Chapter 68: It feels like a different world
Entrance of Huangjiacun.
Chen Yun stood up from the bench and thanked the old man in front of him.
He just came down from the mountain.
The upper body was unclothed, and the original tattered shirt was burned together with the fire, and the tattered white robe had also been buried in the ancient mine.
As for his shoes, they were now in tatters from being stepped on by him jumping excitedly among the trees.
This cannot be blamed on the poor quality of the 360 degree brand. The truth is that Chen Yun's slightest effort now is not something that ordinary shoes can withstand.
And as a well-educated and ambitious young man.
Although he kills without batting an eye, he knows he is a good boy.
Stealing is not a good thing if it is not necessary.
Therefore, he found an old man sitting in a daze at the entrance of Huangjia Village and wanted to buy clothes.
I got a shirt made of pure cotton, with a simple pattern and a loose collar for easy putting on and taking off.
And a pair of white canvas shoes.
But after chatting for a while, the two of them had a very happy conversation.
It was not until shortly after that Chen Yun, whose cash, power banks, data cables and other items were burned by the fire, that he remembered to take out his mobile phone to pay.
But the old man immediately refused.
"Young man, it's okay. I really don't need your money."
"It's already good that you can chat with me for a long time."
The old man, who was slightly thin but energetic, waved his hand towards Chen Yun.
His tone was full of kindness, completely devoid of the prejudice that some city people have against country people.
Even though he is in a mountain village, he still has a spiritual construction that is beyond ordinary people. However, this spirit can clearly feel a hint of loneliness.
After many young adults rush to big cities, he is like the empty-nesters in Huangjiacun and most mountain villages around the world.
Whenever he looked into the distance, he would often sit on a stool at the entrance of the village, as if he was waiting for someone.
To this.
Chen Yun was silent for a moment.
Then he sat down with a smile and started chatting and laughing with the uncle.
At this moment, he was not that extraordinary person.
He is just an ignorant child who likes to chat with the elderly.
Facing the refreshing cool breeze after the rain.
The two men's topics ranged from rural construction to the current price of pork. From the county government's visit to the countryside a few months ago, we talked about some practices in response to the country's call to protect the environment.
Chen Yun was chatting happily, and he could feel that the old man in front of him was also very happy. The two of them even chatted until they felt it was too late to meet each other.
Until the time reaches noon.
Chen Yun, who felt that he should not take advantage of others, repeatedly rejected the old man's invitation and walked towards the highway not far away.
The old man looked at Chen Yun's retreating figure.
A smile appeared.
The old man's smile is like the warm sun in winter, warm and genial. When the corners of his mouth are slightly raised, it seems that he can see the love and tenacity for life that he still has after all the vicissitudes of life.
Like an old tree that has endured wind and rain for a long time, although its branches and leaves are mottled, it still faces the sun and exudes a peaceful and indifferent atmosphere.
·························
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
Chen Yun returned to Mingwang New Village in Shu City.
Until he got on the elevator and arrived at the door of his home, he still felt a little like he was in another world.
This trip was not only the first time he had been away from home for so long since he gained the ability, but also one of the few times he had been away from home in the past.
When he was in school, he was like a homebody and never went out. After work, I will carry it out to the end. The factory and the home are on the same line.
It was not until later that he started writing online articles and was able to support himself that he even stopped going out at two o'clock and one line of work.
Except for necessary things like going downstairs to buy groceries, taking out the trash, and getting express delivery, as well as important events at home or a trip to my hometown in Jiangnan Province during the Chinese New Year, I really almost never go out.
If it weren't for his neighbor Bai Shi who would ask him to go out to play from time to time, he might have rarely even left the gate of Mingwang New Village.
so.
This time, I let myself go freely in the deep mountains and old forests. I even completed a bear licking, a sleep evolution, a boxing comprehension, and a murder and silence...
It really made him feel like he was in another world.
Obviously he only left the house on the morning of the 16th and came back on the afternoon of the 18th.
It only took a few days, but it felt like I had been out for months.
Looking at the door of his room, Chen Yungang was about to take out the key and open the door, but he suddenly thought of something and stopped.
He came to Shiraishi's door and knocked on the door.
Not long after, the door opened.
I saw Bai Shi slowly walking out carrying a bottle of red wine, and he smelled of alcohol. Judging by his expression, he didn't know why he was drinking to drown his sorrows.
Behind him, Shirogane was jumping up and down excitedly.
"You're back, this platinum is really energetic."
"And the new dog hasn't been vaccinated, so it can't be taken out for a walk to burn off energy."
Bai Shi looked at Chen Yun, who had returned at noon, and couldn't help but complain immediately. Obviously, he had been tortured a lot these past two days.
Chen Yun laughed when he heard this: "Haha, he does have some high energy."
After saying that, Chen Yun curled his fingers at the lively Bai Jin.
That platinum saw this.
He immediately calmed down, walked out of Baishi's house obediently, and sat down at Chen Yun's feet.
That motionless and well-behaved look.
Bai Shi couldn't help but widen his eyes, as if he had seen a ghost.
"My dear, haven't you only bought this dog a few days ago? Are you the trainer?"
Shiraishi couldn't help but complain like this.
He was very busy these days because of the restless Bai Jin. It was rare that something could make him feel confused and helpless.
But Chen Yun's move really shocked him.
Just curling your fingers?
Thinking about it, Shiraishi couldn't help but move his fingers towards Shirogane, but his fingers were shaking so hard that he couldn't see any movement from Shirogane.
Seeing this, Chen Yun shook his head helplessly: "I'll treat you to dinner next time."
After saying that, he was about to turn around and go home.
However, Bai Shi suddenly stopped him, his expression became a little nervous and said: "Um, Chen Yun, do you still remember Sun Huiwen?"
Hearing this, Chen Yun paused.
Looking at Bai Shi, whose expression had never been so hesitant and hesitant, Chen Yun said, "Remember, what happened to the bookstore proprietress you brought to play cards that day?"
Sensing Bai Shi's complicated emotions, Chen Yun vaguely guessed something.
"That is to say...she confessed her love to me yesterday."
"what do I do?"
Shiraishi's face looked hesitant.
He, who had always lived a carefree and happy life, was so entangled with a woman for the first time.
Even when he went to blackmail the owner of an Internet celebrity store, he could accept the special services of the bathing center calmly. Mingming once took Chen Yun to a bar to meet the world, and he was able to pick up a few girls and go to the hotel with him.
But now when faced with a girl's confession, he actually panicked.
"What can I do? If you like it, just accept it."
Chen Yun raised his eyebrows, not surprised by this.
Before he set off to the mountains, he did meet Sun Huiwen once, and he also talked with this girl about some tips that he should pay attention to when pursuing Bai Shi.
Now it's a bit fast to go up.
But looking at Shiraishi's current reaction, it is obviously very effective.
"Chen Yun, let me say this from the bottom of my heart. I can play with it, but I can't really like it."
"To be honest, I was both an art forger and an art thief back then. Except for this country, almost all the world's officials wanted me as a thief."
"I am just a bird in a cage, afraid to fly high. Now I only dare to hide in this familiar and comfortable city. Other cities must carefully study more than a dozen emergency escape routes before I dare to go there."
"How can I really be with a girl like this?"
Bai Shi struggled for a long time and said.
This is the first time Shiraishi has revealed his identity and feelings. Chen Yun's emotional perception could detect his nervousness at this moment.
Even if he trusted Chen Yun enough, when he said these words, he hid a bottle of ether in his hand behind his back that could cause fainting.
Most likely, even the escape route is ready.
Chen Yun covered the Baishi family's transparent world 3.0 perception and could see an emergency escape package filled with cash, documents, and medicine, as well as a map of Shu City's underground sewer network.
Obviously, if Bai Shi hadn't been too entangled in Sun Huiwen's matter, he wouldn't have been able to take the risk of confessing to Chen Yun.
To this.
Chen Yun hesitated for a moment and then said: "There is nothing to be afraid of, this is the land of China. In the future, you will develop in China, and the money left in you will be enough to enjoy your old age, right?"
"And... isn't that what you are doing now? What are you afraid of?"
"In this land, at least there will be no enemies with guns to attack you."
Chen Yun did not answer how Bai Shi should reply to Sun Huiwen's confession.
Because he knew that Bai Shi wanted to accept it and was really moved.
It was just the strong insecurity brought about by his identity that made him afraid to accept others. So Chen Yun said a few words about the safety of this land.
immediately.
He turned around and went home with platinum.
Next, let Shiraishi think about it for himself.
When my friend makes such an important decision, he can only give some advice. The specific decision-making still has to be made by the friends themselves.
As for Chen Yun himself, he naturally goes home to do some business of his own.
for example……
