After the meal, Ah Tao went to the sinkhole to take a bath, feeling extremely comfortable. Just as he was about to step on the stone stairs, laughter suddenly came from Ah Si's house. Ah Tao knew whose laughter it was and what it meant. He went to his own sunbathing room, put away the soap and towel, and went to visit Ah Si's house.
What was a scholar doing here? Only those of us who don't study have time to play!
He had just stepped into the door when Yi Shen threw a hard sentence at him. Yi Shen and Ah Si stopped studying after reading the fourth volume of elementary school. Her words seemed to erect a wall between Ah Tao and her and Ah Si, dividing the three of them who had always played well into two.
Why? You don't welcome me? If you don't welcome them, it's very simple-leave immediately! Ah Tao didn't seem to be very enthusiastic and said coldly.
Ah Si hurriedly said,"Who doesn't welcome you?" Yi Shen was joking!
Yi Shen glanced at Ah Tao and said: Scholar, don't be so petty. Besides, I meant to ask if you're here to deliver good news-
What good news? I don't have any good news!
You really know how to pretend!
Pretending? Originally!
Seeing that the two of them were keeping him in suspense, Ah Si said," You've been accepted as a reserve student by Chongde High School. Do you really not know? People also say that you answered political questions well. Especially the question about the four dimensions and eight virtues, your brother and Nong Dehuai don't know it! Neither of them had been accepted…
You're really something! So you should be happy! Yi Shen said: Do you want me to be happy for you?
To be honest, I don't care about these! Ah Tao said,"I just came back from the Tiankeng bath and heard the laughter here. It's quite lively, so I came over to take a look." By the way, ask Ah Si what you're doing tomorrow. I haven't joined your labor for a long time.
So, what are you planning to do tomorrow? Four asked.
If the two of you don't have a unified arrangement, I'll go to Boss Mo's house on the street with Brother Ah Mao tomorrow and send it to the city the day after tomorrow. Ah Tao said.
Although Ah Tao said this to Ah Si, he was actually saying it to Yi Shen. This art of speech was very similar to the concealment habits of a tribe in Africa. His wife was standing right in front of him. If he had something to say, he could say it directly to his wife. However, according to his habit of hiding, he could not say it directly. Instead, he could say it to the stone, pillar, or other things beside him so that his wife could hear it. It was the same for a wife to talk to her husband.
You're going alone? It's quite tiring! Ah Si was kept in the dark and asked Ah Tao.
I'll go with my brother. Besides, even if it's hard, I have to learn how to do it. What isn't hard? Do you think so?
My sister will be there the day after tomorrow. I really want to go with her! Yi Shen interrupted.
Your sister won't let you go--it's hard! Ah Tao said.
You look down on people-you can go, but can't I?……
Ask your sister first!
On the morning of the third day, just before dawn, the horse gangs of the stockade carried ironwood chopping boards and shook their respective bells as they left the stockade.
The caravan headed southeast of the village. After crossing a few hills, they entered the Nonggang forest. The tinkling sound of the bell was lost in the mountains and forests, spreading in the vast primeval forest.
Ding ding dong dong…
The horse caravan moved against the current along the edge of a stream, sometimes crossing the hill, sometimes crossing the stream, slowly but without stopping.
About an hour later, the sky was bright. Then the sun slowly rose from the treetops, filtering its rays through the branches and leaves of the trees, forming colorful spots of light under the trees. When the caravan passed by these big trees, the sound of hooves, the tinkling of bells, and the occasional hoho of the horse drivers seemed to have alarmed the birds and apes that perched at night. From time to time, the chirping of birds and the cries of apes could be heard from the treetops.
The caravan passed by a green field without any trees. The sun seemed to be getting stronger. Looking back at the road they had just walked, the mountains were mountains and forests were forests. The outline was clear. At this moment, a person suddenly appeared on the slightly white path that meandered from the green forest. Ah Tao hurried to a small tree to observe the person's movements. He vaguely felt that a black shadow had appeared in his vision when he looked back a few minutes after leaving the village. Because at that time, the sky was dark and the shadows were not bright. He was a person who did not believe in ghosts and gods, so he did not engrave the black shadow in his mind. Now, this person might be that black shadow, and that black shadow might be this person. But who was this person? Although he didn't believe in gods or ghosts, he was still a little puzzled.
After pondering for a while, that person approached, even closer. At first glance, it was a man. He was wrapped in a green handkerchief and dressed in a home-woven green cloth. There was also an old yellow handkerchief around his waist. They were dressed like a caravan.
Closer. Upon closer inspection, the face was quite familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before. Ah Tao turned around from the tree and went up to him. The other party spoke first,"The caravan has gone far away. Why are you still here?" He was simply crawling like a turtle!
Oh! So it's you, Yi Shen! A woman dressed as a man! Very handsome, very cool!
Really? Does he look like a man? Handsome and cool?
It was true! However, with a handsome guy like you, I look inferior! -- Sigh! Why are you here?
Just like that, the two of them talked in detail as they walked.
