Chapter 26: Going West to Thousand Mountains
Zhu Xuefeng bent down to pick up the money and moved around a bit. His back was fine and he said with a smile.
“I have been learning it for a long time, but I have never used it. The effect is not bad.”
“Who are you fooling? If you are really good at fighting, you will still get a bloody head.”
"You don't believe me to tell the truth. Last time I didn't sleep for several days and nights. He accidentally pushed me down and hit a brick on the back of my head. So I always said it was a fall."
To deal with this This kind of innocent little girl is simple to Zhu Xuefeng. What she says is not a lie, it is just cut off from beginning to end, so she has no psychological burden, her face does not change, and her heart does not beat.
Xia Yuhong was dubious, and after checking it up and down, she felt relieved.
"As long as it's okay, don't let me run away next time. I was too far away just now and couldn't see clearly. I'll be there if something happens again!"
He turned around and blinked again. , said to Zhu Xuefeng with a smile, "Why don't you teach me how to fight too? It's so handsome."
"Hey, let's practice together when we have time. Now, let's go home. How about our parents?" Worried.”
Xia Yuhong lightly kicked Zhu Xuefeng, curling her lips and smiling.
"Who can compare with our parents and our parents, they are virtuous."
Seeing that Zhu Xuefeng didn't hide, he cursed again.
"A pig's brain doesn't even know how to hide. Look, the pants are dirty."
Zhu Xuefeng smiled and patted the soil, thinking, if you hide, you won't scold me, but you don't dare to talk to a girl. Be reasonable, this girl is the best at being reasonable, because she makes sense no matter what.
This time, I rode my bike home, whispering along the way. When I arrived at the entrance of the alley, Xia Yuhong jumped out of the car, looked back with her lips pursed, and ran away with a smile.
Seeing Xia Yuhong disappear at the end of the alley with her ponytail waving, Zhu Xuefeng turned around and went home.
If you have time, you should practice your backing skills. Today's few are obviously not good at anything and have no guys. It's hard to say if we encounter this kind of situation next time.
Deputy Section Chief Li is probably really offended. He has no choice but to let his beating go in vain. If it weren’t for the sake of the steel rolling mill, Li Yong wouldn’t be so cheap today. After all, his father Is a future colleague.
Deputy Section Chief of the Workers and Finance Department, forget it, just don’t recruit me. I really have no interest in making fun of others. My current level is too low.
Zhu Xuefeng is very concerned about his plans, and he really has no time to care about these minor characters.
…………………… , there is another trump card, some things need to be done quickly.
The north and west of the capital are mountainous. The north is too far. For example, the village where Zhu Xuefeng’s father was born is right at the foot of the mountain. But just by car, at the current speed, it takes eight or nine hours. In fact, it is only more than 200 kilometers, but the road is too bad.
Zhu Xuefeng plans to go to the west to try his luck at Qianshan, which is estimated to be less than 70 kilometers away. In fact, in areas that are not fully open to traffic, cycling is no slower than driving.
After telling his younger brothers and sisters that he was going out for a few days, leaving some money, tickets and some cooked food, Zhu Xuefeng went out on his bicycle.
It’s a long journey, so save some energy if you can. I found an opportunity to collect the bicycle and came to the platform. After waiting at the platform for a while, Zhu Xuefeng got on the tram and headed west.
Looking at the wide road, the gatehouses at both ends of the long street were demolished and expanded. Before the demolition, the two gatehouses were stuck on the long street, and the military parade had to go around it.
Look now, it is spacious and the capital is developing rapidly. The magnificent city wall has seriously restricted the construction and development of the industrial center.
Take Zhu Xuefeng's future work as an example. He lives in Nanluogu Lane and works in a steel rolling mill. The distance is not too far, but it is inconvenient to go out of the city and go around the city gate. Now the traffic flow is the same every day. It takes about an hour.
Later generations have always lamented the city walls of the ancient capital city. Considering the current actual situation, Zhu Xuefeng somewhat understands the difficult decision of having the city walls removed. It is inconvenient for both factories and ordinary people to enter and exit.
Re-planning the city's land and arranging all industries outside the city is indeed the best way to preserve the appearance of the ancient capital and leave room for industrial development.
We are still poor now, and we really don’t have the ability to build an industrial center and residential area with a population of one million outside the city.
Now there is no foreign exchange and no reserves. All the previous gold has been wiped out, taking away four million taels. You can imagine how weak we are now. We have just experienced a multinational war and are fully recovering. stage.
The current top priority is food and development, and the city wall really cannot take care of it. Development always has to pay a price.
After getting off the No. 10 tram, Zhu Xuefeng realized that he had done something stupid again. The tram only went to Muxidi, and he had to wait for another bus to the west. After leaving Shijingshan, he had to change to a long-distance bus to the west.
I was too lazy to wait, so I didn’t look carefully. I thought I’d get Shijingshan anyway, so I’d find a chance and ride away. It was a bumpy ride, passing the Military Museum, heading west along the long street, passing the intensive military compound area, and passing the basketball stadium of later generations. It was really quite a distance.
It was still early. From a distance, he saw a large enclosed courtyard in a cemetery. Zhu Xuefeng turned around and continued westward, finally passing Jinding Street.
There is no formed road behind, it is a bumpy dirt road all the way.
Because it rained some time ago, the road surface has been trampled by trucks, carriages, etc. and is full of ruts. Now the ruts have hardened and it is even more difficult to walk. Fortunately, I am riding a bicycle. If I were riding in a car, I would probably have a bumpy ride. Seven meat and eight vegetables.
I found a field and sat down on the side of the road. I estimate that I walked less than half of it to solve my belly problem. After riding all this way, my butt is no longer my own, and my crotch has also started to complain, so I’d better rest first. Yes, have something to eat.
From a distance, I saw a carriage coming slowly. It was probably returning to the village after doing some business in the city. Zhu Xuefeng stood up and waved his hand. After a while, the carriage came in front of Zhu Xuefeng and stopped. Come down.
"What happened? Young man."
An old man got out of the carriage, followed by a little boy. His face was dusty, his face was covered with dust, the corners of his mouth were chapped, and there was energy under the crack. See dark red tender meat.
Unlike hitchhikers, people are riding bicycles.
"Uncle, let me ask for directions. You are taking a break."
Zhu Xuefeng handed over the kettle and said, "Drink some, too."
Took out two more Steamed buns, "You two take a break together, let's have a rest, it's just a good time to chat."
The uncle took the water, but not the steamed buns. These white-flour steamed buns were too rare. Everyone was short of food now, so I was embarrassed to ask for them. I drank two sips of water.
Zhu Xuefeng saw the child's eyes shining as he looked at the steamed buns, and turned to hand it to the little boy, but the little boy licked his mouth, looked at the uncle, shook his head again, and did not take it.
"I gave it to you. I still have it. I can't put it away. It's a waste. Let's go on."
After hesitating for a long time, the old man finally nodded and the little boy took it. , gave one to the uncle, and ate the steamed buns in small bites while drinking water.
“Young man, where are you going?”
Seeing Zhu Xuefeng riding a bicycle, I couldn’t figure out the details of Zhu Xuefeng. He was young and fair, so he knew he was from the city. .
"Uncle, I came from the city. I heard that there are wild animals in Qianshan Mountains. I want to see them. I don't know if the road is right."
"The road is correct. There are wild animals in Qianshan Mountains." There are quite a few, especially in the mountains, where there are deer, goats, wild boars and wolves, but almost no one goes in now."
"But you didn't bring anything with you, you're just alone, and you can't do anything. "
"Uncle, I'm just here to explore. There are many people in our unit and there is no meat in the cafeteria. I'm here to ask if I can get some."
Zhu Xuefeng came as soon as he opened his mouth. The uncle was not surprised. Sixteen is working now? There are many soldiers, so it is normal for this young man riding a bicycle to go to work.
"Do you want the militia to help fight? Are you going to buy it?" The uncle had an idea.
"Okay, that's a good idea." Zhu Xuefeng was a little surprised. He had no experience. It was a good thing that someone brought a gun to help.
After thinking about it for a while, the uncle himself denied it.
“Forget it, there are too many militiamen, running away in vain, wasting time, but there are few people, and when they encounter wild boars and wolves, it becomes more food for them.”
“It’s very difficult outside. Encountered. We have been beaten a lot in the past few years. It is too dangerous to go into the mountains. Young man, forget it and go back home. This mountain is not easy to enter. "
Look. Zhu Xuefeng has a good figure and height, but no meat. If he goes into the mountains and encounters wolves, he will have to play with just one.
Shake your head, get up, eat and drink, it’s getting late, so hurry up and get on your way.
"Young man, thank you for the steamed buns. In fact, we are from Niu Village below Qianshan Mountain. I really recommend you not to go into the mountains."
Zhu Xuefeng saw that they had only eaten half of the steamed buns, leaving the rest Put it away, don't be hungry or save it?
Seeing that the uncle was about to leave, Zhu Xuefeng quickly got up and pushed the cart to follow.
