There are traces of the galaxy

When Lin Chaosheng woke up the next day, it was already dawn outside, the window was half open, and he could faintly hear insects and birds in the forest.He has always recognized the bed, and because he has tall legs and can't stretch out, the night he slept on the sofa was quite torturous. Not to mention his backache, his mind was still dizzy when he sat up, as if he was about to catch a cold. , It may be that the temperature difference between day and night in the mountains is too large.

On the table was a pile of fresh green bamboo, still dripping with dew, neatly cut to about an arm's length.Lin Chaosheng looked at his fully charged mobile phone again, it was [-]:[-].

Li Zhi is still sleeping in the house? Lin Chaosheng turned his head and looked at the closed bedroom door behind him.He heard a slight sound of walking in his sleep last night. It should be early in the morning at that time, so he needs to catch up on sleep.

Walking into the bathroom, he saw a razor that had just been unpacked on the sink. Lin Chaosheng looked in the mirror. The stubble hadn't come out yet, so he didn't need to shave it, but Li Zhi could take care of it, which was very considerate .

The fog in the mountains in the early morning has not cleared away, and the surrounding area is green, filled with wet water vapor, mixed with the fresh fragrance of plants, which smells particularly good.When Lin Chaosheng opened the door, he noticed a person squatting in the yard, holding a knife in his hand. Lin Chaosheng had only seen this kind of knife on TV. It had a strange shape, and it seemed to be a hatchet specially used for chopping wood.

There are a lot of bamboos in different lengths on the ground.Li Zhi looked up at him, pointed to the cut bamboo tube at his feet, and dispatched the ready-made labor without any hesitation: "Are you awake? Help me carry these to the stove."

"Okay." Lin Chaosheng responded.

When he came out of the house again, he happened to see Li Zhi holding a machete in one hand and pressing the bamboo on the ground with the other. Look comfortable.

He approached and asked, "What is this for?"

"I'll make bamboo rice later."

"Do you want to try?" Li Zhi smiled and shook the knife in his hand at Lin Chaosheng.

It was too dark last night, and after Lin Chaosheng arrived at Li Zhi's house, he was so tired that he didn't pay much attention to what this person looked like.Based on his first impression, Lin Chaosheng had a vague outline in his mind: he was half a head shorter than himself, with dark skin, and he should look fierce.Only now did I realize that it was completely different from what I imagined...

The person in front of him does not fit the stereotype of a person who has lived in the mountains all year round. His skin is not tanned by the wind and sun, but rather fair. He seems to be about the same age as himself, with mild eyebrows and eyes, and the corners of his mouth He was smiling, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, and it was a little perfunctory, but the two small canine teeth that were exposed somewhat diluted the carelessness.

Lin Chaosheng was stunned for a few seconds before recovering, and took the hatchet from Li Zhi.

His fingers lightly brushed Li Zhi's palm, touching a little warmth.

Lin Chaosheng weighed the hatchet in his hand, it was heavier than expected.When I saw Li Zhi swinging the hatchet with ease, I thought it was very light.

Lin Chaosheng imitated Li Zhi's example in chopping bamboo, but the strength and angle were not easy to control.The first stroke was a bit weak, and the bamboo was not completely split.The second time, the bamboo was cut into two pieces, but it was cut crookedly.It looks very simple, how can the hand have its own thoughts when chopping?

"It's like this for the first time chopping bamboo. It's normal. Just try it out. Let me do it." Li Zhi reached out and took the hatchet in his hand.

"Okay." Lin Chaosheng frowned slightly, staring at the hatchet rather unwillingly, "...then how can I help?"

Li Zhi saw that he wanted to continue to compete, and smiled, "Can you wash rice?"

Lin Chaosheng: "Yes..." But this is not too technically difficult.

"There is soaked glutinous rice in the kitchen, put it in the water and scoop it up, and scoop it up a few times until the water dries up," Li Zhi said.

Lin Chaosheng occasionally cooks at home. Although the dishes he cooks are not satisfactory, he still knows how to wash rice.

He scooped up half a bowl of glutinous rice carefully and poured it into the rice washing machine. After receiving the water, he scooped it up for a long time, and didn't stop until he was satisfied.

On the other side, Li Zhi had already washed the bamboo tube, cut the meat, carrots, and shiitake mushrooms into cubes, and added some seasonings to taste.

Lin Chaosheng glanced at him, "Salty?"

Li Zhi looked back: "You don't eat salty food?" His face was indifferent, but his black and white eyes seemed to say: Don't eat it.

Lin Chaosheng felt that this was a calm threat, and subconsciously said: "...Eat, because I have never eaten salty food before."

"Give me another hand."

The two set up the barbecue grill in the courtyard in twos and threes, and lit the fire. The dry wood inside began to burn quickly, and the smoke rose and spread out in circles. Lin Chaosheng was almost choked by the smoke, so he took two steps back and stood a little further away. .

The aromas of glutinous rice, bamboo and meat blend together to make it extra alluring.

"Is it delicious?" Li Zhi sat opposite him, with a smile in his eyes, propping his chin and waiting for his comment.

"Delicious, this is the best bamboo rice I have ever eaten."

Lin Chaosheng's words were not exaggerating, this was better than the bamboo rice that he had eaten before.Maybe he was too hungry, or maybe he was a part of it.In short, this bamboo tube meal subdued his stomach.

At this time, there was a sound outside the gate, and a tall man in gray winter clothes opened the door, and a gust of damp wind came in.He bent down to change his shoes, "I'm back." His voice was thick and full of energy.

"Old Li, hurry up and eat after washing your hands." Li Zhi greeted without raising his head.

Lin Chaosheng realized that this was Li Zhi's father, pushed away the chair and stood up, "Hello, Uncle."

"Hey, hello, sit down, you eat yours, don't worry about me."

So Lin Chaosheng sat down again, while Li Zhi on the opposite side was still eating by himself, without even lifting his eyelids.

Li Wenjin sat down next to Lin Chaosheng and looked at Li Zhi: "Is this the kid you mentioned?"

"How can I say I'm a child?" Li Zhi raised his eyes and glared at Li Wenjin.What he told Li Wenjin last night was that a lost child had come to the house, but now he was embarrassed to say it in front of others, after all, this child was half a head taller than himself.

"All right, big friend, let's go."

Li Wenjin served as a soldier in the Northeast when he was young, and was assigned to the Forestry Bureau after changing jobs, and then came to Linchuan Mountain to become a mountain patroller. It has been more than ten years now.

Patroling on rugged mountain roads for eight hours a day and walking tens of thousands of steps is Li Wenjin's daily work.If it is a large-scale tourist attraction, there are often as many as dozens of night rangers patrolling the mountain at night every night, but there are only four or five rangers in Linchuan Mountain, and the work intensity is very high.In the early years, this place was undeveloped and inaccessible. The most important thing for Li Wenjin and others to patrol was to prevent and eliminate fire hazards and prevent loggers from coming to the forest farm to steal timber.In recent years, the management of the Forestry Bureau has been strengthened, law enforcement has become stronger, and there have been fewer loggers. Therefore, helping tourists and maintaining order have become the primary tasks of mountain rangers.

Li Wenjin and Li Zhi met on the mountainside in the middle of the night last night. Li Wenjin was worried that there were still people stranded on the mountain and wanted to make another round of inspection, so she drove Li Zhi back home.

Many mountain rangers have had accidents in the deep mountains these years. Although Li Wenjin has been in Linchuan Mountain for more than ten years, Li Zhi still can't let go. He knows his father's stubbornness, and there is nothing he can do about it. Can sulk.

"How old is Xiao Lin?" Li Wenjin took two bites of rice, then looked at Lin Chaosheng again, and asked him loudly.

Li Wenjin has an extremely sharp face like a knife-cut, resolute and stern, with dark skin and bright eyes, which looks inhumane and intimidating to outsiders.

Lin Chaosheng replied: "Eighteen."

"Haha, isn't that just a kid, isn't it Xiaozhi?" Li Wenjin laughed and looked at Li Zhi again.

Li Zhi's appearance is somewhat similar to Li Wenjin's, but much softer in comparison.

"It's okay." Li Zhiting smiled perfunctorily.

Li Wenjin ate the last bit of rice on the plate in two or three bites, stretched, and pushed the plate towards Li Zhi.

Li Zhi got used to it, put down his chopsticks and stood up, the chair was dragged back, making an ear-piercing sound, he lowered his head, put together a few diabolo tubes on the table, and said flatly: "Not a few years younger. "

Seeing that Li Zhi didn't eat, Lin Chaosheng wondered, he didn't seem to move his chopsticks a few times, so he was full?So Lin Chaosheng was too embarrassed to eat too much, so he stood up and wanted to help him clean up.

Li Zhi raised his head and glanced at him in surprise, "I can do it myself."

"Let Xiaozhi clean up." Li Wenjin also echoed.

"By the way, Xiao Lin, when are you leaving?" Li Wenjin asked again.He was careless in his dealings with people, and it sounded like he was driving away customers.

Li Zhi was used to listening to his father talking like this, so he added a sentence for him: "The road outside is too slippery, don't rush to go."

"Yes, yes, it's too dangerous," Li Wenjin said, "I almost slipped and fell down the mountain several times last night."

"You also know the danger?" With a bang, Li Zhi threw the empty bamboo tube into the trash can, glared at him angrily, and finally found an outlet for the emotions that had been suppressed all night.

Li Wenjin laughed, "Look at what you said, if there are still people stranded on the mountain in rainy days, wouldn't that be more dangerous?"

"It's too dangerous, can you manage it? Why don't you go to Syria for peacekeeping?" Li Zhiren couldn't help but choke with him after he entered the kitchen with the dishes and chopsticks.

"I think so." Li Wenjin was still cheerful, "What's wrong with you today, did you take gunpowder again?"

Lin Chaosheng sat upright on the sofa, a little worried that the two of them would quarrel, and it would be embarrassing for him to be here alone, but he felt relieved after listening to it. It sounded very tense, but in fact it was only Li Knowing that I am not angry, this fight should not be resolved.

Seeing Lin Chaosheng's serious expression, Li Wenjin guessed what he was thinking, and smiled at him, trying to look amiable.He chatted with Lin Chaosheng. Xiaozhi had a dull personality. He didn't like talking or exercising. He could stay in the room alone for a day.The words seemed to reveal dissatisfaction, but they were actually full of connivance.

boring?It seems not.Lin Chaosheng happened to catch a glimpse of Li Zhi poking his head out in the kitchen from the corner of his eye. Hearing this, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, he silently rolled his eyes and turned back.

Lin Chaosheng suddenly wanted to laugh. He knew nothing about Li Zhi, so he forcibly praised his firewood chopping skills.

"I'm usually lazy and don't move much, so I just work hard today," Li Wenjin laughed, and said, "Xiao Lin, don't leave today? I read the weather forecast and said it will still rain today."

"There's still rain..." Lin Chaosheng originally planned to leave before noon, but now he hesitated.

"Maybe it won't rain again. When will the weather forecast be correct?" Li Zhi came out of the kitchen with a calm tone, as if he was stating the facts, but he still seemed to be deliberately confronting his father.

"..." Lin Chaosheng quickly changed the topic, "Wait a little longer, if it rains at noon, I won't leave."

"Okay, then you play, I'll go back to my room to catch up on sleep," Li Wenjin stood up, "Little Zhi, take him to your room to play."

Why did he really treat him like a child, Lin Chaosheng said helplessly, "I'm causing you trouble."

"Hey, no trouble." Li Wenjin waved her hands and went back to the room to catch up on sleep.
