his dragon [farming]

As soon as he got off the dilapidated bus, Shen Qiuhe heard the phone in his backpack ringing non-stop.

It turned out that it was Wang Junxu calling.Qiu He was facing the phone, exhausted for five seconds, and finally pressed the call button.

During this time, Wang Junxu harassed him crazily and called him many times, but this was the first time Qiuhe answered.The mobile phone signal is not good, and among the stabbing noises, Wang Junxu yelled ecstatically: "Qiu He! Is it you? Where are you now? How are you?"

Qiu He kept silent, and when the other side started to yell non-stop, he said three words bluntly: "I'm fine."

This cold tone made Wang Junxu fall from ecstasy.He said tearfully: "Qiuhe, are you still blaming me? You can beat me and scold me, but don't ignore me! Where have you been? Did your mother force you to leave? You Say, did your mother force you?"

Qiu Hexin said, damn it, it's all because of your mother!

But of course a good boy like him couldn't say such words, so Qiu He thought for a while and said honestly, "I'm out of town."

Hearing this, Wang Junxu cheered up again, "I'll look for you right away! I also ran away from home, and I'll go to your place right away. Where are you, Qiuhe?"

Qiu He sighed, scratched her hair in distress, and decided to speak more directly, "Wang Junxu, I don't like you, and I don't want you to come to me. I can't tell you where I am."

He always treats people with a little bit of affection. When it comes to this level, no matter how affectionate Wang Junxu is, he has been hit hard.But after a moment of silence, Wang Junxu changed his begging tone and almost howled, "Qiuhe, I promise, I will never do that kind of thing again, don't be so cruel..."

It’s okay if he didn’t mention it, but when he mentioned it, Qiuhe immediately thought of the bear hug and the unbearable confession, embarrassed, angry, and aggrieved, and rarely said forcefully: “I don’t want to talk about it anymore! Don't contact me again! Goodbye! Goodbye!"

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone. After a while, the phone rang relentlessly. Qiu He looked at it, hung up decisively, turned off the phone, and threw the phone into his backpack.

Then he surveyed his surroundings.Can't help but stunned.

Is this Liangshi Town?

The 17-year-old boy, wearing a hooded pullover and knee-length jeans, is tall and slender, with beautiful eyebrows, clean and stylish as if he just stepped off the cover of a magazine. He is standing on a bridge near the town at the moment, with the surrounding rural scenery out of place.

The boy sighed from the bottom of his heart, with a little bewilderment in his eyes.

According to Shen Lin, standing on the bridge and looking towards the east side of the mountain, you can see a large white protruding rock on the main peak. There are many legends about the gods resting here to enjoy the cool air, so the town is named Liangshi Town.

But now, except for the white mist, Qiu He couldn't see anything.

When he got out of the car with his backpack in his hand, he found himself standing by a river with a small bridge on it, and the legendary Liangshi Town was shrouded in a thick fog and disappeared.Because of that hasty phone call, Qiu He didn't have time to wear a mask, and was very worried that he would cough.

However, it turned out to be okay.

The air is very clean.Qiu He soon discovered that the fog here was significantly different from the fog in J City where he lived. J City also often has fog, but the fog is very dry, yellow-green, suspended in the air like a ball of dirty cotton that clogs the nose; while the fog here is white, very moist, flowing through the skin, even in midsummer Inside, I also feel a coolness.

Qiuhe stood on the bridge and thought in disbelief, how did I come here?Is this where I am going to live?

More than a month ago, he was still studying in a key high school in J City.On a Friday evening, when a late teacher left school, he found two entangled students.Even though it was a key high school, the teenagers were always turbulent inside, and it was nothing new to fall in love behind the teacher's back, but this time the teacher was shocked to find that the two kids kissing were boys.

Those two teenagers were Qiu He and Wang Junxu.After being smashed by the teacher, Qiuhe suffered from asthma on the spot. If there was not a hospital nearby, the consequences would be unpredictable.

During the school's investigation, the two students involved had completely different statements about the same incident.One said he was being harassed, while the other insisted they were in a relationship.But no matter what kind of statement it is, it eventually caused an uproar in the school. Parents from both sides were invited to talk. A vice principal told the whole thing politely and flashingly, hoping that the parents would take the initiative to consider dropping out or transferring to another school.

Qiuhe's mother, Shen Lin, rushed to the hospital immediately after receiving the call. Seeing her aggrieved and weak son, she comforted her and then rushed to school without stopping.I don't know how she negotiated with the school, but in the end, Wang Junxu was quietly persuaded to leave. The external reason was that she wanted to study abroad, while Qiu He was suspended for a year due to health reasons.

Shen Lin has a small printing company in J City, and is often honored as Mr. Shen.Although Boss Shen was resentful because of this incident, but on second thought, because her son was beautiful and good-natured, from kindergarten to high school, he had received as many as [-] confessions from kindergarten to high school.So it can't be said that this incident has nothing to do with him. The most urgent thing is to minimize the adverse impact of this incident on the child.

What's more, even if this incident did not happen, Qiuhe would not be able to continue living in J City.

The smoke and exhaust that filled every part of J City made Qiu He's lungs and respiratory system as fragile as a layer of egg skin, which would collapse at the touch of a finger.Not only the asthma in the early years could not be cured for a long time, but in the past two years, a new cough has appeared.Every breath becomes more and more like an adventure. I don’t know when it will trigger an unpredictable cough, coughing up tears, coughing up blood, coughing out whole lungs and even internal organs. I can't help the itching and pain in my chest.

Doctors had previously advised them to move.Shen Lin once considered studying abroad and emigrating, looking for a beautiful foreign town to live in.But Mr. Shen went out after graduating from junior high school. Although he can say black into white and male into female in Chinese, he can't understand a word of foreign language.If you let her son go abroad alone, and worry about his health, this worry has been added recently. She is afraid that Qiuhe will be led astray by dubious people, so she thinks again and again, and finally puts Qiu He sent back to her hometown, Liangshi Town.

"Honestly, go live with the old man for a while! I don't worry about where you go alone! Don't even think about going abroad! Just like you, if something happens, the day lily will be cold when I rush over there !"

The old man in Shen Lin's mouth refers to her father, Shen Baocheng, Qiuhe's grandfather.More than ten years ago, the father and daughter had a big quarrel, and they have never had any contact since then.According to Shen Lin, the old man has a weird temper and paranoid personality, and is almost useless, but when it comes to a critical moment, she immediately thinks of the old man who lives in a small mountain town and has not seen him for more than ten years.

She sent Qiuhe to the county seat and put it in a car, but she didn't intend to go with her.

"When the old man saw me, he must find fault and quarrel! All these years, I have been annoyed by him!" After complaining, she said sweetly: "You are different, you are his only grandson! Go, Be good! Get along well with grandpa!"

Qiu He thought, I am his grandson, but you are his daughter!

So Qiuhe got into the car alone and said angrily, "I'm very angry!"

It's no use getting angry.Shen Lin is used to repaying favors, always saying: "You can't let me worry? I'm a woman who didn't even remarry because of you!", nagging until driving, Qiu He wanted to ask her to call grandpa Didn't put the phone in his mouth.

Now, Qiu He knew the answer.Shen Lin obviously didn't notify the old man to pick her up, and Qiu He didn't even know where grandpa lived!

Standing in Liangshi Town, Qiu He looked around in a daze, and sighed resignedly.

Walking across the small bridge, you can faintly see residential houses in the white mist, the town is silent, and a few birds are singing from far and near, creating a scene of empty mountains and valleys.Fortunately, Qiu He vaguely saw a supermarket under a big tree at the end of the bridge.The reason why I judged that it was a supermarket was because there were two big words written in white ash on the wall: supermarket.

The gate of the supermarket is actually the old-fashioned row of doors, which are lowered and placed next to the wall, with a dripping mop standing on one side.Qiuhe walked in and looked with his head. The inside was dark and deep, and there was no one there, only rows of steel shelves.

In the summer, he felt cold for a while, as if he had stepped into a horror movie.

Just as he was wondering, he suddenly heard a creaking sound from behind, and several tall cardboard boxes came out from the door.The stack of boxes moved between the shelves and fell firmly to the ground.A woman's face emerges from behind the box.

The woman is about 40 years old, with a red face and permed fluffy curly hair.She saw Qiuhe standing by the door at a glance, hurriedly brushed the blue cloth smock on her body, walked over, looked Qiuhe up and down, and asked with a strange expression: "Hey, whose family are you from? Why do I look like you?" Have you ever seen it?"

Qiuhe nodded and smiled at her quickly.

He looks fair and sweet, and when he smiles, he looks harmless to humans and animals, and he is very lethal to middle-aged and elderly women.After showing his smile, Qiu He introduced himself and said, "Hello, Auntie. I'm looking for my grandfather from another place. His name is Shen Baocheng. Do you know where he lives?"

The middle-aged woman looked at him and yelled. She was instantly surprised and excited, mixed with some inexplicable inquiries. She nodded and said loudly: "I see! You are Pomegranate's baby." Oh, look at these eyebrows and eyes, exactly the same as when Pomegranate was a child! How did the children in the city grow up? They just look good! ——Why are you alone? Pomegranate didn’t come back with you?”

She is like a clucking hen, with only her own strength, she created a room full of excitement, and her enthusiasm was so overwhelming that Qiuhe couldn't stand it.Qiu He thought, who is Pomegranate?Could it be that Shen Lin still has such a rural nickname?

He could only scratch his head and said shyly, "Are you talking about my mother? She can't come back because of something, so let me stay with my grandfather for a while....Do you know where my grandfather lives?"

"Oh, how pitiful! The child has been away from home for a long time, and he doesn't even know which way to open the door of the grandfather's house! Oh, how pitiful!"

The woman sighed, pulling Qiuhe out of the gate, she raised her hand and pointed at the white mist, and said, "Go straight along this road, turn left at an old Pulang fruit tree, and go up the slope. It's only two steps away. There is a big pomegranate tree in front of your grandfather's gate, and you can see it from a long distance."

A confusion thicker than fog appeared on the boy's face.

My God, the old Pulang fruit tree?pomegranate tree?Doesn't this damned place have a street and a house number?

He looked at the woman with a look of embarrassment, and the woman also became embarrassed when he saw him, "I can't leave now, or I will take you there. It's not far away."

As he spoke, he suddenly became firm again, "Come in and sit for a while, and I'll send you there after I've laid out the goods!"

Qiu He quickly declined: "No need for Auntie, I can ask all the way."

That being said, he doubted whether he could meet other people in this foggy town.

The woman enthusiastically pulled Qiuhe into the supermarket, her tone undeniable, "Come in and wait! I'll see you off in a while!"

The two were arguing at the door, when a tall figure loomed in the fog, like Moses parting the sea, slowly coming through the white fog, until he reached the front of the supermarket.

Qiuhe saw that it turned out to be a boy about his own age. He looked like an adult in height, but his face still had the childishness of a teenager.

When the man passed the door, he glanced at Qiuhe and the woman from under the brim of his low peaked cap, passed them by, and went silently to the shelves.

Qiu He was taken aback for a moment.His first feeling was surprise.Unexpectedly, there will be such a person in a small town in the mountains.The boy was very white, extremely white, even compared to the white chicken Qiuhe from the city, he was still too white.The white skin set off the black and deep eyebrows, so vivid that it even gave people a sharp feeling.

Qiu He was particularly impressed by those eyes.It was unusually black, bright and clear, but Qiuhe had a strange feeling, as if seeing a pair of bison's eyes on the perilous grassland.

The man came back soon. He put two bags of salt, a piece of toothpaste and a 20 yuan bill on the cash register. He lowered his head and did not make a sound. He just stood there with his hands on the cash register. wait.

Qiuhe even noticed that he lowered the brim of his hat, which was already low.

The woman in the blue smock hurried to the cashier, which looked like an old school desk, gave him change, and when she handed the money to the man, the woman hesitated and said, "Bai Chuan , this is the grandson of Uncle Shen’s family—what’s his name?”

"Shen Qiuhe." Qiuhe answered hurriedly.

"Qiuhe has just arrived in town and doesn't know the way. Take him with you when you go back."

After she finished speaking, there was a strange silence in the supermarket, which was so long that both Qiu He and the woman became embarrassed.

Qiu He was about to decline politely, but the boy named Bai Chuan gave a light hum, looked at Qiu He again, picked up his things, passed him, and went out the door on his own.

The woman hurriedly pouted at his back, and encouraged Qiu He in a low voice, "Bai Chuan just doesn't like to talk to people, he is not bad! He lives next to your grandfather's house, you can just follow. Don't worry! The fog will clear in a while, don't get lost of."

Qiu He agreed, turned around and walked out, the woman said enthusiastically again: "Come and play tomorrow."

"Hey!" Qiu He waved at the female boss, then turned around and picked up her backpack, striding to catch up with the receding figure.
