The mule looked at the old man and was stunned. This guy still had such skills, he could tell he was an old man. The more he talked, the more he smoked two cigarettes in one breath. "Go down with a shovel and pull out the soil. The ones with sand are probably tombs from the Qing Dynasty, the ones with lime are from the Ming Dynasty, and the ones with five-flowered rammed earth are from the Warring States tombs. Over there at BJ There are many coffins made of cypress wood, many of which are not rotten, and some areas are covered with blue bricks. The ones that hit the big bricks must be big business. Maybe the prince and his concubine are sleeping inside, but I don't have that luck. I didn't find any princess. "My lord, I have seen a lot of bad behavior among senior officials. I am too old to be able to do this anymore. I'd better try to be more virtuous in the future." "We'll see each other again tonight." But I know we will meet again. When I was living in northern Shaanxi, people called me a blind man. If something happened to you in northern Shaanxi, you would call me a blind man." The more the mule listened, the more mysterious he was. Are you bragging in this big mountain? Li Youtian didn't think so. There was no need for these rich people to show off in this poor valley. Li Youtian said: "Old sir, we will meet again in the future." "I look forward to the present being different at that time." After saying that, with a small mouthful of cigarette butt left, he threw it out coolly, patted the dust on his butt and walked into the house. Li Youtian also left. Zhang Yilan looked at the mule and said: "The sky in Hulucun Village is not beautiful at all, but the air is very good and life here is very healthy. When you go out, you Find out that the outside world is not what you imagined, and even if you are in a worse situation than you are now, you will not miss this place.¡± Then the woman said a few words in English, but the mule didn¡¯t understand a word. Mule finished his cigarette and watched Zhang Yilan walk into the room, then fell to the ground to sleep. Mule did not look back at her, he just looked to one side and then looked at the sky, thinking about what the sky was like outside. What he never expected was that there were no stars in the sky outside. In his early years, Li Chengzhu told Mule that at that time Mule only knew SH in his heart, a place where every inch of land was valuable. Mule had only seen descriptions of SH in textbooks - experience, prosperity, and fashion. Of course, these mules don't understand. Living in a big mountain valley, how can he know how prosperous SH is? He will never know that this small place like Hulucun is not even a poor kiln compared to SH, but Hulu Village in Taiping Town is a well-known place. When three big vehicles ran over the bad road in Hulu's village, the mule began to want to leave this inaccessible place. After all, the mule was not very lucky. It was a good thing that he and Chen Kui were not killed by animals on the mountain. , Mules are notorious in Hulu Village. That¡¯s how Mule feels. He likes that everyone hates him and everyone wants to kill him, but the feeling that others can¡¯t and still look at him with envy is just Mule¡¯s idea. The next day, Zhang Yilan and the man called the blind man led the convoy out of Hulu Village with a bang. The mule's legs were inconvenient, so he did not go to see them off. The wound on the mule's leg had already begun to speak, and it had begun to suppurate. The mule found the village head. Liu crutches, and then he prescribed some medicine for the mule, just some Chinese herbal medicine, which can still have some effect on this kind of injury, but it is inevitable to hurt the muscles and bones for a hundred days. Those people from the city, the beautiful woman named Zhang Yilan, the low-key and shameless blind man who turned out to be the overlord of northern Shaanxi, the couple of losers, and the big man who seemed simple-minded, suddenly appeared in Mule In their lives, this pair of mules had a huge impact. Li Chengzhu, who was also a traveler, and the mysterious grandfather, who was always so airy, never looked down on others, and lived a life of aloofness. When all this was When Mule Zi thought about it, Mule Zi couldn't help but feel a little panic, but he didn't know where this panic came from. Mule sat under the tree in front of the door with a cigarette in his mouth. From time to time he took out the jade pipe in his pocket. Mule looked at it and it was probably not a strange thing, because his grandfather also had one. He looked carefully Looking at the pipe, he couldn't tell what kind of jade it was, and he didn't know how much it was worth. The pipe was washed dozens of times by the mule with water, and finally there was no dust at all. The mule did not regard it as a treasure, but he just thought the pipe was beautiful. He also searched for it, but he never found a suitable handle. If it hadn't been for him So he changed his pipe to a jade one. This was such a shameful thing in the village. "But Mule thought again, grandpa also had one like this. If others saw it, would they think that he dug his grandpa's grave? Mule kept it in mind, but he never took it out. He put it in his pocket, touching and feeling the pipe with his own body temperature on it from time to time. Finally, he discovered that the pipe was engraved with a dragon in extremely fine strokes, and then on the upper half of the pipe, there was a very obvious word "lian". Mule didn¡¯t pay attention because he didn¡¯t want to understand the thoughts of the ancients. Even if he wanted to, he didn¡¯t have the ability. The mule was smoking a cigarette and was in a daze. A girl about the same age as the mule appeared behind the mule, and then shouted "Brother Mule". This sentence almost scared the mule out of his soul. The mule turned back. He looked at the girl and said, "I guess it's you, little girl." The girl sat next to the mule. She was sitting exactly where Zhang Yilan was sitting. The mule looked at her and said, "Why are you here?" "The corner of the girl's mouth raised, and then she said in a higher voice: "Why, why can't I come? You don't want me to come, do you?" "No, no, Xiaohui, you came just in time, I want to ask you something. The girl named Xiaohui blinked and looked at the unshaved mule: "What's going on?" "Do you want to go out?" "Where are you going?" After hesitating for a moment: "Well, let's go to the city!" The girl said happily: "Go, my dad said he would take me to a BJ." "Go to a BJ? Why?" "Look for a teacher, my dad said he would go out to work. By the way, take me there to find a good teacher." "When?" Mule looked at her in surprise. "I don't know, that's what dad said. I don't know the specific time." The mule was silent for a while, smoking silently. This girl's name is Lin Xiaohui. She has grown up with a mule since she was a child. Her family's conditions are considered good in Hulu Village. She likes to dance. I heard from the villagers that the little girl in the west of the village has been dancing to the big dance since she was a child. Know where the strength comes from. She dropped out of high school only in her first year and went to the county town to learn dancing. What Mulezi didn't expect was that Xiaohui was going to BJ. Today is different from the past. The girl named Xiaohui looked at the mule's wound seriously, and then carefully changed the mule's dressing. The mule didn't know what to say for a while. They have always had a good relationship. Mule likes her, and she also likes Mule, but she doesn't like the love between poor people. Mule took her hand and said, "I want to go to the city too, but I don't know when." Xiaohui didn't say anything after hearing this. She just looked at Mule's wound and blew air. Everyone knew that Mule liked this meeting. Dancing girls are something everyone in the village knows about. Although Lin Xiaohui and her father sometimes dislike the mule, the mule is still very kind to Xiaohui. Li Youtian walked out of the room, saw Xiaohui, and quickly poured water for Xiaohui to drink. The mule told Li Youtian that Xiaohui was going to BJ. Li Youtian was silent for a while, then turned to look at Xiaohui, and said with a smile: "You When is Dad going to take you there?" She said nothing, shook her head, pouted and said nothing. Li Youtian pulled the mule. Li Youtian knew that the girl sitting next to the mule was reluctant to let go of the mule. Mule finally figured it out and took her hand and said, "Xiaohui, just go. After my leg heals, I will go to the city. When I get better, I will go find you. You can't let your father look down on you." Ah." She looked at Mule, grumbled for a while and said, "They all call you Mule, but I am the only one who is willing to call you Brother Mule. When I got to BJ, no one came forward to speak for me. " "If we were in Hulu Village, I could cover the sky with just one hand, but we just matched up. As long as I'm here, no matter where you go, I will come to pick you up. " The girl stood up without saying anything. , Li Youtian didn't see that this mule could say such sensational words. He touched the mule's shoulder and walked into the house. Chen Kui came at this time. Chen Kui liked to joke when he saw the young couple. "Yo yo yo, whose eldest lady is this? Why did she come to our young master Mule now" Before he could finish speaking, Mule picked up the cloth shoes on the ground and threw them at Chen Kui. He cursed: "You bitch, stay away from me." Chen Kui saw something was wrong with the situation, and then saw Li Youtian gesturing at the door to leave quickly. He quickly ran to Li Youtian's side. Mule Zi looked at the girl standing in front of him and felt a little disappointed. If my legs were better, I would have gone to BJ with him a long time ago. It's just that Mule and her father don't get along, and sometimes they don't even dare to say anything. Mule still hesitates in her heart. She stood upright in front of the mule without saying a word. She was tall and had clear eyes that any man would know.You may be tempted by this kind of woman, but since she is the mule¡¯s food in Hulu Village, others can only live with their eyes. Everyone has aesthetic fatigue. The older ones like the widow type. When Zhang Yilan comes to the city, then I thought the widow was ugly, but after they left, the widow made a comeback. In Mule's eyes, this girl named Xiaohui is still the best. Although she doesn't have Zhang Yilan's temperament, they are equally qualified in terms of qualifications. In fact, Mule doesn't know whether he likes the Xiaohui type or the Zhang Yilan type. After all, After living with Xiaohui for so many years, I am more curious when I see new things. But in the final analysis, Mule still prefers this classmate Lin Xiaohui standing in front of him. Xiaohui took the mule's hand and said, "Brother mule, no matter where I go, I will wait for you." As soon as she finished speaking, she ran towards home before the mule could speak. Mule was trembling in his heart. He turned around and saw Li Youtian and Chen Kui. He said loudly: "Damn it, my heart felt like it was shot by a musket. When you get to my day, you will know my difficulties." " Chen Kui smiled, and Li Youtian also laughed. Chen Kui stood in front of the door, chewing melon seeds and said, "What hit you in the heart?" Li Youtian smiled and said, "Didn't you hear it?" Chen Kui spat out a mouthful of melon seed skin and said: "Hahaha, Musketeer, mule, you are not far from death. Women are a disaster. If Xiaohui is from the next village, you are not allowed to dig tunnels, haha." A shoe was thrown hard at Chen Kui, and the commentator said with his fist: "Damn it, Chen Kui, I would rather be shot with a musket. This feels so damn uncomfortable."
