The uncle was also a little confused by this operation. He also did not expect that the adopted cat had a deep connection with the young man in front of him.
Now that the kitten has found its original owner, the old man seemed very happy and couldn't help but say:
"It seems like it's fate. When I first picked up this cat, it was dying and no one wanted it."
"And at that time, there happened to be a fire nearby. I thought that this cat might have escaped from the fire scene. If it was burned like this, no one would want it."
"Seeing how serious the injury was, no one cared about it, so we simply took it back for treatment."
Picking up the kettle, the old man took a sip of water, and then continued to explain:
"At that time, I clearly remember that the cat lay in my house for more than ten years before it recovered. During this period, I kept giving it medicine. Anyway, it took a long time."
"Originally, I thought that the cat might not be able to survive. Anyway, I didn't have any psychological burden. I originally wanted to save the cat's life."
"But after the cat was weak for more than ten days, it miraculously recovered. Later, it slowly improved."
"I feed it delicious food every day, and it becomes stronger day by day. Even the burned area will never recover."
"So that's it?" After listening to the uncle's explanation, Zhuang Tianhe also felt guilty and said:
"At that time, I was also unconscious. When I woke up, I was already lying in the hospital and was in a coma for many days."
"Later, I wanted to look for my little flower, but it disappeared. I couldn't find it anymore. Then I felt that it might be dead and thrown into a trash can."
After sniffing, Zhuang Tianhe added: "To be honest, I felt quite guilty at that time. I didn't expect that I could meet Xiaohua again here."
Choking, Zhuang Tianhe continued: "I want to thank you, thank you for saving Xiaohua."
"Harm, what are you talking about? It's just a little effort." Seeing Zhuang Tianhe being so polite, the uncle also smiled and continued:
"If you really raised this cat, I would just give it back to you now."
"No." Seeing what the uncle said, Zhuang Tianhe waved his hand and refused:
"I want to live without a fixed abode. If the little flower follows me, it will only suffer. I think it is following you now, and its life is quite good, and it has its own children."
Having said this, Zhuang Tianhe touched the kitten's head and said happily:
"Maybe they can live a good life by following you."
After a pause, Zhuang Tianhe quickly said: "Uncle, please open the QR code for payment on your mobile phone."
"What's wrong?" When the uncle heard this, he was also stunned.
Zhuang Tianhe hurriedly said: "I will send you some money to thank you for taking care of Xiaohua over the years. Xiaohua saved my life. I should have thanked it. Seeing that it is still alive now, I am very happy."
Thanks you."
"It's harmful. I said it's just a piece of cake. Don't be like this. Although I don't make much, I can still have a companion by keeping one or two cats by my side."
With a faint sigh, the uncle added: "My wife passed away early, and the children work away from home all year round. I am the only one here."
"Fortunately, these two cats can stay with me and add a lot of fun to me."
"To be honest, I have long regarded the cat as one of my own. It's no big deal, so you don't have to be polite."
"If you want to take Xiaohua home, I won't stop you. If you want Xiaohua to stay here, you can come and visit Xiaohua when you have time. I'm also very welcome."
"Thank you." Zhuang Tianhe also choked up after hearing the uncle's understanding and righteous answer.
So Zhuang Tianhe quickly stood up, bowed to the uncle, and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome." The uncle waved his hand again and asked curiously:
"By the way, I remember back then that the place where the fire broke out was a small villa. Is that your home?"
"It used to be." Faced with the uncle's curiosity, Zhuang Tianhe replied calmly.
"Hey, your family must be quite rich, right? I heard that the villa is worth a lot."
"Haha, it's not my home now." Zhuang Tianhe sighed softly and said with emotion:
"Back then, my family had several villas like that, but now, they are no longer my family's property."
"What? The family business went bankrupt?" When the uncle heard this, he was also very curious.
Zhuang Tianhe also nodded silently and couldn't help but said: "You can understand it this way. It's almost like bankruptcy anyway. These villas now have nothing to do with me."
"It feels like it's very complicated inside." Listening to Zhuang Tianhe's story, the uncle seemed to be able to discern some clues.
After all, he is older and has experienced more things. Zhuang Tianhe's thoughts are all on his face, and the uncle can tell at a glance.
Zhuang Tianhe said with a smile: "My family is in decline. None of my family members are here anymore, and I have been working abroad for several years."
"Now here, I don't have a home, but my former home is here."
"Young man, you must have encountered some difficulty, right?" The uncle also noticed Zhuang Tianhe's thoughts and couldn't help asking curiously.
Zhuang Tianhe nodded silently: "Yes, but you can't help me. Only I can help myself."
"Young man, it's not a big deal. Thirty years to Hedong and thirty years to Hexi, there will always be a time when you will get ahead." The uncle seemed to be very inspirational and kept encouraging Zhuang Tianhe.
Zhuang Tianhe smiled and nodded silently.
The uncle said again: "By the way, I have prepared some food. How about you come to my house to eat and drink? I am quite bored by myself."
"Okay." Seeing that the uncle had said so, Zhuang Tianhe felt that there was no need to be reserved, so he walked into the uncle's room, which was a mobile container house.
The two were talking and laughing in the container house. It was not until very late that Zhuang Tianhe walked out of the scrap collection station and walked directly to his inn.
…
…
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Zhuang Tianhe staggered to the door of the inn, only to find a dark shadow near the inn.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhuang Tianhe glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and then quickly walked into the inn.
Not long after, the dark shadow followed closely and came to the door of the inn.
But after standing at the door and looking around for a few times, he was about to turn around and leave. However, after taking a few steps, he met Zhuang Tianhe head-on.
Zhuang Tianhe pulled the dark figure to the alley beside the inn.
The man in black was pushed to the ground, while Zhuang Tianhe stood in front of him, warning:
"Don't make small moves in front of me. Go back and tell Zhuang Hu that if you send someone to monitor me again, you will be responsible for the consequences."
"I'm sorry." The man in black seemed quite polite. He stood up, patted the dirt on his body, apologized directly, then passed Zhuang Tianhe and disappeared at the end of the alley.
Zhuang Tianhe let out a long sigh and leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.
It seems that from the moment I came back, I have been monitored in various ways.
This kind of pressure made me breathless, and I muttered: "Zhuang Hu, you bastard, when you come back this time, I must get back what I lost, I must."
After the words fell, Zhuang Tianhe raised his right hand and clenched his fist loudly.
After venting for a while, he turned around and came to the door of the inn, striding to his room.
…
…
The next morning, Zhuang Tianhe came to the gate of Furong Branch again.
This time, he was still sitting at the snack bar opposite the main gate of Furong Branch, eating Jiangnan pickled noodles.
But his eyes have been staring at Furong Branch for a long time.
After finishing breakfast, Zhuang Tianhe stood at the door of the shop. After letting out a faint sigh, he did not walk into the Furong branch, but turned around and left.
And all this was seen by Gu Chen, who drove back to Furong Branch.
Gu Chen said to Lu Weiwei, the co-pilot: "That person came here yesterday to report the crime."
"Which one?" Lu Weiwei turned to look out the window, but Zhuang Tianhe was no longer visible.
Gu Chen also reminded: "That's the one worth a few hundred yuan."
"Oh, it's him, so he's still here to handle the case?" Lu Weiwei said.
"Maybe, but it looks like something is wrong with its expression. It feels very worried."
"Junior Brother Gu, you can see this."
"Just a little bit."
…
While the two were talking, Gu Chen also parked the car, got out of the car, and walked towards the office with Lu Weiwei.
…
…
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhuang Tianhe set out from the inn carrying an outdoor backpack.
He first looked around the door for a while, and after making sure that no one was watching around, he started to walk out.
Zhuang Tianhe came to a bus stop and soon saw a bus.
After getting in the car, Zhuang Tianhe began to observe everything around him.
The destination of this bus is Jiangnan Yaju, which is a hotel outside the forest park.
After getting off the bus, Zhuang Tianhe started walking directly to the side of Jiangnan Yaju.
It is a road up the mountain that has not been completely repaired and is in a semi-developed state.
To put it simply, it is a dirt road plus some stone steps.
Usually there are many people here for outdoor exercise, that is, mountain climbing.
Not many people came here to climb the mountain today, so Zhuang Tianhe also quickened his pace and kept shuttling through the mountain paths.
An hour and a half later, Zhuang Tianhe arrived at a rest pavilion in the mountains. After finding no one around, he began to determine a specific direction.
This time, Zhuang Tianhe did not take the main road, but walked through a mud road at the rest pavilion into the mountains.
There is no road here, but Zhuang Tianhe can find a way.
After winding around the mountains for a while, he finally came to a valley.
And here, there is a huge rock that fell on the mountain path, forming a hollow state on the mountain path.
People should stand under this big rock to take shelter from the rain.
Around the big rocks, many people placed small wooden bars as supports.
Due to their large number, the small wooden strips here look densely packed, giving people a sense of comfort.
"It seems that there are a lot of people walking this wild road." Seeing this scene in front of him, Zhuang Tianhe's heart skipped a beat, feeling that more and more people were walking on this road now.
So Zhuang Tianhe continued to walk along his planned route.
After another hour of climbing the mountain road, Zhuang Tianhe arrived at the bottom of a cliff.
From here, there is a path up the mountain, basically along the cliffs.
To put it simply, it is a trail on the cliff.
Since there is no development here, there are no guardrails installed on the path on the cliff.
However, because there are many outdoor enthusiasts, everyone has repaired roads on the cliffs.
In some difficult places, the width of the road was repaired with wood.
There are also some steep locations where some people have installed some simple guardrails.
However, since there are not many people here, or in other words, there are not many people who dare to explore here, so it looks relatively original.
The cliff road is basically only half a meter wide, and in some places it is less than half a meter.
To walk on this road, it is impossible to reach the top of the mountain without absolute courage.
"Huh!" Looking at the dangerous cliff road in front of him, Zhuang Tianhe took a deep breath and said to himself:
"I haven't walked this road for a long time, and I don't know if I can still walk it now. If I fall, I really have to go back to the drawing board and start over."
After teasing himself, Zhuang Tianhe took a deep breath and began to climb along the narrow road at the bottom of the cliff.
Here you need to hold on to the cliff to walk slowly.
But fortunately, the height here is not too dangerous, so walking does not seem to be too difficult.
When Zhuang Tianhe walked to the first turning point, someone wrote words on the cliff with an oil-based pen.
Zhuang Tianhe also read seriously: "If you are afraid, it is still too late to turn back, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences."
"Haha." He laughed twice, and Zhuang Tianhe also laughed at himself: "We have come all the way here, is there any reason to go back? We have to keep going."
After finishing his words, Zhuang Tianhe continued walking towards the cliff path.
Walking back and forth along the cliff in a zigzag path.
Unknowingly, Zhuang Tianhe had arrived halfway up the cliff.
At this time, a strong wind blew around him, causing Zhuang Tianhe's body to sway.
But fortunately, Zhuang Tianhe came to the corner and quickly grabbed a big rock to keep his body in shape.
At this time, I looked down at my feet and saw that there was already an abyss.
If you fall from here, you can basically declare a reinvention.
"Haha, Zhuang Tianhe, Zhuang Tianhe, you actually come to a place like this? You really don't want your life, but you have no choice now."
After laughing at himself, Zhuang Tianhe took a deep breath and continued climbing up the cliff.
At this moment, Zhuang Tianhe was walking alone on the edge of the cliff, watching the falling rocks under his feet continue to roll down to the bottom of the cliff.
The sound of falling still made Zhuang Tianhe break into a cold sweat.
In order to maintain his condition, Zhuang Tianhe had no choice but to stop looking at his feet and started looking only at the top of his head.
Just like that, after walking for who knows how long, Zhuang Tianhe could already vaguely see the top of the mountain in front of him, as if he could climb to the top of the mountain in no time.
