Tian Chengcheng felt a pain in her heart and couldn't help but sympathize with him.
What a poor little cannon fodder! It is clear that people with poor childhoods set up this.
"You'll be able to afford it in the future. I want to eat delicious food every day. If you follow me, at least I can let you have some soup. If you become successful in the future, don't forget me."
Tian Chengcheng said this with a smile, and did not forget to remind him, so that he would not turn his back on her when he became successful.
"I won't forget it." Fu Xinhan's eyes were firm.
Tian Chengcheng was very satisfied. You kid still has a conscience.
At that time, she never dreamed that Fu Xinhan was such a stubborn guy. His excellent quality of doing what he said was sometimes really annoying.
By the time Fu Xinhan finished his meal, the sun had already risen. In order to save time and avoid the villagers, the three decided to take a small road.
News about Xiaolu quickly flashed through Tian Chengcheng's mind.
The path is just across the river, and it's a more than ten-mile mountain road. That section of the road passes through a cemetery. Few people walk there, as it is said that there are unclean things there.
She is an atheist, so of course she is not afraid.
Tian Hengyuan was a little worried. He was a college student and of course he didn't believe or fear those things. But the old people said that children had weak constitutions and were easily contaminated by dirty things.
So he regretted it after he said he would take the shortcut.
"Or, we can just take the main road and walk a little further," said Tian Hengyuan.
"Uncle, let's take the small road. It's a lot farther over there. I'm afraid I can't make it." Tian Chengcheng said pitifully.
Why would she walk more when there was a shortcut? She didn't want to.
Tian Hengyuan didn't mention the graveyard, but only said, "The mountain road is difficult to walk on, let's take the main road. If you get tired, your uncle will carry you on his back."
"No, I like to take the small paths. Maybe I can pick up some pheasant eggs on the way and take them to the city to sell." Tian Chengcheng was determined and ran towards the river with a small bamboo basket on her back.
Fu Xinhan guessed why Tian Hengyuan didn't want to take the shortcut. He glanced at Tian Chengcheng and chased after him.
"Fubao, why don't you take the main road? There's a cemetery on the small road. It's so eerie and scary when you walk past it."
Fu Xinhan thought that Tian Chengcheng was a child and just needed to be scared.
Tian Chengcheng blinked her eyes, showing no fear at all. Instead, she looked at him as if he were a little fool.
"I forgot to tell you that my uncle found me at the cemetery. I wasn't afraid when I was so young, so I'm even less afraid now."
"...Are you really not afraid?"
"What's there to be afraid of? Living people are scarier than dead people." Tian Chengcheng smiled. "Think about it, those who bullied you were all alive. Have dead people ever bullied you?"
Fu Xinhan thought for a moment and said, "No."
Tian Chengcheng originally just wanted to tease Fu Xinhan, but she didn't expect him to think about this problem seriously, and she couldn't help laughing.
"You're stupid."
Fu Xinhan's face looked unhappy. He felt ashamed to be called stupid by a little girl.
Tian Hengyuan caught up and pulled Tian Chengcheng, "Fubao, if you're not afraid, let's go from here. When we pass the cemetery, your uncle will carry you on his back."
"I can walk on my own."
Tian Chengcheng said with a smile that although she had the body of a child, she had the soul of an adult, and she was not used to being carried on someone's back.
Tian Hengyuan smiled and said, "Fubao is sensible."
The three of them walked along the path. The first part was fine, probably because people passed by frequently. But after two or three miles, there was basically no road. They could only walk in the general direction, as there were potholes everywhere.
After walking about another mile, we saw the cemetery.
The small mounds looked a bit creepy. Tian Hengyuan picked up Tian Chengcheng and said, "Fubao, let your uncle hold you."
Tian Chengcheng felt embarrassed. Although she called Tian Hengyuan "uncle", he was still a seventeen-year-old boy, and because of years of malnutrition, he was extremely thin.
"Uncle, I can go on my own."
"It's okay, you're so light, uncle is not tired at all. Hanhan, keep up." Tian Hengyuan shouted.
However, no one responded.
Tian Chengcheng looked back and the person was gone.
"!" The hairs on her body stood up instantly, "Brother Han, he's gone!"
It’s not that she was afraid of dirty things, but it was so remote in the countryside that she didn’t notice when Fu Xinhan disappeared.
Naughty kid, have you lost me?
Tian Hengyuan was also confused. He turned around quickly, but Fu Xinhan was really gone. "I saw him just now. Where did he go all this time?"
The two of them didn't care about hurrying on their way and hurried back to look for him, shouting as they walked.
After walking for five minutes, I finally heard Fu Xinhan's voice, "I'm here."
Fu Xinhan hurried over from behind them.
"Where have you been?" Tian Chengcheng asked with a frown.
"I heard the sound of the pheasant, so I ran over. I didn't dare to make a sound for fear of scaring the pheasant." Fu Xinhan said as he took off the bamboo basket on his back. Inside was a pheasant tied with straw rope and a few pheasant eggs.
Tian Chengcheng's face remained stern. "Do you have any sense of teamwork? When traveling with friends, the worst thing you can do is have a bad teammate. If you fall behind without a word, don't you know how worried others will be about you?"
"I'm fine. I'm familiar with this area and run here often. I won't get lost." Fu Xinhan said.
"How you run is your business, but if you come out with us and get lost, that's not okay." Tian Chengcheng frowned.
This naughty kid still dares to speak so confidently.
Seeing that she was really angry, Fu Xinhan was a little confused, but he didn't want to make her angry.
"I understand. I won't leave you alone and run around anymore." Fu Xinhan said.
"..." Tian Chengcheng thought about what she had just said. Did it mean that he was disgusted and wanted to abandon her?
"Okay, you're back. It's getting late, let's go." Tian Hengyuan didn't think anything of it.
All the children in the mountain village spend their days wandering around the mountains.
Tian Chengcheng stopped talking.
Seeing that she was unhappy, Fu Xinhan took a pheasant to tease her.
"Fubao, you must have a lucky charm. I go up the mountain almost every day, and in the past few months, I haven't seen a pheasant, let alone a pheasant feather. But when you go up the mountain, you see wild boars and rabbits. I even picked up a pheasant egg the other day, and today you said you encountered a pheasant, and I caught one."
Tian Hengyuan thought about it and realized that it was true. Seeing Tian Chengcheng's angry face, he wanted to tease her.
"Hanhan is right. Fubao is blessed. Whatever you say comes true. Why don't you say something else?"
"No." Tian Chengcheng said.
"Okay, Fubao, if you say no, then you don't." Tian Hengyuan smiled and pinched her puffy little cheeks. "When a child is angry, she won't be pretty, and her good luck will run away. Fubao, smile."
