For the next few days, I rode the motorbike with Huang Shulang and the others to Ancestral Bridge. Until the day before New Year's Eve, I specifically told the people who came to me to treat their rheumatism.
"Today is the last day. I won't be coming here again. Don't bring anyone here. "
Everyone was regretful. Some people originally planned to bring their relatives here, but they didn't expect me to be willing.
Everyone can calculate how much money I've earned here. I earned twenty to thirty thousand a day. I set up a stall here for five days, so I earned at least a hundred thousand. There weren't many shops in town that could earn so much every day. If I set up a stall here for a long time, although I wouldn't have such good business every day, I would definitely earn a lot in a year.
But for me, this money was enough for the time being. Even if I left immediately, grandpa would have enough to spend.
On the night of New Year's Eve, I gave all the money I earned to grandpa, but he refused to take it.
"When Teacher Lin left, he told me that in the future, I don't need you to guard a small place like Eight Corners Village. You should go outside, it's very big outside. "Grandpa's lips trembled slightly. Grandpa didn't want me to leave.
"I'll accompany grandpa in Ba Jiao Village." I stuffed a dried pine branch into the stove, and the stove burned fiercely.
"You can't lie to me about what you're thinking. Although grandpa is old and his eyes are blurry, his heart is clear. " Grandpa smiled and stroked my head, then continued, "You're in a hurry to earn so much money, isn't it because you're worried about grandpa? Grandpa is worried that you'll be cheated by others if you go out at such a young age. Your parents don't care about anything, otherwise I'd be more relieved if you went out with your parents. "
"I'm not going to Guangdong." I said.
"Then where are you going? To Miss.Lin's place? Miss.Lin is a girl, she's still studying, and she still has to rely on her family. That's not good either. Study well, you can go out when you're older. "Grandpa said.
"I'm not going out, I want to stay at home with grandpa." My eyes were very confused, and the bright flames in the stove became blurry in my eyes. I felt like an eagle that wanted to spread its wings, but didn't know where to fly.
Grandpa sighed and went to his room to sleep. I put out the fire in the stove and quietly walked into grandpa's room. I put all the money I earned on his bed.
Then he went back to his room. But lying on the bed, I couldn't fall asleep. Outside, firecrackers went off in other people's homes, creating a festive atmosphere in the village. But my house is very quiet. My family also bought a lot of fireworks and firecrackers, but I didn't have any interest in setting them off.
In my hazy state, I seemed to have entered a strange dream. I turned into a cloud of smoke and drifted in the wilderness. I seem to have been to this place before. There are strange trees all over the mountain and exquisite jade stones can be seen everywhere. The trees exuded a mesmerizing fragrance.
"Hahaha …"
There was a burst of laughter, crisp and clear like the singing of a nightingale.
I followed the voice and saw a beautiful fox standing on top of a huge jade rock. This fox had many tails. I counted and there were actually nine of them. A fox was laughing like a human. It was strange. I felt that this dream was really weird. A cold wind suddenly blew from the mountain stream, making me shiver.
"Not good. If it keeps blowing, I won't be able to protect my life. "I screamed in my heart. But then I thought, "No matter what happens, I'm just dreaming. No matter what happens, when I wake up, everything will return to normal."
While I was hesitating, the fox giggled again.
"Hahaha, you're here again."
"Didn't I turn into a cloud of smoke? How could the fox see me? "I was frightened. It was strange. Why did this dream feel so real? Was it not a dream but something that happened in reality?
All of a sudden, a strong suction force sucked me into a whirlpool. I was startled and found myself lying on a bed. Suddenly, the sound of fireworks echoed outside. I looked at the electronic watch on my wrist and saw that it was midnight. This was the second time I had this strange dream. I didn't know what was going on. This dream was too real. The things I saw in the dream were still vivid as if I was seeing them with my own eyes. If it was a dream, why did my head hurt after the dream? If it wasn't a dream, how could there be such a magical place?
After the New Year, I returned to school. But this time, I was no longer in the same class as Huang Shulang and the others. I went to the third grade. There were many martial arts classes in the third grade, so it wasn't difficult for me to adapt to the environment. It was different from before. I was a very popular student in the third grade.
Although the teachers still gave me special treatment, the special treatment now was completely different from the special treatment before. In the past, everyone sneered at me. Now, everyone saw me as a star. They all hoped that they could take the class further.
But I had no interest in it. It was hard for my heart to calm down. I seemed to feel the outside world calling me.
Miss.Lin wrote a letter saying that she had been officially accepted by the provincial normal university. She hoped that I could go to the provincial capital to play during the summer vacation. Her teacher was very interested in my situation and could guide me in learning ancient characters. Miss.Lin's teacher was called Qin Daoheng. He was a famous expert in China's ancient characters.
I flipped through Miss.Lin's letter many times until the creases became cracks. Only then did I put it in an envelope and seriously put it in a thick dictionary.
From the moment I received that letter, I began to look forward to going to the provincial capital.
There were too many questions in my little head. I hoped that in the provincial capital, my questions would be answered. What was the matter with the ancient tomb on the main peak of Eight Horn Mountain? What was the matter with Eight Horn Village? What was the matter with the elemental characters? Or is it because of this strange dream that I often have?
One question after another, it was already too much for the young me to bear.
"Miss.Lin wants you to go. You should go to the provincial capital during the summer vacation. You've never left Eight Horn Village. It's time to go out and take a look. "Grandpa smacked his pipe.
I didn't answer, "I'm going to do double snatching during the summer vacation."
"Don't worry. Your Uncle Kui Zi already agreed. He's in charge of our family's double snatching. You can go to the provincial capital without worry. "Grandpa said.
"That won't do. Their family also has ten mu of land." I shook my head.
"Don't worry. You have so many disciples. They should have said that they would help our family. You're just going for a summer vacation. You can come back after a trip. "Grandpa put the pipe in his mouth and took a few puffs.
