warm and deep

Chapter 36
Early in the morning, Guo Zisu got up early, tidied up, and set off to go to Uncle Bone's house.

Halfway there, she remembered something, ran home again, and put the embroidered pouch that Chunhua had given her into her pocket.

When she got to Uncle Gu's house, Liang Shi and Zeng Wenwei had already arrived. The two men were busy cooking in the kitchen, calling for her to help.

While eating, the minced meat also came.He picked up the packing box of the cloth wardrobe that Guo Zisu had thrown away, and filled it with his drawing board and other tools, turning it into a painting toolbox.

As soon as he came, Zeng Zihao, who was eating, cheered and was about to throw down the bowl and chopsticks.

Zeng Wenwei persuaded: "Zihao, only play with minced meat when you are full."

Guo Zisu asked Minced Meat: "You came over so soon after eating? Mom didn't ask you to work?"

Min Rou looked at the dishes on the table, swallowed, and remained silent.

Uncle Bone looked at his greedy eyes, laughed, and said, "Mr. Guo, bring a bowl and put a bowl of cuttlefish lean meat soup for the minced meat. The child has grown a lot after eating it."

He said to the minced meat again: "Go to the room and move a chair to sit next to the uncle."

The minced meat didn't wait for Uncle Bone to finish speaking, and he moved a chair over. Uncle Bone laughed cheerfully again: "This kid is really smart, and he is very capable when it comes to critical moments."

After Min Rou sat down, he didn't speak, picked up the bowl and drank half a bowl of soup in one breath, raised his head, and snorted comfortably like a calf, making everyone at the table laugh stand up.

The sun had already shone into the kitchen, Liang Shi and Zeng Wenwei hurried up the mountain, and when they were full, they put down the dishes and went to the room to change their equipment.

They quickly put on their jackets, quick-drying pants, and hiking shoes, put the medicines, wading shoes, and climbing ropes that Guo Zisu had prepared for them into their hiking bags, and got ready to set off with walking sticks.

Guo Zisu reminded again: "Have you all brought your mobile phones?"

Zeng Wenwei nodded.

Liang Shi said: "My mobile phone is too big to carry with me. Mr. Zeng can do it."

Guo Zisu's eyes flickered, she smiled mischievously, took out the embroidered pouch from her pocket, shook it, and said softly, "This is embroidered by Sister Chunhua, it just fits your phone."

Liang Shi stared at her blankly, although his heart was a little turbulent, but there was a harmless expression on his face.

Guo Zisu touched his hand shyly: "Where is the phone?"

Liang Shi hurriedly pointed to Uncle Finger Bone's cabinet.

Guo Zisu walked over lightly, took out Liang Shi's mobile phone from the cabinet, and put it gently into the embroidered purse.Approaching Liang Shi, he lifted up his jacket, stuffed the purse into his trouser pocket, and tied the thin strap of the purse tightly to his inner trouser waist.Then he straightened the front of the jacket for him, and said softly, "It's done."

Liang Shi quietly let her play with her, didn't speak, just smiled and nodded at her.

Guo Zisu held Minrou's hand and sent Liang Shi and the others outside the door. Minrou raised his little hand and waved childishly, "Uncle Liang, you and Uncle Zeng will come back early."

Liang Shi and Zeng Wenwei smiled back, waved their hands, and strode forward.

The sunshine of Dongyang is warm but not blazing, flowing like notes on a harp, refreshing and pleasing to the eye.The sky is clear and blue, the clouds are not stained, the distant mountains are covered with black, the gentle breeze brushes their faces, and the sound of birds is heard in the distance.

Since Zeng Wenwei had already been there once, he was relatively familiar with it, so he led the way ahead.They avoided thorns and bushes as much as possible along the way, and walked in the gaps to avoid encountering hornet's nests.In order not to get lost when they came back, they tied a piece of rag as a road sign every time they walked a short distance.

Winter is here, and most of the leaves on the mountain have fallen and spread on the ground, slowly disappearing with the passage of time.Occasionally there is a breeze in the mountains, and the slender branches will sway, playing a thin melody. If a few wild fruits also fall at this time and make a crackling sound, it will be more charming.

Liang Shi almost forgot that Zeng Wenwei returned from here in a disastrous defeat the day before yesterday. His joy was indescribable, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he took off his goggles, looked around, and was almost fascinated by the beautiful mountain scenery.

"Buzz buzz! Buzz buzz!" Suddenly there was a loud chirp in front of him. Liang Shi grew up in the city and had never seen a wasp before, so he didn't know what was overwhelming in front of him.

"Quickly squat down!" Zeng Wenwei yelled in a suppressed voice, turned back hastily, grabbed Liang Shi and squatted down on the ground, burying his head deeply in his knees.

Liang Shi lowered his head, and more violent buzzing came from his ears. He tilted his head secretly and looked into the sky, and saw thousands of bee swarms, calling, flying and circling among the trees, circling Going around, for a while, it looks like dark clouds pressing down, and for a while, it looks like black crows returning to their nests. The scene is spectacular and grotesque.

Suddenly, a giant hornet leaned over and rushed over. Liang Shi was watching the bee formation curiously, and there was no time to dodge it.He blinked his eyelids subconsciously in a panic, and the giant bee landed on his eyelids.

Liang Shi, whose heart was in his throat, had to gently close his eyes, hold his breath, and dare not move.I blame myself for being fascinated by the beautiful scenery, so I took off the goggles... Oh, why are the hornet's eyes so sharp.

Seeing this, Zeng Wenwei, who was still holding his arm, didn't dare to vent his anger, and said in his heart: "Everything has a cause and effect. If God wants to punish, then punish me. Anyway, I'm already injured. It doesn't matter once."

The poisonous wasp didn't even realize that it was stepping on the eyelids of a handsome guy. It was still singing hummingly, twisting its Miaoman's body in the breeze, its slender hairy legs exerting force. I stomped on the soft meat blanket underneath, jumped a few times, saw the swarm of bees flying far away, screamed, raised my hairy pole, raised my round potato-like head, and rushed towards the swarm of bees like an arrow.

Squatting there like a sculpture, watching the swarm of bees fly away, Liang Shi and Zeng Wenwei let out a long breath, stretched their hands and feet, stood up, picked up their walking sticks and continued on their way.Now, Liang Shi couldn't care less about looking at the surrounding scenery anymore, he obediently put on the goggles.

The higher you go, the more rugged the mountain road is. It can also be said that there is no road at all, and you can only walk through the branches and thorns.Zeng Wenwei was already relatively fat, and now he was wearing a thick jacket, so it was very difficult to pass through those gaps.Liang Shi asked him to follow behind, holding a Swiss Army knife in his hand, and opened the way ahead.When encountering obstacles, use both hands and feet, and all skills of chopping, sharpening and sawing come in handy.The two pulled and supported each other, almost climbing over the mountains step by step.

Not long after, Liang Shi's gloves were worn out, and blood oozed from his hands. He opened the bag, took out the medicine powder and sprinkled it on, then wrapped it with gauze, and said with a smile, "Zisu is about to become a half-nurse, prepare it for us." It's really complete."

Zeng Wenwei felt very sorry and asked him to stop and go forward alone.He shook his head calmly: "The child is waiting for our medicine at home, how can I not go."

From the foot of the mountain to the sunny east cliff, it is only six or seven miles away. Liang Shi and Zeng Wenwei kept pruning trees, weeding and cutting vines along the way, and it took nearly two hours to get close.

At this time, the noon sun was in full bloom, shooting down from the top of the mountain, passing through the sparse leaves, and reflecting on the tree trunks, forming a series of unpredictable colorful beams of light. Trembling, the shadow of the beam of light overlapped on the trees and grass, making the whole mountain forest in a magnificent and strange light and shadow magic realm, dazzling, dazzling and refreshing.

Liang Shi couldn't help but think of Sun Simiao, the king of medicine. It is said that at an advanced age, he was still overcoming thorns and thorns.Thinking about it today, this centenarian is not only good at finding good medicines for the world, but also must have understood the beauty of nature.

The two took a short rest before approaching the edge of the cliff.Because Zeng Wenwei had already suffered from the siege of scorpions and centipedes the night before, he grabbed a handful of quicklime from his hiking bag early in his hand, ready to shoot at any time.Liang Shi made a look and said, "Scorpions are also a good medicine. They have a generation of three years and only reproduce once a year. The survival rate is also very low. Quicklime is very harmful to them. It is not a last resort. Don't use this as a killer to avoid it. Wild scorpions here are extinct."

Zeng Wenwei sighed: "If it wasn't for saving my son's legs, why would I have come here to fight with them. Don't worry, I won't take it lightly."

However, it is very strange that they groped all the way to the edge of the cliff, but did not encounter half a scorpion or a centipede.

Zeng Wenwei couldn't help but said with emotion: "Liang Shi, it seems that you are really a noble person. When you come, even the poisonous insects have disappeared without a trace."

Liang Shi turned his head to look around and the ground, and then looked up at the sky. The sky, which was sunny just now, has quietly changed to gray, the clouds have thickened, and the wind has become stronger at some point. It's cool to the body.He said lightly: "They're not hiding from us. It's going to rain. The sense of smell of insects, birds and animals is often much more sensitive than that of humans."

When Zeng Wenwei heard this, he became anxious, how good this is, if it rains, wouldn't it be impossible to get this medicine.He couldn't help praying secretly in his heart.He quickly took out the rope, tied one end around his waist, and found a place to tie the other end, ready to fall to the cliff.

Zeng Wenwei wanted to go down by himself first, but Liang Shi held the rope in his hands with both hands, flashed his feet, and said, "I'll go down first and have a look, you wait up there, if there is anything wrong, you can come down again."

Zeng Wenwei shouted: "Let's go down together, there is someone to take care of me." After speaking, he also grabbed the rope tied around his waist and slid down the cliff.

At this moment, bursts of dense noise roared, the wind was strong on the mountain, and heavy rain poured down.
