Unfathomable

There are no cars to look for on the street, only a few masters who pull carts are still waiting for work. He hired one. Fortunately, his things are not too many, not too heavy, and the masters are not too tired. The stall will be closed in the middle of the night, so it doesn't matter whether this business is done or not.

He asked the master to slow down so that he could take a good look at the scenery of the city again. Aside from Li Zhen, he had lived here for almost half a year, and he felt somewhat reluctant to let go.

Flowing water lights, fireworks people, he hurriedly looked at everything on the path, wanting to reflect them into the bottom of his heart, and then seal it, nothing to do with it.From then on, this city became a ridiculous and muddled past that he would never touch again.

There was no one in the station yet, and the earliest train bound for home was at three o'clock in the morning.

It was still early, so he found a corner with no one around and sat quietly.

Autumn is coming, and what is close at hand is the slowly flowing autumn.

The passing along the way made his intense resentment much calmer. At this moment, he was very confused and at a loss.The exhaustion brought about by the psychological boredom was far greater than the physical exhaustion, and he became completely lost.

But he didn't have the strength to collapse, he sat slumped quietly, he thought he drowned unconsciously, let himself fall into the vortex of thinking, and slowly sank to the bottom of the lake, unable to float to the surface, let alone breathe gas.

Then, fear and anxiety gradually took over the dominance of his thinking, and by extension, there was unwillingness.

As the train drew to a station, the crowd began to flow, and he walked forward with the flowing crowd.Looking back at everything behind me, it was like returning to the day in early spring.He remembered that the weather was fine that day and he was in a good mood.

The train moved slowly, and the scenery by the window followed suit.

He had to take a long train ride, and usually he always took a book with him so as not to waste such a long time.But today, he looked out of the window without doing anything else.

At noon, he was a little thirsty and wanted to fetch a glass of water.

So he stood up, but before he could walk, the train stopped suddenly. He looked forward, but only saw the panicked crowd.

This is a small transit station, with only one or two small houses standing beside the train tracks, surrounded by deserted people, and there is no smell of life.

He closed his eyes and listened to the people around him talking about—the Japanese bombed not far away, and even the railway was destroyed.

While pitifully regretting their lives and hating the cruelty of the enemy, everyone couldn't help but worry—it is always unsafe to be trapped in such a place, and no one can guarantee whether the Japanese will come back.

As for Bai Qiao, he had nothing to say.No matter where he is, it makes no difference to him.

Now he just wants to sit quietly and pass this period of sad torment.

Suddenly, a person sat down in front of him, and the person greeted him:

"Brother Bai! You are also on this train!"

The tone of the visitor was as if meeting a relative, warm and kind, so he had to raise his eyes to see who it was.

——It’s Young Master Wang, Wang Jin.

Although when he saw Young Master Wang, he couldn't help but think of Lizhen again, it's one thing to hate Lizhen, but he can't also hate everyone around him.

So he responded to Wang Jin: "Yeah, I didn't expect to meet Brother Wang here."

This Wang Jin is also a talkative person, when he meets an "acquaintance" like Bai Qiao, he talks about things naturally.

"Brother Bai, where are you going?" Wang Jin asked.

"Something happened at home, go back and deal with it." He said concisely.

"Hey, that's really bad. The train broke the track, so it's going to miss Brother Bai's work!"

"Yeah." He began to get a little impatient.

"However, there is one thing, I still need to ask Brother Bai to help me make up my mind." Wang Jin said hesitantly.

"What?" Seeing his dodging expression aroused Bai Qiao's interest.

"I went here to bring in some goods, but now, there is a disaster there."

"Brother Wang, stop playing charades."

"Haha, Brother Bai, do you know that what I'm going to is Li Zhen's hometown."

! ? ? !

He doesn't know whether to be happy or sad, and he doesn't know whether to be happy or sad,

"Then his family..."

"There are many bad luck and bad luck."

He repeated these words, even if Li Zhen deserved to be cut to pieces, even though he hated Li Zhen, but in the face of death, especially the two old people—the old people who are about to die, no one will be unafraid. There is no one who will not be heartbroken or regretful, and Bai Qiao is no exception.

He fell into a weird situation, he couldn't laugh comfortably or cry happily, he became weird, even a little ferocious.

Wang Jin looked at his secretive expression, thinking that it was because he was too empathetic and fell into the pain of despair.

So he comforted him and said: "Brother Wang, there is no need to be too sad, one must die and cannot be resurrected."

He realized that he was too engrossed in thinking, and forgot the conversation with Wang Jin: "Yeah, I'm too emotional."

"Human nature."

The two were silent and pondered for a moment, then Wang Jin said, "However, on the other hand, it is Li Zhen's relief."

relief?

What oppression was his parents to him?Li Zhen didn't tell himself these things, he wanted to know, wanted to ask.

"It's just, how to..." Wang Jin continued.

He wanted to interrupt Wang Jin and find out.

But when he was about to speak, Wang Jin was interrupted by a call from afar.Wang Jin turned around to respond to the man, turned to him and said apologetically, "Brother Wang, I'm sorry, I'm going to deal with some things first."

"But... it's okay, you go quickly."

He couldn't stop Wang Jin from wasting his time on these trivial matters.

The road ahead is impassable. Keeping people in the cars for a long time will inevitably cause riots. If the situation is not well controlled, it will be a big trouble.So the captain made a decisive decision, evacuated the people and got off the bus, and temporarily placed them in the transfer station.

But Bai Qiao didn't care about this, he just got on and off the car with the flow of people.

In a small transfer station, several rooms are full of people, talking and laughing, complaining everywhere, some people bring rotten fruit, filled with smell, some people are smoking, some people can't bear to drink With the smell of alcohol all over her body, Bai Qiao was upset and didn't want to stay in the house anymore.

He wandered around on the land outside the house, he had no purpose, just to let himself have something to do, so as not to be so troublesome.

Now, one thing after another is filling his mind. He has thought over everyone's words over and over again. I can't figure it out - he must have missed something.

He thought he should go back and ask Li Zhen, but he still hates it so much, his father planted deep roots when he was young, and now Li Zhen bears fruit for him, he swallows it, sin, pain, bitterness He wanted to complain, but no one could find him.

He could only swallow everything and slowly repair his heart that was stabbed again.

Not far away, a girl's voice reached his ears.

He stopped and followed the source of the sound and looked up.

It was a ragged girl who was digging a blade of grass in front of her, and he walked forward involuntarily.

When the girl found him, she screamed in fright and almost jumped up, but she was obviously so hungry that she didn't even have the strength to jump up. She just turned around to watch his movements, but she collapsed on the ground because of fright.

The girl didn't speak, and quickly stuffed the dug out grass roots into her mouth, and swallowed it with difficulty.

He could see the girl clearly—her hair was disheveled, and her face was covered with mud. Although she was not all over the world, she could still be seen to be slim, with some agility in her beauty.

But at this moment, he looked at him in a panic, as if he wanted to compete with her for the grass roots he had just dug out.

The girl stared at him with a little timidity.

Reminds him of his mother.
