Once, Chen Fei showed me the horoscope and the eight characters of the birthdate, and she said in a matter-of-fact manner, you are destined to be a ** silk, unless you find a girl like me to match and give you a foil, you can counterattack and ascend to heaven. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

I said why should I ascend to heaven, live so happily on earth, and ascend yourself.

She elbowed me.

Then I said two eight characters, it is my good friend's, let her help the staff.

One is on the 18th day of September of Wuchen, and the eight characters are Wuchen, Renxu, Ding Chou, and Ding Wei.

Chen Fei pondered for two minutes, and then took out a piece of broken paper to write and draw: "Hmm...... This is not very good, the leader of a five-person team on the top of the sky, does not mix well, it is estimated that he sells barbecue and stinky tofu along the way. ”

"Okay, let's help another friend of mine take the pulse, on August 13th, the eight characters of the birthday are Xin Mao, Ding You, Geng Wu, and Bingzi."

"Well, this one, it's a bit of a beginning, Shi Shangzishui is a wounded officer, the wisdom of the Lord; In the year, Mao Mu is wealth, and Mao You hedges, which is a robbery; But the hardships of heaven are also robbery. This person must be a playboy, maybe he will make a little money, but he is arrogant and lascivious, and in the end he can't keep his family business. ”

"Oh, that's right. These two friends of mine, one is called Zhu Yuanzhang, and the other is called Aixin Jueluo? Hongli, that is, Teacher Qianlong, you are really accurate, admire and admire! ”

Knowing that I was yin, Chen Fei used her super invincible elbow against me again, and I flashed smartly, and her elbow hit the sharp right angle of the table.

However, she was right about one thing, she told me, "The library is your lucky place, and if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you may go to the library for a better time." ”

At that time, I listened to the words of the goddess, but in the library of the mother-in-law, her words were fulfilled.

There is no cultural atmosphere in this place, people have to live a small life, and most people would rather lose money on the mahjong table to pass the time or drink beer and eat supper than go into the library to replenish some metaphysical things.

But the Pocheng Library is quite luxurious, thanks to Fu Wenxin's father, after all, he is a scholar, and when he was the county magistrate, he preserved the old library and made it a meeting place for a literati and scholars.

In addition, a piece of land was opened up in the west of the city, and a larger and more modern library was built, and the number and variety of books were no less than those of the more famous liberal arts universities.

When I was in high school, Fu Wenxin and I often went to the library to read books, and I thought it was strange that there was a hall in the library with the same name as my mother's name, and Fu Wenxin said that maybe it was just a coincidence.

Later, after listening to Feng Yuqiang tell me everything about their past in Beijing, I think I knew the answer.

Called the driver of the black car we took when I went to Pocheng last time and asked him to pick us up.

This time he was finally not drunk, but completely drunk, saying that he was sleeping in the car and was coming to pick us up.

I said forget it, let's go over on our own.

He was more enthusiastic about me this time, and as soon as Liu Yun and I got in the car, he asked, "Yo, is your girlfriend?" ”

We didn't say anything, he wanted to drive, I said you should go to the back seat to sleep in this state, I'll drive, and the money will be paid.

When I came to the library, there were few people in it, it was very clean, Liu Yun asked me to return the books and go around by myself.

This time the staff changed to a young man, I handed him a borrowing card and a book, he took it and looked at it, and stared at me again, I thought there was something wrong, or I had rice on my face.

"Are you Brother Xiaoyu?"

There are many people I know in Pocheng, friends, classmates, teachers and readers since elementary school, I really can't remember who he is.

"Well, may I ask who you are?"

"I'm Zhan Yao's younger brother Zhan Xue, have you forgotten?"

Thinking of Zhan Yao, who failed the college entrance examination, because his father suffered from an occupational disease - lung cancer from working in a coking plant all the year round, he robbed a woman on the street after asking for help in order to make up for medical expenses, and finally turned himself in.

But in the detention center, he did not survive, and in despair, he could not see a way out, so he hanged himself. Later, his father's cancer miraculously improved.

During the summer vacation after he left, I often went to his house to help, sometimes sending some donations from my classmates.

At that time, his younger brother Zhan Xue was thin and weak, with round eyes, and he looked like he was always in a state of surprise. He was very quick at work, almost like an adult.

We shook hands: "Zhan Xue, the length has changed, handsome guy, is the family okay now?" ”

"Dad left the year before last, and now my mother and I are dependent on each other, and life is still passable."

"Hey, I'm sorry about my uncle."

"It's okay, before he left, he told me not to forget those of you who helped us in the future, and he specifically mentioned you. I am one year lower than you, after returning from college in Chengdu, I went back to work in the county library, I like to read, and the work is quite enjoyable. ”

"It's not easy to find a job that you love."

"I have bought every one of your books and recommended them to my friends, they all like them, and I envy you people who pursue their dreams in Beijing and can do what they like. It's just that my mom needs someone to take care of me, and I can't leave. ”

"The happiness of accompanying the family is the deepest, and the things that Beipiao pursues, now that I think about it, it is still a bit empty. Thank you for your attention, in fact, to tell you the truth, sometimes I am a little tired and don't want to write. ”

"Writing is a thorny road, I understand. When I was in school before, I used to talk to Sister Jie about you often, and she said that you don't eat fireworks in the world, and you are talented, and you are a strange man. ”

"Clean?"

"That's right, at that time, her college entrance examination results were not satisfactory, and she repeated her studies for a year, and she was originally assigned to the repeat class, and his father also knows that the bearer on Pocheng Road said that it was not good in the repeat class, and the cubs in the repeat class were all losers.

"What is she doing now?"

"She is now married to the son of the chief of the Pocheng Police Department and is also a police officer. Now I have opened a hotel, which is the only five-star hotel in Pocheng. In fact, you also know that his father eats both black and white, and this marriage is quite clear to outsiders. ”

"His husband is a police officer?"

"Yes, what else can the son of the police department do if he is not a policeman, hehe, inbreeding, the current situation in China."

"Also, do you have a clean contact information? I want to catch up with my old classmates. ”

"Of course, you wait."

After I told Zhan Xue's phone number, he forwarded Jie's phone number to me.

At noon, Liu Yun and I went to one of the top ten delicacies in Pocheng, Miniang mutton soup restaurant, and had a rub.

This long-lost taste can stand the wear and tear of time, and I think when I was in high school, we had to pool our money every two weeks to come here to relax and comfort our anxious stomachs.

It's just that at that time, the purse was hungrier than the stomach, and Fu Wenxin often took the big shoulder, so I pretended to be fair AA, but I was short of breath and couldn't stiffen my mouth.

Fu Wenxin is smart, clever and understanding, as soon as he looks at us, pull it down, it's better to come here.

On the way back to the town, the highway coiled along the Yi River, and Liu Yun looked at the red waves shining under the sunset, like a fire burning on the surface of the river.

She leaned on my shoulder and asked, "Is there really a monster in the river?" ”

"There must be a human heart."

"I know you won't believe it, and I won't believe it at first, but I'll tell you something. Once, before a thunderstorm, I passed by the river, and saw a big fish about a meter long crawling on the surface of the river, probably due to lack of oxygen, and suddenly a black shadow appeared under the fish, and then there was a huge wave in the river, and a lizard-like thing took the fish away, and I didn't see it too clearly at the time, the head of the thing, a bit like the kind of monster that people often say. ”

"I'm sure what you're seeing may be another kind of carnivorous fish. If there really are any monsters, if they want to survive, then there must be a certain number of biomes, and the fishermen have been fishing for so many years, and they haven't been able to catch one. ”

"When I was in the library, I looked up the local chronicles, and there was a story about a fisherman who was caught in a flash flood and his boat was washed away, and he washed him up in a big cave, where he saw some animal droppings and bones, and then he saw a group of monsters curled up and sleeping together, exactly like the legendary monsters. He was frightened, and when he returned home, he fell ill, and then people went to look for the hole again with weapons, but they couldn't find it anyway. ”

"I've read this story too, and there are a lot of legends. There is a general paranoia in human beings, like the Wuling people in "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring", hoping for the existence of another strange world, which is actually a reflection of dissatisfaction with real life. ”

"But do you remember when you were a kid and blew up the riverbed for navigation? At that time, a group of scientific researchers came to investigate the biodiversity of this place, and I heard them say that these people are actually here to catch monsters. ”

Looking at the lovely Liu Yun, she suddenly didn't want to extinguish the innocence in her heart: "If there are really monsters who come to the bridge town on a full moon night, then let's upgrade our equipment to fight monsters." ”

She chuckled.

sent Liu Yun home, and the drunkard who was sleeping soundly in the back row also woke up. The hairstyle slept into a moxican, he scratched his head and looked at me blankly: "Brother, I just dreamed that I was taken away by a monster, and I was so frightened that Lao Tzu flashed his waist. ”

In the evening, I dialed Jie's phone.
