Chapter 173: On the Road Again
"Bah, don't be a crow!"
Wang Quan heard my wild speculation, and said with some distraught:
"Forget it, let's not mention this stubble! I'd better go find her as much as I can, and if I can't find it, I won't talk about what I can't find...... By the way, what have you been up to lately?"
"I ......"
Hearing Wang Quan's sudden change of words, I just wanted to blurt out that I was going to sea with Bing Cuo Ling, but then I thought about it: If this kid knew that I was going to risk my life again, he would definitely jump eight heights, shouting that he would go with us - not to mention that I didn't want him to also get into this troubled water, if I told him without any claim, even if I was in Bing Cu Ling, I wouldn't be able to explain.
Thinking of this, I hurriedly turned my mind and sighed:
"Well, what can I do?
"Oh...... That's right,"
When Wang Quan heard my sigh, he hurriedly comforted:
"Hey, you should take care of your illness when you are old, don't worry about my affairs, don't worry, if there is any movement on my side, I will definitely be the first to tell you...... Also, if you always feel that your condition has not improved, tell me quickly, if you really can't come to the imperial capital for treatment, do you hear?"
It warmed my heart to hear the king's concern—but I couldn't tell him about my departure. Thinking of this, a trace of guilt began to gradually rise in my heart, and I hurriedly said:
"Well, okay, I got it, I had insomnia again last night, I'll go sleep first, you have news over there, just call me quickly,"
After finishing speaking, I didn't wait for the kid from Wang Quan to speak, so I hurriedly said "bye-bye" and hung up the phone in a hurry.
After ending the call with the kid from Wang Quan, I slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed silently in my heart: This time, I finally understood how difficult it is to say the so-called white lies......
I stared blankly at the ceiling for a moment of silence before continuing to pack my luggage......
After packing up for a long time, I finally packed up my belongings for the trip - and in the middle of the trip, my grandmother and grandpa had already gotten up.
The second elder watched me pack my luggage, and asked me where I was going, and I hurriedly turned on my natural skills as a "screenwriter" and said that I wanted to go back to Harbin for a review; As for how Bing Cuo Ling knew that I had insomnia, and why he came to me, I was talking nonsense: what did the doctor say that Bing Cuo Ling was a friend of Bing Cuo Ling, and it happened that I knew Bing Cuo Ling again, and the doctor had a new prescription for me, but he couldn't leave the hospital, so he asked him to come to me, or something......
In short, it can barely be regarded as prevarication.
After some explanation, the second elder was also confused by me. Looking at their slightly worried expressions, I also felt very uncomfortable - to be honest, I don't know whether it was right or wrong for me to decide to go to sea with Bing Cube Ling on the spur of the moment, and I don't know what this decision will bring me...... However, the promises made to some people cannot be reversed.
Thinking of this, I forcibly suppressed the blockage in my heart, forced a smile, and accompanied the second elder to spend the last day at home - which was also the warmest and most difficult day......
At last it was evening—since I was leaving here to-morrow, the two elders unanimously asked me to rest early. I really didn't know what else to do for them, so I could only obediently obey the "order" of the second elder and go to bed early. Probably because I didn't sleep all night last night, as soon as I got into bed, I felt a wave of sleepiness, like a tide, drowning me instantly......
In a dream.
This time, my body was the first to become conscious. I felt that the "me" in the dream seemed to be lying in a place where it was shaking violently.
Just as I was carefully feeling the changes in my body, my vision gradually began to integrate into "my" body...... Not long after my vision returned, "I" sat up suddenly, and at this time, I could see the whole picture of my surroundings - it turned out that "I" was lying in a hammock!
Seeing the hammock tied to two iron pillars, I muttered silently to myself: No wonder it feels so shaky......! Wait a minute...... No, even if it's a hammock, you have to have the power to shake it!
Thinking of this, I hurriedly looked around through "my" eyes.
And the "me" in the dream is also very cooperative with me at the moment, twisting his head and slowly looking around-
On both sides of the columns, there were wooden boxes and barrels of various sizes piled up against the walls, and on the metal walls against which the barrels rested, there were small round glass windows on the walls -- through the windows, there were endless sea waters!
Over here...... It's a cabin!
When I saw this cabin, I was shocked, and I could feel that the "me" in my dream was not a little frightened. Just when we were slightly stunned together in and out of the dream, my hearing began to gradually integrate into the dream.
"Squeak-squeak-"
The hull of the ship swayed with the slight sound of the waves, and "I" sat in a daze in the hammock - but strangely, I didn't read anything in the "I" in the dream: no mood swings, no memory.
Could it be that I didn't take hallucinogens that caused me to be less immersed in my dreams?
I wondered, but it didn't feel like it was like that - because I could still think, and my six senses were slowly merging with me. All this is no different from when I took hallucinogens before......
Just when I was thinking about it, and I couldn't figure out what went wrong, suddenly—
There was a "crunching" sound from the iron hatch opposite me, and with the sound of the iron door opening, a hoarse female voice sounded from outside the door:
"Awake?"
Hearing this sudden question, "I" and I were both shocked, and we stared at the slowly opening hatch together, but at this critical moment, the alarm clock I set woke me up from my dream very inopportunely.
"Uh......"
I turned off the alarm clock in a daze, and with all my strength, got out of bed - a dream that made me feel as if I had exhausted all my strength, and made me feel more tired than before I went to bed.
At this time, I was used to always having those inexplicable dreams, so I didn't dwell too much, just tried to open my heavy eyelids, and looked at the time on the phone: 5:10 - there was less than an hour left, and it was time to meet up with Bing Cube Lingna.
Forced to endure the double exhaustion of body and mind, I stretched my waist hard, and in an instant, I walked out of the bedroom lightly and went to the bathroom to wash......
"Whoa-la-"
When I got to the bathroom, I turned on the faucet, and the sound of gurgling water made my nerves, which were still entangled with tiredness, a little more refreshed, and I took a handful of cold water and threw it heavily on my face.
"Whew-"
The cold water temperature spread on my face, making me awake a lot in an instant.
At this time, Grandpa and Grandma hadn't gotten up yet—but if you count the time, the two of them should be up soon. I was afraid that I would not be able to meet their concerned and worried gazes when they got up, so after simply packing up, I did not stay for breakfast, but quietly left the house with my bags on my back......
Just say goodbye and maybe make it a little better for everyone.
Walking out of the unit door of my grandmother's house, I thought silently to myself. But in spite of this, I was still a little reluctant in my heart, and after looking back at the familiar window again, I was ruthless, took a big stride, and quickly walked in the direction of the old house, and left as if I had fled......
On the road again, the future is uncertain.
Although I am reluctant, I have no regrets - no matter what kind of turbulent waves lie ahead, I have no way back at this moment.
Well, since there is no way back......
So, let's move forward without any worries!(To be continued.) )
