Volume 1 Memoirs Chapter 16 Summer at the age of 17
The days that followed returned to normal, and I got closer and closer to Cheng Zhi, but became more and more estranged from Wang Xin. Secretly, Yu Qian and I are getting closer and closer, almost to the point of having nothing to talk about. Even the pattern behind my back, I mentioned it to her.
Unfortunately, she wasn't interested in what was on me, she just laughed it off. On the contrary, she liked the life in Guangxi and the adventures in the cave that I talked about.
But it wasn't until I graduated from elementary school that I realized that the reason why she liked it was because she listened to the story entirely at that time. She just loves these bizarre types of stories. This is what she told me later, and she took the trouble to say goodbye to me.
I didn't think anything of it at the time, and I still had a lively correspondence with her. However, after graduating from elementary school, she went to the city to attend a private aristocratic junior high school, and although I was admitted to that school, I stayed at the junior high school in my village because of my family's financial conditions.
Speaking of which, I have to mention Wang Xin and the little fat man again. Wang Xin was not admitted to the aristocratic school in the city as he wished, and was also left in the village school, which was the opposite of my situation. As for the little fat man who ranked first, he naturally went to the city with Yu Qian.
In the first half of the first year of junior high school, Yu Qian and I exchanged letters frequently, but in the second half of the year, it was basically once a week, and in the end, I didn't even correspond again. But on vacation, sometimes I can still see her on the street, and she smiles at me from afar, and then turns to leave.
This smile was the last time I saw her, and since then, there has been no contact.
In the three years of junior high school, I lived a very dull life. Wang Xin and I and Cheng Zhi are in the same class, Wang Xin was alienated from me in elementary school, so I didn't have much contact in junior high school, but I and Cheng Zhi have been playing well. But when encountering any fights or the like, Wang Xin is still very righteous with us.
Although junior high school is very boring, in the past three years, in addition to Wang Xin, Cheng Zhi and I have had a crush on girls. Speaking of which, I'm also a flower heart, and I actually changed two crushes in a row in the second and third years of junior high school.
But as you can imagine, I didn't catch any of them. On the other hand, Cheng Zhi, this guy actually grabbed the heart of the girl he had a crush on, and held hands until graduation, and even went to the town's vocational school.
At the age of 16, after graduating from junior high school, he went to the nearest technical school in the town. This school is an affiliated school of the Arsenal, and it is said that it is specially designed to train fresh blood for the Arsenal. But it wasn't until later that I found out that it was a complete gimmick and a fake. At that time, the arsenal was a replacement system, and the father retreated from the son, so how could there be a place for you?
But we still studied at that school for three years, and these three years can be said to be the most trance-like three years of my life.
I was admitted to a key high school in the city, but there were two reasons why I didn't go there. One is the family conditions, my parents' income is very poor, and when I was in junior high school, I even had two semesters of arrears to go to school, and I was urged by the teacher every day, so that I didn't dare to go to school for a few days.
The second reason is my own, I am so close to Cheng Zhi that I have made a mistake in my thinking, thinking that reading is not as good as a craft, and learning a craft will eat until I am old, so I went to vocational school.
To be honest, I regretted it later, with my level, it would not be a matter at all to take the exam in the future, and studying in this vocational school is a complete waste of life.
Of course, this is my personal opinion. Because of my three-year vocational school career, I was completely led astray.
I was short until I graduated from junior high school, half a head shorter than Chengzhi. But when I arrived at vocational school, I grew up as fast as if I had taken hormones. In just half a semester, I jumped to 1.7 meters, becoming the second tallest person in the class.
So I was honored to be left in the back row of the classroom, and the area in the last row is the famous school scumbag area. No matter how good your conditions are, no matter how good your ability is, you are also close to ink when you come here.
I spent half a semester and went from being a top student to a scumbag, and I couldn't believe it.
In the future, I would surf the Internet all night and sleep in class. Molerating girls and getting into fights everywhere. There are four seats in the back row, three people, and of course they have become the boss of the class. And I got close to Cheng Zhi, and the next year I pulled him into the trio and formed a foursome.
In the second year, Chengzhi became obsessed with fishing. In order to fish, this thing coaxed me and took my food money to buy fishing gear. You must know that my food fee is my Internet fee, and how can I access the Internet without Internet fee? So I had to follow him to go fishing.
Fortunately, this product often catches some big fish, takes it to a restaurant near the school, and eats it, which can be regarded as paying for my food expenses.
This restaurant is a four-person relationship of us, so it costs very little or no money to eat here. Cheng Zhi often brought fish to eat, and when it came to all, our food at that time was quite good.
It was the summer of 17 years old, and during the summer vacation, the four of us all went to the city to work for the summer vacation, and went to the disinfection tableware factory to deliver tableware with the car.
Speaking of this factory, after having the four of us, it has simply changed. In those two months, their sales tripled.
In fact, it's no wonder, who told the four of us to love to play and make work fun? So I did it very fast, so much so that when I had time, I went to various restaurants to flirt with the waiter girl who also worked as a summer worker. This back and forth, their boss is familiar with it, and by the way, they did business with this tableware factory and pulled orders.
It's a pity that the owner of the cutlery factory is an iron rooster, and he didn't give us half a dime commission when he pulled an order. But it doesn't matter, we come to work with fun.
The dishwashing and disinfection in their factory is also a summer worker from a nearby school, a student girl. Most of the reason the four of us are doing so well is because of them.
During that time, we often invited them to the city to sing and eat skewers after work, and even took them to the temple on the mountain one night.
As a result, the nun inside was beaten out with a broom, saying that we disturbed the pure land of Buddhism in the middle of the night and behaved inappropriately.
It's no wonder that the Buddha Gate Forbidden Land is a place where men and women come around? It's too disrespectful to the Buddha and his old man.
After getting acquainted with them, some of our hobbies gradually became known to each other. Actually, I don't seem to have any special hobbies. Speaking of surfing the Internet, this thing can be done or not, there is no special addiction. When it comes to fishing, it's just to accompany Chengzhi. When it comes to reading books, it's to find clues to the patterns behind them.
So I'm a special case among us.
On that day, there was a power outage in the factory and a holiday, so we decided to take our friends to play. Because they are usually together, even the dormitory they live in is in the same house, and they have never been separated at all. So it's finally a holiday, two by two, one pair, the act of privacy, everyone understands.
So I was also going to take the 19-year-old lady who was two years older than me home, my family was empty, at this time my father went to the construction site, and my mother went to the deputy. So take her back, everyone understands.
However, Cheng Zhi, the bastard, stirred up the water, and this thing dragged his little girlfriend to ask us to go fishing together, which made me angry.
But when her little girlfriend told me the location, I was on the hook and full of interest.
I hadn't been to the place she was talking about, and I hadn't heard of it, it was on the other side of the city. There's a village there, and it's quite large. But because it's so big, there's no one in some places in the depths.
And it was this place, which was originally a flat meadow, and there was not even farmland, that actually arched a mountain peak that was not too high. Alone, it looks like a tower. And at the foot of this small peak, there is a small pond with a lot of fish in it. Cheng Zhi just wants to go fishing in this pool.
But if that's all there is to it, I'm not interested in it. But she told me that the mountain was called the Evil Grave by the locals. It is precisely because of this name that almost no one goes to that area.
She actually hinted at me when she said this, because Cheng Zhi knew that I was more interested in these things, and the only thing I was interested in, so I would be tempted to tell me the name of the place. And that place is uninhabited, it is still a grass that can be used as a bed, and it is simply satisfying to take a young lady there.
The young lady didn't object, and she was eager to try, and I was stunned. I was bold, I didn't expect there to be more daring than me.
In fact, this is also Chengzhi's idea, one satisfies his heart of fishing, two takes care of me, and three can try the passionate years in the wild, why not?
We set off at 8 a.m., took the bus halfway through, and then went all the way through the village.
This place was told to her by Cheng Zhi's little girlfriend's cousin that they had come to catch fish when they were children, but they were beaten up by their elders, so they never came in again.
And this time she suddenly said that it was because she talked about things when she was a child when she was chatting with Cheng Zhi, and when she said this, she was caught by Cheng Zhi and brought us over. She is obedient to Chengzhi, and it is possible for her to give her life.
This kind of solid relationship has been cultivated since junior high school, and I can't compare with this young lady at all.
At about 11:40 a.m., when we walked to the point where our eyes were dizzy and our legs were numb, we turned a large camphor tree, and in a vast meadow, we finally saw a lonely small mountain in the middle of the meadow.
It was really like a small tower, well-behaved, standing proudly on the ground.
As I got closer, I realized that it was more like a mound, because on the other side of it, there was a small peak on its own. The whole looks like a tombstone.
There is indeed a circle of pools under the small peak, the water is clear to the bottom, and there are really many fish.
Cheng Zhi was excited when he saw the water, and hurriedly threw off the posture and was about to fish. And I was so excited that I pulled up my trouser leg and was about to go into the water.
But Cheng Zhi's little girlfriend grabbed me and didn't let me go into the water, saying that the water was so deep that it would drown me if I went down.
What kind of joke is this? Such clear water, I can see the bottom at a glance, it is not deep, at most up to the knees, how can it drown me?
Seeing that I didn't believe it, Cheng Zhi's little girlfriend ran to the side angrily and made a small report to Cheng Zhi. What's the joke about that? Can Cheng Zhi control me? This young lady around me can't control me, can he do it?
When Cheng Zhi stopped me, one of my legs was already wet. When he spoke, I went down with both feet. While his voice was still in my ears, my hand holding the edge was released.
"Poof", I finally realized that Cheng Zhi's little girlfriend didn't lie to me at all, this water is really deep. I sank all at once, overwatered.
It doesn't look deep, but it's actually so deep, how powerful is this refraction? I took two sips of water and quickly took a picture of the water floating. With my height of 1.72 meters at that time, after sinking the whole thing, I didn't even touch the bottom of the pool, how deep is this pool water?
When I came up, I didn't feel good because the water was so cold that I couldn't stand it at all. It's completely unreasonable that I can feel a bone headache in these dog days.
If someone else fell into the water, after feeling the temperature of the water, they must have fled in fright. But I'm not like that, I'm excited.
Doesn't this unusual temperature mean that this place is indeed extraordinary? Isn't that what I like? Isn't that the only obvious interest I have?
This ghost interest, I'm afraid it was buried in the cave in Guangxi at that time, and that experience is unique. And I also won the heart of my first friend of the opposite sex with that experience, which is very fulfilling.
And speaking of which, the young lady who is following me now is also attracted by my adventure story. So, unconsciously, I regarded this kind of thing as a hobby and as a means of picking up girls.
After all, stories don't just come by hand, they have to be experienced.
