slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 56 Strange People

After dinner at the teacher's house, Cang Hai returned home, went to go abroad the next day, and then flew to Los Angeles after the completion. This is not the first time Cang Hai has come here, this time Cang Hai is more relaxed than the previous trip Too much, rented the campsite directly, then rented a car and rushed over.

When I got to the place, I saw that the original group of guys were still there, and the caravan I rented last year was still empty, so I settled down lively.

This trip was a bit easier, from time to time someone would come to Cang Hai for a drink, to attend a party or something, anyway, they could have one or two events a week, and life was much better than last time.

The only thing that makes Cang Hai depressed is that the trees here don't seem to welcome his arrival. Every time he touches a tree trunk, Cang Hai feels like being given the middle finger.Fortunately, the tree can't speak, and Cang Hai's skin is thick enough, and since they are all American trees, Cang Hai doesn't take it seriously, so he has been hanging on like this for a long time.

That night, when Cang Hai returned to the campsite, he found that there were guests in the camper van next to him. He stretched out his head and looked through the window and saw a figure moving around inside. After a bottle of wine, I went to the camp administrator for a drink.

Before he walked a few steps, he heard the door of the camping car behind him open. He turned his head and saw a fat middle-aged man in his fifties coming out of it.

This middle-aged man still looks like a Chinese. Not only does he look like a Chinese, but he also has an official temperament that Cang Hai is familiar with. One look at this man makes people think that he is an official. And he is a domestic official.

"Are you also here for tourism?" Cang Hai greeted in Chinese.

When the middle-aged man saw Cang Hai speak Chinese, he couldn't help but froze for a moment, then quickly recovered, smiled at Cang Hai, nodded, turned around and returned to the camper van.

Cang Hai felt that this person's reaction was quite strange, but he didn't go into it further, and continued to drink with the campground administrator with his wine.

Just like that, Cang Hai has a mysterious neighbor who is often bored in the camper van in the campsite. Cang Hai still leaves early and returns late, but this one hardly ever leaves the camper except when shopping for daily necessities and food. .

After getting along for a month, Cang Hai finally knew that this middle-aged man's surname was Gu, his name was Gu Peng, and he was a Chinese who came here for vacation with an American green card.

Of course, these were all said by Gu Peng himself. Cang Hai felt that these words were not very reliable. People of his age usually have to bring a wife or something when traveling, but this person didn’t bring anything, and his English is not good enough. It's really so-so, and you can simply pop out a few English words from your mouth.

People, once we get along, we get to know each other. After a month of getting along, Gu Peng gradually became friends with Cang Hai. The two chatted from time to time, and Cang Hai would also take him to a small drink or two. In less than two weeks, Gu Peng became acquainted with the administrators around him.

Apart from this, Cang Hai and Gu Peng are totally irrelevant, and Gu Peng didn't ask what Cang Hai did here, why he stayed here for so long, and Cang Hai didn't ask how Gu Peng got to this place where birds don't lay eggs. Here comes the place.

They got along like this for almost a month, and it seemed that the Chinese New Year was about to come, so Canghai planned to bring a few foreigners from the campsite together to celebrate the Chinese New Year.

Spring Festival couplets are indispensable for Chinese New Year, so Cang Hai borrowed an old pickup truck from the administrator to go to the city to buy things for Chinese New Year, mainly dumplings, dumpling stuffing, soy sauce and so on. Yes, there are a lot of Chinese in Los Angeles, and it's easy to find a Chinese supermarket, so it's not difficult to buy these things. I went to Canghai all morning to buy all these things.

Back at the campsite, when I reached the foot of the mountain, I saw a car parked next to it. Two young people, a man and a woman, were standing beside the car, reaching out to say hello to themselves.

Cang Hai thought that he had encountered some difficulties, so he pulled the car aside and prepared to lend a helping hand or something.

"Excuse me, how do I get to the campsite in National Sequoia Park?"

As soon as the car stopped, Cang Hai realized that the man and woman were all Asian in appearance, and in terms of temperament and facial expressions, they were most likely Chinese.The man looks 1.8 meters tall, with a very comfortable smile on his slightly fat face. The woman is also quite tall at 1.7 meters. There is a pair of big sunglasses stuck on it, so I can't tell the beauty from high to low, but from Cang Hai's observation, most of them may be beautiful.

"Can you speak Chinese?" Cang Hai asked.

"You can speak Chinese?" A surprised expression appeared on the man's face.

Cang Hai smiled and said, "I just came from China. I came here to hide for a while. Aren't you going to the campground in Sequoia National Park? Come on, I'm going there too, you just follow me."

The man smiled and said: "That's a coincidence, buddy, then we will follow you."

"It's okay, I'll bring it to you soon," Cang Hai said, then started the car and drove to the front.

The two people on the side of the road got into the car and followed Cang Hai's car, so the two cars drove towards the campsite one after the other.

When they arrived at the camp, the administrator was chatting with Gu Peng under the awning at the entrance of the camp. When they saw Cang Hai coming back in his car, they stood up with a smile.

"Have you bought everything?" Gu Peng asked with a smile, his eyes stayed on the car behind Cang Hai while speaking.

Cang Hai smiled and said, "I bought it. On the way, I met two compatriots who also came to camp. They got lost at the foot of the mountain, and I brought them here."

While talking, a man and a woman behind got out of the car. When Gu Peng saw the two of them, his whole face froze, and it turned pale again in a moment.

"I'm a little uncomfortable, I'm going back to the car." After finishing speaking, Gu Peng turned around and left.

Both Cang Hai and the administrator were stunned for a moment, but they quickly recovered, because Gu Peng was always like this, everyone thought he was a bit mental.

A man and a woman who got out of the car were very generous. They showed the check-in certificate in their hands to the administrator, and then the administrator took them to stop the car and allocate a campervan.

Cang Hai naturally unloaded all the things, took back his camper, and put everything in order. Cang Hai stood at the door of Gu Peng and knocked on the door lightly a few times: "Brother Gu, Brother Gu, you don’t feel well, do you want to get some medicine? Or see a doctor?”

"No need, Brother Cang, I'll take a rest for a while, you can do your work." Gu Peng said in the car, his voice was very low, revealing a sense of sadness.

Cang Hai said: "Then what do you need to call me?"

Hearing a humming sound from inside, Cang Hai lifted his feet and went back to his camper, and started to make lunch. After eating, he took the tent and continued to go deep into the forest. He placed it between the General Sherman tree and the General Grant tree. Formation, start to inhale.

These days, Cang Hai has absorbed the essence of life, which has already turned the brick walls around the space furnace black, but Cang Hai did not give up, thinking that he had consumed so much essence of life just by getting a kiwi tree. I can't suck as much as I can, so I continue to smoke, and prepare to suck until I have to leave.

There is nothing wrong with inhaling the essence of life. Anyway, no one can see it except Cang Hai. There is nothing wrong with it except that it is a bit boring.

But when Cang Hai returned to the camp, he found that the two new arrivals were standing at the door of Gu Peng's camper, knocking on the door.

"Mr. Gu, can we talk?" The man's voice was very kind.

Gu Peng's voice came from the camper: "I have nothing to talk to you."

"Mr. Gu!" The man continued.

Seeing Cang Hai coming back, the woman turned her head to look at Cang Hai, and then just stared at Cang Hai like an eagle watching a chicken, which made Cang Hai very unhappy.

"Hey, let me tell you two, don't disturb him if Master Gu doesn't want to see you, you are both here to travel, don't cause trouble for him," Cang Hai said.

The man smiled at Cang Hai and said, "Thank you for today's matter. My name is Yang Yanxing, and this is my friend Lu Shu."

"Hello, my name is Cang Hai, Cang from Cangtian, Hai from Haiyang." Cang Hai nodded at the two of them and introduced himself.

Yang Yanxing said: "Hello Mr. Cang".

"Don't call me Mr. Cang, just call me Xiao Cang, or just call me Cang Hai." Cang Hai is not used to being called Mr. Cang.

"Hello, Cang Hai, it's our first time here, can you tell us about life here?" Yang Yanxing said.

The man looks pleasing to the eye, but the woman looks a little bit sweet. Although the woman who took off the sunglasses looks very beautiful, there is always a disliked temperament about her body. It is not arrogant but a bit cold. As if someone owed her money.

"Okay, let's go into the house and talk." Cang Hai pointed at his camper, opened the door and signaled the two to enter the house and talk.

As soon as Yang Yanxing got into the camper, he boasted: "Cang Hai, your place is pretty clean."

"It's okay." Cang Hai said politely, motioning for the two to sit down, then picked up the electric kettle, and started to boil water for the two to make tea.

Seeing the two turn their heads to visit his camper, Cang Hai doesn’t say much, anyway, valuable and useful things are stored in the space, and if everything in the camper is stolen, Cang Hai doesn’t feel distressed .
