1. A boy who lives in the mountains

Early in the morning, Xiao Zhang rode a modified three-wheeled electric courier vehicle, driving slowly on the bumpy rural roads.

On his second day at work, he was entrusted with the important task of taking charge of a small mountain village near Qing'ao. Xiao Zhang resisted in his heart, but who told him that he was a newcomer and was so poor that he could only eat instant noodles? In order to survive, Xiao Zhang silently loaded up a dozen packages from five small villages in Qing'ao, left Qingyang Town, and rode into the mountains in the morning light.

It was a new arrival and he was completely unfamiliar with the roads. Xiao Zhang opened the navigation on his mobile phone and successfully delivered five packages. The express truck stopped in front of a rapeseed field at the foot of Qing'ao Mountain and looked around in confusion.

"Dari Mountain Villa? Are you sure it's here?" He called with his mobile phone and heard the prompt tone that the other party was not in the service area again. He clicked on the Amap map again and kept searching, but still found nothing. "...Dari Mountain Villa in Yinjia Village, Qing'ao...well..."

He touched his chin and frowned.

There were only about twenty households in the entire Yinjia Village. He searched all over, but he didn't see any house with the sign of "Dari Mountain Villa". Since it's called a villa, there should be a landmark building, but why isn't there?

"Did you write the wrong address?" He scratched his head and said to himself, "It seems like I need to find a local to ask."

Just as he was thinking about it, an old man with a bamboo stick on his back walked forward. He had white hair and a long white beard. His back was slightly bowed, but his steps were steady.

Xiao Zhang got off the electric car, waited for the old man to approach, and said politely: "Uncle, may I ask how to get to Da Ri Mountain Villa?"

Although the old man was old, he had a good ear. When he heard the question, he raised his drooped eyelids to look at the young man, smoothed his beard and shook his head. "Young man, are you going to Da Ri Villa?"

"Yes, yes, I am a courier, and I want to deliver a package to Mr. Yi from Da Ri Villa. However, I searched in Yinjia Village for twenty minutes and could not see Da Ri Villa." Xiao Zhang said helplessly.

The old man smiled and said: "If you look for it at the bottom of the mountain, of course you can't find it. In this way, old man, I happen to be going to Da Ri Villa, so I will take you there by the way."

Xiao Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully: "Thank you, uncle."

The old man glanced at his electric car and waved his hand. "Just park your car on the side of the road and pick up the package."

Xiao Zhang hesitated. "this......"

The old man pointed to the telephone pole on the roadside. "Did you see that there are surveillance cameras up there? Since this little thing was installed years ago, there have been no thieves in the village."

Xiao Zhang blushed, took out a small square package from the carriage, stuffed it into his backpack, carefully locked the car and carriage, and hurriedly followed the old man.

The old man took him into the rapeseed field and walked on a muddy field road towards Qing'ao Mountain.

Xiao Zhang walked carefully until they stepped on the stone steps up the mountain. He looked up at the mountain thousands of meters above sea level and couldn't help but ask: "Uncle, Da Ri Villa...is on the mountain?"

When the old man in front heard this, he turned back and said matter-of-factly: "Yes, it's on the mountain. How is your strength, young man?"

Xiao Zhang replied blankly: "It's not bad, I often run."
