Chapter 143: The friendship of gentlemen is as light as water
"I was discharged from the army in 92, returned to the city to change jobs, and entered the workshop of the steel mill, and your aunt met in the factory. She was a good woman, and she bore me a son who was older than you, married, but not yet childless. ”
"In my life, I have had a lot of hard days, when I was laid off, I went to the toilet, went to the pig factory to feed the pigs, pedaled three wheels, and suffered everything. There's no way, your aunt is not in good health, and the family is pointing to me to earn money, I'm not tired, who will raise the children?"
"After suffering for most of my life, I was finally able to live a good life for a few days, but I didn't expect to be diagnosed with brain cancer. ”
"The doctor said it could be treated, but it could only be partially excised, and long-term treatment was needed. Even if I have insurance, my little family foundation can't afford to spend so much. Your aunt and your brother persuaded me to cure, but I knew that if I wanted to cure, I had to sell the house. I've been suffering for most of my life, and I've earned such a house, and if I sell it, where will your aunt live? Moreover, the treatment is not necessarily good, it just delays the time, I don't think it's necessary. ”
"I also see it, this is fate. I am just an ordinary person, I have never been out of the province in my life, from marriage to now, I have revolved around my wife and children at home, and in the last few years, I want to live for myself. ”
"Don't look at me dressed like that, I've never hiked before, and that's the most fashionable thing I've ever done. ”
"I walk slowly, but I'm not in a hurry, even if I don't go to Tibet in the end and die halfway, I'm worth it. ”
"But if I can get there, it's better to go, I want to die on that plateau, there is no grave, there is no tombstone, and let the wild wolf eat me, it can be of some use. ”
"It would be best if it could be eaten by an eagle, so that I could grow into its flesh and become the tip of its wings, and truly experience what it feels like to fly......"
The uncle chattered, I don't know if he was talking about it to himself or to Cao Wu.
Cao Wu listened quietly, but in his heart, there was a feeling surging.
"Makes you laugh. The uncle laughed and said: "You are the first person I met who took the initiative to carry me, I can't do it with my feet, I have walked for half a month before I came here, I don't dare to take more cars, and I need to practice my foot strength." ”
Cao Wu suddenly had an impulse in his heart, and he got up and said, "Uncle, wait a minute." ”
After that, he ran to the trunk of the car and took out his guitar, returned to his uncle, and said with a smile: "You invite me to eat, the sky is high and the road is far away, I don't know if we can meet again in the future, I can't repay it, I'll sing you a song!"
"You can sing, yes!"
Pluck the strings, and a chord flows along the stream below.
Listening to the birdsong among the trees, Cao Wu smiled and spoke.
"It's a song written on the road,"
"The main character is a backpacker,"
"The birds sing green,"
"The trail is covered with grass,"
"The journey of life, fearless and free,"
"Oh, you're happier than lonely,"
"More unique than ordinary,"
"O one who loves you, always remember,"
"Oh, you're the most beautiful fireworks,"
"Blooming Flowers,"
"O one who loves you, always here. ”
……
The singing voice was plain but sincere, and the uncle suddenly turned red and lowered his head, but soon raised his head and responded with the brightest smile.
After singing the song, the uncle applauded and laughed: "It's good! Your song is better than those big stars! What's your name?"
"No name. Cao Wu smiled: "This is a song written especially for you." ”
"Really?" the uncle was a little surprised, then hesitated, and asked embarrassedly, "Then can you sing it again?" I want to record it and listen to it on the way. ”
"Absolutely. Cao Wu sang it again, and the uncle held up his mobile phone and recorded the whole song.
"Thank you so much, I'm so lucky to be able to meet you today!"
Uncle is going to continue on the road, and Cao Wu will also move forward.
Before parting, the uncle gave Cao Wu a bottle of mineral water.
"I have no culture, but I often hear people say that the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and it is fate that we can meet once in this life. If you give me a song, I have nothing to pay back, so I'll give you a bottle of water! If I have the chance, I'll invite you to drink again in the next life!"
Holding on to the steering wheel, continue to drive along the path, the figure of the uncle has long been gone,
The ordinary bottle of mineral water was placed in the storage box behind the gear lever, and Cao Wu estimated that he would keep it forever.
Humming the song he sang just now, Cao Wu's fingertips tapped the steering wheel, and the song was written casually by him just now.
As he told his uncle, it was a song written for his uncle, and he wouldn't use it for commercial use, at most as a memory and record it.
Death is frightening, but it can also make people see many things clearly.
Uncle's words coincide with the ideas he has gradually developed in the past two years.
God let him be reborn once, why not experience more different and wonderful lives?
Therefore, he chose the distant Xinjiang as the place where he lived for four years in college.
In life, you have to try different things to be worthy of yourself!
Ahead, there is no end to the road, and Cao Wu is still on the road.
It's been half a month.
Cao Wu passed through different cities, villages, and finally entered the territory of SX Province.
China's vast geographical environment can be seen from the dietary conditions, and Cao Wu has eaten several meals of noodles in the past two days.
However, he likes pasta very much, and along the way, he has some experience in picking restaurants, and the noodles he chooses are delicious, even if he eats them at once, he still feels that he has not eaten enough.
Today, he plans to drive directly to Chang'an City to appreciate the customs and customs of the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties.
And, from here, he wasn't going to go alone.
Because the geographical environment in the future will greatly increase the distance between the settlements, he needs to get on the highway.
There are many delicacies in Chang'an City, and mutton delicacies have begun to increase, which makes Cao Wumei addicted.
He plans to stay here for two days and have fun while contacting people who charter buses to go to GS province.
He walked around the bus station, got acquainted with the drivers who ran the cars, invited them to a meal, and asked them to introduce a reliable customer, and it was not a problem to pay how much he paid, the main thing was to be safe, and to have a driver's license.
Those drivers are all local snakes, with their own circles and customer groups, and Cao Wu is just taking an order on the way, not robbing them of business, and doing things on the road, so he is very attentive and quickly helped him contact many customers.
According to the conditions given, Cao Wu chose one, which was a girl.
Like him, the girl was also a college student who was going to report, but she was going to Lanzhou to go to college.
On the day of the meeting, it was the girl's mother who sent her over.
Her mother's legs are not very convenient, and she walks with a limp, but her eyes are very sharp.
She stared at Cao Wu up and down for a long time, pulled her daughter aside, and muttered in what she thought was a small voice, but Cao Wu could hear it clearly.
"Girl, why don't we change the car? Wo Housheng shaved his head, he doesn't look like a good coward!"
