"What's fuzzy?"

Du Yenian was a little tired from talking, and suddenly smelled a smell of paste. He moved his nose and turned to look at the kitchen.

"My face!"

Li Shang quickly got up and ran to the kitchen, he forgot that he was still cooking.He quickly turned off the fire, opened the lid of the pot, and there were only dry-stir-fried noodles stuck to the bottom of the pot, and all the water was evaporated.

Forget it, don't eat now.

Li Shang came out with a bitter face and explained the situation to the two of them.

"You haven't eaten yet? Why don't you eat first, and we won't bother you." Du Yenian said.

"No, no, it's okay to eat later. I want to know more about my dad. I really can't imagine that when he was young, he would do things that didn't fit his image. Of course, I'm not What I mean by complaining about you is that I am very surprised." Li Shang waved his hand with an unbelievable look.

"It's no surprise. Every boy has wildness in his heart. It's just that we released it a little earlier, right, Mei Ling." Du Yenian smiled and turned to another man who hadn't spoken yet. Said.

Du Yenian talked for another two hours. The scattered memories made Li Shang seem to have seen Li Tang's junior high school career with his own eyes. Except for the first year of junior high school, they didn't know anything about Li Tang in the second and third year of junior high school. They were all turned upside down by Du Yenian.

After personally sending the two of them downstairs, Li Shang turned and went upstairs.

"Why didn't you say a word?" Du Yenian sat in the driver's seat and drove, puzzled by Mei Ling's anomaly tonight.

Even though they separated from Li Tang after graduating from junior high school and only met again until now, they really regarded Li Tang who was always behind them as a friend, but it was a pity that he died young.

"have nothing to say."

Mei Ling closed her eyes, recalling all the scenes when she and Li Tang were in the same class.

……

The night was dark, and almost everyone in the dormitory was asleep, but the people around him kept tossing and turning, breathing lightly from time to time.

Mei Ling's sleep quality is not good, even the slightest movement can wake him up, not to mention the two people's bed next to each other, it is so noisy that he can't sleep.

"What are you doing?!" Mei Ling's tone was a little sullen, and she would not be pleasant when anyone was woken up.

"Sorry for waking you up." Li Tang covered his ears with one hand, his voice trembling slightly, he couldn't hear what Mei Ling said at all.

Through the moonlight, Mei Ling saw that Li Tang was frowning, his face was pale and weak, and his right hand was on his ear, in great pain.

"What's wrong with you?" Mei Ling completely lost sleepiness, and turned to look at Li Tang.

He stretched out one hand to grab Li Tang's right wrist, causing Li Tang to let out a low cry.

"Ear hurts, don't touch it." Li Tang whispered, his face turned pale again.

"Why does the ear hurt?" Mei Ling was surprised. How could the ear hurt like this? Could it be otitis?

He suddenly remembered the spicy chicken that Du Yenian brought from home tonight, Li Tang seemed to have eaten a lot.

Mei Ling glanced at Li Tang, she couldn't eat spicy food and still enjoyed it so much, she deserved it!But even though she thought so in her heart, Mei Ling was still worried about Li Tang. Everyone else was asleep, so Mei Ling got off the bed lightly. Fortunately, there were some anti-inflammatory drugs in his dormitory. As a living horse doctor, he poured a glass of water, and after blowing for a long time, the heat finally disappeared.

He asked Li Tang to sit up, and asked him to take the medicine and warm water. An hour later, Li Tang was still in pain and couldn't sleep. Mei Ling suspected that the medicine didn't work at all, maybe it had expired.

Mei Ling looked at Li Tang's uncomfortable look, removed Li Tang's hand covering his ear, and stretched out his hand to cover Li Tang's ear. Li Tang didn't react for a while, but after a while, he realized what had happened, and suddenly His face flushed, and there was a trace of blood.

"Go to sleep." Mei Ling closed his eyes, he was indeed a little sleepy.

Not long after, Li Tang also gradually fell asleep.

……

One month before the Chinese Enrollment Examination, it is the day to apply for the voluntary examination.

The third floor is the teacher's office. Mei Ling's classroom is on the first floor, but because there are few people on the third floor, he always goes to the toilet on the third floor after class.

The head teacher's office door was wide open, and he accidentally saw Li Tang's figure, curiosity made him choose to stay and wait for Li Tang to come out from inside.

The voice inside was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough to reach Mei Ling's ears.

"Li Tang, with your grades, it may be a bit difficult for you to apply for the first high school." The bald math teacher said.

"It's okay, I want to try." Li Tang replied weakly, he was afraid of facing the teacher, since he was a child.

"Then if you don't pass the exam, you will have to retake the exam. In fact, the three high schools are not bad. Are you really willing to think about it? You can't be a man with high eyes and low hands, but be down-to-earth." The bald man seemed dissatisfied with Li Tang's persistence. Words are also a little excited.

"I will definitely be admitted to the first high school, Mr. Zhang, don't worry." Li Tang felt annoyed in his heart. He obviously had no high-mindedness, but he was dubbed such a hat inexplicably. He was not to be outdone, and said it back. It was the first time I talked to the teacher like this, and I suddenly felt a little guilty after I finished speaking.

"You're only good at math, and you're so serious about other subjects. I really don't know what to do. If you want to apply for high school, just apply. Don't blame others if you repeat it! Go back first." The bald head was completely angry, and he was also for the school. For the sake of his higher education rate, since this kid is obsessed with obsession, he doesn't bother to care about him. The young people should suffer a little more, so that they don't listen to the old man's words, and the disadvantages are not just for fun.

Li Tang left the office anxiously. He didn't expect to see Mei Ling leaning against the wall as soon as he went out. He smiled awkwardly. He didn't know how much Mei Ling had heard. He thought of his arrogant tone just now, and he would definitely Be ridiculed.

"You want to take a high school?" Mei Ling looked at Li Tang fixedly. How come he never realized that Li Tang is so ambitious and dared to challenge the best high school in the city. To be honest, he also felt that Li Tang's move was very precarious. , [-]% will be slapped in the face, but since it is his friend, it is better to save face and stop laughing at him. When he fails the exam, it is not too late to laugh at him.

"...Mmm." Sure enough, he heard it, but it doesn't matter, Li Tang is confident that he will be able to pass the exam, there is no reason, Li Tang has this feeling, no matter what the result is, he will give it a go.

Mei Ling did not tell anyone about this news. In the last month, he tried not to let other people disturb Li Tang's study. If possible, he also hoped that Li Tang would be able to pass the entrance examination. It's not a day or two for them. If there is a person in his class who is admitted to the first high school, the bald head will definitely burn incense and worship Buddha happily.

On the day when the test results came out, everyone was dumbfounded, including the bald head.When the bald man saw Li Tang, his expression was kind, as if he saw his own son, while the others were all cheering, happier than he had been admitted to the first high school.

Not only did Li Tang pass the exam, but he also did very well in the exam. Although it can't be said to be very good in the whole city, in this school, Li Tang's grades ranked fifth in the school, which is the best ever achieved by Li Tang. His grades have become a big dark horse in their school.

The Chinese Entrance Examination is so strict, cheating is of course impossible, unless Li Tang deliberately failed the exam and lowered his level, otherwise there is no way to explain his rapid progress this time, the bald head patted Li Tang on the shoulder in relief, Saying that he is the pride of Class [-], Li Tang is noncommittal, but simply smiles.

Li Tang, who was in the third year of junior high school, finally began to grow taller. He was no longer the petite person Mei Ling was when he first met him, but he still had room for improvement. Compared with him, he was still half a head short.

In order to celebrate Li Tang winning honor for Class [-], the bald head paid out of his own pocket and invited the whole class out for dinner.Everyone cheered. After all, after this meal, they couldn't fight together like before. Some went to the first high school, some went to the second high school, some went to the third high school, and some even dropped out of school I'll see you next time, and I don't know what year and month it will be, so they cherish this moment very much.

"Li Tang, why... are you hiding your strength?"

Mei Ling called Li Tang out of the private room alone and asked, he was no less surprised than anyone else, it must be impossible to make such a big improvement in just one month, why did Li Tang hide himself, you know, If you do well in the usual exams, you can get a scholarship, and you can also be paid attention to by the teacher and focus on training. Li Tang must know this.

"Hmm... It doesn't count, it's just that I didn't bring my brains with me in the usual exams, but I brought my brains with me for the last time, don't be so surprised, I'm a genius." Li Tang showed his big white teeth and smiled brilliantly.

"A born idiot." Mei Ling scolded with a smile as she had never seen such a stupid genius.

"Hee hee, Mei Ling, what will you do after graduation, and Du Yenian, you are from the same place, you should go to the same place in the future, right?" Li Tang put away his smile, with a smile on his face. A trace of loneliness and loneliness.

"I don't know, maybe I'll just drop out of school and work, that's not a good idea." Mei Ling was caught off guard by Li Tang's sudden change of mood. She didn't expect Li Tang to be quite emotional. Is he unwilling to separate from them?After all, the three of them have been inseparable for the past two years. He and Du Yenian do all kinds of evil together every day, and Li Tang clings to them like a follower. It's really sad to separate them abruptly.

"Mei Ling, actually...I like you very much! And Du Yenian, you two, I don't want to be separated from you! But I know that people have joys and sorrows, and the moon waxes and wanes, so no matter how far you go , we are still good friends, okay?" Li Tang rubbed his eyes, his eyes were red, and tried his best not to let the tears flow out, but the choked voice betrayed him.

"Fool, why are you crying? Of course we are good friends, the kind for a lifetime." Mei Ling sighed and rubbed Li Tang's soft hair. Learn not to be strong.

"Mei Ling, if you don't know what to do, just become a star. You Du Ye is so old and handsome. You will definitely become popular when you become a star. When I first met you two, I felt that you two were very similar. A star, he has the temperament of a star." Li Tang stared at Mei Ling with staring eyes, as if the person in front of him had become a superstar who had become popular in half the sky.

Afterwards, Mei Ling and Du Yenian went all the way, and finally embarked on the road of stardom, and achieved a lot of achievements. As Li Tang said, they are very suitable for this road, and they don't know How did Li Tang see it, it was so accurate.

The rain continued, and the black car finally disappeared at the end of the road, taking away with it, as well as renewed memories.

……

The next day, the rain stopped, but the sky was still not clear, the ground was wet, and there were few pedestrians on the road. It was not a good day for shopping.

Li Shang is going to visit Li Tang's hometown, and by the way, bring the inheritance in Li Tang's will.It is reasonable to say that the division of the inheritance should be done by everyone present, but Li Tang specifically stated in his will that he asked Li Shang to hand over the inheritance to other people, which shows Li Tang's trust in Li Shang, even if the two people are separated. Years are still undiminished.

Before leaving, he went to Liu Guisha to have a look at Rhubarb and Dabai. The two little guys were obviously old. Cats and dogs that can live for more than ten years are usually in their twilight years. They are obviously not as lively as before. When he saw Li Shang coming, he just swayed slowly to his legs, sniffing and sniffing, Dabai patted Li Shang's trouser legs with his claws, and Dahuang kept rubbing his head against Li Shang's ankles.

Li Shang looked at the two old men and almost couldn't hold back his tears. These two pets were the only connection he had with Li Tang. When he came back, he would pick them up and take good care of them in their old age.

After bidding farewell to Liu Guisha, Li Shang embarked on the train to a strange place alone.

Sitting on the train, Li Shang looked at the scenery outside the window, the gray sky, the dark brown fields, from one city to another, as if jumping from one box to another, there was no time to see what was outside the box clear.He suddenly remembered the scene of traveling with Li Tang once.

Once they went to Hangzhou, a prosperous place with outstanding people.Every time Li Tang goes on a trip, he just wanders around without looking at the map. He also calls it a big adventure, a thrill-seeking trip, and specially chooses places with few people and dangerous roads.

At that time, Litang saw a small house with an ancient style from a long distance, and he dragged him to run over in a hurry, but it turned out to be a uniquely built toilet, and Litang finally left in frustration.

Suddenly Li Tang found another winding path, and Li Tang dragged him up again, walking a long way, and suddenly there was no road ahead, and there was only a hotel-like building at the end. Li Tang didn't believe that this was the end, so he went around to the back of the hotel to have a look, but he returned frustrated again.

By the time they walked out of that scenic spot, it was already dark, and they almost had to stay overnight in the deep mountains and old forests.Later, the two had dinner at the Louwailou of a famous local restaurant. Li Tang ate and sipped, and even recited a poem involuntarily: "When is the West Lake singing and dancing in the Qingshanlouloulou beyond the mountains?"
