Chapter 2 Following
The next day, Dididi~DidiDi~, the irritable and disturbing alarm clock rang, Lin Yi opened his eyes in a daze, groped with his right hand for a long time, and finally turned off the alarm clock.
For a year, he has been using his free time to find Wen Ran, but the city is so crowded that looking for someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and the chances are slim.
Lin Yi looked at the ceiling in a daze, next to the bed was a white lacquered solid wood cabinet, leaning against the wardrobe was a half-meter-high bay window, the window of the bay window was still hidden, and the cold wind blew up the floral curtains, and the cold wind hit the whole room. Diagonally opposite the bed was a small desk, on which were visited with strange books, a round pen with a full belly was placed on the table, and a thick stack of A4 paper was full of place names, most of which were circled, and should have been searched.
The pleasant mobile phone ringtone, Lin Yi put the mobile phone to his ear, and before he could speak, he heard a deafening sound from the other side, which frightened Lin Yi to take the mobile phone away from him, "Hey, haven't you gotten up yet, we are all waiting for you, you come quickly!"
Without thinking about it, Lin Yi guessed that it was his sworn friend Li Li, and he was the only one who had this violent temper, although Li Li was short-tempered, but as a brother, he was very righteous. Now that they have graduated and gone their separate ways, Lin Yi stayed in this city for Wen Ran, and Li Li stayed for his brother, Li Li drank too much on the day of graduation, hugged Lin Yi's shoulder and patted his chest and said, "Yizi, I will stay in the same city with you in the future, and our brothers are inseparable." ”。
On the phone, Lin Yi smiled bitterly, "What are you yelling at early in the morning, my ears are deaf from your yelling." ”
"Nonsense, brother, come quickly, I'm waiting for you at the Black Riding Café, I've said I'm going to get together, and a few of our classmates are here today." Li Li still said loudly.
"Okay, okay, I know, then I'll hang up first, I'll see you later!"
Lin Yi got up and came to the bay window, looking out of the window, the height of the thirteenth floor gave a clear view of the surrounding environment, the wind outside the window was raging, the glass shook and whined, there was no trace of dawn in the dim sky, and all the buildings were dyed with a thick layer of gray.
"Hey, the weather forecast seems to say that it's sunny today, why has it changed so much?" Lin Yi was slightly surprised, and said with a frown.
Before going out, he added a gray windbreaker, refined figure, with slim clothes, it seems to be back to the popular appearance of college.
...
"Hi Yiko, here. As soon as he got out of the taxi, a young man with an inch head waved and shouted from afar.
Lin Yi approached and said happily, "Li Li, I haven't seen you for more than half a year, you still look like this, you look like a fitness salesman." ”
Li Li looks much burder than Lin Yi, if Lin Yi's figure is thin in clothes and fleshy in undressing, then Li Li is a strong man and fitness expert, and his muscles are exaggerated to support his clothes.
"Didn't you say that there are still classmates, where are they?" Lin Yi casually found a chair to sit down, and then beckoned the waiter over, "Mocha, thank you!"
"They came right away, and it was strange to say, why was this weather so scary, when the weather forecast said it was sunny. ”
Hearing Li Li say this, Lin Yi couldn't help but look at the sky, at this time he finally calmed down and looked at the transparency and thoroughness, the gray sky with dark clouds rolling, the faint purple thunder and lightning were rolling, like a deep-sea dragon galloping, magnificent, and the momentum was overwhelming. Lin Yi stared at the inside of the clouds, suddenly, his pupils widened, because he seemed to see the existence of living beings in the thunderclouds, like a unicorn, falling on all fours, turning clouds and rain, lifting his feet, walking thousands of miles, but unfortunately the hazy gray clouds blocked him and couldn't see clearly.
"What are you looking at, Yiko. Li Li said.
"Ah, no, nothing. ”
Five or six minutes later, a taxi stopped in front of the coffee shop, and two girls got out of the car, they were slim, beautifully dressed, good-looking, still the same youth as in college, and walking on the road was a charming scenery.
"Hi, Lin Yi, Li Li. I'm sorry to be late, this ghost weather looks like a violent storm is going to fall, and the cars on the road are not easy to stop. One of the girls in a beige trench coat said apologetically.
"It's okay, Xiang Xue'er, we've just arrived. What do you want to drink?" Li Li said, and at the same time, his face turned red.
"Waiter, two cappuccinos. ”
"Okay, beauty"
Lin Yi looked at Li Lihongtong's face and couldn't help but smile, Li Li, this guy has liked Xiang Xue'er since his freshman year, and now that he has graduated, he hasn't caught up yet. He is very arrogant in front of anyone, and only by Cher's side will he be obedient and shy.
"Your Mocha is ready. The waiter's voice rang out.
"Thank you. Lin Yi took the coffee, took a sip, and said with a smile, "Long time no see, Xiang Xue'er, Fang Yu! ”
The girl named Fang Yu heard this, and her face instantly blushed to the point of hotness, but she was still sitting dignified and beautiful with her well-behaved and quiet personality. Lin Yi knew that Fang Yu's face was very thin and she blushed easily, so she wanted to tease her.
"It's so strange today, I didn't say that there would be thunder, and it looked like it would inevitably thunder and rain. Xiang Xue'er frowned slightly and said.
"Cher, I'll send you back later. Li Li hurriedly said, not letting go of any opportunity to make contact.
The four of them chatted for a while, and everything about the university came to mind, who liked whom, who chased whom, and they all laughed and talked.
"By the way, Lin Yi, how are you and her?" asked Xue'er.
Lin Yi knew that she was asking about Wen Ran, although Wen Ran was one year older than them, Xiang Xue'er, Fang Yu and Wen Ran were all from the same club, and Wen Ran was not only their senior sister, but also the president of the club, so they also knew some things about Lin Yi and Wen Ran.
Lin Yi shook his head, showing embarrassment, and said, "I still can't contact her, in this big city, it's easy for her to avoid me." But I wonder if she's not going to be in this empty city anymore. ”
Saying that, Lin Yi's originally blazing eyes dimmed a little, Wen Ran's position in his heart was too important, and his every move affected his emotions.
"Lin Yi, do you believe in the existence of immortals? It is said in the "Sutra of Virtuous Tribulation" that there are 84,000 methods of Buddhism, and all of them can become Buddhas. Xue'er looked at Lin Yi, as if she wanted to see through him, and then said, "There is a saying in Taoism, 'Those who want to seek immortals should be based on loyalty and filial piety and shun benevolence. If virtue is not cultivated, and if you do not practice it, you will not be able to live forever.'" ”
"Are you sure there is no other world than ours?"
"You are a materialist, an apostle of reality and science, do you believe in ethereal things?"
Xue'er asked three times in a row, and his aggressive tone made him start to be less confident in materialism, Lin Yi recalled what Wen Ran had said to him, "Lin Yi, do you believe that there is another world? ”
At that time, Wen Ran said this looking at the sky, and it happened that it was also a dim and misty sky that day, and the black and oppressive clouds covered the sky and the sun, just like today.
Lin Yi didn't know why at the time, but he still replied very seriously, "I believe that there must be other life and civilization besides the earth. But the people who fly away from the sky, I don't really believe it, let alone raise your hand to extinguish and revive your thoughts. ”
"Wen Ran, why are you asking this question?" Lin Yi asked with deep confusion.
"Nothing, I'll just ask. After speaking, Wen Ran touched Lin Yi's head, rampled his hair, and continued, "My brother is so cute, my sister will ask, you still have a serious answer." ”
"If you go somewhere else, I'll get you back, and if you're in danger, I'll help you get rid of all obstacles. ”
Wen Ran was stunned for a moment, then turned to smile and said, "My brother is so good, and he knows how to protect me! ”
"Don't worry, I won't break my word. ”
Wen Ran gritted her teeth and said in a voice that only she could hear, "It's a pity that we are not destined to be together." ”
...
When he came back to his senses, Lin Yi looked at the sky, the clouds trembled, tumbling vigorously, lightning and thunder, purple and red lightning toppled down the entire sky, and the whistling storm was like a mad dog.
In a similar situation to that day, no wonder Lin Yi felt so familiar, "Familiar?" He suddenly had a bold thought, perhaps, this world is not the only one.
"Xue'er, Fang Yu, did Wen Ran say anything when I met you last time? "The wind is like a treasure, although the idea is a bit fanciful, but he has a little bit of faith.
"Yizi, what's going on, how happy to be like this. Li Li looked at Lin Yi from the side, suddenly excited, and asked curiously.
"Can you tell me that the more details, the better. The more Lin Yi spoke, the more excited he became.
Xue'er didn't know why, she just asked Lin Yi what Wen Ran had said again, she didn't know why Lin Yi was so excited, and hurriedly comforted her, "Don't get excited, let me think about it, Wen Ran hasn't contacted us for a year, I'll try to remember." ”
At this time, Fang Yu, who didn't speak much, said, "I still remember the last trip, I originally made an appointment to travel together, but Wen Ran had to go to Wudang Mountain temporarily, and he didn't want us to accompany him." ”
"Wudang Mountain. Lin Yi suddenly realized, and said silently, "Wen Ran, I won't break my word." ”
