Chapter 2 Changes in Hometown
In the summer town, the mountain breeze blows, bringing a trace of coolness, and after a night of heavy rain, the leaves of the plane trees in the courtyard exude a crystal luster.
The coolness from the window made the sleeping Mo Lin stretch his waist, and he moved his neck a little lazily, and suddenly there was a clicking sound.
After a simple wash, looking at the breakfast that had already been set on the table, Mo Lin ate quickly, breakfast was very simple, small porridge, buns, but in Mo Lin's opinion, this was better than any food he had eaten outside before.
"Lin'er, get up so early, why don't you sleep more. 〞
Just as Mo Lin was gobbling up his meal, a gentle voice came from behind him, and he saw Mo Lin's mother coming from outside, carrying a large bag of things in her hand.
"Hehe, Mom, it's not early, I'll go to Wang Ze's house later, and I may not come back for dinner at noon." 〞
Hearing his mother's words, Mo Lin put down the bun in his hand and then said.
"Well, it's time to thank people, in the past few years that you haven't been at home, people have often come to us to help me and your dad do some housework. 〞
"Don't worry, Mom, I will. 〞
After Mo Lin finished speaking, he ate the rest in three or two bites, and then chatted with his mother for a while before turning around and walking towards the door.
Looking at the back of the body that had grown into an adult, Mo Lin's mother nodded with satisfaction, and then turned to busy her own affairs.
Walking on the road in front of the door, looking at the houses that have already been built on both sides, the original memory seems to have become blurred, I remember that these houses were still very dilapidated before, but I didn't expect that in this short period of three years, there would be such a big change.
Along the dilapidated cement road, Mo Lin first bought some fruit on the street, and then walked towards Wang Ze's house, he hadn't seen him for three years, and he didn't know what this kid had become now.
"Brother Lin, why did you come so early, I just wanted to go to your house to find you. 〞
Just around a corner, a young man of about sixteen or seventeen years old walked in front of him, a little thin, wearing a white striped short-sleeved shirt, his bright eyes flashed from time to time, and his hair stood on end, looking at Mo Lin with a smile at the moment.
"I also just arrived, I didn't expect to see you for a few years, your kid has grown taller again, but that body is still so thin, isn't it weak. 〞
Looking at the young man who kept walking in front of him, Mo Lin also laughed.
"Brother Lin, you are still so damaged, let's go, let's go home and talk, and a few guys will come later." 〞
Laughing and beating Mo Lin, the two did not become estranged because of the passage of time, but felt more cordial.
"Well, it just so happens that I haven't been to your house for a long time, and I remember when we two squeezed your little bed together, but you actually went to bed in the middle of the night to sleep. 〞
Speaking of the past, Mo Lin couldn't help laughing, the original time carried too much laughter, but also carried too much stubbornness.
"You also said that if you hadn't been beaten by your father, my little bed wouldn't have been laid off in a short time, but now you don't have a chance. 〞
Speaking of this, Wang Ze's eyes flashed with a weird smile.
Mo Lin's words also made Wang Ze fall into the past, and the two chatted while walking, and soon arrived at Wang Ze's house.
When he arrived at Wang Ze's house, Mo Lin finally knew why Wang Ze said just now that he had no chance, because in Wang Ze's house, a woman appeared at this moment, none other than their former classmate, Gao Li.
"I said, you kid actually caught up with our old class flowers, isn't it happy every day now?" 〞
Seeing Gao Li, Mo Lin couldn't help but joke, and his eyes kept glancing in Gao Li's direction.
"Die Mo Lin, be careful if you talk nonsense, I won't be able to spare you. 〞
Hearing Mo Lin's teasing, Gao Li Xing's eyes widened slightly, and she said to Mo Lin with a fierce look.
Looking at Gao Li standing in the distance, Mo Lin couldn't help but sigh, "Hey, it's really a good foundation, the eighteen changes of the female college, and the more she changes, the more she will become a disaster." 〞
While speaking, Mo Lin also pretended to regret it.
"Haha. ... 〞
Seeing Mo Lin's appearance, even Wang Ze on the side laughed.
"Two guys, none of them are good!"
Seeing that even Wang Ze was snickering on the side, Gao Li glanced at the two helplessly and then said.
"I said when did you two stick together, I remember that we were the top of the school at that time, why did other top students fall in love with you. 〞
Looking at the smile on Wang Ze's face, Mo Lin smiled maliciously, with a slight weirdness in that smile.
"Brother Lin, this matter is a long story, let's go into the house first, a small key in a while, the fat man and a few of them are also coming, I heard that you came back last night, and they all want to go to your house." 〞
Hearing Mo Lin's words, Wang Ze's face suddenly became a little strange, but when he saw Gao Li's murderous gaze, he could only smile awkwardly at Mo Lin.
"Who is talking about me?"
As soon as Wang Ze's words fell, several young people came from outside the door, all about the same age as Mo Lin, and looked at Wang Ze standing in the courtyard with a smile on their faces.
"Ha, let's say everyone is here, you guys don't come over to see Brother Lin soon. 〞
"Brother Lin is good. 〞
Suddenly, Xiaojian and the fat people lined up neatly, leaned forward slightly and shouted in unison, everyone's faces were full of smiles.
"Uh, you guys. 〞
Mo Lin, who was a little stunned, looked at those funny guys, his body moved, and then the soles of his feet lifted and kicked at a few people.
"Haha. 〞
Gao Li, who was standing on the side, had already laughed out loud by the actions of these living treasures, and Wang Ze also looked at Mo Lin with a smile on his face.
Seeing Mo Lin raise his feet, the fat man hurriedly dodged to the side, but they seemed to have underestimated Mo Lin, and everyone left a shoe print on their buttocks.
"Wow, Brother Lin turned out to be a master. 〞
Looking at Mo Lin's movements, several people shouted again.
The funny expression instantly amused Mo Lin, these people are from this village, they have all played together since childhood, and it can be said that they grew up together.
Since he left home, he has never been in touch, but he didn't expect that now that he has just returned, these brothers will arrive as soon as possible, which makes him feel that the feelings of his childhood are still real, and he has not become strange because of time.
"Little fat man, did you work in the field in the morning, you see that the ground I just mopped was soiled by you. 〞
In the spacious living room, a group of people sat together, only to see Xiaopang waving his arms hard, telling everyone about his wonderful experience, and Gao Li on the side suddenly said.
Listening to Gao Li's words, everyone followed Gao Li's gaze, and there were two rows of somewhat dazzling footprints behind Xiao Fat at the moment, and on the smooth floor, eye-catching yellow clay shoe prints were extending from outside the gate to the house.
"I said, fatty, where did you go in the morning, how did you get like this? 〞
Looking at Gao Li's somewhat violent face, Wang Ze asked with a smile.
"Don't you say that I forgot, before I came here, I went to a good place, on the construction site of the village to the east of us, and this morning I dug out a huge black stone from the construction site, which was about two meters thick and about seven or eight meters long, as if it had not been at the end of last night's work. 〞
Listening to Wang Ze's words, the fat man hurriedly said, and even the fire-breathing gaze of Gao Li, who was about to go berserk next to him, was directly ignored. When he said the stone, he still had an excited look on his face.
"Isn't it just a relatively large stone, what's so strange about that? This also needs to be fussed. 〞
After the fat man finished speaking, everyone originally thought that what cultural relics would be unearthed, but it turned out to be a stone, which made Mo Lin and the others' interest suddenly drop.
"Hey, don't worry, the stone is estimated to have been washed out by the torrential rain last night, but the most strange thing is that three old monks wearing monk's robes appeared on the construction site early this morning, and are now talking to the person in charge of the construction site. 〞
Seeing the disbelief on the faces of Mo Lin, Wang Ze and the others, the fat man hurriedly shouted loudly.
"You pull it, you, monks, how can we have any temples in this broken place, it is estimated that there are a few fake monks, wearing monks' robes and coming out to cheat money." 〞
Gao Li next to her pouted and said.
"Is there anything strange about that stone?"
Listening to the fat man's words, Mo Lin felt that things may not be as simple as they seemed, generally speaking, if any cultural relics were unearthed on the construction site, the local cultural relics department should be notified as soon as possible, but now there was a monk suddenly, which made Mo Lin feel a little strange.
"I don't know, I was far away, and I could only see a layer of the ground, and now the stone is only about half a meter high. 〞
"Let's do so much about what we do, anyway, it won't affect us, Brother Lin just came back, let's drink him at noon, let's say okay first, no one is allowed to run at that time, we have to drink hard with an open stomach." 〞
Xiao Jian on the side interjected.
"It's still Xiaojian's right, let's not bother so much, it's just a stone, and drinking is the most important thing. 〞
In the following time, Mo Lin chatted with Wang Ze and them before they learned that now the fat man has taken over the family's business, and he has his own business to be busy every day, and the little Jian just now also found a relatively good job, and several other people have more or less something to do.
Looking back at the past, the few of them either went out to drink and fight every day, or wandered around, but they didn't expect that so much has changed now.
"Hehe, we don't have anything to do now, why don't we go to the construction site and have a look, anyway, it's still a while before dinner." 〞
Looking at the time, Mo Lin stood up and said, he was more interested in what the fat man just said, and this interest came from his life in the past three years.
"Hehe, since Brother Lin has spoken, then just take Brother Lin around our place, some old places have disappeared, and if you don't go around, you will probably forget it in the future." 〞
Seeing Mo Lin finish speaking, Wang Ze's curiosity was also aroused.
The construction site was not far from the village where Mo Lin lived, and the two sides were only separated by a road, and everyone soon came to the location that the fat man said.
Before arriving at the construction site, Mo Lin saw the black crowd from a distance, and when everyone heard that the treasure had been dug up on the construction site, they all came out of their homes to watch.
The rumbling sound came from the construction site, some construction machinery was working in an orderly manner, and when Mo Lin and the others squeezed into the crowd with difficulty and came to the position closest to the stone, Mo Lin's eyes showed a strange look.
The old men in monk clothes mentioned by the fat man don't look like those fakes on the street, although the faces of the three old men are old, but their spirits are still strong and not old.
A monk's robe is a little white, and it looks like he has been wearing it for a long time, and at this moment the three old monks are talking to a man in a suit, and the man in the suit seems to be a person in charge of the construction site, with an irritable look on his face.
