It didn't last long, Wei Yuxuan came to Mo Bei with a thick stack of manuscripts, rubbed his hands humbly on purpose and said, "Mr. It’s really overkill to polish my ignorance, and it’s too abrupt for me to do so, but I still hope that you can guide me to improve..."

"Wait," Mo Bei quickly stopped, rubbing the goosebumps on his arms, and asked tremblingly, "Where did you borrow this line from?"

Wei Yuxuan laughed loudly, "On the long-distance bus back to Yunbian, the person sitting next to me is, er, a literary youth..." We originally chatted to pass the boring time of the long journey, but when the other party learned After Wei Yuxuan became an editor of a literary magazine, Wei Yuxuan unfortunately suffered all the way.

Objectively speaking, the writing and skills of that person are not bad, but the structure is still very rough, and the theme is vague. If someone can guide and train in a targeted manner, there is still room for improvement.However, after getting out of the car and being forced to listen to the other party's literary dream for more than half an hour, Wei Yuxuan only had the thought of "never want to see this person again".

Mo Bei couldn't help being amused, he was devoting himself to reading the manuscript while chatting with Wei Yuxuan.Although many things have already been known in the correspondence, but it will be a different angle and feeling to talk about it in person.

Mo Bei's reading speed has always been very fast. Although he was doing two things at once, he finished reading all the manuscripts in a short time.

This stack of manuscripts is divided into three parts. The first part is epistolary prose, which is basically a compilation and polishing of his correspondence with Mo Bei; the second part is two short stories; the third part is an interview draft.Although there are three forms, the theme all revolves around one center, which is the education of primary and secondary school students in poor areas.

The prose reveals the author's personal emotional tendencies, the writing is clear and shallow, and the aftertaste is long; the novel is very emotional, describing the deep feelings of rural teachers and students; while the interview draft is objective, calm, and restrained. There is no meaning of criticism and guidance, but it is thought-provoking between the lines.

Mo Bei felt that the speed at which Wei Yuxuan's writing level improved could be described as rapid, and basically he couldn't give any advice.

Wei Yuxuan borrowed the envelopes and stamps from Mo Bei's house, wrote the submission address, and sealed the three manuscripts separately.Mo Bei paid attention to it, he wrote Mo Bei's address in the sender's address, so that in the future, when he received a reply or manuscript fee, Mo Bei would collect it on his behalf. It seems that Wei Yuxuan didn't plan to stay in the cloud for too long.

"Brother Yuxuan, what are your plans?" Mo Bei asked bluntly.

Wei Yuxuan said, "I want to go west in a few days."

"Still going to the countryside?" Mo Bei was a little surprised.

"Yeah, I heard that some places in the west are short of water. Maybe when I come back, it will be windy and smelly." Wei Yuxuan joked.

Seeing Mo Bei's thoughtful look, Wei Yuxuan raised his hand and touched his head: "Xiao Bei, you are too preoccupied. I only realized the truth after walking this time. In such a big place, you put too many troubles in it, and there is no place to pretend to be happy. Clean it every once in a while, clear out all the garbage, and leave some space for happy things."

Mo Bei first protested: "Touch my head again! I'm not a child anymore." Then he asked suspiciously: "What made you feel this way?"

Wei Yuxuan hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "The outside world is so big, my vision has broadened."

In fact, there is no rule that people have to experience certain things before they can have certain insights. Mo Bei only asked this question in a flash, but the flash of hesitation on Wei Yuxuan's face made him even more suspicious. .People's subconscious expressions and actions often reveal more real information than their words.

Mo Bei opened a drawer in the stacked small drawer of his brain, which contained the correspondence with Wei Yuxuan, and flipped through the paper full of Qingjun's handwriting, and a few lines that did not seem different at the time Floating and jumping out of it, "I remember that there was about 20 days between the first letter you sent me and the second letter, and that was the longest interval. The ink in the first half and the second half of that letter was different. , because it took a long time to write the second half. You said in the letter..."

Mo Bei stood up and wanted to find the letter, but Wei Yuxuan held him back with a wry smile: "Okay, I surrendered, but I was actually sick for a few days. Maybe it was because I didn't have a good rest during that time, and my nutrition was not as good as it was." No way, stomach bleeding. Because it was in the mountains at the time, and I was staying at a forest ranger’s house. That uncle Bai had two dogs named Tudou and Sweet Potato. Lively. Every day I follow Uncle Bai to patrol the woods, pick wild vegetables, and collect rabbit sets, which is very interesting."

Mo Bei asked: "Stomach bleeding and you can't go to the hospital, how did you survive?"

"I don't know what the prescription is for the herbal medicine that Uncle Bai picked, but the medicine is very effective, and I won't vomit blood that night. Otherwise, Uncle Bai would have to carry me down the mountain to the hospital. Then I drank a few more The heavenly medicine, I went down the mountain after it was completely healed. I drank those heavenly medicines and Feilong soup too, which made me gain four or five catties." Wei Yuxuan said with a smile, "Later, I went down the mountain and sent I wanted to talk about this when I wrote the letter, but after thinking about it, it’s all over anyway, and talking about it would make you worry, so I didn’t write it in the letter.”

"I'm sorry..." Mo Bei murmured.A person was dying of illness in the deep mountains and old forests, with only a stranger and two dogs by his side, and Mo Bei felt deeply guilty for not being able to accompany his friends at such a time.

Wei Yuxuan patted Mo Bei's back affectionately - he would never do such an overly hearty gesture before - and said with a smile: "Look at your distressed expression, do you think I'm Sister Lin? Don't worry, Now that I can tell you about it with a smile, it means that it really can't hurt me anymore."

This "it" does not refer to illness, of course.

In turn, he was comforted by the person who almost died alone. Mo Bei felt ashamed, but he still insisted: "Who is distressed? I mean, I was going to treat you to a good meal at grandma's house that day, but it turned out that I was so embarrassed." I was ruined, so it’s better to hit the sun than choose another day, shall we go out to eat tonight? Call Xia Duo and little uncle, and don’t bring anyone else.”

Wei Yuxuan laughed at first, and then showed a worried expression at the end, "Xiao Bei, is there something going on between you and Little Moon?"

Mo Bei was frustrated: "My uncle's partner has turned yellow, and part of the reason is me." He gave a general account of what happened, shrugged, "I think it will be fine in a while, my uncle still can't fall Face, in fact, is nothing."

Wei Yuxuan said, "I'll talk to him when I have time."

Mo Bei nodded: "Okay. Uh, and... that day... I came out with my dad."

Wei Yuxuan was stunned for a few seconds, his eyes widened, "This is a bolt from the blue, Xiao Bei! Should I admire your courage or laugh at your stupidity?"

Mo Bei smirked: "My dad said he would support me."

Wei Yuxuan jumped up excitedly, went around the room again and again, yelled meaninglessly a few times, then waved his arms and said, "I knew it! Brother Mo is so reasonable! My God! By the way , then your mother..."

Seeing Mo Bei's face darken, Wei Yuxuan closed his mouth and touched his nose in embarrassment.

"Actually, some things can be seen through comparison. At least your mother cares about you and cares about your health and your future. The starting point is always good. Besides, there are relatives like your father and grandma who care about you very much." You have Xia Duo. I am the negative example, whether it is my father or mother, who provide for my daily necessities, but never care about anything about me. They only ask me not to appear in front of them and not interfere with their current life. At first, I thought I still had at least one lover, but now I don’t have one...Although I still have you, Xiaobei, you understand that friends can never replace family, and that part of the shortcomings can never be made up. I have Sometimes I even fantasize that if I also have a complete family, if my parents love me very much, I may not have the courage to admit that I am a homosexual, and I may never dare to destroy their perfect illusion. So from From this point of view, I’m lucky again, I don’t have to worry about this issue, I just need to be myself frankly.”

Wei Yuxuan spread his hands and smiled, "Look, you can always find an angle that makes you feel lucky."

Mo Bei stared at Wei Yuxuan blankly for a while, and said, "You can cook a bowl of chicken soup for your soul or change your name to Xiao Que Xing."

Wei Yuxuan's head was full of question marks: "What?"

The place for dinner is Lao Ma's Dog Meat Restaurant. Lao Ma has added hot pot and barbecue now. Mo Bei wants to eat barbecue, but Xia Duo feels that his bad mood has affected his body recently. The barbecue is very angry and bad for the liver, so he proposes Still eat hot pot.Mo Bei was indeed very irritable, and even lost his temper a little because of this stuttering, but was coaxed by Xia Duo's sweet words.

Wei Yuxuan and Gong Xiaobai exchanged glances and secretly smiled. From their point of view, Mo Bei and Xia Duo were Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, and they both enjoyed this way of getting along.

Mo Bei likes to eat beef bone marrow and pig brains, which seem weird to Wei Yuxuan, especially pig brains, which are white and slippery balls. Wei Yuxuan doesn't even want to look at them, let alone eat them. glance.However, Mo Bei deliberately told him stories about eating monkey brains and goose paws, which made Wei Yuxuan's hairs stand on end.

"Don't talk about it, I won't have to eat this meal any more." Wei Yuxuan quickly stopped, "Sometimes it is really scary to think about human beings. They can come up with so many cruel methods just for the sake of appetite. Is it cruel and cruel? Can abuse really make food more delicious?"

Gong Xiaobai sneered: "It's as if you are not a human being. What is the difference between eating food that has been butchered and cut up by others, and eating food that you have killed yourself? When we went to the river to play, we caught fish in the same way. The fish come to be slaughtered and eaten?"

Wei Yuxuan said seriously: "These are all for the purpose of satiety, and the slaughter of animals is not excessive. Well, let's put it this way, animals in the wilderness will kill and eat each other, but they generally don't Like human beings, it is necessary to increase the so-called "deliciousness" through massacre. In fact, there is no real relationship between massacre and delicious food. Apart from the quality of the ingredients themselves, whether the food is good or not depends more on cooking And seasoning? These people are actually just trying to satisfy their desire to abuse, right?"

Xia Duo said: "You mean that some people will feel happy when they see the tragic situation of animals being slaughtered, or they will be indifferent at all. This kind of emotion itself is wrong and may even be dangerous, but Because it is covered under the purpose of eating, it becomes a matter of course."

Gong Xiaobai disagreed: "If you want to say this, people shouldn't eat meat at all. Whether it's being smeared with a knife or knocked off the head alive, isn't it killing? You might as well ask, why do humans have the right to treat animals? Do this." After speaking, he asked himself and answered, "Human beings are the spirits of all creatures and the masters of the earth. It can also be said that they have obtained this power after a long evolution. If tigers and lions rule the earth today instead of humans, Humans are just one of their recipes. In short, whoever is the boss decides."

Wei Yuxuan was helpless to this kind of hegemonic speech, and was immediately speechless by Gong Xiaobai's words, "You also have two dogs, and the relationship is still very deep, but it didn't delay you Eat dog meat."

Of course, this kind of debate is impossible to have any results, and the topic will soon be brought to other places.

Mo Bei dipped a piece of meat in the seasoning bowl, but his mind went elsewhere from the argument just now.

It is certainly not accurate to say that only humans have the behavior of killing and killing. Animals also have the behavior of playing with their prey for fun.However, only human beings have carried forward this behavior, evolved countless tricks, and then implemented it on their own kind.

From physical injury to mental abuse, they lack awareness of the pain of the same kind, and they don't even feel that the other party is as human as themselves. Through abuse and control, they gain great satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment.Some people only dare to do this in their imagination, or watch others do it through the Internet and other channels; some people will target weaker women, children, and the elderly; some are extremely confident and will "conquer" powerful "Prey" is considered an honor.

Isn't Luo Yi such a person?

The method he chooses does not seem to be bloody or cruel, but it often achieves the purpose of controlling the other party mentally, whether it is driven by him to do things he does not want to get his hands dirty, or completely surrendered from the spirit to the body. His slave, the victim may never realize what he has lost, thinking that this is all a choice according to his own will.

He thought he was a god.

Mo Bei sneered.

Xia Duo looked at him curiously, "Beibei, there are too many seasonings on this piece of meat, can you eat it so salty?"

Mo Bei silently put the piece of meat into Xia Duo's bowl, and Xia Duo ate it happily.

Gong Xiaobai was angry and funny, pointed at Mo Bei and said, "You kid, how can you bully people like this."

Mo Bei betrayed his little uncle without even raising his eyelids: "Isn't everything my aunt doesn't eat fed to you? I've seen her put the peeled apple peel in your mouth once, Didn't you eat it anyway?"

Gong Xiaobai blushed, and quickly took a large spoonful of hot beef from the pot and put it in Mo Bei's bowl, "Eat quickly, let's eat up all the meat, and let Xiao Weizi be a vegetarian."

Wei Yuxuan gave him a blank look: "Childish!"

While talking and laughing, Kui Ba came in from the outside, and said without hesitation: "Brother Bai, the grasshopper has escaped from prison."
