004 Up the hill
"What are you thinking, you didn't respond to a few shouts, you still wander when you walk, be careful of falling into the mud!"
Suddenly, Li Ping'an's shoulder was patted from behind, and he turned around to see that it was Zhang Xiaoshan, the second eldest child of his aunt's family.
Aunt Li Dafang married Zhang Yu, who also fled the famine and came to Xiaochen Village, and had two sons and a daughter, the eldest son Zhang Dashan, the youngest son Zhang Xiaoshan, and the daughter Zhang Yueer are the second, of which Zhang Xiaoshan is the same year as Li Ping'an, only two months older than Li Ping'an.
is not only an old watch, but also a partner who has played together in the same village, Li Ping'an and Zhang Xiaoshan have a very good relationship, so they angrily revealed: "It's better for me to fall all over the mud than for your dog to gnaw on the mud!" ”
Zhang Xiaoshan was not to be outdone, "My eight-year-old dog gnawed mud was said to be until now, then you fell into the mud at the age of thirteen, and I laughed at you for the rest of your life." ”
"The problem is that I haven't fallen yet!" Li Ping'an shook his head, smug, and then asked a few questions in a row, "What are you doing with such a heavy rain?" Where did you go to come back? Aren't you afraid that my aunt will beat you up? ”
Zhang Xiaoshan's father is a hunter, so when he settled down, he chose to be at the foot of the north mountain, and Li Ping'an wanted to go up the north mountain this time, so he had to pass by Zhang Xiaoshan's house. It was not strange that he would meet Zhang Xiaoshan, but it was strange that he would meet Zhang Xiaoshan halfway.
However, Zhang Xiaoshan didn't answer and asked: "Then what are you doing here?" ”
"I went with my dad to the creek to see the water level." Li Ping'an replied.
Zhang Xiaoshan: "Then I'll go to the creek with my father to see the water level!" ”
Li Ping'an: "Why didn't I see you just now?" ”
Zhang Xiaoshan: "I haven't seen you either!" ”
Li Ping'an: "Where's your father?" ”
Zhang Xiaoshan: "Where's your father?" ”
"! Zhang Xiaoshan, you must not be telling the truth! Li Ping'an reacted, scolded, and after thinking about it, he said in a cheap tone, "Tell me honestly, are you worried about your little daughter-in-law and go to her house to see her?" ”
Zhang Xiaoshan straightened his chest, "Yes, I'm just going to Peach Blossom's house, what's wrong?" ”
With his understanding of Li Ping'an, the more he tried to cover it up, the more energetic this product became, Li Ping'an didn't necessarily have to ask what to ask, but he would definitely ridicule people. It's better to say it generously.
Hehe, everyone is thirteen years old, and they are relatives and cousins, I have a daughter-in-law, don't you!
Zhang Xiaoshan was overjoyed, Li Ping'an read the subtext from his playful eyes, pouted with disdain in his heart, wanted to divert the topic, and thought of the tragic fate of Zhang Xiaoshan's future daughter-in-law Chen Taohua, so he asked more: "With such a heavy rain, is Taohua's family okay?" ”
"It's a big deal, there are four or five leaks, don't I go home and call my father and my eldest brother to help fix it." As he spoke, Zhang Xiaoshan slapped his thigh hard, "Ouch, I'm a mother, what am I talking to you about here!" ”
didn't wait for Li Ping'an to speak, so he hurried home. The corners of Li Ping'an's mouth twitched, shook his head, and quickened his pace slightly, if he didn't go faster, if he met his uncle, he wouldn't think about going up the mountain.
No danger from the uncle's house in front of the door, then walk about 20 meters to go up the mountain, this mountain because in the back of the village, the village people have always been shouting the back of the house, the village people chop firewood or something generally come to this mountain more, so the road up the mountain is relatively easy to walk, do not go too deep and generally will not encounter any beasts.
Li Ping'an looked up at the sky, there should be no beasts running out on this rainy day. Looking back at the village in the rain, it was only the rain blocking his view, and he couldn't see clearly.
In the evening, he likes to look at the village from a high place, and the afterglow of the setting sun is covered with sunset, the sky is full of sunset, the birds are returning to their nests, the smoke is curling, the traffic is strange, the chickens are crowing and the dogs are barking, it is easy to let people's minds empty. Most of the people here live in poverty, but they are still calm and stable.
It's just that today may be due to this heavy rainstorm, or maybe it is his inner restlessness, and the blur of the village shrouded by the heavy rain makes him feel the eerie and raging aura like the dance of electric snakes.
Just thinking about it, there was a sudden light in front of him, and after a fleeting thunder, Li Ping'an was frightened, and secretly said that he was really disgusted with his life, and he went up the mountain to a high place on a thunderstorm day.
Taking a deep breath to calm the tumbling thoughts, Li Ping'an bent over and avoided the trees as much as possible and continued to walk up. In fact, he didn't know where it was relatively safe, he had never encountered a natural disaster himself, but in his previous life, he had read some escape manuals for dealing with natural disasters when he was deserting in school. But he didn't remember those knowledge points too clearly in his previous life, let alone that he lived for thirteen years in this life.
Can't remember, can't remember at all.
He only knew that it was certainly right to go to a high place when the flood came, but he was also afraid of disasters such as mudslides and landslides, so what kind of location should he find to stay away from these disasters as much as possible? It's not that he's greedy, he just wants to be as good as possible and prepare a little more in advance, if they really encounter a natural disaster, the probability of them surviving is a little greater.
The vague memories of his past life in his mind could no longer help, he could only rely on metaphysics, he was scurrying around like a headless fly, and he felt carefully which position he felt a little less uneasy in his heart.
When he came to the other side of the mountain, he suddenly felt a sense of relief, he was stunned for a moment, and then looked around ecstatically, only to find that this was a relatively gentle and empty hillside.
At this time, a line of words appeared in his mind, and he blinked, okay, it turns out that not only the end of science is metaphysics, but the end of metaphysics is also science.
Noting down this location, Li Ping'an returned the same way, and after returning to the foot of the mountain, he was truly relieved, only he and God knew how worried he was about being struck by a lightning bolt when he was on the mountain.
"Thank you, thank you, if there is a real flood, if my whole family survives, I will definitely give you a whole pig at the end of the year!" Li Ping'an straightened up and arched his hand towards the sky.
No kidding, if there is a real flood and he and his family can survive, God will play a vital role.
When passing by his aunt's house, Li Ping'an first glanced inside, saw that there was no one, and hurriedly ran over. He didn't dare to let his aunt see it, it was true that his aunt loved them, but if he really wanted to fight, his subordinates would be merciless.
I heard his father say that when they fled from the south, the aunt, who was only nineteen years old at the time, was a ruthless person who fought with a knife with a hoe, and the key was to kill the other party with a hoe and rob the other party's weapons.
If the aunt finds out that he came down from the mountain at this time, tsk, he can imagine that the aunt will definitely beat him until he can't get out of bed for a few days, lest he run around.
It was another journey without danger or danger, Li Ping'an returned to the fork in the road, and without hesitation at this time, he walked directly in the direction of home, thinking that it was time to buy food next, as for how to persuade his father, he had to ask if the crops in the field were affected now.
Regardless of whether there is a flood or not, it is always a bad thing to have food, and he has already thought of several sets of arguments for different situations.
It's just that before he reached the fence wall of his house, he heard the sound of his little sister howling, and the cry overshadowed the noisy rainstorm. He chuckled in his heart.
