Chapter 3 Cousin

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 This day is the Waze Buddha Festival, a festive day. Several men hold hands and form a circle, and women dance in the circle.

The men and women wore traditional clothes with smiles on their faces.

I stared blankly at the inverted triangle on the ground. It had been more than a year since I last saw this pattern.

I vaguely heard someone calling my name.

Suddenly! I took a closer look and saw that the eyes of the old lady burning stones in front of me turned milky white, with only white eyes and no black pupils!

My feet gave way for no reason and I fell down!

His head hit the ground, less than ten centimeters away from the smoking fire!

"Yunfeng!"

"What's wrong with you! Get the paper!"

"Bring me some paper!" Xiaoxuan shouted with fear in her eyes.

I stretched out my hand and felt it. I didn’t know what was going on. My nose was bleeding.

I immediately raised my head.

Xiaoxuan hurriedly wiped it with paper for me, but it didn't stop.

Blood flowed down my nose, drop by drop, and wet the clothes on my chest.

"Water! Give me water!"

Brother Yu panicked and held my neck, dipped his hands in cold water, and patted my head hard.

"Fengzi! Fengzi! Open your eyes!" Tou and Bean sprouts also called me loudly.

I feel like I just can't breathe! It's like an invisible hand is strangling my neck!

At this time, a girl carrying a backpack squeezed out of the crowd. She quickly ran to me, took a look, and immediately said loudly: "I am a doctor! This is acute altitude sickness! Who has oxygen! Who has it?"

Bring oxygen!"

No one around responded.

"Who has oxygen! This will kill people!"

The girl carrying the bag looked anxious. She turned her head, suddenly bent her upper body, and met my lips.

My tongues touched together uncontrollably. My lips felt numb and my mind went blank.

Then the girl raised her head, slapped my face with her hand and said, "How's it going? Stop talking! Just focus on your breathing!"

I adjusted my breathing. After a few minutes, the situation slowly improved and the nosebleeds stopped.

Xiaoxuan cried and shouted: "Yunfeng, what's wrong with you! You scared me to death! Yunfeng, tell me
Say something! Say something to me!"

"Don't let him speak yet, let him rest for a while."

"Has he never been to the plateau before? This is acute hypersensitivity! If there is no one around, it will kill someone!"

The boss said hurriedly: "Girl, thank you so much. We don't even understand. You have helped us a lot."

"You're welcome. This is all as it should be. I'm also here to travel to Kangding."

I turned my head and looked around. At this moment, the old lady's eyeballs were no longer pure white, but black and white like normal people. At that moment, I must have hallucinated due to lack of oxygen.

Lao Zhang, the owner of the B&B, said: "Hey! Little brother, you scared me so much that I didn't dare to speak. Why do you have such a serious case of high altitude sickness? We haven't reached high altitudes yet! Pomegranate Village is going up.

After walking for 10 kilometers, you will reach the high altitude area!”

I tried to stand up, and Xiaoxuan immediately supported me.

"No. I'm fine. I just let everyone worry about it."

I bent down and said, "Are you a doctor? Thank you for saving my life just now. It's a small thing, but I hope you'll accept it."

"What are you doing? It's a doctor's duty to save people. I don't want your money, so put it away quickly!"

I misunderstood. I took 300 yuan. I thought it was too little, so I went to grab it from my bag.

"Oops! I told you no!"

She smiled happily and said: "Let's do this! If you really feel sorry for me, just treat me to a meal."

I said of course that's no problem.

I found a place that sold food, and I was not stingy at all. I ordered everything. Kangding yellow jelly, pickled cabbage noodles, butter buns with butter tea, beef porridge, etc., and ordered a large table.

At the dinner table, we learned that her surname was Fu, and her name was Fu Zhu. She was from Congtai, Handan, thousands of miles away. This surname was not common.

Fu Zhu looks ordinary, but has fair skin, clean hair, a round face, and bangs. She has a girl-next-door look. She said she is an intern at Congtaichung Hospital in Handan and is 22 years old.

"Miss Fu, is it okay if I call you that?"

She smiled, her eyes turned into crescent moons, and said, "Okay, I like to travel and make friends. I'm easy to talk to. You can also call me Zhuzhu."

Before I could say anything, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my foot.

Xiaoxuan bit a chopstick and looked at me sideways. Under the table, she stepped on me hard.

I quickly said: "Miss Zhu, eat vegetables, eat vegetables. There is so much left. If you don't eat it, it will be wasted."

She smiled, not politely, stretched out her chopsticks to pick up the yellow jelly placed in front of her head.

The boss was also smiling.

But suddenly, I don’t know what happened, but I saw the smile on the boss’s face slowly disappear.

"Zhuzhu!"

"Why did you get a meal here! I thought you went somewhere else and made me have a hard time!"

"Who are these" .??.

The speaker was a young man, about the same height as me, with tanned skin, short hair, bright eyes, and he looked very energetic.

"Oh, cousin, they are friends I just met. Well, they even invited me to dinner. I still don't know what your names are?"

I said my name was Xiang Feng, and of course the others gave me pseudonyms.

"Hello, Zhao Zhiping, I am cousin Zhuzhu."

"Don't eat Zhuzhu. Didn't you watch the beginning? The big thangka has been carried out. Let's go. We still need to take pictures."

He thanked me again for the meal, and the two of them left together.

Dou Sprout was so full of food that he couldn't talk. Brother Yu didn't eat chili and was filling his own small bowl with beef porridge. Xiaoxuan whispered in my ear: "Do you still care about me? Is she prettier than me? Don't think too much about it."

, this person is talking to you just to save you."

I said of course I know, she is not as good-looking as you, and you are the most beautiful.

"Yunfeng, have you finished eating? Come out for a moment."

When I came out of the house, I saw that the villagers had raised a giant thangka. The thangka was at least five meters high and five meters wide. It was supported by a row of sticks. The painting should be Green Tara, and the whole body was painted with

It is hand-painted with mineral pigments and is very shocking to see.

When the wind blows, the giant thangka makes a chirping sound, and the green Tara's eyebrows and eyes in mid-air are lifelike and flutter in the wind, as if she has come to life.
Seeing this scene, many Tibetans knelt down.

They held small thangkas, raised their hands above their heads, and worshiped devoutly.

When the sun shines down, it is really a wonderful sight of thousands of people kneeling to Tara.

I saw Fu Zhu not far away. She was holding a small SLR camera and was concentrating on taking pictures. Her cousin named Zhao Zhiping was also taking pictures.

"Yunfeng, didn't you see?"

"What do you see?"

He looked at Fu Zhu not far away and said, "This girl is not a doctor."

"Ah? Boss, how do you know she's not a doctor? Ren Gang saved me?"

He raised his head and frowned and said, "Saving you means saving you. These are two different things. Just now, when she reached out to pick up vegetables, I noticed that her index finger and middle finger were exactly the same length."

The fingers are the same length? I really didn't notice this.

I asked the boss what that meant?

The head said: "It means that she is not a doctor, she is a thief and a professional pickpocket."

"Little thief?! Professional pickpocket! The boss! How is that possible!"

"How is it impossible?"

He said coldly: "In the past, girls like this would be trained when they were five or six years old. They would use a file to grind the skin and flesh of their two fingers into the same length. I have seen little quick hands.

Lou’s fingers look like this too.”

"I don't understand. Even if you are a thief, why would you want to break off your fingers?"

He turned his head towards me, stretched out his fingers and said: "Plain your middle finger flat, so that it is even with the index finger. In this way, the two fingers will be the same length, making it easy to steal, just like chopsticks. If the chopsticks are long or short, it will be inconvenient to use."

."

Just then, I heard someone shouting: "It's coming, it's coming! Thangka is coming out!"

It was the giant thangka from the Tang Dynasty that Lao Zhang was talking about, which was carried out by a group of people.

"Give way! Give way, everyone!"

My head and I looked at it.

Fuzhu and her cousin in the crowd were seen snapping pictures at the giant thangka being carried out. Then they put down their cameras and looked at each other.

Fu Zhu slowly stuck out his tongue and licked his mouth.
