ands, it is truly a sight to behold. Gaze upward and you'll find refreshing blue skies, while all around you lies vibrant green. 。This city has good reason to be a seaside tourist destination. 。The r...After this batch of "Yinzhou Hegemons" completely lost consciousness, Wei Xishan ordered his men to transport them away through a special passage. 。Wei Xishan returned to her room, closed the door, and with every step, she shed a bit of her cheongsam until only her smooth, flawless body remained. She entered the bathroom and let the clear water flow from her long hair, neck, and **skin**, just like the spring in Mount Meng flowing over smooth stones...A stream in Mount Meng was crystal clear, making a pleasant "whooshing" sound as it flowed down towards the valley below. 。Along a mountain road by the stream, three SUVs rumbled past and sped deep into Wumeng. 。The first vehicle was driven by Tong Guorui, the captain of the 108th Geological Team of the Provincial Geological Bureau, and six team members. They are familiar with the mining area of Yezhutang Village in Zhang Heng Town, Qian Shui County. This time they are not only leading the way but also visiting experts from the Hua Jing Geomineral Bureau. By the way, they have some free time to do some "geological surveys". 。In the second car was Yu Dongnan, director of the Guizhou Provincial Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources, as well as Xiao Zheng and Ren Yongle. 。

The third car was the bodyguard of the Xiao family from Huaking. They had been following from afar, but when they reached the mountainous area, the road was rugged and winding, and they might lose track easily. So Xiao Zheng simply let them follow along. 。Of course, this also caught the attention of Yu Dongnan, the director of the Geological Bureau. He couldn't help but ask Xiao Zheng: "Xiao Minister, they are..." Xiao Zheng replied: "My friends, they have never been to Mount Meng before. They came here for a walk this time. They won't be in the way, so let them follow along." 。"

Yu Dongnan could tell from the guards' attire and demeanor that these people were definitely not Xiao Zheng's ordinary friends! Perhaps they were the public security from Ninggan Province, here to protect Xiao Zheng's safety But Xiao Zheng's level wasn't high enough to warrant personal security yet, so they were hiding their identities That had to be it! Anyway, venturing deep into Mount Meng, having more people around would definitely make things safer, helping each other along the way. Yu Dongnan naturally wouldn't object." 。Once, there were poems describing the Long March as “golden sands beat against clouds and warm cliffs, Wumeng mountains majestic with mud balls.” It depicted the grandeur, hardship, and unwavering determination of victory! Now, Xiao Zheng is accompanied by local leaders, venturing deep into this renowned Mengshan Mountain... 。The YunGui region truly lives up to its name, "eight parts mountains, one part water, and one part farmland". Entering Meng Mountain, we realize that highlands, mountains, hills, and basins are intertwined, with peaks rising and layers upon layers stretching across the landscape. Cars and people within this environment resemble ants crawling through a pile of rocks, making us feel incredibly insignificant. 。On the way, Yu Dongnan introduced: "Mengshan is the watershed between the Jinhua and Panjiang rivers, with an average elevation of over 2,000 meters. There are basins and lakes scattered among them, the largest being Caohu, which permeates the mountain body, forming the famous karst landform. The cultures of Yelang, Red Culture, and ancient city are intertwined, and the customs of ethnic minorities have added to its diverse charm..."As Yu Dongnan introduced, Xiao Zheng's gaze fell outside the car window. In this undeveloped Mengshan, among the green mountains and rivers, there were still some villages dotted... 。This made Xiao Zheng feel that the mountains and rivers were so beautiful! However, fog was gradually forming. The weather in the mountains was ever-changing. Green mist spread like silk cloth, covering the forests, streams, hills, and mounds. Everything became blurry and indistinct, as if it didn't really exist. Soon, rain began to fall, making the road muddy. 。For safety reasons, the car slowed down. 。The captain of the 108 Geological Team of the Provincial Bureau of Geology, Tong Guorui, called from the escort vehicle. Yu Dongnan instructed: "Take your time, but ensure safety above all else." 。Anyway, Professor Yunqi's mining area has already found 。Xiao Zheng also agreed that when traveling in the mountains, safety should come first. 。So, the speed slowed down. After driving over 80 kilometers in the direction of Qian Shui County, the three vehicles suddenly discovered that the road ahead was blocked by a landslide. The convoy could only stop!

The head of the geological team immediately contacted the local county government. The county government responded and promised to send people to clear the roadblock immediately. 。It's already past ten thirty in the morning. 。The roads in the mountains are completely different from those in the plains. 。Even if two places are only a few kilometers apart as the crow flies, traveling through winding mountain roads can take several hours. 。So, from the provincial capital Yangnan City to Zhang Heng Town Ye Zhu Tang Village mine area itself takes about ten hours by car! Now this is happening, encountering landslides, we can only stop, and I really don't know how many hours it will take to arrive!

At this time, Captain Tong Guo Rui ran over and suggested to the leader Yu Dongnan: "Director Yu, it's not safe on this road. If there is another landslide behind us, we won't be able to get in or out!" 。"Well, why don't we turn around and check out that village down there first We could go to some villagers' houses and get something to eat. Then we can come back up once the road is open."

"That's not a bad idea" 。Yu Dongnan looked at Xiao Zheng: "Xiao Minister, what do you think" Xiao Zheng looked ahead. In the rain and mist, the collapsed mountain had completely filled the road surface. The car definitely couldn't get through. He said, "Okay, I have no objection." 。Yu Dongnan then said to Tong Guorui, “Let’s go find some food at a nearby farmhouse.” 。Keep in touch with the county, and let us know as soon as the roadblock is removed. 。"Tong Guorui said, "Okay, I will keep in touch with the county." 。。After driving about ten kilometers more, at the bottom of the valley beneath the road, we could vaguely see three houses and smoke rising from them!

When we got down there, there was a rice paddy. The rice stalks were slightly yellowing, but the dirt road leading to the houses was very narrow, obviously not wide enough for a car to pass. So everyone got out of the car and followed the small dirt road, walking in a long line. 。The rain had noticeably lessened, turning into a light mist. So everyone decided to forgo their umbrellas. 。Before we reached the hut, we smelled the aroma of cooked rice. Everyone's stomach started rumbling with hunger. 。If this were in the city, a bowl of rice and a plate of vegetables wouldn't be worth much. But out here in these remote mountains, even this tiny spark of life feels like endless satisfaction. 。Tong Guorui and his subordinates first walked into the house and called out: "Uncle, Aunt... There was a landslide ahead, we couldn't get through, there are more than ten people who have nowhere to eat..." 。Could we possibly have a meal at your place We're willing to pay, just something simple and filling. 。Then, an old man's voice rang out, speaking in the local YunGui dialect: "Well, well, we rarely have guests! Come on in and take shelter from the light rain." 。"Okay, okay, thank you, Mister and Madam!" Tong Guorui hurriedly ran out and whispered, "Minister Xiao, Director Yu, they've welcomed us, let's go in." 。"Yu Dongnan said, "Minister Xiao, let's go in! Everyone, come inside." 。Yu Dongnan and Xiao Zheng walked at the front, and the others followed. 。Upon entering the house, I realized that the three bungalows were connected; two were joined together, while the other had a door, which must have been a bedroom. 。Xiao Zheng still saw through the back window of the house a small earthen hut outside, with pigs inside, making snorting sounds!

The uncle and aunt were both over sixty years old, looking thin, but their bones seemed to be in good shape. 。The old man was wearing blue, worn-out clothes, and the old woman had an apron on. They were already cooking. 。The old woman seemed to have counted the number of heads and said to the old man, "Go fetch six or seven catties more rice. Make sure it's enough! Bring some cured pork too, so the guests can try our Yi people's double-cured pork!" Xiao Zheng couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, are you Yi people" The old woman smiled, her face wrinkled with many creases, a shy look on her face like an honest person. "Yes, we are Yi people." 。Xiao Zheng smiled and said, “Auntie, the Yi people are the sixth largest ethnic minority in China.” 。I heard that you all wear right-opening long or short jackets, embroidered high-buttoned caps, and sparrow shoes, but today I didn't notice it. 。“The auntie smiled and said, “When we were young, we wore like that. We looked so beautiful and handsome.” 。Now that my husband and I are getting older, there aren't any houses for miles around us. We just wear whatever is convenient for work. 。"Xiao Zheng asked again, "There aren't any houses around here anymore There isn't anyone to look after each other, isn't that lonely" The old lady laughed and said, "There used to be people living here, but in recent years, some elderly people have passed away, and young people have gone out to work and haven't come back, so there are fewer and fewer people." 。But my grandpa and I are used to it, and every week, Zhang Xiwen, the secretary of our village, comes by on his motorbike. 。"Zhang Xiwen, the Party Secretary Xiao Zheng naturally didn't recognize her. "She is the village secretary," the auntie said, "A good girl, who studied for a master’s degree in Huaxing and came back to our Mudou Village as the first party secretary! Don't look at her, she's just a young woman under thirty, but she rides a big motorcycle and roams all over the mountains, helping the people of all ethnic groups here." 。“Xiao Zheng really didn't expect that there would be such a female secretary stationed in this mountain.” 。"Right, Zhang the secretary is coming today!" The old man carried a sack of rice and a large piece of cured pork over. 。Grandma also said, "Yes, she comes every Wednesday." 。We invited her to have lunch with us, but she always comes after lunch! Xiao Zheng really wanted to meet this village secretary that everyone was talking about. 。This mechanism of appointing village secretaries, found in some provinces, involves sending selected young officials to the grassroots level. They work there to gain experience, contribute to rural development, and bridge the gap between younger cadres and ordinary people at the grassroots. This allows new-generation officials to understand the hardships faced by the common people firsthand. 。This measure is indeed good, but it hasn't been widely implemented in Xisha Head yet. 。If I could meet this female village secretary in person, perhaps I could learn more about her directly. 。The old man gave the rice and meat to his wife, then from the simple bamboo cupboard, he took out a stack of bowls, rinsed them with boiling water, and then began to make tea. Yongle saw this and stepped forward to help: "Sir, what kind of tea is this It smells so good." 。"

This is our 'canned tea' here!" the old man said, "In our Mengshan area, we greet guests with 'a cup of tea when they arrive and a cup after meals', we can't be without this 'canned tea'." 。"This tea leaves are all mountain herbs! We picked and roasted them ourselves!"

At this moment, a sound of a motorbike suddenly came from outside the house, getting closer and closer!over it up: "Can I have a little of this wine"Xiao Rongrong and Xiao Zheng were both surprised. This young girl could actually drink Judy put her hand on An Ruyi's hand, originally wanting to remind h...
