Sheet 134 The estuary and the old street
The name of Hekou County in southern Yunnan Province originates from two rivers that intersect with each other, the main river channel is the big red river that flows to the country of Yue, originates in the eastern foothills of Ailao Mountain in central Yunnan, it is called the Yuanjiang River in China, and the red river is called in the territory of Yue, and the other is the Nanxi River in China, which belongs to the boundary river between China and Vietnam, Hekou County is located on the north bank of the Nanxi River, and across the river is the famous old street of the trade port of the country. As the fastest-growing port city in Vietnam, Lao Cai has begun to take on the prototype of a third-rate city, with high-rise buildings rising from the ground, proudly and proudly showing its transformation and development.
More than 30 years ago, the old street, broken walls, mourning all over the wilderness, the river bank side of the wind and rain like a cannonball, shaking the soul of every old street people, until 30 years later, the memory of the old street people, it seems that with the rise of the high-rise buildings and ice away from the past, with the reform and opening up of the country, the comprehensive national strength continues to rise, the hatred buried in the hearts of the people of the old street has become more and more profound. On the surface, the exchanges between Lao Cai and Hekou are calm, high-level visits between China and Vietnam are becoming more frequent, and the number of people leaving the country for non-governmental economic exchanges and tourism is rising. However, secretly it has already been turbulent, some extremists in Vietnam have been instigated by right-leaning and pro-American forces, and the first wave of enthusiasm has risen higher and higher, they have surrounded Chinese factories and enterprises, and even more have directly launched personal attacks against the Chinese, many Chinese enterprises investing in Vietnam have a kind of panic that the cold winter is coming, enterprises have withdrawn investment, factories are closed, and at the same time that China and Vietnam are shouting peace slogans, the sword of Damocles hidden behind peace has been quietly sacrificed.
The most intuitive manifestation of this turbulent scene is in the defense of the ports of the two countries; for a long time, due to the intricate ethnic problems in the border areas, many ethnic groups have lived across the border, and the situation of having countries without borders has always existed. In addition, most of the border areas are crossed by high mountains, waterways are crisscrossed, and there are countless cross-border trails for border people to come and go. Brother Hu, a senior smuggler, knows the situation at the border well, if in normal times, the Nanxi River where the dragon and snake walk will not be so quiet, those border people who live across the border, go back and forth between the two countries like a leisurely stroll, casually get a canoe, pay attention to some of the bamboo rafts, from the north bank to the south bank just ten minutes, no one will follow the rules to go through the exit procedures, through the national port entry and exit personnel, most of them are some sightseeing tourists, although the number is quite a lot, but compared with the border people who freely enter and exit between the two rivers, the number does not occupy much advantage。 But today's Nanxi River, quiet and frightening, Brother Hu smoked three cigarettes in succession, and then resolutely said to me, "This trip, whether you live or die is all up to the fate of heaven, Sister Hua and a girl can flow through the river, we don't have to be too nervous, in a word, strategically despise the enemy, tactically we must pay attention" , After he finished saying this, he jumped and fell on the bed, the tiger baby scholar followed him, but he fell in embarrassment, this kid just pretended to be a chic jump, which has a lot of flirtatious ingredients, but it is a pity that the tiger is not an anti-dog, and it is a joke. Brother Tiger knocked on the tiger baby's head, and said with a stern smile, "Stinky boy, I haven't learned to walk, so I learned to run first", the tiger baby rubbed his head with a depressed face, and then said "I want you to care" , Brother Tiger immediately glared at the tiger baby when he heard it, and was so frightened that the kid climbed to the shore with a wow, how could Brother Tiger let him go, and lifted the tiger baby up with a light grab, and then stuffed it into the cabin behind him, the tiger baby opened his teeth and claws, causing the Yue Guo girl on the shore to laugh, and the previous tense and depressing atmosphere immediately disappeared without a trace after her laughter, "A smile is a country, and then a smile is a city" , It should be this kind of woman, the purity of her body, in this flashy and restless world is too rare, that disgusting big-bellied man, who has read countless women, has become a fiery eye, and his eyes are really not ordinary poison.
"Ah Xia, you get on the boat first" Compared with the reckless tiger baby, Ma Luo is much more gentlemanly, it turns out that the little girl's name is Ah Xia, this kid moves very quickly, and quietly gets other people's names. Ah Xia smiled at Ma Luo, and then like an elegant butterfly, she lightly boarded the tent boat, and the tiger baby hiding in the cabin quietly showed half of her head at this time, and his face was full of jealousy, envy and hatred. Brother Tiger looked at his embarrassment, couldn't help laughing, and was so frightened that the tiger baby swooped back into the cabin.
"Let's go, boy, you are a good man, you are really good at calculating people, "those who work hard govern people, and those who work hard govern people", that tiger-headed kid, I must hate you to death in my heart" Before my words fell, Ma Luo frowned, and then asked with a puzzled face, "Why does he hate me, and I haven't done anything to hurt him, you say that I count people, what does this sentence mean"?
"You really don't know?" I asked tentatively, Ma Luo's words made me a little uncertain, with a smart head like him, there were times when he was stupid.
"I don't understand, I don't know what you're talking about" Ma Luo's sad face made me breathe a sigh of relief, if he deliberately calculated the little fat man, that kind of mind would be too terrible, it seems that God is fair, gave him the highest IQ, but gave him the lowest EQ.
"Hehe, it's not a big deal, it's that I think too much, there is a saying I want to tell you, "Brothers are like siblings, women are like clothes", this sentence is right, but it's not right, when you are fine, think about it more, there will be a different harvest, let's go, boy, there is time for you to think on the road" I gently pushed the contemplative horse lock, he shook his head at me, and then got on the boat with a confused face.
Brother Tiger doesn't seem to approve of what I just said, from the corners of his slightly upturned mouth can be seen clearly, after the turmoil on Toka Farm, he is afraid that it is difficult to believe in the righteousness of his brother anymore, there is a saying that "the deeper the love, the deeper the injury", it is not an exaggeration to apply it to him, he has always regarded the old monkey master as a brother, and the first thing that came to mind on the way to escape was Hou Ye, but he was stabbed in the back with a black knife, not so much that he did not want to believe in the righteousness of his brother anymore, but that he did not dare to believe it anymore.
Brother Hu struggled on a pole, and the boat drove briskly towards the overgrown border of the Yue Kingdom, and in the grass on the bank of the river, there were several corpses full of sin lying scattered, and after a few minutes, the tent boat disappeared into the lush aquatic grass.
