wilderness

"He is seventeen this year, and he will be eighteen after this month. He had a fever when he was a child, and no one was watching him. When we found out that his brain had burned out when he was sent to the hospital, he is still stupid now. He looks so big, but actually He is still like a seven or eight-year-old child. Silly Qing is usually very obedient, but sometimes he is very stubborn. Even my father and I can’t hold him back! I was supposed to take him to the capital for medical treatment last month. His father ran back and forth for three or four years, and finally a hospital was able to diagnose him. As a result, he sneaked away that night. I went to his room in the morning and saw that no one was there. I thought he had gone downstairs to play. In the end, I didn’t come back for a day... We searched all over S city, silly, where did you go..." She covered her nose and began to cry. In just one month, she had already become pale. Puffy, disheveled hair, as if instantly aged ten years.

Uncle Chen behind him also had red eyes, hugged her in his arms, stroked her back comfortingly, and said to the camera: "If anyone with good intentions has seen my son, please let us know..." He Blinking, suppressing the tears that were swirling in his eyes, he held up the enlarged photo in his hand, "If you have seen it, please contact us, the phone number is 13xxxxxxxxx, thank you very much!"

Sister Zhao wiped away her tears and got up from Uncle Chen's arms, and said, "Silly, remember to go home..."

Their brows and eyes are full of tiredness, and they don't know how many days they have been searching day and night.

The idiot got up and ran under the TV, trying to reach it with his hands, but no matter how he touched it, he was separated by a screen. He shouted anxiously: "Mom!" He slapped the TV screen indiscriminately.

Startled by his voice, the boss raised the transparent plastic curtain and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Beiqiao stopped the fool, paid the money hastily and hurried out.

The idiot was still looking into the store, but the TV had switched to the scene of the host in front of the stage, and he was pulled by Gu Beiqiao to sit down on a step not far from the door.

Gu Beiqiao pushed him on the steps, leaned against the wall and thought for a while, then said to him condescendingly: "You go home."

The fool still had two tear stains on his face, he raised his head and asked him, "What about you?"

"I won't go back, you go back." Gu Beiqiao said.

"I don't." The fool sniffed his snot.

Gu Beiqiao kicked him on the back, "Go home!"

The fool staggered, shook his head stubbornly, "No!"

Gu Beiqiao took out the money from his bag, took out a small stack and stuffed it into his pocket, "I'll take you to the station, it's enough for you to go back, don't give it to others this time."

The fool hurriedly took out the money and wanted to return it to him, "I don't want it, I won't go back!"

Gu Beiqiao broke his hand and refused to let him return it, "Hold it!"

"No!" The fool argued with him with his mouth flattened.

The two pushed and shoved, but neither of them would accept the money. In the end, Gu Beiqiao let go of his hand and took a step back. The dozen or so banknotes were scattered all over the floor, covering the entire steps.

Gu Beiqiao looked at him and said for a while, "You should go quickly." Then he turned his head and left, leaving him behind.

The idiot opened his mouth, "Brother Qiao!" He hurriedly got up and wanted to catch up, but when he saw the money on the ground, he scratched his head in bewilderment, picked it up and held it in his palm, and then ran after him.

Gu Beiqiao stood at the crossroads and waited for the traffic lights. When he heard the footsteps behind him getting closer, he sighed and turned to another road to run wildly.

Seeing him start to run, the fool ran after him, and followed closely behind him while sucking his nose pitifully.

Gu Beiqiao quickened his pace and tried to get rid of him, but his physical strength was not as good as that of a fool, and he was still carrying a bag, and the footsteps behind him never disappeared.

There are so many roads in this strange city. They passed under the overpass, passed through the fruit market, passed through the residential area, and finally turned around and ran into an alley, until a wall appeared in front of them. Let’s walk together In a dead end.

In the empty alley there was only the sound of Gu Beiqiao panting. Gu Beiqiao leaned on the wall, and when he turned around, he saw that the fool was still following the same pace, so he couldn't help shaking his head.

The fool hesitated for a moment, but walked up to him and called out, "Brother Qiao..."

"Stop following me..." Gu Beiqiao stared at him, "Your parents are looking for you, hurry home!"

"Brother Qiao..." The idiot started to cry, he looked down at his feet, begging for forgiveness like a child who made a mistake, "I don't want money..." He spread his palms in front of Gu Beiqiao, the stack of banknotes had been rubbed by him The ones were wrinkled and wet.

Gu Beiqiao was angry and sad at the same time, kicked him several times, but the idiot still stood still.

Gu Beiqiao threw the bag on the ground, ignoring the idiot, sat down against the wall and looked up at the gloomy sky.

The idiot also sat down cross-legged. He secretly glanced at Gu Beiqiao. Seeing that he hadn't moved, he carefully moved towards him for a short distance, then tilted his head and glanced until their shoulders were close to each other.

In the evening, the street lamps come on one by one.

The fool tilted his head and rested his head on his shoulder.

Gu Beiqiao moved suddenly, frightened him to straighten his body.

"Are you really going?" Gu Beiqiao asked him quietly.

The fool nodded heavily, turned around and put his arms around him, his chin resting on his shoulder, both of them felt a burst of pain.

Gu Beiqiao put his hand behind his waist, and the two teenagers hugged each other speechlessly.

After a long time, Gu Beiqiao pushed him away, leaned against the wall and looked up at the sky. The sky was dark and thick, and the moon and stars could not be seen clearly. He murmured: "Okay, let's go together..."

The idiot's eyes lit up, and he smiled at him, and his two pointed canine teeth gleamed under the lamp.

The two found a small hotel nearby, walked into the two stained glass doors, and saw a woman smoking a cigarette sitting at the narrow front desk. Seeing someone coming in, the proprietress quickly extinguished the cigarette butt and asked, "Where are you staying?" store?"

Gu Beiqiao nodded, "Two people."

The proprietress stretched out her hand, "Okay, give me your ID card for registration first."

Gu Beiqiao hesitated, "Can I live without an ID card?"

The proprietress looked at the two of them, "You don't look like criminals... It's okay if you don't have one, but you need to pay more."

Gu Beiqiao breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes."

After paying the money, I inquired about the transportation with the proprietress, and then the two carried their bags to the dark second floor.

The proprietress twisted open a door in the corridor, "Just this one, a standard room, and a private guard. It can't be compared with the hotels outside, but it's cost-effective, and it's relatively close to the XX attractions. So what do you guys do? Stay here first, if you need me, come downstairs and find me." After speaking, he twisted his waist and went downstairs.

Gu Beiqiao leaned against the door frame and said to the idiot, "Go take a shower and sleep, we will leave tomorrow."

The fool sat motionless on the bed, staring at him.

Gu Beiqiao put the bag on the table by the window, and walked to the door empty-handed, "I'll go down and ask for a pair of slippers, and I'll be up in a while."

The fool then entered the bathroom.

When Gu Beiqiao came up, the bathroom was brightly lit, with the sound of flushing water, and the frosted glass reflected the figure of the idiot rubbing foam.

"Brother Qiao?" The fool paused, squinted his eyes and called out.

Gu Beiqiao responded, "The proprietress said that there are no slippers left, so wash them quickly, and I will wear yours after washing them."

"Yeah." The idiot washed off the foam in twos and twos, pushed open the door and walked out naked.

"Put it on." Gu Beiqiao pulled out two pieces of clothes from his bag and threw them on him, while he walked into the bathroom with the clothes in his arms.

The idiot got dressed and got under the white quilt, looking at Gu Beiqiao who was taking a bath through the frosted glass.

"Brother Qiao, I'm thirsty." The fool shouted.

"Boil the water." Gu Beiqiao wet his hair, squeezed a lump of shampoo and rubbed it on his head.Since I shaved my hair, it is really convenient to wash my hair, and it will be clean after a little rubbing.While he was rubbing his hair, the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open.Gu Beiqiao was taken aback. Turning around, he saw the fool standing at the door holding a kettle, and shouted, "What are you doing?"

"Boil water." The fool walked in as if nothing had happened, filled a pot of water in front of the sink, closed the door and walked out.

Gu Beiqiao snorted and continued to rub.

After taking a shower and going out, Gu Beiqiao frowned in disgust after throwing off the quilt on the other bed.

There was a big brown mark on the bed sheet, I don't know what it was, although it was washed white, it still looked dazzling, and there were sporadic blood stains under the pillow.

Gu Beiqiao sat down on the fool's bed with a dark face, "Get up." He pulled the fool aside and found that the bed was clean, so he lay down, "Squeeze."

The fool grinned and lay down beside him.

"Brother Qiao, where are we going?"

Gu Beiqiao looked at the ceiling, and a wild land appeared in front of his eyes, with a clear and shallow stream running through it, two intersecting railway tracks stretching into the distance, wild flowers and grass dotted among them, and a tall sycamore tree supporting a shade.Blue rabbits and brown bears are drinking by the stream, someone is wading through the water while singing, and yellow and ferocious wolves are howling at the top of the slope.

What is this place?Is it the sea of ​​flowers in the magazine?Is it the Yxi Grassland that Peng Yan's friend mentioned?

Gu Beiqiao was also a little dazed, he just replied: "Go to the wilderness."

"The wilderness..." The fool chewed these two words several times, "Then when will you go home?"

Gu Beiqiao reached out and turned off the light, "Soon..."

The two fell asleep quickly in the dark.

Gu Beiqiao dreamed of that place again, and he faintly felt that he was getting close.

He stood under the sycamore tree, and the old sycamore asked him, "Where is this?"

"This is a grassland." Gu Beiqiao touched its black and white mottled trunk, "Do you like it here?"

The sycamore tree waved its arms and lowered its head sadly, "I've been in the spring community for many years, and I'm not used to it here. I don't know if Grandma Li and Grandma Chen who often chat under the tree will miss me..."

Gu Beiqiao sat down against the tree trunk, "They won't miss you, there are still many trees in the community in spring." He silently thought: Who else would miss you except me?

The sky was dark and unclear, and they didn't know what was going on by the water. The blue rabbit and the brown bear seemed to be disturbed, and they jumped in front of Gu Beiqiao and shouted: "Go! That woman is here again!" Saying that, they quickly ran away.

Gu Beiqiao looked into the distance, and a woman in a skirt came up from the water with a bouquet of wild flowers, and said to him with a smile, "Qiaoqiao, you are finally here."

Gu Beiqiao couldn't help standing up, looking at her clear and young face.

"Come here, let me hug you." The woman stretched out her arms, and that embrace seemed to have magical powers, making Gu Beiqiao walk towards her like a bewildered man.

The woman hugged him, and the two sat on the soft grass. He curled up in the woman's arms like a baby, listening to her read nursery rhymes, "Qiaoqiao sleeps, Qiaoqiao is good, Qiaoqiao is not sleepy. Open your eyes and sell flowers." Yes, hurry up, if you don’t get up, you won’t get up..."

Feeling her embrace, Gu Beiqiao gradually fell asleep.

The gentle embrace suddenly turned into a quilt at a certain moment. Gu Beiqiao opened his eyes, but there was still darkness in front of him. He heard the regular breathing of the fool next to him, and quietly lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

Gu Beiqiao put on his shoes in the dark, gently picked up the bag on the table, and walked out.

The proprietress downstairs dozed off and nodded when she saw him coming down, "Are you gone?"

Gu Beiqiao nodded and pointed upstairs, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

The author has something to say: back! ! !I won't cheat! ! !

Ah Ruan went out to help Brother Qiao explore the way! (It's not an excuse to be a prostitute!) I didn't have the heart to change it outside, so I confessed my mistake. . .

Let's see if we can add another chapter today!lick~
