There are mountains in the south

Just after a rain, the fresh air of trees and soil floated in the air. Crystal clear drops of water dripped from the leaves and eaves, and the drops made a soft "click" sound on the ground, countless "clicks" "The sound formed the symphony of nature in this early morning.

The symphony continued outside, cigarettes curled up in the temple, and a few steamed buns and pears were offered in front of the statue. Although it was a temple, there were not many people. It was very deserted. Only a handsome young man in a white shirt, slacks, and white shoes leaned against the door frame. Looking at the green hills in the distance outside the door with clear eyes, I don’t know what I’m thinking about, and I don’t know how long I’ve been standing there, maybe I’ve been there before the rain, maybe I watched the scenery after the rain stopped.

-

"Grandpa, I want pears."

"Good boy, when the rain stops, grandpa will pick it for you."

So Qin Tan sat on Grandpa's lap and obediently waited for the rain outside to stop.

The memory is already a little fuzzy, so blurry that I almost can’t remember what my grandfather’s face looked like. The only thing that is still fresh in my memory is that my grandfather went to pick pears for a long time. When it was dawn, grandpa didn't come back either.

In the evening, when Tan Tan returned to the thatched boat, the sun had already set in the west, leaving only a little afterglow that could not go away for a long time. The scarlet clouds in the sky were printed on the ripples of the water surface. Boat.

The furnishings in the thatched boat are very simple, with a small square table in the middle, two small footstools, and a big black umbrella hanging on the wall.

Tan Tan took the small bench out of the awning and put it on the edge of the boat, took out the small cardboard box in the corner, leaned against the pillar, and prepared to enjoy it.

Tan Tan tore off the sealed tape and lifted the paper cover, only to see a red-haired little fox hugging a walnut-gnawing Zheng Huan, as if realizing that the light had suddenly brightened, he raised his head and rolled his eyes, Tan Tan Zhang was stunned, he had never seen such a bold little animal stealing his food.

Before Xiao could react, the little red fox jumped out of the cardboard box, slid past Xiao's feet, and ran out of the thatched boat in the blink of an eye, running desperately up the mountain.

Qin Yan laughed out loud, this red-haired fox is really fast, the key is that he didn't forget to throw away the walnut he was holding in his hand even after running away, which shows that he is an extremely delicious little animal.

Tan Tan looked at the mess in the cardboard box, and there was a small hole dug by the red fox on the side to steal it, and sighed sadly. The nuts that arrived yesterday were just ruined. Speaking of which, the red fox It's also pretty nasty.Tan Tan dug out the only bag of pistachios that had not been damaged by the fox's claws from the bottom of the cardboard box. She peeled the shell and slowly enjoyed it. While chewing, she thought, it's time to order again, hey, the shipping fee is so expensive!

After a good night's sleep, Tan Tan went up to the mountain just after dawn the next day, and after burning incense on the enshrined statue, he came down slowly. He was going to borrow a tool from the neighbor on the next mountain. It was time to repair and repair his thatched boat. , otherwise it will leak when it rains.

Qin Yan just took a few steps out of Nanlin Mountain and then backed away. He took off his little white shoes and changed into a pair of black leather boots in the thatched boat. After all, it only rained yesterday, and the mountain road was muddy. stone steps.It was close to dusk when Tan Tan came back after borrowing enough tools. The back basket was full of tools, and there was still a large lot of lotus seeds wrapped in lotus leaves in his arms.

Tan Yan put the lotus seeds on the stool he moved out yesterday, carried the basket into the tent, took out the tools one by one and put them away, and stretched himself out to peel the lotus seeds, but found that the lotus seeds were It has been scattered on the deck, and what is even more annoying is that more than half of the lotus seeds are gone!gone! ! !

Tan Tan saw a suspicious red figure on the bank jumping into the woods with excellent eyesight, and suddenly angrily pointed in the direction where the red-haired fox disappeared, and cursed: "If you dare to come again, I, I will break your legs !snort!!"

After scolding the red-haired fox away (not), Tan Yan was very angry, and now a fox dares to come and grab food from him, it is simply disgusting!

But he said that the red-haired fox didn't run very far, and he didn't get angry when he heard Tan Yan scolding it. Instead, he stood under a pear tree and licked his paws contentedly until the fluffy fur on the paws became wet and collapsed. Going down, he glanced at the tented boat with a faint look, and then continued to run up the mountain slowly.

The next day, Tan Cang went up to the mountain to burn incense on the statue as usual, but he found a ball of fluffy stuff on the futon, which seemed to be alive, and the hairball rose and fell with breathing, and he slept soundly.

Tan Yan recognized at a glance that it was a small animal that robbed him of food, and was so angry that he immediately wanted to beat the fur ball away with a stick, but when he saw the red-haired fox with its eyes closed and peacefully nestled on the futon, it was very harmless. Immediately, the anger subsided again, and he bowed silently to the god, saying: "Loving animals is everyone's responsibility."

After going down the mountain, Qin Yan started his big business—repairing the tented boat and mending the leaking places.As a result, the entire Nanlin Mountain remembered the voice of Dang Dangyu. Nanlin Mountain was particularly silent when there were fewer people, and a sound could be heard throughout the mountain.

The red-haired fox was dreaming that he had a hole of lotus seeds, which he couldn't finish eating, and was about to give some to the poor man at the bottom of the mountain when he was woken up by the sound of clang clang clang clang.

The red fox rubbed his eyes with his paws, stepped off the futon, hey, since you don't want me to bring you food, then forget it.

The life in Nanlin Mountain is very peaceful, and Qin Tian likes this kind of life very much. There is no WiFi or internet here, it is plain, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and will not be woken up at night by the sound of car horns on the street outside.Tan Tian enjoys the mountain life alone.

The next day, the water on the thatched boat ran out, and Tan Tan carried a bucket to a small natural pool halfway up the mountain to fetch water. With a bucket full of water, he walked up a few steps, and suddenly felt that the sunset glow was very beautiful today. I couldn't help but sit down and watch the sunset with my head in a daze.

Tan Tan watched the sunset moving inch by inch, and felt that it moved too slowly. If he could finish it in a while, after a while, he would really go to the bottom of the mountain when he saw the sunset. Moved too fast.

The sun had already set, and the red glow was no longer visible in the sky, but Tan Tian was still sitting there.If I remember correctly, there will be fireflies on the mountain during this season.

After entering the night completely, Tan Yan is not afraid of any wild beasts in the dark night.The moonlight poured down, illuminating the earth as bright as day.

Finally, Tan Cang found a small firefly, which flew from behind him to in front of him, glowing faintly, fluttering its wings, and flying around Tan Cang up and down.

Qin Qin thought, this firefly is the star on Nanlin Mountain, and Nanlin Mountain is a big moon, glowing with light, and he is sitting on the moon of Nanlin Mountain, surrounded by a star.

The firefly didn't fly for a long time before it fell, and the body fell beside Tan Tan's white shoes. Tan Tan carefully picked up the body and threw it outside the stone steps, so as not to accidentally step on it when going up the mountain.

He patted his butt, and was about to go down the mountain, when he suddenly remembered that red-haired fox. He had seen it every day for the past three days, but today he didn't run over and shake it in front of his eyes.

Turning around, picking up the bucket, and raising his head, he suddenly found that the red-haired fox who had just chanted was sitting on a few steps behind him, his slender eyes were staring at him without blinking, and behind the red-haired fox was a A large group of fireflies flew around the trees, the grass, and their companions. Each one was shining brightly, and the red-haired fox was really beautiful against the stars all over the mountain.

Strange, why are all these fireflies behind him, the firefly just now was just a lost one?

A good night's sleep, what I saw last night seemed like a dream, but it was exceptionally clear.

As usual, I went up to the mountain to enjoy incense, but just as I came down the mountain, I heard thunder roaring and heavy rain pouring down. When Qin Yan ran back to the thatched boat from the foot of the mountain, his clothes were soaked.

After changing his clothes, Tan Yan looked at the heavy rain hitting the water outside, and the ripples were scattered by another ripple before it spread out. It was getting darker, so he couldn't help smacking his lips, it hadn't rained so big for a long time It's raining.

Just as he was about to turn around to look for something to eat, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a completely white figure running up the mountain. He was startled, and hurriedly shouted: "Hey, it's raining heavily. If you run up the mountain, your clothes will get soaked. Don't wait until I see you." Come and hide from the rain!"

The white figure paused, turned around and ran towards the straw shed boat, entered the tent, and smirked at Qin Yan: "Brother, thank you!" As he spoke, he wiped the rain on his face with his wide sleeves.

It was only then that Qin Can noticed the wide-sleeved long shirt this brother was wearing, and it was soaked through.

"Brother, what are you doing here, wearing an ancient costume and coming here to get wet in the rain?"

"Xiaosheng Liang Yu, I came here to see the scenery." I came to see your thatched boat.

"Hey, you're creative! You're the first one to come to play in Nanlin Mountain in ancient costumes." As he spoke, he patted Liang Yu on the shoulder.

Liang Yu received this slap, and his upper body fell backwards involuntarily. He quickly moved his feet back a small step to stabilize his figure, but he kept saying, "I wonder if there is an inn nearby, so that Xiaosheng Stay for a few days."

As soon as these words came out, Tan Yan stared straight at him: "You didn't come here from ancient times, did you?"

Liang Yu was so frightened that he took two steps back, and accidentally kicked over the small footstool behind him.

Seeing this little brother flustered like this, Tan Can burst out laughing: "Haha, don't panic, I'm the successor of socialism, and I won't believe in these things." No wonder!

Grandpa said, Nanlin Mountain has everything! ! !

Qin Tan found another clean clothes and put on Liang Yu's clothes, only to see Liang Yu kept poking his exposed arms with both hands.

Oh, not used to it!Fortunately, grandpa also said that these things in Nanlin Mountain are good, and bad things can't get in.

Otherwise... huh!

"What's your name, how should I call you?" Liang Yu changed to a modern way of saying, hey, I'm really not used to this kind of way of saying!

"My name is Qin Yan, you can just call me by my name."

"Well."

"How tall are you?" Tan Zhen realized that Liang Yu was really tall, so he stood like this, and had to raise his head slightly to see Liang Yu's face.

Liang Yu looked at Tan Tan and frowned and asked herself, "Am I too tall?" Next time, I'll be shorter!

"No... your height is very suitable, I still want to grow, but it has stopped growing since last year, alas!"

"Then...do you eat more?" I don't know how to make people grow taller, as long as you don't dislike me for being too tall!

The two of them were talking, and the rain outside stopped. Summer rain always comes and goes quickly.

Liang Yu had no reason to stay any longer, and reluctantly said: "Then... I'll go first."

"See you."

Seeing that the other party didn't even raise his head, Liang Yu had no choice but to turn around and walk away.

Qin Tan moved out the small bench again, sat down and propped his head on his hands, staring at the water in a daze.

The long coat that Liang Yu had just taken off in the canopy slowly changed from white to red, and then slowly disappeared little by little.

Tan Tan saw it out of the corner of his eye, but didn't care.

Under the pear tree at the foot of the mountain, the red-haired fox appeared again, and it sat there, licking its paw with its tongue, wet the fur on this paw, and changed to another paw, looking up from time to time A man in a daze on a thatched boat.

On the second day, Tan Yan went up to the mountain to burn incense as usual, which was explained by his grandfather when he was there. As long as he was in Nanlin Mountain, he would go up to the mountain to burn incense every morning. Which god is enshrined.

Tan Yan put three sticks of incense into the censer, faced the statue, and clasped his hands together: "I have been back for more than a month, and the life here is still peaceful, but school will start again soon, I am a bit reluctant!"

Stepping out of the temple gate, I saw the white-clothed man from yesterday wearing the same white robe and sitting on a big rock, smiling at himself.

"I stayed in Nanlin Mountain yesterday, where do you think I rested?"

"Nanlin Mountain has beautiful scenery, and there are no prehistoric and wild beasts. You can rest for a night anywhere." Especially if you are a monster!

Tan Yan said as he walked down the mountain on his own, Liang Yu jumped off the big rock and followed behind.

"Don't follow me!" Tan Yan suddenly turned his head and yelled at Liang Yu.

"You..." Seeing that Tan Yan's eyes were red, Liang Yu immediately stopped wanting to yell back.

Tan Tan felt that he had lost his composure, and he was not familiar with this person, so there was no reason to get angry at him.

"Forget it, it's up to you, anyone can walk this road."

Liang Yu wanted to continue to follow, but seeing that the other party was depressed, he was afraid that he would be annoyed if he followed, so he said: "I will return your clothes tomorrow." Then he climbed up the mountain again.

Seeing that the other party no longer followed him, Tan An became even angrier for some reason.

Angrily walking to the foot of the mountain step by step, he almost broke the stone steps to express his depression.

I'm leaving in a few days, if you don't follow me, I'm afraid you won't be able to follow me in the future, hum!

Only a few steps away from the foot of the mountain, I saw a red-haired fox squatting on the last step at the foot of the mountain, looking at him with watery eyes, like a pet waiting for its owner to return home.

Tan Tan ran down, picked up the red-haired fox, and touched the fox's head to tail with his bony hands. It felt very smooth and slippery to the touch. At first, he just wanted to hug it and put it down in an instant. It's changed, I can't stop fluffing!

"I won't drive you away today, just stay with me." As he spoke, he stroked the fox's fur and walked towards the boat canopy.

The red-haired fox didn't feel bad either, he narrowed his eyes enjoying it, and rubbed his head against Tan Tan's palm to express his comfort.

It was still on the small bench outside the boat canopy. Tan Yan was sitting with his legs together, with a red-haired fox nestled on his legs. With his white and clean hands, he was slowly peeling the melon seeds one by one, and feeding the melon seeds to him after peeling each one. into the fox's mouth.

This bag of melon seeds just arrived yesterday. Online shopping is not easy in this deep mountain and old forest, so I just fed it to the fox. Tan Yan didn't feel distressed, but was very happy.I arrived yesterday and there were some nuts that were eaten by a fox last time. Presumably this fox should also like it.

Slowly peeling half of a large bag of melon seeds, Tan Yan came back to his senses, he actually fed so many melon seeds to the fox!The fox didn't make a sound, but it was really delicious, and it wasn't afraid of getting angry!

If the red-haired fox knew that his mount had such thoughts, he would probably snort disdainfully, then raise his head proudly, and tell the mount that he would never get enough to eat, of course, get angry?That is impossible.

Tan Tan put the red-haired fox down, stood up and clapped his hands, knocking off the debris between his fingers, then squatted down, and looked at the fox face to face.

"It's been so long since you've been out, will your parents be worried?"

The red-haired fox froze for a moment, then shook his head.

"Then you will stay with me all day, okay?"

The red-haired fox was taken aback for another moment, then nodded.

"You can understand me?" Could this fox be a monster too?But it seems that he hasn't cultivated human form yet, so he shouldn't be too powerful a monster.

In fact, there is nothing Qin Can do if he keeps the fox. He just sits with the fox for a day and brushes its fur for a day.

But this fox is very greedy, Tan Tan didn't dare to feed the fox half a pack of sunflower seeds, fearing that it would get angry, but the fox quietly stretched out its paws to catch the sunflower seeds while Tan Tan squinted his eyes and dozed off.

The sound of the paws being inserted into the plastic packaging bag woke up Tan Cang. Seeing the cautious look of the red-haired fox, Tan Cang couldn't help shaking his head.

Seeing that the red-haired fox was about to catch a few melon seeds, his little head was knocked out suddenly, and he immediately realized that he had been caught stealing the melon seeds, so he turned his head and looked at Tan Tan with watery eyes.

Tan Tan looked at the fox's innocent eyes, as if he had bullied it, and couldn't help but tap the fox on the head again.

"You, you, why are you so greedy, good boy, I'll peel the rest for you tomorrow." As he said that, he gathered up the melon seeds and took them into the boat tent.

The red-haired fox squatted outside, watching the white figure enter the canopy, his eyes widened, he threw the only two melon seeds in his paws into his mouth, chewed them randomly, and then spit out the melon seeds shell, eating them thoroughly. That's called proficiency.

After swallowing the melon seeds, he followed into the boat tent with strides.

The fox's fur is slippery and soft. Tan Yan was in a daze, and unconsciously rubbed the fox's fur with his hands. There was warm meat under the fur. The fox was like a heat source, and the whole body was warm when holding the fox. In this big summer, Tan Yan didn't feel irritable, but the more he kneaded, the more he couldn't stop.

In summer, Nanlin Mountain is very noisy at night. The cicadas in the forest make a lot of noise, and the frogs croak once or twice from the bank. Tan Wei hugs the warm and soft red fox, and the cicadas croak the frogs. The cry fell asleep.
