A corner of ten years

After that day, the way Tao Xiaodong and Li Cheng get along hasn't changed much. Tao Xiaodong still pushes Li Cheng away with his hips akimbo, while Li Cheng still changes the topic with a stern face, as if that night of uncontrollable love never happened. Tao Xiaodong was because of embarrassment, while Li Cheng was because of tactics—if the enemy does not move, I will not. The living conditions will become a habit, not to mention that they were such close lovers, and the tacit understanding in life is not difficult to cultivate. Although Tao Xiaodong seems to be pushing him far away at this time, Li Cheng is confident that the big plan of reunion will continue. Great achievements will be made in the near future.

Tao Xiaodong made an appointment with Fang Zien to climb the mountain that day, but because of what happened to Ding Xiao last time, he asked Li Cheng to hand over his wallet, mobile phone, ID card, and car keys before leaving.

"It's a rare day off today, take care of the camel at home, don't expect it to be the same as last time."

"No, then you have to leave some money for me to buy food, right?"

"Vegetables and fruits are in the refrigerator, steamed buns and rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are all prepared." Tao Xiaodong put on his shoes in the entrance.

"Then...then...I want to make tuna for Tuo Tuo." Li Cheng held back for a long time, looking for such a bad excuse.

Tao Xiaodong raised his head and looked at him silently, and Li Cheng immediately hesitated, "Okay, okay, you go, be careful, there are a lot of bad guys now."

Tao Xiaodong rolled his eyes at him, put on his shoes and went out.

Li Cheng collapsed on the sofa and stared at Tuo Tuo.

"Uncle, are you sure you can trust me to date that person?"

"Then what can I do? I don't have a car, money, or mobile phone now, or you can sacrifice yourself and find a human trafficker to sell you later?"

Tuotuo looked at the mud on the sofa with contempt, "I still have some money here."

"Toy money won't work in the real world, brat." Li Cheng poked the hunchback's little head.

Tuo Tuo took out a stack of pink old man's heads from his car backpack and shook them in front of Li Cheng, "Old ghost, did you see it?"

Li Cheng straightened up suddenly, grabbed the hunchback's hand, "Lend me."

The camel smacked his lips.

"Repay you twice."

Tuo Tuo put the old man's head back into his schoolbag.

"Five times!"

He hunchbacked his schoolbag, "I remember I haven't finished my homework today."

"ten times!"

"make a deal!"

Li Cheng was full of black lines, "Who taught you this trick of taking advantage of the fire?"

Li Cheng and Tuo Tuo went to Wuling Mountain by taxi. Looking at the meter that was growing up, Li Cheng was really afraid that the driver would leave them in this wilderness halfway.

Tuo Tuo looked at Li Cheng who was nervous, and stuffed a potato chip into his mouth, "Relax, we have enough money."

Li Cheng retracted his head protruding in front, "Why did Bai Bing give you so much money for a child?"

"My father said that you, an unreliable temporary guardian, may disregard my life and death anytime and anywhere in pursuit of your great love, so my father gave me money and said that if you leave me, I will take a taxi back by myself "Tuotuo took out a note from his pocket and handed it to Li Cheng, "My father has hidden the address all over my body."

Li Cheng took the note and twitched his lips. His image in other people's hearts has been reduced to such a low level. Tao Xiaodong, don't let me down.

Li Cheng guessed that Tao Xiaodong and the others had already gone up the mountain, so he went straight to the top of the mountain in front of him from the entrance of the mountain, but the hunchback looked like an old man in the world, and walked slowly and limply on his calves, Li Cheng squatted in front of him, "My eldest nephew , can we hurry up?"

"I'm small and my legs are so short, I can't walk fast."

Li Cheng was defeated, "Okay, young master, I will carry you, can I carry you?"

There was a sly light in Tuo Tuo's eyes, "You said this, I didn't force you."

"Cheng Chengcheng, as I said, come up quickly." Li Cheng lowered his body, hung the hunchback's schoolbag around his neck, and rushed up with his little ancestor on his back.

The camel was carried on his back, chatting with Li Cheng with a smile, "Why do we have to dress like this?"

"This way it can blend in with the surrounding trees and not be easily spotted."

Tuo Tuo looked down at him and Li Cheng's earthy green body and the 80.00% return rate of the people next to him, and leaned next to Li Cheng's ear and said, "You treat me like a three-year-old child."

Li Cheng was made clever by the hot breath from the camel, and rubbed his ear with one hand, "Don't talk into my ear." And do your four-year-old have the right to laugh at a three-year-old?

……

The two walked away noisily for almost an hour, and when Li Cheng was on the verge of physical collapse, he saw a yellow figure in front of him, and Tuo Tuo saw it too, and shouted loudly: "Ma Ma, that's my Ma Ma !"

Seeing the two people holding hands in front of him, Li Cheng's complexion suddenly darkened, and he turned to Tuo Tuo and said, "Stop barking!"

"What's so fierce!"

Li Cheng unloaded the camel from his back, "From now on, you can walk up by yourself."

"I don't want to! I can't walk!"

"If you can't move, I'll leave you here."

"You still owe me money!"

"I will pay it back, but only if you catch up with me." After Li Cheng finished speaking, he strode forward and left.

Tuo Tuo looked at Li Cheng, who was tall and burly, and was stunned for three seconds, then cried "Wow", Li Cheng turned his head helplessly.

"Hey, my little ancestor, can you stop crying, isn't it just a few steps, why do you look like a three-year-old child." I just complained about the appointment of a three-year-old child, have you forgotten?

As a result, the camel cried out of control, and gradually surrounded some passers-by.

An old man in his fifties came over and pulled the camel and asked, "What's wrong with you, kid?"

The camel hummed and said, "I'm looking for my Mama."

"Where are you Mama?"

"do not know."

"Then what is your relationship with this uncle?" The old man pointed to Li Cheng.

The hunchback cried and looked up, then continued to cry, "I don't know him."

"Hey, you..."

The old man straightened up and interrupted Li Cheng, "Sir, please show your ID card."

"Who are you? Why do you want my ID card?"

The old man took out his police ID from his pocket, "Sir, please show your ID."

Li Cheng thought it was a joke, "Listen to me, Comrade Police, this kid is fucking up there, and my ID card is also there, why don't you go up with me and make things clear."

The old policeman smiled and shook his head, "I think you should go to the police station with us."

"Oh...not..." Li Cheng had already been carried down by the arm of the old policeman, hunched over behind him and the others.

Tao Xiaodong climbed the mountain like a monkey, walking in zigzag, jumping up and down, Fang Zien followed behind with a doting face and reminded him: "Save your energy, we still have a long way to go."

The child turned his head and smiled at Fang Zien, baring his teeth: "Don't be afraid, I am full of vigor and energy." After speaking, he turned his face and ran several steps in a row.

"Then wait for me, old man, okay?"

Tao Xiaodong rushed down from above, rushed to Fang Zien's side and took his hand, "Old man, I'll help you."

Fang Zien smiled and knocked him on the head.

Tao Xiaodong suddenly heard a child crying, looked back but saw nothing, Fang Zien asked: "What's wrong?"

Tao Xiaodong smiled and said it was okay, probably because he lived with Tuo Tuo during this period, so he was more sensitive to children crying.

As if to verify the old adage that if you don’t listen to the old man’s words, you’ll suffer in front of your eyes, the vigorous Tao Xiaodong jumped lower and lower, and finally climbed the steps with his back arched like a cow. Fang Zien took off his backpack and carried it on his back. On his body, his speed is still the same as it was at the beginning, and his breath is steady, which is in stark contrast to Tao Xiaodong.

After walking for another half an hour, Tao Xiaodong didn't even bother to refute Fang Zien's teasing. He bit his lip, thinking how long it would take to reach the top of the mountain.

"Brother Zien, why don't we forget it, I can't climb up." Tao Xiaodong felt that he had reached his limit, his legs were almost numb, so he begged Fang Zien with tears in his eyes.

"Persevere, you can count to 200 and we will be there." Fang Zien easily quantified the seemingly endless climbing, which made Tao Xiaodong feel a lot easier.

Fang Zien took off his clothes again and twisted it into a rope, letting Tao Xiaodong lead one end and tie the other end to himself, Tao Xiaodong was half dragged and half dragged up by Fang Zien like this.

Finally, at the moment when they reached the peak, all the resentment and soreness were completely receded, and the sight in front of them stunned the panting two.

Just in time for the setting sun, it seems to be a big palette from near to far. The colors below gradually warm up, kneading into a gentle red at the junction of the sky and the earth. The clouds roll under the feet, creamy white, chocolate Brown like a matcha cake, grass green like a matcha cake, so comfortable and pleasant that it actually gave birth to a touch of emotion, as if if you don't do something earth-shattering, you will be sorry for the colorful, elegant and charming in front of you.

Fang Zi'en, who was standing beside him, seemed to think the same way. He walked to the front, facing the golden glow of thousands of clouds, and shouted loudly: "Tao-Xiao-Dong-I-love-you- "

Fang Zien turned his head, looked at Tao Xiaodong who was stunned, his eyes were gentle, and he said affectionately: "Little friend, would you like to come to me?"

At this time, Fang Zien was in a golden background, and the rays of the setting sun made it seem like there was a Buddha's light shining behind him.

In fact, he has been thinking that life is difficult, and he has endured such sufferings. Whether he is ready for such a sincere invitation, the reappearance of that person made him decide, if a person does not make room for another How can a person walk in? Likewise, a person walking in is bound to squeeze away those rotten peach blossoms and outdated feelings.

Tao Xiaodong narrowed his eyes, and took a step forward, "My ideal is a hero."

Another step, "One day he will wear the golden armor."

Take another step, "Step on the colorful auspicious clouds to marry me."

After speaking, he also walked up to Fang Zien, and threw himself into a thick and warm embrace in the next second.

Fang Zien hugged Tao Xiaodong happily, and turned around several times like hugging a girl.

Silhouettes of lovers are reflected in this splendor.

Unfortunately, not you.

Li Cheng, it's a pity that that person is not you.
