Chapter 1: A Healing Journey

Next Chapter

In the darkness, a little silver light emerged, flickering, like fireflies in a summer night, the more you watched, the more they appeared! endlessly, as if to bury people.

This little bit of silver light gathered in the darkness, outlining a beautiful face, and she smiled, her lips lightly opened, as if she was saying something, but she couldn't hear a word.

Suddenly, a pair of ghostly lights lit up behind the beauty, and the beauty showed a panicked expression.

The "booming ——!" shook the mountains for a while, and the face of the silver-glittering beauty was shattered.

There was a sudden heartbeat, and it was difficult to breathe.

"You...... Come here......" A vicissitudes of life and a terrifying voice suddenly sounded in my head, making people feel a headache.

Guan Kuai suddenly opened his eyes and realized that he was already on the edge of the bed, and he was about to fall off the top bunk if he turned it over more.

Although the air conditioner was on in the bedroom, Guan Kou was sweating profusely. It's all because the dream that made him unable to distinguish between truth and falsehood just now made his heart beat faster, and the feeling of almost suffocation has not disappeared after more than a minute.

Guan Kuai sat up, his head aching. He closed his eyes and thought back to the face of the beautiful woman in the dream just now, but for some reason, the appearance of his ex-girlfriend Jin Zhi appeared in his mind.

Although the name Jin Zhi is so cheesy that it looks like a joke, all the boys who know her in the school covet it, and the girls are all jealous. Therefore, when Jin Zhi suddenly said that he wanted to fall in love with him, it really made him confused for a while.

With this confusion, he was not able to resist Jin Zhi's "offensive" after all, after all, Jin Zhi is not only outstanding in appearance, graceful in figure, but also a rich second generation, proper Bai Fumei, but sticking to chase him such an orphan who has no family background and was brought up by his adoptive parents, who can stand this!?

However, after two months of "dating", Jin Zhi decisively dumped him. It was only then that he realized that he was nothing more than a toy that the golden branch used to pass the boring time. This annoyed him and made him a laughing stock for everyone.

Damn, why do you think of this terrible girl!

Guan Kuai slammed his fist into his thigh and fell back onto the pillow.

It's been three months since he broke up with Jin Zhi, and he can't let himself indulge in this kind of emotion anymore, so he should go out for a good break! Anyway, it's about to be a summer vacation, and he doesn't want to go back to stay with his adoptive parents for two months! What's more, there is a "sister" at home who takes pleasure in teasing him.

His younger sister, Guan Shanshan, is three years younger than him and is in her second year of high school this year. Since his sister was born, he hasn't had a good day. It wasn't until he was twelve years old that his sister "inadvertently" revealed that he was an adopted orphan, and Sekigami never lived true happiness again.

Although Guan Ai wants to know who he is and why his parents don't want him anymore, these are not the problems he needs to solve most urgently, what he needs to solve most is how to escape from the current family. Although he was young, he knew a truth, if he wanted to leave this family, he must first have money. So, from that time on, he began to do odd jobs outside the home, carefully saving every penny.

It was only later that he was admitted to university, but his adoptive parents refused to pay for his tuition, so he had no choice but to take out a loan to study by himself, and his living expenses could only be earned by working in his spare time! Every day at lunch and dinner, he would work as a part-time worker at the fast food restaurant at the school gate, and at night he would take orders to draw comic portraits for people, and a big head would only cost five or ten yuan.

Seeing that he was so diligent (pitiful), the school teacher would introduce him to some illustration or design work from time to time, and in this way, he saved money sporadically, and with the help of frugality, he also saved a five-figure deposit. It's just that in the two months of dating Jin Zhi, this meager savings quickly bottomed out.

I opened my phone and checked my balance, and there were more than 2,000 left, so it's no problem to travel on a budget! But where to go?

I was thinking about it, and suddenly I felt a tingling pain in my brain, and at the same time, a message popped up: Zhelong Mountain, with one of the few existing ancient cottages - Black Tiger Village, the most primitive natural features, invite you to enjoy the beautiful scenery. The picture accompanying the tweet is picturesque, and the night sky is full of stars, like the dream just now. Think of yourself spending all day in this cold city of steel and concrete, and it is better to go to the mountains to escape the heat, and see the real starry sky! instead of those neon nights.

After making up his mind, Guan Pass suddenly had an inexplicable feeling of comfort in his heart, and turned over and fell asleep again.

Sitting on the westbound coach, the mood that had been suppressed for a long time suddenly brightened. In order to save money, you can hike if you can, and you can also take a ride when you meet a well-wisher. If you arrive at a place where there is no shop in front of the village and behind it, then find a roadside to fool around overnight.

Passing through small towns along the way, he will also use his long-term experience in odd jobs to earn room and board, because he seems to be young and harmless, and can be kind and diligent and willing to work, which is liked by many bosses, and the journey has been smooth, of course, there are times when people are turned away.

In this way, it took half a month to stop and stop all the way, and finally arrived at Linxi Town at the foot of Zhelong Mountain.

After staying at the Kejia Hotel in Linxi Town, Guan Pass asked people about the Black Tiger Village. However, to his surprise, no one here seemed to have heard of Black Tiger Village! When he tried to dig up the original tweet and show it to people, he couldn't find it.

Now that we have reached the foot of the mountain, how can we just go back?

"I really don't know what kind of black tiger village you are talking about, but my hometown is in the mountain bird village, and the village is divided into hundreds of birds and hundreds of birds. It's only half a day's walk away, and I'm going to go home early tomorrow morning to buy mountain goods, if you're interested, come with me. "Boss Ke is a dark-skinned and lean middle-aged man, not tall, with a mouthful of yellow and black smoky teeth, he really doesn't look like a boss. He always wears a blue cloth embroidered apron, and a huge baotou is wrapped around his head on a hot day, which really makes people worry about whether the baotou will break his neck!

Since Boss Ke was so warmly invited, Guan Ai gladly accepted his proposal. At the first glimmer of light in the early morning of the next day, Boss Ke drove a dilapidated small truck with a clangling sound to carry the pass to the mountain.

Boss Ke is an old smoker, and he never leaves his cigarettes along the way, and the open windows blow the soot all over the place, which really makes Guan Pass a little miserable. But every time he turned his head to look at Boss Ke, he couldn't help but think: How did this guy get into the cab with such a big baotou?

Driving from Linxi Town to the mountains, the first half is easy to say, but in the second half of the year, it really makes people's bitter gall upside down! After his head was bumped into the roof of the car several times, Guan Kou realized that the Baotou on Boss Ke's head was really an artifact! It was a completely natural anti-collision device!
