howling breath

After leaving Tang Qingyang's school, Tang Yushu started the car and asked Lin Lang, "Where is the bookstore?"

"What bookstore?" Lin Lang didn't remember.

"Aren't you going to the bookstore?"

"Oh, that..." was an itinerary that Lin Lang made up casually at the time, but Tang Yushu took it seriously.So after being questioned, Lin Lang got stuck: "Uh... It's not that I have to go to the bookstore, it's just a plan... I just want to relax, since I have nothing to do anyway."

Tang Yushu stepped into the car and listed the itinerary options: "Then I will take you to a nearby shopping mall? There should be a bookstore in the shopping mall. If there is no bookstore, I will take you to the game city-do you know how to play billiards? No Let me teach you. If you don’t want to learn—what about arcade games? There are also catching dolls. There is an ice rink in the basement, so you can play skates.”

Sounds like an expensive project.Lin Lang shook his head: "Forget it, I have no money."

"I invite you."

"do not."

The proposal was completely rejected by Lin Lang, Tang Yushu looked up at the sky and acted out bitterly: "It's not easy to coax!"

Lin Lang couldn't help laughing.

"Otherwise, go back to school."

"Don't, it's not easy to come out—are you afraid of riding in my car?"

"Don't be afraid."

"Then I'll take you for a ride—it doesn't cost you money."

"..."

"Hold me tighter—it doesn't cost money to hug me."

"..."

It seems to be a little more oily than when we first met - Lin Lang commented to Tang Yushu in his heart, dumbfounded.

Tang Yushu was humming some song in front of him, his head was nodding to the beat, as if he was very happy.

Because of the order, Lin Lang had to wrap his arms around Tang Yushu, but he was afraid of touching Tang Yushu's waist, so he could only swing his arms outward in an awkward position.The torso didn't dare to lean forward anymore... The distance is too close, even though I'm not a girl and I don't have breasts, but if I really want to stick it, I think it will be very awkward...

Probably aware of the distance Lin Lang deliberately maintained, Tang Yushu shouted: "This is not safe!"

Lin Lang didn't hear clearly: "Huh?"

——There are two helmets, so the communication between the two becomes extremely difficult.

Tang Yushu repeated it again, but Lin Lang still didn't understand.Simply taking advantage of the slow speed of the car, Tang Yushu tapped the brake lightly, and Lin Lang, who was kidnapped by the inertial speed, bumped into Tang Yushu's back helplessly.

Quickly returned to the body.When Lin Lang was blushing due to the "close contact" a second ago, Tang Yushu braked again, so Lin Lang bumped into Tang Yushu's back again.

Then Tang Yushu worked hand in hand with Inertia, and played tricks on Lin Lang over and over again.

Lin Lang couldn't stand the rapidly accumulating embarrassment, so he raised his helmet and goggles, and shouted at Tang Yushu, "What are you doing!"

The car also decelerated several times and stopped just in front of a sidewalk.

Tang Yushu also lifted his helmet goggles and turned his head: "Teach children who don't obey driving safety."

Not just a little "greasy" - Lin Lang gritted his teeth.

Go around a few streets and get on the third ring road.

Lin Lang, who had received the "lesson", was no longer polite—he hugged Tang Yushu a little tighter with peace of mind, and quietly let him drive himself to an unknown destination.

Tang Yushu drove very steadily, so when sitting behind him, Lin Lang wasn't afraid at all—in fact, Lin Lang wasn't afraid at all.When Tang Yushu said that he wanted to carry him but was rejected on the grounds that he was "scared", it was just an excuse that he simply didn't want to get close to him.

Today, the distance between the two has become shorter and shorter. On the one hand, it is due to Tang Yushu's disorderly but extremely destructive siege, and on the other hand... Lin Lang also clearly knows: It has to be attributed to his fragile city defense that seems solid but dilapidated.

Lin Lang felt extremely sad again——the cruelty of this "battle" lies in: the opponent doesn't covet your barren royal city, and even just borrows the way from your territory, but the wind blows under his feet, at that point The wind...is enough to destroy the city-state you depend on for survival.

Just let it go, in Lin Lang's sight, many scenes of the world flashed by.

Stations, river beaches, villages, farmland.

And Tang Yushu seemed to be singing all the time.

I can't hear it even if I listen carefully.But through the place where the body is close, I can feel the vibration of that sentence.

He was dangerous and compelling—all the qualities of a god.

And there have been human beings who looked up at the gods, delusional to build a giant tower reaching the sky, and delusional to stand side by side with the gods.

Lin Lang remembered that at the end of the story, human beings were defeated and fled in all directions.

The entire ride took about two hours.

Tang Yushu absolutely didn't know how grand and majestic the worldview had been constructed in Lin Lang's mind while obediently sitting in the back seat for these two hours, and how tragic and helpless little emotions had sprouted in his mind.

He only drove the car into a single-family manor, and when Lin Lang landed, he got out of the car and parked the "big tiger".

"Tired?"

"Not tired."

"Is it cool?"

"..."

Tang Yushu took off his helmet, peeled off the sweat-soaked T-shirt on his back, and patted the dark patch of Lin Lang's chest again: "Why is it wet...is it my sweat?"

Lin Lang took off the helmet to shield his chest, and turned sideways. "Where is this?"

An old man came out from the first floor and shouted in the direction of the two, "Is that Dayu?"

"Grandpa! It's me!" Tang Yushu responded in the direction where the old man was, and then winked at Lin Lang: "My name is 'Da Yu'—didn't I lie to you?"

"This is your grandpa... home?"

"Yes. My biological grandfather." Tang Yushu spoke strangely.

"Where is this place?"

"Longquan Mountain."

Following Tang Yushu into the lobby on the first floor, Lin Lang discovered that this is a manor-style hotel.There are customers consulting at the front desk, and tourists coming and going.Tang Yushu was speaking in dialect with his grandfather in the guest reception area. Lin Lang looked over and made eye contact with the old man.

The old man looked at Lin Lang and asked Tang Yushu, "Why is Chen Ni so good-looking?"

"Grandpa, he's not Chen Ni—he's Lin Lang."

"Bride? Whose bride?"

The confused Tang Yushu was walked in by the confused Grandpa Tang: "Mine."

Lin Lang's mood gradually eased when he saw the scene where the grandfather and grandson communicated with each other in a waste of energy but happily.

"Lin-Lang." Tang Yushu taught the old man word by word.

Lin Lang also went forward politely and greeted Grandpa Tang Yushu: "Grandpa, my name is Lin Lang. I'm Tang Yushu's classmate."

"Lin—Lang." Grandpa repeated, but "l" and "n" were still too embarrassing for an old man from Sichuan who couldn't speak Mandarin.

The receptionist at the front desk of the hotel finished dealing with the guests in that room, and came over to say hello to Tang Yushu: "I won't make a reservation because I'm the young owner——this is fine: it's the National Day Golden Week, and the homestay is fully booked today. I can only give this My little brother opened a room with a big bed."

"This little brother" at the reception was referring to Lin Lang.

"Business is so good!" Tang Yushu said cheerfully, "The big bed is enough. Both of our small beds are squeezed."

Lin Lang's back stiffened.

Lin Lang rarely had the experience of spending the night outside.

If it is a must-go itinerary, diapers must be brought—even if enuresis has not recurred recently.

But today's itinerary...is Tang Yushu's "surprise" for Lin Lang.

"surprise?"

"That's right! The weather is fine today, and I brought you up the mountain to show you the stars—you can't even see the stars in the city."

"Do you live here?"

"correct."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Could it be called a 'surprise' earlier?"

"..." So far, Lin Lang has not liked this "surprise" very much.

In the evening, Tang Yushu's grandfather served a hard meal, and after eating and drinking, the two went back to the room to rest.

At around 10 o'clock, Tang Yushu jumped up from the bed, took a shower and went out. Tang Yushu finally came back from work at around 11 o'clock, woke up Lin Lang who was sitting by the bed and was so bored that he had dozed off, and excitedly dragged Lin Lang up to the rooftop.

With the evening wind blowing, Lin Lang stood on the roof and looked around—nearby were the rural lights at the foot of Longquan Mountain, farther away was the city of Chengdu full of traffic, and farther away was a field of ultramarine blue, the ground and the sky were blurred. , began to flicker with sparse stars, and then extended upwards, forming a galaxy of stars one after another.

Pulling back his gaze, Tang Yushu was guarding a telescope that was expensive to look at. The telescope was connected to a computer, and there was a pattern the size of a coin on the computer screen.

Lin Lang approached and looked at the "coin" on the screen. After looking at it for a while, he became interested: "This is... Jupiter?"

"Is it good or not?"

"Beautiful - first time seeing Jupiter with my own eyes!"

"Come here to watch, come here to watch!" Tang Yushu beckoned Lin Lang to stand beside the lens of the astronomical telescope: "It's not cool enough to watch on a computer screen, you can see it with your naked eyes—"

Lin Lang did as he did, leaning over the camera to watch.

The legendary huge gaseous star is only a small one in the camera at the moment, not moving at all, unlike the 3D modeling that the teacher played in the high school class. over there.

"It's really beautiful!"

"right!"

Because of Lin Lang's finally aroused interest, the boy who became happier at the same time was as excited as if he had won a battle. He clenched his fist and hammered the air, and then ran around the ground.

After running around for a few laps, he returned to Lin Lang's side, brought his head up together, and bumped into Lin Lang unintentionally and lightly.

"I knew you would be pleasantly surprised! Look at it, does it look like a sandalwood bead? Look at the little bump on it! It's a storm bigger than the earth. If we float in, we will be torn apart in an instant." Section by section! Isn’t it very romantic?”

"very romantic……"

Lin Lang looked at the small planet, and couldn't help but glance at Tang Yushu again.

The boy's attention was very concentrated, and there was a bright light trembling in his eyes.Lin Lang noticed that Tang Yushu's eyelashes were very long. When he blinked, he seemed to be able to fan a tiny airflow. When the airflow fell on his heart, he was afraid that it would also form a storm that would destroy the world.

After that, Tang Yushu found Saturn for Lin Lang—the big planet with a halo.

Not far from the big planet, Tang Yushu also found a small bright spot, which was very small, but he could see it clearly.

see it?

what is that?

That's called Titan.It is said that humans do not need to wear spacesuits on it.

What a nice view.

Beautiful.

The two of them stayed until the early hours of the morning before they had to close the booth after the computer ran out of power.

Returning the computer to the receptionist, the two went back to the room.

Tang Yushu, who was tired from running, threw himself heavily on the bed: "Be happy!"

"Yeah." Lin Lang rubbed the mosquito-bitten bump on his feet.

"I used to look at the stars every time I was in a bad mood. When I looked at it, I felt that nothing was a big deal. Such a big planet is actually only a small one. The earth is even smaller, and the people on it are even smaller. It’s as small as dust. Thinking about it this way...no one is so hateful, nothing is so difficult to digest, and no regrets are so regrettable.”

Turning off the bedside lamp, Lin Lang also lay down, and glanced at Tang Yushu's silhouette in the dark night: "You think about this?"

"Of course." Tang Yushu turned to face Lin Lang: "What about you——what do you think when you look at the stars?"

Lin Lang exhaled.

——What am I thinking?airflow.storm.eyelash.Mouguang.There is also a boy running around.

But Lin Lang didn't say this, he just looked at the deep and indistinguishable black.

"That guy, running silently in the darkness...is it lonely?"

Lin Lang didn't expect to get any answers.Asking Tang Yushu such a question might embarrass him a bit.

But Tang Yushu tried hard to understand Lin Lang's question: "Did you say Saturn?"

"Ah."

"It has titans."

"Good that it has Titans."

"Titans have it too. Everyone has it..."

"do you have?"

"I have no idea……"

"I do not have."

"Didn't you have..."

"he's gone."

"I."

"Aren't you going?"

"You don't have to go."

"funny."

"why?"

"I thought he wouldn't go either."

"I am me……"

The words became more and more ambiguous, and neither of them could tell whether it was sleepiness or confusion.

But both of them felt as if something...became clear.

The two were silent for a long time.

It was so quiet that Tang Yushu couldn't help it, and put his left hand in Lin Lang's direction.

Then, very accurately, he clasped Lin Lang's right hand.

It was as if his hand was always there, waiting for Tang Yushu's hand.

After holding it, Tang Yushu was a little scared, and glanced at Lin Lang slightly.

Lin Lang remained motionless, breathing evenly.

Tang Yushu breathed a sigh of relief.

——My own head gets hot too easily.
