【Yu Huang】The tide of the sea of ​​people

"Yes, Shaotian is the smartest." Yu Wenzhou seemed to want to help him sit up, but Huang Shaotian refused, not only refused, but even moaned and dragged him to lie down with him.

"Today, I'm telling you...my dad...my dad is the brother of Uncle Wei and the others. My mother...I don't know her, I haven't seen her. She died when she gave birth to me... "

"It's Chinese New Year today, let's not talk about it, Shaotian." Yu Wenzhou reached out to touch the corner of his eyes, as if to confirm whether he was crying, "Have a happy Chinese New Year."

"I said this, hiccup... I won't be unhappy, I, I know, I just told you... I didn't tell you before." Huang Shaotian continued to mutter, "Then when I was three years old... said To be honest, I don't remember, I just remember that my dad didn't come back after leaving the house, and then I was brought to the main hall by Boss Wei."

"Later they told me that someone wanted to kill Boss Wei at that time, and my dad blocked the shot for him, so I was the only one left... I stayed in Blue Rain, grew up here, and then I met you ..."

Huang Shaotian laughed suddenly: "And then it's up to now."

"To be honest, I miss them very much." He seemed to be a little clearer, but his eyes were still full of soft drunkenness, "Although I haven't seen one of them and I can't remember the other, I still miss them very much... My dad Especially pick watermelon! I remember, well water rushing, cool and sweet watermelon..."

His voice became lower and lower until there was only the sound of slow breathing in the room.

The sounds of cannons and people outside seemed to have become far away at this moment, while he and Yu Wenzhou became extremely close.

It smelled of alcohol—it was hard to tell whether it was from Yu Wenzhou or himself, anyway, it was the same. He felt Yu Wenzhou's hands touching his hair, and his movements were cherished and careful.It's strange to say that he was clearly drunk, but his normally sharp perception was amplified even more at this time. He could even detect Yu Wenzhou's hesitation to speak a few times, as if he wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know it. How to say it, you can only get close with your body.

"Now you know where I came from." He knelt up and hugged Yu Wenzhou, "Then Wenzhou... where did you come from?"

He felt Yu Wenzhou's obvious stiffness and disgust, and his drunken mind didn't know if he had asked the wrong question, but he only knew that at this moment he must not let go of the hand that was holding him.

"'circus'."

In the end he heard Yu Wenzhou utter three words softly.

The sound was as thin as a bubble that would burst at the touch of a button.

He intuited that the definition of these three words in Yu Wenzhou's place should be different from what he knew. After Yu Wenzhou said these three words, he fell silent again. After sitting for a while, he broke away from Huang Shaotian and reached for the wine bottle, as if emboldened. It seemed that he was pouring into the mouth of the bottle in shock, and the golden wine flowed down the corner of his mouth and snaked into his collar.

Huang Shaotian was dumbfounded, he didn't realize until Yu Wenzhou coughed from choking that he snatched the wine bottle, and when he snatched it, he was afraid that he would have another fight, so he simply drank the rest of the bottle in one go, so there was another burst Get drunk.

He looked at Yu Wenzhou, and then at this room.

I don't know why, I stood up staggeringly, went to blow out the lamp, and climbed onto the bed again,

"I... hiccup, I'm listening." He said drunkenly while shaking Yu Wenzhou's hand.

"Don't be bored... You have been bored, it's not good, it's so sad."

"I don't want to make you sad."

"Then, Shaotian, let me tell you a story, don't be afraid." Now Yu Wenzhou hugged him, "Or you can be afraid, but don't be afraid of me... I escaped and was picked up by you, now good."

Huang Shaotian nodded desperately.

"There are two people in the city leading a dog, which is slightly larger than ordinary dogs. The front two toes are longer than the dog's toes and claws, and the hind feet are like bears."

Yu Wenzhou's voice was eloquent, as if he was really telling him a story.

"It has a tail and is small, and its ears and nose are like a human's. It is definitely not like a dog, and its body is covered with dog hair."

He lay on Yu Wenzhou's body, listening to his words, he felt the warmth of alcohol welling up together, and gradually he couldn't hear what he said clearly, only knew that this person was here.

"This dog can speak human words and sing all kinds of ditties, all according to the rhythm. The audience is like a crowd, competing for money for a song, and it is heard all over the world."

……

When Huang Shaotian woke up again, it was already broad daylight.

He sat up in a daze, yelled Wenzhou a few times, but no one answered, and belatedly realized that his headache felt like it was about to burst.

The memory of last night slipped back into his mind little by little, and he remembered the story Yu Wenzhou told him, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Fuck it!" He cursed bitterly, jumped out of the bed without even putting on his clothes, stepped on his shoes and went to find Yu Wenzhou.

When he rushed to the door, the door was just opened, and Yu Wenzhou, who was wearing a new suit, stood outside the door, looking at him in surprise.

His body seemed to move instinctively, and he pulled Yu Wenzhou over - so hard that Yu Wenzhou was caught by the threshold. He hugged Yu Wenzhou tightly, sobbing vaguely in his throat, he didn't know what to say What, I just wondered if I could protect him a little tighter, or...why didn't he pick this person up sooner?

"Wenzhou." He managed to pronounce his name at the end, and Yu Wenzhou, who was allowed to hold him, stroked his back and laughed softly.

"Shaotian, it snowed last night."

"When I got up, there was still a light layer of white on the ground... I wanted to ask you to look at it, but you slept soundly."

His gentle voice was the same as every morning in the past, but it made Huang Shaotian even more sad.He was really crying, and now Yu Wenzhou was in a hurry, pulling away from him and wiping his tears with his sleeves.

"Don't cry... If you cry today, you will cry for a year, Boss Wei said."

"I didn't cry!" Huang Shaotian yelled at him with red eyes.

"Okay." Yu Wenzhou responded with a good temper.

He stared at Yu Wenzhou firmly. To be honest, he had thought about Yu Wenzhou's life experience a lot—but none of them could be worth the case of the truth he told. The 16-year-old Huang Shaotian had the urge to kill for the first time, no, people who do this are not worthy of being human at all, not even animals.

"Don't look at me like that." Yu Wenzhou said again, "I knew I wouldn't have told you."

"But it's good to tell you." He added, "Otherwise, I always feel that...something is hidden from you, and it's very sad."

"It's just not glorious...and a little scary."

"Fart!" Huang Shaotian's growl interrupted his narration, he dragged Yu Wenzhou into the back room, and began to put on the new clothes he had prepared long ago, speaking in a hurry and quickly.

"Let's go, let's hurry up to pay New Year's greetings to Boss Wei, and extort some lucky money from him—to blackmail everyone's lucky money."

"Let me tell you, Wenzhou, what you said last night was all nonsense."

"Actually, what is your life experience? I remembered that you are like me. You have never seen your mother, and you can't remember what your father looks like. I just remember that he laughed wildly, played with guns very well, and was very picky. Watermelon... He went out one day and didn't come back. We were very young at that time. We came to Blue Rain together. We grew up here. Everyone here dotes on us. No matter how naughty we are, they can't help us... "

As he spoke, he dragged the stunned Yu Wenzhou out.

On the first day of the new year, the weather was fine and the sun was dazzling.

"What I just said, the past is all shared with you. I still remember a lot of things, and I will tell you one by one later."

"The story you told is terrible, what the hell shit, don't stick this kind of drowsy nightmare to yourself. You taught me to forget it when you wake up after having a nightmare."

"I'm asking you, Yu Wenzhou."

They walked out of the gate quickly, and met many people on the way to Wei Chen's yard, they all greeted them with smiles and called Wenzhou Shaotian.

"In the future, if someone asks you what you were like when you were a child, what would you say?"

Huang Shaotian was panting a little while walking, stopped and looked at him seriously.

Yu Wenzhou stared at him and gradually laughed.

"I don't remember." He whispered, "I haven't seen my mother, and I can't remember what my father looks like. I just remember that the watermelon he picked was delicious."

"Huang Shaotian and I, the two of us have grown up together in Blue Rain since we were very young..."
