Lost in the world

mountain road

"Old man, can I give you a ride?"

"Come on, you two little ones will take a company."

two? --Who is that?

The elated Mo Qingxuan jumped onto the bullock cart, and his smooth movements froze: "Why are you?!"

The wooden cart covered with a layer of straw exudes a damp and pungent smell of corruption. The disheveled young man hugged his knees and leaned against the rattan basket containing potatoes. The dusty pullover on his body was faintly stained with water. There are traces of mud on the white trousers.He seemed to be aware of Mo Qingxuan's scrutiny, and he retracted his feet in embarrassment. At this moment, Mo Qingxuan called out to him:

"Your shoelaces are untied"

Phoenix's head was lower, his disheveled hair covered his face, and he couldn't see his thin face clearly, and his muddy shoes seemed to be shrunk under his buttocks.

"Wait--"

I saw Mo Qingxuan bent down, holding the two unrecognizable earthen shoes with his slender fingers like bamboo joints, and when Phoenix was so frightened that his body became stiff and his limbs did not dare to move, his fingers with mottled scars but not fragile He has picked up two long gray and black shoelaces and neatly tied a bow.

The technique is skillful and done in one go.

"You weren't with Ling Xiao, why did you appear here?"

Phoenix lowered his head, touched the bow on the shoe cherishingly, and replied in a low voice:

"run away"

But in fact, Mo Qingxuan didn't care about these things.He felt physically exhausted, like a machine that would collapse at any time, but his spirit was very uplifting.

The tired body urgently needed to rest, but the clear brain did not receive such instructions, instead the consciousness became more and more excited, and the beating heart continued to consume what little energy was left. Mo Qingxuan covered his sore and swollen eyes , I thought it would be really bad if I fainted halfway.

So he lay flat, and his weak body completely relaxed at this moment.

He thought that if he couldn't fall asleep, he could just squint for a while.How could I lose consciousness after touching the straw mat, staggering for an unknown amount of time, my body seemed to be bathed in warm sunshine, and birds were chirping in my ears, and after a while, rumbling cars seemed to be rolling in. Chunlei came from far and near, and when it rolled over his ears, it made him wake up from the dark dream profusely in sweat.

Open your eyes and see the mottled tree shadows

He was lying under a tree by the side of the road, surrounded by passers-by who kept casting strange glances at him. He was about to raise his hand to wipe the hot sweat from his brow when he suddenly heard a hoarse and restrained voice say:

"your phone"

"--what?"

He turned his head in surprise, and saw that Phoenix was holding a mobile phone in both hands. It was buzzing non-stop at this time, and the caller ID: Xiao Liu.However, he was even more surprised: "You have been here, guarding me?"

Phoenix had two huge dark circles under his eyes, and his sharp chin nodded.His complexion was extremely white, like a decadent blue-white with no blood, at first glance he looked dull and weird, like a gloomy and withdrawn drug addict.It can be seen that the moment he nodded, Mo Qingxuan's heart went "Zi la~" as if a weak electric current stimulated him, and he felt numb and numb. He didn't feel sad, but instead gave birth to a strange sense of satisfaction.For a moment, he couldn't understand this abnormal reaction, and hurriedly took the phone, and immediately heard the noise from there.

Xiao Liu's immature voice sounded slowly: "...I'm at the airport, we're leaving."

A normal person's response should be: I'll go see you off.But Liu Chuan should be with Xiao Liu, and the matter has reached this point, there is really no need for the two of them to meet again, so he just politely told: "Be careful on the road. By the way, did you say goodbye to Ling Xiao?"

"...Leave me alone, do you know that brother is getting married?"

——For a moment, Mo Qingxuan was stunned, as if he was not sure: "What, what?"

"I also just found out that my elder brother is going to marry the Fujiwara family, and marry... Ms. Fujiwara..."

"Yes, is that so..."

"I know that my brother has done something to force you, but I can see that he has you in his heart and has always treated you very well..."

Then?Treating him very well, should he respond to Liu Chuan's love?

This feeling...is similar to that, he likes grapes, but Liu Chuan is holding a plate of yellow and beautiful bananas to curry favor with him, if he refuses, it means he doesn't know how to appreciate others' kindness, and he will be blamed by others.But obviously he doesn't like bananas, he likes grapes...

At this moment, a bunch of juicy grapes came into view.

"...?!!"

His eyes moved to Phoenix in disbelief, seeing that he was dull as usual, he took out a squashed banana from his bag, and gnawed on it himself.

He actually felt his hands tremble slightly, and his voice trembled slightly: "Thank you, thank you..."

A gust of breeze suddenly blew, and Mo Qingxuan's mind became clearer. With a bunch of grapes in his arms, he stood up suddenly and said, "I'm leaving. Please return this dagger to Ling Xiao."

As he walked out of the shade of the tree, he thought about how to get to the bus station.After walking a certain distance, someone followed behind him. He turned his head, his fair skin was flushed with sunburn, and he narrowed his eyes to stare at the figure not far away. One sentence:

"Are you going to follow me?"

After asking, I feel regretful.

He met Phoenix by chance and had no friendship, so if he rashly invites him to go with him, is he being rude?

While hesitating, a hoarse and heavy word——

"it is good"

into the ears

Mo Qingxuan walked up to him in surprise, and couldn't help jumping for joy: "Really? I'm going to Kunming, will you agree to come with me?!"

Phoenix's pale face gradually turned red. It should be the hot sun. He immediately grabbed Phoenix's sleeve and said repeatedly: "Let's go to dinner, haha ​​I'm treating you! Phoenix, you can call me' Ah Qing', I always feel that the name 'A Qing' is very familiar."

At noon, the two went to the bus station for a ride.

Mo Qingxuan was still excited. When he bought the ticket, he showed his ID card. Only then did he realize that the ID card was forged——

"what……"

It won't be dismantled, right?He thought anxiously, but the ticket sales aunt just took a cursory look, printed out a bus ticket to Kunming, and returned it with her ID card.

Mo Qingxuan was sincerely grateful: "Thank you"

When it was Phoenix's turn to show his ID, he paused, turned his head to pay attention, and saw that Phoenix took out an old and worn ID card from his trouser pocket.

pray for

Unconsciously amazed, he said: "The two beauties must be combined. Whoever believes in cultivating and admires it is really a good name. Such a beautiful two people, why don't they yearn for each other?"

There is a rippling smile on the corner of the mouth, the two beauties must be combined - a match made in heaven, whoever believes in it and admires it, the lingering and moving yearning, aftertaste carefully, is like a beautiful woman's jade fingers messing with a string, the lingering sound is endless.

When Mo Qingxuan thought of the bookstore he just passed by, his pen and ink were fragrant, his heart became more and more itchy, and before the bus left, he hurried to the bookstore to pick up a book of poems to relieve boredom on the way.

Behind him, a bunch of dark eyes fell on his gradually walking away back.

The gloomy face under the shaggy hair, the thin lips slowly raised, seemed to show a smile arc, but he didn't seem to have shown emotions in this way, so that the whole face was mechanically numb, and the curved lips were cold and hard, Then slowly revealed a weird smiling face that made people feel horrible.

A little girl passing by licking a lollipop cried out with a "wow": "Mom woo woo woo——Mom—"

At this time, Ling Xiao, who was left behind, complained to himself: "Why—my ​​Mumu—my knife—my feelings, my heart and liver are all broken into pieces~ I feel so uncomfortable..."

He rolled on the ground, hugged Yang Mei's snow-white thigh, and cried hoarsely: "Sister Mei—sister! Grandma, please help me, I'm already a salted fish, I really can't help it, I'm going to die ——Ah, baby, my life is suffering, only my sister can help me—”

"Shut up! It's too noisy!"

The crying stopped abruptly

Ling Xiao sobbed and knelt in front of Yang Mei, blinked his wet eyes, and pinched his voice coquettishly: "I have never had a father or a mother since I was a child, and my sister pulled me up with shit and urine, so many years of friendship , just have the heart to ignore me?"

"—Get up! Who brought you up! Don't put a high hat on my head, my delicate little girl can't stand your tossing like this. You get up first, and I'll ask you—there are so many cases under the hands of the cold-faced fox , why do you hold on to this?"

Ling Xiao wiped his tears with his sleeve and said, "My dad is an anti-drug policeman."

His voice was jammed in the crook of his arms, and it sounded particularly dull.

"Back when I applied for the police university, you all supported me. Who the hell would have thought that—the idea of ​​making me a clerk in the exams stutter? It's really black-hearted. I know that the second elder is afraid that I will follow my father's old path Well, but I followed my dad when I grew up. I don’t want to engage in office intrigue. I finally got a job I like, so I can stop it. Sister, don’t try to persuade me. I can't get out of this case anymore. If you help me, I can still breathe. If you don't help me - the only way out is to die. You don't want to carry my body to my father's grave, right? ?”

After wiping away his tears, his eyes were still red, and his tone became more cautious at the end.

The more he flaunted his weakness, the more Yang Mei couldn't hold back her indifferent face. Looking up at the very charming Danfeng eyes, she was silent for a moment, then suddenly showed a trace of looseness, and asked: "Where is Phoenix?" , why don't you let him help you? You have encountered such a big trouble, he can't just ignore it. "

"No, no~", he waved his hands again and again, "Don't get him involved. He finally met someone he likes, and he chased him eagerly. I want to drag him back and kick him, that would be too dishonest!"

"You really treat him well! What is the origin of that Mo Qingxuan? It's strange... I always feel that face is familiar, I seem to have seen it somewhere..."

Yang Mei tapped her chin with her well-maintained green and white fingers, and Yang Mei couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

"...Looks like I have to go home. Ling Xiao, I helped you this time, next time—"

"——No next time, Sister Mei! I swear, I swear in the name of my old man underground, hehe, I will leave immediately after finishing this vote. You escort me to meet the cold-faced fox, and I will never resist. Be obedient like a rabbit~”

Ling Xiao acted like a good boy when he got a bargain, his long and narrow pupils turned into two crescent moons when he smiled, and said, "It's still my sister who knows how to hurt people. You've been in Ruili for two years, and if you're transferred back, you'll be my boss, a year taller than a fox." Level, haha, with you under your protection, how dare he bully me all the time! Squeeze me!"

He was bouncing around, looking like a bare-bottomed monkey dancing with a banana in his arms. Suddenly, the phone in his trouser pocket vibrated with a "buzz~".

Yang Mei noticed: "Why, the cold-faced fox has urged you to come again?"

Holding the phone in both hands, Ling Xiao stared at the caller ID with an undisguised dislike on his face, then hung up unwillingly, and said angrily, "Sooner or later, he will look at him with admiration."

Putting the phone back in his pocket, the moment he lowered his head, his overly beautiful eyebrows and eyes were locked into a knot that was difficult to stretch.

The hand that was gripping the phone tightly burst out with ferocious veins, trying to suppress some deeply hidden and unspeakable emotions.

……

He hid for so long that when he saw that person again, those long-lost dark and ugly pasts gradually swallowed him like an endless tide.

The scar at the corner of the eye seemed to be aching again.
