Going to Qingping Mountain is an important part of Zhang Chi's holiday plan. It originated from Qin Luzhu's active invitation, and he also wanted to ask Qin Luzhu in front of him whether it was a good idea for him to enter the New World School of Management.

Did she have a plan?

There was still no news about Li Yuejin. This man seemed to have suddenly disappeared from the world. Zhang Chi was very worried.

One of the main reasons for going to Qingping Mountain this time was Li Yuejin, hoping to get some news about him from Principal Li of Hongxing Primary School.

After meeting Xiaowen, Zhang Chi has decided not to deliberately meet with her in the future, including his master Huang Chunli. Even if they encounter any trouble, he will still show up as soon as possible without hesitation, but this does not mean that he

You should appear frequently in their lives, and if you are truly good to a person, you should not interfere with the other person's peaceful life.

Zhang Chi arrived at the exit of Chenghai Railway Station and saw Qin Luzhu waiting for him there.

Qin Luzhu was darker than the last time she saw her, and she had a bun. She was standing lazily in the sun, half leaning and half leaning on her motorcycle, with one long leg half bent and one stretched out.

Very straight. Immortal Zhang was only envious of her long legs. Anyway, he still couldn't catch up.

When Qin Luzhu saw him, she didn't show any joy at seeing him again after a long absence, and waved to him. She was still looking carefree in a black bottoming shirt, a khaki jacket, graphite blue slim jeans, and a pair of brown hiking boots on her feet.

A slovenly look.

Zhang Chi had no luggage and only brought a backpack. He came to Qin Luzhu and said, "Hello, Principal Qin!" He opened his arms in a hug gesture.

Qin Luzhu looked at him with disgust: "Stand still, you look like a gangster. You learned this skill in Shuimu and came back?"

Zhang Chi said with a smile: "I thought you couldn't recognize me." Although he has become taller and more handsome, why did Qin Luzhu still recognize him at a glance?

Qin Luzhu said: "You are a bit taller, but your wretched temperament still makes you a mudslide in the crowd." She stood up and compared with Zhang Chi.

Zhang Chi was very depressed to find that he was still a little shorter than her, and Qin Luzhu's hiking boots had heels.

Zhang Chi said: "Principal Qin, are you here specially to pick me up?"

"You're so beautiful. I'm here to maintain the motorcycle and pick you up by the way." Qin Luzhu's voice was not loud, but Zhang Chi heard it clearly.

Qin Luzhu got on the motorcycle, took off a helmet and threw it to him. Zhang Chi caught it and put the helmet on. He came and sat down behind Qin Luzhu, holding his hands firmly on the luggage rack behind.

Principal Qin's slender waist cannot be touched casually. A man's head and a woman's waist can be seen but not moved.

Qin Luzhu started the motorcycle and put on her helmet. She usually didn't like wearing a helmet, but the traffic police in Chenghai were stricter, so she didn't want to cause trouble.

Qin Luzhu's driving style became more and more wild, and now she was very familiar with this road. She returned to Sifangping in less than an hour and a half.

Before entering Hongxing Primary School, Qin Luzhu warned Zhang Chi not to call her Principal Qin again. The old principal Li Aiguo was back and she was the real principal of the school.

The old principal didn't know that Zhang Chi would come, and Qin Luzhu hadn't sent him a letter before. It was a surprise to see Zhang Chi.

Taking advantage of Qin Luzhu's absence, the old principal started to pour out his bitterness. Even though Qin Luzhu had only been here for a short time, he had caused a lot of trouble for him. After the old principal returned to school, he had been criticized by many local people.

Although the complaints from the citizens did not have many issues of principle, they were enough for the old principal to have a headache, and he had to pay a lot of compensation for her.

The old principal also couldn't listen to the mountain people's words. After observing and getting along with him for nearly two weeks after returning, he found that even he couldn't understand many of Qin Luzhu's practices.

The old principal is not someone who talks behind people's backs, and he has nothing to say. Zhang Chi is Qin Luzhu's friend. He wants to know Qin Luzhu's true attitude through Zhang Chi, but the old principal is very concerned about Qin Luzhu's teaching.

Still yes, he is serious about his work and can endure hardships, but his temper is not good.

Qin Luzhu knocked on the door and came in, saying to Zhang Chi: "Zhang Chi, you are just hiding here and being lazy, hurry up and cook."

The old principal couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Xiao Zhang is an honored guest, I'll go."

Zhang Chi said with a smile: "Principal, you should rest. I'll go. Teacher Qin likes to eat the food I cook."

Following Qin Luzhu towards the kitchen, Qin Luzhu turned around, looked behind him, and lowered his voice and said, "Did Principal Li say something bad about me?"

"The heart of a villain measures the heart of a gentleman."

Qin Luzhu chuckled. They went to the kitchen and saw a rustic uncle working there, but he was Principal Li's male nanny. It turned out that Principal Li fell ill this time when he returned to the provincial capital, and his children

They didn't want him to come back, but the old principal insisted on coming. The children couldn't resist him, so they discussed a compromise and hired an acquaintance in the local area to take care of Principal Li.

This uncle's surname is also Li, his name is Li Hongsheng. He worked as a barefoot doctor when he was young. He knows some medical skills, but he has no certificate. He usually works here as a handyman and cooks, and his salary is paid by Principal Li's children.

From this, it seems that Principal Li’s children are also very filial.

Qin Luzhu disliked this uncle very much, thinking that he was clumsy and not good at cooking. In fact, he was not here to take care of her.

Zhang Chi gave Li Hongsheng a cigarette and asked him to rest. He took the initiative to take over the kitchen work and washed the freshly killed rooster. After all, Li Hongsheng was a local mountaineer and was obviously not particular about hygiene.

Qin Luzhu went outside to wash the dishes. When he came back, he saw that Zhang Chi had stewed the chicken and had finished processing several fish. When he saw the box of cigarettes on the stove, Qin Luzhu walked over and took out a cigarette.

superior.

Zhang Chi said: "Didn't you quit smoking?"

Qin Luzhu sighed and said: "It's suffocating me. I've been facing two old men all day recently. One is like a lump of wood and can't be beaten with three sticks. The other one smiles at me all day, but in his heart

But they are thinking about how to drive me away."

Zhang Chi laughed. He really couldn't figure it out. Is Qin Luzhu just sitting around with nothing to do and not returning to the prosperous capital city? Why is he staying in this valley? Everyone in the old Qin family is not a simple person, and none of them are very ordinary.

Normally, Zhang Chi remembered that she came to him on her own initiative, and asked: "Is there something urgent about why you came to me?"

Qin Luzhu said: "There's nothing urgent, I just want you to accompany me to Lingxi Peak."

Zhang Chi was relieved when he heard that it was Lingxi Peak and not Canglong Ridge One-horned Peak. He had been to Lingxi Peak once, when he and Li Yuejin were looking for immortal grass. Qin Luzhu had stayed here for so long. With her

If you are not so temperamental that you have never climbed Lingxi Peak, why should you wait for me to climb together? I guess you have other ideas.

Thinking of being admitted to the New World School of Management, Mr. Qin had explained to him before that someone had handed the school some dirty information about him. Because of the influence of his grandfather Zhang Qingshui, he almost didn't cross the threshold of Shuimu.

If it weren't for Qin Luzhu's help, there would be no way for him to successfully enter the New World School of Management.

Qin Luzhu took a puff of cigarette and blew out a cloud of smoke and said: "I recommended New World School of Management for you without your permission. You won't blame me, right?"

Zhang Chi smiled and said, "It's too late for me to thank you."

Qin Luzhu said: "I don't ask you to thank me, I just ask you not to blame me."

Zhang Chi said: "How is that possible?" When I came back this time and saw Qin Luzhu, I felt that she was not as open and honest as before, and there seemed to be some barriers.

Qin Luzhu chuckled, winked at Zhang Chi and said, "We don't need to discuss this issue? I just want to ask you one thing, have you met Bai Xiaomi at Lingxi Peak?"

Zhang Chi nodded, already understanding Qin Luzhu's true intention of asking him to come over. He once told Mr. Qin about Bai Xiaomi, and Mr. Qin was also very concerned about it at the time. It seems that he has told Qin Luzhu about it.

bamboo.

Combining the two, Zhang Chi vaguely felt that Qin Luzhu's presence here to teach might have a lot to do with Bai Xiaomi.

Zhang Chi said: "I remember the route up the mountain, but Bai Xiaomi may not still be here."

Qin Luzhu said: "You only need to take me to the place where you met her."

"good!"

Zhang Chi stayed at Hongxing Primary School that night. Principal Li said that the Education Bureau had expressed its stance on the current situation of Hongxing Primary School and was preparing to allocate a support fund to Hongxing Primary School and would also solve the problem of teacher shortage in the near future.

Zhang Chi also heard the implication of the old principal's words. The difficulties of Hongxing Primary School will soon be solved, and Qin Luzhu, the supporting teacher, will be insignificant. In short, Qin Luzhu is not welcome here.

Of course Qin Luzhu could understand, but she just smiled disapprovingly: "Principal Li, Zhang Chi and I will go out tomorrow and won't be back for the next few days, so don't cook for us."

The old principal was stunned for a moment: "Going out?" Then he nodded and said: "Yes, there is nothing interesting in these poor mountains and valleys. You can go, it's a holiday anyway."

Qin Luzhu ate something casually, then got up and went to the big tree, sat on the stone roller and lit a cigarette.

The old principal watched from a distance, shook his head, and sighed: "Look, look, a people's teacher or a girl actually smokes."

Li Hongsheng nodded in agreement.

Zhang Chi knew about Qin Luzhu's smoking. He smiled and said, "She also smokes in front of the students?"

The old principal was stunned for a moment when asked, "Is that true?"

Zhang Chi could sense Qin Luzhu's current embarrassing situation. With her unique personality, she would naturally not take the opinions of outsiders seriously.

Sifangping is relatively closed, and the mountain people here are traditional and conservative. Qin Luzhu has too many deviant elements. Although she is a woman, her body is full of edges and corners, and she is sharp in her work.

After thinking about it, Qin Luzhu is indeed qualified to go her own way. Her origin and background determine that she does not have to give in when dealing with the relationships around her, and she is different from her.

Before dawn arrived, Zhang Chi and Qin Luzhu were already on their way to Lingxi Peak. Zhang Chi still remembered the way Li Yuejin took him here last time, and guided Qin Luzhu to the small parking lot at the foot of the mountain.

I haven't been here for a while, but I didn't expect that a sign was erected in the temporary parking lot on the red soil, saying that temporary parking is 10 yuan for large cars and 5 yuan for small cars.

An old man with a white beard has been standing there waiting to collect money for a long time. There are actually three cars in the parking lot. Recently, CCTV reported on tourism in Qingping Mountain, and then the popularity of the place suddenly increased. Although the back mountain

Although it is closed, many camping enthusiasts still come here, so the local people naturally see the business opportunities in the parking lot.

The old man was quite honest and asked them for two yuan. Qin Luzhu directly gave him twenty yuan and asked him to help wash the motorcycle in his free time.

When they started climbing the mountain, it was already daylight, and the old man came over again and asked them if they wanted a guide. Qin Luzhu declined his offer and started to advance along the path towards Lingxi Peak.

Although it was early October, the morning in the mountain was already a bit cold. Zhang Chi still did not wear professional mountaineering clothes, but he put on a pair of Li Ning hiking shoes. Although Lingxi Peak is the highest peak of Qingping Mountain, in terms of the difficulty of climbing, it is difficult to climb.

It's several levels worse than Monogon Peak.

Qin Luzhu asked about Zhang Chi's school on the way. Zhang Chi briefly explained that because the school had regulations, he didn't mention anything about special abilities. He believed that Qin Luzhu must know about New World School of Management, even better than

He knew more inside information. Since Qin Luzhu didn't mention it, he didn't take the initiative to say it. Although he didn't care about the confidentiality agreement, since he signed it, he should abide by it.

At noon, they took a short rest halfway up the mountain. Zhang Chi recognized the surrounding terrain and recognized the place where he and Li Yuejin separated last time. He pointed to the front and said: "I rolled down the hillside in front of me.

Going down."

When Qin Luzhu heard him describe the details, she couldn't help laughing. She went ahead to explore the path first, and after walking a few steps, Zhang Chi followed.
