After Le Yao and I looked at each other for a while, they ignored them and continued to squat on the ground with the group of children playing with something like marbles. I looked at Robben helplessly, and then walked towards her from the foot of the mountain.

Soon I came to her with Robben. I was still bound by some emotion and didn't say anything. Instead, Robben asked at her with a smile: "Big name, the big guy is making a big fuss now. You are still in the mood to play marbles with a bunch of kids here. I didn't think you had the courage to keep your face unchanged!"

Le Yao replied without even raising her head, "I love playing like this, is it a hindering you?"

"You are making a little bitch!"

"You don't care." Le Yao said as she picked up a marble she had won from the ground and stuffed it into her pocket. The lost child was looking at her with a sad face. This picture was full of the calculating fun of childhood.

Robben was bored and didn't mess with Le Yao. Then he took off his big backpack from his body, took out a bunch of stationery and toys from it and distributed them to the children, and then exchanged them for several words, "Thank you, uncle."

Several children had new toys and scattered away, and Leyao just left the order. She looked at the group of leaving children and sat on the grass with some dismay, then looked at the scenery on the mountain, but she was still unwilling to look at me in front of her.

Robben finally couldn't stand it and jokingly said, "Oh, look at my memory, I forgot to introduce you to you two. After all, it's so strange to meet for the first time!"

Le Yao glared at Robben: "You go to die and you will know that it's stinking all day!"

"Have I harmed you? I've been sticking like a wooden stake for a long time, don't you bring this kind of fun, right?"

After all, I am a man, and I can't hold him better than Le Yao. I finally asked first: "Don't you feel uncomfortable sitting on the ground?"

Le Yao looked at me, then took out a handful of glass marbles from her pocket and threw them on me. Even Robben standing beside her was scattered. The group of scattered children returned, picked up the scattered glass marbles, and then dispersed again... This freedom of coming and going has once again infected myself, who is bound by many trivial matters, and it is inevitable that we are a little fascinated. Perhaps what we like is the simplicity and freedom here. Even if it is just a few inconspicuous glass marbles, it will be sublimated into a way of life, and then be happy for a long time.

"If you really want to smash him, just move the stones. If you make this thing, it will be painful and itchy. Even I will smash it!" Robben said, and kicked away the unpicked marbles in front of him.

Unexpectedly, Le Yao really picked up a stone from her side and threw it at him with a "swoosh". Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough and hid sideways. She sighed with lingering fear: "Good guy, this temper is like an explosive barrel, just take a moment!...I can't afford to offend you, you two continue chatting, I'll go around first!"

After the group of children and Robben left one after another, only Le Yao and me were left in the huge mountains. The hot summer wind blew, and the smell of smoke from noon was blowing, and the pine waves in the forest were blown up. I was lost for a while before sitting down next to Le Yao.

After a long time, Le Yao finally spoke to me: "I have been quiet for a few days, what motive did you come with?"

"Don't you go back in Beijing? You have to be willful."

"Do you have to take care of my business?"

"It's time now, so stop talking about being angry, okay?"

"baffling!"

"For some reason?...Don't you know that Beijing is in full swing now? Your agent is almost crazy..."

"If you have anything to hurry, I'll just come out to relax."

I realized something must be wrong, and then asked, "Don't you know what's happening in Beijing?"

"What's wrong with Beijing?"

At this time, I finally confirmed that Le Yao knew nothing about the vicious hype incident that had been exposed in the past two days. She should have left Beijing before the incident broke out. I immediately took out my phone to find out the news of the past two days for her to show her, but found that the signals in the mountains were not ordinary, and the Internet could not be reached at all. Fortunately, there was an entertainment weekly magazine in my backpack, which immediately took them out and handed them to her.

Le Yao took the newspaper from me with a puzzled look, and only looked at a title, her face became ugly. Then she held the newspaper tightly with her hands, her expression full of anger and mixed with loss, and she muttered to herself softly: "Why... Why did I date such a shameless man for so long? Why did I still hurt me repeatedly? Why?"

I sighed softly and comforted: "Don't be too sad. The most urgent thing is to go back to Beijing quickly and make a positive response to minimize the losses caused by this incident!"

Le Yao suddenly laughed: "Haha... Why do I respond to such a disgusting scum... What does he like to say? How do he say it? I have been blind and a livestock in those years!"

"Don't say something angry. If you don't respond, wouldn't it be like acquiescing his statement?"

Le Yao suddenly choked up and leaned on her legs. She helped to hold the newspaper in her hand "squeaking" and whispered: "I'm tired, I'm really tired... Who can understand?"

Feeling her heartache, I couldn't even give me a comforting hug. I just took out a cigarette from my pocket and lit it for myself in depression, and then looked at the group of children playing in the distance... In fact, this mountain, this group of people will not really take away the worries of the world, because in the deepest part of my heart, we still have an unforgettable desire for the world! So no matter how much ease and freedom we get here, they are stolen from escape, but desire has already taken root in our hearts.

"Zhaoyang, go, I don't want you to tell me these things... I just want to live here with a arrogant attitude. I have been fed up with urban life!"

"Is that so?... Then don't you want all this that you finally got?... Can your star aura be removed freely?"

"Why can't you? Tell me why can't you?...I just want to live so heartlessly and forget those disgusting desires. Is it OK? Do you think it's OK?"

"If you can really forget, you are not like this incoherent... Tell me, can you really find a villager here to marry, then have a child, and no longer ask about life outside the world?... Even if you think it is OK now, can you guarantee that it will be OK in 3, 5, and 10 years?... That's right, it's very quiet and free, but there are no bars, luxury stores, luxury cars, villas, and no admiration for others. What should you do when you rekindle your desire for these one day?"

"When your heart dies, you will no longer have desires..."

"As long as you live in a human body, you will never be able to get rid of desires... And humans are animals on a whim. You can't figure out when those desires you can't control will surge!"

Le Yao didn't speak anymore for a long time, just leaned on her legs, and I couldn't even see her expression clearly, just guessing uneasy what she was thinking now, maybe she didn't think about anything, all she had was anxiety and panic...

Another hot wind blew, and there was already some slight sweat on Leyao's temples. It was not until she dripped down her hair that she raised her head and said to me: "I am not a person who can completely get rid of desire. I will go back to Beijing to face all this, but I still want to stay here for two days."

"This is no problem, but you have to contact the agent first and let him calm down first. It just so happens that I will think about how to solve this malicious hype incident in the past two days."

Le Yao nodded, then stood up and walked towards the group of children playing in the distance. I didn't bother her anymore, but just sat under the shade of the tree and lost my mind alone for a long time.

......

At noon, the village chief killed chickens and ducks and warmly treated us. We talked a lot during the meal, but the topics were all centered around Wei Manwen. The village chief was still missing the days of Wei Manwen in the village, but Wei Manwen would not come back after all. It was not that she had a deep desire for the city, but she couldn't live without Roben, so returning to the city was also a choice she had to make, but this was still a desire after all... I think that even a woman like Wei Manwen who is indifferent to fame and fortune can't stay in this mountain village forever, let alone Le Yao?

After lunch, I contacted Afeng, who was far away in Xitang, and asked him to remit 100,000 yuan from the donation he raised during the last charity event. Then I handed the money over to the village chief and asked him to use the money to renovate the dilapidated classroom. The remaining money went to the town or county to hire a qualified teacher to teach these children, which can be regarded as making up for the shortcomings of Wei Manwen not continuing to teach here.

This afternoon, I had been sitting under the poplar tree at the entrance of the village, while Luo Ben acted as a music teacher, put down his posture and sang those children's songs, while Le Yao lived in the small tent she brought for lunch... I originally thought it would be a relatively quiet afternoon, but Le Yao, who woke up, found me who had just fallen into sleep, and kicked me to no avail...

I opened my eyes and looked at her, and saw her wearing a sun hat, carrying a cross-country bag, and holding a huge kettle in her hand and said to me: "Go to a place with me."

I asked in confusion: "Where to go?"

"Don't ask so many words, go or not?"

"You have a single word, do I have any choice?"

Seeing that I didn't refuse, Le Yao handed me his off-road bag and kettle and said, "You will follow me later. I just heard about that place. I'm not sure whether there is or not."

"Apart from heaven and hell, are there any places in this world that cannot be determined?"
