Chapter Twenty-Five—The Island Is in Sight

In Lu Dongsheng's memories, the train has arrived at the provincial capital, the provincial capital is a big station, stopping for 20 minutes, the time is already 7:00 in the evening, the orange lights of the provincial platform shine in through the window, flashing the carriage like an old movie, full of smoky nostalgia and memory atmosphere.

I went out to buy something, and we will have dinner in a while, Yang Jinghui suggested, Lu Dongsheng also felt that he had to get up and stretch his muscles, and he also felt a little physically and mentally exhausted from the memories along the way just now. So go to the platform with Yang Jinghui to choose food, the platform is selling red sausage and bread everywhere, it is a foreign food, but it has taken root in the provincial capital, these two kinds of food have become synonymous with the provincial capital, the red sausage is not all lean meat, there are some large pieces of fatty meat, red yeast rice, garlic and pepper are added when filling the red sausage, and the mouth is mixed with the salty aroma of garlic, especially with bread, it has a different flavor, if the red sausage is cut into slices and eaten, it will not make people feel greasy. As for the bread, it is a bit exaggerated, but it is also in line with the bold characteristics of the provincial people, like a small pillow, which can be the size of a small basin, generally baked with rye, without so much oil and decoration, revealing a kind of roughness and boldness.

In the past, Lu Dongsheng often took this car to see Yongzi, and every time he passed through the provincial capital, he would often buy these two things, and Yongzi's whole family also liked these two delicacies.

Lu Dongsheng asked Yang Jinghui to buy an extra one, but he still subconsciously remembered to take it for Yongzi.

Yang Jinghui saw that there was a place selling drinks, which were large beer bottles with Russian written on them, and stepped forward to inquire carefully, and the seller told him that this drink was made of bread, although it was a drink, but it also had an alcohol content, and it was recommended not to drink more. Yang Jinghui bought a few more bottles and brought them with them. I bought some more cucumbers and sauce and went back to the car.

When they arrived at the station in the provincial capital, people began to get on the train in the box one after another, and there were no longer only the two of them in the sleeper.

The night is destined to be sleepless, and it is also destined to be tossing and turning. The lights in the carriage have been extinguished, and the lights from some towns that occasionally pass through show dappled light and shadow, piece by piece, Lu Dongsheng's ears vaguely heard the sound of the sea tide, the sadness of the past two days made him physically and mentally exhausted, and he slowly fell asleep in the faint sound of the sea tide.

Yang Jinghui was moved by the deep friendship between Lu Dongsheng and Yongzi, and he didn't know that the friendship between men could surpass love and even life and death. In his mind this night, his dreams were different from before, they had nothing to do with her or them, as if he was on the battlefield, and all he heard was the horn of the charge......

At 5:00 a.m., the flight attendant came to exchange tickets for Lu Dongsheng and Yang Jinghui, and the two simply sorted out and got off at a small station. Another two hours by car from this small station will arrive at XX Port, and then transfer to a passenger ferry to reach Changping Island. Near the sea, even the air becomes moist, and the air wafts with the salty smell of the wind, is this the smell of the sea? Yang Jinghui couldn't help but think.

At about seven o'clock, the two arrived at XX Port, there was nearly an hour before the first passenger ferry went to sea, the two of them found a porridge shop nearby and had some breakfast, Yang Jinghui felt that the mountain eats the mountain, the sea eats the sea, the more expensive porridge in Xing'an and even Jiangchuan and other places, but here it is commonplace, the porridge is mixed with crab and shrimp steak meat, it should be a veritable seafood porridge, the price is equivalent to the preserved egg and meat porridge at home, and the xiaolongbao is filled with shrimp and leeks, which has a fresh fragrance. It cost less than ten yuan for a meal.

The whistle of the steamer was heard in the harbor, and the two entered the port station, checked the tickets and boarded the ship, which was two floors up and down, and did not have to be seated in the opposite number, and the crowd of people who rushed in quickly walked in to occupy their favorite seats first. Yang Jinghui and Lu Dongsheng poured into the upper floor with the crowd and found two seats by a window. In fact, there were enough seats, and when everyone was seated, the steamer turned around and set sail at half past eight. After sailing out for a while, the crowd that had been sitting still began to move again, walking to the sides of the boat to look at the sea. Lu Dongsheng said to Yang Jinghui, you haven't seen the sea, go out and take a look, I'll take a break, Yang Jinghui got up and went to the deck to see the sea.

The boat is not very fast, about 40 kilometers per hour, this is Yang Jinghui's intuition, standing at the bow of the boat, blowing the sea breeze head-on, looking at the sea and sky in front of him, unable to see the edge, Yang Jinghui felt very small, at that moment recalled some philosophical knowledge when he was reading, the existence of human beings is the product of human beings fighting against nature and common progress with society, human beings only face the sea, will they feel their own fragility, will they feel uneasy, for a long time in the sea can not see the edge, can not rely on the shore of the sea drifting, The idea of finding a land dock as soon as possible came to mind, which may be the driving force behind the dreams of the great navigators. Feeling the breath of the sea head-on, the waves of the sea are magnificent, Yang Jinghui wants to stretch out his hands to embrace the sea. Yang Jinghui ran to the stern of the boat again, the propeller at the stern of the boat rotated the air into the seawater, churning the seawater, pushing away the long waves, jumping and chasing the boat, mixed with the air and the churning waves are so white, so cheerful, no wonder some people will feel, if you are happy, please come to see the sea, listen to the tide beating the rocks, the sea is happy. If you are sad, please come and see the sea, the sea breeze is gusting, the waves are whimpering, and the sea will grieve with you. In short, no matter what your mood is, the sea is inclusive, you will always get a response, and you will find the resonance of that beat in your own mood. Yang Jinghui looked at the sea water carefully, the sea water is not so blue as described in the book, looking down vertically, the sea water is blue and blue, after looking at it for a long time, it will produce an illusion, and the impenetrable seabed seems to be beckoning, leading you down. Yang Jinghui was a little dizzy, looking at the sea level, the sky was a little cloudy, the sun did not come out, and the sea was gray.

Occasionally, one or two unnamed seabirds would pass by in the sky, and occasionally a large mass of white jellyfish would be seen floating on the surface of the sea. Feeling that he had seen enough, Yang Jinghui returned to the cabin, Lu Dongsheng was closing his eyes, as if he was asleep, and he was hesitating whether to call him, his waist shook, he took out the pager to look, and a text message came, where did he go? No news. May.
