Rebirth on top

The moving train passes by a large area of ​​scenery, and when night falls, there is only chaos mixed with dim lights in front of you.

Zhou Yang slept soundly that night, perhaps because he was familiar with the place he was about to arrive, so he could relax.

After more than ten hours of travel, he saw Wang Jiamu as soon as he got out of the station. The man was dressed casually, and at first glance he looked like a young man still studying.

Wang Jiamu waved at Zhou Yang. Zhou Yang originally wanted to have a bear hug with him, but he couldn't hug him at all because of the big bags in his hands.Instead, Wang Jiamu hugged Zhou Yang, and then took the things in his hand.

"Why so many? Didn't you just come back for a few days?"

"It's all for you and Xiao Le, and it's a rare one." Zhou Yang fanned the wind with his hands, Qingshan Town is still so hot...

"You're alone, it's so inconvenient on the train." Wang Jiamu nagged at him as before, "Take care of yourself outside."

Knowing this person's temper, Zhou Yang had no choice but to listen obediently, nodding cooperatively from time to time.

After arriving at Wang Jiamu's house, he couldn't wait to take a shower, and when he came out, he slumped on the sofa with his damp hair and had breakfast, and all his fatigue disappeared.

Wang Jiamu sat across from him, and the two of them chatted while eating.

"Why didn't I join you this poetry evening?"

"He, he wants to work part-time during the summer vacation, and he has agreed with his classmates." Zhou Yang gnawed on the bread, and said vaguely, "I guess he won't be able to come back until the winter vacation."

"That's right," Wang Jiamu understood. He smiled, but his smile was a little lonely. "He has always been like that. Now that he has gone to a big city, he should be happier than being here."

Zhou Yang understood the other party's thoughts. After all, we had been together in the bar for a long time before, so there must be feelings for each other.So he comforted, "It's not like what you said. Shiwan also mentioned that he wanted to come back to see you and his grandma. But the school is also busy, and working during the summer vacation is also to lighten the burden on his parents."

Wang Jiamu nodded and changed the subject, "How are you in Beijing? Every time you call, you say it's fine." Refilling Zhou Yang's empty glass with milk, he said, "You—even if something happens, don't worry about it." Will say. Are you really doing well?"

"It's really good." Zhou Yang paused, and still didn't mention Lu Xie's affairs, nor did he mention that he might go to study, but just said, "Don't worry about me, anyway, I'm just focusing on waiting for Hua Chen's activities now. "

They hadn't seen each other for a while, and they were chatting, but most of the time had passed.Wang Jiamu asked Zhou Yang, "Are you going to live with your aunt after a few days?"

Zhou Yang was so annoyed by Wu Shufang that he took it for granted that he would not go back, so he said, "I'm just going to find a hotel to live in casually, and I don't want to see that woman."

Wang Jiamu frowned upon hearing this, "Look for a hotel, just stay with me, don't bother."

……Not so good?Zhou Yang was a little tangled, after all, Wang Jiamu was not single, he had been married for several years.If I really want to live here, wouldn't it be an extra-large wattage light bulb?In order not to be disgusted by others, it is better for him to be more conscious.

In the end, there was no other way, Wang Jiamu told Zhou Yang to go directly to the bar and forget it, "Anyway, there are rooms on the second floor of the store, with air-conditioned beds and everything. It's just a few days, you can stay here, don't worry about it."

The original intention was not to trouble the other party, but it seemed hypocritical to keep refusing, so Zhou Yang stopped saying anything.

Wang Jiamu's bar is still the same, with a silent stage in the center and neatly arranged seats.But it's not surprising, I haven't been here for long, how can this place change?

There were no guests in the afternoon, so Zhou Yang sat alone on the sofa facing the stage for a while.He suddenly thought of Lu Xie. That night, the other party seemed to be sitting... in this position, right?Sit here and watch yourself.

At this moment, Zhou Yang quietly sat on the seat where that person used to sit, looking at the empty stage, thoughtful.

After a long time, he finally got up.

Unlike the darkness in the bar, it happened to be sunny outside.

After finding a public phone booth, Zhou Yang dialed a familiar number.After connecting, there was a regular "beep-beep-" sound, and after a while, he said with a child's unique crisp voice, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

******

A row of willow trees are planted outside the wall of Qingshan Primary School, and the thin willows sway when the breeze blows.On the long wooden chair enjoying the cool, there is an old man playing chess to avoid the summer heat, drinking tea while waving a fan, chatting about homework from time to time.

Not long after Zhou Yang arrived, he saw a boy in a white cartoon T-shirt and khaki shorts running towards him from a distance.He ran very fast, and when he saw Zhou Yang, he wished he had two hot wheels on his legs, "Brother——"

"Why are you running?" Zhou Yang caught the little guy who ran into his arms, pinched his face, and said, "The big sun is still running, aren't you afraid of heatstroke?"

Zhou Xunle didn't care at all, he stared closely at Zhou Yang for a long time with his big bright eyes, and then said, "You're finally back!"

"Come back to see you." Zhou Yang hugged him to a chair and sat down, while he looked at Zhou Xunle carefully, "I'm not thin...but I'm not fat either. How are you doing recently?"

"Okay!" Zhou Xunle patted his small chest proudly, "I have kept the record of not having injections for two weeks!" He turned and said pitifully, "But I miss you very much. Didn't you say that you would visit me often? Is it?"

Zhou Yang touched his head, "I have to make money."

"I'll help you earn money together!"

"You're making a lot of money." Zhou Yang said after tapping his forehead with his fingers, "Study hard for me! If you do well in the exam, I will give you a little more reward. By the way, I brought you some fun from Beijing this time." Yes, do you want to go and see?"

"I don't want it," Zhou Xunle held Zhou Yang again, "I just want you to come back and see me."

Zhou Yang made fun of him, "You are about to go to junior high school, how are you, kid?"

"Hmm..." Zhou Xunle was very depressed, but he didn't want to be angry with his brother, so he asked slowly, "Then how long are you staying?"

"Well, I can only stay for four days this time."

"Four days?" Zhou Xunle was very disappointed. Of course he also knew that Zhou Yang had to work, so he didn't pester him to stay, and even held back his willful words.It's just that I'm still so depressed... Four days, only four days...

How could Zhou Yang not understand what the brat beside him was thinking, there was no way around it.Promising to be with each other for the next few days, Zhou Xunle was a little happier.

In the evening, after learning that Wu Shufang didn't come back so soon after going out to play mahjong, Zhou Yang took Zhou Xunle and Wang Jiamu to have a meal together, and the atmosphere was really good.

After eating, they quarreled together for a while. Seeing that it was almost time, Zhou Yang sent Zhou Xunle home first. Before parting, the two made an appointment to continue playing again the next day.

In the past few days in Qingshan Town, Zhou Yang hardly had time to relax. He either ran around with his younger brother or sang for Wang Jiamu.After hearing Zhou Yang's voice, many guests recognized him and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a few months, so I thought you were gone? Where are you doing now?"

Zhou Yang would also respond one by one with a smile.

After he and Shi Wan left, a new singer also came to the bar. It was a girl with a pointed chin, petite and quiet, but she had a gloomy voice when she sang.She likes to sing old jazz and slowly strum that old guitar.

After two days like this, it was originally agreed that I would be with Zhou Xunle for the next few days, but Wu Shufang decided to take her son to a poker friend's house on a whim, so even though Zhou Xunle was reluctant, she couldn't refute anything .

When Zhou Xunle on the other end of the phone said in a low voice that he could not come out tomorrow, Zhou Yang comforted, "It doesn't matter, anyway, I won't leave tomorrow, and I will still be there the day after tomorrow."

After repeated promises like this several times, a certain difficult little devil finally gave up and hung up the phone with peace of mind.

Zhou Yang said depressedly: As expected, the bigger the thing, the harder it is to coax...

Zhou Xunle was not here, and Zhou Yang was not idle either.He woke up early, packed up, and took the bus to visit a person he missed very much.

In the Qingshan Cemetery, the birds are chirping non-stop, and the lush greenery is tenaciously surviving beside the tombstone. The first ray of sunlight shines directly into this cemetery.

Gently placing the flowers in his arms in front of her, Zhou Yang wiped the tombstone carefully as before. He knew that she loved cleanliness the most.

Every time he leaves or comes back, he never forgets to visit her, not to mention that tomorrow is her birthday.

The cakes and fruits were arranged one by one, and Zhou Yang burned some paper money for her. "I'm leaving again in two days, and I may not be able to see you until the Chinese New Year next time."

"Don't miss me too much." The smoke blurred his eyes, Zhou Yang looked at her gradually hazy face, and smiled, "Don't always worry about me."

He broke through the empty air barrier, reached out and hugged the tombstone, and lowered his eyes and said, "I'm doing well now."

It's night, noisy bars, psychedelic music, it doesn't take a few hours to go from bustling to quiet.

Zhou Yang sat in a dark corner, watching the carnival that slowly settled turned into dust, and then disappeared into nothingness.The dance floor became empty, and the remaining temperature on the sofa began to cool down.

The guests are all gone, and it's time for him to lock the door and go to sleep.

But now, Zhou Yang still doesn't want to sleep.

He turned off all the headlights in the bar, leaving only a few orange wall lamps.

The surroundings were quiet, Zhou Yang walked up the steps and stood in the middle of the stage.

Everything is silent, this is his time——

"Now..." he said into the microphone, "Now, it's two o'clock in the morning. Another day begins."

There was no one in the audience, but Zhou Yang was very involved. He became very playful and said very seriously, "Today is the birthday of a very important person of mine. Dear Ms. Fang Fuyao, your son will present you Sing a song. Cough...!"

Bowing to the empty seat, Zhou Yang straightened up with a smile on his face, "He still has something to say to you."

Holding the microphone, he lowered his head slightly, as if he was preparing for something, and seemed a little nervous.After a while, he finally said softly and softly, "Mom, happy birthday."

Lips parted, he sang one of the man's favorite songs——

Green grass, white mist

There is a beautiful woman on the side of the water

Green grass is luxuriant, white mist is blurred

There is a beautiful woman who lives by water

Singing softly and softly, Zhou Yang always lowered his head, he was focused and tender.This is a song that is too familiar to be familiar with.It was also the song I sang when I met Lu Xie for the first time.

What was the scene like at that time...

Can't remember much.

But it seems to be similar to today.

The only profound thing is when I finish singing this song and raise my head...

Memories and reality overlapped, Zhou Yang raised his eyes with a smile, this was just a subconscious action.He looked in the direction where the two met for the first time.Immediately afterwards, in the next second, he could no longer take his eyes off——

The syllables in the throat stopped abruptly.

Facing the bottom of the stage, the person standing quietly enjoyed the midnight singing in a quiet and silent manner.

Zhou Yang couldn't make any response, he just looked at the people in the audience stupidly, his mind was blank.

It took a long time, until the other party approached him step by step, Zhou Yang finally came back to his senses.

He let go of the microphone and walked towards that person, but he still felt like he was dreaming.Along the way, I didn't even notice that I tripped over the speaker wires.

He just wanted to walk over to the other side quickly to see if this was a midnight hallucination.

The lights were too dim and he was too eager.It was only a few steps, which seemed to be full of obstacles.

But Zhou Yang didn't care at all, he watched the man's figure ups and downs under the light, he wanted to call out the man's name but it was as if he lost his voice.

Until the distance between the two was shortened a little bit.They finally stopped.

Zhou Yang asked him, "Why... are you here?"

The lights and shadows are flickering, and the reality is mottled.

The man who came out of the darkness and bathed in the warm light had a pair of impressive beautiful eyes. He said, "I just miss you very much," and laughed, "Maybe you think it's strange for me to be like this."

Zhou Yang's hands were shaking all the time, but he didn't notice it himself.

"Not surprising..." However, his voice was choked up, he calmed down and took a deep breath, "Not surprising..."

Zhou Yang has never been so determined, he said, "Because I miss you too, Lu Xie."
