Wang Defa began to slow down the speed of digging his own graves, and his main job recently is to take Lao Wan and train Lao Wan, so that he can do the order and prohibit, and can cooperate with himself, which is the result that Wang Defa is most willing to see.

The arrival of Lao Wan solved the reality of Wang Defa's loneliness in the apricot forest, and when someone spoke, he felt that the time was not so long. Lao Wan is going around in the forest when he has nothing to do, and from time to time he will shoot down some sparrows, Wang Defa and Lao Wan will make a fire to roast sparrow meat to eat, although they can't plug between their teeth, but both of them eat with relish. Wang Defa will also dance happily like Lao Wan.

Recently, Wang Defa did not start to dig the grave, mainly because the apricot blossoms are now in full bloom, and during the day, Wang Defa asked his woman to find a sister to help level the flowers. Where there are many women, there are many rights and wrongs, and it just so happens to use these to work on people's mouths, wouldn't it be better to help him cover people's ears and eyes, this will take a few days, everyone can see it clearly, Wang Defa is digging time in the apricot orchard.

Wang Defa is busy at three o'clock every day, before going out to the apricot orchard in the morning, he will first go to bring Lao Wan with him, and the two of them will eat some dry food in the garden at noon, and then come back together in the evening. Lao Wan also behaved decently, and he was not idle for a moment looking for birds everywhere in the garden. Since coming to Wang Defa's apricot orchard, he himself feels that his slingshot skills have improved, after all, there are more birds on the mountain than in the team.

Once Lao Wan was pulling a slingshot and aiming at the birds in the tree, Wang Defa suddenly shouted: "Lao Wan! The bird was scared away, Lao Wan's temper came up all of a sudden, walked quickly to Wang Defa, picked up his fist and prepared to fight, Wang Defa knew that Lao Wan didn't have the courage, and he didn't move, after Lao Wan calmed down, he babbled for a while, and warned Wang Defa not to disturb him to fight the bird in the future.

Lao Wan has been helping Wang Defa for more than two months, and although Wang Defa has not broken ground in the past two months, he has already made a plan in his heart. In the past, when he was alone, he had already arrived home before dark at night, and the back mountain was twenty minutes' walk from his house, and if he didn't go back after dark, the twenty-minute road would be difficult to walk, and there were several tombs on the river dam that had been washed out by the river water on the riverbank, when there was a lot of water in the river before, he couldn't see it at all, but now the water is getting less and less, and it can be seen all year round, and the wind and sun are blowing, and it looks even more eerie and terrifying, Wang Defa is an intellectual again, and he is a little scared in his heart.

But it's different when Lao Wan comes, at least a companion. In two months, Wang Defa also believed that Lao Wan had been blinded by him, and he believed that if he gradually began to dig graves, Lao Wan would not be suspicious.

"Lao Wan, let's go back a little later tonight, you wait for me." Wang Defa said.

"I'm hungry, I want to go back early, I'm hungry, I want to go back early!" Lao Wan shouted.

"If you're hungry, you can eat the buns I brought in your bag, it's enough for you to eat, and when I'm done, let's go together, you have to leave early, and I won't give you this month's salary."

"Eat steamed buns, don't go, eat steamed buns!"

The weather is good today, and Wang Defa wants to take this opportunity to observe the moment when the sun sets, where it shines on this mountain. Then he has some points in his heart. Wang Defa walked around the apricot orchard with a shovel to dig up the weeds.

After digging for a while, Wang Defa sat paralyzed on the hillside and filled a pot of cigarettes, watching the sun slowly fall, he also regularly took a deep breath, and then spit it out. With the smoke rings in the background of the setting sun, and the chimneys of the village that can be seen in the distance are already rising green smoke, all this looks like a picture of tranquility.

The surroundings were quieter, only some birds could be heard, bats were already hovering overhead, and the sound of Lao Wan nibbling and mixing his mouth. Wang Defa didn't dare to be stunned, staring intently at the sun that was about to set.

He looked at the place that had been dug by him, at the higher part of this hillside, and then at the position of the current sun, Wang Defa basically understood in his heart that this point where the sun shines in the morning is relatively high, and the last rays of afterglow when the sun sets may be below the position in the morning. didn't give Wang Defa a little more time to think, once the sunset touched the falling West Mountain, it would quickly hide, Wang Defa quickly got up and carried a shovel to the only little sunshine left.

Wang Defa stood where the sunlight disappeared, dug a mark with a shovel, patted the soil on his buttocks and shouted: "Lao Wan, go, go home." ”

"Lao Wan, you will also bring a shovel tomorrow, and we will loosen the soil in the garden together, do you hear?" Wang Defa sent it to Lao Wan to settle down.

"I, my family, I don't have a spade." Lao Wan didn't know how to answer what Wang Defa said in one sentence. Wang De sent a letter to Lao Wan to say this, every family in the team buys farm tools for their families according to their heads, and Lao Wan will shoot a bird one day, so there is no need to prepare a shovel for him.

After saying this, Wang Defa regretted it, saying the same as not saying it, he vaguely remembered that there was a good and useless shovel in the garage room at home. That's it, if you can find it, you will bring it to Lao Wan tomorrow, if you don't have it, forget it, so as not to make Lao Wan's family feel that Lao Wan has done heavy work and cause unnecessary trouble.

Sending Lao Wan home, Wang Defa went home and walked towards the shelf garage first thing when he entered the door, he really remembered correctly, a shovel that was about to rust was tied to the beam of the room, and the shovel rod looked like it was about to rot, can you try it tomorrow. Wang Defa hasn't paid much attention to family affairs recently, but fortunately, his woman can still deal with it, and the three dolls have not had anything to worry about.

At this point, Wang Defa is very satisfied with his own woman, a home with a woman is a home. In the whole team, if the woman of any family is gone, or runs away, and never comes back, it will be laughed at by everyone, and the family will be scattered. Wang Defa has always wondered why women have a very high position in the family, why do they have the idea of patriarchy over old women.

After a few mouthfuls of food in a hurry, Wang Defa went to sleep on the kang, stopped working for more than two months, which means that there is no money for more than two months, thinking of starting tomorrow, Wang Defa is still very excited, watching people lying on the kang, but he can't sleep for a while.

Early the next morning, after drinking cans of tea with steamed buns, Wang Defa went out with the shovel prepared for Lao Wan. In two months, Lao Wan also developed a habit of waiting for Wang Defa at the door at the time. Wang Defa gave the shovel to Lao Wan and asked him to carry it himself, Lao Wan was unwilling, and after carrying the shovel, he didn't have a slingshot in his hand. Wang Defa can't say anything about this fool, and he also feels that it is pointless to fight with a fool, he carries a shovel all the way, and he doesn't say anything to Lao Wan, what else can he say to Lao Wan?

After arriving, Wang Defa took out his shovel from the garden room, and then instructed Lao Wan to come to the place where he had marked yesterday.

"Lao Wan, today you will cooperate with me to dig a tree pit here, and move the apricot tree that is blocking the road in front of us here. Do you hear that? Wang Defa shouted loudly.

"I, I won't, dig."

"You don't need to dig, I'll dig, you pour the soil I dug out into the basket to the side, the basket is not big, not heavy, I don't believe you can try it." As he spoke, Wang Defa raised his shovel and filled the bamboo basket with soil.

"Here, mention the side poured, try!"

Lao Wan held the basket with two hands, and fell to the side slowly, but he could lift it, but he didn't know how long he could hold on.

Wang Defa dug carefully, Lao Wan struggled to pour the excavated soil, several times Wang Defa asked Lao Wan to pour the soil, only to see Lao Wan on the other side of the garden concentrating on hunting birds.

At first, there was no gain, and Wang Defa, who had experience, was not in a hurry, and when it was almost dark, he packed up his tools and took Lao Wan home.

But for several days, Wang Defa didn't see anything, not even a big stone was dug out, more and more soil was piled up, and the pit was dug deeper and deeper, but what about things? Slowly, Wang Defa was also anxious, judging from the excavation of the jade and the three-legged bottle, the place where the sun set seemed to be a little wrong, and he began to wonder if the location was wrong, or there was no tomb at all. But the guidance given by Lao Yin and Yang should not be deceitful, Wang Defa still believes that there must be something here.

If it is given to a normal person, digging a tree pit like this, the ghost will not believe it, in less than a week's effort, this pit is almost one person deep, Wang Defa also took a high-legged chair from home to facilitate him to go up and down the pit.

dug to such an extent, but there was no movement, Wang Defa was completely anxious. Every time he looked back and saw Lao Wan like a person who was fine, he was angry. I dug hard by myself, Lao Wan is good, and I know how to hunt birds with my two hundred yuan a day. Angry, Wang Defa can't do anything about him. What's the use of being tight with fools?

Finally, when there was still nothing coming out after the second week of digging, Wang De became angry. One day, he climbed out of the deep pit he insisted on digging with difficulty, and sat on the soft soil at the mouth of the pit, tired and didn't want to say a word. He drank all the water in the turtle in one go, and after a while, he saw Lao Wan looking at him stupidly.

Wang Defa yelled: "Lao Wan, go down, go down and dig for me!" Unload your dog's leg without going down. ”

Lao Wan was frightened, Wang Defa had never said this, Lao Wan trembled and walked to the mouth of the pit, the pit was deep and looked at Lao Wan scared. He first lay down at the mouth of the pit, then slowly slid along the wall of the pit to the high-legged stool in the pit, and then got off the stool to the bottom of the pit.

Wang Defa was originally angry, but who knew that Lao Wan was frightened and confused and took it seriously, he watched Lao Wan digging clumsily above, and in the small pit, Lao Wan's awkward movements looked particularly out of place.
