In Daqing Mountain, there are eighteen mountain roads, and an off-road vehicle is wandering lonely on it in winter.
"Doctor Qi, why don't you stay in the city for one night and go up to the mountain early tomorrow morning?" The driver was a young man, dark and thin, and quite talkative for a child born in the mountains.
While he was driving relaxedly, he looked at the woman in the passenger seat.
The woman wore a white down jacket, her hair was permed and tied back, and she wore light makeup. She didn't wear a hairpin or earrings, but in the eyes of the young driver, she was the most well-dressed woman in the city.
The women in the Western theater troupe don't have this woman...well, they have taste.
As expected, they are people from a big place, and they are completely different at heart.
"There is a patient waiting for surgery. I gathered all the things and went back today so they can be used early tomorrow morning, otherwise he would have to wait another day." Qi Yue looked away from the car window and smiled at the driver.
She has an oval face, big black eyes, and two dimples exposed when she smiles.
"How old is Doctor Qi this year?" The little driver couldn't help but blurt out. After the words came out of his mouth, he felt a little embarrassed and blushed.
"I'm getting old." Qi Yue said with a smile, sizing up the driver with crooked eyes, "I was only in my third year of college when I was your age."
The driver quickly calculated in his mind that although he himself was a soldier, his sister at home was in college and was eighteen years old in her first year. After four years of study, she would be twenty-two years old and she would be exhausted...
"You're only twenty-two-three! How dare you call me old!" He grinned.
Qi Yue pursed her lips and smiled, knowing that the child had just done a mental arithmetic.
"Am I that young?" She smiled, rubbing her face with her hands, "I went to college for eight years."
The driver groaned and turned to look at Qi Yue.
"I'm already twenty-seven." Qi Yue smiled.
The driver chuckled.
"That's not old, but I dare not say old." He said, "Is Doctor Qi married?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the driver wanted to slap himself.
What's wrong with me today? I always ask questions I shouldn't ask. I'm not familiar with Dr. Qi...
Qi Yue had already turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window. After hearing this, she smiled and shook her head.
"Not yet," she replied, not offended.
"Doctor Qi is so good, but he has to be very selective..." the driver smiled and complimented.
Qi Yue smiled but said nothing.
The young driver didn't dare to talk any more and stuck out his tongue secretly to concentrate on driving.
Qi Yue looked at the cliffs flashing past the window, because the driver's words about marriage aroused her thoughts.
Twenty-seven years old is not young for the county where the driver is located, but for her living environment, getting married at this age is not something worth considering. Of course, for those who have a boyfriend, getting married is
It's almost on the agenda, probably before I turn thirty.
However, now she is not sure. Her boyfriend is getting married, but the bride is not her.
I didn’t expect that this vulgar advertising slogan would one day come into use.
Qi Yue sniffed, changed her position in her seat, and leaned her head on the backrest.
"Moon, why do you have to go there?"
"…. I studied in Yanjing and did clinical internships in Yanjing. I stayed in Yanjing directly after graduation and have been a resident doctor for two years. Director Guo values you so much that he has taken you to be the chief surgeon. I believe it will take less than three years.
You will be able to perform surgery independently..."
"..If you want to learn something, I won't stop you from studying. There are places abroad. Why do you have to come to remote mountainous areas? What can you learn here?"
"...Going to study abroad is gold-plated. Why do you go to this remote mountainous area? What do you want to learn? How to use herbal medicine to treat diseases? You are really talented, but don't waste your time. It will take you three years to go to this countryside.
, three years, if you sail against the current and do not advance, you will retreat. Moon, even if you come back, your future will be over..."
"...Your father had an accident and his future was over, and you still listened to him and said that the real training of skills is at the grassroots level! What nonsense! Don't you want a future? Don't think that you can have a political future by going to the countryside to support for a few years. Let's
This industry relies on technology to make a living, and this false reputation is useless...
"...You are becoming more and more unreasonable. We're done here..."
Qi Yue closed her eyes and exhaled, tilting her head to the window. The car made a lonely roar on the mountain road.
In fact, after he said so much, what he finally wanted to say was just the last sentence.
Just a year ago, Qi Yue's father suffered paralysis due to a surgical error. This medical accident ended his medical practice and political future.
Social competition is like this. Not only do you have to compete for your own abilities, but you also have to compete for your family background...
Qi Yue smiled mockingly to herself. Marrying that woman was indeed more suitable for her boyfriend...
So what if we have been in love for five years? Everything is expensive these days, but love is the cheapest.
Damn, you should have added some spice to the coffee that the guy poured...
well….
"Doctor Qi? Doctor Qi?"
The driver's careful question interrupted Qi Yue's thoughts, and she turned her head.
"Are you carsick?" The driver looked at her face worriedly.
Qi Yue shook her head and smiled.
"No, no, it's okay," she said, cheering up.
"This car is equipped with a new satellite TV... We, County Magistrate Zhang, like to watch TV. You can watch TV." The driver thought of something and said happily, and turned on the TV before Qi Yue could refuse.
Looking at the small screen, I’m afraid I’ll get motion sickness even if I don’t.
Qi Yue was grateful for the young man's kindness, smiled and thanked him without saying anything else.
The sound from the TV filled the car. With more sounds, Qi Yue felt that her empty heart was filled.
"… Audience friends, this archaeological discovery is an unexpected surprise. No one expected that there would be an ancient tomb buried under such a dirt bag. Judging from the scene, the sealing of the soil is intact. According to experts, this should be a noble tomb.
tomb…"
"We found a treasure." The driver was very excited, "I love watching grave-digging and tomb-robbery shows the most..."
Qi Yue had a dark look on her face, and her eyes unconsciously turned to the small screen. On the screen, the excited female host was crowded around several experts who were pumped with blood. The environment they were in was a tomb passage.
The background is a bluestone gate at the end of the tomb passage.
"...We will witness the moment when the tomb is opened in a moment...Professor Liu, tell me..."
The car stopped suddenly, and Qi Yue almost hit it if he wasn't careful.
"Here we are." The driver grinned.
We have reached the end of the mountain road here. Further ahead is a mountain road that cannot be driven. Standing on the mountainside and looking out, you can see sparse houses dotted not far away. An obviously newly built house is very conspicuous in a piece of flat land.
.
There is the township health center, where Qi Yue provides assistance.
Since she came here, people from other villages and towns and even people from the county town have also traveled across the mountains and rivers to get treatment from doctors from big cities. The originally deserted hospital has become lively, and the few rooms used as inpatient departments are not enough.
The old director simply donated his office, and the fellow villagers no longer regretted that such good houses built with poverty alleviation funds were wasted.
Qi Yue jumped out of the car, and the driver helped her get the medicine box from the back seat.
"Doctor Qi, can you get it yourself? There's still some way to go..." The driver looked at Qi Yue holding the first aid kit in his hand, then looked at the very steep path, and asked worriedly.
"It's okay, I'll take a shortcut and go straight down from here." Qi Yue said, looking at the sky again. Today's sky is gloomier than other times, and there are faint snow particles falling down. "It's snowing, you should go quickly."
, it will be difficult to walk on the mountain road when it gets dark."
In order not to worry the driver, Qi Yue left first after saying this.
The driver watched her go down the hill before getting in the car.
As the car started, the sound from the small TV filled the car again.
The driver was humming a song while driving quickly on the mountain road.
"….opened….."
The driver was so busy that he took time to look at the TV, waiting for the moment when a miracle would happen.
“….No gifts will be accepted during the holidays this year…”
"Fuck..." the driver cursed, unwilling to give in, so he had to wait patiently for one advertisement after another to pass.
It’s just that today’s ad is extra long…
At this time, at the other end of the TV, the female host looked at a group of depressed experts with ugly faces.
"Why is there nothing?"
A man with gray hair was wandering around the tomb in a somewhat crazy manner.
"Looking at the structure of the tomb, it is undoubtedly the tomb of a wealthy family?..." The others also looked confused, "How come there are no accompanying burials?"
After spending a long time, there was nothing in the end. The female host was also very angry. This was not a trick on the audience, and her job would be destroyed.
"Could it be that you are mistaken? It is not the tomb of a prince or a high official, or it may have been visited by tomb robbers..." she interjected.
"How could we get it wrong? Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!" Questioning their own authority, the old experts suddenly became furious. Even a beautiful host was rude and stared.
"Then how come the princes and nobles are not buried with him!" The female host had never received such treatment, and she said with a rude snort.
Yes, how could it not be? The experts were immediately relieved...
"Teacher, the coffin is open!" a student who was busy handling the coffin shouted loudly.
This sentence made everyone rush over, and the cameras and lights rushed to follow.
There is a white bone in the coffin, and it looks like the body is lying on its side.
The clothes had long since disappeared. The hostess covered her mouth and nose and looked around. There was no other ancient coffin in front of her. After the coffin was opened, jade, gold, silver and other utensils were scattered along with the burial objects. There was nothing but bones...
It's over, this time it was all in vain.
"The live broadcast time is up, we can't delay it any longer..." the person over there urged.
"Whatever is being broadcast, there is nothing." the female host said angrily.
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a shout from an expert. She hurriedly turned around and saw an expert pinching something from under the skeleton with crossed arms.
"What is this?" he murmured, raising the object to his eyes.
The snow particles finally turned into flakes. After the last turn, the car drove steadily into the plain. The driver breathed a sigh of relief and could focus on the small TV.
Several experts on TV were busy cleaning something, and the female host was explaining endlessly.
"...Okay, everyone, look, this is what was taken out from under the corpse..."
The driver couldn't help but widen his eyes as he looked at the close-up of a device placed on a tray.
"Huh?" The driver couldn't help rubbing his eyes, "Isn't this a scalpel or something?"
The driver had never seen her before. When he picked up Qi Yue in the county town, he saw her organizing the first aid kit, which contained these things.
Questions from the female host also appeared on the screen.
"So expert, what are you looking at?"
The expert looked confused and picked it up with gloved hands.
After cleaning, the instrument returned to its original appearance, shining brightly under the camera light as the experts turned it.
"This is... a scalpel..." the expert murmured, "and it's made in Germany..."
"Germany?" The hostess and the driver exclaimed at the same time.
"Holy crap..." the driver scolded, "Even the archeology program has become more scientific... It's really unwatchable..."
He turned off the TV with a snap, and also turned off the female host's giggle and unfinished words.
"...Teacher Zhang is joking... Anyway, we can tell that this must be the owner's favorite thing... There is nothing but this one... and it seems to be held in his arms, so what about this...
Holding me in my arms lasts a thousand years..." (To be continued)
