song for the city

It took two days from Nanchuan to Day City, which was long enough for Liang Zhang to get rid of some of the things that bound him.

For example, the supplementary materials that almost surpassed his height, or the lamp in front of his desk in Nanchuan at two o'clock in the morning.

People are born with an umbilical cord and rely on their mothers to breathe.After landing, I cut the umbilical cord, broke the bond with my mother, and breathed on my own.Liang Zhang felt that he had never really breathed in the past 17 years of his life. Now that he left home, he really broke the umbilical cord and lived a full life.

There was an aunt on the lower bunk of Liang Zhang, she was quite easy-going, and seeing that the two boys got along well, she suggested that Liang Zhang and her change beds, directly opposite to Xiang Pei's.

In fact, it's not that they get along well, it's just that Liang Zhang is too boring, simply speaking, he is too idle and wants to talk to someone, and there is only Xiang Pei, who is his age, so he has no choice but to talk to him.But Xiang Pei's words were really pitiful, and it didn't seem like he was deliberately putting on airs and ignoring people, but it felt like he didn't know what to say.

Liang Zhang had to reflect on whether he was too boring.

The train at four o'clock in the morning was quiet, everyone was asleep in the fatigue of the journey, the only sound in the carriage was the sound of the train running on the track, from weak to strong, knocking on Liang Zhang's heart.He lay on the bed, opened his eyes to see the darkness above his head, and panicked for no reason, probably because the surroundings were too quiet, so quiet that he felt that he was the only one on the train, and everything was extremely empty.

It has to be admitted that Liang Zhang is somewhat afraid of the unknown future, and what will happen in the road ahead is simply unpredictable.But the sense of longing that followed immediately suppressed the fear deeply.

Liang Zhang was fed nutritious meals since he was a child, and he grew tall. The bed was a bit narrow for him, and his limbs were relaxed and uncomfortable when he lay on it.His body was sweating again, he jumped up from the bed, and inadvertently saw a faint light on his left hand.

Xiang Pei was also awake.

Just like seeing another survivor on an isolated island, Liang Zhang lowered his voice and called out softly.After hearing the shout, Xiang Pei turned his head.In the dark, his eyes are as bright as a lamp, with the magic power to see through everything.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

After answering Xiang Pei, Liang Zhang immediately regretted it.Facing Xiang Pei's gaze, he didn't know what to say as if his throat was stuck.

After murmuring for a long time, Liang Zhang asked, "You can't sleep either?"

Is not this nonsensical?Whoever lies down with staring eyes at four o'clock in the morning is a sign of sleep.Liang Zhang was once again fooled by himself.

"Ah."

The expected reaction, Liang Zhang pursed his mouth and lay back on the bed, not going to answer the conversation, too lazy to make fun of himself.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Pei suddenly asked softly: "What does Day City look like in your imagination?"

The light passing by outside the car window was like a wandering cloud, constantly floating past Liang Zhang's eyes, and the appearance of Day City also slipped quietly in his mind.

Regarding the appearance of Day City, Liang Zhang had fantasized about it countless times, and his vague concept of this city only came from the movies.

The daytime city on the screen is very beautiful, especially the nighttime, which is so beautiful that it is almost illusory. The flickering lights form a sea, which seems to make people hang in the air.

Xiang Pei is from Day City, so it stands to reason that he knows the appearance of Day City better than him.Liang Zhang was a little surprised to ask Pei Hui this question. After thinking for a long time, he settled his words: "There are many famous directors and singers in Day City, and many movies like to be shot there...a movie I especially like It is about Day City, and the filming of Day City is particularly beautiful, and it feels like the source of art. My classmate’s house only has a disc, and I secretly watched that movie many times at his house.”

Liang Zhang didn't have DVDs at home, and he didn't even turn on the TV often. He could only sneak to his classmates' homes to watch movies under the pretext of doing homework, and he also wanted to prevent his parents from knowing.

Most of his strange obsession with Day City comes from that movie.

After listening to Pei in silence, he said, "Isn't Nanchuan beautiful?"

"Nanchuan is quieter, and everyone's life is very slow. My parents can sit at the mahjong table for an afternoon, and then the day will pass."

Nanchuan's beauty is too restrained, and Liang Zhang always feels that it is not a greenhouse suitable for the development of dreams.

Xiang Pei lay sideways on the bed, with his palms on his cheeks and his elbows on the bed, as if he was thinking about something, but of course Liang Zhang couldn't figure it out.

"Actually, Day City is not that beautiful. To some extent, it is very sinful."

Liang Zhang said a lot before, and recalled many things, and gradually he became sleepy. He couldn't hear Xiang Pei's words clearly, so he didn't take it to heart, and just asked casually, "Why do you say that?"

"Because you'll never get it."

With his eyes half-closed, Liang Zhang seemed to hear Xiang Pei humming.But at the end of the melody, the singing seemed not to come from Xiang Pei's voice, but from Liang Zhang's mind.Xiang Pei's voice was like a shadow hanging in the air, Liang Zhang could only see its appearance clearly in his dreams.

The air conditioner was turned on on the train. When Liang Zhang woke up, his entire upper body was exposed. He was always warm, but now he was blown a little cold.He hurriedly pulled up the quilt and covered it. After a while, he looked at his watch and found that it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.

There are still about four hours to reach Day City, Liang Zhang couldn't contain his excitement, got up from the bed, and subconsciously glanced at the bed next to him.

Xiang Pei wasn't on the bunk, the bed was neat and tidy, as if no one had ever slept on it.

Liang Zhang bought the cheapest box lunch on the train, but he still thought it was expensive.As the saying goes, money must be spent wisely, no matter how you say it, he will have to stay in Day City for a few months, the biggest goal is not to starve to death.

Anyway, most people in the world can survive at the bottom of society, even if they live like ants, at least they are still breathing.What I am most afraid of is living in a dark corner, my heart is blank, and I have no hope of sprouting.Liang Zhang felt that he at least had a dream. Although this dream was still out of reach for him now, he always resisted his past life and his parents.

As long as you take the first step, you will have more confidence in the road ahead.

However, Liang Zhang caught a cold before he reached Day City.

In the beginning, the snot kept flowing down the nose, and the air was blocked uncomfortably. It seemed that a large ball of cotton was squeezed inside, making the nasal cavity watery.After eating, Liang Zhang started to feel dizzy, probably because he really caught a cold last night.

Liang Zhang sat on the bed and blew his nose, using a lot of white paper.He put a plastic bag and threw all the paper in it.

When Xiang Pei came back, he saw Liang Zhang struggling, and felt that his red nose was pitiful and funny, so he couldn't help shrugging the corners of his mouth: "Cold in summer?"

"I kicked the quilt yesterday." Liang Zhang dragged his sticky throat, and the ending sound was rustling, as if someone was pinching his nostrils to speak.

After speaking, he took a deep breath, and the wave of snot came out fiercely. Liang Zhang pulled a piece of paper helplessly, put his hands on his nose and started exerting force.

Too stupid.Xiang Pei had a panoramic view of this series of actions, and couldn't help sighing from the bottom of his heart.

Xiang Pei stopped smiling, took off his coat and threw it to Liang Zhang: "Wear it," he sat back on the bed, "You don't have a coat in your suitcase?"

"Yes, but it's hot, so I don't think I need to take it out."

After hearing this, Xiang Pei reached out to take back his coat: "Then you wear your own."

Seeing that Xiang Pei was going to take back his coat, Liang Zhang was inexplicably reluctant, and immediately shrank his hands back. After doing this, he was startled, and he didn't know where this nonsensical reluctance came from.

Even Xiang Pei didn't insist on coming back.

Xiang Pei's skin is fair, and the existence of dark circles is more obvious.When he met Pei the first day, the dark circles under his eyes were not so deep. It seems that he might not have slept all night yesterday.Liang Zhang tightly wrapped Pei's coat and asked, "Do you have something on your mind?"

Thinking that he went to talk to Pei first last night, but slept soundly than anyone else afterwards, Liang Zhang felt embarrassed.

Xiang Pei didn't answer, but bypassed the question and said, "Have you brought cold medicine?"

Liang Zhang nodded and said yes.

"Then take a pill and sleep. When you wake up, you will probably be in Day City."

What Xiang Pei said was right, when Liang Zhang woke up, the radio had already started to inform the passengers to pack their luggage, and Day City was coming soon.

The appearance of Day City outside the window has begun to take shape. It has a completely different atmosphere from Nanchuan, fresh and full of temptation.

The aunt on the upper bunk packed her luggage, turned to Liang Zhang with a smile and asked, "Why did you come to Day City alone?"

In order to cause unnecessary trouble, Liang Zhang chose to lie, his eyes dodged a few times, and he replied: "My mother works here."

The aunt suddenly realized: "Day City is very beautiful, you can go shopping more."

Liang Zhang dragged the suitcase out, echoing: "I know, it's beautiful."

After taking the cold medicine, his mind relaxed a lot, and Liang Zhang stepped on the land of Day City, feeling happy.

No one here knows him, no one can find him, and I will never read a book until the early morning, and get up from bed again at 05:30 in the morning.

Xiang Pei got out of the car after him. He didn't bring a suitcase. He only had a black backpack on his shoulder. It was still very deflated and probably didn't hold much.There was a scorching sun outside, and his earrings shone dazzlingly under the sun. Liang Zhang couldn't help squinting his eyes slightly, and then widened them to look at Pei: "It's a pleasure to meet you."

He nodded to Pei Chong, and didn't express whether he was happy or not, and he was still as cool as when we first met.But Liang Zhang didn't feel embarrassed anymore, maybe Xiang Pei had this personality, but he definitely wasn't like that in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't have given Liang Zhang bread and a coat.

Although Xiang Pei didn't show any special emotions, Liang Zhang thought that at least he wouldn't hate himself.

He waved to Pei Chong and left a polite message: "See you by fate, Liang Zhang."

As soon as the words fell, Xiang Pei left without looking back, leaving only a chic back.

There are a lot of people coming out of the train station, densely packed like several layers of grains, working together to move forward and roll around.Soon, Xiang Pei's back disappeared into the crowd, and he couldn't even find his hair.

Maybe Liang Zhang will never meet Xiang Pei again in his life, he is a bit disappointed, after all Xiang Pei is the first person he met in Day City.

However, he was very lucky, and he met very good people when he came here, which also made him full of expectations for the next life.

Liang Zhang dragged his suitcase and walked forward. After walking a while, he found that Xiang Pei's coat was still hanging in his arm.

Mint lingers on the soft black coat.
