subtle trapping

The first ray of sunshine in the new year shines down, but people can't feel the slightest warmth.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Lixia went to Nanhua Temple alone. There were many people praying in the temple. In front of the Buddha, the faithful men and women were all extremely pious. Lixia kowtowed deeply a few times.

Burning incense and lighting candles in the temple, the smoke was lingering, but Lixia felt extraordinarily at ease, went down the steps, looked at the murals in the yard, and saw the little monk in a flash.

The scenes are similar every year, but people are different every year.

Li Xia paused, raised his wrist, and then remembered that he had put away the red rope and ring. Before entering the control center, Li Xia took them off and put them away carefully. They should not be stained by such a place. , and didn't put it on again after he came out, Li Xia felt that he was not worthy.

There was nothing on the wrist, but Li Xia felt heavy and tight in his heart, as if he was locked by invisible shackles, revealing endless exhaustion and dead silence.

Lixia walked over and asked the little monk for two more red ropes.

Lixia put the two red ropes in the palm of his hand and put them close to his chest, thinking silently in his heart, hoping that Lu Jinchu will be safe and successful this year, took a breath, and continued tremblingly, can he please not forget me.

A heart trembles and beats, but only for that one person.

The Spring Festival was as noisy and lively as usual, and all the festivities accumulated for a year were spread out at this moment, looking grand and gorgeous, but none of this seemed to belong to Gu Lixia.

All the things in the west room upstairs were replaced with new ones by grandma. Gu Lixia couldn't find the quilt that Lu Jinchu and Lu Jinchu made together before, couldn't find the sheets they slept on together, and couldn't find them. They slept together on pillows, but they dreamed of Lu Jinchu every night, dreamed that Lu Jinchu hated herself to the core, dreamed that Lu Jinchu had another lover, dreamed of...

Dreaming back in the middle of the night, the moment he woke up with a start, Li Xia finally couldn't help covering his eyes and weeping silently.

He thought of Lu Jinchu, and his heart ached.

Lixia returned to England very quickly. Winter went to spring, everything in England revived, and everything became warmer. The green lawn, various flowers, and the vast blue sky, the ancient and beautiful river in this quiet small The town flows quietly.

Lixia has no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery on a good day, and is so focused on her studies that she is busy every day without touching the ground, like a wheel that will never stop.

Brittany felt incredible when she saw Lixia. She had never seen such a diligent and hardworking person in her experience since she was a child. Not only Brittany was surprised, but even the professor was very surprised. Such a thin young man The workload and what he did every day shocked the professor.

The professor thinks that Lixia is a material that can be made, and he is really moved by Lixia, so he often gives Lixia a lot of guidance and insights to inspire his thinking.

Li Xia studied desperately, as if he was crazy, as if he was masturbating himself.

Others say that Li Xia is going to die, but only Li Xia knows, only by forcing himself to study, draw pictures, and think about some problems, so that he will not suddenly think of someone when he is free, and then his heart will be pulled alive Pain, it is much more uncomfortable than studying.

Summer is here, but Lixia has become thinner. Although he is trying to eat more and exercise for a while every day, he is still very thin. It seems that a gust of wind can blow people away.

Eating, reading, drawing, exercising, day after day.

Spring goes and autumn comes, winter is long, and the four seasons reincarnate, time is light but long.

Lixia got used to the wet and rainy weather in England, got used to his mischievous uncertainty, got used to his foggy ambiguity, got used to this kind of weather where the sun can’t be seen, as if he could hide in the thick fog.

The misty black forest, the swans playing by the small town lake, the hearty performances of buskers on the street, the hissing shouts in the campus, a little sunlight that occasionally penetrates the fog, and the table is full of drawings.

At two or three o'clock in the morning, I was in a daze facing the dark night. I was exhausted to the extreme, but I couldn't fall asleep. I tried my best to draw pictures until my eyes were dry and painful. The sky brightened up little by little.

When my stomach was cramping countless times, when I suddenly dreamed of the past again, when I woke up from a big dream and found myself in a foreign country...

Glittering, time drifts by, as the river in the small town meanders forward, quietly passing away in the lingering fear of waking up in countless dreams, slipping away in the grass-growing warblers in spring, in the heavy fog in winter dissipated in.

It's spring, and it's winter again.

Lixia has been shrinking in her own thick shell and walking alone.

If you are sick, you can just carry it over. Like a stubborn and awkward child, he refuses to let others explore a little bit of his heart, and self-abuse learning like competing with himself is incompatible with other people.

I don't know what I want to do, I just know that if I don't do it, I may collapse in an instant.

Brittany likes Lixia, it is the kind of liking from the bottom of her heart, straightforward and enthusiastic, with the vigor and vitality unique to adolescent students, she can't see Lixia torturing herself like this, every time she asks Lixia to go out to play, Lixia almost always refuses .

"Listen, you can't do this, you shouldn't be like this." Brittany looked at Li Xia, staring straight at him, straightforward and eager.

Li Xia didn't know what to say, "Sorry, I don't want to go out."

"Xia, please, you need to go, Dad said that your credits are enough, you don't need to bury your head in the book anymore, come and play with me, you have been here for a year and haven't gone out to play. "

Finally, under Brittany's countless pleadings to act like a baby, Li Xia really couldn't stand the countless moves of a girl, so he thought about it and followed.

A few years later, Li Xia was very grateful that Brittany saved her back then, if she hadn't pestered her time and time again to go out and play together, maybe the self at that time would have completely rotted in her shell, numb, Sinking, sinking bit by bit.

This sunny and youthful girl from a foreign country, with a boy with deep brows, travels together in this ancient city.

On the London Eye, the Ferris wheel built to welcome the millennium, at dusk, they saw the beautiful sunset together, and Li Xia suddenly felt a tremor in his heart. Seeing it at night, the London Eye exudes a dreamy atmosphere, a huge blue sky The color halo sets off the Thames River beautifully.

Brittany said happily, "It's beautiful, isn't it?"

Li Xia nodded dully.

Under Big Ben, this classical and gorgeous clock tower, under the illumination of night lights, Big Ben is quietly lying in the night sky. Through the glass, you can clearly see the ticking and ticking of the hour and minute hands, as if you can see through the time The long years.

"May every minute and every second of this hour, God guide me forward, and with the power of the Lord, bless my people with peace."

Li Xia stared at Big Ben for a long time, until his eyes became dry.

Time slips away bit by bit with the pointer. How many people in this world leave nothing in the long river of time, but are exhausted by it.

In Westminster Abbey, this magnificent and holy and noble Catholic church, the architectural style of Huali makes Li Xia's mood no longer calm.

Typical Gothic architecture, with countless spiers inlaid with stained glass juxtaposed together, chic and moving, the fan-shaped domed roof design of the chapel, decorated with colorful banners of knightly medals in the Middle Ages, and large stained glass windows around it, splendid The colors are dazzling, and there are many funnel-shaped flower decorations hanging from the vault, which are so exquisite that the viewers are all amazed.

Breathtakingly beautiful.

Li Xia's eyes seemed to be blind, Brittany looked at Li Xia and said with a smile, "I knew you liked it."

Brittany took him to Buckingham Palace and Tower Bridge in London. It was very rare to see the Mist Lock Bridge. The London Bridge loomed under the mist. The beautiful and spectacular sight made everyone around exclaim.

In the British Museum, tall Roman-style columns, huge reliefs, majestic, and spectacular architectural design make people feel as if they have been hit hard in their hearts when they look at it. There is a kind of beauty that is impressed by history. pop up.

In the Egyptian Museum, one of the largest exhibition halls, there are large life statues, temple buildings, numerous mummies, inscriptions and murals. These ancient Egyptian arts are dazzling.

In the Museum of Oriental Art and Cultural Relics, Lixia saw the peerless collections of ancient China, from the bronzes of Shang and Zhou Dynasties to the porcelain of Tang and Song Dynasties, the gold and jade of Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the murals of Dunhuang... All these made Lixia deeply moved. At this moment, the picture came alive, and suddenly there was a feeling of the passage of time and the vicissitudes of the world.

In Windsor Castle, there is a very typical English town nearby, and English-style cottages can be seen everywhere, with pastoral flowers and colorful shades, almost all natural landscapes, quiet green spaces and forests, quietly flowing lakes and rivers, from time to time There are small animals passing by in a hurry, the beauty is natural and very pleasant.

Brittany and Lixia stayed in a small hotel nearby, and Brittany excitedly told Lixia the history of Windsor Castle, the romantic legend of how King Edward VIII loved beautiful women instead of Jiangshang, and how they were vigorous and not favored by the world But stay together until the old love story.

Lixia looks at the scenery outside through the window. The grass outside is covered with a layer of shiny gold at dusk. The river is sparkling, and the swans are swimming leisurely on the lake. Light, like the imprint left by the years of the Middle Ages.

Because of such a beautiful legend, the castle shines brightly and is coated with a romantic atmosphere, which makes everyone feel a lot of emotion and sigh.

Li Xia was in a daze, thinking with a wry smile, if possible, I would also want a beauty, but the beauty is long gone.

Brittany suddenly excitedly pointed to a place outside the window and shouted, "Hey, Xia, look! There is a beautiful Chinese man over there, he is singing, I don't know what song it is? It seems to be a Chinese song, it's so nice... "

Li Xia was in a trance, and looked in the direction of her finger. At this moment, Li Xia froze, he was stunned, and then his heart beat wildly.

Crack—the water glass in his hand shattered on the floor.

Li Xia ran out like crazy.

How can it be?is it him?is it him?
