Time soon came to Wednesday next week, and Gu Mo was driving to Yunshan.

He was wearing headphones in his ears, "We Bao, please pay attention to safety. We are almost there. We will meet at the ticket gate of the ropeway and then act as planned."

"Don't worry, this plan is foolproof."

Gu Mo looked confidently at the mountain road ahead. Yunshan is a relatively remote mountain range in City A. Except for people coming here during holidays, few people go up the mountain on weekdays.

This also makes Yunshan a very good environment. Once you enter the mountain, you feel like you are away from the hustle and bustle of the town and immersed in nature.

The air smelled of vegetation, as if it had just rained last night, and there were still wet spots on the winding mountain road.

Moco's shooting was supposed to be next week, so she moved her plan forward to this week.

Recently, she clearly felt that there was always a looming gaze, and she knew without guessing that it should be the person with the tattoo on his arm.

If it were in the past, she would definitely be shocked, but she is different now. In order to find the truth and get rid of her grievances, she must endure this!

The car quickly arrived at the foot of the mountain. Although Yunshan City has few people, it is still a scenic spot, so from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, you need to take the cableway up the mountain. All cars can only park in the parking lot at the foot of the mountain.

As soon as the car stopped, Xie Xun's phone came in again, "How long do you have, wE treasure? We have to get on the ropeway after we buy the tickets, and the ticket inspector keeps urging us."

"Then you go up first. There was a traffic jam on the road just now. I will be right away."

"Forget it, I'd better ask them to wait for you..."

"No, no, no, I'll be down there. There are so many people on the ropeway, it's impossible to do anything on the ropeway. When you get to the top of the mountain, just pick me up at the platform above."

"Okay, let's go to the station first. This ticket inspector is urging us again. It's so annoying!"

After hanging up the phone, Gu Mo took a deep breath but didn't dare to delay, fearing that the man would really make a move here. He took three steps at a time and then two steps at a time to reach the ropeway ticket purchase window.

After buying a ticket and entering the station, you will reach the top of the mountain, where Xie Xun's people are waiting for her.

She quickly operated on her mobile phone and was about to check the ticket when she heard a quarrel coming from the left.

"Hey, just let me in. My way up the mountain has been blocked. You don't know how I'm going to get back with so many things on my back?"

An old grandfather was carrying a basket and was talking to the ticket inspector.

"Let's go, let's go, I won't let you in without buying a ticket."

"I'm rich, please help me buy a ticket!"

"How can you get enough money with your little money? A ticket costs thirty!"

When the old man heard this, his wrinkled face was suddenly shocked, "Thirty? I can't make so much money selling vegetables for a day."

Gu Mo looked behind the old grandfather and saw a lot of fresh vegetables in the basket. It must be that the residents of the mountain were carrying the vegetables down the mountain to sell.

"I set up a stall at the bottom of the mountain all night and I didn't make so much. Now if I want to go back and have a hot meal, you can be accommodating."

With trembling hands, the old man took out a crumpled ten yuan note from a shabby cloth wallet in his arms, "I only have so much money. I only earned it by selling vegetables for a day."

"If the road up the mountain hadn't been cut off, I wouldn't have come to take this expensive ride."

The old man was a little anxious and quickly explained, "My wife is still sick at home and is waiting for me to go back to get food. You can just do it! I'll give you all the money I have."

"It's not that we won't sell it to you, the ticket price is just that much!"

The conductor explained impatiently.

Gu Mo tilted his head and looked at the old man in front of him and couldn't help but feel sad. He suddenly thought of his mother who once lived in a dilapidated shop. If someone could help her back then, maybe her health wouldn't be so bad now.

"Okay, old man, if you want to buy it, buy it. If you don't want to buy it, don't block our way!"

A tourist wearing a leather jacket stood behind the old man holding a mobile phone.

"Just buy it, we have to go up the mountain to wait and play."

Next to him, a young man wearing a red peaked cap also yelled at the grandfather in a bad tone.

Gu Mo couldn't help it. He rolled his eyes at the two tourists and stepped forward, "I paid for this old man's ticket."

After saying that, she took her mobile phone and scanned the QR code to buy the tickets. Sixty yuan was exchanged for two tickets, and she handed one of them to the old man.

"Grandpa, take the ticket, go home quickly, and take care of yourself."

The old man stretched out his wrinkled hand tremblingly and carefully took the ticket worth thirty yuan, "Thank you, little girl, you are a good person, you will be rewarded for sure."

"Grandpa, you are too polite. Let's go to the ropeway first."

Gu Mo helped the old man get on the ropeway, and the two tourists from before followed.

There is a distance from the foot of Yunshan Mountain to the top of the mountain, and there will be a scenic spot halfway up the mountain, where many people will get off the ropeway.

The ropeway cabin of Yunshan is very large and can accommodate eight people at a time. Everyone stands in the cabin to reach the scenic spot and then go down.

Along the way, the old man kept saying thank you to Gu Mo, which made Gu Mo feel a little embarrassed.

"Girl, how about I give you my basket of vegetables to see if I can offset the thirty yuan?"

As he spoke, the old man pushed the basket in front of Gu Mo, and tremblingly took out the ten yuan in cash, trying to make up for the thirty yuan for the ropeway.

Gu Mo quickly waved his hand, "No, no, grandpa, just take your own flowers. You have worked so hard."

Seeing that Gu Mo rejected the old man, he didn't feel like saying anything more, so he pulled the basket in front of him and accidentally hooked the trousers of the tourist in red hat next to him.

"Hey, can't you, an old man like you, just calm down? Do you know how expensive my pants are?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it."

The old man bent down to apologize in horror, looking very scared.

"Okay, why are you embarrassing an old man?"

Gu Mo glared hard at the red hat tourist.

The ropeway soon reached the halfway point of the mountain. The old man seemed to be preparing to get off the ropeway here. He picked up his backpack and walked slowly down. Gu Mo followed it with his eyes and felt distressed just looking at it.

However, as soon as he reached the door of the ropeway, the old man slipped and fell heavily at the door of the ropeway.

"Ouch", the vegetables in his back pocket were scattered all over the floor. The old man's eyes were full of fear and panic. He didn't care about his injured feet and crawled to pick up the vegetables that rolled on the ground. Gu Mo couldn't stand it anymore. I went to pick it up too.

"Grandpa, don't panic. Check to see if your foot is injured?"

Gu Mo helped pick it up and warned the old man about his injury.

The old man waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'm in good health."

"Hurry up, hurry up! The ropeway will leave soon."

The staff on the ropeway also helped pick up the vegetables and kept urging them.

Tourists wearing leather jackets at the foot of the mountain also complained, "In the future, anyone over 50 years old in your scenic area should not go on this ropeway, as it will cause trouble for tourists like us."

"What do you mean? Don't you have any elderly people at home? You can say this."

While picking up tomatoes, Gu Mo glared angrily at the tourist in leather clothes who was talking.

"Hey, I'm talking about you bitch, how can you..."

The tourists in leather jackets were getting more and more angry, and the staff standing aside saw the situation and blocked the tourists back, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, we'll finish picking it up soon."

The staff threw the last fallen tomato into the old man's basket and urged: "Go quickly, go quickly, the ropeway will open soon."

The old man neatly put the basket on his back, but the moment he stood up, his feet gave out and he knelt down again. He tried several times to no avail.

"Ouch, my legs hurt so much. It hurts so much."

Gu Mo quickly went up to check, maybe it was a fracture?

"I said you old man, get out of here, we are wasting our time!"

"That's right! My good mood for the whole day has been ruined by you, a bad old man!"

"It's so annoying!"

The people on the ropeway were getting more and more excited and complaining one after another. The old man was told that he didn't dare to say anything, and he tried to stand up again, but his left leg kept shaking and he couldn't stand up.

Gu Mo glared at the leather-clad tourist again, turned around quickly, took off the backpack from the old man's back and put it on his back, "Grandpa, let me carry it for you, let's get off the ropeway together!"

"Will the girl be too much trouble for you?"

"It's okay, it's okay, can you still stand up?"

Without the weight of the backpack, the old man stood up slowly with the help of the handrail next to him, and then limped down the ropeway.

Gu Mo weighed the basket on his back. It was really heavy. He didn't know how the old man had carried it on his back before.

"Grandpa, you lead the way, and I'll take you back."

The two of them got off the ropeway. There were not many people watching the scenic spots halfway up the mountain, and there were only a few tourists around.

"Girl, thank you very much for today. I will get you something to eat and drink when you return to my house later. Thank you."

"You are such a good person!"

The old man limped ahead and walked in front. Gu Mo quickly refused, "It's just a trivial matter. You don't need to pay too much attention to it. It's just a matter of effort."

The old man walked in front and took Gu Mo into a very remote forest path.

The further you go, the quieter the sounds of tourists around you become, until you can’t hear anything at all except the chirping of insects and birds in the woods.

"It'll be there soon!"

Then I saw a dilapidated brick house appearing in front of me.

"We're here! Girl here, please help me put the backpack in the small house on the right."

The old man's feet were blocked by his trousers, so he couldn't see the injury clearly. He walked slower and slower.

Gu Mo couldn't bear it and nodded, "Okay, I'll help you take it in."

I pushed open the door of the small house on the far right and looked inside, and I suddenly felt something was wrong.

It stands to reason that the grandfather should have lived here for a long time, but this house looks like it has not been inhabited for a long time.

The walls were covered with moss, the house was covered with weeds, and the roof was so dilapidated that it was leaking.

She put down the basket and turned her head in confusion, "Grandpa, are you sure this is your home?"

"of course not."

A vicious voice came from behind, making his hair stand on end.
