there's a stick

Chapter 42
"What?" Dazed for a moment, Yi Shuiyang asked suspiciously, but he didn't know which young master he was talking about.

Liu Boxin smiled and said: "Lao Zhang admires you very much, so if I have the opportunity to meet you, I must ask you for advice!"

"Do you know Zhang Guangzhe?" The old Zhang who admired him very much, the old man Zhang Guangzhe was the only thing Yi Shuiyang could think of.

But I didn't expect this Liu Boxin to know Zhang Guangzhe. Seeing that the two were about the same age, it might be an old acquaintance.

Liu Boxin nodded, making sure that the Zhang Guangzhe that Yi Shuiyang was talking about was Lao Zhang, but there was no follow-up after that. When he turned his head, he saw that Bai Ye had fallen asleep again.

It seems that although the two know each other, Master Bai and Zhang Guangzhe have different temperaments. It is rare that the two actually know each other. It is quite like the posture of myself and Hu Wei.

Since Master Bai lacked interest, Yi Shuiyang didn't want to disturb him, so he sat upright beside Matthew, watching Matthew wanting to talk to him, pretending to sleep and closing his eyes.

Although Matthew looks harmless to humans and animals, the speaker has no intention and the listener has a heart. If he says something that shouldn't be said, Yi Shuiyang doesn't want to be unable to come back this time. The two people in front are not soft-hearted masters .

I had lunch on the road, and it was almost evening when I arrived at Longhushan. I saw the route before, and it took about seven hours from Danyang to Longhushan.

"Are you going to live on the mountain tonight?" Yi Shuiyang asked suspiciously, seeing that he had reached the entrance of the scenic spot on the mountain side, but A Rui didn't intend to stop in front.

A Rui didn't speak, Li Tianyi said, "Just follow along obediently. Although we haven't found the exact location, we have the general direction."

Yi Shuiyang was silent for a moment, and didn't speak any more. He had already become more cautious. It seemed that this old man didn't tell him many things.

"Just follow me when the time comes!" As if sensing the change in Yi Shuiyang's mood, Liu Boxin who was behind suddenly got up and whispered something in his ear.

Yi Shuiyang just wanted to ask something, but Liu Boxin had already retreated, and even made Yi Shuiyang think that it was his own illusion just now.

An hour later, after stumbling around, Ari entered a house and stopped. There was a middle-aged man inside. Although the weather here was cool, he was still wearing short sleeves, and the muscles in his arms were particularly eye-catching.

"This is Brother Huang, the guide. We will stay here tonight and start exploring tomorrow!" Li Tianyi said.

The person opposite who was called Brother Huang smiled and said: "My name is Huang Qiao, you can also call me by my name. Arrangements have been made upstairs. Come with me!"

Yi Shuiyang glanced at the direction of Matthew and Liu Boxin, both of them followed this big brother Huang up, and he himself followed, only Li Tianyi and A Rui were still leaning against the side of the car downstairs.

These two seem to have been here before.

Huang Qiao opened a room on the second floor. There was only a wooden bed in it, but there were beds on the floor. He said a little apologetically: "I'm sorry, there are not so many places to live in the countryside. This is my son's room. He goes to the city." I go to school here so I don’t live at home, so you can just make do with it.”

"Well, that's very good, thank you!" Liu Boxin said, and threw his backpack directly on the bed, the meaning was obvious, this Lord Bai slept on the bed, while Yi Shuiyang and Matthew slept on the floor.

Yi Shuiyang didn't care, even Matthew muttered, but didn't say much, it was just for one night anyway.

After tidying up the bed, Yi Shuiyang asked, "Have you ever been here?"

Liu Boxin leaned on the bed, always seemed to be half asleep and half awake, and didn't reply to Yi Shuiyang's words, but Matthew shook his head and said, "No, it's my first time here too, they found me on a donkey friend website , asked me if I was interested, so here I am!"

"Do you know how this guy got here?" Yi Shuiyang mumbled in Liu Boxin's direction.

Matthew glanced at him and said, "I don't know, but it should be similar to me. I arrived at Gu Ye's shop three days ago, and this one arrived two days ago, a day later than me."

"So only the two downstairs are together?" Yi Shuiyang said in a daze, feeling that there was something wrong with this trip.

Matthew shrugged, he didn't know what Yi Shuiyang was worried about, but Liu Boxin who was on the bed said, "Who's not in the same group? Anyway, brothers can't believe it when they come to the grave. Who would dare?" Bet that the rich are not tempted right now."

What this Lord Bai said was true, Yi Shuiyang wanted to ask him how he and Zhang Guangzhe met, but saw a figure approaching the window, only to find out that it was A Rui when he walked to the door.

"There are biscuits downstairs, you can eat them after toasting them!" Ari left immediately after speaking, and the remaining three looked at each other in blank dismay, and also got up and went down.

No matter how hard I think, I have to eat, right?

Downstairs in the yard, there is a fire circle made of stones, with raging charcoal fire burning inside, and several iron skewers on the side. The clothes on them seem to be bacon from the porch of Brother Huang's house.

Last year's old bacon, there were still two pieces left, Yi Shuiyang had already seen it when he came, it was dark and had no appetite, but now it was sliced ​​and roasted, and it was fragrant.

Everyone is exhausted after traveling all day. Li Tianyi asked Huang Qiao to purchase the pot helmets. Except for preparing them for the tomb, the rest are here, which is enough for a full meal.

After all, pot helmets are easy to break, so it is better to bring more compressed biscuits.

Each person has an iron stick, and the pot helmet is roasted on the stone next to the charcoal fire, with an opening in the middle, and then the baked bacon is stuffed in. This earthen meat sandwich is delicious.

Yi Shuiyang ate three of them, which was the least among them. He didn't drink any alcohol. He had a large bowl of fermented glutinous rice made by Huangqiao's family. After drinking a large bowl, his whole body was hot and dry. cold.

After tossing around until after ten o'clock, several people packed up and went to sleep. They wanted to talk to Liu Boxin before going to bed, but it turned out that A Rui also slept in this room, which made Yi Shuiyang lose his interest immediately.

The next morning, Yi Shuiyang woke up only after eight o'clock, and fell asleep in the middle of the night after being disturbed by A Rui's snoring last night. It seemed that he finally understood why Li Tianyi didn't share a room with him.

After packing up his things, Yi Shuiyang felt that it was a bit cold outside, so he added an extra coat, then opened the door and went out, standing on the balcony, breathing the mountain breeze, feeling inexplicably at ease.

Looking downstairs, Huang Qiao has already got up and is going up to the gate in the yard. There is something covered with a tarpaulin. Watching Huang Qiao tear off the tarpaulin, there is actually a boat inside?

He went down curiously, and called out to Huang Qiao, "Brother Huang, shall we take the boat today?"

"Hey, don't you know? You can only go there by boat!" Huang Qiao pulled down the tent and said.
