Chapter 4: Fellows
Leaning against the window I closed my eyes, pondered, and fell asleep before I knew it. The train galloped out of Sichuan and came to Chongqing.
Suddenly I woke up and looked at the time past two o'clock in the morning and I couldn't see anything outside the car window. The people next to me have already fallen asleep, so I leaned on the window again, this woke up when the sky was already bright, look at a big river outside the window, I know that this should be the Yangtze River, the train goes along the river, I can't see the direction of the water flow, gradually the beautiful scenery outside the window has changed, a high-rise building appeared in front of me, in front of Chongqing should be. The train was getting slower and slower, and I looked at the time, and it happened to be exactly 7:05 in the morning. Suddenly the voice of the conductor came over the radio:
"Dear passengers and friends, thank you for taking the N857 train, and arriving at the terminal Chongqing Railway Station in front."
This phrase was repeated over and over again on the radio.
After 5 minutes, the speed of the train was getting slower and slower, and the platform appeared in front of me, and finally the train stopped at platform 3, and the passengers on the train began to slowly start walking down with their luggage.
I followed the crowd and moved slowly, moving......
As soon as I got off the train, a wave of heat came to my face, and I relied on the high temperature at 7 o'clock in the morning, no wonder people called Chongqing one of the three major furnaces, which is indeed true. The weather in September is indeed very hot, especially in Chongqing in September, that is, it is even hotter.
After getting off the train, I suddenly felt empty in my heart, I can't describe the feeling, it should be nervous, because this is the first time I have come to a strange city, and I have walked so far alone, I have never been out of the far door before, I can't imagine that the first trip is to go out of Sichuan Province alone.
It was the first time I took the train, and I didn't know how to get out of the station, so I followed the people who followed me and walked slowly on the platform, walked through the long platform, turned countless corners, and I was already dizzy, I couldn't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest, but I just walked slowly with the crowd, because I knew that these people must be going out of the station, and I followed the crowd I walked to the exit of the station, and I took a big step and finally stepped out of the train station.
At this time, I looked back and saw that there were three big characters at the entrance of the station - Caiyuan Dam.
It turns out that the railway station in Chongqing is called Caiyuanba Railway Station, in fact, there were already two railway stations in Chongqing at that time, one is Caiyuanba Railway Station, and the other is Longtousi Railway Station.
Walking out of the train station, a group of people with a stick in their hands and a rope tied to the stick came up and said to the people leaving the station, "Do you want to help with the class?" ”
Some people unceremoniously asked those people to move things, and some people said, "No! ”
And I was stopped by a man in his thirties and forties and asked, "Little brother! Do you need me to help you move your things? ”
I shook my head, and without saying a word, he saw that I shook my head, and turned away.
Because I didn't know what they did, and at this time my parents' words echoed in my ears again: "When you are away, be careful in everything, and don't talk to strangers......"
These few words kept echoing in my ears, so I didn't talk to strangers, I really did not talk to strangers.
I walked down the stairs slowly, and after a few steps, I saw a tall and thin man in front of me holding a sign that read, "Welcome to Fuling Normal University."
When I saw this sign, I seemed to feel a lot more relaxed, because I knew that it was not a lie, because the admission instructions said that someone would pick up the new students at the train station.
I boldly walked over, probably because I looked like a student! Someone in the crowd asked, "Are you a freshman at Fuling Normal College?" ”
"Yes!" I replied.
"Then come with me!" The man said.
"Yes!" I answered.
Then I followed the man to a corner of the square, there was a table here, there was a red cloth on Table Mountain, and the golden words on the red cloth that hung down read "Fuling Normal University Freshman Reception", and there was a big umbrella next to the table, and under the umbrella sat two people, chatting there, and I don't know what they were talking about. There were thirty or forty people behind the umbrella, half of whom seemed to be students, and many parents.
Suddenly, a man said, "The person on this train should; It's almost here! ”
Another replied, "Yes! Almost! You can bring them over! ”
At this moment, a voice said loudly: "Junior brothers! Follow me to the front and line up to get on the bus. ”
That's when everyone started moving, and I was no exception. We followed the man, in front of a bus, there were a few big characters written on it, I took my luggage and walked to the bus, there were many people on the seats, and many students were accompanied by their parents, I walked to a short-haired girl, there was an empty seat here.
I was worried that she would also have a parent, so I asked, "Is there anyone sitting here?" ”
The short-haired girl replied, "No one, you can sit down." ”
I sat down, and I always felt as if I had seen her somewhere, very familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen her, and then I thought about her accent when I spoke to her just now, it was very familiar, and it was exactly the same as my own.
Could she be from the same place as me? Should I ask her? I hesitated to talk to her. There were so many people in the car, most of them were sent by their parents, so there was a lot of laughter and laughter in the car, but those laughter and laughter belonged to others and did not belong to me. Although I sat with the short-haired girl, we didn't speak for a long time, because I didn't know how to communicate with strangers, especially strange girls, and I didn't know what to say.
But after thinking about it for a long time, I went out alone, and I always found someone to talk to, her accent is the same as mine, maybe she is from her hometown, since she is a student of the same school, her hometown must be more intimate!
I have never been out of Sichuan before, I have gone out of Sichuan in an instant, at this time I finally have a feeling of leaving my hometown, at this moment I heard the hometown dialect feel so kind, at this moment I decided to break this silence.
I finally spoke: "Are you from Dujiangyan?" ”
The girl replied, "No! I'm from Chongzhou. ”
"Oh...... I mean, our accents are so similar, they are so close. I said.
"Oh! Where are you from? The girl asked.
"Me! It's the border with you! After crossing the road, it is the boundary of your Chongzhou! I said.
"Huh! That's close! The girl said with a smile.
"That's right! Fellow! My name is Zhijun, what about you? I said.
The girl replied, "My name is Xiao Tao, and they all call me Peaches." ”
"Huh! Then I'll call you that! I laughed.
"Yes! We're on the same train, which carriage are you in? I feel as if I've seen you. ”
"Car No. 2. Oh...... Oops, I remember, you seem to be the girl sitting across from me, did you later switch seats with the other girl's father and left? ”
Momoko smiled and nodded, "Yes!" You're the one sitting across from you and silent! ”
"Yes! By the way, which department are you from? I laughed.
"I'm from the Dharma." Momoko replied.
"Oh! I'm from the physics department. I replied.
……
Isn't such a coincidence fate?
It is indeed not easy to go to other provinces and meet a fellow whose home is so close. A whole carload of people with the same accent as the two of us, it's even harder.
Laughter and laughter along the way, we had a good chat.
At this moment, I no longer feel lonely, I no longer feel sad at this moment, and I seem to have forgotten the melancholy of leaving home......
Before I knew it, the car had been driving for an hour, and I looked out the window at this time, and the Chongqing Expressway was really different from other places, either caves or high bridges.
I don't remember how many holes I went through, how many bridges I crossed, maybe all the time! Looking at the speeding scenery outside the car window, I seem to be a little anxious in my heart, isn't it Fuling District? Why haven't you arrived after an hour?
"Why haven't you arrived yet?" I asked suddenly.
"Looks like we're only halfway there!" Momoko said.
"What? It's only half the way! Isn't it in a district of Chongqing? How can it be so far? I asked, confused.
"Hey! You don't know that! There are districts in Chongqing that are farther away than this Fuling District! Momoko said.
Hearing this, my heart was cold, and it seemed that I had been deceived by words again.
"Isn't this a pit man?" I said.
"Alright! Don't think so much, once you come, you will be safe. Momoko said with a smile.
"Hey! That's all there is to it! I said.
……
Chatting with Peaches, chatting happily, more than two hours passed unconsciously, and I heard the person next to me say that it was almost time to school.
Momoko took out a piece of paper and wrote a phone number, handed it to me and said, "This is my number!" Turn around and call me! ”
"Yes! Good! I said in a note.
At this time, the speed of the car slowly slowed down, and when I turned the corner, I saw two big characters "Koto" written on the road sign. I suddenly thought of a poem by Li Qingzhao: "I still think of Xiang Yu and refuse to cross Jiangdong." ”
Could it be that this is the ancient battlefield of the year, and it is not a loss to come here.
The car turned a corner, and then another corner, and I can't remember how many turns it took at the end, and finally I saw the gate of the school.
We've finally arrived, and this is the university we've always dreamed of. But the university seems to be much more magnificent than our high school, the door is very high, and it is also very rich in culture, I can't describe it.
The car drove into the school gate, stopped, and Momoko and I each got out of the car with our own things, and after getting off the bus, the senior of the law department took her away, and I got out of the car to take a look.
There was a long staircase at the door, and on the staircase was a big house, I don't know what it was for. Turning left and entering is a large auditorium, and looking at the auditorium, I feel that the university is really different from our high school, really different.
Actually, I was a hillbilly who went into town, and I didn't know anything, not even the direction.
Look at the right side, there are a few steps, and after going up there is a forest, and there are some stone tables and stone benches in the woods, and I don't know what they are used for, because I have never seen them before.
Just when I didn't know where to go, I suddenly heard someone shouting, "Is there a physics department?" There is no physics department! ”
Hearing the shouting, I walked over to him.
It's time to take a break when you write this, and if you want to know the results later, please stay tuned to the next chapter - how did you first arrive!
