I really don't want to be a teacher

The dragon boat gradually left the shore,

"...Damn it, Lao Chen and those guys came out to practice so early... It's okay, let's not compete with them now, let's practice our own first, so we can save some effort...Let them practice hard, wait I will see how they win when the people run out of strength..."

It seemed that a dragon boat was rowed out from a platform on the other side of the river, and the middle-aged man in front of the dragon boat was cursing and yelling again,

The dragon boat gradually moved closer to the center of the river.

On the river bank, some tourists and pedestrians stopped, watching another dragon boat rowing out, they were full of interest, watching, chatting lively.

Listening to the voices in my ears, and then looking at the sparkling, broad river,

Lian Ge turned his gaze a little further, followed the bank of the river, and looked towards a place with no people in the distance.

The empty place, leaning against the railing of the river bank,

Standing a middle-aged man,

The middle-aged man has long hair, wears a white robe, and has a pair of cloth shoes on his feet.

Standing facing the river, looking up at the river,

I don't know whether to look at the dragon boat on the river or the people on the other side of the river.

Silent, without any movement for a long time, just turning his gaze slightly, as if in a daze,

Behind the middle-aged man, from time to time, there are some pedestrians passing by in a hurry or slowly, and some people stop not far from there,

But no one cast their eyes on the middle-aged man.

At this moment,

The middle-aged man with long hair in a white robe seemed to notice Lian Ge's gaze,

Turning his gaze away, he lowered his body slightly towards Lian Ge, smiled and nodded.

Looking at the middle-aged man, Lian Ge also nodded,

He moved his foot away and walked towards the position where the middle-aged man was.

On Lian Ge's shoulder, the little white mouse who was eating the steamed bun also raised his head, looked at the middle-aged man, then lowered his head, and continued to hold the steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth.

……

"sough……"

On the side of the street behind the middle-aged man, there is a tree with outstretched branches and leaves,

The breeze that came ashore disturbed the branches and leaves of the trees, making some rustling sounds.

Lian Ge walked to the side of the middle-aged man not far away. The middle-aged man had turned his head again, as before, facing the river, staring at the river with some ecstasy.

Stopping again, Lian Ge took another look at the middle-aged man in a white robe with long hair, staring at the river in a daze,

Without saying anything, Lian Ge turned around again and looked at the wide river.

On the surface of the river, there are gusts of cool breeze, and the river water is rippling, reflecting the sparkling light.

Practicing, the two dragon boats preparing for the noon race approached on the river,

Although the leader of the previous boat said it was not close, but waiting for the two dragon boats to draw closer,

It's still you chasing each other, wishing to overwhelm the other party, attracting some pedestrians and tourists who stopped on the shore to shout and cheer.

It's just that the sun is getting higher and higher, after a while,

Waiting for the third dragon boat to appear on the river, they separated a little and practiced separately.

The shadows of the branches and leaves of the trees on the roadside are gradually changing positions,

Several dragon boats practicing on the river either go back and forth on the river, or stop from time to time to rest and have some breakfast.

On the river bank, tourists and pedestrians who knew from time to time that it would be some time before the start of the dragon boat race went to other places one after another.

From time to time, some pedestrians who passed by stopped, and tourists who watched the excitement came,

The more dragon boats go back and forth in the river,

There are more and more tourists and pedestrians standing on the shore,

Mobile vendors selling snacks also parked their stalls on the bank of the river, greeting customers who stopped in front of the stalls.

Behind Lian Ge and the middle-aged man, the streets were bustling with people coming and going,

But no one looked sideways at Lian Ge and the middle-aged man,

It seemed that passers-by and those who stopped were unaware of Lian Ge and the middle-aged man.

Chapter 991 Dragon Boat

"...Honey, let's go and watch the dragon boat race, shall we?"

"it is good!"

"...Mom, isn't dragon boat racing just..."

The sun, which is gradually rising to the top, is in the sky, and the sun is shining slightly downward,

The shade reflected by the branches and leaves of some trees near the side of the road has shrunk, and the shade of the shops facing the street on the other side has been pushed to the eaves of the shops.

Some passers-by on the shore, either squeezed under the shade of trees that can no longer cover people, or slightly blocked the sun above their heads with their hands,

But not many people left again. They walked away a little, and they just walked to the eaves of the shops facing the street to rest in the cool.

People from all over the place stopped at the shore, and more and more people gathered on the shore.

Parked on the side of the road, the stalls selling some refreshing snacks, the business is even better.

……

Standing on the shore, beside the stone fence,

Lian Ge listened to the lively sounds in his ears, looked at the wide river in the river,

Glittering on the river,

From time to time, oars cut through the water, causing some ripples,

There are already several dragon boats on the river,

Or close to the river bank, take advantage of some green shade on the river bank, and simply rest.

Or still in the middle of the river, chanting chant and practicing intermittently,

From time to time, gusts of fresh wind come ashore from the river surface, roll up some water vapor, disperse some of the heat waves on the shore, and disturb the skirts of some people standing on the shore,

Then slightly shake the willow branches next to the river street, the shadows of the branches and leaves on the ground.

"Sir, do you come to watch the dragon boat race every year?"

Without turning his head, Lian Ge looked at the river and said something calmly.

Next to him, the middle-aged man with long hair in a white robe, cloth shoes, paused for a while after listening to Lian Ge's words.

"Most of the time, I would come to have a look. At the beginning, my mood was inevitably sad and complicated. Later, I just wanted to see things that were still related to the past. Later, I just wanted to see the people rowing and the people on the shore... ..."

The middle-aged man nodded slightly, still looking at the river, his tone didn't fluctuate too much, and calmly responded to Lian Ge's words.

Listening, nodded, Lian Ge didn't say anything more, and looked at the sparkling river again.

Next to him, the middle-aged man did not continue to speak, and fell silent.

As before, standing, looking at the river, seems to be a little lost.

behind the two,

On the shore, on the walking path already stained with some people,

The bustling pedestrians were still moving slowly, as if they were looking for a place with fewer people.

"...Mom, have you watched dragon boat races many times?"

"...No, Mom has only seen it once or twice..."

"...Didn't the teacher say that there is a Dragon Boat Festival every year...Mom, is it the Dragon Boat Festival today?"

"...It's the Dragon Boat Festival."

A child walked up to his mother, turned his head from time to time, raised his head, and asked his mother,

The child's mother smiled, responded, and walked behind Lian Ge with her child.

"...It should start soon. The dragon boats parked on the bank of this river seem to have been rowed out..."

"...Boys, this is the first time you come to our place to watch the dragon boat race... It will take a while. After noon, the dragon boat race will start...but it won't be long..."

On the bank of the river, more and more people have gathered, crowded on the bank of the river, occupying the sidewalk of the street,

Coupled with some mobile stalls parked on the side of the street, most of the entire street was occupied.

Either huddling on the shore, or waiting in the shade under the eaves of the shops facing the street across the street, some people who have already stopped,

Or eating some freshly bought snacks, looking up at the river from time to time,

Or acquaintances talking to each other, or fiddling with mobile phones.

A young man on the bank raised his head, passed the crowded crowd, looked towards the river, and said aloud,

The one next to him seemed to be an old man nearby, he laughed and said something out loud.

All kinds of voices were mixed and noisy.

Stopping on the side of the street, the vendors with their stalls are busy greeting customers,

The child picked up by his parents pointed to the dragon boat on the river, and some shouted joyfully,

"...Mom, look, it's a dragon boat...it's a dragon boat..."

……

"...Give me a hard time when the game starts...Look, there are so many people watching from both sides of the bank..."

According to the dragon boat that is closer to the bank on this side, the leader raised his head and looked at the crowded pedestrians and tourists on the bank.

Then he yelled at the oarsmen on the dragon boat,

"... Lao Yu, don't worry... This dragon boat race, who doesn't work hard... Boy, if you lose this time, I will beat you up when I go back..."

"... Lao Yu, don't worry... when the time comes, Lao Chen and Lao Dong will definitely be left behind..."

The people on the dragon boat responded with a smile, each wiped the sweat from their foreheads,

Take the oars again, and the oars cut the river again,

"...Let's start soon..."

"...It's almost there, let's go too..."

Just when the sky was empty, the sun gradually moved further, lengthening the shade reflected by the branches and leaves of the trees on the shore,

The dragon boat that was closer to the bank on this side gradually moved away from the bank and rowed towards the middle of the river.

Several other dragon boats in the river gradually began to move closer to the middle of the river.

"...It's about to start, it's about to start..."

"...Finally it's time to start, the sun makes me sweat all over..."

The people on the shore saw several dragon boats on the river gradually approaching and stopping in parallel.

The shore became more noisy and lively.

……

"Sir, did you pass by here?"

"Going on a trip, passing by here."

On the bank of the river, there are no people.

The people around seemed to be unaware of Lian Ge and the middle-aged man, but unconsciously avoided their place,

Standing, looking at the river, the middle-aged man was in a trance for a while, and he didn't look back, and spoke again.

Without turning his eyes away, Lian Ge calmly replied.
