Little Life on An American Ranch: Chapter 429 Wrong way
Chapter 429 Wrong way
The old man Yao said that he understood, and then the two began to chat.
"How did you find this place? It's like a real-life Peach Blossom Spring." Jian Heng laughed.
The old man smiled and nodded: "If there were no such natural dangers, the Manchu soldiers would have taken down here long ago, and our hair would have been lost a long time ago. In this way, they fought several times and were blocked every time. At that stone gate."
Thinking of the cave that he just passed, Jian Heng nodded his head in agreement: "It's true that one man guards the gate, and ten thousand men are not allowed to open it. People who just throw something on it and stand in the cave can't bear it."
"Well, but that was in the past, and it doesn't work now. Helicopters and cannons are not fatal things," said the old man Yao.
"Those things don't apply to you, so is this little stuff from you worth thinking about?" Jian Heng laughed.
After hearing this, Mr. Yao became happy. He picked up a chopstick of chicken and put it in his mouth. While chewing, he told Jian Heng an interesting story: "Don't tell me, there are really poverty alleviation workers from the mountain who have inquired about us. The matter of the village, but they searched for a long time and couldn't find the entrance, so they stopped looking."
"I think it's easy to find?" Jian Heng thinks the entrance is not too difficult.
Master Yao said: "I told you the approximate location. If you want to find the entrance from the village down the mountain, you have to find the year of the monkey."
"Really!" Jian Heng nodded after thinking for a while.
One old and one young bragged like this, while drinking a little wine, the two of them dropped a catty of wine, and then they were both slightly drunk, and their stomachs were almost full, so the old man left, and Jane Heng returned to the room and lay down on the bed to rest.
In the middle of the night, Jian Heng woke up, rolled up from the bed and entered the space, and began to dispense potions for the crazy children on the old man's side. It wasn't until dawn that Jian Heng continued to go back to bed to catch up on sleep.
For four or five days in a row, Jian Heng came here like this, drinking with Mr. Yao during the day, and entering the space to dispense medicine at night.
Originally, Jian Heng thought that the progress on his side would be very fast, but he didn't expect to stay here for a few days, so he decided to go down the mountain to a place with a signal to call home to make sure he was safe, and then comfort his family. At the same time, I told them that I would not be able to go back until a few days later.
It’s not that Jian Heng doesn’t want to go back sooner, nor is it that he is greedy for the lakes and mountains here, but that the preparation of this medicine does take time. If there is no space, Jian Heng has to wait for several herbs to react together for a long time before it can be used.
Early this morning, Jian Heng waited for the old man to show up in his small courtyard, so he told the old man about it.
Mr. Yao heard that Jian Heng was going to go out, and immediately said: "Can you do it alone? How about I go down the mountain with you?"
Jian Heng waved his hands and shook his head immediately: "Forget it, I'd better go by myself, you should stay at home honestly."
"Then be careful when you go out, so you won't be unable to find it yourself?" Mr. Yao doubted Jian Heng's ability to find his way.
When Jian Heng heard Mr. Yao's words, he immediately showed a look of disdain: "Can I find this way? Just rest assured, I will be back later today."
Master Yao nodded and agreed.
After speaking, Jian Heng simply tidied up here and left the small courtyard. He passed the suspension bridge along the way when he came, drilled out of the mountain crevice, and then walked down the mountain along the path.
When he was alone, Jian Heng used more tricks, directly using the space to enter and exit in this way. Anyway, in the place where he can see, Jian Heng is like the flashing technique of a magic beast mage, and this flashing technique is slightly different. There is no cooldown time besides dazzling.
So the winding mountain road is suddenly more convenient for Jian Heng.
It took more than an hour, with three breaks in the middle, Jian Heng arrived at the foot of the mountain and released his Continental Tiger. Jian Yan walked along the river to the village while holding his mobile phone, planning to find a place with a good signal Get in touch with your family.
Holding up the mobile phone, I searched and searched until I found a signal near the village. Then, to make the signal stronger, Jian Heng had to walk a little further outside. I felt that I was almost at the last one I passed. In a small county town, Jian Heng got an almost full signal.
and my parents, as well as the barley and wheat in the pasture, reported that they were safe, and then said that I would go back in a few days. After nagging for almost an hour, I hung up the phone and walked back.
Putting down the phone, Jian Heng sighed in his heart, although this place is nice, it's a pity that it's not my home. The surprise at the Peach Blossom Spring lasted only a few days, and Jian Heng began to miss the barley and wheat at home. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it can't match the beautiful wife at home.
Walking back along the road, after passing the village on Jian Heng's side, he went up along the river, but Jian Heng felt that his road was not quite right, but there was only one road when he left the village. River, so Jian Heng didn't think too much about it, and just continued to drive the car to face the setting sun that was now fading away.
He kept walking upstream along the river, and the more he walked, the more Jian Heng felt that something was wrong. The river seemed to have been walked for tens of minutes, but now he walked for almost an hour without seeing the end of the river. The end of the river is not seen, and the river is getting wider and wider.
Oops! Dude went the wrong way.
Jian Heng finally realized that he had really gone the wrong way.
When he realized that he had gone the wrong way, Jian Heng was naturally a little confused. There was no navigation here, so Jian Heng had to follow the original road honestly and go back. After such a toss, he went straight to seven or eight o'clock in the evening , This is the village.
At the entrance of the village, Jian Heng was really stunned this time. He finally understood where he was wrong. There is only one road leading to the valley, but this village has two roads. That is to say, Jian Heng accidentally turned to this side of this village, which led to the wrong way.
Jian Heng didn't know how to get to the two roads in front of him, so he had to drive the car slowly into the village, hoping to ask someone for directions.
Fortunately for Jian Heng, after entering the village, he came across a brightly lit house. Unlike other houses that didn’t have any lights, this house had two lights hanging on each side of the door.
There was a young girl sitting at the door of this family, she looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, her face was immature, and she must have turned eighteen. The little girl was wearing national costumes, and she looked quite gorgeous, with a lot of silver ornaments on her body, twinkling under the lights.
The lamp is an electric lamp, but unfortunately the voltage seems to be a little unstable, flickering slightly, and there is a little lamb next to the little girl. The lamb is not big, it seems that it has just been weaned.
From Jian Heng's point of view, this little lamb seems to be the girl's pet, otherwise he wouldn't be wearing a piece of colored silk, and his head was dyed with a bunch of hair.
Because the light was a bit dim, Jian Heng couldn't tell what color it was. Fortunately, Jian Heng is just asking for directions and doesn't care about this.
The little girl also saw Jian Heng's car, with **** eyes open, the Continental Tiger who had been looking at Jian Heng came to her.
When he came to the five-way distance in front of the girl, Jian Heng opened the car door and got out of the car. Then, with a smile on his face, he walked towards the little girl.
"Girl, let me ask you something, how to get to the county seat?" Jian Heng asked.
When the little girl saw Jian Heng approaching, a shy smile appeared on her face, and she suddenly lowered her head.
Seeing that the little girl didn't answer him, but just lowered her head, Jian Heng thought that the girl in the mountain was a little shy when she saw a stranger, so he asked again: "Do you know how to get to the county seat?"
Seeing that the little girl hadn't answered, Jian Heng was a little anxious, thinking about getting some material rewards, so that he could find the right way quickly after being stimulated at such a big night.
So he took out a few red notes from his pocket and handed them to the girl: "Girl, how do I get to the county town?"
The little girl saw that Jian Heng took out the money by herself, and the red became more and more red. She raised her hand and took the money from Jian Heng's hand.
"%￥!@*&" the little girl said to Jian Heng.
Jian Heng didn't understand at all. He didn't even know whether the little girl spoke a dialect or her own national language.
Jian Heng slowed down his speech, and slowly asked another question in Mandarin, who knew that the girl still spoke a lot in a language that Jian Heng could not understand.
Chicken and duck talk! This is Jian Heng's feeling at the moment, and at the same time, he complains that the gang from the Ministry of Education are doing poorly in promoting Mandarin across the country.
