"Junior Brother!" The older man shouted.
"Sorry, I couldn't help it," the younger man said with a grin.
"Don't leave any traces here," the older man said.
"Got it," the younger man said.
The two men rummaged in the pit for a while, but they didn't find anything.
"Not here?"
The younger man asked. "There are other places," the younger man said.
They left the pit and continued to search in a special way. Xishan Hill was not big. They soon found the broken rock.
"It's here, their nest," the younger man said. There were uncleaned insect bodies on the ground.
"What are these?"
The younger man asked. "I've never seen them before." The two men squatted on the ground to study the dead insects.
"It's a pity that they've all been killed," the younger man said.
"No, there must be more," the older man said.
He could see the situation at the scene. It was left behind after the fire. Most of the insects had been burned to charcoal, leaving a small number of bodies. However, it wouldn't kill all of them. He had studied these little things for more than 10 years. He knew their habits and characteristics.
Insects wouldn't die so easily.
"Where are they?" the younger man asked.
"Don't worry," the younger man said.
Buzz! There seemed to be something vibrating in the air. The two men stopped after a few steps.
"They're underground," the younger man said.
"Let me do it," the younger man said.
The slightly younger man had a unique tool on his finger. His finger was wrapped in dark metal armor, and the tip of his finger was very sharp. Kacha, with a single strike, the mountain rock was split open. The rock had been broken by Wang Yao earlier, but he didn't check carefully. There was another rock behind the rock. The distance between the two rocks was about one meter.
The hard rock was like crispy potato chips between his fingers. It broke and slipped. Not long after, more than half of the rock was shattered, revealing what was inside. Sure enough, the inside of the rock was empty. There were bugs. They were the same bugs, but they looked like mole crickets. They were smaller than half the size, and they were black in color. It was scary.
"Found you," the younger man said.
Rustle! The insects seemed to have sensed the smell of food. They moved and were ready to attack.
"Don't worry," the younger man said.
He took out a black cylindrical wooden tripod. It was dark and had some strange patterns carved on the surface.
"Come in."
He opened the lid of the wooden cauldron, and a unique smell wafted out from it. Then, all the insects cooperated and entered the cauldron.
"Very good."
After all the insects had drilled into the cauldron, he closed the lid of the wooden cauldron and put it into his bag.
"Alright."
"Where to next?"
"Another mountain village."
The two of them went down the mountain and returned to the mountain village.
Woof! Woof!
A stray dog barked at them.
Hiss, the slightly younger man bared his teeth and made a threatening sound.
"Don't cause trouble."
"Did it roar at me first?"
"Let's go."
The two of them left the village in the spring rain. The two of them arrived at the north end of the village, where a taxi was parked.
"I thought you guys weren't coming. Where are you going?"
"Li Family Ditch."
"To soak in the hot springs?"
"Yes."
"Okay, but the hot spring there is really good. I've been there once," the taxi driver in his forties said with a smile.
The car drove in the rain towards the mountain.
In the rain, the mountain village was still quiet.
Wang Yao locked the door of the clinic and went home with an umbrella.
Thousands of miles away, in the bustling capital, it was also raining.
On the campus of Peking University, a fairy-like girl stood by the lake with a light blue umbrella. She watched as the raindrops fell from the sky and landed on the surface of the water, creating circles of ripples.
"I don't know if it's raining at Dr. Wang's place."
"What are you thinking about?" A clear voice sounded beside her.
"Oh, nothing. I'm thinking about someone."
"Someone? Are you a lover?"
"Yes." The beautiful woman admitted very frankly.
"Ah, is that true?" The gentle and lovely woman beside her was surprised after hearing that.
"Yes." Su Xiaoxue smiled. She thought that she liked Dr. Wang, and Dr. Wang also admitted that he liked her. The two of them liked each other. The next step was to get in touch and become lovers.
"Hey, you don't know how many people's hearts will be hurt by your words. What does he do? When will you introduce him to us?"
"Well, he is a pharmacist."
"A pharmacist? A doctor?"
"No, he is a pharmacist. An ancient pharmacist."
"What?"
"I'm not telling you. Let's go."
The two women walked all the way in the rain. They were laughing all the way. They were like two cheerful elves, causing passers-by to stop and watch.
"What a beautiful girl!"
After school, there were no classes in the evening.
"Xiaoxue, let's get together tonight."
"Okay."
The girls made an appointment to have dinner together in a restaurant near the school.
The sky gradually darkened, but the rain was still falling.
The girls dressed up beautifully went to the restaurant outside the school. They had a private room.
Outside, a car was parked in the rain. A person sat in the car and stared into the restaurant.
"What do you want to eat?"
"Anything."
These girls were classmates who got along well with each other in class. They didn't expect Su Xiaoxue to be so polite. They were very clear about the family background of this girl who had amazed them. After all, this was Jing. The news was very well-informed. It was rare for such a person to be so approachable. She didn't have the so-called princess syndrome.
After a few dishes were served, they started chatting.
They were girls after all. When they got together, they would talk about boyfriends.
Among these girls, two already had boyfriends. The rest didn't. They exchanged their experiences and experiences. As they talked, they talked about the criteria for choosing a partner.
"Xiaoxue, what kind of man do you like?"
"Well, I already have someone I like," Su Xiaoxue said.
"Really?"
They had always thought that this was just an excuse for her pursuers. They didn't expect it to be true.
"Where is he? What does he do? When can you introduce him to us?" They wanted to know what kind of man could win the heart of such an outstanding girl.
"He is not in Jing."
"Abroad?"
"No, he is in Qi Province."
"Qi Province?"
"What does he do?"
"He is a pharmacist."
"A pharmacist?"
"An ancient pharmacist," another girl said.
"Yes, you know him?"
"I heard that my grandfather is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. He is an ancient pharmacist. He is good at treating all kinds of diseases."
Su Xiaoxue smiled after hearing that.
"Is he that good?"
"Something like that."
"How old is he? Is he …"
"Well, he is 27 years old this year."
"What? 27?"
…
About an hour later, a car was speeding in the brightly lit Jing.
"Miss, are you happy tonight?"
"Very happy," Su Xiaoxue said with a smile.
"That's good."
"Sorry to bother you, Auntie Lian."
"What are you talking about?" Chu Lian smiled. She was very concerned about the girl behind her. She was like a family member.
"I miss Mr. Wang."
"Ah?" Chu Lian was surprised.
"I want to see Mr. Wang."
"Hmm?" Chu Lian didn't know how to answer.
"Give him a call," Chu Lian said. She took out her phone and quickly found the phone number, but she didn't rush to dial it.
"At this time, Mr. Wang should be awake, right?"
"Ah!" Chu Lian, who was driving, sighed.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
"Hello, Xiaoxue."
"Hello, Mr. Wang."
"Hello, are you at school?"
"No, I am on the way home. Where are you? On the hill?"
"Yes, on Nanshan Hill."
"Mr. Wang, I miss you."
There was a moment of silence.
"Shall I come to see you?"
On the other end of the phone, in the cottage on Nanshan Hill, Wang Yao said after a moment of silence.
"What?" Su Xiaoxue thought she had misheard.
"I will go to Jing to see you."
"Okay!" Su Xiaoxue grinned. She was as happy as a child.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Yao also laughed. He didn't know why he had spoken so straightforwardly. He almost said that sentence without thinking.
"Auntie Lian, Mr. Wang is coming to Jing to see me."
"Okay," Chu Lian said with a smile.
"Well, I have to prepare well. Oh, I have a lot of classes recently."
Chu Lian, who was driving, looked at the girl through the rearview mirror and shook her head.
Back home, Su Xiaoxue was so happy that she didn't fall asleep until very late.
"He is coming to Jing?"
"Yes, that's what he said on the phone. He is coming to see you."
"Did he really say that?"
"Yes, I heard him."
"No wonder this girl is so happy."
In the evening, Su Xianghua came back very late.
"Why are you back so late?"
"I was delayed by a meeting. Why haven't you gone to bed yet?"
"Something happened to your daughter."
"Something happened? What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Su Xianghua hurriedly asked.
"No." Song Ruiping told her husband what had happened that day.
"Ah, that's good. Let him come," Su Xianghua said.
"Hey, you still don't understand what I mean. Xiaoxue is falling deeper and deeper."
"It's good that she likes him. I think Dr. Wang is good, although I have only met him a few times," Song Ruiping said.
"Well, he has a good reputation," Song Ruiping said.
"What? You asked someone to investigate him?" Su Xianghua raised his eyebrows.
"Of course, I have to know what kind of person he is. You can't judge a book by its cover. I have to be responsible for my daughter."
"Well, that's true."
"His medical skills are really good, and he doesn't have any bad habits or do any evil. On the contrary, he set up a charity fund to help a poor village child. He built roads and schools."
"Really? That's rare!"
Song Ruiping said. "His parents have a good reputation in the village. They are honest and kind people. His sister works in the Agriculture Bureau and has a good reputation. She plans to get married this year."
"My wife, it's a pity that you don't work in intelligence," Su Xianghua said with a smile.
