Chapter 317: Staying in the Silent Village, I Happened to Meet the White Fox
After taking a photo with a group of people at the police station and writing a postcard to the old policeman called Brother Liu, and signing his name, Qin Yuan fled and left.
Because if he doesn't leave, he probably won't be able to leave, and the news of his appearance at the police station has already spread ten or ten hundreds, and other police officers have already arrived from other offices.
If the time drags on a little longer, it is estimated that there will be no fewer people from other bureaus who will come to take photos and sign autographs with him, this kind of thing is naturally not what he wants to see, after all, he has only ridden 50 kilometers today, and there is still half of the distance not completed!
After leaving the police station, Qin Yuan turned on the action camera with trepidation, and then continued to start his shooting.
"The group of police comrades just now was so enthusiastic, I almost couldn't get out, it was too thrilling, it seems that this kind of good thing of being invited to dinner in the future is better to do less.
First, it will cause trouble to others, and secondly, it is really inconvenient, if I had left a little later, I guess there would have been a lot of people gathering at the police station, and it would not be good if something went wrong. Qin Yuan muttered to himself.
"But I am very grateful to the two police uncles for kindly taking me to a fragrant lunch, it tastes so good, now that I am full, full of strength, it is time to continue on my way."
However, it is certainly impossible to reach my intended destination today, which is still more than 150 kilometers away from my current location.
With this condition, I'll be satisfied if I can ride another 50 kilometres before dark, so I'll be able to ride another 100 kilometres tomorrow.
So I also have to find a campsite tonight, hoping to find an abandoned house with a fire kang like before, so that I can have a good rest tonight. ”
Qin Yuan looked at the lens of the action camera while riding and said to himself, but he didn't feel bored, he had been riding thousands of kilometers all the way, and he had long been accustomed to this kind of life.
Cycling is a lonely process, and the beautiful scenery and interesting things he photographs are only a small part of the ride, and what he shows is only a small part of it.
So this will give people the illusion that riding is very fun, but in fact it is not, most people can't bear this long-term loneliness, and will eventually choose to give up.
As for the reason why Qin Yuan was able to hold on for so long, it was because he had enjoyed everything he should have enjoyed in his previous life, and he was tired of that kind of flowery life.
The second reason is that his current riding is not only a kind of cycling, but also an evolutionary path that can make him stronger, so he will naturally not give up easily.
"I didn't expect that the road conditions on this road were okay, at least I didn't need to get down to push the cart, and it seems that I can complete the scheduled plan today." Qin Yuan looked at the road without any snow and said with satisfaction.
There is no one around him, he feels very relaxed, the whole person is a lot happier, he has been riding alone for a long time, he is not afraid of loneliness now, but he enjoys his time alone.
He was riding and humming a song, and the whole person was as cheerful as a bird, and time passed in such a relaxed and comfortable state, and before he knew it, it was afternoon.
"It's not early, it's time to look for the camp tonight, this afternoon because the road conditions are good, so the set goal was completed ahead of schedule, so now we can start looking for the camp."
Qin Yuan was searching around, looking at the camera and saying, the whole person seemed very busy, after all, a good camp is related to whether he can get a good night's sleep tonight, so he is very concerned.
"I didn't find a suitable campsite as far as the eye could see, but it doesn't matter, I just saw on the satellite map that there is a small village five kilometers ahead, I may be able to find a suitable place to stay in that place, don't talk nonsense, just ride over it."
As he spoke, Qin Yuan sped up his ride, and it didn't take long for him to arrive at the small village he had seen on the satellite map.
But to his surprise, the village was unpopular, and the silence was terrible, as if there were no inhabitants.
To test his suspicions, he parked his bicycle at the entrance of the village and walked into the village while taking pictures with his action camera.
This village in the middle of the mountains and forests is not large, there are only seven or eight houses, but when he looks over, he does not see a single smoke, which means that there is no one living in it.
You must know that the winter in the Northeast is very cold, and it is naturally impossible for such a thing as central heating to happen in a small village in the mountains and forests.
In the countryside of the Northeast, there is only one way to heat the house, that is, to burn firewood or charcoal by yourself, so it is very simple to tell whether there is someone living in a house, just look at whether the chimney of his house is smoking.
Of course, it is okay to see if there are lights in the house at night, but now he can see that basically all the chimneys are not smoking, which means that the village is basically free of villagers.
Looking at the cold village, Qin Yuan's heart was a little uncomfortable.
"The village seems to be uninhabited, very deserted, and to be honest, I can't help but feel sad when I see such a scene.
I remember when I was a child, the village in my hometown was very lively, and every day the chickens and dogs barked, except in the evening and noon, there was no quiet time at all.
At that time, the countryside was like a paradise, with strange traffic, chickens and dogs smelling each other, among which the people were planted back and forth, men and women were dressed like outsiders, with yellow hair hanging down, and enjoying themselves.
That is the living state of our Longguo people for thousands of years, but with the continuous progress of industrialization, the traditional way of life belonging to our Longguo people has disappeared, and many villages have existed in name only, and some have directly become ruins.
Of course, I'm not saying that this is a mistake or anything, after all, this is a stage that the times will inevitably go through.
I'm just just feeling emotion and regret, and I feel a little sad every time I see this kind of uninhabited village.
For me, I'm just a visitor to this village, but for some, it's my hometown, or my childhood I can't go back to!
Okay, it's a bit too much, and it's a bit off topic, so let's see if there are any houses in this village that can be lived, and I'll spend the night here tonight! ”
Qin Yuan adjusted his mentality and continued to wander around the small village, and at this moment, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a house at the back of the village, because he found that there was curling smoke coming out of the chimney of that house, which meant that the house was inhabited.
This couldn't help but make him a little excited, after all, he just thought that a whole village had been abandoned, but now he found that there were still residents in this village, this kind of unexpected discovery is always more surprising!
"Have you seen it, there is smoke coming out of the last house in this village, which means that there are people living in the house, and I will visit and see if I can borrow a useless house to live in."
As Qin Yuan spoke, he walked towards the house, only to see that the house was about 100 meters away from the entrance of the village, which was still quite far.
And just as he was about to approach the house, a rapid dog barking sounded, which immediately made Qin Yuan come to his senses.
Listening to the barking of the dog, Qin Yuan not only did not look impatient at all, but a happy smile appeared on his face, and there was a hint of intoxication between his eyebrows.
"This dog barks so kindly! This is the countryside in my memory! yes, that's the feeling, it's amazing. ”
Qin Yuan was talking to himself, and he had already come to the door of the house, and the dog barking was made by an old yellow dog, which is often called an earth dog.
At this moment, the old yellow dog looked at Qin Yuan with a wary face, and stood on the snow in the courtyard at the door of the house and barked at him fiercely, as if he was torso for this uninvited guest.
Seeing this, Qin Yuan smiled and did not leave, but stood quietly outside the fence wall at the entrance of the courtyard, ready to ask the owner of the house.
But before he could open it, the door of the house was pulled open from the inside, and a slumped old woman poked her head out and looked at him.
At the same time, there was also a white furry creature that quickly came out of the house and came to the old yellow dog's side, and then grinned at Qin Yuan with the same vigilant face.
Looking at the white stuffed creature that suddenly appeared in front of him, Qin Yuan's face couldn't help but show a look of shock, because he found that the white stuffed creature turned out to be a white fox.
You must know that there is no white fox in the territory of the dragon country, because the white fox mainly lives in some cold areas, and it is more common in the coastal areas around the Arctic Circle, and this small animal can live well in the ice field area of more than minus 50 degrees.
The reason why there are white foxes in the Dragon Kingdom now is that most of them are domesticated arctic foxes in captivity, which are imported from outside.
However, it was precisely because the white fox was raised in captivity that it appeared in such a remote mountain village at this moment, which made Qin Yuan feel even more surprised.
In addition to the shock, he was even more surprised by the scene in front of him, he didn't expect that the door opened and came out of an elderly grandmother.
Just looking at the grandmother's rickety back, he felt that the other party was at least over 80 years old.
It's a bit strange to be living in a village with no one at such an age.
In addition, now that the sky is slowly getting dark, it makes the scene in front of me feel like a thriller.
The silent countryside, the old woman, the white fox, the old yellow dog, these elements are added together, if you are an ordinary person, it will be estimated that you will already be sweating.
Not to mention ordinary people, even Qin Yuan couldn't help but be a little cautious.
However, as a materialist warrior, he didn't believe much in the so-called body and ghost theory, so after a while, he adjusted.
Then he said very politely: "Grandma, I came by bicycle from a long distance, and I want to stay here tonight, I will come to say hello to you in advance, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings." ”
Qin Yuan originally came to borrow a house to live, after all, the countryside is large, and generally a family will have quite a lot of houses, and some houses will be used as a firewood room or a utility room or something, so as long as there is one, he can save a tent tonight.
But at this moment, looking at the old grandmother in front of me at such an age, it is estimated that her ears are not good, and her legs and feet should not be convenient.
In this way, he thought about it and decided to forget it, so as not to bother the old woman in front of him, he would directly find a place against the wall to set up a tent, which could block the wind.
He had a stove anyway, so it didn't matter if he continued to sleep in the wild tonight.
But what he didn't expect was that when he said that he had come from a long way away, the old woman immediately walked out of the house with a cane.
Seeing this, Qin Yuan was startled, in this winter, the yard was full of snow, if he accidentally fell, it would be terrible.
So he immediately opened the fence door, and then walked briskly, and said as he went, "Granny, be careful, don't fall, or I will be guilty." ”
Seeing that Qin Yuan opened the door directly and came in, the old yellow dog and the white fox rushed towards him fiercely, as if they wanted to bite him.
Seeing this, Qin Yuan immediately activated his animal communication skills, and immediately used his consciousness to transmit a voice in their minds.
"I have no ill intentions, you don't need to treat me as an enemy, I'm beware of my grandmother falling, if you don't welcome me, I'll leave later, now be quiet, okay?"
Hearing the voice that suddenly sounded in his head, the old yellow dog and the white fox were like lightning strikes, and their faces couldn't help but have an anthropomorphic look of shock, and they didn't know what to do for a while, so they looked at Qin Yuan quietly, and they really stopped barking.
At this time, the old grandmother muttered in her mouth: "Little doll, there is no one in the village this winter, I still live here, I have a vacant house at home, you can live here with me!" ”
Qin Yuan didn't expect that this elderly grandmother's ears were so good that he could hear him speak.
And at this time, he understood why the old lady in front of him came out, this was to treat herself as a guest and plan to greet him!
After figuring out this, his heart couldn't help but be very moved, he didn't expect the old man in front of him to be so hospitable to him, this kindness is too precious.
