It's getting late, it's not dawn

"sit down"

The white-bearded old man walked to the coffee table, picked up the steaming teapot, and slowly poured the tea into two teacups. In an instant, the room was filled with an attractive tea fragrance.

After pouring the tea, the old man handed one of the cups to Su Shangqiu. Su Shangqiu took the cup and put it to his mouth to take a sip.

“Good tea!”

Su Shangqiu praised, and after he finished speaking, he licked his lips and took another sip. The sweet taste melted in his mouth, and it seemed that the heat hidden in his body was also taken away by three points.

Hearing Su Shangqiu's admiration, the old man immediately burst into a smile, and said proudly: "That's right, this is our unique camellia, and it's not easy to drink it."

Su Shangqiu took another sip of tea, and finally got down to business.

"Old man, have you really never seen my friend?"

The old man also took a sip of tea, clicked his lips, and asked, "What does your friend look like?"

Su Shangqiu immediately took out his mobile phone, called out the group photo he and his colleagues took when they went out to Sutuo, then pointed to one of the thinner people and said, "Uncle, look, this is my missing friend. "

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Su Shangqiu's phone screen, then shook his head and said, "I've never seen this young man before, how did he disappear?"

Su Shangqiu told him what happened before. The old man didn't seem surprised. After hearing this, he just thought quietly and couldn't explain why. Su Shangqiu had to give up asking about Xiaolu.

"Uncle, I have another question I want to ask you."

"Young man, if you have any questions, just ask. If I know the old man, I will definitely tell you." The old man was very enthusiastic, as if he hadn't talked to anyone for a long time, but suddenly found someone who was willing to talk to him same as people.

"Okay, then I'll ask, I've been in this village for so long just now, why haven't I seen a single villager, your village is so big, and I've only seen you until now, what's going on? ?” Su Shangqiu asked in confusion.

After hearing Su Shangqiu's question, the old man laughed. He stroked his beard and replied, "They are not as idle as people in your city. You see, the tea leaves in your hands are grown by them. Well, they are all picking tea leaves on the mountain at this time."

After hearing this, Su Shangqiu suddenly realized: "It turned out to be like this, no wonder I didn't see anyone."

"But they're coming back soon, why don't you wait a bit, I'll ask them to pack some fresh tea for you, and let you take it back and taste it slowly."

Su Shangqiu hurriedly declined and said: "Old man, no need, it's a waste of such a good tea for a rough man like me, I have to find my colleague."

After Su Shangqiu stood up, he continued, "I'll bother you again next time I have time."

Seeing Su Shangqiu's eagerness, the old man didn't hold back, stood up and said, "Then you should hurry up and find your colleague, don't worry so much, your friend is not a child anymore, maybe he forgot to bring his mobile phone or I didn't answer your calls because of something urgent."

"Maybe, but I still have to look for it, otherwise I will feel uneasy, so I will leave first."

"Okay, young man, you can come to play again when you have time." The old man said kindly, but when Su Shangqiu was not paying attention, there was a gleam of coldness in his eyes.

"The environment here is so good, I will definitely come here when I am free, and now I will go to work first."

After saying this, after the old man nodded, he walked out of this luxurious building on stilts and walked out along the path.

Since the villagers here are all picking tea leaves on the mountain, there is no need for him to ask the villagers here for news. Although there will be some old people at home, it is estimated that they will not be able to ask anything.

He walked back to the altar along the path, he went under the big tree, took out his mobile phone, and wanted to call his colleagues, but he found that there was not even a single signal here, so he had no choice but to walk out Village, came to the intersection of the concrete road, and took out his mobile phone to call his colleagues again.

But the strange thing is that he couldn't get through any of the calls. He looked at the phone and found that the signal was full, and he couldn't help but feel confused.

He thought for a while, then suddenly patted himself on the head, and satirized himself: How stupid, since there is no signal in the village, what's the use of having a signal here, and there is no signal on the other side.

Then he thought about whether Xiaolu could not receive their calls because there was no signal in the village, but after thinking about it for a while, he thought it was wrong, because Xiaolu's mobile phone was already connected. , there must be a signal on the other side.

Is it really like what the uncle said, Xiaolu forgot to bring his mobile phone?

Or is it really urgent to leave here?

Did he miss his call because he was on mute, or was he unavailable?

Su Shangqiu called Xiaolu again, but there were still bursts of busy tones coming from the phone.

The sun was about to set at this time, and the light could no longer make people feel a trace of heat.

Su Shangqiu looked at the time on his phone and found that it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.

He put away his mobile phone, smelled the smell of sweat on his body, frowned slightly, waited for a while, and when he found that his colleague hadn't come out, he also knew that he couldn't wait here any longer.

He now has two choices, one is to go back to the village and find a family to spend the night, the other is to go back to Changshan Xianyuan Hotel.

After thinking about it, he decided to go back to Changshan Xianyuan Hotel first, because he didn't want to bother the people in the village. Maybe we can meet him?

As for his colleagues, just like what the old man in the village said, they are not children anymore, and they will always find a place to live, but there is always a trace of uneasiness in his heart.

The place where this village is located is already very remote, and cars still come here during the day, but at this point in time, let alone cars, the sound of cars can't be heard.

Su Shangqiu looked at the long road, then stepped up helplessly and walked towards the loop.

After an hour of walking, he finally returned to the Xianyuan Hotel. He reserved a room, and immediately took a warm shower after returning to the room. After the shower, he dried his hair with a hair dryer, and immediately jumped on the Bed, lying heavily on the bed.

After walking for a day, he really couldn't take it anymore. He felt sore and sore all over his body was really uncomfortable. At this time, he was lying on the bed and took a bath. He was really refreshed, the happiest feeling in the world Really nothing more than that.

At this moment, he didn't think about anything, didn't want to do anything, just lay quietly like this, and after a while, he really couldn't bear the attack of sleepiness, and fell into a deep sleep.
