” Weird, why is the empty note in my personal pocket gone? ”

” Could it be that I threw it into the small forest while I was scram? ” Ma Zi expressionlessly asked.

” ”Oh yeah, I carried the leather from the Mountain Demons. Did you take a look? Is there anything that's not clean?”

” To think that you were trying to get into the woods with Old Branch Book as a kid. That flower snake skin, but why is there only a gap of one horn on the skin of that flower snake wrapped in rattan, that spotted adult deer? It's a horned deer, the last white bear skin. Didn't you find some dead body snow in the skin? ”Think about it, where would these animals appear from? You should know where these skins are from!” He took off his clothes and got into bed.

”Bugs, what have you done these past few years you've dropped out of school?” Actually, I still couldn't bear to trust this pockmarked fellow in my heart. Ever since I lost my empty spot, I seemed to have understood a lot during my sleep last night. After this realization, I suddenly didn't dare to believe anything overnight, including the person I was most familiar with.

”How many times have you touched money all these years? How many times have I touched mountains?!”

”But I'm numb. I feel that I can't get excited about money, especially the feeling when I touch it!”

”But, I am becoming more and more infatuated with Mountain, did you know, Little San, sometimes I feel like I have a disease, I can live my life without touching women, but I can't do that without touching Mountain, Mountain's beauty, danger, and mysteriousness, it's just like a giant poison, I'm addicted to it!” When the pockmarked person said this, his eyes flickered with an abnormal flame, as if he was a person that loved food and wine. Whenever he talked about hawthorn, large mouthfuls of saliva would gush out from his mouth.

At that time, the big guy only opened up a path, because there were a lot of kids, not just for hunting, but also for fun. However, on the way back, after walking along the same path for half a day, they were unable to find the main road, and then, after walking for a long time, they were unable to find the end of the road where they finally stopped.

It could be said that no matter which direction they went at the fork in the road, it was an endless stretch. One wouldn't be able to see the original red cloth strip, nor would they be able to find the end to it.

”Then you guys definitely came out at the end. How about, I still talk to you this time?”

”We really haven't come out yet. At that time, we were trapped on that road for over half a month, and after the snow melted, we finally walked back!”
