Chapter 22 Wildfire
Dusk kisses the earth goodbye, and night comes.

As if thick ink was poured from the sky, the field gradually darkened, and the towering ancient trees were hidden in the dim sight.

Those swaying figures gradually lost their faces.

The stage became lively again, the suona and the drum beat together, the music was melodious and vigorous, drifting towards the blue sky.The Yao singers in costumes sang and danced, and sang the powerful Yao family wine song.

Although there are still countless heads laughing towards the stage, it is far less solemn and enthusiastic than the daytime scene.The distinguished guests who sat on the rostrum during the day have all left.The rostrum was also removed, and the tables and chairs were moved around by the villagers who were familiar with the township government staff. On some tables, there were more than a dozen adults and children standing on them. Fortunately, the tables were made of oak wood from the mountains. , very strong.

The journalists of the media are here again, still very active.Some of them stared at the stage, and some of them were as flexible as oily mice, catching information everywhere.

On such a night, there is another very powerful function, which is the tryst of young men and women.Although they don't have to sing to each other anymore, they still look at each other.

The weather is already cold, but the young woman from the Yao family is still wearing a loose skirt.It is said that there is nothing else in their skirts.If a boy catches eyes with a girl, he can boldly take her away.Under the trees in the mountains and the grass in the wild, they can all be their resting places.

Guo Zisu sat beside the basket with Chunhua.Chunhua held the soles of her shoes and hummed softly along with the people on the stage.There were a few stalks of corn left in the basket, and she earned a lot of money today, Chunhua was very happy.

The boring Guo Zisu wanted to take a walk around the center of the venue, but seeing Reporter Wang still dangling with his camera on his shoulders, she didn't want to get into his camera for no reason, so she walked out of the venue.

Minrou was standing on Shanfu's truck with a large group of people. When he saw Guo Zisu, he shouted loudly, "Teacher Guo, where are you going?"

Guo Zisu smiled, and when she saw Liang Shi smiling at her by the truck, she beckoned.

Liang Shi immediately strode over and asked, "Do you want to go back?"

Guo Zisu nodded and said, "Sister Chunhua only has 5 corns left. Sister Chunhua, the minced meat, and I will each eat one. You will eat two and go back after eating?"

Liang Shi smiled, and was about to say something when the phone rang.It was Xiaomi calling.He glanced at Guo Zisu sheepishly, connected the phone, and walked away while talking.

Guo Zisu looked at his back, feeling a touch of melancholy in his heart.On this amorous night, how she wished that there was also a piece of sweet tenderness in her heart to think about.However, even though she was born like a flower and a jade, has a youthful heart, has never lacked suitors, and has had a crush on others, but has never met a real like-minded person. "Meeting the right person at the right time" seems to have never happened to her.

In the distance, there are towering mountain peaks, one after another, the mountain moon hangs quietly in the sky, and the silver-like light shines down, shining brightly between the heaven and the earth.Guo Zisu leaned against a big tree, staring at the bright moon in a trance, she couldn't help but feel homesick and miss her mother again.

"Teacher Guo" minced meat ran over and got into Guo Zisu's arms.

"Minced meat, why don't you stay in the truck? Don't you go to the theater?"

"I want to pee," Min Rou said embarrassingly, with one hand touching the waist of his trousers and the other on his waist, with his head slightly lowered.

Guo Zisu looked around, then took his hand and prepared to go to the government building to find a toilet.

Min Rou shook off her hand, pointed to the forest not far away and said, "Ms. Guo, I'm going to pee on the side of the mountain. My father used to take me there to pee." After finishing speaking, he trotted all the way.

Guo Zisu followed immediately.

To the side of the mountain.Minrou found a tree shadow, made a face at Guo Zisu, and said, "Teacher Guo, turn around and help me block it, so that no one else can see it."

Guo Zisu smiled noncommittally, and turned around as he said.

"Father!" Min Rou suddenly yelled, followed by the sound of crackling footsteps.

Guo Zisu turned around and saw Minced Meat running up the hill on the weeds, yelling "Daddy, Daddy" incessantly.Looking in the direction in which Minced Meat ran, I saw a man and a woman holding hands and heading into the woods on the mountain. The man's back looked like a rock.

Stone? !Guo Zisu was startled.She quickly turned her head to look at Chunhua, and immediately went after the minced meat, shouting as she chased, "Minced meat, where are you going? Come back quickly."

"I'm going to find my father." Minced Meat still ran through the grass towards the mountain, continuing to yell loudly.

"Minced meat, be obedient, that's not your father, come on, go with the teacher to mom." Guo Zisu grabbed the minced meat and said eagerly.At this moment, she didn't know if that figure was a rock or not, her heart was in a mess, and she just wanted to quickly coax the minced meat down the mountain.

Min Rou shook off her hand vigorously, and said firmly, "It's my father, I recognize it, I can see it clearly."

Chunhua heard the noise and ran over dragging her pannier, and she shouted anxiously: "My boy, what are you doing up the mountain? Come down quickly, there are wild things biting people on the mountain."

Unexpectedly, when Minrou heard her mother say that there are wild animals biting people on the mountain, she burst into tears, and continued to drill into the mountain while crying: "I want to find my father, wild animals will bite my father."

Chunhua threw down her basket and ran up the mountain, crying out in a crying voice, "Baby boy, your dad went to the next village to play cards and didn't come here. Come down quickly and go back with mom."

"I saw my father and an aunt go into the mountains." Minrou said tearfully, and continued to rush forward.

Chunhua's face immediately changed. Shitou often went out to play cards and didn't come back in the middle of the night, but he was still very family-friendly in other respects. She didn't dare to think that he would have other thoughts.Thinking of this, she grabbed Minrou's hand and said in a trembling voice: "Hey, you must have read it wrong, come, go home with mom."

Guo Zisu felt very sad, but she didn't want the truth of the matter to be revealed now, so she quickly bent over to coax Minced Meat: "Come on, let's go home."

But minced meat didn't understand the adult's mind at all. He was still thinking about how his father would be bitten or eaten by wild animals if he went into the mountains.He stopped and looked at Chunhua pitifully: "Mom, don't you want Dad to come home?"

"Father is at home. That's someone else. You read it wrong. Come on, let's go back." Chunhua wanted to go home wholeheartedly to verify that Shitou hadn't come here. She was also very afraid of seeing what she didn't want to see here. , and roughly led the minced meat down the mountain.

At this time, there was a noise from the bushes beside them. A woman in a flowered dress cried and slammed into a man vigorously, cursing as she hit, "You time ghost who has been beaten by thousands of knives, You lied to me, I told you to lie to me, I told you to lie to me!", I don't know what the woman was slapping and making noises.

In the flickering light and shadow, both Chunhua and Guo Zisu could see clearly that the man was indeed a stone.
