Solitaire: Rise of the Waste

Chapter 2 Border Town
"Hey, I said, can you two go away? It's getting late, and this is the last boat for today. If you don't go, I'm going to sail." Looking at the standing still in front of her, Two little girls, the boatman kindly reminded.

"Oh, here we come." Shu Ya glanced at the boatman, and boarded the boat with Qingyi.Feeling in my heart, the world is really wonderful, who would have thought that this simple and honest boatman was once a famous headshot robber in history.

................
"Hey, I said Lao Wu, give us Duan Chuanjiang chant," said a middle-aged man on board in authentic Chongqing dialect.

"No, you see everyone is exhausted, let them rest for a while." The boatman raised his chin and pointed at the people on board.

"Come on, Boatman, I haven't heard your chant for a long time, please give us a section." Another black man said word by word in his not-so-fluent Chinese.

"Yeah, let's go for a while"

"Then, I'll just come for a while?" The boatman said with a smile, unable to resist everyone's enthusiasm.

"All ears" everyone nodded excitedly, thinking in their hearts that the world is so big that this place is the most comfortable place.

"Don't be afraid, no matter how fierce and ruthless the flying stones and quicksand, if you don't cross, next year there will be flowers here. I am used to shouting songs and speaking my hometown dialect. In our dictionary, I can't find what is called fear." .Hey, let's ride the waves, hey, hey, let's face the torrent together, hey..."

In this way, the boat moved slowly, listening to the chant of the boatman, everyone felt the river wind blowing slowly, the coolness hit, and the fatigue of the day gradually dissipated, and the boat was about to dock before they knew it. up.

Shu Ya listened to this song with a strong sense of hometown, stood on the bow of the boat, looked at the small town that was getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but start to size it up.

I saw two two-meter-high lions standing on both sides of the entrance, which looked very majestic from a distance.And in the middle of the two lions is a plaque hanging crookedly, which vaguely looks like the word "Border Town".

border town?

Is it the border town described by Shen Congwen?
Shu Ya shook her head, but it's a pity that there is no Cui Cui, Grandpa, nor Huang Yongyu here.

"Here we are" the rough voice of the boatman interrupted Shu Ya's thoughts, Shu Ya was annoyed in her heart, what were she thinking, she is not here for vacation now.

"Yaya, is the information wrong?" Sitting at the dining table, Qingyi rested his head in one hand, and ate slowly, as if he was doing research rather than enjoying the food.

They have been here for nine days, and today is the tenth day.But there is no news of the exact location of the headquarters of the scorpion, so they can't let them search from mountain to mountain, right?
"Come and have a taste, this fish is river fish from a big river, with this fiery red pickled pepper, the soup is very sour and refreshing." Shu Ya put down a bowl of hot fish soup in front of Qing Yi.

"Yaya..."

"Waiter, bring me a catty of beef and two bottles of Xiao Er." Qing Yi wanted to continue asking, but was interrupted by a sissy voice.Turning his head to look, he saw a man in his early twenties with a few very obvious scratches on his face walking in embarrassingly.

"Hey, big head, why is it getting worse every day? Did you go to the mountain to collect medicine again today?" A diner at the table next to him asked gleefully.

"Oh, don't mention it, it's bad luck" the man with the big head asked to put down the medicine basket, and responded with a sip of water.

"You deserve it! Who told you to go up to the mountain in the south, don't you know that the mountain is Broken Head Mountain?" Another diner at the next table said bluntly, apparently knowing him.

"But you are lucky. Many unbelievers like you fell from the mountain and died at the foot of the mountain." The man sitting next to him also said.

"Oh, Lao Li, I know what you said. But there are indeed a lot of medicinal materials on that mountain..." In the second half of the sentence, Datou whispered in a voice he could hear.

"Hehe, you really don't cry when you see the coffin." The man named Lao Li glanced at his big head sarcastically, and said, "There are a lot of medicinal materials on the mountain, but it depends on whether you have the life to take it. See you With this look, there is nothing to gain today, right?"

When the big head heard it, he became anxious, "Who said I didn't get any harvest today, I picked a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum today, but it's a pity that there is only such a small amount left now." A ganoderma lucidum the size of a child's fist was taken out of the bag and was still on the table.

"Good boy, you're lucky, but since it's only one plant, why are there only so few left?" Everyone asked curiously.

Although they don't know what the millennium Ganoderma lucidum looks like, but this small piece with a dark and shiny surface is indeed aged.

"Oh, I feel unlucky when I talk about it." Datou recalled, "I was very excited to pick such a large millennium Ganoderma lucidum, but before I had time to be happy, a bronze horse suddenly sprang forward, not only killing my Ganoderma lucidum I was eaten, and kicked me down the mountain."

A living bronze horse?
Isn't that the exclusive design of Nangong Family?
Shu Ya cast a puzzled look at Qing Yi who was still mechanically chewing with her head down, thinking about something.

"A living bronze horse? Are you reading that right?" Lao Li asked suspiciously, obviously not believing it.

"Really, look if you don't believe me." The big head, who was afraid of Lao Li's disbelief, pulled down the clothes on his chest, and a clearly visible horseshoe print appeared in front of people's eyes.

"Cut, what does a horseshoe mark mean? It can only be said that it was kicked by a horse."

"Oh, leave him alone, come on, let's drink..."

"Waiter, pay the bill." After confirming that she would hear no more useful information, she got up to pay the bill, and walked to the south of Arshan.
