Chapter 1 Mountain Dog

100 miles away along the Dabai Mountains is Panshanling.

This place is poor and desolate, a remote place with a strong northwest wind and no poetry!

The ditch and pond sharpened the northwest wind like a knife, making the old man's bulbous nose and tall thin cheekbones glow red.The temperature was more than 20 degrees below zero, and the old man was wearing a padded jacket and chopping firewood, clutching in his arms the stainless steel jug bought for him by his granddaughter who worked as a waiter in the city on his birthday.

His beard and hair are dyed with frost, and his breath here becomes ice!

The rattling sound of the chain attracted his attention, and he stopped swinging the long ax and leaned on the wooden pier to look at it.

On the reflective pavement, where the snow has been rolled by wheels, a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes sits on the eighth bar with peeling paint and rusty spots.The army green coat roars through the vicissitudes of life and flutters with the wind.With the creaking pedals on the hem, it showed two strong and long legs.

The old man stretched out his neck that had shrunk due to the cold, and roared across a dilapidated small wooden bridge that was washed away by the flood in summer: "Big Lingzi, where are you going in the world of ice and snow?"

This young man is Zhao Yanling!
Since junior high school, he rushed out of the winding mountains like a mad dog, biting, kneeling, and bowing his head. After graduating from college, he walked slowly to the place where he was born with an old dog.

Backwardness and poverty sometimes breed low self-esteem, and sometimes overflow self-abuse.He couldn't stand the life of sitting in an office building where the winter is warm and the summer is cool, but the elders in his hometown face the loess and their backs to the sky. He is determined to come back and get rich together.Constrained by lack of funds, he had to hide his minions temporarily!

It is difficult for people without this mental journey to understand his thinking. The generally accepted saying in the village is: stupid!

Zhao Yanling moved his chin out of the collar of his coat, and the cold wind blew his words into pieces: "Second Grandpa, there is a car in front of you, my old man asked me to take a look!"

A lot of wind poured into his collar, he quickly lowered his head to block the gap, and drove across the small wooden bridge with difficulty against the wind.

In the era when there was no family planning, the number of children usually exceeded the standard. Zhao Yanling's father ranked fifth, and two of the first four children died.

Zhao Laowu has contracted Xiaoqingshan in Panshanling for more than ten years, and the contract period is 50 years in total!
An old friend who passed away once said to him: "There is no coal mine in Panshan Mountain, and the old forest has not been destroyed. You have to watch it. If you don't believe me, just look at it. Those who don't know how to guard the mountain will regret it sooner or later!"

In those years, where the development was at the cost of destroying the original ecological forest resources, these people did not see how rich they were, but the mountains became bare.During the flood season, landslides cut off the river and washed away roads and crop fields.

Hunchbacked, bent over, the dry old man Zhao Lao Wu has become the most loyal mountain dog!

Xiaoqingshan is densely wooded, and there are many tourists in spring, summer, autumn and winter, but they are only allowed to wander in the outermost periphery. There are flowers and grass inside, and Zhao Laowu doesn't allow them to move!
Zhao Yanling was sent by the old man to check, and she didn't complain, it was time to exercise.

The silver-gray Magotan was parked by the roadside. Two young men and two women who were dressed conspicuously had already got off the embankment and reached the gentle slope on the other side of the river. Disposable plastic cups for fresh hot cocoa.

Wearing a mink collar coat, the woman with exquisite makeup and high heels walked cautiously, with a vicissitudes of life on her face, and a cigarette on her finger.

Zhao Yanling parked his bicycle on the side of the road, got off the river, didn't bother to climb up the slope, and shouted directly: "Guys, put away the garbage, littering is not allowed here. In addition, smoking cigarette butts must be snuffed out. The sky is dry and the things are dry. Watch out for candles!"

The fire a few years ago, although it did not spread to Panshanling, still left people with lingering fears, and the color of talking changed!
The ermine collar gave Zhao Yanling a nonchalant and slightly reproachful look.Seeing that he is wearing knitted earbags with a chin hanging, and his face has a red nose and red cheeks that have been frozen out like the second grandfather, he will be mistaken for rural red.I don't know how many generations I have worn the army green coat, and the black thick non-slip cotton Ural shoes under my feet.

What is dismissive is his identity, and what is annoyed is his spoiling roar!

The disordered hormones that Shuofeng couldn't freeze made one of the tall and handsome men angry.

He didn't pick up the rubbish, and went down the hillside aggressively.

Zhao Yanling looked down at the ice under her feet, then turned back to the road.

Hehe, it's not suitable for tugging here!

The tall and handsome man's aura suddenly rose up like a wild animal chasing its prey, and he almost fell when he walked in a hurry...

Back on the road, Zhao Yanling did not run away as they imagined, but waited for them with her shoulders slumped and her hands folded in her sleeves.

The tall and handsome man snorted and said, "What do you do? The pipe is so wide? Why is the mountain your home?"

Zhao Yanling nodded blankly: "Yes, it belongs to my family."

There are still decades of contracting rights!
Then he pointed at the sign tied with No. [-] wire on a nearby poplar tree.

The sign is made of pine boards, covered with burrs, and with bright red paint characters: No going up the mountain, littering, open flames!No toad catching!
At this moment, Zhao Yanling had no doubt that he himself had become Xiaoqingshan's guard dog!Here, no grass, no tree, not even a brook allow others to get their hands on it!

The tall and handsome man smiled disdainfully: "Look at your bear, I..."

Before he finished speaking, a dilapidated Jinbei that was almost sold as scrap iron screeched to a stop.The car door opened, and a 1.9-meter-high man was curled up in the narrow driver's seat, making people feel aggrieved for him just by looking at him!
The brawny man got out of the car, wearing earbags and an army green coat. He was dressed similarly to Zhao Yanling, but his figure was bulging by more than one layer.

He looked around and his expression was clear.

His nickname is Li Xiuye, and his nickname is Er Fatty, who is Zhao Yanling's hair boy who wears crotch pants, so he is usually called Fatty.

The tall and handsome man didn't wait for the context, the fat man stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar with his big hand like a cattail fan: "Little brat, run around the mountains and play wild?"

The handsome man left his feet off the ground, and the toes of his shoes drew two marks on the snow!

The four of them were silent like cicadas!

With his other free hand, the fat man took out a knife for cutting pork from the pocket of his cotton coat, and spun it towards Zhao Yanling.

He knew that Zhao Yanling was practicing this recently!
Zhao Yanling's eyes, which were originally a bit dowdy, lit up suddenly, and he stretched out his hand to precisely pinch the blade with his thumb and index finger, and swung it to the side.

Difficulty value +69.

The knife pierced three points on the warning sign five meters away, and the shiny wooden handle soaked in lard trembled, and the four people who provoked it were trembling!

The fat man didn't push hard, and the handsome man fell down: "Pip out the cigarette in a hurry, clean up the trash, get out!"

The mink leader put out the cigarette like a frightened quail, and the smoky circles under his eyes couldn't hide his panic!
The fat man lost his ferocious bear-like expression, and said with a playful smile: "Old Zhao, the boss's grandpa's house will kill pigs tomorrow, so let's fish in troubled waters and take the opportunity..."

The owner's grandfather, he was the owner of the car during the production team, and he was also a blacksmith.The two coveted a hundred-refined gun steel plate in their home for a long time, but the old man never let go.

Zhao Yanling's eyes lit up, and she reached out to give the fat man a high five: "That's it!"

The silver-gray Magotan walked away in embarrassment amidst the laughter of two impoverished people who planned to take steel!
