The hill is not high. It is only seven or eight meters away from the road below. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small slope. The hill is extremely long and slowly extends higher. At the farthest point, it seems to be connected to Cuiping Mountain. "The Peak"
.3.o
In other words, the asphalt road in front of you, which is less than two kilometers long and connects the Daodejiang section of Province 301 and the middle Shu section of National Highway 201, is actually a highway through the mountains.
There are hills on both sides of the road. The hill on the other side where Qiu Yuejin is standing is, to be precise, more like a barrier lake. A few dozen meters in, it is a barrier lake covering an area of hundreds of acres formed by the converging branches of the Minjiang River into the bay.
lake.
The lake is not wide, but it is extremely deep. Even a man who is good at swimming cannot reach the bottom.
There are many mountains in the middle of Sichuan, and it is not easy to open up fields. If there is water, there will naturally be fields. Therefore, many terraces have been carved up and down along the hills, all relying on this lake for irrigation.
The deep lake is in the air and hangs on the edge of the road. It's not like no one has pointed out the dangers involved.
After all, if there is a continuous cloudy period, the rain surges, and the lake is overflowing, it is very likely to pour down.
It’s just that this road is too important. It is an important hub connecting two main roads. The Minjiang River is so majestic that manpower must be used to force the river to change its course. Unless the province has the determination and courage like the country to build the Three Gorges Dam and spend huge amounts of manpower.
, material resources, to do this is pure fantasy.
Regardless of the reason, this dangerous barrier lake continues to exist. For decades, no danger has occurred. Instead, it irrigates the terraced fields under the hillock year after year. As time goes by, people remember this lake.
It's moist, but there's no harm at all.
Obviously, Qiu Yanai saw the secret and had an idea.
It was late autumn and the weather was getting colder. Qiu Yamen was wrapped in a thick military coat and stuck in the wind vent. His face was still green and teeth were trembling from the cold. His hands were stuck in his pockets and he almost curled up into a ball.
This is the third time Qiu Yanei has come here to stand and look out. The first two times he came and returned in a hurry under the cover of night, as if he was afraid of being discovered by others.
But this time, he stayed for an extra long time. He was covered up very tightly, wearing a military coat and an otter skin hat. He looked like a hunter about to enter the old forests of the Northeast in the cold winter months.
Yes. This is so worthy of Qiu Yameni's greatest attention. Sherlock Holmes has almost turned over the pages. There is no useful method, but it is the old saying, it is better to read ten thousand books than to travel ten thousand miles. At the last critical moment,
played the most important role.
After checking the geographical map, Qiu Yuejin finally caught a glimpse of his last hope here.
After considering the whole situation three times, Qiu Yamen asked himself whether he had made a complete plan. When a small red flag suddenly erected over the hill and waved twice, Qiu Yamen felt a heat in his heart for no reason, which made his whole body boiling hot, along with the mountain-skimming flag.
The coming cold wind also became a thing of the past.
Suddenly, Qiu Yanei straightened his body and said silently in his heart, "There is no need to bury the bones in a mulberry land. This is the end of life! Go well, Xue Xiang!"
……………………
Plum Garden, Anfu Hall.
This is a newly built large tile-roofed house, located at the east end of the Qushui River in Raotian.
The sun is most abundant here every day, so for old people who are afraid of the cold, this is an excellent place to spend the winter.
In the afternoon, after finishing his simple lunch, the old chief leaned on the wicker chair that the guards had set up long ago and took a nap.
Rattan chairs were placed beside several clumps of wicker sticks, and the warm sun filtered through the gaps in the wicker sticks, ensuring the temperature without being too scorching.
The wicker chairs are covered with thick wool cushions and covered with a soft lynx fur coat. They are light and lightweight, breathable and warm, and are most suitable for the elderly to take a lunch break.
Originally, after lunch every day, the old leader would take a few steps, lie down on this wicker chair, and fall asleep quickly.
However, that day was very strange. After eating, the old man walked around the house five times, but he didn't feel sleepy at all.
I forced myself to lie down on the wicker chair. I thought I would fall asleep as soon as I lay down, but I never thought that the more I lay down, the more complex things would become in my mind, and I felt a little anxious.
This feeling makes the old man very strange.
Yes, there is nothing new in this world for him, and nothing else that he has not experienced before.
No matter how difficult it is, the old man has overcome it. Even in the most difficult times, the old man is calm and calm, talking and laughing.
This inexplicable anxiety this time really made the old man curious.
Just as the old man was about to get up, he heard noises coming from the gravel road along the stream on the left, among which the voices of the southern comrades were the loudest.
"Uncle Wu, Uncle Shi, Uncle Feng, Uncle Wei, as well as Brother Geyang and Brother Pengcheng. If you have anything to do, you have to come to my father now. He is resting... If you don't believe it, you guys, look, the old man doesn't
Are you sleeping under the tree over there... According to me, if anything happens, you guys can make up your mind. The old man has hid in the plum garden. He is not just for peace. Why are you asking for such a small thing?
Some of you are not satisfied either!"
The southern comrades talk about complaints, but they are not slow at all.
He was getting addicted to the one-man show when the old leader suddenly sat up and said, "Comrade from the South, don't be yin and yang. With your acting skills, you really can't get on the stage. If you like acting, okay, you can do it tomorrow.
Work at the National Theater or Bayi Film Studio."
As he said that, the old man lifted up the soft fur coat hanging on his body and walked towards the crowd.
His words made the southern comrades hurriedly hide behind others.
"Lao Nan, please don't say that to Xiao Fang. It's your fault. If you hadn't been so lazy back then, you wouldn't be doing these things now. We should discuss things that need to be discussed and come up with a result. Otherwise, people's hearts will not be settled.
…”
Mr. Wu happily answered the question.
"It's hard to control people's hearts. I think it's unfounded worries. How big of a thing can make things clear? I'll emphasize it again. I have one opinion. I don't demand full blame for certain comrades who have always performed well and worked hard without complaint. The party and the people
Our career, as well as the future successor force, still need the protection of such comrades. Let’s just discuss it. No matter what the outcome of the discussion is, I will obey the organization’s decision!”
The old man's tone was not very good.
Indeed, in the past few days, he was really troubled by the troubles caused by the National Day ceremony that day.
Today, even the old man himself has to admit that his original decision may have been abrupt.
In the eyes of some people, a routine incident turned out to be a signal of inheritance, and there was no reason for such a big commotion.
Usually, after the old man expresses his position so clearly, it is basically the final word.
However, this time, the old man's words seemed to suddenly ignite the topic, and the discussion continued.
Just when the debate was about to get heated, the roar of an engine suddenly came from not far away.
At this time, everyone stopped arguing and looked towards the sound with surprise.
Indeed, it is not surprising to hear the sound of engines in other places, but this is Meiyuan, how can cars be allowed to drive in here?
After seeing the license plate clearly, everyone became more curious.
Not long after, the car was approaching and Comrade Guoguang almost rushed down. Before he could stand still, he uttered earth-shattering news.
Xue Xiang is dead!
As soon as he said this, he dropped a huge bomb into the field.
Even though everyone in the room had experienced many vicissitudes of life and had experienced ups and downs, they were all shocked by the news.
The old leader's body swayed obviously. If the southern comrades hadn't seen the opportunity quickly and rushed over to help the old man, I don't know what kind of accident would have happened.
Speaking of it, Xue Xiang is just a nobody. At least from the perspective of the audience, he is just a nobody. Even though he is young and talented. There are elders who promise him that he is handsome in the party and unparalleled in the country. At this level, it is nothing.
Moreover, all of you in the field are warriors who have rushed out from some kind of cannonballs and bloody fire in the hail of bullets. You have never seen any battles. How could you act like this because of the death of a young man?
The reason is that everyone has their own thoughts and vibrations. In short, there are no more than three categories.
One of them is like the old chief who deplores his talents. I am afraid only they know how capable Xue Laosan is. Not to mention that Xue Laosan has made great achievements in revitalizing the economy of each place when he performs his duties.
, the revitalization of a country’s economy is not a big deal at the national level.
The key is that he created it and can copy it. The greenhouse vegetables and hope feed in Shantun are almost a new industry. The most remarkable thing is the first trial implementation of the rural contract responsibility system, which can be said to have completely solved the problem of high-level officials.
After endless debates, it eventually became a new agricultural model promoted across the country.
Of course, what the old chief values most is his achievements in theory. If he can do economics, he can at most be a local chief. After all, the higher he reaches the top, the more he needs to have an overall view, and this overall view rises to the end and forms a theory.
, has become an indispensable political wisdom for solving major problems.
Many cadres lack this kind of overall view and theoretical literacy. There is no doubt that the Xue family boy is an expert in this field.
There are great discussions on truth, the debate on capital and society, the essence of socialism, and one country, two systems. Whenever the critical moment comes, the Xue family's boy always emerges.
Such talented people, the old leader secretly believed that they were a gift from God.
The great honor given to him since he was a child was when he climbed the stairs a few days ago. In full view of everyone, the old chief did not say much to anyone, but only joked a few words with the boy from the Xue family. This is a manifestation of his importance.
But now, this talented person who made great achievements has gone with the wind without any warning, which is simply unbelievable to the old man!
The other two are the old men who obviously have conflicts with the Xue family boys. Their moods are complicated. On the one hand, like the old chief, they deplore the country's loss of talents, but on the other hand, they have something else in their hearts.
taste.
The third one is completely involved in Xue Xiang's death itself. Was it an accident or was it planned for a long time? Is it possible that there will be another shocking case?
Soon, the sad ones, the troubled ones... everyone's attention was directed back to the starting point of the question, Xue Xiang's death!
Is it a conspiracy? Or an accident?
After a moment of thought, everyone's thoughts unconsciously gravitated toward the latter. (To be continued...)
