I really don't want to be a teacher

In front of the tombstone, after that, it became quiet again, only the breeze blowing by from time to time,

……

As night fell, the old man who sat in front of the tombstone for a long time looked at the tombstone,

"Sometimes, it's really hard to live... But you have to live anyway, right..."

Groping, the old man groped, stooped, stood up again,

"I'll go first, next time... come see you next time."

As he spoke, the stooped figure of the old man gradually merged into the night.

Chapter 235 Never go back

"...Sir, this is the deposit refunded to you. You are welcome to stay in our hotel next time."

The next morning, at the front desk of the hotel,

The front desk clerk returned the deposit to Lian Ge, took it with his hand, and put it in his pocket casually. Lian Ge turned around, moved his feet, and walked towards the outside of the hotel.

……

Stepping out of the hotel, the sunshine from the rising sun will pass through the front of the hotel, and the dense branches and leaves of the roadside trees will sway on the body.

The hustle and bustle of the city rang in my ears again,

On the road, the traffic is surging, pedestrians are in a hurry, or talking to each other, walking,

On the bus platform across the road, a bus just stopped, and the people waiting at the platform swarmed past.

Students with schoolbags, young people with mobile phones, talking to each other, old lady who seems to be going to the vegetable market,

……

Scanning the hustle and bustle of the street, Lian Ge paused slightly,

Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge moved away and walked towards the opposite bus sign.

……

"... Lian Ge, Lian Ge... little brother? Can you hear me? Did you leave the hotel?"

Gu Xiaoying's voice came from the earphones still on her ears,

"can hear."

While moving his footsteps, while listening to Gu Xiaoying's voice on the other end of the phone, Lian Ge smiled slightly and answered,

"... Lian Ge, are you planning to leave Chang'an today?"

"It's been a while, and it's time to go."

While talking, Lian Ge walked to the bus stop sign across the street,

After the bus passed by just now, the number of people waiting on the platform has decreased. There are only a few young people holding mobile phones and looking at the intersection from time to time, and old people carrying cloth bags and talking to each other.

"... Then, Lian Ge, where are you going?"

"Student Gu Xiaoying always asks this question, do you have any suggestions?" Smiling, Lian Ge glanced at some people waiting at the bus stop, and said aloud,

"Suggestion..." Gu Xiaoying seemed to be in high spirits, thinking about it enthusiastically,

"... Lian Ge, you are in Chang'an now... Let me open the map to see how the mountain city is... Well, how about Jingchu Province, Lian Ge, you go in this direction, all the way to the coastal area, it is said that the coastal area, With the popularity of Fengshui fortune-telling, maybe Lian Ge, you can meet a few real practitioners with real mana... It seems that it would be good to go to the Central Plains... Lian Ge, you can choose yourself."

Listening to Gu Xiaoying's voice in the earphones, Lian Ge couldn't help smiling,

"...So, Lian Ge, where are you going..."

"It's the same as before, it doesn't matter where you go."

"Then you still ask me, heh, man... I'm angry!"

……

Standing by the bus stop, Lian Ge was talking to Gu Xiaoying, while looking at the pedestrians, vehicles, bustling streets, and the city in the distance,

Not long after, two more buses stopped at the platform.

After sweeping his eyes, Lian Ge moved his feet and stepped on a bus with fewer people.

"... Passengers on board, please move to the rear of the carriage... Please give up your seat to the passengers who need help beside you..."

Although there are fewer people, there are still no empty seats in the bus. Many passengers are standing, leaning, and crowded in the compartment.

The radio in the car is mixed with the voices of passengers talking, in the car, it is noisy, noisy,

Randomly stopping by the door in the middle of the carriage, Lian Ge turned his gaze, looked out of the window through the car window,

Outside the window, the buildings beside the street, and the figures of pedestrians passing by in front of them,

Inside the car, the noisy voice rang in my ears,

"... I will go to school in a while, listen to the teacher carefully, and after school is over, my mother will come to pick you up, you know?"

"Got it, got it... I said I don't need you to give it to me, and others don't have to ask my parents to give it to me. They will definitely laugh at me in a while..."

……

"...I went to the vegetable market yesterday to buy vegetables, and Er Vitex rose by another [-] cents... No, everything has gone up so much now... Hey, by the way, didn't your son graduate this year, did he find a job?"

"...I really have to wait for the old ones, serve the young ones, and cook for them every day. I still can't afford a good one. You said...yesterday, people disliked me for not pouring out the leftovers from the night before... ...You said I won't let you eat it, right? If you don't eat it, I can't do it..."

"...Old Chen, when will your daughter get married? I'll come to ask for a wedding drink then."

……

"... Lian Ge, I seem to understand the feeling of your travels."

In the earphone, Gu Xiaoying's voice sounded again,

"...Through earphones, listening to these voices, I seem to have heard all kinds of beings...different people, different things..."

Listening to the voice in the car and what Gu Xiaoying said in the earphone, Lian Ge smiled slightly and didn't say much.

Gu Xiaoying on the other end of the phone didn't speak anymore.

The people on both ends of the phone just listened quietly.

……

Buses stop and go, passengers board or get off, come and go, changing batch after batch,

From more people to fewer people in the car, from hustle and bustle to calmness again,

Traveling to the first few stops near the bus terminal, Lian Ge was the only passenger left in the car, and the huge car seemed empty.

"...Brother, it's almost time to arrive at the bus stop. Do you want to get off after entering the bus stop, or get off right outside the bus stop?"

The driver of the bus yelled at Lian Ge behind the carriage,

"Just get down here."

Glancing at the road outside the car window, Lian Ge stood up from his seat.

……

After getting off the bus, Lian Ge also ended the phone call with Gu Xiaoying,

Stamp your feet slightly,

Not far in front of you, on the other side of the road is the bus terminal.

The location of the bus station is already at the edge of the city.

Turning around, Lian Ge moved his footsteps again, and walked along the road towards the outside of Chang'an City.

……

Along the way, the buildings beside the road became lower and sparser, and the number of pedestrians and vehicles decreased.

The bustling and bustling city is behind us, drifting away,

The continuous mountains that have disappeared in the distance are in front of me, approaching again,

Looking around, the hustle and bustle of the city gradually faded away and became more and more quiet.

……

From early morning to noon, until the morning sun turns into the setting sun, slanting towards the horizon.

One person and one mouse, keep moving forward along the road,

On the side, people are gradually thinning out, and the sound of vehicles passing by is gradually replaced by insects and birds.

……

Once again, there is a mountain covered with vegetation in front of you. The road under your feet is winding, coiling around the hills, and stretching to the depths of the mountains.

"Chirp..."

"sough……"

Insects and birds hide in the dense branches and leaves, singing, the breeze disturbs the branches and leaves of the mountain forest, and also disturbs, outside the road, the mountains in the distance surround the clouds in the valley,

Under the cover of the mountain peaks beside me, the sun that is close to the horizon is blocked, and the nearby area looks dim, while the distant place is still shining under the reflection of the sunset glow,

On the road, there have been no vehicles passing by for a long time, only a few pedestrians carrying baskets cast their eyes on Lian Ge from time to time,

Looking at the mountain scenery near and far away, Lian Ge smiled slightly, moved his feet, and continued to walk along the winding mountain road towards the depths of the mountains.

……

Mountains and forests are bypassed, and there are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road.

The setting sun gradually sank into the horizon, and the sky gradually became dark, only the sunset glow in the west still swayed some light,

Facing the night that gradually enveloped the rolling hills, Lian Ge walked forward along the winding mountain road step by step,

round another hill,

Night has fallen, and the night has completely submerged the mountains and forests in the distance.

A voice sounded from not far away and reached Lian Ge's ear,

"...It's not my fault, why should I be wronged, why should I be beaten...

I'm never going back, never going back..."

Chapter 236 Running away from home

The voice is crying, the tone is very wronged, it is the voice of a small child,

Immediately following the sound, at the corner of the winding mountain road, behind the hills that blocked the view, a low-profile figure appeared in sight,

The boy, who looked about eleven or twelve years old, was wearing a padded jacket on his upper body and trousers on his lower body. His body was stained with dust, and he wore a pair of dirty old shoes on his feet.

Crying, talking with grievances, while holding his head, walking towards the front of the road,

Tears kept pouring out of his eyes, and dripped down his flushed face. On that face, there was still a faint slap print that hadn't dissipated.

"...I will never go back, never go home again!"

The little boy walked past Lian Ge with his head sullen, as if he didn't care, or didn't pay attention to Lian Ge beside the road.

……

Looking at the little boy, Lian Ge paused his eyes slightly, watching the little boy walking away with his head sullen and disappearing from sight, Lian Ge turned his gaze away,

Turning around, Lian Ge looked at the winding mountain road, paused, then moved forward again,

And at this moment,

"...It's not my fault, why should I be wronged, why should I be beaten...I will never go back..."

The little boy who disappeared on the winding mountain road behind Lian Ge appeared again in front of Lian Ge, just like before, walked out from the corner,

"...I will never go back, never go home again!"

With his head sullen and crying, the little boy walked past Lian Ge again.
