林东自汽车站走出来,提着个小包的他,很容易被误认为是外地人,几个拉客的摩托司机团团围上来,七嘴八舌地搭讪‘去哪里、我送你去’,满嘴的玉溪乡音。林东并不理会,提着包大步向前。一看没戏,那些热情的摩托司机赶紧转换目标,撇开林东,改问别的乘客,只有一个年龄并不很大但明显老相满鬓斑白的中年男子,依旧紧追不舍,只因他今天还没有正式开张,非要在林东身上赚到这笔车费作今天油钱不可。„River bendelementary school.”East the forestwantsto ride the taxi, butlookssurroundingdoes not have, never says die the fellow who followsnot to have the meanswiththis, hasto electhim.
“河湾小学。”林东本想坐出租车的,但一看周围没有,又拿这锲而不舍一路跟随的家伙没办法,只好选他。„Good!”Middle-agedmaleonehear, delighted, hurriedto throw the cigarette butt in hand, urgently needed the footto stub outanxiously.
“好咧!”中年男一听,喜出望外,赶紧把手中的烟头扔了,急急用脚踩熄。Driveswith great speedhismotorcycle.
火速将他的摩托车开过来。Quite a whiledoes not have the business, maygiveto suppresshimpainstakingly, has the businessto visit, the middle-agedmaleevenpricealsoforgotto saywith the foresteast,waited foreast the forestto take the packetto sit the boardingback seat, recordedsuddenly, at the same time the startvehicle, sidebandsaidwith the foresteastcautiously: „River bendelementary schoolfive.”For fear thateast the forestdid not agree, hurryingadded: „Roadis quite far, otherswalksix.”
半天没生意,可把他给憋苦了,一有生意上门,中年男连价钱也忘记跟林东说,等林东提着小包坐上了车后座,才猛然记起来,一边开动车子,一边带点小心翼翼地跟林东说:“河湾小学五块。”生怕林东不同意,又赶紧补充道:“路好远,别人走都六块。”East the foresthas not haggled over, onlyasked: „Intown/subdueshasto sell the camellia japonicaor the mountainherbal medicine?”
林东没有计较,只问:“镇上有没有卖山茶或者山草药的吗?”
The middle-agedmalesaidrepeatedly: „West the town/subduesDongxinmarket and town/subduesoldmarkethas, where do youwantto go?”
中年男连声说有:“镇东新市场和镇西的旧市场都有,你要去哪边?”

得到两边都要去的回答后,中年男沉默了,驾着车转左,向位于镇东的新市场驶去。他心里其实想提高一元的车费,镇东、镇西两边绕半圈,路程不算远,但也不近,只是这个时候不好开口,深怕客人一怒下车的他,只好一路沉默着,盘算着如何开口才好。Regarding the change of thismood, Im Dong-ilsmiles: „Givesyouten, youwalkseveralsteps, ifIbought the thing of meeting one's satisfaction, addstentoyouagain.”
对于这种情绪的变化,林东一笑:“给你十块,你多走几步,要是我买到了合意的东西,再给你加十块。”Middle-agedmalehearsword, inheartgreat happiness.
中年男闻言,心中大喜。
A face, brims with the joyfulrayimmediately: „Ok, yousat firmly!”
一张老脸,立即洋溢出喜悦的光芒:“行,你坐稳了!”Althoughthisis the change, butregardingtolivetwomealrushes aboutto toil the scarcefreshpeople, is actually an effectivedrive.
虽然这个是小钱,但对于为生活两餐奔波劳碌奇缺鲜活的民众来说,却不失是一种行之有效的激励。

乡镇的东西比城里要便宜,山茶和山草药这些东西就更便宜得跟大白菜似的,在街边摆摊卖山地野生药材的老大爷老太太的手中,林东仅用三百块,就买到了炼制活力丹所需的十几种药材,而且是几大包。为了加强这个购药效果,林东给每位老人发了五十的预订金,又指明收购十几种目前尚在缺口的药材,得到极大鼓舞的老大爷老太太仿佛一下子变得年轻了,瞬间爆发出当年走南闯北大杀四方的强大战斗力。Is determinedto walk into the mountaintomorrow, digsto the mountainherbal medicine that thisyoung manneeds, takesdoubleprices that hepromises.
一个个决意明天就进山,挖到这个小后生需要的山草药,拿下他许诺的双倍价钱。„Young man, relax, thesemedicinal herbs that you said that in the mountainhave, right, in the mountainanythinghas, the old man ensure digstoyou. The camellia japonicaalsohas, butyouare fresh, thiswill picktomorrowon time! Relax, Imakemy familygranddaughter-in-lawhelpyoupick, sheis dexterous, beforedidto earn a livingthat side the bigforesttea plantation!”
“后生,放心,你说的这些个药材,山里都有,对,山里什么都有,老汉保证给你挖下来。山茶也有啊,不过你要新鲜的,这得明儿赶早采!放心,我让我家孙媳妇帮你采,她手巧,以前在大林茶场那边做过活!”„Yougive a telephonetous, Imakemy familybabydelivertoyoudirectly......”
“你给我们留个电话,我让我家娃子直接给你送上门……”
After smalltalk of Im Dong-ilcoordination, stays behind a cell phone number of foreign relations.
林东一番配合的客套后,留下一个对外联系的手机号码。Wavesto make farewell speechagain.
再挥手作别。Stoodin the middle-agedmale who the one siderubbed handsa moment ago, hurried the help, fullseveralBaoshanherbal medicineswill gripin the back seat, urgedeast the forest to sit firmlyover and over.
刚才站在一旁搓手的中年男,赶紧上来帮忙,将满满的几大包山草药扎在后座,又再三叮嘱林东要坐稳了。East the forestwent by carto transfer, Yuxi Townalmoststrolled, hereceived the Goushanherbal medicinemassively, clearing off that variousnew and oldmarketplacessold, altogetheralso2000over. ThismustinChengshi Pharmacy, the improved varietyhigh-yieldmedicinal herb that thesegreenhousesplantnot have the property of wildmedicinal herbnot saying that the valuealsodiesexpensivelydiesexpensively, this abouttenlarge packagemedicinal herbs, tens of thousandsestimatescould not have taken.
林东坐车转了一圈,玉溪镇几乎逛了个遍,他大量收购山草药,将新旧市场各处卖的一扫而光,总共也才两千出头。这要在城市药店里,那些大棚种植出来的良种高产药材没有野生药材的药性不说,价值还死贵死贵的,这近十大包药材,没有几万块估计也拿不下来。Now, east the forestonlyuses2000, had taken the larger part the medicinal herb that vigorpillneeded.
现在,林东只用两千块,就已经把活力丹所需的药材拿下了一大半。The most important thing is, the property of mountainherbal medicineis better.
最重要的是,山草药的药性更好。East the forest is very at heart satisfied.
林东心里很满意。This, came back the countrysideto receive the medicinerefine the pill of immortality the pathto walkright!
这一趟,回来乡下收药炼丹的路子走对了!
The place that althoughrunswas far, going by carto roveto be troublesomeenough, the effect of butreceivingwas good, troublesomepointalsovalue.
尽管跑的地方远了点,坐车转来转去有够麻烦的,但收到的效果不错,麻烦点也值。„Nowreturns?” The middle-agedmale was also very happy, becauseeast the forestpromised that addsmoneytohim, 20hecannotthink, buttenheestimates unable to run away. Transfersoneto maketendollars, this was too exactly relaxed!
“现在回吗?”中年男也很高兴,因为林东许诺给他加钱,二十块他不敢想,不过十块他估计跑不掉。转一圈赚个十块钱,这活太轻松了!„Returns!”East the forestlooks athimto helppositively, raiseandmovevery much, the sweatalsohad/leftone, plansto givehim100, buthas not said.
“回吧!”林东看他帮忙很积极,又提又搬的,大汗也出了一身,打算给他一百,只是没说出来。Arrived the river bendelementary school, east the foresthad not entered the school, onlyrefers to an oldbuildinginroadsidestopping.
到了河湾小学,林东没进学校,只指在路边的一幢旧楼停下。Middle-agedmalestrangesay/way: „Isn't this house of TeacherTang?”
中年男奇道:“这不是唐老师的房子吗?”TeacherTang in hismouth, iseast the forest the grandmother.
他口中的唐老师,就是林东外婆。Thisoldhouseis the grandmotherstays behind, the foresteasthigh schoolto the university, has lived at school, particularly after being admitted toDongshanUniversity, although is not very far, butdozenskilometers, are always upon the jumpverytroublesome, thereforeis usually few.

Eastforestthiscoming back, except forpurchasecamellia japonicaandmountainherbal medicinethese, but alsowantsto cherish the childhoodtime of underBurmaelapsing, ifpasses throughcontinuallyis also counted, oneselfhad‚tenyears’not to havefully.
这幢旧房子是外婆留下的,林东高中至大学,一直住校,尤其是考上东山大学之后,虽然不算很远,但总有几十公里,跑来跑去很麻烦,所以平时很少回来。外婆走了,他回来更感孤单,有时住在这空荡荡的屋子里,连个说话的人都没有,格外的压抑。林东这次回来,除了购买山茶和山草药这些,还想怀缅下逝去的童年时光,要是连穿越也算上,自己足有‘十年’没有回来了。Moreoverrefinementvigorpillandspirittea, needsto find a quietplaceto make the systemdecoction, isn't definitely goodinthatplace of renting, whobrews medicineonesharetaste to bear?
而且炼制活力丹和灵茶,也需要找一个清静的地方熬制汤药,在租的那个地方肯定不行,熬药一股子药味谁受得了?In order toprevent the landlordauntkillsto cometo warn itself, the foresteasterndecisionreturns tohere, quietlyrefinement.
为了防止房东大妈杀上门来警告自己,林东决定回到这里,悄悄炼制。
The river bendelementary schoolhas removed.
河湾小学已经撤了。
The students and teachershave merged the centralelementary school in Yuxi Town, the grandmotheroffered the lifetimeschoolfor this reason, the presentis the irongeneralguards a door.
学生和老师早就合并到玉溪镇的中心小学去,外婆为此奉献了一生的学校,现在是铁将军把门。On the front dooris rusty, inside and outside, worn-outdecadent, overgrown with weeds......
大门上铁锈斑斑,墙里墙外,破旧颓败,杂草丛生……
The smallbookbuilding that fornearerschool, the grandmotherconstructedin the pastlaboriouslyonlyhasthis solitary onebuildingonenow, is reminded of dear ones who have left, paststudentringing the reading sounddissipatesearlyin the time, changes to the eternalmemory.
为了更近学校,外婆当年辛辛苦苦建起来的小书楼现在只剩下孤楼一座,人去楼空,昔日学生的朗朗读书声早消逝在时光中,化作永恒的记忆。East the forestbystarforced induction, grandmother'saurahas dissipatedthoroughly, does not haveoneto remaininthisworld.
林东以星力感应一下,外婆的气息已经彻底消逝,在这世上没有一丝残留。Perhaps, like this diligent gardener who burnsoneselfto illuminateothersnoselfishnesslifeoffer, under the transformation of lifegoodvirtuegood fortune owing to the merits of ancestors, alreadyflying upwardsheaven, reincarnationforhappyworry-freeCelestial!
也许,像她这种燃烧自己照亮别人毫无私心一生奉献的辛勤园丁,在一生善德福荫的转化下,早已经飞升天国,转生为幸福无忧的天人了吧!„Grandmother, Iwill look afterwellmy!”East the forestdeeplyinspires, the fistgets hold, inheartsilentword: „Before Iam not, thattodestinyconfusedto the futurehelplesspitifulorphan, now, Iam capable ofbeing in control ofmydestiny. Grandmother, pleasein the space, smiling, was looking that Ilead the waywell!”
“外婆,我会好好照顾自己的!”林东深深地吸了一口气,拳头握紧,心中默言:“我再不是以前那个对命运迷茫对未来不知所措的可怜孤儿了,现在,我有能力把握自己的命运。外婆,请您在天上,微笑着,看我一路前行就好!”
The middle-agedmaleunties the string.
中年男解开绳子。Movingfullyis the bags of medicinal herb.
搬下满是药材的大包小包。Hedoes not needeast the forestto act, the directhelpshouldersin the room, whenfinds a slightlycleanplaceto put away, askedcarefully: „Whatperson are youTeacherTang?”
他根本不用林东出手,直接帮忙扛进屋里,待找个稍微干净地方放好,又小心地问:“你是唐老师什么人?”„Sheismygrandmother.”East the forestlooks athimto be warm, speaks thoughtlesslyto explainone.
“她是我外婆。”林东看他热情,随口解释一句。„Aiya, no wonderIthought that looks familiarvery much!” The middle agemaleis excitedpats the thigh: „When that yearsaw offTeacherTang, Ihave visitedyou, at that timeyouwere young, this twinklingseveralyearspassed by, yourchangewas too big, the staturegrew, Ido not dareto recognize!

“哎呀,难怪我觉得很面熟!”中年男激动得一拍大腿:“那年送别唐老师时,我看过你,那时你还小,这一眨眼就好几年过去了,你的变化太大,个子长高了许多,我都不敢认了!我?我是唐老师的学生,她当年是我们的班主任,不仅仅我,我老婆、女儿还有儿子,我们一家子全是她老人家的学生。哎呀,别提钱,别提钱,你是唐老师的外孙,我哪能收你的车钱,当年家里没钱交学费,是她老人家硬把我自山沟沟里给带出来的,还拿工资帮我垫支过学费呢……”„This, how did the unclecall?”East the forestasked the middle-agedmaleto sit.
“这样啊,那大叔怎么称呼?”林东请中年男坐下来。
