The winter on the calendar is coming to an end, but it seems that the winter in the small mountains is not over yet.The snow has piled up very high, and it adorns the originally steep mountain even higher.The sun has been showing its face for a long time, and the whole small mountain area has always been lingering in a gloomy and cold atmosphere.In such weather, Gu Chuan's teacher pulled out a quilt for him with rags.Although the quilt was not too thick, it added some warmth to some extent.

In such a cold winter, Gu Chuan's complexion has not been very good.Like snow in winter, it looks pale and transparent.The teacher was very worried about his condition, but he measured his body temperature several times with a thermometer, and there was no fever.The teacher also invited an old doctor to come over to show Gu Chuan, but he didn't see any problem.

The footsteps of the unified examination were getting closer and closer, but during this period, there was another heavy snowfall in the mountains. The atmosphere in the whole mountain area suddenly dropped overnight, and many people were frostbitten.The number of children who insist on going to school on the snow has gradually decreased. Some of them need to be taken care of because their family members are sick, and some are unable to go to school because they are sick.

In such an environment, it would be better for Gu Chuan to live in the school dormitory.He doesn't need to get up early every day to climb mountains, and he doesn't need to be shivering outside in the snowstorm.But even so, Gu Chuan's body was visibly thinned.Even if the person in charge of food distribution sympathized with him and gave him an extra spoonful of rice every time, he just didn't eat fat.

In fact, there is no new content in the class. Most of the time, the teacher is reviewing the knowledge points taught before.When Gu Chuan was writing a letter in the notebook with a pen, his new deskmate suddenly came over. He looked at Gu Chuan enviously and said, "Your handwriting is so beautiful."

Gu Chuan glanced at him and said nothing.

"How can I write beautiful calligraphy like yours?" asked the deskmate, "I heard from the teacher that if you practice calligraphy, you can copy it with a thin layer of paper, and you can write it a few times. The words are exactly the same."

Gu Chuan responded: "That is also a way, but the characters still have to have some characteristics of their own."

"I don't need special features, I just think your handwriting is very beautiful." The deskmate blinked and looked at Gu Chuan, he sniffed and asked sincerely: "Chuan Zi, can you give me your handwriting practice book? I want to practice according to your handwriting, and then write as beautifully as your handwriting."

Gu Chuan didn't have any objection to this, he directly gave the notebook in the drawer to the deskmate, but he still reminded him: "The unified examination is coming soon, if you want to practice calligraphy, you can wait until the unified examination is over."

"My grades are not good, and I'm afraid there's nothing I can do about it in the unified examination." The deskmate was full of Buddhism, and he said, "I'm probably not born to be able to read. Being able to read and write is already very impressive. Wait for me After practicing your calligraphy, I will write letters to others in the mountains, or be a teacher teaching everyone to write."

Seeing his determined face, Gu Chuan didn't say anything more.

Until the eve of the unified examination, the wind and snow in the mountains did not stop.In such a snowstorm, Gu Chuan could barely move at school.Therefore, the school has temporarily suspended classes, allowing students to study at home on their own.Gu Chuan lay on the bed when he was alone in the dormitory. He knew that he couldn't lie down like this all the time, but he couldn't get up, and his body was always very weak.Especially the place where the black marks on the arm are completely uninteresting.He has been observing his physical condition, and he noticed that the bruise seems to be spreading.

When the teacher invited an old doctor for him, the old doctor actually saw the black marks on his body, and his expression was so indescribable.The old doctor is not a very professional doctor, and finally he reluctantly explained to Gu Chuan in his own words: "Your situation is equivalent to the necrosis of the blood vessels under the black marks, and it is not completely dead. The blood flow is still normal. Yes, but... that will happen sooner or later. Your body is very poor, and a slight bump in the past will leave marks on your body for a long time. Did you do something violent this time? For example, tie it with a rope Playing with your arms? Your condition is too serious, I really can't help it."

After hearing this, Gu Chuan didn't change much in his mood. He calmly put forward his request: "Take this matter as a secret between us, don't tell others."

"But—" the old doctor wanted to speak, but Gu Chuan stopped him: "I don't want my family to worry about me."

The old doctor reluctantly agreed. He didn't know how to deal with this child, Gu Chuan. He was always soft-hearted and easily led by the other party, and he didn't dare to resist his request at all.It's just that the old doctor was still too worried about the situation. This time he overcame Gu Chuan's deterrence, found Gu Chuan's home after leaving school, and wanted to tell his mother about his condition.It's just that when he walked into the wooden house, he found that it was very cold inside, as if no one had lived here for a long time.Only then did the old doctor realize that not long ago, Grandma left the mountain and went to the city.

After being emptied, the old doctor had no choice but to go home.

Gu Chuan's sleeping time is getting longer and longer, so long that sometimes he can't realize how many days and nights he has slept when he wakes up.Gu Chuan is not worried about his body, but he is worried that he will delay the time to find Gu Yu'an.So every time he wakes up, he will write a lot of letters, and then wait for the uncle who delivered the newspaper to come, and then ask him to help bring them to the city.

Until the end of the unified examination, Gu Chuan did not receive any news.

Probably feeling the joy of everyone being liberated, the continuous cold winter finally ushered in the sun on the day when the unified examination ended.The golden sun, which has not been seen for a long time, warmly sprinkled on the ground, melting the thick snow little by little.Seeing this situation, Gu Chuan rolled his luggage and wanted to go down the mountain to go home that day, but was rejected by the teacher, who forced him to stay for a few days until the snow cleared completely, and Uncle Ashan came to pick him up, so the teacher was reluctant let go.

Uncle Ashan looked a lot thinner, and there were heavy dark circles under his eyes.When he saw Gu Chuan, a smile finally appeared on his expressionless face. "How did you do in the exam?" Uncle Ah Shan asked.

"good."

"You must have done well in the exam." Uncle Ah Shan seemed to believe in Gu Chuan, he said: "Grandma always praises you for your excellent homework, you are very smart, and you are the pillar of the country."

"..."

Uncle Ashan said these few words very sincerely, but the chat along the way seemed abrupt. He seemed to be chatting with Gu Chuan deliberately.Gu Chuan sensed that Uncle Ah Shan was in a bad mood, so he didn't stay silent, but asked directly: "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Uncle Ah Shan smiled again, "I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you."

"Did something happen at home?"

"……nothing."

It's just that such a denial seems to be hiding something, Gu Chuan was silent for a while, a trace of the same emotion slipped through his heart, but he didn't show it.The atmosphere suddenly became quiet like this, and Uncle Ah Shan didn't say anything along the way, but when he got down the mountain and stood at the mountain pass, he took out a white paper flower and pinned it on Gu Chuan's chest clothes.

Gu Chuan looked at him solemnly.

Uncle Ashan looked at him, and now there was a sincere smile on his face, but such a real smile was ugly and distorted, and his crooked eyes were filled with tears. He said dryly: "Mom, let's go!" gone."

Gu Chuan didn't cry, he asked quietly, "When did you leave?"

"Three days ago," Uncle Ah Shan replied, "She didn't want you to worry, so she refused to let us tell you."

"Then why are you telling me now?"

"Because you are her son."

"..."

This conversation was full of contradictions, but Gu Chuan didn't want to pursue what happened in it.He walked towards his family's wooden house step by step, his steps changed from a slow walk at the beginning to a brisk walk, and in the end he was already running.He ran to the door with a painful heart, saw the wreaths and people in white clothes inside, and knew that all this was true.

"She walked very peacefully," Uncle Ah Shan said beside him, "She left with a smile."

Furukawa looked at him.

"She asked me to say sorry to you," Uncle Ashan said, "She lied to you, and An An didn't come back."

"I know."

"you know?"

Gu Chuan moved his eyes away, and said softly, "I probably guessed it."

Uncle Ashan choked up for a moment, at this moment he felt that Gu Chuan was really good and made people feel distressed.He took a deep breath, and then said to Gu Chuan with increased weight: "From now on, uncle will take care of you, uncle treats you as a family member, and uncle will help you find An An!"

Gu Chuan did not refuse his kindness.

The work in the mountains is very streamlined, and soon the grandmother's work is done.Not long after the matter was finished, Gu Chuan's unified examination results came out.In such a remote mountainous area, Gu Chuan took the No.1 test.The teachers at the school saw Gu Chuan's excellent grades, so they couldn't help but inquired about the grades of the people in the city outside. They were shocked when they inquired. Gu Chuan's grades were ranked first in the whole country.

The results of the unified examination are ranked nationally, and many schools recruit students according to their rankings.When they found that the No.1 student was not in those top schools, they started looking for Gu Chuan.They searched and searched, and finally found a small mountain area. Those media reporters drove to this remote mountainous area in a big car with microphones and cameras.

This shook the mountains.

Although many people in the mountainous area know that there are big cities outside, they have never been outside. The impression of a big city is probably that it is a bigger place. People there can raise a lot of poultry, so they can eat it almost every day. Meat.I don't think there is much difference between the city people and them.It's just that after seeing so many weird high-tech now, the old thinking of those mountain people has finally been broken.

After the media reporters left, those who had lived in the mountains for generations were silent when they returned home.They looked at the crude pots and pans in their houses, at the rough clothes worn by their family members, and thought about the white and soft cloth on those reporters. They were silent for a long, long time.The noisy media reporters collected enough materials and left in style, but they didn't know how deep an impression they had brought to the people in the mountain area, nor did they know how much they had brought to this backward mountain area. what effect.

Not long after the results of the unified examination came out, there were somehow more tourists in the mountain area. Those tourists were always surprised by the plants and trees in the mountain area, especially when they saw people in simple clothes. It also showed obvious compassion.Under such circumstances, the people in the mountainous area changed quietly. The people who used to only farm the land started to start a tourist business, recommending the specialties of the mountain to those outsiders.Some people dragged foreign tourists to help bring things, and then put on beautiful and soft chiffon shirts in the mountains.

The mountainous area, which seemed to have no connection with the outside world, seems to have built a bridge to the outside world overnight.I don't know when, a piece of courier was also transported to the mountain.On the first day when the courier station was stationed in the mountains, Gu Chuan received a letter with a name on the envelope - Gu Yu'an (send).

The moment Gu Chuan opened the envelope, what he heard was not the sound of the envelope being ripped, but the mechanical sound of the system—"Life is counting down."
