Chapter 2 Seeing things and thinking about people and reminiscing about the past

Looking at the heavy rain pouring down from the mountains and forests outside the cave, and the Mushan River that stayed at Tiger Rock, the mood seemed extremely calm. Scenes like this have been experienced several times during his solo outdoor travel adventures.

In fact, he loves the weather. Listening to the sound of rain splashing on the jungle, he slept in the tent at night, but felt more comfortable sleeping. In his opinion, the sound of rain falling is more like a lullaby, which can help him fall asleep faster.

In contrast to the outside, the cave, which had been cleaned and lit with a bonfire, did not feel the chill of the mountain wind. Hanging outdoor lights provide a warm and soft glow that doesn't feel oppressive at all.

On the lighted portable outdoor stove, hazelnut mushrooms picked from the mountains during the day are simmering, and the aroma of chicken stewed mushrooms is already overflowing in the small cave.

Drinking freshly brewed green tea and listening to the songs downloaded from the computer, Mu Shanhe felt that this was a comfortable life. The reason why he loves outdoor adventures and travel may be because he loves the company of the wilderness and jungle in his bones.

Looking at the heavy rain outside the cave, Mu Shanhe said a little helplessly: "I just hope that the sun will shine brightly tomorrow, otherwise if you continue to enter the mountain, I am afraid that your whole body will be wet." The weather in the mountains is really unpredictable! ”

Mu Shanhe, who sighed helplessly, knows the current weather forecast, although it can be very accurate. It is also difficult to accurately predict the weather that changes rapidly over a small scale. Fortunately, in this kind of weather, it comes and goes quickly.

Opened the main dish that had been stewed for almost half an hour, and the fragrance was already strong, Mu Shanhe also looked forward to it: "I haven't eaten such an authentic chicken stew with mushrooms for many years." If you want to eat the freshest hazelnut mushrooms, you may have to come to the mountains and pick them yourself. ”

I found a spoon to scoop up some soup, and after tasting it, Mu Shanhe felt that this was the familiar taste in my memory. In his early years, he achieved financial freedom, and Mu Shanhe's hobbies gradually shifted to the desire for his tongue, and he even spent money to learn from the chef for a period of time.

"Whoever is wronged, don't wronged yourself. People live for a lifetime, who hasn't pursued it? ”

After enjoying the authentic mountain food cooked, standing at the entrance of the cave and listening to the sound of the mountains and forests, the Mushan River did not want to rest for the time being. Although he couldn't see too far at the moment, his eyes were extremely deep.

Although every few years, he would go back to this mountain to see and take a look. But as he grew older, the people and things that carried his childhood memories gradually withered and disappeared. This feeling made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Time flies! In the blink of an eye, I am in my fifties, how can those childhood elders not be old? The last time I stayed here was before I was 16 years old, more than 30 years ago. ”

Mushanhe, who recalled the past, couldn't help but look back at the pair of candles that were still burning in the depths of the cave. As for the lit sandalwood, it is burned clean at the moment. But this scene still felt familiar to him and even very intimate.

"If I hadn't chosen to return to my family at that time, maybe I would have lived an ordinary and ordinary life like those childhood friends in my life. But there are no ifs in life, and there is no chance to start over! ”

For Mu Shanhe, he has not only enjoyed happiness in his life, but also experienced pain and struggle that many people have not experienced. In the words of the Internet, he was deeply affected by his original family, and even used his life to heal.

In the eyes of friends, Mu Shanhe has a good background, and his own conditions are not bad. But to this day, he is still alone. It's not that he can't find a marriage partner, but he has a heartfelt resistance to family and marriage.

When he was young, he had a happy and happy family like the children in Tunli. But when he grew up and became sensible, his father chose to abandon his wife and son and never returned. Immediately afterwards, the mother who was physically and mentally devastated died of depression.

Fortunately, the old man, who is his grandfather, has always given him care and care, making him feel that there are still people in this world. It's a pity that in the year he graduated from junior high school, his elderly grandfather finally died of illness.

When he was dying, the old man was most concerned about him, but at that time he became withdrawn, although he was grateful for his grandfather's protection, but he could never forget the father who betrayed the family and eventually led him to become an orphan.

Ironically, in the end, he returned to his father's family and became the ridiculed illegitimate son of that compound. Becoming more and more paranoid, he was eventually sent into the army by his grandfather, but became a member of the disarmament after a few years.

Transferred to a local area, under the care of his grandfather, he entered a unit that seemed good to others. But people who know his background will still whisper behind his back, ridiculing him for having this job, all because of his illegitimate status.

Feeling humiliated, he resolutely chose to leave his job without pay and start a business despite everyone's opposition. It wasn't until the year of confusion that he finally earned a net worth of hundreds of millions and realized his personal financial freedom ahead of schedule.

When the only grandfather in the family who regarded him as his closest relative, passed away, in the face of those so-called closest relatives, tearing his face to fight for the so-called family inheritance, he finally chose to break with the family and vowed never to set foot in that family again.

But what everyone didn't expect was that not long after he chose to completely sever ties with the family, the father, who was the new speaker of the family, was exposed to corruption and other crimes and was imprisoned.

"In this life, people will face many choices. The direction you choose will also determine the direction of your life. When I was young, I always longed for the world outside the mountains and wanted to break into a new world. When I got old, I found that the fallen leaves would eventually return to the roots! ”

He smiled self-deprecatingly, feeling that the temperature in the mountains was beginning to plummet, and turned around to enter the cave Mushan River, and added a lot of thick dry wood to the bonfire. Seeing that the fire was getting bigger again, and making sure that there was nothing wrong, he turned and went into the tent.

Just as Mushanhe got into his sleeping bag and was about to start resting, a heavy fog suddenly rose in the jungle where the rain was decreasing. As the mist envelops the mountains, it eventually extends into the cavern where the bonfire is still burning.

Mu Shanhe, who had already entered a state of deep sleep, just felt a little cold in his body, shrunk his body and continued to sleep. But what he didn't know was that the mist that drifted through the valley poured into the cave as if attracted by something.

When the sun rose the next day, the entrance to the cave was again obscured by vines. There were messy dead branches and rotten leaves inside, and there was no sign that someone had spent the night in it last night. And Mushanhe, who was supposed to wake up early in the morning, disappeared strangely into the cave that was restored to its original state.

When Mu Shanhe's friend found that he had been missing for many days in the mountain, he hired a professional search and rescue team to enter the mountain, but his whereabouts were never found. In the end, the search and rescue team could only treat him as missing, and the local government also strengthened the control of entering the mountain.

It is extremely ironic that those titular relatives began to fight for his inheritance. However, accompanied by the court, the staff of the National Wills Center read out the will notarized by Mu Shanhe when he was 50 years old.

If one day he dies or disappears, all his estate will be donated to a designated public welfare organization. The investment shares held by it are also held by public welfare organizations, and all the dividends received are donated as charity.

In the face of this result, Mu Shanhe's friends were very pleased, but those so-called relatives who had never been in touch with each other were very angry. Even when he knew that the result was irreversible, he once again denounced Mu Shanhe as a white-eyed wolf who could not be raised.

Sadly, these relatives who denounced Mu Shanhe include his half-brothers and sisters, and even the so-called elders. And his friend didn't understand until this moment that Mu Shanhe made a will in advance, I am afraid that he had expected such a day!

So where is Mushanhe at this time?
