"Tomorrow? I won't go tomorrow, but I will go the day after tomorrow."

"Then just go to the seed shop and bring me a packet of radish seeds."

"Okay." Aunt Wu didn't even want to agree.

"Here, thirty." Aunt Wu handed a large bag of washing powder to the other party.

"Aunt Wu, now I pay by mobile phone, you can make mobile payment anytime."

"Forget it, forget it, I'm so old, I can't learn that stuff, by the way, will your family come back this year for the Chinese New Year tomorrow morning?"

"Chinese New Year? I'm definitely coming back, but it's still early for Chinese New Year, Aunt Wu, I'm leaving." Ju Xiang said, carrying washing powder out of the canteen.

"Come back, come back..." Aunt Wu murmured in a low voice.

Turned around and went back to the back room.

Chapter 579 Mine

"It's cold, you need to put more clothes on Tao Zi, and you have to pay attention to your body, don't catch cold..."

"Understood grandma, I am in excellent health. How could I catch a cold? It is true that you pay more attention to yourself. Is it cold over there?"

"It's not cold here, it's alright, when will you bring Taozi and Miss Liu back?" Grandma poked secretly.

Although she often makes video calls, she still misses He Sihai every day.

Old people like her don't look at their mobile phones or watch TV. The most time they spend every day is to miss the past and miss their children.

"Well, we'll go back to see you next week." He Sihai said.

"Really?" Although thousands of miles away, He Sihai could feel her joy from the phone.

"Of course it's true, grandma should prepare more delicious food then."

"Sure, sure, but you don't need grandma to prepare it, your parents will prepare it. By the way, Taozi, let her come over and show grandma. Has she grown taller? Has she gained weight?" Grandma Happy authentic.

"How long has it been? How could it be possible to grow taller, Taozi, Taozi, come here, grandma wants to talk to you..."

He Sihai greeted Taozi who was sitting on the sofa and watching TV.

"Okay." Taozi said, sliding down from the sofa, but her eyes did not move away from the TV.

He Sihai reached out to pick up the remote control and paused the TV before Taozi realized it.

Xuanxuan and Wanwan, who were watching TV with her, also ran over, their three little heads huddled together in front of the camera, chattering, old grandma, grandma screaming.

Grandma greeted them one by one with a smile and asked them to come and play next week.

……

Silly and treacherously following the feeling, he kept floating and floating, and finally drifted to a place that felt a little familiar.

This is a utility pole by the side of the road, and on the utility pole there are a few words written with a brush, "Specially cure lamb madness, cure the disease with one hand."

Fragments of memory flashed in his mind.

A car was parked by the side of the road, and the gray-haired woman in the previous memory whispered something to him.

Like a silent movie, silent.

It's just that her eyes are full of reluctance and warmth.

He got into the car and waved to the woman, who waved back to him with her arms raised high.

The car had already driven a long way, and he saw the woman still standing under the telephone pole waving her arms, and his memory was frozen.

His stupid and treacherous eyes were still full of confusion, and he circled the telegraph pole in circles.

"wait for my return……"

"wait for my return……"

He murmured in a low voice, as if he was a migratory bird who had lost his way, not knowing where to go.

Just then, an old man carrying a hoe passed by his side.

The old man looked at the electric poles on the side of the road and sighed softly.

Chishagui also saw her, and felt that she was very kind and familiar to him, but there was no such old man in his memory.

When the old man walked over, he foolishly saw the handkerchief tied around her head...

"Mother?"

A gleam of light flashed in the stupid, treacherous and confused eyes, so he followed behind her.

Then he saw a commissary.

There was a smart smile on his stupid face, he recognized this canteen, he had this place in his memory.

But why did he come to this place?

Confusion flashed in the stupid and treacherous eyes again.

He followed the old man in blankly.

……

"Is it here?" He Sihai looked around and asked Xuanxuan beside him.

They are now standing on a narrow country road, with sparse villages on the right and patches of farmland on the left.

Xuan Xuan heard the words and pointed to the canteen in front.

He Sihai walked directly to the commissary, and Xuanxuan and Wanwan hurriedly followed hand in hand.

Then they saw an old man sitting at the door of the canteen and picking vegetables, while Zhishagui was squatting at the old man's feet in a daze, watching intently.

Seeing this, He Sihai didn't go forward, but asked Xuanxuan, let's find another one.

"Okay." Xuanxuan immediately responded when she heard the words, and then raised the soul-inducing lamp in her hand.

It seemed that a passage appeared in front of their eyes, and countless blurred scenes flashed around them. When they came out of the passage, they had already appeared on a barren mountain.

No, to be precise, they appeared above an abandoned mine.

The whole mountain was dug with big holes and small eyes. It must have just rained, and there was water everywhere. In a mountain depression, there were some collapsed houses with weeds growing waist high. I don’t know how long it had been abandoned. .

Fortunately, they are all in a weird state now, and they all use floating, otherwise it would be really difficult to leave.

"Where is the other trick you feel?" He Sihai asked Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan immediately pointed to the ground when she heard the words.

"underground?"

Xuanxuan nodded ignorantly upon hearing the words.

He Sihai glanced at the surrounding environment and suddenly understood.

This is an abandoned coal mine, the scale is not large, and the collapsed facilities look very simple.

Before it was abandoned, it should have been a private coal mine, the legendary black coal mine.

He Sihai was facing, and was about to walk towards the col, when he felt something behind him, and when he looked back, he saw Wanwan tugging on his skirt nervously, clinging to him.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." He Sihai reached out and took her little hand into his own.

Wanwan's tense expression seemed to be relieved, and Xuanxuan who was next to her saw it, and hurriedly put her little hand into He Sihai's other hand.

It seems that his two "assistants" can only be used as cute mascots.

He Sihai pulled them down the slope.

The bottom of the slope was in a mess, and there were even discarded mining tools, but they were all rusted or rotted. It looked as if the people in the mine left in such a hurry that they didn't have time to clean up their things.

He Sihai casually walked into an abandoned house and took a look.

Then I saw a dead bone lying on a rotten table, and most of the clothes on his body were rotten.

Xuanxuan and Wanwan were so frightened that they hurriedly hid behind He Sihai.

He Sihai was a little puzzled, and went to several other houses one after another, and sure enough, several bones were found one after another.

There are a total of nine of these abandoned houses.

Seven of them are used for office and stacking mining.

The bones found are basically in these seven rooms.

The other two should be dormitories for miners.

The reason for saying this is because these two rooms are very large, and the inside is full of Datong shop, the wooden boards have rotted, and they are full of weeds and insects and ants.

There is also a corpse on the Chase bunk in one of them.

Various plastic bags and some living utensils were discarded in the corner of the dormitory.

Judging from the year on these plastic bags, it was about 21 years ago.

According to He Sihai's guess, there should have been an accident in this coal mine 21 years ago, and everyone died in this accident.

He Sihai didn't know exactly how many died, because the number of bones found was too small, even if it was just a small private coal mine, there should be more than these few people.

And these bones are basically the managers of the mine.

And the miners who dig coal should all go down the mine.

He Sihai searched along the faint traces left on the road, and finally found a collapsed mine.

Chapter 580 Stone Statue

The wellhead of the mine is very small, which makes people feel very depressed, not to mention half collapsed.

He Sihai glanced down, it was dark and bottomless.

"I'll go down and have a look, you two are waiting for me up there." He Sihai said.

"No." The two little guys tugged on He Sihai's lapel and said in unison.

Needless to say Wanwan, even the courageous Xuanxuan, in this barren mountains and wild ridges, feels nervous in her heart.

"We want to be with you." Xuanxuan said.

Wan Wan nodded repeatedly beside her.

"But going down, wouldn't it be more terrifying?"

When Wanwan and Xuanxuan heard the words, they immediately showed a surprised expression, yes, it was scary.

"hiahia...with the boss around, I won't be afraid." Wanwan suddenly puffed up her stomach and said aggressively.

"Yes, I'm not afraid either." Xuan Xuan followed up.

"Really? But you two go back first, if something really happens, I'll invite you two over." He Sihai laughed.

"Okay."

He heard the words politely, but did not refuse.

Pulling Xuanxuan directly and waving her little hand, she disappeared without a trace in front of He Sihai, running extremely fast.

Because if I rush back now, I might still be able to eat the meals my mother cooked.

He Sihai smiled helplessly, and looked up at the night sky. This weird place is really scary.

Then he retracted his gaze and jumped down towards the mine.

The whole person floated down the mine, he was in a strange state now, and he was not afraid of falling to his death.

In fact, there are steel wire ropes next to the mine, but unfortunately most of them have decayed, and some have even been broken.

He Sihai floated erratically for about ten minutes before bottoming out, which was really deep enough, and of course it might have something to do with his being too light.

The whole mine was so dark that nothing could be seen at all.

Fortunately, He Sihai is not an ordinary person. Although he can't see his fingers, he still sees everything around him as if it were daytime, and he can see everything clearly.

The space in the mine was bigger and wider than he had imagined.

He Sihai was about to walk inside when he saw a dead bone next to him. What made He Sihai feel weird was that the dead bone curled up, as if he was in great pain.

This made He Sihai have to be cautious, reached out and touched the middle of the sleeve, and gained a little confidence, so he continued to walk into the mine.
