The sky in Dunhuang is dark and late.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the attraction management began to remind tourists to leave the cave, and it was not until half past seven that the staff began to rush people out. But when you get out of the Mogao Grottoes, you will find that the sun is still high!

Li Qian took his sketchbook and flowed out of the crowd.

He came by car, so he didn't have to squeeze the bus back like everyone else. When he came to the parking lot to find his car, he started the car to leave, but when he turned around, he unexpectedly saw the girl wearing sunglasses.

She was really thin, and the wide linen clothes on her body looked a little empty. At this time, many art students with easels and sketchpads rushed to squeeze onto the bus, she didn't know whether she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to squeeze others, or she didn't bother to squeeze at all, in short, she stood on the periphery of the crowd, watching so coldly and quietly.

Li Qian was suddenly very curious, and wanted to know if she would squeeze the bus next, anyway, he had his own car, and he was not in a hurry to go back to Dunhuang City, so he leaned on the window, looked at the tourist bus stop not far away, and looked at the thin and weak girl.

Honestly, it's a bit of a bad taste.

Although there are only two sides, cutting off the half of the face covered by sunglasses, the two together are one side, but for some reason, this girl clearly conveys her personality: stubborn, sharp, arrogant, naïve and unsophisticated......

Although this world is only 1996, compared with the people who have experienced the information explosion in the Internet era 20 years later, it is still different, and it is much simpler. But even now, people living in the metropolis have long learned to hide themselves in various ways, whether it is temper, temperament, past, etc., they all hide behind their masks. In short, if you have known someone for a long time, you may not dare to say that you already know him.

But this girl is not, she doesn't know if she is too naïve, or overconfident and persistent, in short, for everything about herself. She didn't bother to hide anything at all, she just revealed everything, proud and self-conscious, so that people with a little experience could almost see through her at a glance.

Together, the two men spoke no more than ten sentences. Well, Li Qian also looked at two of her paintings, but for some reason, Li Qian actually felt that he already knew her well.

This made Li Qian himself a little stunned and incredulous.

One car filled up quickly, and one drove over.

Don't look like there aren't many tourists. But a few buses still can't pull it. So as soon as I saw the bus coming, many tourists who came out one after another strode over and rushed to get on the bus.

Li Qian noticed that her body didn't move.

After a while, she reached into the horizontal pocket of her clothes and groped for a moment, and found a box of cigarettes and a cheap lighter—well, looking at the way she lit a cigarette, Li Qian knew that her smoking experience should be limited.

Then, the second bus left. But the tourists waiting to take the bus back to Dunhuang on the platform did not see a small number at all, as soon as the third car came, everyone rushed up again, and soon it was crowded with a car.

She stood just outside the crowd, smoking a cigarette, motionless, calmly watching everything frolicking and crowded in front of her.

Seeing her smoking, Li Qian wanted to light a cigarette for some reason, but when he found the cigarette case in the glove box, he hesitated for a moment. Stuffed back - he had been on this plane for more than a year, and he had probably smoked two or three boxes of cigarettes, except for the first two or three months, when there was really some inertia that was difficult to change. But in the past nearly a year, I have basically stopped touching this thing.

The wind came late and came slowly from the desert.

In the hot and dry weather, there is a cool feeling before you know it.

She continued to smoke, slowly exhaling the smoke, which was then effortlessly blown away by the evening breeze.

The wind began to be able to gently swing her burlap skirt. The calves and ankles exposed at a glance are scary.

At eight o'clock, the sky was still bright, the sunset began to slowly set in the west, and the people waiting on the platform to take the train, after walking seven or eight cars, finally saw less.

Li Qian didn't leave, just looked at her quietly.

At half-past eight, when there were finally only a dozen people left on the platform, another bus drove up, and she finally got on the bus behind everyone.

Li Qian slowly shook his head, smiled, and sighed.

It wasn't until the bus had left, and the parking lot was so empty that only his car was left, that he started the car, and in a few feet of the accelerator, he had already overtaken the bus.

She, isn't she?

Li Qian was not sure.

The voice is invincible, the nose, lips and chin are a little similar, but they are thinner than those tape covers, but if the rumors are correct, this character is really like ten points!

…………

After returning to the inn and resting for more than ten minutes, Li Qian washed his face and went downstairs to find food.

Coincidentally, in the staircase, he actually met the girl.

She seemed to have just gotten off the bus, and it seemed that she was also staying in this Donglai Inn, wearing big sunglasses, her chin was slightly raised, and she glanced at Li Qian.

Two strangers, once had a relationship, she nodded, and he nodded.

The moment he staggered, Li Qian smelled an indescribable fragrance - so faint that it was almost none.

So Li Qian went downstairs, and she went upstairs.

But when she walked to the corner of the stairs, she stopped, "Hey......" Her name was Li Qian, and when Li Qian turned around and looked up at her, she said lightly: "Why did you wait there so late?

She speaks, really directly and sharply.

was poked all of a sudden, and Li Qian was almost embarrassed.

At this time, of course, he could find various reasons to explain that he didn't want to wait to see the other party's jokes, but Li Qian thought about it and actually nodded with a smile, "You're too thin, I'm afraid you won't be able to squeeze others, so I'm waiting to pick you up." ”

Li Qian used the word "pick up", which was very ridiculous. But after hearing this, she thought about it, nodded her head, and said very seriously: "Thank you then!

This kind of Q&A is really boring.

Li Qian nodded at her and turned to go downstairs.

…………

According to Li Qian's plan in advance, he was to stay in Dunhuang for about three days.

In these few days, going to see the mural is naturally the only important thing, and even sometimes, he will stop in front of a mural and look at it for dozens of minutes.

The next day, Li Qian ran into the girl again. They met each other in the cave, nodded to each other, and then passed by. However, on the third day. The two actually met again in the stairs of the inn.

Li Qian nodded at her and was about to go upstairs, but she suddenly asked, "How many days do you have to stay here?"

After thinking about it, Li Qian replied to her: "Probably the day after tomorrow, I will leave." ”

The other party nodded, and actually asked again, "Where are you going next?"

Li Qian replied to her: "I want to go to Qinghai Lake to see." What about you? Will you stay here?"

The other party thought about it seriously when he heard this, and said, "I don't know, let's take a look and talk about it, maybe one day I will get annoyed, and I will just leave." ”

Both of them smiled and staggered.

But that night, she actually came and knocked on Li Qian's door.

Li Qian had just finished taking a shower when he heard a knock on the door, so he put on a bathrobe and opened the door a crack, and saw that it was her. Surprised, "How do you know I'm living in this room?"

She wore sunglasses as usual, smiled, and said, "If you ask the waiter, this is a girl's advantage." ”

Li Qian smiled and let her into the house.

If he asks a girl which room to live in, it is estimated that the waiter will definitely look at it with strange eyes, and it is estimated that he will not say, but if a girl or a woman wants to ask a man which room to live in, the waiter will probably say it in passing.

Wait until she enters the room. Li Qian asked her to sit down for a while, went to the bathroom to change into clean clothes, and took a bottle of mineral water to her, and then asked, "Is there something wrong with me?"

But the other party didn't answer and asked: "You already guessed who I am." Right?"

Li Qian smiled, and gradually became a little accustomed to her direct speaking style, so he nodded and said, "Your voice...... It's special, but I didn't expect you to get so skinny. ”

She smiled. With a pure smile, he unscrewed the mineral water bottle, took a sip of water, and said, "I thought you could see it by looking at your face, but I didn't expect it to be a voice...... What do you do? Are you a fan?"

Li Qian nodded, "I just graduated from high school, and I can't talk about any career yet, but, yes, I'm your fan." ”

She glanced at Li Qian with some surprise, and only nodded after a while, and said, "If you don't say it, I didn't know that you were so young, and you don't look like you." ”

Li Qian smiled and didn't speak.

She seemed to have something to say, but kept gathering her thoughts, so much so that the two sat in silence for several minutes, all the while playing with the mineral water bottle in her hand.

After a long while, she suddenly stood up, as if her heart had dissipated in an instant, and her smile was bright again, "Excuse me, then...... Well, I'm gone, good night. ”

Li Qian nodded, also stood up, and said, "Good night." ”

Then she opened the door and walked out, Li Qian stood at the door, seeing her lonely to the end of the corridor, and seeing that she was about to walk to the stairs, Li Qian finally couldn't help it and called her: "Hey, I invite you to a drink?"

His voice was not too loud, but the other party still stopped for the first time.

Then, she turned around and stood with her legs together like a schoolboy, and showed a very childish smile, and said, "Well, then, I'll please you!"

"She's here to find a drinking friend!" Li Qian thought to himself.

…………

They said they were invited to drink, but in fact, neither of them meant to buy drunk.

I found a small restaurant on the street, the two of them went in, asked for a plate of peanuts and beans, a plate of local fried mutton, and then sat down relatively closely, Li Qian originally wanted to order two bottles of beer, but she asked for a bottle of locally produced liquor.

She skillfully unscrewed the bottle, poured half a cup for Li Qian, and poured another half for herself, and said to herself: "I have begun to like drinking in the last two years. I used to hear my father say that wine is very fragrant, but I never believed it, but when I started drinking it myself, I realized that the wine was really fragrant. ”

Li Qian looked at her with a smile, and suddenly said, "Do you wear such big sunglasses every day? Are you tired? Will it make the bridge of your nose uncomfortable?"

She raised her head, smiled and took off her sunglasses, brushed her hair, and said, "It's pretty heavy." As he spoke, he showed a smile at Li Qian, with a little childishness.

She is really Zhou Yan.

The fried mutton made by the locals is very delicious, Li Qian only ate a bowl of noodles for dinner, and at this time his stomach was still free, so he accompanied Zhou Yan to raise a glass and sip spicy liquor, while constantly eating mutton.

Zhou Yan only drinks and doesn't use chopsticks.

Strange to say, the two met in Pingshui, and Zhou Yan didn't even know the name of the big boy sitting opposite, but on the contrary, the two sat opposite each other, but they both felt comfortable and unrestrained, and they felt very relaxed.

After taking a few sips, Zhou Yan said: "This wine is spicy enough, but the fragrance is not enough, it is a little inferior to the wine in Shuntianfu, and it is far worse than Zhuyeqing, Fenjiu and Xifeng wine." ”

Li Qian smiled when he heard this, and said seriously: "I still have a box of Xifeng wine in my car, you want to drink it, I will invite you when I go back." ”

Zhou Yan smiled, propped up her arms, leaned on the dining table with one end and her cheeks on the other, and looked at Li Qian with a smile, "It's okay for you to drive out, it's not too unusual, why do you still have a case of wine in the car?"

Li Qian smiled, "You should think that I prepared it for you." ”

Zhou Yan smiled, her expression was suddenly a little lonely, and she raised her wrist and swallowed half a glass of wine.

Frankly speaking, the front was fine, but seeing Zhou Yan's way of drinking, Li Qian was immediately startled, so he hurriedly found a topic and said, "You knocked on my door just now, just to invite me to drink?"

Zhou Yan gave this sip of wine very spicy, and it took a long time to come back to her senses, but she had a very lively expression, and said with a smile: "No, I just want to find someone to drink with me." ”

At first glance, it sounds like a similar meaning, but if you take a closer look, well, well, that's really her personality.

After a pause, Li Qian shook his head with a wry smile and said, "It's not safe for a person like you to go out, right?

Zhou Yan glanced at him, "Ah...... You're quite an expert, and you know the agent, right?"

Looking at Li Qian for a moment, she picked up the wine bottle and poured herself another half glass, then took out a cigarette, took out a cigarette and lit it, it seemed that in the blink of an eye, she was no longer the little girl with an innocent smile and a little childish, nor was she the woman who spoke sharply and directly, at this moment, she seemed to have died more than half of her suddenly.

Lonely, lonely, dazed.

Lifeless.

But soon, she turned her head to look at Li Qian, suddenly smiled mischievously, and in the blink of an eye, she turned back into that innocent little girl, and said with a smile: "I'm tired of living here, if you want to go to Qinghai Lake, let me take a ride by the way, okay?"

Li Qian smiled, raised his cup, touched her, and said with a smile: "I understand, dare to love this is the fare?"

Zhou Yan glanced at Li Qian when she heard this, and as soon as she raised her hand, half a cup of spicy wine was poured into her throat.

Every time after the outbreak at the beginning of the month, it will bring me extreme weakness of the body, although with the experience of the last month, I have been careful and careful, but if I am not careful, well, I will be hit again.

Cold, headache, fever...... (To be continued.) )
