In this way, the days passed day by day, and before I knew it, winter passed and the weather became warmer.
In the early morning of that day, the sun showed its head early, and Wang An drove back to his hometown. He had been away for nearly two months, and he missed the elderly at home very much.
We returned to the mountain village in the afternoon.
Compared with the Chinese New Year, the mountain village has become much deserted.
The remaining people in the village are middle-aged and elderly people in their fifties and above. Those young and middle-aged people have left the village after the Spring Festival. Some of them have gone to big cities like Hu'an to work hard, and some of them have gone to county towns.
Now the village is left with empty nesters and occasionally two left-behind children.
Wang An stopped the car and carried his bags to the door. He found that the door was locked and the two old people were not at home.
"I went out. Where did I go? Up the mountain?"
He turned around and looked at the forest not far away, then put his things back in the car and went up the mountain.
When he went up the mountain and saw no one around, he picked up his speed and walked quickly on the mountain road with the sound of wind in his ears. Soon he arrived next to the place where the two old men usually worked.
Sure enough, I saw two old people collecting firewood on the hillside near Tiandi.
At this time, it was a cold spring, and the mountain peaks were still a little cold. Seeing the backs of the two old people, Wang An sighed, and then walked in the direction of the two old people.
"Grandma, grandpa." He shouted from a distance.
The two old men turned around when they heard the shouting and were surprised to see Wang An.
"Xiao An, why are you back?"
At this moment, a head suddenly popped out of the forest not far away. A wild boar stared at the two old men, less than ten meters away from them.
"Be careful!" Wang An couldn't help but become nervous when he saw this, and the power in his body suddenly burst out, and he shot out.
He crossed more than three meters in one step. The moment he landed, he grabbed the ground with his soles and kicked off the ground. His strength exploded and he suddenly jumped out, leaving a footprint on the ground. He was like an arrow, like a galloping horse, running towards the two old men at a speed that ordinary people could not imagine.
in front of you.
The wild boar in the forest twitched its nose a few times and was obviously stunned. With a squeak, it turned around and ran away, as if it had thought of something terrible.
"Wild boar?!" The old man was also startled.
"In the past two years, there have been more and more wild boars in this mountain." Wang An's grandfather said.
"We have to set rules for them." Wang An stared at the woods and said.
"Set up rules. Wild boars are not humans. What rules do they know?"
"You understand, if you don't understand, let them all turn into dead pigs, roast pigs!" Wang And said, if he had been rushed by the wild boar just now and had not arrived in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.
"It's so cold today, why did you go up the mountain? Does your waist feel better?" After saying this, Wang An picked up the firewood tied in the old man's hand.
"Okay, it doesn't hurt anymore." The old man said with a smile.
"If it doesn't hurt, you can't rush out to work. You can go out for a walk, but you won't do heavy physical labor."
"The firewood at home is almost the same."
"Tomorrow, I will collect firewood for you."
Wang An carried firewood and accompanied the two old people down the mountain to go home.
"Did you come back alone this time?" Wang An's grandmother couldn't help but ask on the way home.
Well, Wang An nodded.
"How was your recent conversation with Hua Jie?"
"Well, um, I broke up with her." Wang An said directly after hesitating for a while.
"We broke up, why?" After hearing this, the old man stopped and stared at him and asked.
"It just didn't feel right."
"Why isn't it suitable? I think this girl is quite nice. Do you have a crush on another girl, or does she have a crush on someone else?" The old man asked as if he was breaking the pot.
"I, I like something better." Wang An pondered for a moment and lied.
"Better, what's your name, how old are you, what do you look like, where are you from, and do you have any photos? Show them to me and let me see." The old man immediately asked the classic five questions.
“Isn’t it appropriate to take photos of someone I just met?”
"We just met, how long have we known each other?" The old man was not ready to let Wang An go.
"Hey, less than a week." Wang An raised his hand and scratched his head.
"Didn't you lie to me?"
"No, if it happens, I will definitely bring her back to meet you." Wang An said with a smile.
After returning home, the first thing Wang An did after putting away his things was to help his grandfather check for waist problems.
After some inspections, Wang An breathed a sigh of relief. It had not deteriorated and was better than when he left. It seemed that his grandfather had not left Wu Qinxi behind during his absence.
"Grandpa, do you practice Wu Qin Xi from time to time?"
"No, I practice almost every day." The old man said.
"That's good, you have to keep going."
In the evening, Wang An went to the kitchen, cooked a sumptuous dinner, and drank two cups with the old man.
"Aren't you busy working in Hu'an?"
"Not busy." Wang An said with a smile.
The reason why he went back to his hometown this time was, firstly, because he had not been back for some days and wanted to come back to accompany the two old people. Secondly, it was because he was planning to go out and have a look at Taihe Mountain, which would probably take some time.
Can't come back.
"What are you doing with a big stone?" The old man pointed at the marble ball that Wang An took out from the car.
"Exercise." In addition to buying some gifts, Wang An also brought back such a stone ball.
After dinner and chatting with the two old men for a while, Wang An went to the yard to practice Tai Chi Cloud Hands alone.
The stone ball rotated and rolled between his hands. His hands were pushing, pressing, catching, exerting force, and releasing force, all on the stone ball.
After practicing Tai Chi Yunshou for a while, he went inside to rest.
Early the next morning, after practicing Wu Qin Xi with the two old men, he went up the mountain alone. Following the direction he came back from last time, he found the nest of the group of wild boars.
Smelling a familiar smell, the group of wild boars felt uneasy and stared in the direction of Wang An.
"I came to you today to set some rules."
Well, hum hum, the wild boars barked twice.
"Long time no see, come on, let's practice." After saying this, Wang An took the initiative and the group of wild boars dispersed.
Wang An was chasing after him, and there were a few small wild boars among them that naturally couldn't run fast.
He quickly caught up with him. Seeing that the child was about to suffer, the big wild boar hesitated for a moment, and then rushed towards Wang An at a very fast speed.
Seeing that he was approaching, Wang An dodged and raised his hand. The wild boar flew out and hit an old tree, wailing uncontrollably.
Those little wild boars dispersed in a hurry, and Wang An continued to hunt them in the mountains and forests.
Wherever he passed, countless mountain birds were startled.
In the valley, a wild boar stopped and sniffed the air with its nose twitching. He seemed to smell something.
But not a single person could be seen in the forest, only weeds and trees with fallen leaves.
