[full-time master] immortal

Although Mucheng invited me to spend the night at Excellent Era's staff dormitory, it's not convenient for Excellent Era to have too many people, and Mucheng is still planning to continue the dungeon with Ye Xiu, so I declined Mucheng politely because I don't want to disturb them. I opened a room at the All Seasons Hotel near Excellent Era and Xingxin.

Eight years ago, the location of this all-season hotel was a COCO milk tea shop.When the new store opens, it is always full of joy and joy, and the second cup is half price for several days in a row.That year coincided with the summer vacation of my sophomore and senior year in high school, and Mucheng and I always passed by on our way to Hangtu every day.There is a commercial street near my high school, and at least six or seven milk tea shops have opened. I am already tired of drinking COCO milk tea.But this is the first time for Mucheng to see a milk tea shop with this big-eyed logo.So, one night when delivering meals to Su Muqiu and Ye Xiu, we stopped by and bought four cups of milk tea, put them in plastic bags and sent them to the internet cafe.

"What the hell is this?" Just after getting the milk tea, Su Muqiu's first reaction was disgust, "This thing is old and unhealthy."

"Drink it once in a while, it's fine." Seeing no surprise, Ye Xiu took out two cups of milk tea from the plastic bag, turned the cup and glanced at the label, "Here, I'll give you three parts of the sugar, it's healthy. "

Su Muqiu took the milk tea with a frown, and when he saw the label, his face became even more ugly: "It's too expensive, it's more than ten yuan a cup, no family can afford it. I think the afternoon milk tea in convenience stores is only Three or four yuan a bottle, what's the difference between this and this?" He turned his head and looked at me, "Xiaoqing, don't keep buying such expensive things for Mucheng...you've spoiled her." Su Muqiu's words This immediately attracted Mucheng's protest.

I laughed so hard that I rolled my eyes: what, it is obvious that he is the one who spoiled Mucheng. Isn’t this a thief calling for a thief?

"I'm doing activities now, it's cheap." I comforted him with a smile.

Although his mouth was dissatisfied, Su Muqiu's body still inserted the straw into the lid of the cup honestly, and carefully picked up the black pearls at the bottom of the cup, trying to find out why this ordinary cup of milk tea is so expensive.I rested my chin and stared at him, my heart filled with joy.I like to see how serious and focused he is in his work.

It just so happened that the Excellent Era Internet Cafe dispatched a power outage that night, so Su Muqiu and Ye Xiu had to put aside the game and go home early.Holding the lunch box, he reluctantly opened the equipment interface, took a last look at his precious Myriad Manifestation Umbrella, and then reluctantly quit the game and pulled out the game card.The four of us walked home together on a midsummer evening.The evening wind in summer is gentle and gratifying, driving away the heat, but without a trace of chill, it warmly pounces on the face and body, like a long hug.The people and ghosts coming and going were all shrouded in an unbelievably gentle arc.I seized the opportunity and took the two strong men to the supermarket to buy daily necessities such as roll paper and laundry detergent.After walking out of the supermarket, we bought two magazines that Mucheng and I like to read at the nearby newsstand.Two 17-year-old boys walked in front carrying large and small plastic bags, while Mucheng and I, one holding "Sprout" and the other "Xinlei", followed behind them with a chuckle.

Let the night gradually soak the sky, and our summer is long and endless.

This was once the best picture of youth in my memory.

Today, even the ruins of this youth no longer exist.

I checked in with a very melancholy mood, and sent the room number to Ye Xiu, asking him to guide Su Muqiu to return to this address.Just now Ye Xiu suggested that he wanted to talk to Su Muqiu alone, so I temporarily left Su Muqiu with Ye Xiu.I don't know what words between Ye Xiu and Su Muqiu need to avoid me, and without my conveyance, Ye Xiu is destined to talk to himself in the void.

I can't figure it out, so I just stop thinking about it.

When I finished washing and walked out of the bathroom, I found that Su Muqiu had returned to the room, sitting by the window looking at the brightly lit city in a daze, leaving me with a thin and lonely back.Hearing my voice, he turned his head and smiled at me: "The night is not bad."

"What did Ye Xiu whisper to you just now?" I asked him casually while twisting my hair with a dry towel from the hotel.My question is a bit funny when I think about it. Since I know it is a whisper, why bother to ask?

"It's nothing, I told some old friends, Brother Tao... and so on." Unexpectedly, he actually answered.

I sat down on the edge of the bed, half-dry, half-wet hair drooping weakly on my shoulders: "There's no need to avoid me saying that, Tao Xuan is really not kind, and that little red guy Liu Hao, if I If he is here, he can scold him with you."

Su Muqiu laughed, and there was some sadness in his smile: "I don't know what happened to Brother Tao in the past few years, he...has changed a lot." He scratched his head, and continued, "Actually, Ye Xiu also Well, Mucheng is also good, everyone has changed a lot. Most people are getting better, but some people are getting worse."

"What about me?" I asked him.

He raised his face to look at me, my figure was reflected in his clear eyes.He replied seriously: "Xiaoqing, of course you are getting better."

He said, actually, when he saw that Mucheng inherited Muyuchengfeng, he felt a little sad.He looked at Mucheng and me today, and couldn't help but imagine how Mucheng would grow up if he hadn't encountered any accidents.He tilted his head and speculated: "She is very smart, and she has such a good example like you, she will definitely learn well...Maybe she can follow you into Z University and become a female college student."

I laughed, sat cross-legged on the bed, and followed his imagination, saying: "Mucheng is smarter than me, so of course she can become a female college student. Z University is not enough, maybe I can go to the capital to go to P University or T University .”

As the voice fell, I suddenly remembered: In fact, as early as seven and a half years ago, we imagined together the scenery after many years.

In the summer after the end of my third year of high school, I carried my luggage and came to Hangzhou to report on time.I heard before that the rules of the Glory game have been changed, and Su Muqiu's year-long research on the Thousand Manifestations Umbrella and the unattended gameplay has come to naught.When the incident happened, I was far away in Shanghai, and I was in the dark for the college entrance examination. There was nothing I could do, so I could only make a phone call, but I couldn't say a few words. I felt that I didn't give any substantive comfort.When I came to Hangzhou with apprehension after the exam, I found that he had already turned the page calmly.He let go of Lord Grim's and Thousand Chance Umbrella's regrets, and was happily negotiating the conditions with Ye Xiu to join Team Excellent Era, becoming the first batch of Glory professional players to eat crabs.That summer, everyone's future seemed to be neat and proper, and the Su family's hut was suddenly shrouded in a thriving and joyful mood.

Seeing me coming, Su Muqiu took the initiative to invite Ying to cook to reward me, the top student who just finished the college entrance examination.He said that Mucheng was in the third year of middle school the year before, and he didn't dare to disturb his sister's study, so he and Ye Xiu figured out how to cook by themselves.Over the past year, his culinary skills have improved a lot.Today he is going to show me how to cook his specialty West Lake Vinegar Fish.I saw him wearing Mucheng's pink apron, washing and dissecting fish in a decent manner, which made me and Ye Xiu, two people who wanted to help him, seem a bit redundant.

"Xiaoqing, what do you think of the exam?" Su Muqiu was distracted and asked me while carefully pouring the prepared ingredients into the pot.

"I don't know, and I don't have the right answer either." I shrugged and gave an ambiguous answer.Su Muqiu may not know, but for the group of us who have been scrambling in the report card for many years, there is such an unwritten metaphysics - before the test results are actually released, we must not talk too much.Even if you feel that you have done very well, exceptionally well, or invincibly well in the exam, you should smile humbly and say, oh, I don’t know.

In fact, I know that I should do well in the exam.

Before Liang Xiucai went to Beijing, the imperial examination system was abolished in the Qing Dynasty. He was hit hard, and within a few years he fell ill, and finally became what he is now.As a result, Beijing became the place he was most worried about.He always hoped that I could go to P University or T University to fulfill his capital dream.

Unfortunately, I am a traitor.I have no feelings for Beijing, but I want to go back to Hangzhou wholeheartedly.From my point of view, Shanghai is just a short journey in my life. Hangzhou with Su Muqiu is my real hometown.At that time, the Shanghai college entrance examination still filled in the volunteers before the exam, so I filled in the universities in Hangzhou in every blank volunteer column.Grandpa has no objection to this - I have accumulated a number of regular customers during the winter and summer vacations in Hangzhou in the past few years. Anyway, he is still able to move his old bones, so he is happy to see me open a restaurant in Hangzhou first. Years of branch training workouts.

The college entrance examination was uneventful that year.It is said that the physics examination room next door was full of mourning, ghosts and wolves howling, but I was the lucky one who did not choose physics, and my wife filled out every answer sheet without a hitch.The only thing that baffles me is a super-classic dictation question in Chinese. I looked at the sentence "Tonight and Hexi" on the question stem, but I could only think of the lyrics of "Time Boils the Rain" - "Green Grass Lili" .At that time, I raised my head, looked at Liang Xiucai beside the examination room, and cast a little help-seeking look.Liang Xiucai was still angry at me for not filling out my application in Beijing. She let out a cold snort from her nose, pretended not to see me, and walked away with her arms folded.Seeing that I couldn’t ask for help, I thought that this question only had 1 point anyway, and it would be a pity to lose it, so I lowered my head and continued to answer other questions.When the exam was about to end, Liang Xiucai walked unsteadily to my side, coughed lightly, and muttered in a mosquito-like voice, my beloved.

My mind was moved, and I immediately turned to the blank dictation column just now, and wrote the correct answer according to Liang Xiucai's prompt: Tonight and what evening, seeing this beloved man?

After walking out of the examination room, I turned on my phone and searched for the original poem with the feeling of remaining alive after the catastrophe.For some reason, this poem from the "Book of Songs" described a thousand years ago, the star-like man, easily reminded me of Su Muqiu.

What evening is this evening?See this good man?Zixi, Zixi, what is such a good man?

Su Muqiu, the "good man" in that poem, was standing in front of me alive at that time, wearing a funny pink apron and holding a pot and spoon in his hand. He turned around with a smile and said, "Our Xiaoqing exam It must be fine."

I laughed.I like that he added an attributive - we - to my nickname.

Half a month later, the results of the college entrance examination were announced.I was in Excellent Era's Internet cafe, surrounded by Su Muqiu, Su Mucheng, and Ye Xiu. Trembling, I entered my ID card, exam admission ticket, and verification code, and clicked the query button with my eyes closed at eight o'clock.

My grades quickly popped up on the webpage.When I opened my eyes, I saw my total score, 502 points.

In the 600-point test paper, I scored 502 points.In any case, Z is there.I immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yo, what's your level?" Ye Xiu poked his head out behind me and asked.

"Able to go to the highest level." I turned around and said proudly.

"Yes, Xiao Qing!" Su Muqiu ignored Ye Xiu's presence, and excitedly stretched out his hand to pluck my short hair into a chicken coop, "Can you stay in Hangzhou for the next four years?"

"Yes, yes, you two have become very busy people after joining Excellent Era, why don't you let me bring Mucheng for you?" As I said this, I slapped his paw away and flicked my hair back. normal look.

Su Muqiu turned his head, pointed to the grades on the screen and said to Su Mucheng, "Mucheng, come and see sister Xiaoqing's score, learn from her, and enter Z University in three years' time."

The 15-year-old girl was in the period of rebellion, and she stuck out her tongue at her brother with disdain and made a face.But when he turned to me, he put on a big smile again: "Congratulations, Sister Xiaoqing!"

That night, Su Muqiu didn't even play games, and took us to a street food stall for supper.We ordered a lot of fries and plate after plate of energy bombs were brought to us.Su Muqiu and I drank iced Wusu glass by glass. Ye Xiu couldn't drink, so he replaced alcohol with cigarettes, burning the nicotine between his fingers recklessly.Su Muqiu didn't allow Mucheng to drink, but she held up the glass bottle of Coke to us in a dignified way.We laughed and clinked glasses, and sang Jay Chou's song loudly amidst the smog.Ye Xiu drank half a cup of Wusu under the prodding of Su Muqiu and me, and a little drunk immediately appeared on his face.He lit a cigarette with trembling hands, and directly mocked that the "Sunny Sky" and "Qilixiang" we sang were so vulgar. Last year, Jay Chou just released a new song, which was specially tailored for us, Su Muqiu.Come on, let me show you one.After finishing speaking, he supported Su Muqiu's shoulders and sang "What kind of a man?" Su Muqiu was so angry that he jumped up and wanted to fight him to shut him up.

We laughed, made noise, and enjoyed the summer of 2015 to the fullest, enjoying the world that just opened its doors to us.We have rehearsed the life of adults on the dark side of the world too many times, but this time, it seems that God has begun to take care of us. We have passed through the shadows, and the world has become bright again, as if surrounded by a thousand bright lights. illuminated by the sun.

I don't know who started it, but we suddenly started to talk about what we will look like after many years.Su Muqiu pointed to himself and Ye Xiu, who was lying drunk on the table, and said, Excellent Era will always be the champion.Then he looked at me and said, Xiaoqing has always been the best among us, you can succeed no matter what you do.

I smiled and shook my head.Why didn't I tell him then - after so many years, I'm still his girl Xiaozhao.Because I wanted to write martial arts cheats for him, so I studied hard; because I wanted to return to him, that's why I took the Z University exam.I wanted his approval, but I didn't want his praise so high.

I just want to be his little follower.

Su Muqiu's eyes didn't stay on me for too long, he turned to Mucheng again.Su Muqiu gently rubbed Mucheng's hair - when he was touching Mucheng's hair, his movements were so gentle and gentle, but if it were me, he would just pluck it carelessly.He smiled and said, we, Mucheng, will definitely be better than my brother in the future.

At that time, I was biting the bamboo stick, and I began to imagine what Mucheng would look like when she grew up—actually, it was not far away, as long as I waited patiently for another three years, no matter what university Mucheng went to, she should be the most pleasing to the eye on campus of a landscape.I imagined Mucheng wearing the fashionable dress that Su Muqiu and I picked out with her, holding books and laptops, walking gracefully and leisurely in the beautiful campus.Maybe she will join the student union, maybe she will start a club, maybe she will go to a company to participate in an internship in a professional dress.Maybe someone will recognize her and ask her excitedly: "Is that glory god Su Muqiu your brother?"

However, neither my imagination nor Su Muqiu's imagination came true in the end.Su Muqiu didn't wait for Mucheng to enter the university, he didn't even wait for Z University's admission letter to be sent to me, he died.

The author has something to say: For me, the summer of 2015 was also the best summer of my life, the summer when everyone got what they wanted.

It's a pity that it's so far away from that summer.
