[Tomb Raiders Notes Sand Sea] Into the Red Dust

Just live as you want, don't be like me, and live until you just want to die. "

Gu Ran patted Li Cu on the shoulder, got up and left, he said a lot of information, Li Cu needed some time to digest, walked to the door, Gu Ran suddenly said: "What I told you today, don't tell others , I haven't figured out how to tell Wu Xie and the others."

Li Cu nodded silently, they all needed time to reconcile with themselves.

Gu Ran bought a plane ticket to fly to Urumqi the next day, Hangzhou is too hot, he needs to find a place with high latitude and high altitude to escape the heat.

Gu Ran's footprints spread all over the country, and he has even been to wild spots that few people go to, except Beijing.

He didn't think about how to face Wu Xie and the others, and how to tell the experience of his previous life as frankly as he did to Li Cu.

Gu Ran is very clear that everything in his previous life is always a knot for him now. If he doesn't talk about this matter, he can't really live a good life.

It's just that he is a little worried. Friends in the previous life and friends in this life, he occasionally feels like a double, or why he would recklessly help Wu Xie complete his plan to bring down the Wang family.

Wu Xie, who I met twice, is a person, but not a person.

This kind of metaphysical relationship that is really incomprehensible, Gu Ran inevitably got stuck.

Until the summer of 2015, when Wu Xie went to pick up Zhang Qiling, the team was full of people, and the movement was so loud that even if he didn't care about the affairs of the Tao, he heard the rumors.

Gu Ran hesitated again and again, and booked a plane ticket to Changchun. Like before, he rented a car and drove to Erdaobaihe. He brought enough dry food and went up the mountain. In order to avoid Wu Xie, he deliberately came many days earlier.

There is more than one hot spring on Changbai Mountain. Gu Ran found a cave with hot springs on the top of a nearby mountain, and settled down steadily. He didn't plan to enter Yunding Tiangong to witness the moment when the bronze door opened. There were really many people brought by Wu Xie. There was no way he could avoid it.

On the 17th, Zhang Qiling came out, and Gu Ran came out of the cave, looking at Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling from a distance. If it wasn't for the loud noise that would cause an avalanche, Gu Ran guessed that Wu Xie's team would shout loudly .

Gu Ran chose the position very cleverly, the hill was within his line of sight, but not in Zhang Qiling's field of vision, in other words, he stood on the hill and watched them go out as if they were welcoming relatives, but no one would notice.

Unexpectedly, Gu Ran noticed that Zhang Qiling, who was walking down the mountain, turned his head and glanced in his direction.

It was sure that Zhang Qiling couldn't see it, but Gu Ran still smiled and waved, and said silently: Hello, my name is Gu Ran, long time no see.

After more than a month, Gu Ran received a message from Wu Xie. Since the farewell to Siguniang Mountain, he and Wu Xie have never sent any messages. It was only after WeChat became popular that they added each other's accounts, but The message record still stays at the system prompt of passing verification.

Gu Ran always likes to send it to fat people or black blind people, and information about Wu Xie is always obtained indirectly from these two people.

Wu Xie: We are going to move to Yucun, and we have reserved a room for you.

Two days later, the fat man sent him two photos, one was a group photo of the three of them in Yu Village, and the other was the room reserved for Gu Ran, which had been tidied up, even the sheets and pillowcases were complete.

Gu Ran smiled and turned off the screen. The moment he saw Zhang Qiling turning his head back in Changbai Mountain, he had almost figured it out. Fuck the substitute or not, Zhang Qiling could vaguely sense him, and the fat man was surprisingly familiar with him , Wu Xie can entrust his back without knowing him, so why worry?

In order to make sure that he wasn't overheated, Gu Ran drifted outside for another half a year, and continued to walk through the rest of the city. When the Chinese New Year was approaching, Gu Ran returned to Beijing and simply packed up his residence. Big box, and then set foot on the plane to Fujian.

On the new year's Eve, Gu Ran went all the way to the entrance of the village. He exchanged various means of transportation so that he regretted that he didn't drive here. He asked the villagers where Wu Xie lived, and turned around to the gate of the courtyard.

They were probably having dinner, and they could hear Wu Xie arguing with Fatty, and Zhang Qiling occasionally said "hmm".

Gu Ran took a deep breath and pushed open the courtyard door: "Add a pair of chopsticks."

The three of them froze for a moment, and the fat man immediately went to the kitchen to get the bowls and chopsticks, and complained: "I said it earlier, I need to cook two more dishes, it's okay, let's have a big dinner tomorrow night."

Wu Xie greeted him, dragged the suitcase to the living room and put it there first, not without emotion: "You are finally here, long time no see."

At the dining table, Zhang Qiling smiled at Gu Ran.

While eating, Gu Ran thought that in the near future, he might be able to say to them at dinner in a calm manner like he did to Li Cuo that day: "I'll tell you a story."

Spoiler: The three of them

After I became an adult, my dad told me one thing. He gave me an address and asked me to visit there every once in a while.

According to my dad, this is what my grandpa, who has never met, told me.

Grandpa left early. When my dad was in college, something happened to grandpa.The image of my grandpa is very vague in my mind. I don’t know what he did or how he died. Every time I ask about my dad and my grandma, I don’t tell me. For so many years, I only know about my grandfather when he was young. He is a person who has done great things, and his death is probably not a normal birth, old age, sickness and death, but some accident.

I heard from my dad that he was taken care of by two good buddies of his grandfather during the years he was in college. I have met these two people before. My dad asked me to call them Grandpa Su and Grandpa Li. The former is always with my family. Walk around, he must have been very rich when he was young, otherwise why would he spend his days in a glasses shop that is closed all day long? The courtyard house in the old city of Beijing is such an expensive location!

Grandpa Li passed away when I was a child. I heard Grandpa Su mentioned that Grandpa Li suffered from illnesses when he was young, otherwise he would not have passed away so early.

I took the address my dad gave me and searched it on the Internet. I couldn’t find anything more specific in Medog County, Tibet. Looking at the satellite map, it was a pretty barren place. I didn’t expect people to live in the mountains these days. .

I didn't understand how long my dad said that he would go to visit each other every once in a while. It wouldn't be necessary to go to the mountains every month, right?

It's not too troublesome, as long as my dad reimburses me for the air ticket, I'm still willing to go.

My dad also seemed to realize that his expression was too vague, and told me, just go there once every three to five years.

"Is this a period of time?" Although the average life expectancy is longer than that of my grandfather, three or five years can't be described as a period of time. I question my father's concept of time.

My dad’s expression is a bit complicated. He is not a person who often expresses such complicated emotions. According to my grandma, my dad is a very simple person. He has fully inherited the characteristics of my grandfather’s simple mind and well-developed limbs. In this way, even working did not become a little smarter.

These are the exact words of my grandma. By the way, my dad is a physical education teacher.

My dad just told me very vaguely that I will know when I go, and by the way, before I go to Medog, I will go to see Grandpa Su first, and he has something for me to take there.

I asked him who lived at this address, how to call it, and what gifts he needed to bring over.

My dad said that Grandpa Su can bring whatever he wants to carry over, and he doesn’t need anything else. As for the address, my dad counted on his fingers and quickly gave up. Then he checked the Internet and told me, according to seniority , I have to call Patriarch.

I saw the search interface of his mobile phone, and the search bar read: What is the name of Grandpa's master.

I don't know if the patriarch will be angry if this scene is known.

My dad added that I don't need to be called Master Patriarch because he never called me that, and it is said that my grandfather never formally called Master.

"So what should I be called?" I was a little crazy, my dad wasn't kidding me!

My dad thought about it for a long time, and told me that there were three people living there. Grandpa's master was named Gu, and he was the prettiest one among them. The one wearing sunglasses was Grandpa Su's master, whose surname seemed to be Hei. The coldest one is their friend, surnamed Zhang.

I questioned: "Grandpa's master, he must be almost a hundred years old, can you still tell whether he is good-looking? You might as well say that you have hair but no hair. Also, what does it mean that the surname seems to be black? You don't know Grandpa Su's master." What's your last name? Alzheimer's disease?"

My dad told me that he heard someone call him a black man, but my dad didn't know what the last name was.

As for the problem of having hair or not, my dad just told me that the three who lived there were very young, so I should not be too surprised when I saw them.

"No matter how young you can be, you can be as young as you are, at most you are not thankful." I complained, "You have been to someone's house so many times, and you don't know their last name, so what are you doing here?"

My dad was also very helpless. He told me that every time he went to visit, he would do three things. The first thing was to help Grandpa Su carry things. The second thing was to see the three alive and dead. The third thing was to ask Are they missing something?Then he went back home without even chatting with the three of them.

"You stop by and don't chat, what are you doing with your mouth?"

My dad also lost his temper, scolded me as a little bastard, and then told me that those three were the most difficult to talk to. The kind that makes people pissed off, he really can't talk.More importantly, he always felt that those three had a very strange aura. My dad's original words were: "You can see it from a distance but not play with it? How do you say that?"

"It can be seen from a distance but not played with. Your middle school Chinese and
