Chapter 2 Aliens are in front of your store
Tong Xiaolai was on the border of hell, as if he saw the purgatory roses they watered with loneliness, cold, dark, and gorgeous......
Suddenly, Tong Xiaolai was surrounded by fear. He could never forget that gaze again.
Cold sweat ran through his clothes, sending chills down his spine......
Wow!
Tong Xiaolai turned around and looked behind him. There was nothing behind him, but he couldn't help but look behind him.
"Blue ...... Blue-violet beams...... Blood...... blood-red pupils...... Is that still human? ”
And no matter what it is, it's definitely not a good thing, and if you don't want to die, it's better to go first.
In the process of choosing an escape route, Tong Xiaolai took a look at the convenience store next to him, and saw that it was brightly lit and there were many figures, so he hurriedly ran inside.
However, in the rush to retreat, I tripped over something, and then stuck in the curtain of the door and rushed into the convenience store, only to see the bicycles side by side behind him fall.
Tong Xiaolai covered the huge pain from scratching on his feet, and limped in.
After Tong Xiaolai jumped in, he looked up and saw the boss of the cashier.
The boss noticed that someone was coming, and the movement was not small, so he looked up and saw at a glance that it was Tong Xiaolai, and he still looked frizzy.
After collecting the money, the shopkeeper beckoned to Tong Xiaolai and motioned for him to come over.
After Tong Xiaolai saw the gesture, he limped and passed with a messy expression.
The shopkeeper greeted warmly: "Come on, let me see who this is?" Isn't this our unconventional child? Hahaha, it's been a long time since you've been in my store.
"What, are there any instructions for coming here today? Oops, what's going on with your foot, is it a fight with someone or a rush, why is it hanging the lottery? ”
It's still normal in the store, Tong Xiaolai moved a stool by himself, and he was not polite, and sat down next to him.
Tong Xiaolai gasped: "Don't mention it, I met an alien on the way to your store just now." It wanted to talk to me, but for some reason it hid, and I guess it was shy.
"And you see my foot, it's because it got it." Tong Xiaolai lifted the pig's trotters and rolled up his trouser legs to show him, they were all swollen. "My wound is the best evidence, and I suspect that he is trying to do something wrong with me."
"Tong Xiaolai, I said that you have been really busy lately, and you have met aliens, I really envy you young people, who have endless energy every day." The shopkeeper said.
Tong Xiaolai gave him a roll of the eyes and let him understand for himself. He didn't believe it.
Tong Xiaolai stretched out his hand, touched it back, and familiarly touched a bottle of soda from the shelf, opened it with a "pop", and then drank it with a clatter.
"Ahh
While drinking, he said: "What I said is true, you see my injury, the blood is so bad that you can mop the floor, don't you believe it?" ”
"Tong Xiaolai, don't say it, I've lived most of my life, and I haven't seen anything, but I haven't seen aliens. You said you met it, okay, where is it?
"You let it out, so that I can open my eyes, and I'll invite it to tea, oh no, it can drink whatever it wants, as long as you invite it out." The shopkeeper spoke, and then looked at Tong Xiaolai quietly.
Tong Xiaolai looked at him with a confused look, then pointed to the door with a soda point, and said in a matter-of-fact manner: "Don't believe it, it's on the tree at your door." ”
"Hey, I said Tong Xiaolai!" The shopkeeper is not happy to say this, why don't you say it, but on the tree in front of him, do you dare to pull it a little more? It's not like that.
"How do you know it's an alien?" The shopkeeper asked.
"Hmm...... Guess. ”
Tong Xiaolai did see its eyes, which were strange and scary.
"Then why don't you run? Aren't you afraid that it will kill you or take you as a pet? ”
"My leg is lame and I can't run." Tong Xiaolai has given up struggling. If he was an alien, he wouldn't be able to run.
"At the door of your store, it can't be you who let it out, right?" Tong Xiaolai said.
"I said Tong Xiaolai!" It's too much to say that, to say that there are aliens in front of his store, or he released them, it's really worth him, provided that he also has the ability to do it.
"You said there are aliens in front of my store, why don't you say that now except for those in our store, all the people outside are aliens?"
"Hmmm......"
Tong Xiaolai thought for a while, he felt that the owner of this shop could be, why didn't he think of it, and said: "I think it makes sense, I don't rule out this possibility." ”
"Tong Xiaolai, have you watched too many ghost movies?" The shopkeeper said coldly.
"What does this have to do with ghost movies?"
I saw the shopkeeper say coldly: "Because, ghosts are actually aliens." ”
"Hehe, hehe." Tong Xiaolai sneered, "Your joke is not cold at all, I won't give you money for this soda." ”
"Take it, take it, drink more when you have time, no need to give money."
"It's a good feeling, thank you, boss!" Tong Xiaolai raised the soda and his thermos to clink glasses, and the two drank in respect.
"Tong Xiaolai, you are going to start school tomorrow, why do you have time to come to my store tonight?"
Speaking of this, Tong Xiaolai smiled bitterly: "Boss, don't say it, I have a headache when it comes to the start of school, not to mention that there is still a semester to take the college entrance examination, and what opening ceremony will I attend tomorrow, when I think of this, my head is like a blow-up, it hurts!" ”
"Hahaha......" the shopkeeper laughed happily.
Tong Xiaolai thought that pouring out the bitter water in his stomach could be exchanged for a few words of comfort, but he didn't expect the boss to laugh honestly.
The reason why the shopkeeper laughed was because he knew that Tong Xiaolai was happy at this time, because he was still young and had youth, so he also had everything, including time, love, and an ignorant beginning.
This is the best time of life, and troubles are also happy.
There is nothing more fascinating than the color of youth, and nothing is more worthy of memorial than the scars of youth.
Because he was also young, he was arrogant, proud and indulgent, and he also had an unforgettable love.
He saw the shadow of himself in Tong Xiaolai, and he was as madly obsessed with her as he was obsessed with youth, but now, the vicissitudes of time, spring and autumn come, time has taken away everything, and it has sealed everything......
In the convenience store, Tong Xiaolai and the store owner are like old friends who haven't seen each other for many years, chatting while drinking, and unconsciously chatting.
After the small talk, Tong Xiaolai was still thinking, why did he come, why was he here? He vaguely felt as if he had forgotten something.
What is it? He's still thinking about it.
Seeing him like this, the shopkeeper consciously took a bottle of soy sauce from the shelf, put it in front of him, and said, "It's just that I see that you came to my store at this time, I'm afraid you came to make soy sauce." ”
"Tut-tut." Tong Xiaolai looked at the soy sauce in front of him and sighed again and again, "If it's really a brother for more than ten years, I have an iron-like relationship, and I didn't say anything, so I knew that I was here to make soy sauce." ”
"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry tonight, and the old lady at home still has to cook, so I won't accompany you." Tong Xiaolai lifted the soy sauce and said respectfully, "Boss, thank you, goodbye!" ”
As everyone knows, if he waits for his soy sauce to come back, all the dishes at home will be fried.
But anyway, he brought the soy sauce back, and he didn't care if he didn't fry the pan.
After saying goodbye to the shopkeeper, Tong Xiaolai came to the door, looked to the side, and saw the bicycles that had fallen side by side, and the cars were messy and fell to the ground.
Tong Xiaolai looked at the car and couldn't help but be dissatisfied with the shop owner: "Whose unlucky child is this, who won't move the bicycle if he knocks it down?" ”
"Forget it, it's all my own brothers, it's just a gesture, brothers don't have to say thank you!" For the sake of the shopkeeper, Tong Xiaolai moved the cars one by one and arranged them neatly.
"Hmm." After Tong Xiaolai finished moving the bicycle, he crossed his waist with his hands and looked quite satisfied.
Tong Xiaolai clapped his hands, picked up the soy sauce, and turned to leave.
However, just as Tong Xiaolai turned around gorgeously, "bang", it felt as if the soy sauce had touched something. But whatever, the soy sauce is fine.
Tong Xiaolai carried the soy sauce and walked away while being so small. After he left, the bicycle placed behind him fell side by side.
However, these are not important, the important store brother has been guarding this store for so many years, and the unknown past is also sad.
Although he is middle-aged, he also has youth, and he also has a past.
Speaking of the past of this shopkeeper, Tong Xiaolai sighed while walking.
Tong Xiaolai didn't expect that this shopkeeper has not changed at all over the years, his honest and lovely personality and amiable personality are still the same as before, but his face is getting older, and the fleeting ruthlessness has carved wrinkles of time on his face.
After all these years, he's still in the same place. He was still as affectionate as ever, waiting as always......
Tong Xiaolai thought to himself, he still couldn't forget that person. Her influence on him was so deep. Never forget.
In fact, the first impression of this shopkeeper still goes back to thirteen years ago. It was the year they met. Thirteen years ago, a period of past created today's shopkeeper.
Thirteen years ago, Tong Xiaolai was only five years old. He didn't quite understand it at the time.
All he remembered was that at that time, something big had happened here. Tong Xiaolai also learned about this later.
One day thirteen years ago, the shopkeeper's wife had an accident and died in a car accident at the intersection of this street.
Her departure took away the best of his entire youth. The accident caused irreparable damage to the shopkeeper for the rest of his life.
At that time, he was in great pain, and cried a lot, and washed his face with tears every day, just because of how much he loved, how much he hurt.
His life has been in darkness ever since.
So one day, he couldn't help but miss someone anymore, so he had extreme thoughts.
