"Baby? I've never seen it before, so I really don't know what kind of baby it is..."
Zhang Fan had never seen the treasure that Erya was talking about. He was just curious about what this thing that Erya said was so magical was.
When Erya was talking to Zhang Fan, her steps slowed down a lot, and her head was almost touching Zhang Fan. The two of them were very close, and when Erya was talking, she rubbed against Zhang Fan intentionally or unintentionally.
She took the initiative to rub against him. At first, Zhang Fan thought the girl did it unintentionally, so he took a step back. But he didn't expect the girl to rub against him again. He couldn't tolerate this anymore.
"Be careful, if you push too hard, you'll fall into the ditch on the side..."
The roadsides in this mountain village are lined with drainage ditches.
Zhang Fan was reminding Erya that if she went too far, she would fall into the ditch.
Zhang Fan's words made Erya's face turn red, but she pretended not to understand and smiled at Zhang Fan. However, she didn't squeeze him anymore and didn't deliberately rub against him. She just smiled apologetically.
"Mr. Zhang, I'm just curious. You said there is something that glows at night, glows when the moon is out, and it glows in the soil. It's really strange..."
Erya kept saying "strangely", but she didn't slow down at all. They soon arrived at her yard.
The door to the yard was ajar. When Erya pushed the door, she heard a creaking sound. Erya turned on the light in the yard, asked Zhang Fan to sit down, and quickly took out a large plate of small peanuts with purple-red skin and placed it in front of Zhang Fan.
"Mr. Zhang, try our hand-pulled peanuts..."
As he was talking, he brought out some side dishes, including a boiled water chicken, deep-fried silkworm pupae, and a pot of rice wine.
Erya smiled and poured rice wine for Zhang Fan, asking him to eat and drink with her, but Zhang Fan refused.
"Didn't you say there was some treasure in the backyard? I'll go take a look and then go back to the square. Is there anything delicious to eat or drink? Don't waste time here..."
Zhang Fan could still see some of Erya's little thoughts.
He was just curious, what kind of treasure was that glowing thing that Erya was talking about?
But I don't want to give her a chance.
"Ah, why don't you drink some rice wine to warm up your body before going to the backyard? Ahem, Mr. Zhang, you, don't look at me like that, can't I take you there?"
Erya wanted to say something, but when she saw Zhang Fan's eyes, it seemed that those eyes had seen through her thoughts completely. At this moment, she dared not say anything and could only lower her head and agree to lead Zhang Fan to the backyard.
It is actually very easy to get to Erya’s backyard. You just have to walk through the corridor in the front yard.
However, there was no one waiting in the backyard of Erya's house. When the two of them walked over, it was pitch black with only the bright moonlight in the sky. Moreover, when they first entered, they suddenly went from a bright place to darkness, which temporarily affected their vision.
Zhang Fan suddenly felt a wind rushing towards him. He turned his body calmly and heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. Then he heard Erya shouting in a crying voice.
"Ouch, I sprained my ankle and it hurts!"
Erya's voice changed. She originally wanted to take advantage of the darkness to get into Zhang Fan's arms, but even though she could clearly see his direction, when she fell down, she did not touch Zhang Fan's body, but fell to the side instead.
It hurts so much when I fell!
"You'll be fine. Just show me where the glowing thing is..."
Although the light here was dim, Zhang Fan could still see Erya's condition clearly on the ground. At most, she had sprained her foot and was not seriously injured.
All Zhang Fan cared about at this moment was where was the treasure that she had always sworn to talk about?
Something that glows.
"Over there, right over there, you can't see it either. We've come here to look for it several times. Sometimes we can see the glow, and sometimes we can't. We don't know why, but I can promise that I won't lie to you. If you don't believe me, you can ask my father..."
Erya gritted her teeth and called out to Zhang Fan, then pointed to a protruding mound of earth not far away and asked him to go and have a look, saying that this was the place where light used to come out in the middle of the night.
They dug it up once but found nothing. But after a few days the light stopped coming out of there.
They have no idea what the specific reason is.
However, she dared to swear that she had definitely not lied to Zhang Fan and that there really was a treasure in her yard.
Even in the darkness, Zhang Fan could see that she looked anxious, and that expression didn't seem fake. Even if Erya had some shady ideas, she probably wouldn't lie to him.
So what could be under the mound?
Zhang Fan walked over and kicked the pile of dirt several times. He felt that the pile was very soft and not solid. There were weeds growing all around it. Only the area around the pile was clean.
At this time, I really couldn't see any heresy, nor did I see anything glowing in the pile of dirt.
Zhang Fan saw a shovel in the corner of the backyard wall, so he picked one up and started digging at the bumps with the shovel. He was very strong, so even if he just moved the shovel lightly, a lot of sand and dust was dug out.
There was nothing under the pile of earth. Zhang Fan narrowed his eyes, dug hard, and continued digging!
The square was very lively at this time, with a blazing fire. It had never been as prosperous as it was today. The fire symbolized that the village of Xiaoshan would become better and better.
Xiaoshan was drinking and did not dance along, but wherever he looked, he saw the dancing girls from the village.
Mr. Zhang said that he wanted to buy these mountains, these lands, transport the mushrooms and wild vegetables here, and build a school and airport here. Just hearing this makes people excited, and they feel that the small mountain village will become very different in the future.
If that time really comes, will you still leave?
Do you want to go back to the city?
Xiaoshan didn't know. He just knew that as his hometown became better and better, the children there could go to school locally, and patients like his grandfather would not have to wait until death because of the long journey.
There was a faint voice in Xiaoshan's heart. He didn't want to leave anymore. He wanted to stay at home with his parents and change this small mountain village.
The fate of the people in the mountains will change completely.
At that time, Mr. Zhang definitely did not have enough people around him, and he definitely needed someone like me to help him.
Although the city lights are bright and the city nights are bustling, he has no place for himself and can only live in the basement.
If there is really an opportunity in his hometown, he is willing to stay.
I just don’t know if Mr. Zhang is willing to follow him?
Xiaoshan was a little hesitant and looked for Zhang Fan everywhere in the square, but he couldn't see anyone. This made Xiaoshan ask Daniu, but Daniu winked at him and told him not to ask any more questions.
