Chapter 1 Sucking the weeping willow to death, forced to go to college
Chapter 1 sucks the weeping willow to death and is forced to go to college
After the college entrance examination, the graduates of each school turned on the crazy mode, and the same was true of Wenji High School. On campus, they are crazy to make noise, crazy to tear books and sell books, crazy to take pictures and frolic, crazy to enjoy the youth they have never had...... They look like jailbreak maniacs and make a mess of the whole campus. There were scraps of paper everywhere, everywhere was full of shouting noises, shredded pieces of paper were full of the dilemma of liberation, and the noise was full of the joy of freedom.
However, in the pavilion in the center of the lotus pond, a boy leaned against the railing, touched his nose with his right hand, and stared blankly at the lotus flower blooming in the center of the pond.
The boy's name was Zhang Shuhai, and he was an active student with good grades, but he was constantly engaged in an ideological struggle between continuing to go to college and dropping out.
"Zhang Shuhai, what are you doing hiding here?" It was Zhang Shuhai's good friend Wu Guang who spoke, and they had been studying in the same school since junior high school.
"It's a little annoying, let's clean up!" Zhang Shuhai said.
"The exams are over, what are you bothering about? Your grades are so good, you are still annoying, do you still let you live! Wu Guang took a folding fan, walked quickly to the pavilion, and complained.
"I'm not bothered by this. Why didn't you go crazy with them? Zhang Shuhai asked rhetorically.
"I'll go, it's almost noon, it's time to eat after a while." Wu Guang shook the folding fan vigorously, and then asked, "What are you just bothered about?" ”
Zhang Shuhai glanced at Wu Guang twice, hesitated, and said: "I'm thinking about whether to continue studying, going to university, I feel that after more than ten years of study, it's useless." ”
Wu Guang was a little surprised when he heard this, his eyes widened, he smiled, and said, "You are bothered by this?" Are you sick and don't continue to study, what do you want to do, go home to farm, and gnaw on the old? ”
Zhang Shuhai said: "Can't you have a little more advanced pursuit? ”
Wu Guang was a little disdainful and replied, "What pursuit is more advanced than going to college?" It's not that I'm talking about you, you're not Bill Gates, and you don't have any special skills. You can faint during military training, and if you really go home, you won't be able to stand it in a few days. ”
Zhang Shuhai pursed his lips and did not continue to argue, but he was reminded of the scene of military training, and there was a reason why he fainted.
After the high school entrance examination, Zhang Shuhai went to work in the farmland, and the weather was very hot that day, so he planned to wash in the river after the work was over.
The small river in the village is not deep, and the deepest place is no more than Zhang Shuhai's waist, and he hummed a song while enjoying a moment of coolness in the water. However, just as he was complacent, he felt as if he had stepped on a sharp object on the sole of his right foot, and a sharp pain came.
Zhang Shuhai was stunned for a moment while holding his feet, and then cursed loudly and groped to the river, but when he turned over the soles of his feet, he found that there was no wound, only pain.
"What the hell, what the hell!" Zhang Shuhai scolded.
However, the pain in the foot was only the beginning, and after a few seconds, Zhang Shuhai felt a little numbness in his foot, but the pain began to move up from the sole of his foot, and he stomped his foot in pain. calves, thighs, waist, back, neck, head, chest...... As if there was a miraculous guidance, the pain moved in his body little by little, and after the pain was numbness, until he was numb all over his body, and he had no strength to stand up, so he had to sit down under the tree. And this was only a little more than a minute, and the time was so short that Zhang Shuhai didn't remember to call for help, and he didn't even have the strength to call for help.
"Was it a snake bite and poisoned? Or are you haunted by ghosts? I still have a lot of youth, and I don't want to die yet. Zhang Shuhai couldn't speak, but he kept thinking about the reason for this incident, but he couldn't figure it out.
However, what Zhang Shuhai didn't see was that under him, there were even worse things than him, those originally lush green turned yellow at a visible speed, and the willow trees behind him, in this midsummer season, withered and grew old rapidly, and after a while, the yellow leaves flew all over the place, and the leaves covered Zhang Shuhai's increasingly pale body.
When Zhang Shuhai woke up again, it was already evening, he didn't feel any discomfort, the pain and numbness all over his body disappeared, the only difference was the black stench of his whole body and the willow trees that had dried up. He looked around strangely, and then with some fear, he quickly put on his clothes and ran home, and even though his whole body stenched, he did not have the slightest idea of bathing in the river again.
However, the matter did not end here, after that strange thing happened, Zhang Shuhai became very prone to hunger and dizziness, obviously full of food, within three hours, his whole body seemed to be empty, hungry to death. And what's even worse is that he has eaten a lot of things, but his weight has been declining, Zhang Shuhai's mother also asked strangely, and even took him to the hospital to check several times, but found that Zhang Shuhai's body was very healthy and there was nothing wrong with him at all.
Since then, Zhang Shuhai has been very uncomfortable even dreaming, every time he dreams, he will feel like he is in a purple leaky balloon, and after an hour or two, the air in the balloon will leak out, and he will wake up in the dream, and after waking up, he will look for food. Many times, Zhang's mother has been a thief at home for a while, and there will always be a lot less food in the kitchen at night.
Such days did not last long, until Zhang Shuhai found an alternative method other than eating, where he found a tree and grabbed it with his hands for a while, which could have the effect of replacing eating, and his mind became very clear.
"That willow tree, could it be that he was sucked to death?" Zhang Shuhai was skeptical. "Am I not poisoned in the river, yes, mutated?" He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't find the right words to describe his current state, so he had to use the word mutation.
In the following days, it will become much better, as long as Zhang Shuhai finds a few trees regularly every day and absorbs some energy from the trees, he will be the same as a normal person, and even feel better than before. His skin became smoother, his body felt lighter, his strength increased, and his mind became clearer...... So much so that he became so excited that he seemed to wake up laughing from a dream.
However, there was one bad thing, it was the time of military training.
It stands to reason that Zhang Shuhai's body is getting stronger and stronger, and this military training will be very easy for him, but the energy replenishment every two or three hours makes him feel very troublesome. During military training, he often trained for more than three hours at a time, coupled with the consumption of exercise, Zhang Shuhai suddenly felt unable to hold on, and fainted very simply.
However, a fainting allowed him to solve the problem of military training, he could not be with everyone, but sit by and watch others be trained, in addition to leaving a bad impression of "physical weakness" to everyone, other times it was very comfortable.
In high school, because of the living school, there were many inconveniences for him, and he had to sneak out every night, like a thief, but he had a good skill in climbing over the wall.
The interval between energy supplements has also become longer with time, and by the third year of high school, it can already last eight to nine hours.
During the winter vacation of his junior year of high school, Zhang Shuhai found another thing that made him want to drop out of school. That thing is that he can not only absorb plant energy, but also release energy, although the consumption is relatively large, but he said that the energy released is indeed very useful to plants, can promote plant growth.
Therefore, he has been planning to make good use of his talent and exercise it well, so that studying in school becomes a burden.
"Alas!" Thinking of this, Zhang Shuhai sighed.
"What do you think, do you want to eat?" Wu Guang interrupted Zhang Shuhai's distraction.
"Well, let's go, let's talk about dropping out later!" Zhang Shuhai touched his nose and said.
Wu Guang knocked Zhang Shuhai's head with a fan and said: "Don't give up, you really don't want to go to school, when you get home, I just promised your parents, your seven aunts and eight aunts, relatives and friends and everything will persuade you to dispel your thoughts, and then the saliva will bury you." ”
Zhang Shuhai shook his head thoughtfully and depressedly.
Wu Guang continued: "What's more, college studies are very easy now, if you want to do anything, you can do it when you get to college, it's a big deal to skip class, if you really make some achievements and drop out, you also have a little confidence." Do you need to drop out of school so early! ”
Zhang Shuhai felt that Wu Guang was reasonable, and it was also for his own good, but he was still unwilling, touched his nose again, and said, "Depressed!" ”
"In life, unsatisfactory things are common." Wu Guang turned on the Tang Seng mode and said the big truth: "You haven't reached the time when you are really depressed, how do you say that sentence, 'Say worry about the new words', you are like this, a full man does not know that a hungry man is hungry." The grades are so good, and I didn't fail the test, and I can't get on. ”
"Line up, long-winded." Zhang Shuhai put the idea of dropping out of school in his heart for the time being.
Zhang Shuhai himself also understands that there are many obstacles to dropping out, the current environment is not fair to rural people, there are few ways out, in the eyes of many people, learning has become one of the few good ways for rural people to get ahead, and when he has not let others trust him, he has no power to change the status quo.
However, Zhang Shuhai still held on to a bit of luck, hoping that someone in the family could understand him. So, as if jokingly, he mentioned dropping out, and greeted him as Wu Guang said, language bombardment, and heart-to-heart education. His relatives and friends stared at him and checked his grades, helped him choose a major, and pushed him on the path that had already been opened.
In this case, Zhang Shuhai could only try his best to plan for himself, hoping to choose a school and major that was slightly better for him, and, in order to have a little more free space, he chose to study in Suzhou, which was a little far away from home.
Although Zhang Shuhai's grades could allow him to go to a better school, he was gagged by him with the excuse of "either go to Suzhou or not study". Although his parents did not want to see him so decadent, there was no better way, and now they could only take a step back and compromise with each other.
However, Zhang's father was obviously not so easy to fool, he said: "You little rabbit cub, did you plan earlier that you didn't want to go to Beijing, what's so good about Suzhou?" Even our Xuzhou mine is better than your choice. ”
And Zhang Shuhai replied lightly: "The air is good." ”
Dad Zhang sarcastically said: "The air is good, and it is more comfortable to drink the northwest wind, right?" ”
Zhang Shuhai replied: "I haven't drunk it, I don't know where it's delicious." ”
Father Zhang said a little mysteriously: "Then you kid will drink it in the future." ”
Zhang Shuhai felt that something was wrong, he had to drink the northwest wind to go to college together, this is to cut off the rhythm of economic resources, this is unacceptable. He pretended to be confused, touched his nose, and asked weakly, "Dad, what do you mean by this!" ”
Dad Zhang was happy, but in the end, he was still "one foot high, one foot high", he smiled and said: "You are almost a college student, you can't understand it?" ”
Zhang Shuhai turned his head and complained to his mother: "Mom, Dad told me to drink the northwest wind. ”
Before Zhang's mother could answer, Zhang's father said a little arrogantly: "You scream, it's useless to scream and cut your throat, you have hardened your wings after graduating from high school, you can't support yourself and want to quit school, honestly go to school for Lao Tzu, if you let me know that you skip class or fail the exam or something, I will let you drink in turn." ”
Zhang's mother said: "Don't say a word, Xiaohai, go to college if you are admitted, you look at others, how many people want to go and have no chance, you can't say quitting anymore." ”
Zhang Shuhai said resentfully: "It's on the top, you have to have living expenses, right?" ”
Zhang's mother said: "You are an adult, if you have the ability, you can earn your own money, if you don't have the ability to earn money, I will send it to you, anyway, you can't be hungry." ”
Zhang Shuhai pursed his lips, what kind of sin is this, if he asks for money again, he will be incompetent, obviously he has to bow his head, and he can't breathe when he speaks. He lowered his head and said carefully: "I haven't seen the New Year's money I have kept since I was a child, and now my living expenses are gone." ”
Zhang's mother smiled and said, "The New Year's money will be used to pay your tuition earlier." ”
After saying something that was not nutritious, Zhang Shuhai began to worry about his current situation, his family seemed to be preparing to cut off his financial resources, if he couldn't make money, wouldn't he be underestimated by them. With less than two months to go until the start of school in September, it's time to find a way to earn a living expenses.
