wilderness

Chapter 18

Gu Beiqiao moved a chair and sat under the tree at the entrance of the noodle shop, the idiot squatted beside him, and there was a pile of small green vegetables in front of them.

These vegetables are all bought by Sister Zhao from farmers in the suburbs, and they are still covered with fresh and moist soil.Sister Zhao asked them to pick off the yellowed rotten leaves, and pinch the roots with long beards. The ones they chose were placed in a large red plastic basin on the side, and they would be washed later.

Sister Zhao seems to like red very much, just like people in rural market towns on the [-]th line especially love festive colors. The two big pots in the noodle restaurant are red, the plastic chairs are red, the chopsticks and spoons are red, The plush blanket in the closet is red, and most of the flowers on the balcony are also red.

But it's not just red, green is also Sister Zhao's favorite color, both red and green, what does this mean?

Gu Beiqiao was thinking wildly while picking vegetables. When he thought of green, he suddenly grabbed a vegetable and studied it carefully.

"What do you think it looks like?" he asked the fool.

The fool looked at the vegetables in his hand in confusion, repeated his words and asked, "What does this look like?"

Gu Beiqiao turned the rhizome of the spinach, and the leaves also scattered, "This is a tree tens of thousands of years ago."

"Tree?" The idiot looked up at the tall camphor tree above his head, and then looked suspiciously at the pile of small green vegetables in front of him.

"Tens of thousands of years ago, it was not too small. It grew up in a wilderness with its companions. At that time, there were things smaller than it. It could shelter from the wind and rain, and it could also build shelters for other creatures. Later, smaller things evolved into It became a giant, and other tree species slowly grew up in order to survive, but it has not changed, and now it can only be eaten by people."

When the idiot heard him say a long paragraph, his face wrinkled into a ball, and he just said "oh".

Gu Beiqiao said seriously: "Really, I often watch the animal world, and everything will evolve, from simple to complex, from low-level to high-level."

The fool asked enthusiastically: "What about me? I want to be advanced!"

Gu Beiqiao glanced at him, "You can't."

The fool said sullenly, "I want to grow up."

Gu Beiqiao thought for a while, "Unless you are like me..." Looking at the fool's puzzled eyes, he continued: "You have to forget about your body, and then turn yourself into a tree, bask in the sun every day, then You can grow taller and bigger."

The fool touched his arm with his muddy hand, closed his eyes, touched it again when he opened it, and said dejectedly, "No, I can't forget it."

Gu Beiqiao looked at him regretfully, "Stupid!"

The idiot threw the vegetables into the basin in frustration, when he heard Sister Zhao calling him from inside: "Silly Qing, come and help!"

The fool had no choice but to stand up and walk inside.

Gu Beiqiao began to think about the relationship between red and green. If green is a tree and red is a flower... then this noodle restaurant may be a tree full of red flowers, and Wanhua Park is so close, maybe this place belongs to Wanhua garden?The bridge noodle shop next door is a tree with white flowers, and the snack bar is a tree with yellow flowers.The people in the store are bees collecting nectar, and the customers who come here are butterflies eating nectar...

A dusty off-road vehicle slowly parked in the parking space behind Gu Beiqiao, and a middle-aged man got out of the car. He was half bald, and his features vaguely resembled those of a fool.He took out the suitcase from the trunk, and when he walked towards the noodle shop, he saw Gu Beiqiao who was concentrating on picking vegetables, lowered his head and smiled and asked, "Are you Qiaoqiao?"

Gu Beiqiao raised his head blankly, "Are the butterflies here?"

The man froze for a moment, looked left and then looked again, how could there be any butterflies?Then he introduced himself with a smile: "I'm Silly Qing's father. I just came back from the capital. You can call me Uncle Chen."

Gu Beiqiao came back to his senses, stood up and said, "Hello, Uncle Chen."

Uncle Chen sized him up and nodded, "Sure enough, it's just like what your Aunt Zhao said, she looks cute and cute, so she didn't bully you these days, did she?"

Gu Beiqiao shook his head, looking at this man who was completely different from his father, Gu Tianze was tall and thin, with high cheekbones, looking very rigid and serious, while the fool's father was short and fat, but had a very kind face.

Uncle Chen said: "That's good. Silly Qing finally got a companion. I was worried that he would scare you." Looking at the vegetables on the ground, he said again: "Why didn't he pick vegetables with you? Did he just get lazy? "

Gu Beiqiao replied: "He went to help Auntie."

"Okay, okay, then I'll go in and see their wives first, you wash your hands and come in later, I brought back some delicious food from the capital, and I'll share it with you two."

Gu Beiqiao thanked him, and saw him pull the suitcase into the noodle shop, shouting happily: "Look who's back!"

From the noodle shop, Sister Zhao's condolences and a fool's exclamation: "Father!"

Gu Beiqiao sat back on the red plastic chair and picked up some green vegetables.

After a while, the idiot jumped out of the room and saw Gu Beiqiao lower his head, shaking the things in his hand, "Brother Qiao, here you are!"

Gu Beiqiao glanced at it and saw that it was a candy wrapped in floral paper, and turned his face away uninterestedly.

The fool raised his hand again, "Eat! Beef candy!"

Gu Beiqiao glared at him, "Don't eat!"

The fool refused to give up, peeled off the candy wrapper, squeezed the beef cubes and handed it to his mouth, "It's delicious, eat it!" He said it in a soft tone, which sounded like a baby.

Gu Beiqiao looked at his wheat-colored skin and strong body, and felt goosebumps all over his body. Just as he was about to say something, he felt two fingers protruding from his mouth, and the beef candy was also stuffed into his mouth.

The fool tilted his head and smiled, took out one and ate it himself, "It's delicious!"

Gu Beiqiao felt that the beef candy tasted salty and spicy in his mouth, and it had a tenacity when he chewed it. He somehow felt that the meat on the fool's body should have the same taste when he bit it.

"Go up and take down the rabbit and the little bear on the bed." He thought of something, lowered his head and continued to pick up the few vegetables.

The fool nodded and ran away quickly.

By the time the fool took the things down, Gu Beiqiao had already finished picking the vegetables, and he dragged the big basin full of vegetables aside, filled the hose with water, and washed his hands clean.

After receiving the two dolls, Gu Beiqiao pointed at the big basin with his chin, "Go wash the vegetables, I'm going to the park."

As soon as he stepped up, the fool followed him closely, "I'll go too."

"Go back and wash the vegetables." Gu Beiqiao patted his head, "Don't follow me."

He passed the door of the rice noodle shop and walked along the camphor tree street towards Wanhua Park.The fool stood where he was, watching him walk forward step by step, feeling a little sad suddenly.After losing sight of Gu Beiqiao's back, he finally obediently came to the big basin to wash the vegetables.

Gu Beiqiao was walking on the road with a doll in one hand, and occasionally some children came to meet him. They looked at the doll in Gu Beiqiao's hands, and they were all attracted by them.

Children are like this, even if such plush dolls are piled up in their own homes, or in a small store with many toys, they may not notice, once they appear in a rare place, such as in a shopping mall It is a school of books and stationery, other people's homes, passers-by, and they just don't have any on hand, so they will feel envious and beg adults to come.

A little girl who looked like a doll in a princess dress walked up to Gu Beiqiao, raised her pretty face and said to him, "Can you give me one of your dolls?" Hair accessories with lace trim look delicate and cute.

The woman following the little girl looked at her daughter with a smile, touched her head and said dotingly: "Xing Xing, you have to call me brother, a good and polite boy is called brother, so brother will be given to you."

Gu Beiqiao looked at the little girl who blocked his way, and heard her say innocently: "Brother, can you give it to me now?"

Two people, one big and one small, stared at Gu Beiqiao expectantly.

Gu Beiqiao blinked and didn't speak, then took a step aside, staggered the mother and daughter and walked straight away.

Behind her came the little girl's annoyed snort, and her mother's flustered comforting voice, "Don't be angry, Xing Xing, that person is crazy, mom will buy you a big doll later, it's much prettier than his, don't be angry, don't be angry , mother hug..."

Gu Beiqiao paused. He hadn't heard anyone call him that for a long time. He felt a little strange, then walked to the depths of the park, found a bench and sat down, put the rabbit and bear on the chair, let them and himself Sit side by side.

With the breeze blowing, Gu Beiqiao leaned on the back of the chair, listening to the whining of the little bear, Blue Rabbit kindly interpreted for him, "Ahhhh, finally came out! I saw a lot of trees, I really want to climb them! "

Blue Rabbit flattened his mouth, "Can you crawl?"

Then he repeated Little Bear's words: "Our brown bears can not only go down the river to catch fish, but also climb trees to catch birds. This is a talent!"

"Bragging, but you can't even walk the road."

"That's because... because... I was bewitched! Only the princess kissed me to recover."

The rabbit was surprised: "No way..."

"real!"

When Gu Beiqiao heard this, he suddenly said, "Could you be the princess?"

The rabbit shyly said: "I am not!"

The little bear whined a few times, and the rabbit didn't want to translate anymore.

Gu Beiqiao picked up the two dolls and slowly brought them closer.

Finally, the mouths of the two dolls were pressed together, and two strange lights flashed in Gu Beiqiao's hands, and two animals, one big and one small, suddenly appeared on the grass in front of them.The big one is covered with long brown hair, black eyes and black mouth, strong and powerful; the small one is a rabbit with rare light blue fur.

"I...I can move!" the two animals said in unison.

They rolled and played on the grass. When people passing by in the park looked this way, they only saw a silent teenager holding two dolls in his hands, and no one noticed anything unusual on the grass.

Gu Beiqiao watched the brown bear climb up a tree deftly, poked his head out among the lush branches and yelled at the rabbit, "I was born to climb trees, do you believe me now?"

The rabbit looked at it adoringly, and gnawed at the lawn on the ground, "You are delicious! The grass is amazing!"

They played for a while, and then reluctantly said goodbye to Gu Beiqiao, "We are leaving, goodbye."

"Will you go to the grassland?" Gu Beiqiao asked.

"Yes!" the rabbit said decisively: "I want to graze on the grassland, eating the original ecology and pollution-free grass!"

The brown bear also nodded, "Then I'll go with it." Then the two animals walked away through the bushes and the crowd.

Gu Beiqiao looked at the backs of their departure with some desolation, and then lowered his head to look at the dolls in his hands. They were lifeless and could no longer speak.

The idiot ran over panting after washing the dishes, and happily shouted, "Brother Qiao! Brother Qiao!"

He saw Gu Beiqiao sitting at one end of the bench, just looking ahead in silence.The middle and the other end of the bench were occupied by rabbits and bears respectively, so I had to squat on the ground beside Gu Beiqiao, help him drive away the mosquitoes lingering around his legs, and took out a piece of sugar, peeled it off and ate it.

Gu Beiqiao suddenly turned to look at him, "I want it too."

Without hesitation, the fool grabbed all the candies in his pocket and stuffed them all into his palms, filling them to the brim.

The author has something to say: answer a few questions:

Is Qiaoqiao's stepmother good or bad?If you are Gu Beiqiao, then she is definitely bad; if you are someone else, then she is good.

Does Gu Beiqiao really have the special ability to talk to non-human beings?Of course not, he usually likes to read books and the animal world, which he fantasizes from what he sees.

Will Silly get better?Of course it will, but not in the near future~~~

Is it necessary for Qiaoqiao's many fantasies to appear in the article?some!The answer will come later, which is actually what the author really wants to express.

Thanks to the big babies who follow the text~~~MUUUUA~~~
