The town is small, but fortunately it has mountains and water. The mountains in the distance are continuous and majestic, like the arms of an immortal locking the town in its arms. The water refers to the nameless river in the north like the town. The river is very shallow and the water flow is warm. Even children don’t have to worry about drowning. Women are even more happy to have such a river. The relatively clear river is very convenient for washing clothes.
The temptation of this river to young people is self-evident. In midsummer, after classes were over from the sweltering school, the boys were stinking of sweat. They screamed and jumped into the river and paddled back and forth several times. After the river water washed away, their 36,000 pores were very cool. Yun Zhong didn't like to get together very much. Compared with groups of people playing in the water to cool off, he still liked the novel experience of lying alone on the river, his body swaying with the current, and his ears immersed in the silence of the water. There is another person with the same temperament as him. Li Dakuai, who is clever but lazy, also enjoys the time of pure ears.
The two often go to the river to play in the river before dinner. It was said that they were playing in the water, but in fact they were just lying in the river and being lazy. I have to say that the two of them were very good at water. They reluctantly fluttered their arms a few times until they were about to sink to the bottom, and then continued to float lazily on the water, quite like A listless mallard duck after giving birth. This portrait initially frightened many women and children who went to the river to wash rice and play. Looking at the two naked people in the river, they all thought they were drowning. After shouting, there was no answer, so they went back to town to deliver the letter in a panic, and gathered a crowd. A large group of people, young and old, picked up the hemp ropes from the poles and rushed to the river without stopping, only to find these two lazy guys sleeping soundly in the river.
It was foreseeable that the two adults were very angry, and they raised headless hoes and bald brooms. The next day when they went to school, their buttocks were swollen, and they felt burning pain when they sat down, so they unanimously asked the teacher to stand.
After climbing up from the river to rest for a while, of course they couldn't go home directly. If they went home so wet, they would definitely get beaten again. So the two of them got dressed and sat on the grass by the river to enjoy the breeze.
"Yun Zhong, what do you want to do in the future? What do you want to do for a living?" Li Dakuai lifted his clothes and scratched his thighs as he spoke.
Yun Zhong picked up a torn reed and didn't bother to talk to him. Instead, he sucked the sweetness from the root of the reed.
"I want to work as a carpenter with my father in the future. With my skills, I may be able to travel far and wide in the future. I am shocked when I mention it." The lean young man patted his chest with protruding ribs, looking extremely heroic.
"Brother Zhen Sanzhen, our area has not been touched for a hundred and eighty years. Who dares to mention that you are not allowed to be arrested by the government and put in prison?" Yun Zhong smiled very meanly.
"That's what it means anyway. What about you?" Lying back, Li Da quickly nuzzled at Yun Zhong, looking more like a wild monkey in the mountains.
"Hey, let's be a hero and play with swords."
"It's quite cheap. Can the hero be used as food?"
"Robbing the rich and giving to the poor. My family is poor, so I keep what I robbed."
"I'm poor too. Remember to share some with me when you get it."
"Can I give you half of it?"
"It works! Why not!"
A few years later, Li Da Kuai became a carpenter who shocked the world, but Yun Zhong did not become a wealthy hero who robbed the rich and helped the poor.
