have been robbed by someone a long time ago, and there would be nothing to do with your mother. “

Shi Lei poured the porridge in the spoon into his father's mouth, and said viciously, "Dad, you can accumulate some virtue in your mouth, my mother has been absent for so many years, and you are still joking." “

Shi Shan's mood suddenly fell, and he sighed, "Yes, your mother has been away for so many years, I have to be glad that I was different from you when I was young, otherwise I wouldn't have met your mother, and there would be no you." “

Shi Lei didn't answer, but slowly fed the porridge in the bowl patiently one bite at a time.

His mother died of illness when he was just in high school, and he left so quickly and suddenly that he was still in school at that time, and he didn't even catch up with the last face.

This incident has become the biggest regret of his life, and since then, he has become different from others, very sensible, and always carries what he can do, whether it is his own or the people around him, as much as possible.

Putting down the empty bowl, Shi Leizai carefully dried Shi Shan's mouth.

"Dad, it seems to be raining heavily over there in Taishan, so I'm not going to go today. “

"Go, why not. Didn't you hear that there was no thunder outside? I'm done eating, so let's go now. “

"Then, okay" Shi Lei stood up, walked to the nurse's aunt, and said, "Auntie, I'm going to go on a long trip in the past two days, and my dad will trouble you to take care of it, it's troublesome." “

As he spoke, he bowed deeply.

The nurse aunt hurriedly put down the other patient's chopsticks in her hand and reached out to help him up, "Young man, what are you doing here?" That's my job, so bother. Don't worry, I will take care of your dad no worse than you. “

Shi Lei said thank you again, said hello to his father, and turned to leave.

There was a regret behind him, "What a good guy, I hope his dad will get better soon, I have a lot of good girls." “

Shi Lei, who had just walked out of the ward, almost fainted, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and smiled bitterly.

At this time, he suddenly felt that square dancing was really a great invention, how many aunts and aunts were consumed invisibly, and there were fewer things between neighbors, and there were fewer conflicts between elders and young people.

Square dancing is indispensable for a harmonious society.

Back at the hotel, I put a large backpack full of various things behind me, walked to the side of the road, and hailed a taxi.

An honest uncle, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, poked his head out with a stubbled beard, "Young man, where are you going?"

Shi Lei took out the map on his waist, opened it, and then pointed to the starting point of the line, "Uncle, I'll go here." “

"No, little brother, you're going to climb the mountain? It had just rained heavily in the morning, and I had heard from others say that it was very heavy, and I hadn't seen it for many years. Look at your position, do you still go back to the mountain?"

"It's okay, I'll just go over and walk around, uncle, you can make a price, how much?"

The uncle frowned, thought for a while, and stretched out three fingers, "Give me three hundred, I won't lose this price, and I won't fool you, you must know that there is a long section of the road over there that is half-mountain, and it is not easy to walk." “

Shi Lei nodded and put away the map, "Okay." With that, he opened the door and sat in the back seat.

The taxi moved slowly, gradually and quickly shuttling through the streets and alleys, the flow of people and vehicles.

After a while, it was blocked at a traffic light intersection.

The uncle seemed to have been used to it for a long time, and he didn't feel any hurry, feeling the quiet atmosphere in the car, so he said, "Little brother, my name is Jiang Qinian, you can just call me Uncle Jiang." Can you tell me if you're really going to climb a mountain in this weather?"

"Uncle Jiang, my name is Shi Lei" Then he hesitated, leaned forward cautiously, and said softly, "Let me tell you, I got the news from a friend there, there is a river there, and whenever it rains heavily, the river water produced may rush out of the mountain." “

Uncle Jiang's eyes lit up instantly, "Really, can you take me with you?" If you really find any treasure, you will be exempted from this fare, and you can be carried with you when you come back." “

Shi Lei unconsciously touched his face, and for the first time found that he had the potential to be a magic stick, and smiled helplessly, "Uncle Jiang, I'm joking with you, you really believe it." I just made an appointment with a friend a long time ago, who knew that it would rain temporarily, and it didn't matter so much, let's see when we get there. “

"Grass, you kid. "Uncle Jiang is also happy.
