Fantasy Farm

Chapter 30

Lu Qingjiu drove the changed minivan on the road. After more than ten hours of bumps, he finally returned to the city where he had chosen to leave. After half a year, the appearance of the city has not changed much, it is still a noisy scene with tall buildings and busy roads.

I am used to staying in the quiet countryside. Lu Qingjiu is still a little uncomfortable when he comes back here. The small truck is also much better. I don't know if he was frightened by this strange scene.

"Sake, sake! Here!" Zhu Miaomiao arrived at the place agreed with Lu Sake early in the morning and waved at him.

Lu Qingjiu saw her and drove the car over.

Zhu Miaomiao said, "How long have you not slept? Otherwise, let me drive?" Lu Qingjiu set off in the morning and arrived this evening. He must be tired after driving the highway for a day.

"No." Lu Qingjiu said, "I'm not that tired." In fact, he didn't drive for too long. It was all small trucks mastering the direction and speed. He even slept with the steering wheel...

"Oh, all right." Zhu Miaomiao said, "Then go to my house first."

Lu Qingjiu nodded.

Although he stayed in this city for many years, Lu Qingjiu did not buy a house here. The house he lived in before was also rented. Because he had to return to his hometown, the house had been returned. When Lu Qingjiu came back this time, he wanted to stay in a hotel, but Zhu Miaomiao disagreed, saying that her house clearly had rooms to live in. Why would Lu Qingjiu go to the hotel to join in the fun? Isn't it more convenient to stay at home than to stay in a hotel?

Lu Qingjiu didn't hold her back, so he could only agree.

After parking the car in the garage, Zhu Miaomiao took Lu Qingjiu to the gate of the community for dinner. After eating the food made at home, he tasted the food outside. Lu Qingjiu felt a clear difference.

"Hey, it's still delicious from yours." Zhu Miaomiao was also very emotional about this. "The things in the city are always tasteless."

Lu Qingjiu smiled and said, "I brought you some raisins we got there. They are delicious. You can try them first."

Zhu Miaomiao grabbed a handful, and put it in his mouth, showing a stunning expression: "It's delicious, this grape is really sweet."

"Yes." Lu Qingjiu said, "When you are free, you can visit us again."

Zhu Miaomiao smiled and nodded.

After driving for a day on the road, Zhu Miaomiao was also afraid that Lu Qingjiu would be tired. He took him back to the guest room at home early. The two said goodnight to each other. After Lu Qingjiu washed up, he entered the guest room Zhu Miaomiao prepared for him.

Zhu Miaomiao lives on the 20th floor in the city center. Not far away is a lively commercial street. When you look up, you can see a sea of ​​lights converging, and the vehicles passing by the road are like streams of light. This is a night view of the city, which is completely different from that of Shuifu Village, but each has its own beauty.

After watching Lu Qingjiu for a while, he went back to bed and got ready to go to bed. He had to get up early tomorrow morning.

The next day, the alarm clock awakened Lu Qingjiu from his dream. After he got up, he saw Zhu Miaomiao still asleep, so he washed gently and went out alone.

Lu Qingjiu went to the garage and drove a pickup truck, and the two of them headed towards the cemetery.

The cemetery is in the outskirts and it takes about an hour to drive there.

When he arrived at the cemetery, Lu Qingjiu first bought incense candles and paper money, and then bought a bunch of fresh chrysanthemums. Because it is not a holiday or a rest day, the cemetery is very quiet, with tall pine trees standing neatly on both sides of the road, and the atmosphere is solemn. There were still dewdrops on the low Evergreen leaves, and Lu Qingjiu left wet marks on the trousers as they passed through them.

He quickly found his goal, a tombstone in the corner.

Because the parents had an accident at the same time, they were also buried together. The names of the two were outlined with golden lines on the tombstone. Above the names are two black and white photos. The man is handsome and the woman is soft, making people want to praise a good pair of people.

Lu Qingjiu put down the flowers in his hand, put a joss stick in front of the tombstone, then squatted down, and started to burn the paper money in his hand a little bit. The paper money turned into gray ashes in the flames, and disappeared into the air with the wind. Lu Qingjiu said, "Mom and dad, I will come back to see you."

Naturally there will be no answer.

Lu Qingjiu continued to mutter in a low voice: "I am back to my hometown now, and my life is very good. Don't worry. If you need anything below, remember to give me a dream. I haven't dreamed of you for a long time."

He paused for a moment, and his voice was a little low: "I don't know...Is there any chance to get you back."

At that time, a mountain collapsed near Shuifu Village. Lu Qingjiu's parents who were still on the road were directly buried in it. Even the body was not found, only some belongings were found. At that time, Lu Qingjiu couldn't accept this fact at all, and rushed back to Shuifu Village overnight to find his parents' remains, but when he saw the collapsed mountain, he realized that this idea was almost impossible.

In the face of the power of nature, human beings are too weak, as weak as a man's arm as a car, and they lose their lives without the opportunity to resist.

While burning the paper money, Lu Qingjiu mumbled some details of life. After the paper money was burned, he had finished saying what he wanted to say, so he reached out his hand to touch the tombstone, and said softly: "Mom and dad, I'll go ahead and wait until next year. Come back during the Qingming Festival. If you miss me, tell me."

Silent, the men and women on the tombstone still showed gentle smiles.

Lu Qingjiu packed his belongings and left the cemetery. He got in the car, but his cell phone rang suddenly. He picked it up and found that it was Zhu Miaomiao's phone number.

"Sake." Zhu Miaomiao said, "Would you like to have a meal with us in the evening? I have a dinner together with Brother Yun and the others."

Lu Qingjiu said: "I can't go to the unit dinner, right?"

Zhu Miaomiao said, "It's okay. The person you hate won't come. I told them that you are back, and they are all very happy."

Lu Qingjiu thought for a while: "Let's do it." He actually likes his colleagues in the unit. On weekdays, everyone gets along well. He didn't quit his job but was fired. Of course, Zhu Miaomiao didn't know about these things, because There are hidden secrets that Lu Qingjiu doesn't want to mention anymore. Since the person he hated the most was not there, there was nothing wrong with going to dinner, and Lu Qingjiu readily agreed to Zhu Miaomiao's invitation.

The place to eat was set at a restaurant near the unit. Lu Qingjiu went around the city when he was free and bought some snacks for Yin Xun and Bai Yuehu.

The town of Shuifu Village is still too small and there are not many things. For example, Lu Qingjiu likes to eat a soft candy with jelly in it, which I haven't seen in the town. Although you can buy it online, you have to go to town every time you take the courier, which is really troublesome.

Lu Qingjiu bought several large bags of soft sweets. When he put them in the car, he suddenly remembered something. He patted the head of his car and said, "Do you eat sweets?"

The light of the truck turned on, slapped, and then banged again.

"Eat? Where is your mouth?" Lu Qingjiu asked.

With a click, the front cover of the car was opened. Lu Qingjiu looked inside and saw that the place where the engine should have was actually empty. The front cover was cleaner than the rear compartment... This picture was really exciting, and Lu Qingjiu was also scared. When others saw the candy in their hands, they tore open the bag and stuffed it in. After stuffing it in, the front cover was closed again. Lu Qingjiu was about to ask whether the truck likes it or not, when he saw his originally dark-painted truck flashing colorfully—similar to the color of a soft candy.

What does it mean? So delicious? Lu Qingjiu greeted the minivan quickly, let it not get excited, it would be finished when someone saw it.

Only then did the minivan calm down, but I don't know if it was Lu Qingjiu's illusion. He always felt that the minivan after eating the jelly was happier than usual...

At about six in the afternoon, Lu Qingjiu arrived at the address mentioned by Zhu Miaomiao. He saw many familiar faces sitting in the restaurant. He put a smile on his face and walked toward the crowd.

"Sake, you are back!!"

"Sake, your kid is finally willing to come back to see us!"

"Brother Lu, come sit here!"

When everyone saw Lu Qingjiu, they greeted enthusiastically. Lu Qingjiu has a gentle personality, is safe and responsible, and his popularity in the unit is very good. The sudden resignation at that time made everyone a little puzzled, and then left directly. When the city went to his hometown, everyone had countless guesses.

Lu Qingjiu sat next to Zhu Miaomiao and said with a smile: "Hello everyone, it's been a long time."

The old senior Brother Yun was also on this table, and when he saw Lu Qingjiu sitting down, he patted the table and said, "You kid, leave quietly, and dare to come back and see if I don't get you down!"

Lu Qingjiu smiled and said, "You show mercy, Brother Yun——"

Zhu Miaomiao poured wine next to him: "Stop talking, you can't run away today."

The quiet life makes people feel calm, and the lively world is not annoying. Lu Qingjiu drinks too much, and a faint blush appears on his cheeks, and a thin layer of water shines in his eyes, Zhu Miaomiao The drunk Lu Qingjiu was so cute.

Lu Qingjiu said: "How can you say that a man is cute." He was about to continue pouring wine into the glass, but he felt that the crowd suddenly quieted down. Lu Qingjiu felt something, and looked up and saw a man walking by the door. Came in.

"Why is he here!" Zhu Miaomiao was still in a state of drunkenness, and when she saw that this man was fully awake, she said, "Didn't you say you won't come today!"

"Where do I know." Brother Yun was also a little big, "but he did say he won't come..."

Zhu Miaomiao glanced at Lu Qingjiu nervously, but saw that Lu Qingjiu's face didn't change much, but his eyes were slightly colder.

The man is very tall and looks good, but everyone in the company knows that he and Lu Qingjiu are at odds.

Lu Qingjiu said: "I'll go to the toilet." He stood up and walked towards the bathroom. Zhu Miaomiao looked at his back with a worried look.

The man's name is Wu Xiao, Lu Qingjiu's boss, but his personality and Lu Qingjiu are two opposites. Although he is capable, his temper is particularly bad. When Lu Qingjiu first joined the company, his attitude towards Lu Qingjiu was okay, but he didn't know why. Later, it got worse and worse, and even started to specifically target Lu Qingjiu. Even Zhu Miaomiao, they guessed that Lu Qingjiu's resignation was related to Wu Xiao.

Of course, Lu Qingjiu has not given a definite answer to this speculation.

After Lu Qingjiu went to the toilet and was washing his hands with his head down, he heard a word of indifference mixed with disgust from the side: "Why are you back? Didn't I tell you to stop you from appearing in my eyes? "

Lu Qingjiu turned his head and saw Wu Xiao, "Mr. Wu."

Wu Xiao walked in front of Lu Qingjiu and said, "Why, do you think you are joking? What did you do after you went out to change Zhang Chuyang's view of you? Lu Qingjiu, if I were you, let me be smarter and get away from this. The company is far away."

Lu Qingjiu has drunk a lot of wine, but he feels that his mind is clearer than usual. He looked at Wu Xiao and smiled faintly: "Mr. Wu, aren't you curious about where I learned those things?"

Wu Xiao watched Lu Sake warily.

"I'll tell you, OK?" Lu Qingjiu laughed. The alcohol made him lose the gentle temperament, but he became a little sharp. His indifferent and mocking gaze made Wu Xiao feel a little unable to straighten. Depending on.

"Don't you **** like gossip?" Wu Xiao said, "What else can you tell me?!"

Lu Qingjiu sneered and pointed at him: "You come with me."

Wu Xiao didn't expect Lu Qingjiu to be so arrogant, and he was also agitated for a while. The two of them walked directly outside the restaurant one after the other, but they surprised Zhu Miaomiao, who had been worried.

"They are going out now, what are they going to do?" Zhu Miaomiao said in horror, "I will go with him, what if the sake is beaten by someone, Wu Xiao is bigger than him."

Brother Yun stopped Zhu Miaomiao: "Farewell, don't join in the fun. In fact, Mr. Wu is also pretty good, but his temper is so bad that the two will never fight."

Zhu Miaomiao said, "Why do you think Mr. Wu doesn't wait to see sake..."

Brother Yun said, "Where do I know."

Wu Xiao is their immediate boss. It is naturally not a good thing to be targeted by the immediate boss, but they have not been able to figure out why Wu Xiao dislikes Lu Qingjiu and targets him everywhere.

Lu Qingjiu got into the car he had parked outside, but Wu Xiao grabbed his hand and called him down.

"Why?" Lu Qingjiu became a little impatient, "I said I will take you to a place."

Wu Xiao said: "You **** drunk and driving want to go in, right?"

Lu Qingjiu: "..." He forgot about this. Sure enough, he was used to the small truck opening the back door for him. Many driving habits have deteriorated, and he has to change it in the future.

Wu Xiao sat down in the cab with a sullen expression, and said, "Address?"

Lu Qingjiu said: "At the door of the company."

Wu Xiao: "..." He finally held back what he wanted to say, but his eyes were getting worse and worse. The look in Lu Qingjiu's eyes seemed to be insane.

Lu Qingjiu didn't bother to explain to him. He drank, and now the whole person is dizzy, and he didn't think about it so much. He said, "Mr. Wu, have you seen ghosts before?"

Wu Xiao was driving. He sneered when he heard Lu Qingjiu's words: "What? Do you want to take this to ghosts? Heh, is there such a gossiping ghost in this world?"

Lu Qingjiu grasped the main point in Wu Xiao's words: "So you've seen it?"

Wu Xiao was silent for a moment, then nodded perfunctorily, and said, "I saw it when I was young." He did see those dirty things, and he often saw it when he was a child. Every time he saw it, he got sick. His family had visited this place. In terms of people, the person said that his horoscopes are too light, and he will be fine when he grows up. This statement is pretty reliable, because he has never seen these things since he was older.

"No wonder." Lu Qingjiu said.

Wu Xiao said, "What do you want to say?"

Lu Qingjiu didn't speak, and leaned lazily on the co-pilot: "You don't believe me no matter how much I said, you will know what I want to say when you wait."

Wu Xiao pursed his lips, his eyes revealed a strong unpleasantness. In his eyes, Lu Qingjiu is a person who likes to gossip about others very much. On the surface, the gentleness and gentleness are all pretends. As for why this is the case The impression is purely that there were several times when I broke Lu Qingjiu's gossip in the toilet, especially the most recent one, it even involved the company's most confidential project. Because of this, Wu Xiao asked Lu Qingjiu to resign, and insisted that if he did not resign, he would be fired.

Lu Qingjiu did not express any doubts about Wu Xiao's decision, but left him cleanly. This also made Wu Xiao sure that he was right. Lu Qingjiu was indeed a villain pretending to be a gentleman. This kind of person Wu Xiao was the most annoying, so when he saw Lu Qingjiu, he didn't give him any good expressions.

Until reaching the destination, Lu Qingjiu had no meaning to explain. Wu Xiao stopped the car and asked angrily, "What are you trying to say?"

Lu Qingjiu said: "Come here." He entered the building, walked to the elevator door, and pressed the elevator.

Wu Xiao frowned and followed Lu Qingjiu, he wanted to see what tricks Lu Qingjiu could do.

The elevator went all the way up and reached the floor of their company. Because of today's dinner, most of the employees have already left work, and the remaining few who can't get away are still working overtime.

The security guard at the company's door showed a surprised expression when he saw Lu Qingjiu and Wu Xiao, and called out Mr. Wu.

Wu Xiao nodded and said, "What the **** are you doing?" He became a little impatient.

Lu Qingjiu ignored him and continued to walk forward. The two passed through the long company corridor and soon reached the company's toilet door. He pushed open the toilet door and made a please gesture to Wu Xiao.

Wu Xiao saw Lu Qingjiu's expressions freeze for a moment, and he said, "What do you mean?"

Lu Qingjiu blinked: "Don't you want to know the answer, I will give you the answer now."

Wu Xiao: "...The answer is in the toilet?" He looked at Lu Sake suspiciously, not knowing what he thought of. There was an inexplicable blush on his cheeks, "I don't like men."

Lu Qingjiu: "..." He was shocked by Wu Xiao's brain circuit, so he didn't speak at all and walked in first.

Although Wu Xiao hesitated, since he had reached the door, he followed Lu Qingjiu to the toilet.

The toilet has a huge window, with folding shutters hung on the window, and the small lamp above the head emits a faint light. No matter where it is, the toilet is not a pleasant place.

Wu Xiao said: "I'm here, what answer do I want?"

Lu Qingjiu took a deep breath, walked to the window, and shouted to the outside: "Old tree, old tree, are you there? Have you fallen asleep?"

Wu Xiao: "..."

Lu Qingjiu said, "You wake up soon, old tree?!"

Wu Xiao looked over with horrified eyes, he obviously felt that Lu Qingjiu was crazy.

Lu Qingjiu ignored Wu Xiao and called out a few more times. About a minute or two later, a sound exactly like Lu Qingjiu's voice came from a toilet cubicle. The voice replied, "Jiuer? You? came back?"

Hearing this sound, the panic in Wu Xiao's eyes almost turned into substance. His mouth was opened wide and trembling, he pointed to Lu Qingjiu, and pointed to the toilet cubicle where the sound was made. He was obviously asking about this. What is the situation, why is there another Lu Qingjiu talking in it.

Lu Qingjiu shrugged and walked to the toilet compartment. He stretched out his hand and opened the compartment door. After the door was opened, the compartment was empty, there was nothing, and there was no second Lu Qingjiu.

"What's the situation?" Wu Xiao was shocked. If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he would never believe such a thing.

"Old tree." Lu Qingjiu sighed, "I said, don't use my voice when you gossip, now you will hurt me miserably."

"Hahahaha..." The same sound as Lu Qingjiu came out from the toilet, but the sound was a bit embarrassing, "Where do I know that someone can hear my voice? Isn't this not when I didn't pay attention to gossip."

Lu Qingjiu said: "Look, you made me misunderstood."

The old tree is silent.

This old tree was a magical existence that Lu Qingjiu discovered shortly after entering the company. That time Lu Qingjiu was in the toilet, but he heard someone whispering some very private gossip, but Lu Qingjiu felt that something was wrong because there was none in the company. It was this voice. He waited in the toilet for a long time to find out if he was talking, until he found something was wrong-there was obviously no one in the toilet.

Lu Qingjiu, who was aware of the strangeness, made an excuse to let other colleagues come to the toilet, but the colleague said that he hadn't heard anything. At this point, Lu Qingjiu understood that the voice did not belong to human beings. Later he was in the company for a long time and found that the voice came from a big tree at the door of the company. The tree also discovered that Lu Qingjiu could understand his own words. There was friendship. The voice before the tree was very strange. After getting along with Lu Qingjiu, he began to deliberately look like Lu Qingjiu's voice. It is said that this is the expression of liking one person in their tree clan. Lu Qingjiu didn't take this seriously at the time, but he didn't expect to plant a disaster for the future.

Wu Xiao is obviously not sensitive to Lu Qingjiu to these non-human beings, so he can only hear Dashu talking very occasionally. This Dashu knows the most private gossip in the entire company. What does colleague A go to ask for leave or go for plastic surgery? Always B because of prostitutes. The prostitution was infected with something like sex, disease, and it used Lu Qingjiu's voice when talking to people. Wu Xiao, who did not know the situation, listened to it and naturally misunderstood it.

Wu Xiao, who misunderstood that Lu Qingjiu was a gossip communicator, gave him an ultimatum and gave him two choices. One was fired, and the other was to resign to save his face.

Although somewhat inexplicable, Lu Qingjiu chose the latter and left the company. Thinking about it now, these things are simply innocent disasters.

After listening to Lu Qingjiu's explanation, Wu Xiao's awkward expression on his face became stronger. He coughed dryly, "Sorry, I didn't expect... there is such a thing in the world."

Lu Qingjiu said helplessly, "Do you think I look like a gossip?"

Wu Xiao: "Just...a little bit like?"

Lu Qingjiu: "..." Okay, just be happy.

The author has something to say: 　　Wu Xiao: Lu Qingjiu, who has thick eyebrows and big eyes, actually tells people that I have hemorrhoids everywhere.

Lu Qingjiu: I am not, I don't have...
