"Okay, I have a chance to ask you for advice." Graphite replied casually.

"What do you ask for advice or not, let's communicate together, the three stinkers have beaten Zhuge Liang, isn't the old saying true." The fat man laughed.

"Tick ......"

Graphite's mobile phone rang with a WeChat prompt.

He opened his phone and looked at it, and was a little surprised, it was a message from Luo Li, who had just added.

"Thank you today." A handshake emoji was added to the back.

Seeing this information, Graphite's heart suddenly appeared Luo Li's voice and smile, innocent and innocent.

Luo Li's WeChat avatar is an anime girl.,It looks cute and innocent.,The name next to the avatar is Lolita.,You can see that this is a girl with an anime complex.。 Graphite smiled slightly and replied: "You're welcome." also added a handshake expression, thought for a while and continued to post: "How is it now?" Where has it been? ”

Luo Li quickly sent a photo of the scene, looking at the photo is still on the mountain road, but it should be almost to the village, it is estimated that this will be a halfway to sit down and rest.

Then, Luo Li sent another message: "I feel okay, I'm resting now, it should be almost there, what about you?" Behind it was a smiling expression, and Graphite could imagine her smiling with her phone at the moment.

Graphite groaned for a while, then raised his mobile phone to take a photo of the scene, and then shared the photo with Luo Li, "We have arrived at our destination, this is a live photo." ”

After he finished sending the message, he put down his phone and looked into the distance, letting out a long breath, as if he had let go of some heavy block in his heart.

"It's the girl, brother." The fat man, leaning on the pillar opposite, asked ambiguously.

"Yes, she's still on her way, and she said thank you." Graphite replied briefly, trying to hide the inexplicable emotions in his heart.

"Actually, that girl is really good."

"There are so many nice girls." Graphite laughed.

"But there aren't many opportunities to meet them."

"I said, let's discuss whether it's inappropriate for people here......" Graphite said lightly.

"Okay. I don't think you're a little bit of a mental cleanliness. The fat man lit another cigarette and threw one over by the way, "Brother, how old are you?" He exhaled a puff of his cigarette and asked again.

"I'm twenty-seven. What about you? Graphite asked rhetorically.

"Just a year older than you. Hey, dude. The fat man laughed exaggeratedly.

"Dido"

It should be Luo Li's reply message, but Graphite didn't pick it up right away, he still breathed a smoke ring leisurely.

"Why don't you reply to messages?" The fat man continued to tease.

Graphite didn't respond to him, just picked up his phone and glanced at it, Luo Li: "We continue to set off now, the scenery is so beautiful, it's a pity." Behind it was a crying expression. A cute and coquettish Luo Li appeared in Graphite's mind, and his heart beat inexplicably.

Graphite thought about it for a while, and then returned: "Be careful on the road, I'll send you a few more pictures later." ”

"Thank you." A happy expression was added to the end.

Before divorcing Yu Lin, graphite rarely chatted with other girls on WeChat, and even if he did, he usually said something transactional, which was a strange and fresh experience for him.

……

Graphite spat out the last puff of his cigarette, then tossed the cigarette butt to the ground and stomped it out with his foot.

Shouldn't I quit smoking? A thought popped into his mind.

The nicotine produced by tobacco will hardly cause any harm to his body, there is no doubt about this, he smokes purely because of the addiction and habit, which is the evil result of long-term smoking, he has tried to quit smoking before, and the discomfort caused by physiological withdrawal is easy to get through, but the psychological dependence is not easy to eliminate.

He wondered why he wanted to quit smoking for some reason.

He thought of the Luo Li he had just met, that beautiful and youthful face, but it had been less than a few hours in the past, and now it was a little blurry, and that face seemed to have some Yu Lin's shadow, and he shook his head slightly, trying to distinguish these two completely different faces.

Can't you forget the past, can't you forget her?

Maybe everyone's past is like smoke, if there is nothing, it is difficult to quit, is it just like this to carry this heavy burden for a lifetime?

Graphite opened the mineral water and took a sip, walked out of the corridor, his eyes fell on the calm lake not far away, the lake is like a mirror, reflecting all the images in it, forming the opposite two worlds, if you stare at it for a long time, even a little trance, can't tell which is true and which is false.

After a long time, Graphite withdrew his gaze and forced himself to return to reality.

He shouted to the fat man who was still lazy, "Chen Bin, don't come out for a walk, haven't you rested enough?" ”

"It's ...... coming," the fat man replied lazily, got up and walked out.

The two walked along the shore of the lake, and the three figures by the lake not far away were posing for various pictures, seemingly enjoying themselves.

Graphite suddenly remembered what he had promised Luo Li, so he used his mobile phone to start looking around for various compositions, framing the scenery that he thought was good. He participated in the school's art interest group in high school, and insisted on going to the school's art group to practice sketching every day after school.

In his composition, there must be something that stands out in particular, the center that people will be attracted to at a glance, such as the one he is shooting now, the foreground is two fallen leaves on a dead branch, and the background is the lake and green mountains in the distance, which have been blurred with depth of field, highlighting the dead branches and fallen leaves.

He chose about five photos that could include the scenery and characteristics of the neighborhood, and he quickly sent them to Luo Li.

"Brother, you're attentive enough." The fat man watched the graphite patting around, but it turned out to be to send WeChat to the little girl, and he teased him on the side.

"The gentleman has the beauty of an adult, and she said that she regretted giving up halfway, so I sent her a few." Graphite didn't know why it was explained, but he explained it anyway. He was also confused by the fat man's banter several times, is he really any different from Luo Li?

The fat man looked at the graphite with suspicion, and obviously had great doubts about the graphite's explanation.

Graphite glanced at the three of them and said, "Let's go, let's walk back slowly, don't be too late." ”

The two of them slowly walked towards Lan Keer and Yunmo.

"How about we take a group photo?" It was Lan Keer, who was the most lively, who spoke, and when she saw Graphite and the fat man coming over, she waved vigorously and said loudly.

Graphite smiled and said, "I'll help the four of you shoot, you can see where it is suitable." ”

"It's a nuisance." The fat man muttered, but walked up to his position as his cousin had suggested.

"Yay." Lan Keer gestured exaggeratedly.

"It's all smiling, I filmed it."

When Graphite finished filming for the four of them, he was about to return the phone to Lan Keer, but Lan Keer grabbed his sleeve and shouted: "Come, Brother Shi, let's take a group photo too." After speaking, he shouted at the fat man again: "Cousin, help us take a group photo, hurry up, hurry up." She giggled as she spoke, without the slightest hesitation.

The fat man was stunned for a moment, glanced at Graphite, and Graphite happened to look at him as well, Graphite shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and smiled slightly bitterly, as if to say, "It's none of my business." ”

The fat man glanced at graphite, and reluctantly took Lan Keer's mobile phone, "Stand well, stand well, don't blame me if you can't shoot well." ”

Graphite and Lan Ke'er stood by the lake, with the lake and green mountains as the background, he stood straight with his hands and feet in a serious manner, but unexpectedly, Lan Ke'er grabbed his arm, tilted his head slightly to his shoulder, and raised his hand to compare victory.

"Yay!"

Graphite could already slightly smell the smell of perfume on Lan Keer's body, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed in his heart, and his originally natural and generous smile also became a little crying and laughing, his eyes inadvertently swept to Yun Mo, but found that she was looking at him, and the two of them touched in the air, and Yun Mo immediately moved his gaze elsewhere, as if he was careless.

"Almost, let's walk back slowly." Graphite said to everyone after taking pictures.

A few people naturally have no opinion, outdoor hiking is no longer about the destination, but about the hike itself.

After a little tidying up, everyone put back on their backpacks and set out on the way home.

……

When I returned to the old house of graphite, it was already dark.

Everyone felt a little exhausted after a day of running, only the monster graphite was different from others, and for him now, climbing the mountain for a day seemed to be no different from going to the park for a walk.

After dinner, Graphite went to sit under the ginkgo tree as usual.

After going home, he has been busy and has no time to look at his phone, so he took out his mobile phone when he had free time, and found that Luo Li had already replied to himself, and it was several.

"The scenery is beautiful, I found that your photography skills are good." A cute expression.

After five minutes, another message was sent: "Are you back?" We're ready to go back to the city. ”

The last one was: "I'm in the car, thank you so much this time." A pitiful expression.

Looking at this information, Graphite's heart revealed a warmth for no reason, maybe it was just a short greeting, maybe it was just a simple affirmation, but it made him feel that he was no longer alone, and it felt good to be remembered by someone.

He smiled slightly, and began to wonder how to reply.

After a long time, he picked up his phone and replied: "I'm sorry, I'm busy making dinner when I come back, and I'm only back now, are you better?" Also, remember to apply ice and don't touch hot water, it shouldn't be a big problem. He added another smiling face.

He waited for a while, but the other party did not reply immediately.

After a while, Luo Li still didn't reply to the message, Graphite was faintly lost in his heart, he sighed slightly, decided not to do this anymore, and began to find a way to divert his thoughts.

Then, he suddenly thought of the star spirit who was still looking for mines in the mountains.
