I really don't want to be a teacher

He handed the last piece of barbecue in the bag to the greedy little white mouse. With a wave of his hand, the bag and the remaining roasting sticks in the bag fell into the trash can not far away.

Turning his gaze again, Lian Ge looked at the boy in front of him who was still bowing his head,

"He's gone. Do you have any questions?"

With a calm tone, Lian Ge said something out loud.

I don't know whether he heard the first half of Lian Ge's sentence or the second half, the boy shrank and dodged, and slowly raised his head,

After looking at Lian Ge, he turned his head a little bit, and looked at the street behind him,

Seemingly seeing no one on the street looking sideways, the boy raised his head again,

Turned around again, looked at Lian Ge, and then at the words written on the white cloth in front of the booth,

"...I'll just sit down and I'll go right away...I..."

The boy spoke first, then gradually stopped talking, raised his head, and then looked at Lian Ge while dodging.

"... Can you ask me anything?"

It seemed that Lian Ge's eyes didn't change. The boy raised his head and shrank his body. His eyes didn't dodge as much as before. Looking at Lian Ge, he couldn't help asking again,

Immediately followed, and added a sentence,

"...How much does it cost?"

"Ten dollars."

Lian Ge's tone was calm, he looked at the boy, and said something aloud.

Hearing the sound, the boy couldn't help covering his left pocket, sat up straighter, looked at Lian Ge,

"...Is beauty and ugliness really that important?"

"... My face, can it be cured?"

He asked a question first, followed by asking another question, and looked at Lian Ge nervously.

Turning his gaze, Lian Ge glanced at the boy again,

On the boy's face, the mask he was originally wearing was now stained with dust from the cartoon pattern. After being put on in a panic by the boy earlier, it was wrinkled, barely covering the bridge of the nose and mouth, exposing the chin and eye sockets.

On the chin, on the skin that should have been rosy, there were black spots scattered on the skin, extending from the exposed chin to the cover of the mask, and seemed to extend from under the mask, spreading to the Under the eye sockets not covered by the mask,

And the places where there are large or small black spots are not only the color like birthmarks, but also the skin covered by the spots is like goose bumps, where there seems to be sweat pores, there are little pimples standing, hair wrinkle.

As if sensing that Lian Ge was looking at his face, the boy flinched and dodged a little, followed closely, then hesitated, then stretched out his hand, and pulled off the mask,

"...My face is like this, can it be cured?"

The eyes became more and more tense, as if he wanted to avoid unconsciously, but he was holding on. The boy trembled all over, looked at Lian Ge, and asked again.

Under the mask that the boy tore off, from under the eye sockets to under the chin, there were plaques all over the whole face, and some scattered good skin mixed in between the plaques, making the whole face They all look a little mottled.

It's not scary, but it's different from ordinary people.

"It can be cured."

Looking at the boy again, Lian Ge said in a calm tone,

"But do you still have to ask your first question?"

"Can it be cured?"

There was some hope in the boy's eyes, he looked at Lian Ge nervously, and asked again.

It seemed that after hearing the second half of Lian Ge's words again, the boy gradually lowered his head and fell silent.

……

"...When I was young, I remembered things very early."

After a while of silence, the boy lowered his head again and said aloud,

"...When other people went to kindergarten, my parents didn't send me there... I was sent to join the kindergarten when everyone else was in the big class..."

"...at the beginning, my mother made me wear a mask... I saw that no one else in the school had a mask, so I asked my mother why I had to wear a mask... My mother didn't say anything..."

"...Later I found out, because my parents felt that I was different from other people..."

"... On the first day, someone asked me why I was wearing a mask all the time, and I didn't know how to answer... On the second day, after my mother sent me to school, I quietly took off the mask That day, my classmates surrounded me curiously...because I was different from them...they asked me why my face was like this...I told them that I was born like this... We still play together... a lot of people think my face is very interesting... I made a lot of friends..."

"...then, the kindergarten teacher told my classmates not to discriminate against me...then, the next day...nobody played with me anymore...everyone avoided me...they were afraid of me , despise me... Some people say I am a monster, only monsters can do this... Some people say, I will turn them into monsters too...I want to play with them...They pushed me to the ground..."

"...And then, I transferred to another school... But it happens every time, as long as they see my face under the mask, they will be afraid of me, dislike me, disgust me... My mother is right, I should Wear a mask, wear a mask all the time..."

"...Before, when I was still young. My grandma and the others said that I did something bad in my previous life, and that this life will be like this. They took me to the temple and burned incense for the Bodhisattva...and said that I would be fine... "

"... Grandma was scolded by my parents... My parents said, when I save money, I will take me to the hospital for surgery, so that I can be cured and be like everyone else... At that time, I Only then did I realize that I was sick..."

He didn't say whether to ask the first question, the boy just lowered his head and narrated, the lower his lowered head, the lower his voice,

"...A month ago... I transferred to my current school... Shu Yue also said that she wanted to come out to play with me... She just wanted to see my jokes... I heard it all, many people were watching me Behind my back, I have been wearing a mask, saying that my face under the mask...she just wants to see my jokes, just wants to see my jokes..."

Lowering his head further, the boy gradually stopped talking.

After another moment of silence, the boy raised his head again and looked at Lian Ge, with some hope in his eyes, nervously,

"...can you cure me, cure my face?"

"...How much does it cost?"

Listening to the boy's words, Lian Ge turned his eyes again, looked at the boy, looked at the hope in the boy's eyes, nervous, and a little scared.

Chapter 799

on the riverside street,

Bustling pedestrians walked by, but they seemed unaware of the stall on the side of the road.

In front of the stalls, street lights reflect the branches and leaves of trees on the street, as well as the shadows of people under the lights.

The shadows of the branches and leaves on the ground swayed slightly with the gusts of breeze, disturbing the lights that swayed through the gaps in the branches and leaves.

Sitting in front of the booth, the boy's eyes were tense, with some hope, fear, trembling slightly, looking at Lian Ge, as if waiting for Lian Ge's answer.

Seeing that Lian Ge didn't answer for a long time, the hope in the boy's eyes gradually dimmed, and he lowered his head gradually.

"can."

Looking at the boy again, Lian Ge's tone was calm, and he spoke again.

"I'll charge you another five dollars."

"Really... Thank you, thank you!"

The boy raised his head again, his eyes sparkled, he was grateful again, looked at Lian Ge and said,

"thanks, thanks……"

"...Then, then..."

The boy looked at Lian Ge again, his whole body was trembling, his eyes were full of hope, he became more nervous, and the mask he was still holding was clenched even tighter.

Sitting behind the booth, looking at the boy again, Lian Ge raised his hand and waved at the boy,

"It will gradually fade away the dark spots on your face, and the skin will gradually become like the rest of the face."

Withdrawing his hand, Lian Ge's tone was calm, and he spoke again.

"... Then my face will get better again..."

As if feeling the change on his face, the boy looked hopeful, a little nervous, and afraid, and then raised his hand that was holding the mask tightly, as if he wanted to touch his face, but stopped again.

"I will, I will."

With a calm tone, he looked at the boy and said something again.

The boy's eyes grew more hopeful, with some anticipation, but Lian Ge's voice seemed to be drifting away from his ears.

The fundus of the eyes was a little dazed at first, and the eyelids seemed to be a little silent. The boy gradually closed his eyes,

Sitting on the stool, gradually lowered his head.

He buried his head, as if he had fallen asleep.

……

"...Huh? Why did I fall asleep?"

Opening his eyes again, the boy raised his head and sat up with some doubts in his eyes.

Lian Ge behind the booth has disappeared, only the white cloth with some words written on it is left on the ground.

The street lamps swayed the shadows of branches and leaves reflected by the lights, on the white cloth, swaying slightly with the wind.

Turning around, the boy looked around behind him,

On the street, pedestrians are bustling, and a little distance away is a street vendor selling some snacks.

Turning his head, there was some doubt in his eyes at first, and then he saw the white cloth with some words written on it spread on the booth.

As if thinking of the previous incident, the boy was a little happy at first, then raised his hand, as if he wanted to touch his face, followed closely, and stopped his movement again.

"...my face is getting better, it's getting better..."

As he spoke, the boy had hope and anticipation in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face.

Standing up from the booth again, looking at the empty booth,

After a pause, the boy stretched out his hands and groped in his pockets,

He took out ten yuan from the left pocket, and found five yuan in the remaining trouser pocket.

Holding the money in his hand, he looked at the money in his hand, and then at the stall in front of him. The boy bent down, picked up a stone from the side of the road, put the money on the stall, and pressed it with the stone. ,

Looking back again, the boy turned around,

Towards the bustling pedestrians on the street, the boy is going forward,

He just moved half a step forward, then stopped again.

Looking at the bustling pedestrians on the street, the boy raised his hand again, still clutching the dusty mask,

Looking at the mask, then at the pedestrians walking on the street,

The boy raised his hand and put the mask on his face again before joining the crowd and walking forward.

……

"Squeak, squeak..."

The breeze swayed the street lamps and swayed some lights, which were reflected on the ground, and the shadows of branches and leaves on people under the lights.

Spreading out the book in his hand again, Lian Ge casually flipped through it.

On the shoulders, the little white mouse that had finished fighting the last barbeque was still holding the barbecue stick, standing on its forelimbs, turning its head, and looking around.

Turning his gaze, Lian Ge glanced at the boy in front of the booth, with his head buried, who had already fallen asleep,

Turning his gaze again, he glanced at the little white mouse on his shoulder,

With a wave of his hand, the barbecue skewer that the little white mouse was still holding fell into the trash can not far away, and some oil stains on his hair slid off like dust.

Looking back, Lian Ge opened another page of the book in his hand, flipping through it casually.

The little white mouse stood upright on its shoulders, turned its head, and looked around at the sleeping boy in front of the booth.

……

"...I'm back, are you having fun with your classmates?"

The door in front of the boy was opened, and the boy's mother appeared behind the door,

Looking at the boy, she seemed to see some dust on the boy's mask. The boy's mother seemed to froze, but she still smiled and asked the boy.

The boy raised his head and looked at his mother, without saying a word, just walked into the house.

"...it's dinner... Mom just made dinner."

The boy's mother closed the door, then turned her head, smiled and said to the boy,

"...Mom, go and bring the dishes out of the kitchen. Xiao Bing, go wash your hands. After washing your hands, let's eat."
