I never knew how far the road would go or what the end would look like. Looking up, the sun was shining under the skyline, but it never illuminated that place. But I knew I was going to walk it through. Someday......

Xiaoxue told her that she had just come home from vacation and came to see me and Luo Qian when she passed by Feishi. I know that although Xiaoxue lives in Huangshan City, from the geographical point of view, she will indeed pass by here, but she is on a plane, which is a bit far-fetched. But since everyone is here, I can't be left out in the cold, otherwise she should really hate me for the rest of my life.

After receiving Xiaoxue, he drove all the way to the city and called Luo Qian and Zhou Haoran respectively. Zhou Haoran couldn't leave at night, Luo Qian heard that it was Xiaoxue, and wanted to avoid it, but I hung up the phone when she couldn't make an excuse, and then drove the car directly to the company to pick her up.

At night, the three of them found a restaurant with a good reputation, and when they talked about Xiaoxue's accommodation during the meal, I definitely wouldn't accept it, so I pushed it on Luo Qian.

"What's not to do? I've been to your house, it's more than mine, so why don't I stay in a hotel if I don't go to you? I said.

Luo Qian stepped on my feet desperately under the table, but there was a helpless expression on her face: "My child, it's really inappropriate to go to my house." ”

"Your child is only 2 years old, how can he be skinned?"

"My husband is snoring while sleeping!"

"I didn't let her sleep with your husband, what's the reason?"

“……”

Xia Xiaoxue looked at me and then at Luo Qian, interrupted us and said, "I can stay in a hotel, it's okay!" ”

"No way!" Luo Qian said eagerly. But why not, there is no explanation for a long time.

Later, Xiaoxue was sent to the hotel, Luo Qian privately hated iron and complained a lot, and finally ignored me angrily.

Xiaoxue sent me WeChat at night, and the two of them said some white to transparent words, and they fell asleep chatting directly, only to wake up the next day to find that there were several WeChat messages without replying.

The biggest advantage of being a supervisor is that you don't have to ask for leave, you can just say hello to the store manager on the phone. Xiaoxue wanted to spend a day in Feishi and asked me what to do. Actually, when it comes to playing, I'm too experienced, but time is limited, and I think the playground and the ancient Xiaoyaojin in the city may not be suitable for her. Based on my understanding of Xiaoxue, she should be happy, so I drove her to the edge of Chaohu Lake and took a ferry to Laoshan Island.

Laoshan Island is located in Chaohu Lake, one of the five major freshwater lakes in the country, with lush forests and evergreen trees in all seasons, such as green snails floating in the water.

Laoshan is surrounded by water on all sides, like a flat boat floating in the water, it is the only "oasis on the lake" of Chaohu Lake in 800 miles, and it is also the first scenic spot of Chaohu Lake.

Legend has it that when "Nest State" was trapped, in order to save her neighbors, Jiao Mama was swallowed by the flood and turned into a mountain, which was called "Lao Mountain" by later generations

Facing the rising sun, Xiaoxue and I sat on the bow of the boat to feel the coolness of the wind, and the water waves hit the dots of water foam and filled the sun, giving people a dreamlike illusion.

Looking at the island getting closer and closer, I said to Xiaoxue: "When I was a child, I heard adults say that there used to be a prosperous city under Chaohu Lake, but then the sky flooded and flooded the city. The houses and streets are all sunk to the bottom of the lake, and when you go out to fish on a full moon night, you can see the blue bricks and green tiles under the water shining on the water, as if the boat you are riding is floating on the clouds, and the bustling street market below you is crowded, and the smoke lingers......

"Wow!" Xia Xiaoxue listened attentively, and asked after her: "You grew up here, have you ever taken a boat to see it at night?" Is there really a city underwater? ”

"Of course it's fake!" I laughed and said, "The older generation made it up!" In the past, when I went out to fish, I had to chop the head of the chicken and burn the yellow paper, wasn't it all superstition? ”

Xia Xiaoxue leaned against her chin a little daze and said, "No wind and no waves!" The more myths and legends seem to catch the wind, the more mysterious the past is unknown. ”

Before going to the island, the master asked us if we wanted to go around the island, and we needed to charge an additional 150 yuan. I didn't think it was necessary, so I pulled the summer snow and landed on the island. Take a walk around the island and you'll find plenty of farm stays and specialty snack bars. Although the overall size of the island is small, the unique scenery is intoxicating, facing the lake breeze as if you are standing on the edge of the sea, and then you can see the monstrous waves......

We chose to take a speedboat on the outlying islands, which is 15 yuan more expensive than a cruise ship, but it is worth the money, the feeling of breaking the wind and waves is exciting and enjoyable, as if taking a rocket that goes straight to the sky, and both sides are the white clouds and colorful clouds that have been scratched.

After leaving Laoshan Mountain, I took Xiaoxue to the wetland park for a turn, the scenery there is also very beautiful, and finally I played on the beach by the lake, and sat down to chat on the side of the road around the lake in the evening. This day is very beautiful, although there is no Lingshan kind of grand scenic spot magnificent, but the quiet beauty is beautiful and luxurious, but also can give people a touch of the soul.

I wanted to take Xiaoxue to the hotel in the evening, but it was already late after eating, and considering that I would have to get up early the next day to take her to the airport, I broke the taboo and let her stay at my house.

In fact, I refused to take her in last night because I was afraid that Luo Qian would make irresponsible remarks, but today's decision was like an affair between two little lovers, discussing not to let her know.

After washing up at night, they went back to their rooms, closed the door, and everything was carried out in an orderly arrangement, without any carelessness.

Actually, it is impossible to say that I have no evil thoughts at all! After all, I am an old man who has lived alone for many years, and I am physically healthy. But reason tells me that since I can't give others a future, I can't provoke them, which is responsible for her and myself.

Xiaoxue still has a little insomnia at night and comes to my room to chat with me. At this time, when I saw the pictures hanging all over the wall, my jaw was about to dislocate.

"Brother Lu, she is the person you said in your heart, right?" She asked.

I didn't know how to explain it, so I nodded and shook my head.

"She is my ex-girlfriend, her name is Zhao Qian, and she is married to someone else now, haha!"

Xiaoxue looked at me with a pair of big innocent eyes, and then at the photos.

"You can't forget her?"

"Not exactly," I explained to her as best I could, "that we bought the house together, and her picture has the right to hang here." ”

"Don't you feel awkward?" Xia Xiaoxue asked.

"Why be awkward?"

I thought it was natural, but if I had to tear them all down, I wouldn't feel comfortable.

"Brother Lu, I think it's a little strange for you to be like this." Xia Xiaoxue walked around the photo wall, twisting her fingers as she ran her fingers over the photo frame.

"Brother Lu, your ex-girlfriend, do you know that you still have these photos?"

"Of course! She often comes to my house. I said.

"Now? After getting married? Xia Xiaoxue felt incredible.

I shrugged my shoulders: "I came here last night and bought me lychees." ”

"Where are the lychees sold this season!" Xia Xiaoxue felt more and more outrageous, smiled, and asked me again: "Then is she the person you said in your heart?" ”

I scratched my scalp and was a little embarrassed: "The person in my heart is now in Sichuan, her name is Hu Shanshan, and she is a teacher." ”

"Oh!" Xia Xiaoxue nodded clearly, and later said some strange things before walking out of the room.

Talking about Hu Shanshan, I suddenly began to think about her again. Facing the bright stars outside the window, facing the vast galaxy and the boundless universe, my thoughts began to float, collide, and dominate. And what is Hu Shanshan doing now, 1,600 kilometers away? What was her dream home like?

Missing, the cat that never sleeps;

Missing is a cocoon that does not eat or drink;

Missing is a flame that cannot be extinguished even if it is poured out of Chaohu Lake......
