Chapter 21
"Well, if you really want to follow, I'll see you at the school gate in ten minutes."
After a few minutes of "argument based on reason" between the two sides, Xiao Mozhu couldn't resist the other party and compromised.
"Whew......!"
With a sigh, Xiao Mozhu sat down on the chair, ready to wait a few minutes before going out.
"Are you going too?" Since there are already people with him, one more is not too much, Xiao Mozhu, who was thinking so, asked Shi Ming casually.
Moving on the bed, Shi Ming yawned and said, "Where are you going?" ”
"Sweep the grave." Xiao Mozhu said in a calm tone.
There was a moment of silence in the 202 bedroom, and after a while, Shi Ming said: "Then I won't go, such a heavy trip, I'll still be a lazy person for a day." ”
Nodding, Xiao Mozhu didn't say anything more, and it was the easiest thing to answer nothing.
The autumn rain is continuous, and the cool breeze is blowing.
He Bailing, who didn't know where they were about to go, each held an umbrella and followed behind Xiao Mozhu, starting from the Economic Management Institute, all the way through Caida and arriving at Jinsha Station.
However, Jinsha Station was not Xiao Mozhu's destination, but the place of departure, greeting three girls, and a group of four people got on the No. 69 bus.
Gradually, You Xiaoyun, Huang Fuzhen, and He Bailing also discovered that the atmosphere was wrong, and along the way, Xiao Mozhu just told the three of them to "get in the car, get off, go left, go right, cross the road", etc., and they didn't say anything when asked.
Finally, after a toss, somewhere in the northern suburbs of Rongzhou, Xiao Mozhu stood quietly for a while and put away his umbrella.
The rain has not stopped, and the oppressive atmosphere of this place has made the three of them look at each other.
The former mausoleum of Huangqiu, like the mountain gate of the scenic spot, is written on the plaque hanging high.
Under the leadership of Xiao Mozhu, the three of them also entered this place called "Huangqiu Former Mausoleum".
Quiet, calm and peaceful! The road is long and guarded, and well-groomed pines and cypresses can be seen everywhere on both sides of the road.
The sound of falling rain, water droplets, footsteps, and the sound of the sound were in the ears, and this place was gradually guessed by the three of Huangfu Zhen.
When they reached a certain section of the road, their vision suddenly widened, and two rows of tall pines and cypresses on the side of the road also stopped there.
The paths spread in all directions, and where they passed, they were all in different directions......
Tombstone.
Xiao Mozhu did not pause here, but walked straight in a certain direction, and it seemed that it was not the first time he had come to the "Huangqiu Ancient Mausoleum".
In a secluded place in the cemetery, Xiao Mozhu finally stopped.
There is no flower surrounding, there is no gorgeous decoration, a simple tomb is lying quietly in a corner of the cemetery, there is no dust and mud dirt in the edges and corners of the tomb in the rain, and a basket of fresh fruits in front of the monument also shows that someone came to pay tribute not long ago.
Xiao Mozhu had a solemn expression, standing motionless three feet in front of the tombstone, and did not make any other movements, just looked at the tombstone, letting the falling raindrops lap on him.
This situation made the accompanying Huangfu Zhen, You Xiaoyun, and He Bailing also feel distressed, and they didn't want to disturb Xiao Mozhu at this time.
The front of the tombstone is clean and tidy, and unlike the other thousands of tombstones in the cemetery, the inscription on this tombstone is very simple, with only two columns.
Center: The tomb of Xiao Caiyue.
Bottom right: Died on September 15, 1589 in the summer calendar, at the age of 9.
There is no date of birth and no person who erected the monument, and the inscription is as simple as a tomb.
He Bailing and the three of them folded their palms together reverently, closed their eyes and prayed.
Nineteen years ago, she passed away at the age of 9, this Xiao Caiyue should be Xiao Mozhu's sister! The girls couldn't help but think so.
Xiao Mozhu didn't stay long, and the memorial in the rain took the girls out of the "Huangqiu Tomb" in less than ten minutes.
"That's your sister, right?" Outside the old mausoleum, You Xiaoyun asked tentatively.
Nodding, Xiao Mozhu was about to explain that today was specifically to visit this "Sister Caiyue", when the ringtone of the mobile phone rang inappropriately.
Toot, toot, toot.
After connecting the phone, Xiao Mozhu interrupted the usual ringtone of the caller.
"Hello?"
"Hey, hey, hey, I'm your dad!" A rough voice roared on the other side.
"Oh." Xiao Mozhu responded calmly.
The other party was silent for a moment, and then asked in a somewhat painful and hoarse voice, "Have you gone to see Caiyue?"
"I just came out of the cemetery, and I'm still at the door."
"Well, that's fine. By the way, it's quite close to home, why don't you come back? ”
"No, I'm with my friends and friends."
"Oh?" The other party seemed to be suddenly interested, and hurriedly asked, "Boyfriend or girlfriend?" ”
"Girlfriend, huh? Old man, you talk to me! It's a female friend, a female classmate! Xiao Mozhu really couldn't take this "naughty" father, explained.
"Hehe, I know, I know, have fun, if you bully girls, be careful that Caiyue jumps out and beats you!"
"Alright, alright, so be it!" Hung up the call helplessly, Xiao Mozhu looked at his phone and shook his head.
The rain was not loud, and the content of the call was also heard by the three people next to him, He Bailing smiled, and the other two looked a little embarrassed.
Puzzled, he glanced at Huangfu Zhen and You Xiaoyun, Xiao Mozhu reopened the umbrella and asked, "Okay, my business has been done, where do you want to go next?"
"I just heard that your house is not far from here? In that case, you should be familiar with it, and you should also know better which places are worth visiting, right? He Bailing asked rhetorically.
"Perhaps, but it's actually because it's close, so I don't think there's anything special about it."
"Okay." He Bailing thought about it and felt that it made sense, and said, "Is there any place in Rongzhou that is closer to here, and has a landscape that other cities don't have?" ”
Xiao Mozhu thought for a while, pointed to the south, and said, "Zhuqi, Zhuqi Breeding Zoo is a good choice."
"Okay, I also want to see the bamboo tree again, I heard that there are so many bamboo trees in Rongzhou that everyone has one, is it true?" You Xiaoyun asked excitedly.
The result was obvious, You Xiaoyun also felt that he had asked a stupid question, and his face was flushed with shame.
On this day, Xiao Mozhu didn't bother to do anything, but he rarely felt tired.
Walking on the way back to school from Jinsha Station, the rain gradually stopped, and instead of taking a taxi to school, You Xiaoyun and the three agreed to walk through this more poetic and winding path.
He Bailing thinks that his day as an audience has been very fulfilling, not to mention the two of Huangfu Zhen and You Xiaoyun.
In front of Building 2 of the women's dormitory and Xiao Mozhu, He Bailing, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but bend his fingers, flicked on the foreheads of You Xiaoyun and Huangfu Zhen, and said, "Two big girls, have you lost your soul?" We're home! If you look at it again, it will become a stone of hope. ”
"you, why are you getting naughty?" You Xiaoyun poked He Bailing on the shoulder as if she was fighting back, suddenly thought of something, turned around and walked in front of Huangfu Zhen, and before she could react, she picked up the green silk that fell from her forehead.
The withered yellow mark was still the same, and there was no sign of it dissipating, You Xiaoyun pressed it lightly, and asked Huangfu Zhen nervously, "Does it hurt?"
Turning his eyes upward, Huangfu really tilted his head and said, "It doesn't hurt at all, but, isn't it ugly?"
Seeing that there was really nothing wrong with Huangfu, You Xiaoyun smiled and said, "How come? Not only is it not ugly, but the literary girl also has a little more mystery and charming! ”
Huangfu really smiled, and was about to raise his feet to go upstairs, but He Bailing next to him said: "Tsk, it's so sour, why do I feel like an aunt and a second ......?"
"Shut up!" You Xiaoyun and Huangfu Zhen reprimanded at the same time.
Autumn has arrived, the night is slightly cool, maybe this kind of night should be a good night's sleep, after the summer and before the winter, the weather is the most comfortable day.
Again, a sleepless night is not only for Xiao Mozhu.
Shi Ming had already started his fantasy journey in his dreams, and the vague dream words depicted his dreams as if they were broadcast live.
"A wave has not settled, a wave has risen, the previous flower demon on the other side has not been solved, and now a new enemy has appeared, You Xiaoyun and Huangfu Zhen have been involved in the incident, how to deal with it?" Xiao Mozhu lay on his back on the bed, his hands resting on the back of his head, feeling bored and thinking.
The mobile phone was placed on the table to charge, and this night, the sound of music did not ring in Xiao Mozhu's ears.
"It's quiet."
Listening to the "silence" from the quiet night, Xiao Mozhu stared at the ceiling and said to himself, "Do you want to ask the old man for help?"
Room 305, Building 2, Female Dormitory.
You Xiaoyun was very satisfied, today's "play" made her feel a little more understanding of Xiao Mozhu, thinking "Ah, it turns out that he also has a sister, but unfortunately she has passed away for so many years", a trace of worry also made this girl in a dilemma, the reason was another girl who was in her lower bunk.
"Does the emperor really like him too? What should I do? You Xiaoyun thought so.
The problems are numerous and varied.
When You Xiaoyun closed her eyes and couldn't sleep, the mobile phone next to Huangfu Zhen's pillow lit up, and she received a text message.
"Does the forehead hurt", from a text message from Xiao Mozhu, there is even a question mark missing at the end.
Short five words, the meaning is very simple and clear, and there are not many strokes, a total of forty-four paintings, and the emperor can really count them clearly.
is such a simple text message, but it has already made Huangfu really overjoyed, looking at the mobile phone screen and turning over twice, remembering that he had to reply to a message, then he calmed down and began to press the button of the mobile phone.
"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all!" Huangfu really replied.
"Oh, that's good," another simple text message followed.
Even Huangfu Zhen herself didn't know what the reason was, and after returning from military training, she set the text message prompt on her mobile phone to silent, as if she instinctively told her that she should do this.
