No wonder Zhang Xun has such a bad impression of Gao Xuehao, there is a decadent atmosphere everywhere in the small space just now, from any point of view, Gao Xuehao seems to have fallen hopelessly.

But Liu Jingxin didn't think so, because he observed very carefully.

"Zhang Xun, I don't know if you noticed, his room is full of dust, but his guitar is very bright, and there is no rust on the strings, which means that he often uses it; Also, did you notice that the movie he watched? It was Qin Hao's "Rock and Roll Hero", which is an old movie; and that movie just started playing, it should have been opened after we arrived; I also noticed that FL was on the taskbar under his computer desktop Studio (a free music production software), which means that he should have been making music before we came. ”

Zhang Xun listened to Liu Jingxin's words in a daze, he really didn't notice these details.

Liu Jingxin paused, looked up at the roof of the building, and continued: "There is another place that particularly impresses me, that is, he wrote a line of words on the wall at the head of his bed. ”

"What is written?" Zhang Xun asked.

Liu Jingxin smiled slightly: "Instead of lingering, it is better to indulge in burning!"

This sentence, which is Liu Jingxin and Zhang Xun's favorite sentence, first appeared in the song "My my hey hey (out of the blue)" by Canadian rock singer Neil Young, and it resonated with countless people as soon as it appeared.

But what made this lyric affect the world was the suicide of Kurt Cobain, the lead singer of Nirvana.

Less than halfway through the band's tour in Europe, Cobain lost his voice on stage, and with all kinds of media vilification, as well as the physical and mental torture caused by stomach problems and long-term depression, he finally reached the extreme point he could bear, and finally chose death and ended his life with a pistol.

In the suicide note left by Cobain, he expressed his disappointment with himself, he felt that he no longer had the original passion for music, and that it was a deception and betrayal of all his fans. He didn't want to degenerate into the kind of person he hated the most, so he chose death.

At the end of his suicide note, he quoted the phrase "It is better to indulge in burning than to linger."

How can a person who can write such a sentence on the head of his bed and let himself see it at the first glance when he wakes up every day, how can he really be so depraved?

It was through these observed details that Liu Jingxin came to a completely different conclusion from Zhang Xun.

"That guy has rejected us so clearly now, what should we do next?" Zhang Xun asked.

Liu Jingxin pondered for a moment and said, "Call your band's guitarist at night, let's come and see the stars." ”

Zhang Xun was stunned when he heard this: "Look at the stars? What stars are you looking at...... Hey, you make it clear. ”

After Liu Jingxin and Zhang Xun left, on the edge of the roof of the building, Gao Xuehao held the railing and watched Liu Jingxin and Zhang Xun drift away, and after a long time, he let out a long sigh, turned around and walked into the small utility room, took off the socks and underwear on the guitar and threw them aside, and then gently stirred the strings and sang softly: "They laugh at me because I'm different; I laugh at them because they're all the same......"

As the sun slowly sets, the moon rises, and the city sinks from one hustle and bustle to another.

After Liu Jingxin got off work in the evening, he waited for Zhang Xun and the guitarist of their band at the agreed place.

The guitarist's name is Tang Yang, he is not very old, of medium stature, and a bit introverted, but he likes to laugh.

After completing the assembly, the three of them bought some beer and snacks, and took a taxi to the building where Gao Xuehao lived again.

This place is a bit out of the ordinary, it seems a little deserted at night, except for the sound of the wind, only the sound of wild cats, and the street lamps are in disrepair, if you walk in this place alone, you will definitely feel a chill on your back.

There were several floors of voice-activated lights in the stairwell of that building, and the clutter piled up everywhere, creating an eerie atmosphere that made it uncomfortable to walk in.

But once I got to the roof, those negative feelings disappeared immediately.

Tonight, the moonlit and starry sky is rarely so close to the ground, so close that it seems to be able to touch it with an outstretched arm.

The evening breeze blows in the face, driving away the summer heat and bringing comfort and comfort.

Liu Jingxin turned his head to look at the utility room not far away, and found that the lights inside were still on, so he breathed a sigh of relief, turned back to Zhang Xun and Tang Yang and said, "Let's go sit over there." ”

The three of them found a random spot, put down the beer and snacks, and each found something to cushion their butts and sit down.

Liu Jingxin opened the piano bag, took out the guitar, and after adjusting the pitch of the six strings, swept the strings with his right hand, and then cut the strings with his left hand, and then said: "Let's not think too much tonight, just drink, chat, play the piano, and look at the stars." ”

Zhang Xun smiled helplessly: "I'm worried that if we do this, we won't let that guy have a good impression of us, maybe he will run out and scold us for disturbing the people." ”

Liu Jingxin smiled: "It's okay, let's just be quiet." You two drink first, and I'll play a tune for you to cheer you up. ”

After speaking, Liu Jingxin stirred the strings and began his performance, and the song Liu Jingxin chose was the song "My my hey hey (out of the blue)".

"My my, hey hey;Rock and roll is here to stay;It's better to burn out than to fade away......"

When the melancholy melody sounds, the whole world seems to fall silent.

On the roof of this building, Liu Jingxin and the three of them have temporarily forgotten the purpose of coming here, and they are now sitting under the starlight, savoring the loneliness that only those of them understand.

They are not alone, but they are lonely. But they did not complain, nor did they regret it, because it was the path they chose.

From the moment they set foot on this path, they already don't know how to turn back.

“…… Hey hey, my my;Rock and roll can never die;There's more to the picture than meets the eye;Hey hey, my my. ”

After playing the song, Liu Jingxin picked up a bottle of beer and opened the pull ring, clinked glasses with Zhang Xun and Tang Yang, and then took a big sip with his neck up.

"Whew!" Liu Jingxin exhaled a long breath of turbidity, feeling very comfortable.

Zhang Xun secretly pushed Liu Jingxin next to him, and raised his chin in the direction of the utility room.

Liu Jingxin turned his head to look and found that Gao Xuehao was standing at the door at this time, looking at this side from afar. Because Gao Xuehao was carrying the light on his back, Liu Jingxin couldn't see Gao Xuehao's expression clearly at this time.

He handed the guitar to Tang Yang, got up and beckoned, "Do you want to come over and have a drink together?"

Gao Xuehao didn't answer, turned around and returned to the house, and slammed the door with his backhand.

Zhang Xun asked, "What do you do now?"

Liu Jingxin shrugged his shoulders and said, "What can we do?" Tang Yang, you can play a song. ”

Tang Yang said a little embarrassed: "I'm not very good at singing." ”

Liu Jingxin pushed Zhang Xun, and Zhang Xun said helplessly: "Okay! As long as you are not afraid of being frightened, then I will sing ......."
