My name is Chen Tiezhu, I am 58 this year, I was a soldier when I was young, and I returned to my hometown in the countryside after I was discharged from the army. originally thought that life could be dull, but it didn't come to pass, but the marriage came to an end, and the wife left this poor family with the children. I became a loner, wandering, and began a life of wandering.
That day, I came to a remote mountain village, and the people in the village were very simple. I wandered around the village, looking for a job. happened to meet the village chief, his name is Li Cannon, as his name suggests, with a loud voice and a straight temperament.
"You're from out of town?" Li Cannon looked me up and down.
I nodded: "Yes, Village Chief Li, I want to find a job in the village." ”
Li Cannon's eyes widened: "You have been a soldier?"
I nodded again.
"Okay!" Li Dacang slapped his thigh, "our village needs someone like you." So, you live in my house first, do some farm work for me, and I'll pay you. ”
So, I stayed at Li Dacang's house. During the day, we worked together in the fields, and in the evening, we drank and chatted. One day, Li Dacang suddenly mentioned something.
"Tiezhu, do you know? There is an ancient tomb in the mountain behind our village, and legend has it that there are many treasures in it. Li Cannon said mysteriously.
I frowned: "Do you believe this kind of thing?"
"Of course I believe it!" Li Dacang's eyes widened, "When I was young, I went on an expedition! Unfortunately, I didn't dare to go in at that time." ”
I shook my head and didn't say anything more. However, this incident planted a seed in my heart.
One day, Li Dacang suddenly fell ill and needed to go to the city to see a doctor. Before leaving, he gave me the keys to the house and asked me to help him take care of the house. I agreed.
After Li Cannon left, I was alone at home, always thinking about the ancient tomb. Finally, I couldn't help but go to the back mountain.
The ancient tomb in the back mountain really exists, and it is quite well preserved. I cautiously walked into the tomb, it was eerie, but I wasn't afraid. Suddenly, I found a mechanism, and curiosity drove me to press it.
I only heard a "boom", and a large hole opened in the ground, and I fell into it. It turned out to be a trap. I struggled to climb out, but found that the walls were so smooth that I had nowhere to lean on.
Just when I was desperate, a voice came from the entrance of the cave: "Hey, people below, are you still alive?"
I looked up and saw a strange old man standing at the entrance of the cave.
"I'm alive!" I shouted.
The old man smiled: "Okay then, I'll pull you up." ”
That's how I got to know this mysterious old man. He told me that he was also an explorer of this tomb when he was younger, but because of an accident, he was stranded here. For decades, he was looking for a way to get out.
The old man and I became friends, and together we studied the mechanism of the tomb and found a way out. Finally, by chance, we discovered the secrets of the ancient tomb.
Just as we were about to leave the ancient tomb, Li Cannon suddenly appeared at the entrance of the cave. He looked at us with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Tiezhu, it turns out that you are really a capable person. Li Cannon sighed, "I underestimated you before. ”
I smiled: "Village Chief Li, thank you for taking care of you during this time. ”
Li Cannon shook his head: "It's us who thank you, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid the secret of our village's back mountain would never be solved." ”
In this way, I left this small mountain village and continued my wandering life. Although my marriage has ended, I have found new friends and found my worth in my wanderings. Life, perhaps as it is, always surprises us inadvertently. And I will continue to walk and find my own future.
Leaving the small mountain village, I packed my bags and continued my wandering life. Along the way, I have seen many people and things, and my heart is full of emotion. By chance, I heard about a place called Wind Chime Valley, which is said to be a beautiful place to escape from the world.
I followed the winding mountain road to the Valley of the Wind Chimes. The scenery here is truly stunning, and the air is filled with the fresh scent of flowers. I decided to stay here for a while to relax my tired mind.
In the Valley of the Wind Chimes, I met a woman named Liu'er. She was as gentle as water, and her smile was like a spring breeze. Liu Er is a widow who lives alone with her children. We hit it off at first sight and poured out the bitterness in our hearts to each other.
One day, Liu Er said to me, "Do you know the Iron Pillar? There is a legend in the Valley of the Wind Chimes that there is a mysterious tomb at the bottom of the valley, and there is a treasure that can make people rejuvenate themselves. ”
I smiled and remembered the ancient tomb that Li Dacang said: "Do you believe this kind of thing?"
Liu Er's eyes were firm: "I believe it." My husband went on an expedition when he was younger, but unfortunately never returned. I've always believed that he was in that tomb. ”
I was moved by Liu'er's persistence and decided to accompany her to find the ancient tomb. We walked along the mountain road in the Valley of the Wind Chimes, looking for and chatting at the same time.
"Tiezhu, you have been a soldier, you must have experienced a lot of dangerous things, right?" asked Liu Er curiously.
I nodded, reminiscing about the past: "yes, those days were really dangerous. But I think that life is an adventure, and only by facing it bravely can you find your true self. ”
Finally, we found the tomb in the depths of the Valley of the Wind Chimes. The entrance to the tomb was blocked by a boulder, and it took a lot of effort for Liu Er and I to move the boulder out of the way.
It's eerie in the catacombs, but I'm used to it. We cautiously explored, and suddenly, I found a dark compartment. In the dark compartment is a quaint box with a radiant gem lying in it.
"Is this the legendary rejuvenation gem?" asked Liu'er excitedly.
I shook my head: "Whatever it is, we can't take it with us." What's in the tomb, let's leave it here. ”
Liu Er looked at me, her eyes full of gratitude: "Tiezhu, you are really a good person. I've decided, I'm going to leave the Valley of the Windbells with you and go in search of our future. ”
I smiled and shook Liu'er's hand: "Okay, let's go to find the future together." ”
After leaving the Valley of the Wind Chimes, Liu'er and I started a new life. We traveled from city to city, working part-time, and at the same time looking for our own happiness. Although life is still difficult, we all firmly believe that as long as we hold hands, we will definitely find our own piece of the sky.
Along the way, I have met many people and things. Although my marriage has brought me pain, I have found true love in my wanderings. Life, perhaps as it is, always surprises us inadvertently. And I will continue to walk to find our own future.
In the days when we left the Valley of the Wind Chimes, Liu'er and I walked hand in hand, and each other became the most important people in each other's lives. We worked hard in the city and tasted all the flavors of the world. Although life is still difficult, our hearts are tightly intertwined and warm each other.
One day, we found a stable job in a bustling city, Liu Er worked as a teacher in a kindergarten, and I worked in a security company. Our lives are getting back on track and we're starting to have some savings.
One weekend, Liu'er and I took our children to the park. The sun is shining, the grass is green, and the children are laughing and chasing on the grass. Liu Er looked at them with happiness in her eyes.
"Iron pillars, you see, how happy the children are. Liu Er said with emotion.
I nodded: "Yes, their happiness is very simple, unlike us adults, who always have so many worries. ”
Liu Er smiled and shook my hand: "However, I think life is pretty good now." We had each other, we had children, and we had stable jobs. ”
I looked into Liu'er's eyes and said affectionately, "You gave it to me, Liu'er." It was you who made me understand what true happiness is. ”
Just then, our child suddenly spotted a butterfly on the grass and excitedly cried out, "Mommy, Dad, look, butterfly!"
We looked in the direction of the child's finger and saw the butterfly dancing in the sun, like a beautiful picture. I suddenly remembered the legend of the Valley of the Wind Chimes and couldn't help but laugh.
"Liu'er, do you remember that legend? about the rejuvenating gem. I asked.
Liu Er nodded: "Of course I remember." However, I don't think that legend matters anymore. We have found true happiness. ”
I clasped Liu'er's hand tightly and sighed with emotion: "Yes, happiness is all around us, not those ethereal legends." ”
The years are like a song, and we have spent countless springs, summers, autumns and winters in this city. As the children grow up, so do we. However, our feelings have become deeper and deeper, as if they have experienced the baptism of the years, and have become more precious.
One night, Liu Er and I sat on the balcony, looking at the starry sky, reminiscing about the bits and pieces since we met.
"Tiezhu, do you think we'll have any more adventures?" asked Liu Er suddenly.
I smiled and hugged her into my arms: "Maybe." But no matter how bumpy the road ahead is, I will be by your side and walk together. ”
Liu Er looked up at me with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, Tiezhu." With you, I'm not afraid of anything. ”
We looked at each other and smiled, hugging each other tightly. On this warm night, we seem to have returned to our youth, and that uninhibited heart is still beating warmly in our chests.
Life is always full of countless possibilities. Liu Er and I, as well as our children, will continue to write our own stories in this vast world. And those former pains and frustrations have become the most valuable wealth in our lives. In the days to come, we will move forward hand in hand to pursue a better tomorrow.
As the years passed, we settled down in this city, and our lives were dull and happy. The children grew up and had their own lives. Liu'er and I are getting older, but our relationship is getting deeper. Every spring, summer, autumn and winter, we will be on the balcony and reminisce about the bits and pieces of those years together.
"Tiezhu, do you remember the first time we met?" asked Liu'er suddenly.
I smiled: "Of course I do." At that time, you were like the sunshine of spring, warming my whole world. ”
Liu Er leaned on my arms, her eyes full of happiness: "Yes, at that time, my heart was full of confusion and fear. It was you who gave me courage and hope. ”
I clasped her hand: "We have gone through so many ups and downs along the way, but I have never regretted it. ”
Liu Er looked up at me, tears flashing in her eyes: "Tiezhu, thank you for accompanying me through so many days." I love you. ”
I gently stroked her hair: "I love you too, Liu'er. No matter how bumpy the road ahead may be, I will be by your side. ”
At this moment, our children suddenly walked onto the balcony, looked at us and hugged each other tightly, and smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, are you reminiscing about the past again?"
I looked at the children and my heart was full of emotion: "Yes, we are reminiscing about the past and looking forward to the future." ”
The children gathered around us, and our family of five hugged each other tightly. On this warm night, we seem to have returned to our youth, and that uninhibited heart is still beating warmly in our chests.
The years are like a song, and we have spent countless springs, summers, autumns and winters in this city. As the children grow up, so do we. However, our feelings have become deeper and deeper, as if they have experienced the baptism of the years, and have become more precious.
Life is always full of countless possibilities. Liu Er and I, as well as our children, will continue to write our own stories in this vast world.
