Horse head wall

Chapter 15 Clouds

In order to facilitate the management of Jingxian Hall, which has been turned into a homestay, each room is given a name, such as Guanyin, Panchun, Xiaoxia, Zhiqiu, Liandong... Awan’s family lives in the duplex pavilion on the right side, and Wang Hongli lives in Panchun on the first floor is in the west wing.

When Tao Xuan pushed open the door, Wang Hongli was putting on his shoes.

Panchun is a small room, but everything is available. There is a yellow rosewood canopy bed next to the brown-red Luohan couch. The rolled up gauze curtains are simply hooked with hooks. The sandalwood gray wooden floor cannot be repaired in several places. defect.

The sneakers made a "squeak" sound when they stepped on the floor.

Wang Hongli looked up and saw the person coming, "Yuzai?"

Tao Xuan put the book bag he was carrying on the Arhat couch, "I'll sort out what the teacher said today after dinner."

"Okay." Wang Hongli readily agreed.

Tao Xuan looked at Wang Hongli who was still sitting on the side of the canopy bed. He just got up, his expression was a little dazed, his face was still slightly flushed, his eyes were not fully opened, his originally rosy lips turned white, and his mouth was a little bit pale. Dry and cracked, he never sleeps very honestly, and his hair is arched and curled up with a few bunches of messy hairs.

He started to have a fever last night, and this spring was very cold and severe, and his body as strong as a cow can't handle the menacing pathogens. At first, he just had some headaches. On the way back to Jingxiantang after finishing his homework at the Luming Inn, His ears gradually became hot, like pig ears that had been scalded. They were bright red. Wang Hongli didn't pay much attention to them, thinking it was the wind.

When he reached the entrance of Jingxian Hall, when Tao Xuan realized that something was wrong with Wang Hongli, the flush had spread to his whole face, and the breath from his nose was hot.

Tao Xuan asked for leave for him, and Wang Hongli slept at home for almost a day, and the fever did not subside until the afternoon.

Tao Xuan took out the inner contents of the schoolbag and handed it to Wang Hongli.

"Huh? Why are you here?! How did you find it?" The sickness on Wang Hongli's face disappeared, his eyes lit up, and he took the orange-red small fish pendant.

"I found it in the drawer when I collected the books for you in the afternoon."

Although there has never been a secret between them, Tao Huan was not prepared to explain to Wang Hongli exactly how the pendant was found, the gift of chocolates, the stealing of the pendant... He didn't want to comment too much on Fang Zi's behavior, but it was necessary to beware of Fang Zi Yes, she looked like a cactus to Tao Huan. Tao Huan chose to hide it from the beginning because he wanted to protect Wang Hongli and not want him to be stabbed.

Of course, the cactus can't get close by itself.

A trace of boredom that was not easy to be noticed was quietly suppressed by Tao Xuan, and at the same time suppressed was also a small selfishness that did not want Fang Zi's liking to attract Wang Hongli's attention.In an old community, the gray stains on the lampshades of the street lamps make the lights even more dim. There are few pedestrians on the road. The smell hangs in the air like a ghost that has nowhere to rest.

The barking sound of the dog fluctuated from far away and nearer, mixed with the long hiss of the cat.

The table in Fang Zi’s house is always quiet and you can hear the ticking of the pendulum pointer. Two dishes and one soup are placed on the wooden table. Fang Zi takes a bite of green vegetables and puts her legs together, knowing that her mother can’t see her trousers. , but she was worried.

"Go and get another bottle of wine." The man poured out the little liquor left in the bottle, and pointed at Fang Zi with his chopsticks.

Fang Zi glanced to the side, the woman with high cheekbones was eating with her head down, not looking at her.

"Hurry up, what are you in a daze for?" The man with a handsome face and a sturdy figure urged, and smacked his lips impatiently.

Fang Zi got up and walked quickly to the kitchen.

"Bring another plate of appetizers!" The voice from the living room came to the kitchen.

Fang Zi found appetizers next to the microwave oven, and walked to the living room with a plate and a wine bottle.

Her mother suddenly looked up at her, Fang Zi's hand shook slightly, the plate tilted, she raised her hand to stabilize the plate, the woman's expression changed, she pointed to her pants and said, "Are there oil stains on your pants? How could there be?" Oil stains? The washing machine is broken, how do you want me to wash it?"

"It's like this every day, you want to exhaust me to death!"

The woman refused to give up, her voice became more and more piercing, she repeatedly emphasized as if she was sick, her expression became more and more excited, and she stood up after speaking.

"Is it over?!" Fang Zi's father slammed the chopsticks on the table with a "slap", and the muscles of the other arm propped on the table bulged, and violent emotions permeated the air.

Fang Zi was so frightened that he hurriedly put the wine on the table, brought a bowl and wanted to go back to the room to eat.

"What else do you want to eat!" The woman seemed to be suffering from illness, knocked off the chopsticks in Fang Zi's hand, but accidentally brought them to the wine bottle, and the whole bottle of white wine was spilled on the ground with the shattering of the glass.

Fang Zi's mother became very panicked in an instant, at a loss what to do, ready to run to the room in a panic, the man's anger was ignited, he pushed Fang Zi who was in the way, and slapped the face of the woman who hadn't escaped successfully.

"Smelly bitch!" The sound of fists and feet hitting the flesh was muffled.

Fang Zi, who was pushed to the ground with great force, had her hands pierced by glass shards, and the gushing blood adhered to the crystal shards, shining strangely. She numbly supported the ground and got up, not caring about the mess on the ground and the blood on her hands. The blood dripped into the room.

"Fang Zi! Fang Zi! Don't close the door!" The woman's sharp cry pierced the air and hurt Fang Zi's ears.

"You save mom! Mom is going to be beaten to death by your dad!"

"Fang Zi! Fang Zi—hmm"

The woman's voice stopped abruptly, the man let out an angry roar, and loud applause suddenly appeared, followed by the indistinct sobs, like the rain in Huizhou, lingering in Fang Zi's mind.

Sitting in front of the table, Fang Zi's body was shaking like a sieve, trembling terribly, she covered her ears tightly with her hands, feeling cold all over, she was powerless, trying to escape, but there was no way to isolate all this What bright things could there be in her mind, in her world? There was not a ray of light shining in the dark tattered corners with cobwebs hanging down.

Except for the never-ending accusations, scolding, and endless violence, what Fang Zi possessed was never a beautiful thing.

The ink blots of funny smiley faces on the slip of paper she pressed under the table mat are still fresh, and she sketched them with a pen over and over again, as if she could gain some comfort by deceiving herself by doing so.

When did you start being attracted by that smile?

A bright smile seemed to burn Fang Zi's eyes, like the sun, it was too hot.

She longed to be warmed, and secretly stole Wang Hongli's smile towards others, and kept it in her heart, as if this could melt the frozen heart.

She was secretly happy when Wang Hongli was assigned to be at the same table by the teacher. Wang Hongli had never noticed that he and Fang Zi were together. Tao Xuan and Sister Tao chatted and joked, and she listened intoxicated, as if she was one of them. She even remembered Wang Hongli's little life habits from Sister Tao's complaints, such as he likes to stay in bed, likes eat fish.

Fang Zi was not familiar with the throbbing feeling in her heart, but she didn't want to suppress it silently, so she gave Wang Hongli chocolates, and when she heard Wang Hongli loudly said in class that he didn't like chocolate, she was very disappointed, as if she was beaten on the spot face, but still stopped giving chocolates.

Pain and depression mercilessly piled on Fang Zi's chest, making her breathless and dizzy. She desperately needed an outlet to release these emotions. Fang Zi clenched his fist with white knuckles and made a Decide.

After finishing their lunch, the students entered the classroom in twos and threes.

Most of the students in the class were sitting in the classroom, doing homework for self-study, or gathering to chat, and a few rough boys were rushing in the classroom. minute.

As usual, Wang Hongli patted Fang Zi on the shoulder to signal that he was going in. Fang Zi bowed his head and gave way. After Wang Hongli sat down, he saw the bandage on Fang Zi's hand who was standing. Faint blood.

"Is your hand broken?" Out of kindness, Wang Hongli asked.

"It's...it's okay." Fang Zi sat down with his hands covered, hiding his injured hand.

"If it's broken, it's best to deal with it. I think it's bleeding."

The scab had already formed, and the bleeding was due to an accidental tear just now. Fang Zi didn't make a sound, and responded silently in his heart.

As if a big event was about to be done, Fang Zi's expression was a little solemn, she used her uninjured hand to dig in the drawer, and took out a Chinese book.

Wang Hongli hadn't looked away yet, he was a little puzzled by Fang Zi's behavior, why did he take Chinese papers when it was obviously a math practice at noon.

Fang Zi opened the book and took out the milky white envelope that was pressed inside. Before he handed it out, he was snatched away by one hand.

"Let me see what it is!"

"Who is it for? Wang Hongli's?"

Yuan Cun Tou snatched the envelope, and his gossiping face was very hateful in Fang Zi's eyes. He was always the one who taunted her with words and bullied her with actions.

For the first time, Fang Zi yelled in the classroom:

"You give it back to me!"

This sound caught the eyes of most people in the classroom.

Tao Xuan felt something was wrong when he heard Fang Zi shouting angrily, he stopped flipping through the exercise book, got up and left his seat and walked towards Wang Hongli.

"Hey! What's written in it? Are you in such a hurry?" Yuan Cun Tou avoided Fang Zi's hand grabbing the envelope, and opened the envelope at once. The milky white envelope was torn and thrown away, like a white flag of surrender. Seeing the envelope being opened, Azusa lowered her arms in resignation, and two lines of tears fell silently on her face.

"Why are you robbing others?" Wang Hongli frowned when he saw Yuancuntou had opened the folded letter paper and spoke for Fang Zi.

Yuan Cun Tou stared at the letter paper, then looked at Wang Hongli playfully, "I'm here to help you!"

"What—" Wang Hongli was interrupted by Yuan Cuntou before he finished speaking.

"To Wang Hongli:

The place closest to you is the furthest away.

The easiest pitches require the toughest practice.

People choose their favorite meanings from the poet's sentences;

But the ultimate meaning of the verse is directed to you. "

Yuan Cun Tou's tone became more and more teasing and posturing.

Fang Zi's face became paler and paler, as pale as a terminally ill patient with no cure.

Wang Hongli frowned more and more tightly.

Even if the sentences in Gitanjali are not very easy to understand, the people watching the excitement around can hear the charming taste from this short text.

"Do you like Wang Hongli?" Yuan Cun Tou's burst of words knocked Fang Zi into the bottom of the valley.

Some people knew about it, but most of them heard about it for the first time. In an instant, the class exploded, chattering, and all eyes focused on Fang Zi.

"What I wrote later is so disgusting that I'm ashamed to say it!"

Yuan Cun Tou's words became more and more unbearable, and his mouth became more and more unclean.

The sound of the glass being smashed on the table was very crisp, and the shattered glass shards splashed like waves. The glass on the back table suffered misfortune, and Fang Zi picked it up and threw it on the table.

All of a sudden, the class was quiet, and everyone was shocked by the situation.

"You fuck me every day and won't let me go!"

"Did I provoke you?! Ah?!"

"You satirize me, laugh at me, I don't have the same knowledge as you."

"You scold me, scold my whole family, I can bear it."

"But do you fucking have a conscience? Do you have a conscience?! Ah?!"

Trembling, Fang Zi pointed his finger at the round-cut face, and shouted, his voice became hoarse with anger and despair, like sandpaper grinding across a tabletop.

Yuan Cun Tou was stunned by Fang Zi's shout at first, and when he came back to his senses, he was about to yell at him, but he was kicked to the ground all at once, he was stunned, and looked up at the person who kicked him.

Tao Xuan's face was overcast, as if he couldn't hold back the anger that was about to erupt. He glanced at the Yuancuntou who was about to get up. Holding his hands, he silently stepped back.

Fang Zi, who was stuck on the seat, was also roughly torn away by Tao Xuan.

Wang Hongli looked at Tao Xuan approaching, not understanding what was going on.

"What's the matter?" As soon as he finished speaking, he felt itchy in the corner of his eyes, and he wanted to touch them with his hands.

"Don't touch it." Tao Huan took Wang Hongli's wrist and led him out of the classroom, bumping into the math teacher who came to see him.

The students in the class gasped when they saw Wang Hongli's face clearly.

Bright red blood was flowing out from the corner of Wang Hongli's eyes, drawing a zigzag line.
