Chapter 2 Descending the Mountain
I didn't say anything all night, I wanted to talk to her a lot, and talk a lot about her experience in recent years, but I don't know why, whenever I want to speak, my heart is like a knife, like a fish in my throat, and I feel that the more I know, the more uncomfortable it will become. She seemed to be accustomed to it, and she didn't think about it, and fell asleep quietly, and the way she slept was still like six or seven years ago, curled up in a ball, curled up in my arms, and the soft feeling on her body brought me infinite memories. I have imagined countless encounters with her, whether it was on a subway in Shanghai, or we passed by on a street in the middle of Shanghai, or I went to the interviewer for a job, or at our class reunion, or even at her wedding to Lao Wangγγγγγγ I've thought about countless scenarios, but I never thought it would be like this. Thinking about it, I hugged her and fell asleep unconsciously.
I woke up the next morning and found that she was still sleeping in my arms, this girl was still the same as before, so lazy, looking at her sleeping face, I couldn't help but feel a ripple in my heart, shocked and sad, surprised that the lively and lovely little girlfriend was still in my nostalgia, sad is that as before, she can only belong to me for a short time. I gently pulled my arm from under her neck, walked to the window, and opened the curtains, revealing a snow-white out. It's been a long time since it's snowed so much, and this year has been no ordinary. When I first returned home from Shanghai, I often heard from the older generation that there was always thunder at the beginning of winter this year, and thunder in winter was not a good thing. Sure enough, in the year of Gengzi this year, there was a big epidemic in Chudi, and the whole country began to lock down the city, and the people began to close their doors.
Is it snowing outside? Is it big? What time is it? Xiao Ling woke up, rubbed his eyes, yawned, and asked lazily.
Well, it's pretty big, it's past ten o'clock.
Yes? So how do I get home?
If you don't go back, stay here, it just so happens that my family lacks daughters-in-law.
Cut, I'm not rare.
Hurry up and get up, go and see if there is a car into the city in a while, and you can return to Fengjie from Wanzhou City. With that, I went out to wash up.
When I came back from washing, I saw that she had already dressed, and she was still as fresh and moving as when she came.
Have breakfast?
I didn't eat it.
I'll go down first and see if there's anyone in my house, I'll send you a message if there's no one, you're coming down.
Well.
I opened the door, changed my shoes, and went downstairs, and found that the house was empty, and there was only one person in the pharmacy outside lazily playing with his mobile phone.
After a while, she came down and walked up to me, habitually close to me, and the aunt from the pharmacy glanced at me, wanting to ask something, but in the end she didn't ask. I'm also worried that they will find out, after all, in their eyes, I am a veritable old bachelor, I am almost thirty years old and have no object, and the sudden appearance of a woman will definitely make news. Thinking of this, I unconsciously took a step back and said, "Don't get so close, it's not good." She blinked, acquiescing. I took her to the bus stop, the word suspension on it was impressive, and I called a few black car drivers, all of whom said that the snow is too thick now, I can't get out, I can't go down the mountain, if I have to go to the city, I can only go down the mountain first, and then go to the town below the mountain to see if there are any cars, but the reason for the current epidemic, 90% of them are not cars. When I informed Xiao Ling of the situation, there was no change in her calm face, and then she said: You tell me the way down the mountain, and I will figure it out by myself when I go down.
How can this work? Such a big snow, you alone, it is definitely not safe, in case something happens, I can't afford it, if you have to go, I will send you down the mountain, this is more than ten kilometers of mountain road, it will take at least half a day to go down the mountain, and there is such a big snow, are you sure?
Well, I have important things to do today, so I have to go back.
Oh, is there still a covenant?
Whatever you want, I'm leaving. As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
I also realized that I had just said the wrong thing, so I hurried to follow.
I took her out of the town and walked down the winding road for about an hour, and she looked at the time and said, is there a path? If you go down the mountain directly, follow the road, it's too round.
Yes, it's just that the snow is so thick that it's definitely not safe.
If it's not safe, I have to go, and I have to go into the city today.
I know that I can't be stronger than her, and since we've been together, I've never been able to win anything, except for the overlord on the bed. I took her out of the winding mountain road, directly to the path, the road because no one has walked, it is full of snow, unlike the road, the government has sprinkled salt on it, so the snow is not so thick, and the walk is quite smooth, not to mention that the road has been repaired in recent years, and no one has walked on the path, which can be described as overgrown with weeds, I really don't know what will be under the thick snow. In several difficult places, I was holding her sideways and slowly moving down. Suddenly, at a relatively steep staircase, she did not step on a steady foot, fell hard, slid down several meters on the snow, if it were not for a big stone in front of her, she probably fell off the cliff, I hurriedly helped her up, to see if there was any injury, fortunately the body is not serious, but the foot is a little broken, and it is definitely impossible to walk. Seeing this, I was heartbroken and angry, so I simply sat next to her and stopped talking.
Why? Distressed? She asked painlessly.
Let's go back, don't go. I managed to control my emotions.
No, I'm going back. She looked down and sighed.
You're on your feet now, and you can't go.
You carry me.
Are you crazy?
I'm not crazy, I'm serious.
What are you for, why do you have to go back, and I'll give you as much as you want next. I yelled at her, I couldn't control my emotions anymore.
You don't understand, just like you can never understand, when I went to Sichuan and came back, you changed your mind about me, you only had animal desires for me, no feelings, but I still chose to be with you, knowing that every time I go out with you, I will still go out. She still said lightly.
I was instantly speechless, and my anger was dissipated.
Let's rest, I'll carry you down the mountain. I said with a sigh.
After resting for about fifteen minutes, I carried her on my back, although she was very light, more than eighty pounds, but I was still a little tired after not exercising for a long time, not to mention that it was still in the mountain road. In this way, I carried her on my back for a while, and the whole process was also half an hour of walking, with a ten-minute break. After about two hours, I reached the bottom of the mountain, the terrain began to flatten out, and there was only half an hour left before the station, and my pace slowed down, I don't know why, for a few moments, I really enjoyed the feeling, it was a feeling that I had not felt in a long time, she was lying on my back, and I could clearly hear her breathing. It's like when we were in college, holding hands, walking by the lake in the warm sun.
What do you think, why do you walk so slowly, deliberately, little brother. She whispered in my ear.
The sound made me feel crispy, and I just wanted to go back and kiss her, but I didn't, and I don't know why I didn't.
After about forty minutes, I carried her to the station, saying that it was a station, but rather a broken shop, and that there was a sign hanging at the door that read: Yifeng - Fengjie. When did Yifeng have a car to Fengjie, where two eight poles can't be hit, in a poor and remote place, there is actually a shuttle. So I went up to the shop owner and asked: When is this car? The boss said: It has just opened this year, one flight a day, mainly to send those who come to travel, come to enjoy the cool in summer, and come to enjoy the snow in winter. It was sent out at 8 a.m. and returned to Bongjie at 3 p.m. Young man, this is your girlfriend, today's children are really good at showing affection, and they are all on their backs. Speaking of which, I realized that I had arrived at the place, and I was still carrying her. I glanced back, and even my little face flushed a little. "Boss, don't be joking, this is my sister, I fell and I carried her down." I responded to the boss and put Xiaoling down. Looking at the time, it was still early, it was only two o'clock, and the shuttle bus stopped there.
