The faint light of the street lamps sprinkled on the surface of the river, sprinkled on the microwave waves blown by the breeze, and the lights changed into sparkling waves, and the waves danced rhythmically on the surface of the river.

At this moment, Xu Xincheng's mood was like those waves, messy and disorderly, "In the middle of the night, she came here alone, sitting like this, something must have happened." The question is, what is it?"

There were countless possible things that could happen in his mind, but the more he thought about it, the more messy his thoughts became, and finally, he decided that he didn't want to, "No matter what happens, all I can do now is to guard her and make sure she doesn't have any danger." I stayed with her quietly, watched her quietly, and waited until she was tired of sitting, and sat until one o'clock in the morning, or half past one, at most two o'clock, and she would go back as soon as she was tired. ”

There was a knowing that the girl, as if intent on competing with him in patience and endurance, went by minute by minute, quarter by quarter of hour, hour by hour, and at three o'clock in the morning she did not move at all.

The melancholy in Xu Xincheng's heart!

At the same time, he began to be surprised, how could she be so powerful, she sat upright like that for more than three hours, and she didn't even move. Yes, she didn't even raise her hands or stretch her legs, it was like she was completely petrified.

He cried out in his heart, thinking that he should have met a master of meditation.

In the second half semester of his junior year, for two or three months, he was at the lowest point in his life, his mood was depressed to the bottom, and his state also fell to the bottom, in order to adjust his mood and state, in addition to running, he also read several books on meditation and mindfulness meditation, and also followed the guidance in the book to learn to meditate and learn mindfulness meditation.

Although he never understood the true essentials, never reached the true meditative state, let alone reached the state of concentration, when he meditated, his mood did calm down very quickly, and when he calmed down, he figured out a lot of things and understood a lot of things.

His mood and state gradually improved, and he gradually climbed up from the lowest point of his life step by step.

Since then, whenever he is in a bad mood or in a bad state, he will stop, take a deep breath and meditate for a while.

However, he can only sit quietly for about half an hour at a time, and he can't sit still for a long time.

Of course, he is not in a hurry, because he knows that learning to meditate, like learning a foreign language, requires years of exploration and practice, and this has to be done slowly.

He also knew that a truly masterful master could sit still for hours, sometimes a whole day. Now it seems that the girl belongs to this kind of person.

Xu Xincheng thought to himself: "The question is, how did she do it when she was so young?"

"And another question, how could she choose such a place to sit and meditate?"

These were two of the many questions that came to his mind, and he tried to list some possible answers, and to pass the time, he tried to list the possible answers to other questions.

He had been thinking about whether there was any other way to persuade her to go back early, but at this time, he was already sleepy, he couldn't think about it, his brain couldn't turn at all, and he began to fall into a state of confusion.

After a while, his upper and lower eyelids began to fight incessantly, and his head kept nodding and dozing off.

Over time, the upper and lower eyelids have changed from every 10 minutes at the beginning, to every 3 minutes, to every 30 seconds, to every 20 seconds, and then to every 10 seconds......

In order to forcibly stay awake, every time he nodded, he would immediately shake his head, twist his neck, move his body, and force himself to wake up.

He never dared to lie down on the stone bench, because he knew that once he lay down, he would fall asleep immediately. He couldn't go home either, and he kept telling himself in his heart that he had to hold on, because he had made a promise to her, saying to her, "I'll stay with you, and I'll go back when you want to go back." ”

He has always been a man who keeps his promises, and today, he must also keep the promises he made to her.

Xu Xincheng kept nodding his head violently, and then shaking his head violently, and the time was unhurried, ticking and ticking.

For the first time, he felt that time could pass so slowly, so slowly, so slowly......

I don't know how long it took, Xu Xincheng, who had already entered a trance, saw two blurry figures appear not far away, and then, from that direction, there was a unique brushing sound from the big rattan broom sweeping the floor, which was the city beauticians starting their hard work for a new day.

After a while, several old people came from a distance, and they walked together in twos and threes.

As the old men passed by them, they would slow down, look curiously at them, mumble to each other, and then, shrug their shoulders slightly, shake their heads helplessly, or smile heavily, and then go on with their walks.

He wanted to go up and tell them that it wasn't what they thought it would be, but at this moment he really didn't have the strength or the energy to do it.

I don't know how long later, he saw the eastern sky glowing white, struggled to look at the time, and at 04:35, the sky was about to dawn.

Guangzhou, a beautiful and vibrant city, is slowly waking up from its slumber.

More and more people go to the banks of the Pearl River for morning transportation.

There were seven brightly dressed aunts dancing happily to the beat of dynamic music in a vacant lot not far away; two old men with gray beards, carrying bird cages, sat down on a stone bench next to them, chatting while teasing the birds; and three people wearing white Tai Chi clothes, who should be a family, practiced Tai Chi sword in front of the stone fence on the shore.

Xu Xincheng looked at the girl again, she was still sitting quietly, motionless. He knew that now that there were so many people here, so many people watching her, she was safe now, he could finally put his mind at ease, he could finally take a break.

Exhausted, he inhaled weakly, slowly exhaled it, and then slowly let himself lie down on the stone bench, resting his head on his backpack.

His nerves, which had been tense for more than five hours, immediately relaxed, and he immediately fell asleep.
