Chapter 8(1/2)
() Found the way home!
Ye Liuxi set out from the town at 4 a.m. She was used to arriving early and didn't like people to wait.
When I was crossing the dirt road, I saw people standing or squatting under the street lights, wrapped in cotton jackets, huddled their necks to shelter from the wind. These were all coming out of the countryside and waiting to do odd jobs at the construction site. It is said that the foreman would drive to pick people at five o'clock and take them as he pulls them. Recently, there was less work and it took snatches, so the queue was getting earlier and earlier.
There is a breakfast shop on the side of the road that sells soy milk, buns and fried dough sticks. Ye Liu went downstairs to pack a portion. When he paid the money, the banknotes were reflected by the lamp hanging beside the glass cover.
What about hard-earned money.
At four o'clock, the car stopped at the bridgehead, and it was dark and it was too early to eat. Ye Liuxi drove the car to listen to the music.
This car has been around for a while, and the discs were bought by Huang Defu. She just listened to any songs that her surname is Huang. She never picked on them and was too lazy to pay attention to that matter.
The gongs, drums, chimes, cymbals and moon zithers in the machine. The old man sang "The Case of the Chopping of Beauty" in the style of Lao Sheng, one word can make people breathless...
"Bao Longtu meditates in Kaifeng Mansion, and he says, "Your Majesty, listen carefully..."
Ye Liuxi blew on the car glass, muffled the stars in the sky outside, and then reached out to wipe them out.
At half past four, Changdong had not arrived. Ye Liu got out of the car and looked at the way he came. There was no movement. The song was replaced by the most famous Xipi Liushui in "Su Sanqi Jie". I don't know who sang it. He pinched his voice and his voice was sharp. The wind sent the singing out, like a haunted in the wilderness.
A man wants a woman to wait, what's the point?
Ye Liu got into the car, and the door blew and ran into it. He found the alarm clock of 5 o'clock in the phone: Be generous, and the capacity of her waiting for people is usually half an hour.
The car has been modified. In order to have a large enough place to release goods and hang the bed, all the seats in the rear were removed, leaving only the driver's seat and the co-pilot. Ye Liuxi was bored and hung his legs on the back of the chair to do sit-ups hanging upside down in the air.
Twenty of them have done it, and her waist, abdomen and thighs are sore. She doesn't move, like a bat, and she has entered into a state of meditation.
The song was revised "Night Running", and the martial artist stopped trading and sang: "The good night is far away... I hurried to walk in the wasteland... I am not afraid of the long journey..."
This is the last song. After singing it, the machine stopped automatically. With a click, the car was as quiet as Chen Shimei who had been beheaded.
...
At five o'clock, Ye Liuxi called Changdong's phone and prompted to turn off the phone. She took a deep breath and felt that she should be patient: Maybe something might be wrong.
At six o'clock, Ye Liuxi wrapped her cotton jacket and looked at the sky in the east: before sunrise, the sky will be covered with a layer of gauze, and then it will become more and more intense, like a car accident scene... Changdong was either too injured to move or died, otherwise it would be hard for people to forgive.
At the moment of sunrise, Ye Liuxi drank the cool soy milk, raised her head and squinted her eyes to look at the sun, and said, "Fuck me."
The car entered the town again, and the people who were squatting on both sides of the dirt road were gone... Maybe he had found a job and had a good job.
But what did she have? After two or three hours of tossing, she watched the sunrise.
Ye Liuxi drove the car to the door of the hotel where Changdong stayed.
I wanted to check if Changdong checked out and when he would go. The front desk refused to let him go, and he looked awe-inspiring with "We protect the privacy of our guests." Ye Liuxi stopped talking nonsense to them and went straight into the elevator.
When the elevator door was about to close, someone outside shouted: "Oh, I'll wait a moment."
Ye Liuxi pressed the door key, and the man stepped in excitedly, turned to say thank you, but his smile suddenly froze on his face.
Fei Tang.
Ye Liuxi stared at him: "Where is Changdong still living here?"
Fei Tang said: "Yes...yes."
He was a little afraid of her. That night, she grabbed his neck and dragged him off the car, reminding him of the scene of watching pig killing when he was a child.
Ye Liuxi's eyes fell on the bag he was carrying.
Fei Tang took the initiative to explain: "Dou...Doufu Brain, the breakfast I brought to Brother Dong."
Ye Liuxi said: "Oh."
Fei Tang was "oh" and got goosebumps in her body. The space in the elevator was small, and she was breathing on the side. He felt very uncomfortable, and he felt that time was passing too slowly.
Finally arrived at the third floor, she had to leave first.
Ye Liuxi reached out to him: "Give me the tofu brain."
It was the same for anyone to bring to Changdong. Fei Tang quickly handed the bag to her. Ye Liuxi hooked her fingers. When she passed by the trash can, her fingers were loosened, and Tofu brain accurately smashed the flip cover and went in.
Fei Tang stopped in time and decided not to follow him: the air is good in the morning, so let's go around again.
The door was not closed, and Ye Liuxi pushed the door in and found Changdong in the bathroom. He was brushing his teeth, and he was foaming at toothpaste. He glanced at her coming in from the corner of his eyes, rinsed his mouth, and wiped the corner of his mouth with a towel.
When he thought about it, Ye Liuxi leaned on the door frame on one side, raised his legs, and stepped on the center of the door frame on the other side.
Changdong looked up at her, and she smiled slightly and said, "Changdong, should we be punctual?"
Changdong nodded: "So should we be honest?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Did you really take that photo? Have you really been to Longcheng?"
After saying that, he bent his fingers on her knees and said, "Let go."
Ye Liuxi subconsciously did what he did.
Changdong walked around her and went into the living room to pour water. Ye Liuxi followed her and frowned slightly: "Is there any misunderstanding?"
There is a kind of person who doesn’t cry until he sees the coffin. Changdong sat on the sofa and pushed a piece of paper over.
It was the Longcheng roadmap he drew yesterday. Ye Liuxi felt it was not good: Is there any problem with the direction he said?
Sure enough, Changdong pointed to the location of the beacon tower: "In this picture, I deliberately drew a wrong place. Longcheng did not have a beacon tower."
Ye Liuxi's mind was spinning quickly, and his eyes were sincere: "The shape of Yadan is strange, and it is not unusual to say that it looks like a beacon tower. Besides, I mean the general direction..."
"Okay, please point it again."
Ye Liuxi pondered for a moment, feeling that Changdong was cheating her.
If she changed her position, she would touch him: Isn't it right to point to that yesterday and today to point to this? Doesn't it mean that she doesn't know the direction at all?
It's just that there is no beacon tower.
So it still refers to the same position: "That's it."
Changdong was silent for a while and said, "It's quite smart."
Ye Liuxi smiled sweetly, but unfortunately she didn't finish laughing...
"......The first time I saw someone who is so envious, at least I did some homework and went online to check some information, aren't there any time?"
He picked up the pen and crossed the signpost: "There is no signpost for gasoline barrels in Longcheng."
Then he drew down everywhere: "There is no 100-meter ditche full of camel skeletons, no crossing line that goes southeast to northwest, and the shape of Longcheng is not an oblique triangle... I understand enough, right?"
I understand enough, my uncle.
Ye Liuxi sat down on the sofa and smiled apologetically: "I'm wrong with this. I'm so embarrassed. I didn't mean it... In this way, just say how you want to solve it."
It makes sense to recognize her so simply and smile so well. She doesn't hit people with a smile on her face... She knows that she is talking nonsense, but it's hard to lose her temper.
If he refused to let go, she would definitely say earnestly: Changdong, I have apologized. What else do you want? Why are you, a man, so serious?
Changdong spread out the photo: "I already know that Kong Yang is in Longcheng, but you really don't know the specific location, that is, I don't need you anymore."
"I can go by myself. At worst, I can live in Korla. I go to Longcheng every once in a while and divide the area into pieces to find it. Longcheng covers an area of 3,500 square kilometers, and it takes one or two years to spend. "
"So, tell me why I still have to bring you."
Ye Liuxi said: "This is true..."
Changdong interrupted her: "I would like to remind you that if you tell a person once, you can give you a second chance; if you tell a lie twice, you will never be trustworthy."
Ye Liuxi sighed: "I don't tell the truth because you won't believe it..."
Changdong said: "How many people would believe this when a person is embedded in a loess ridge in an unmanned land? I believe it all, what else can't be believed?"
Ye Liuxi changed his words again: "This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is..."
She lowered her voice and said with great sincerity: "I'm afraid you'll be scared."
This is the most annoying woman he has ever lived.
Changdong was out of patience, and he stretched out his fingers and pointed to the door: "Let me hear you say one word of nonsense, just one word, you will go from there..."
"At 4:30 pm, we will go to the bridgehead and see you all. I promise that you will know what you want to know. Let's see you in the afternoon."
...
In order to show her sincere attitude, she moved very lightly when closing the door, and her lock tongue clicked softly, showing her considerateness.
But I didn't leave immediately. I stood at the door for a second or two, buckled my five fingers and pulled my nails across the facade.
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Changdong made a bucket of instant noodles. Fei Tang came over diligently and insisted on adding a ham sausage to him.
In order to find the cheapest four-wheel drive off-road, he was able to say that he had made a pity: at the end, he booked an old jeep online at a monthly rent of 2,000 yuan. The owner was not expensive to buy, and it was second-hand for more than 30,000 yuan, but he was very good at writing surfaces. The body was painted in camouflage, and the spare tire was tied horizontally to the military shovel, and a benchmark light with a pirate flag on the front of the car was also erected.
Fei Tang himself thought it was a pig's nose that was inserted into the pig's nose. Unexpectedly, Chang Dong glanced at him and let him pass.
I am so grateful. I can only use it to buy breakfast, stuff ham sausages, etc. to express my feelings, and verbally care about everything about Changdong...
"Brother Dong, didn't you say you would have an appointment with that woman tonight? When is it?"
Changdong took the plastic fork roll: "Four-thirty."
"Four o'clock...a half past..." Fei Tang turned on his phone to look at the time, "Yeah, Brother Dong, it's already past it."
To be continued...
