Chapter 4: Foreknowledge of Death
On the train, with the buzzing whistle, the train is about to leave, people will always take the longing for their hometown and the reluctance to their relatives and friends when parting, to recall those times spent here!
"Xiangzi, since you don't want to study anymore, your mother and I won't force you anymore, then go to work well, right? When you arrive in City C, your cousin will come to pick you up, he said that he has already helped you find a job, just work hard, don't give up easily, for the sake of life, no matter how hard and tired you have to do it, and working outside is not better than at home, just endure everything, try to take care of yourself, don't be wronged yourself, if you are not happy outside, remember, home will always be a harbor where you can dock! When you get there, remember to call us often! Don't let us worry anymore!" Before leaving, his parents repeatedly told us and asked for warmth for a while!
"Well, I know, I'll contact you when I go to City C and settle down! The train is leaving, I'm leaving, parents, you have to take care of yourself, goodbye!" Wu Xiang nodded at his parents with a smile on his face, and waved his hand.
Wu Xiang got on the train alone, looked back at his parents, and saw that the eyes of the parents who were standing outside the car window were already full of tears, but they didn't cry in front of Wu Xiang, but just turned this sadness into a wave.
Walking into the train, Wu Xiang found his place according to the seat on the train ticket, through the window, he saw that the figure of his parents had become farther and farther away with the start of the train, and it was getting smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared, Wu Xiang only had unspeakable discomfort and reluctance in his heart at this time! But thinking back to his parents working so hard, just to let himself study, but what about him? The result was to disappoint them, always making them angry and worried, so this time, he decided not to let you down again! He will work hard and go to work! Sweeping away the haze, Wu Xiang was even more firm in his heart!
It takes a total of two days and one night to travel from N county to C city, and Wu Xiang is sleeping most of the time on the way, because the train is always stop-and-go, roaring constantly, and the people are boiling, Wu Xiang is always easy to be woken up when he is asleep, so he can only open his eyes to refresh himself when he is sleepy......
Listening to Mr. Wang Ling's words that day, Wu Xiangmao suddenly opened his mouth and began to review his past, he found that he had grown up slowly, and he should take on his own responsibilities at the age of 16, so he decided not to study, he had no face to stay in school anymore, even if the teachers in the school could forgive him, he himself could not forgive himself, and in the future he had to work hard, make money, and then support himself, without his parents causing trouble! After that, he communicated well with his parents, and his parents were strongly opposed, but after Wu Xiang's soft grinding and hard bubbles, they could only respect Wu Xiang's choice, and then his father said, "Don't regret it in the future!"
……
Whenever he falls asleep at night, he will always sit up in that terrible and strange dream, in the dream he is on the bank of the river, the surroundings are still gray, he can't see clearly, the opposite bank is still blooming with the strange flowers that are bright red like blood, lonely it, as if looking in the mirror, cold and arrogant, delicate, the white skeletal hands in Hanoi are waving to him in unison, as if they are greeting him! But Wu Xiang is not in the mood to communicate with them! Nothing has changed, he will still be awakened in the dream! As a young man in the new century, Wu Xiang has always been an atheist, who does not believe in the legends of gods and ghosts, but only believes in science, but this matter really cannot be expressed by science! It is so unbelievable that people can hardly accept it!
In order to verify his guess, he had to pick up his mobile phone and look up photos of all kinds of strange flowers on the Internet to confirm what the flower in his dream was? In this way, Wu Xiang almost searched for pictures of ordinary flowers on the Internet, and there were so many of these pictures that he couldn't finish reading them for a while! With no results and results, he began to empathize, thinking, since that flower grows on the shore all year round, but Hanoi does have countless corpses and bones, which may be related to death, it is better to check those legendary flowers, the emperor lives up to his wishes, Wu Xiang finally found a flower similar to the dream on the Internet!
Seeing the word "Lycoris", Wu Xiang didn't look any further, he instantly thought of the Lechuan River, Nai He Bridge, Meng Po and so on. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became, Wu Xiang hurriedly turned off the screen of his mobile phone, his brain was a mess, and he was panicked and said to himself alone: "The legendary flower that represents death, my one, blame me, my mouth is cheap, what is not good to eat, but I ate a terrible flower, I won't be dying, right?"
He doesn't think it's an ordinary flower, have you ever seen a flying flower? And its whole body is full of attractive and unique charm, isn't that what guides the dead?
The people around him also looked at him with strange eyes, thinking to themselves, this young man, why should he still beat himself? There is nothing wrong with this young age! What a pitiful, it seems that I have to stay away from him, what if I go crazy and hurt myself?
One by one, with pity began to look away from him and then looked at Wu Xiang from afar, at this time he was very sensitive to feel that something was wrong, so he stopped his hand and looked around, everyone looked at him with different eyes.
"Young man, what's wrong with you, are you out of love, or sick, if you are out of love, then find another one, don't hang yourself on a tree, and give up the whole forest, then you can't row! If you are sick, I suggest you? Hurry up and go to the hospital to see, unfortunately, I happen to know doctors in this area, such as Chinese medicine acupuncture, orthopedic bruises, mental illness or something, as long as it is not a terminal illness! Wu Xiang was also told by this uncle, who seemed to be a pyramid scheme, and almost believed it himself! For a while, Wu Xiang was embarrassed!
"Passengers, Station C has arrived!" At this time, the sudden voice of the attendant suddenly relieved Wu Xiang, everyone did not pay attention to Wu Xiang anymore, and began to pack up their things and prepare to leave, as soon as the train stopped, Wu Xiang hurriedly escaped from the carriage with his luggage, it was so terrible, he was almost treated as a nervous disorder! After escaping, he continued to breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and when he got out of the station, Wu Xiang hurriedly called his cousin, but he kept getting through! Either not in the service area, or no one answered for the time being!
Damn, why is this cousin so unreliable! I said that I couldn't get through on the phone now when I came to pick me up, and I was also drunk! Wu Xiang thought to himself!
At the same time, he also looked around to see if there was a cousin, and after looking for a long time, Wu Xiang was obviously a little disappointed, so he walked alone on the side of the road, waiting aimlessly, looking at the people who came and went, his heart was even more irritable!
Suddenly, his head began to hurt, and a picture flashed in his mind, a little girl of seven or eight years old, wearing a white dress, looked very cute, but I don't know why, she suddenly ran to the center of the zebra crossing, and a car that was speeding by with him did not brake, and then hit the little girl......
The picture disappeared in a flash! Wu Xiang, who had a headache, suddenly came to his senses, and looked around at the same time, extremely surprised!
What's going on?
At this time, an amazing scene happened, on the opposite road, there was a mother and daughter waiting for the traffic light, and when the light was about to be green, and when the light was still yellow, the little girl seemed to be unable to wait, so she ran to the center of the zebra crossing first! A car that did not know where it came from, when he saw that there was still someone in front of him, he immediately stepped on the brakes, but it was too late......
