I really don't want to be a teacher

"Squeak, squeak..."

"...Hey, master, you have been walking for so long, do you want to take a rest, and I will treat you to a meal in the next city in a while."

Inside the car, the driver was talking attentively, and Lian Ge responded casually.

As time passed, the truck kept approaching Lin'an.

Chapter 113

"Master, I will arrive in Lin'an in a while. When I arrive, I will treat you to dinner."

On the highway, the small truck is driving at a high speed,

Inside the car, the truck driver spoke aloud from time to time.

Hearing the sound, Lian Ge glanced at the truck driver, shook his head,

"You don't need to eat, it's the same as before, just find a place for me to get off."

After speaking, Lian Ge turned his gaze back and continued to look out the window.

At this moment, after several hours of travel, the time has passed from afternoon to night, and night has enveloped the land.

And under the night, the city in the distance is gradually approaching.

The city lit up by thousands of lights is like the stars gathered in the starry sky, reflecting each other and reflecting the prosperity of the city.

"How can I do that, master, if you hadn't saved me, I would have died long ago. I didn't have the chance before, but now I finally met, master, you must let me express my gratitude." The driver turned his head and said.

Hearing this, Lian Ge didn't look back, still looking at the distant city outside the window, shaking his head.

"Master..." Seeing this, the truck driver hesitated for a while, but seeing Lian Ge's firm attitude, he didn't press anymore.

"Then master, if we meet again next time, you have to let me treat you to a meal, thank you very much."

Hearing this, Lian Ge turned around, smiled and nodded,

"By the way, master, my family lives just outside the city of LA. If you have time, you must come to my house and let me treat you well. My old man also believes in it. He will be very happy when you come. With that said, the driver paused slightly,

"Master, sit still, it's time to get off the highway."

……

After a while, the pickup truck gradually decelerated on the deceleration ramp, turned slowly, left the expressway from the expressway, and drove towards the city.

"Master, my car can only go on the main road. You see where you are going. I will help you find a car and take you there."

On the main road in the city, a truck was driving, and the truck driver asked Lian Ge politely.

Hearing this, Lian Ge shook his head.

"Get down wherever you want."

Hearing that, the truck driver didn't insist anymore,

"Master, why don't you just get off at the next corner, and walk in the other direction from there, which is Lin'an West Lake. Tonight, Master, you can stay in a nearby hotel first, and you can go to the West Lake tomorrow."

Hearing this, Lian Ge nodded,

"It's troublesome."

"No trouble, no trouble." The truck driver shook his head quickly and said.

……

Soon, the truck stopped slowly beside the intersection road.

"Master, this is my business card. It has my number and my home address on it. If you come near my home, Master, you must call me and let me do my best as a landlord."

The truck driver took out a business card from the roof fender, and solemnly handed it to Lian Ge with both hands.

After glancing at it, Lian Ge reached out to take it, put the business card in his pocket, and nodded.

"Crack."

Without staying any longer, Lian Ge pushed open the passenger door, jumped lightly, and got out of the car.

"Master, go slowly. It's not convenient to park here, so I'll go first." The truck driver poked his head out from the door and shouted at Lian Ge.

Hearing the sound, Lian Ge nodded.

Then, the door of the truck closed and drove away slowly.

……

Watching the pickup truck disappear from sight, Lian Ge looked away, shook his head with a smile,

Turning around, Lian Ge glanced at the city of LA within sight.

Although it has entered the night, the urban area of ​​LA is still lively. On the main road, vehicles pass by from time to time.

On the sidewalks on both sides of the main road, there are crowds of people, either young people who have just got off work, or old people who go out for a walk after dinner, or couples snuggling up and shopping.

The shops facing the street are still brightly lit, and the waiters and salespersons in the shops are enthusiastically attracting customers.

Mobile vendors selling fruit and snacks stopped at the intersection, using their horns to repeatedly announce their existence...

Looking at a corner of this bustling city, Lian Ge paused slightly.

After scanning some of the shops upstairs and the hotel signboards erected on the top of the towering buildings, Lian Ge looked away.

Instead of finding a hotel to rest, Lian Ge glanced at the signs at the intersection, followed the direction of some crowds, and walked towards the shore of West Lake.

"... How do you sell this watermelon... Big sister, don't worry about my watermelon, it's guaranteed to be sweet."

"Dad, I want to eat barbecue... OK, I'll buy it for you, but let's make an agreement to eat less, and don't tell your mother."

"Sir, there is an event in the store today, and there are big rewards for the opening, do you want to come in and see if there is anything you like..."

Along the way, the hustle and bustle of the city can be heard endlessly, adding a bit of human fireworks to the whole city, and at the same time showing the various forms of sentient beings.

Lian Ge walked unhurriedly towards the shore of the West Lake, while listening to the commotion around him.

The little white mouse squatting on the shoulder, like Lian Ge, observed this strange city.Turn your head from time to time.

In this way, one person and one mouse approached the West Lake.

……

Half an hour later, by the shore of West Lake.

Even though night fell, the early lanterns still illuminated both sides of the West Lake.

Many tourists still visit the West Lake.

Stopping on the shore of West Lake, I looked at the boats floating on the lake, and at the bustling tourists gathered in the scenic spot of the broken bridge in the distance.

Instead of joining in the fun, Lian Ge just walked along the shore of the West Lake without haste, like willows on the shore, feeling the evening breeze blowing from the lake from time to time, carrying a trace of water vapor.

The surface of the lake rippled from time to time, and the willow branches swayed gently by the lake. Although there were still voices coming from the surrounding distance from time to time, the hustle and bustle was fading away, replaced by rare silence.

Just like that, after walking along the shore of West Lake for a while, Lian Ge stomped his feet again.

Looking at the side of the West Lake, a bench beside the road, Lian Ge paused his sight.

On that wooden bench, an old lady was sitting quietly, gazing at the surface of West Lake without saying a word.

After a slight pause, after looking sideways at him, Lian Ge walked towards the wooden bench.

……

Walking closer, Lian Ge took another look at the old man.

The old man's hair was completely white, and his silver hair was combed neatly. His clothes were neat and his button collar was meticulous.

Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge glanced at the empty seat next to the old lady, walked a few steps to the side, and Lian Ge sat down on the other side of the bench.

Between you and the old lady, leave enough space.

While Lian Ge was doing all this, the old lady was still staring at the distant West Lake, without turning her head or moving her eyes, as if she didn't notice it.

Lian Ge glanced at the old lady, then at the side of the old lady,

After a pause, Lian Ge looked away, took out the book, held it in his hand and flipped through it.

"Whoa..."

Accompanied by the sound of pages being turned, the evening wind from the lake in the distance blows from time to time, and the surroundings gradually become quieter.

And the old lady was still looking at the West Lake in the distance, dazed.

……

After a long time, the night became much darker.

The old lady sitting on the wooden bench finally looked away, and slowly turned her head to look at Lian Ge who was sitting on the other side.

"Young man, are you here to visit the West Lake?" the old lady looked at Lian Ge and asked.

Hearing the sound, Lian Ge paused slightly.

"That's it."

Smiling, Lian Ge closed the book, looked at the old lady and the figure beside her, and nodded.

"Then you should walk more to see more scenery." The old lady smiled and said to Lian Ge,

"This West Lake has ten sceneries. From the Broken Bridge to the Leifeng Pagoda, each has its own merits. The trees on Sugong Embankment, the bells of Jingci Temple, and the lotus flowers in front of Yuefei Temple..."

Chapter 114 Umbrella

"Old lady, you should have been to West Lake many times."

Putting away the book, Lian Ge asked with a smile.

"Yes, I have been here many times." The old lady smiled and continued,

"When I was young, I worked here, and now I live near here when I'm old. Young man, did you come from somewhere else, just to see the West Lake?"

"What do you think, old lady?

"I don't think it looks like it. The tourists who come here for fun are all over there now."

The old lady turned her head and gestured to the tourists gathered on the broken bridge in the distance.

Hearing this, Lian Ge smiled, glanced at the direction of the broken bridge in the distance, then looked back at the old lady,

"What about you, old lady?"

"My, I'm getting tired of seeing the scenery of the West Lake. It's not convenient for my legs and feet when I'm old, so I don't want to squeeze in those places." The old lady replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Lian Ge nodded, then glanced at the figure sitting beside the old lady,

Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge looked towards the front side of the West Lake,

"The old lady, what were you watching just now? Would you mind telling me about it?"

"The young man is quite curious."

The old lady smiled, then turned her head and looked at the West Lake in the distance,

"But there's nothing you can't talk about."

The old lady looked at the surface of West Lake and explained:

"Actually, I'm not looking at anything. I'm looking for something. I'm looking for something buried by the West Lake for more than 50 years."

"Did you find the old lady?"

"I can't find it, I can't find it."

The old lady shook her head, "In the past 50 years, the mountains have changed, and the water has also changed. The things that were buried on the edge of the West Lake may now be at the bottom of the West Lake."

"Can you tell me what it is? Maybe I can help you find it, old lady." Lian Ge looked at the lake and said with a smile.

Hearing this, the old lady turned her head to look at Lian Ge, then turned back again,

"It's an umbrella, an oil-paper umbrella."

Hearing this, Lian Ge nodded, but didn't answer,
