Chapter 2: Love
Tie Zhu's face sank suddenly: "What's the matter, are you scared too?"
Gu Xiangyang stared at him with wide eyes, and only after a long time did he become indifferent: "Anyway, I won't live long, so I won't be afraid." ”
"What does it mean not to live long?"
"It's literal, there's nothing to say. You...... How did you get this disease?" Gu Xiangyang looked at him and shrunk his shoulders: "This girl can't be a pervert, right?"
Tie Zhu pulled down his face and spit out a word: "Get out!"
"I'm kidding, don't take it seriously. I know you're not that kind of person. Gu Xiangyang said with a smile.
Tie Zhu raised his hand and wiped his mouth, and said after a moment of silence: "I have no relatives now, and my parents died of AIDS when I was twelve years old. They contracted it when I was very young, left me to my grandfather, and left the village far away. ”
"Grandpa doesn't treat me well, anyway, he often says that if there is soup to drink, he will drink soup, and if he has food, he will eat, and he will not starve me to death. Later, the news that my parents had AIDS spread in the village, and the villagers united to evict me from the village, when I was eight years old. ”
Hearing this, Gu Xiangyang's eyes were red with sadness: "You must have been very sad at that time." ”
"It's not sad, I'm just scared. I didn't know where else I could go if I left the village, so I didn't want to leave. When the villagers saw me from afar, they didn't allow the children of the same village to play with me, and they had to cremate everything I touched, saying that I had the virus all over my body and would infect them. ”
"Then you, are you sick?"
"Actually, I don't know, in fact, it doesn't matter at all, even if I didn't have this disease, my parents died because of this disease, and they wouldn't accept me. ”
Suddenly, Gu Xiangyang clasped his hand and said seriously, "We are friends." ”
"Aren't you afraid of me?" Tie Zhu asked him with tears in his eyes. Gu Xiangyang took a deep breath: "I've seen more terrifying people, so I have no reason to be afraid of you." ”
The two leaned against each other on the fence, watched the night and fell asleep unconsciously. When he woke up, the iron pillar was gone, if it weren't for the plum kernel that had been left behind, Gu Xiangyang really thought that last night was just a dream.
My aunt and grandmother got up very early, the old people were used to getting up early, and when Gu Xiangyang was about to make breakfast, he saw a figure coming in from the door, staring at it, and knowing that it was an iron pillar.
"Small pillars. "A boy under the sun, very handsome. He looks very good when he laughs, Gu Xiangyang feels that it is not easy for him, in such a growth environment, he can still face life with a smile.
"See what I've brought you?" said he handed the bun in his hand to Gu Xiangyang's hand.
The buns were still hot, and Gu Xiangyang smiled happily: "Where did you get this bun from?"
"You don't care where you got it, just eat. Tie Zhu pushed Gu Xiangyang into the house, the house was very old and damp, and grass and mushrooms had grown on the ground. Tie Zhu smelled the smell of dampness and mold, he covered his nose and frowned: "How can this still live people?"
"The house has not been cleaned for many years, and my aunt has always lived alone, and she has no one to take care of her. Gu Xiangyang said a little sadly.
Tie Zhu glanced back at his aunt and grandmother in the yard: "Well, I also see that she is a strange and pitiful person, so I often steal some food to give her ......."
Facing Gu Xiangyang's surprised eyes, Tie Zhu knew that he had missed his mouth. His eyes were a little dodgy, and Gu Xiangyang threw the bun in his hand into his arms: "It's not right to steal something, where did you steal it and return it." ”
"No, what's wrong, I'm starving, and you don't care so much, you're a wonderful. ”
"I'm not wonderful, I have one last word. Gu Xiangyang no longer paid attention to him and passed by him. Tie Zhu's face turned crimson, and he stuffed the bun into his mouth fiercely: "The dog bites Lu Dongbin and doesn't know the hearts of good people, if you don't eat it, you won't eat it, I eat it all myself!!"
After eating the buns, Tiezhu left the place. Gu Xiangyang looked at his angry back, and regretted it a little, and when he wanted to catch up, the others were gone.
Although the situation in his family is not good, he is not worried about food, clothing and clothing, and Tiezhu is completely different from him, he has no relatives, and the villagers are very afraid of him, when he is a plague god. He stole things, but he just wanted to live, and he didn't do anything unreasonable. He shouldn't be angry.
Tiezhu has not come again for several days, Gu Xiangyang went to the mountain to find some wild vegetables, today the village chief sent some rice and oil, very little, Gu Xiangyang thought that this bit of rice oil is not enough for him to eat for half a month, has my aunt and grandmother eaten enough?
There is a stream in the mountain, Gu Xiangyang wanted to go to the stream to get some water to drink, but he actually ran into an iron pillar there.
"Little pillars?"
Seeing Gu Xiangyang, Tie Zhu jumped up and turned around to leave, but Gu Xiangyang rushed forward and stopped him with an arrow: "Don't be angry, I apologize to you, I was unintentional." ”
"You're not wrong, why do you apologize?" Tie Zhu's words made Gu Xiangyang speechless.
"You also know that I'm not wrong, are ......you?" Gu Xiangyang subconsciously closed his mouth, thought for a while and said, "Xiaozhu, I don't think I'm qualified to accuse you, I'm sorry." Anyway, I want you to starve to death...... You're good. ”
Tie Zhu's heart trembled, he pursed his lips, and his eyes were a little red: "Xiaoyang...... I promise you never to steal again. ”
"Hmm!"
Tie Zhu seemed to think of something, and stepped forward to grasp his hand: "Come on, I'll take you to catch fish." There are a lot of fatty fish in the creek. ”
Tiezhu took off all his clothes, leaving only a pair of pants. I thought he was very thin, but in fact, it was the complete opposite, not only was he not slender, but he was very strong, and he had obvious lower abdominal muscles.
"Come on, don't stand on the shore in a daze!" the iron pillar splashed water towards Xiangyang, who raised his hand to cover the stream that came, and shouted: "Bastard, stop it, my clothes are wet." ”
"It's good to get wet, come down!"
Gu Xiangyang was helpless, put the wild vegetables he picked on the ground, took off his clothes, and slowly approached the stream. Tiezhu stared at him for a moment.
In this half-naked situation, still being stared at like this, Gu Xiangyang became uncomfortable: "You...... What are you doing staring at me like that?"
Tie Zhu suddenly came back to his senses, and his face was a little suspiciously ruddy: "Your skin is so white, even the little jade in the village is not as white as you, if you are a girl, you will definitely look beautiful." ”
Gu Xiangyang was a little unhappy: "Do you think I will be happy if you say that I look like a girl? Besides, I can't be friends with you happily." ”
Tie Zhu pursed his lips: "If you don't say it, you won't say it, I'm just telling the truth." ”
"You still say!" Gu Xiangyang swam to his side and pushed his head down to the water. Tie Zhu ate several mouthfuls of stream water, and unwillingly pulled Gu Xiangyang into the bottom of the water: "Let you make it bad! Let you make it bad and drown me." Hahaha, beg for mercy, I'll let you go. ”
"Dead pillar, let me go. cough cough ...... "Seeing that he choked on two mouthfuls of water, Tie Zhu let go of him: "Weak, vulnerable, Xiaoyang." ”
"Bastard, not everyone is as brute force as you. Gu Xiangyang glanced at him and wanted to go ashore, but suddenly he caught a sharp glimpse of a fish not far away, and he excitedly hit Tie Zhu's chest with his elbow: "Tie Zhu, catch the fish." ”
"Don't go, let me come, I'll show you. As he spoke, Tie Zhu slowly moved two steps with a confident face, waiting for the fish to approach. Suddenly, there was a swoop, and the water splashed, Gu Xiangyang thought that it was no fun, the action was so big, it was strange to be able to catch a fish.
Unexpectedly, Tie Zhu suddenly raised his hands high, the fish struggled in his hands, and Tie Zhu laughed: "It's delicious today!"
"Little pillar, you are amazing!!" The two happily returned to the dilapidated hut side by side, Tie Zhu had never cooked, so this heavy responsibility naturally fell into Gu Xiangyang's hands.
Gu Xiangyang let the iron pillar heat up, and he boiled the wild vegetables and fish together. The three of them gathered around a small table and ate the pot of boiled fish to the bottom, Tie Zhu drank the fish soup while crying, he said: "I have never eaten such a delicacy, Xiaoyang, if only you could cook for me for the rest of your life." ”
Gu Xiangyang grinned: "You better find your daughter-in-law to cook it for you, in the future, when you have a daughter-in-law, where will you remember this bowl of boiled fish I made." ”
Tie Zhu didn't know if he was joking or serious, he stared at Gu Xiangyang for a moment and said, "Xiaoyang, you can be my daughter-in-law!"
Gu Xiangyang knocked on Tie Zhu's head with chopsticks, and the iron pillar screamed in pain, but in fact, he didn't have a heavy hand, but Tie Zhu was rarely hypocritical in front of Gu Xiangyang.
When Gu Xiangyang didn't have time to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, Tie Zhu shouted behind him: "Xiaoyang, you can be my daughter-in-law! You cook for me, I will support you for the rest of your life! You must be better than the little jade in the village." ”
A spoon flew out of the kitchen, but the iron pillar was fortunate to hide in time to avoid the opening of his head.
It rained heavily at night, and the iron pillar spontaneously climbed to the roof and covered the leaking area with grass so that the rain could not seep down. Gu Xiangyang made the bed and said to Tiezhu: "Xiaozhu, you can sleep with me tonight, it's raining too much." ”
"Oh, yes. Tie Zhu happily agreed, the clothes on his body were soaked by the rain, and after he took a bath, he climbed onto the bed made by Gu Xiangyang. Gu Xiangyang went to her aunt's room after taking a bath and took a look, she fell asleep with peace of mind, and she was relieved.
At night, he was only wearing an off-white vest and shorts, and got into the thin quilt with Tiezhu, and when he reached out and touched it, he found that Tiezhu was naked and wearing nothing. For some reason, Gu Xiangyang's face suddenly turned red, turned his back to him, and closed his eyes.
slept until midnight, feeling a little cool, and suddenly the iron pillar came up from behind him, stretched out his hand and hugged him tightly in his arms, Gu Xiangyang was shocked, such intimacy made him very unaccustomed: "Little pillar, what are you doing?"
"Aren't you cold? Tiezhu's lips were close to his ear, and his low, slightly hoarse voice was terribly warm.
"But......" Gu Xiangyang's heart was beating so fast that he was about to jump out of his chest, his face was crimson: "Holding it like this, it's not good for two men to hold it, it feels weird!"
"It's that you're thinking too much. Tie Zhu closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep again. Gu Xiangyang pushed him, but this guy seemed to have fallen asleep, and he didn't react for a long time, he was speechless, and asked unhappily: "Dead Pillar, do you treat me as the little jade child in the village?"
With that, he gave up all the struggles and slowly fell asleep, and the man behind him tightened his arms tightly, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The sun rose in the afternoon of the next day, and the two climbed to the top of the mountain, lay down on the soft grass, and felt very happy looking at the distant mountain and the small village pile at the foot of the mountain.
"Xiaoyang, I want to live with you forever, forever. Don't go, okay?" Tiezhu clasped his hand and pleaded.
Gu Xiangyang lowered his head and pursed his lips, was silent for a long time, smiled bitterly and said: "I don't belong here, I still have to go back to my original world, this time I escaped from home, I have been out for half a month, and I may have to go home after a while." My sister will worry about me. ”
Tie Zhu's dark eyes were dyed with deep melancholy: "Is the outside world as beautiful here?"
Gu Xiangyang thought about it seriously and said: "The outside world is not as warm as here, the cities are all made of steel, unlike here, there are trees, mountains and small village piles. ”
"If it's good here, why do you have to leave? Wouldn't it be good for you to let your sister move in here with you?" Tie Zhu stubbornly refused.
"Little pillar, I'm not the same ...... as you."
"What's the difference?" Tie Zhu sneered, jumped up from the grass, and said in a deep voice: "Actually, you also look down on me from the bottom of your heart, right? Yes, we are different, you come from a big city, and you are very noble. How can you look at a small mountain village like ours?!"
Gu Xiangyang's heart was suffocated, he stood up and said, "Little pillar, it's not what you think. I love it, but it's not my home after all, I have to go home. If I don't go back, my sister will go crazy with worry. ”
"Xiaoyang, don't go. Tie Zhu hugged Gu Xiangyang tightly, and his strength was so strong that he seemed to embed him in his body: "Obviously, you walked into my life without my consent, you can't be so selfish and leave as soon as you leave! ”
"No one smiled at me before, no one cooked for me, there was no warmth, because I didn't get it, so I felt that it didn't matter, I could live well. But when you smile at me, cook for me, and hug me, I can't bear it. ”
Here it is again, my heart is beating inexplicably fast, and I am so nervous that I am about to suffocate. Gu Xiangyang stretched out his hand to cover his chest and pushed him away: "Don't be stupid, there is no banquet in the world, we can't stay together for the rest of our lives." ”
Tie Zhu's face was injured: "Xiaoyang, even if I beg you to stay, you can't let me stay, right?"
"Are you stupid? Of course not. Gu Xiangyang sighed helplessly: "Even if I really stay, I won't live long, I have a terminal illness, a terminal illness that may never get better, I stay, just let you watch me wait for death." ”
Tie Zhu lowered his head: "You said you weren't afraid of death, I thought that if you really died one day, I would die with you." What I'm saying is true, Xiaoyang. ”
