Chapter 1

It was midsummer, and the temperature was high and the air was stuffy. Although the sun was already setting in the sky, the fierceness of the light did not drop at all, and it was still burning and eroding people's skin unscrupulously.

On the gravel road in the mountains, Yu Xiaoxi held the map in her left hand, and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her right hand from time to time.Her white short-sleeved shirt was completely wet with sweat, and it was tightly attached to her body, reflecting the pink underwear, but she had no time to look at it.

"It should be right ahead." She muttered, then put away the drawings, put them in her backpack, grabbed the straps with both hands, and continued to walk along the rough road.

Now she urgently needs to find the hotel called 'Zhiqing Mountain Villa', because she is so tired that she is about to collapse, so she desperately wants to take a bath, and then have a good sleep.

"Damn Ruan Lingjia, I will take care of you when I go back, and you tricked me into coming to this kind of place." Yu Xiaoxi cursed bitterly through gritted teeth.

Ruan Lingjia is Yu Xiaoxi's college classmate. Because of the similar age, the same major, and the fact that they "smell like each other", the two are very close.

They are all college students who have just graduated from school. Ruan Lingjia went to a design institute in the city because of family connections, while Yu Zhixi took a different approach and found a job that had nothing to do with her major. The company is Feiyang, one of the three leading enterprises in C City.

It turned out that this ghost place was the task of Ruan Lingjia, because in response to the party's call for the policy of coordinating urban and rural development, the design institute where she worked required every probationary student to conduct a field survey on the construction of a new countryside, and Ruan Lingjia got the best job. Zhiqing Village, which is remote and has the least developed transportation, can also be called the most beautiful and original ecological village.

Unfortunately, Ruan Lingjia suddenly had her period, and the time limit stipulated above was one week, so Yu Xiaoxi was forced to go to Liangshan.Even though she was very reluctant in her heart, and even said a hundred NO's to Ruan Lingjia, she still couldn't stand her soft words, threats and temptations.

It's just that Yu Xiaoxi never imagined that this so-called Zhiqing Village could be so original. Although it is full of green pines and green trees, full of greenery and quiet mood, it is a place of Taoyuan, but the more than 20 kilometers of gravel roads, The twists and turns made her speechless. After more than four hours of walking, she didn't even see a bicycle, let alone a car.

While Yu Xiaoxi was still complaining about Ruan Lingjia in her heart, a signboard that could be called a 'desert oasis' appeared in front of her, and her blood began to boil in an instant.

"800 meters in front of Zhiqing Mountain Villa", the first time Yu Xiaoxi saw the number 800 and felt excited. At school, when the physical education teacher asked her to run 800 meters, she always felt that it was a curse, but today's short The short distance of less than one kilometer has become her blessing, so she puts all her strength into the final sprint.

With such a beautiful name, 'Zhiqing Mountain Villa', I think it should be a building built near the mountains and facing the water, just like Wright's "Flowing Water Villa". The corner of her mouth couldn't help showing a faint smile. If she could live in "Fallingwater Villa" for a day in this life, she would be willing to pay her a month's salary. However, when that "beautiful villa" finally came true. When the reality appeared in front of her, she finally understood what is the gap between dream and reality, that distance is even farther than the Milky Way between Cowherd and Weaver Girl.

A very traditional dot-style multi-storey unit house, with peeling white lime and red bricks exposed, showing its age. It is covered with graffiti advertisements of various pigments, and the "Zhiqing" made of metal materials can also be vaguely seen. The handwriting of "The Villa" is just that the font has been washed by the years so that it is almost the same as the color of the wall.Outside the house is a large courtyard surrounded by bamboo weaving and fences. Inside, there are reclaimed vegetable fields, long loofahs, and cucumbers hanging all over the branches.

In the yard, a fat, dark-skinned woman in her fifties wearing a blue apron was feeding the chickens, making the sound of 'clack...'.

"Auntie, hello, this is 'Zhiqing Villa'?" Yu Xiaoxi finally summoned up the courage to take a step towards the woman feeding the chickens, thinking: Let's experience farm life .

When the aunt saw Yu Xiaoxi, she quickly put down the wooden basin in her hand, patted the ashes on her body, and then replied with a smile on her face, "You want a house, right?"

"Ma'am, what are you talking about, can you be clearer?" Because Ming Yicen is not a native of City C, and the lady in front of her obviously speaks a local dialect.

"Do you want a house?" the aunt repeated, speaking in Mandarin, but it was very laborious and clumsy. In order to ensure that Yu Xiaoxi could understand, she also added body language.

Yu Xiaoxi nodded, although she still couldn't hear clearly, she finally understood.

"Follow me to the house to register." The aunt pulled off the cloth, and welcomed Yu Xiaoxi in with fiery enthusiasm.

For this hotel, Yu Xiaoxi's most primitive hope has been completely shattered, so now the lowest level of needs is left. Fortunately, it is relatively clean inside and does not continue the style of the courtyard. Very simple.

"You go here to register." The aunt took out a red leather notebook and handed it to Yu Xiaoxi.

Looking at the record of the person in front, although she still didn't understand, she almost knew what to do.

"This is the key to your room, with the house number on it." The boss handed Yu Xiaoxi a silver key with a number on it.

After showing her ID card and paying the rent, Yu Xiaoxi took the key to find the room, and the aunt also went out.

Finally resting, Yu Xiaoxi breathed a sigh of relief, but when she looked down at the number on the key in her hand, she was confused. Is it '9' or '6'?

Yu Xiaoxi turned the key upside down, turned it upside down, and looked at it no less than ten times, trying to tell whether the white cloth tape said 6 or 9.

How to do?Go ask the aunt, Yu Xiaoxi turned around and chased after her, but when she saw that the aunt was plowing the vegetable field with a hoe, she stopped when she just reached the front of the hall, and suddenly remembered that she and the aunt had a language problem generation gap, so I had to give up.

Since you can't tell whether it's 9 or 6, just try the door. Whichever door you can open, it's the room.

There are only five rooms on each floor of the hotel, which Yu Xiaoxi figured out after reading all the house numbers on the first floor, and then she dragged her exhausted body up to the second floor.

Walking to the door of Room 6, Yu Xiaoxi was about to try the lock, but the door opened by itself, and then she saw a woman with a bucket and mop coming out of it, almost bumping into herself.
