Chapter 1: Light and Darkness

Next Chapter

The summer in Jiangcheng is scorching, the scorching sun is high, walking outdoors, there seems to be a fireball hanging overhead, and the scalp of the burning person is hot. The greenery on both sides of the road looked listless in the sunlight, and each one drooped the young leaves at the tips of the branches. In the field of vision, on the distant slope at the end of the road, motor vehicles suddenly disappeared or appeared. The air emits invisible energy in the sunlight, and fluctuations loom in the sky.

The cars roared incessantly, as if protesting against their owners for letting them work in such a scorching sun, but the owners did not respond, and the entire crowd of people silently rushed to their destinations. Mu Feng finished college in this famous furnace city, and then stayed in this city to work, such a hot day should have been indoors with a cup of herbal tea, blowing the air conditioner to escape the heat, but during the break, he received a call from a customer and asked him to rush over.

When he first joined the company, he had to brave the sun and go to the bus stop 200 meters away to squeeze the bus. On the road, Mu Feng kept chanting "the heart is calm and naturally cool", but he never saw the dryness in his heart recede. At this time, a tattered bus with a huge noise roared behind him to catch up, Mu Feng suddenly felt surrounded by a heat wave with the smell of the locomotive and mixed with dust, and he felt difficult to breathe for a while.

At this time, Mu Feng couldn't hold back the dryness in his heart anymore, the nameless anger rushed straight to his head from the abdominal cavity, and he just wanted to open the formation and scold, but he felt that the sun above his head seemed to be even hotter, so he had to stop and silently speed up his pace and walk towards the bus stop.

After several years of suffering, Mu Feng finally got on the bus, because it was the starting station, so Mu Feng could still have a front position to sit down, he sat opposite a mother and daughter, the little girl seemed to be not affected by the hot weather, still very lively. The air conditioner sends a cool breeze, from the top of the head to the whole body, it is like a clear spring flowing into the heart, and the inner dryness is washed away most of it, at this time it feels more comfortable than blowing the air conditioner indoors, which makes people feel very comfortable, Mu Feng closes his eyes and enjoys the coolness.

In this bustling and irritable city, many times Mu Feng finds that his feelings about the world have become numb, for many reasons, it may be because he receives too much information at the same time, so he can't focus on experiencing one of them, or his heart is too tired, living in the city, going out to various leisure places with friends every weekend or shopping on the pedestrian street, it seems that such a place can relax his nerves and allow his body and mind to get a better rest, but this is not the case, Mu Feng just wants to find a place with more people to fill the inexplicable loneliness and blank in his heart, it seems that a place with many people can give him a great sense of security。

But afterwards, Mu Feng felt that prosperity was the world, he had nothing, and he became more and more tired and numb. But there will always be times when he will find that it may be a small grass with crystal dewdrops, or a veil of floating clouds in the clear sky, which will suddenly attract all his attention, and then Mu Feng will be able to experience the peace and tranquility that nature has given him, and the mental fatigue will be relieved in that moment, and Mu Feng will regain his keen senses.

Mu Feng is such a feeling at this time, he hasn't rested much overnight, he has just started work, he feels that life is in a great contradiction, he is not by his parents' side, he has to pay attention to everything in life such as renting a house, plus the salary is not high, he is very poor, and his heart is extremely tired.

At this time, feeling the coolness above his head, he suddenly relaxed, and felt extremely comfortable both physically and mentally. Slowly, he forgot everything he had to do, and was in a state of thoughtlessness, but his mind was very clear, and he seemed to hear the sound of his heartbeat in his ears, and seemed to feel the blood flowing slowly in his veins, and the slight tremor caused by the car starting······

I don't know how long it took for his mind to return to the real world. Suddenly, he felt something unusual, his eyes were closed, he couldn't see anything, but his ears couldn't hear any sound. "What's going on?" he suddenly opened his eyes, and an incredible scene came into view: the world suddenly stopped! But Mu Feng was still normal and moved freely, or he was very abnormal, only he could move.

Opposite Mu Feng sat a mother and daughter, the little girl had just entered the kindergarten class, at this time she was squinting slightly, looking at her mother with a smile, the corners of her mouth were raised, as if there would be a childish laugh in the next moment. Mu Feng turned his head to look at the front of the car, at this time the car was just halfway through, the driver stopped in the posture of turning the steering wheel, he turned his head to look at the back of the car, the fat man who had just gotten in the car sweat flowed down his chin, and there was a drop still hanging in the air, and all the passengers in the car were like wax statues in vivid shape.

Mu Feng felt a little frightened, so he glanced at the world outside the window from near and far, and saw that some dilapidated buses next to the bus stop seemed to be starting, and a still visible exhaust no longer drifted away, and the young leaves at the top of the green belt on the side of the road were all floating to one side, as if there was a wind blowing. Looking into the distance again, everything in this world stayed at a certain moment, but Mu Feng left this moment, as if he had abandoned the whole world, but it was as if the whole world had abandoned him.

"What's the matter, how can this be?" Mu Feng felt like a dream, so he went back to his seat and closed his eyes, and after a while, he opened it again, and found that everything had not changed, and after trying so a few times, he panicked, and then he quickly ran to the front of the car and pressed the button to open the door, but no matter how hard he tried, the button did not move, as if it were just an ornament, he walked to the window, tried to remove the safety hammer, but could not get it down by all means.

When he realized that he couldn't move, he took off his T-shirt and hugged his elbow, and then hit the glass hard, but there was not a sound. No matter how hard you work, and you don't feel pain in your elbow. The anxiety in his heart made him seem to lose his mind, but the inexplicable fear made him nervous and made him very calm, and finally he gave up and fled, just sitting in the car and looking out the window, hoping that something would happen, such as: this is his own dream, or God is bored and joking with him, and the next moment, the world will "live" again.

Mu Feng found all kinds of "hopes", and even Ultraman and Superman thought of it. But nothing has changed, and just like that, the time displayed on the phone is stuck at 2:27 p.m. I don't know how long it took, but at this time, there was a sudden change outside the window. If Mu Feng would definitely not be able to detect it in normal times, but at very moments, his perception was extremely sensitive, and he noticed that there was a thin gray line in the distance where the sky met the land, so he kept staring.

Gradually, the thin line became thicker and thicker, though not fast, like the speed of a human walk. Mu Feng was a little pleased: the change he was expecting had finally appeared. But there was also some uneasiness about the consequences of that change. With such a complicated mood, he waited quietly, the bright line that gradually thickened and thickened did not seem to be hindered in any way, no matter whether there were tall buildings or lakes in the distance, the bright line did not pause at all, and the pace did not change in any way, just rising.

This reminded Mu Feng of the tide of the Qiantang River, and it was also gradually poured in from the junction of the water and the sky by a thin waterline, but the tide was much bigger than this, he looked at the tide of the Qiantang River, and felt that the tide seemed to rush out of the world and sweep everything in the waterway, and when the tide rushed to his eyes, Mu Feng felt more and more insignificant, the deafening sound, and the momentum of breaking the sky and the earth made him stunned and nailed to the spot and did not dare to move at all, as if as long as he turned around, the tide would rush to the shore and swallow him.

It was as if the tide was waiting for him to turn around, and then suddenly ran behind him and jumped at him. That time, he confronted the tide like that, and it was only when the waves had subsided and the people watching the tide gradually dispersed that he came back to his senses, softened his straight legs, and turned away tiredly. He was amused to think about it afterwards, but he still didn't know if the tide would come behind him when he turned around, and his feeling had not changed since he came back to his senses, even though he knew it was impossible, for the place he was standing in was a very safe area.

But it feels like I've traveled through time and space, found him, and won't change because of where he is, although I don't understand, but with the delay of time, it will be gone. Gradually, Mu Feng retreated from the perception of recalling the tide of the Qiantang River, and at this time he could already see the thread, no, the face of the thick bright line.

It still came from a distance without slowness, like a reality. The tall buildings that blocked its path, whether tall, short, thin, or fat, disappeared silently when they met him, neither the sound of the building collapsing, nor the scene of the rubble rolling down, but no longer saw any traces, as if it was originally part of the bright line, everything in the world, as long as it was visible, disappeared silently when encountering it.

In the near future, it is a wall of light connecting heaven and earth. Looking towards the very high places, he saw that he was at merge with the heavens, and looked at the earth, and wherever it passed, it was its domain, as if there was no gap with the earth. I don't know if it encompasses heaven and earth, or if it fills the heavens and the earth. This wall of light is not dazzling, gray, but there is light shining through it to make people feel bright and clear. Mu Feng was stunned by this scene, although it came silently, and there was no momentum of the tide of Qiantang, but it was so vast and unfathomable, it was beyond Mu Feng's cognition.

Mu Feng came back to his senses, he just saw the change in this side, and then he quickly looked in the other three directions, and found that the other three directions were the same, and he felt that he was surrounded by this wall of light. The wall of light still came forward towards him, as if he hadn't noticed that Mu Feng was different, and slowly approached him. He saw the little girl and her mother slowly disappear into the wall, and the little girl was still smiling, without any discomfort or pain, as if she could not feel anything around her.

Under the light against the backdrop of the light, it looks innocent and holy, really like a little angel in heaven, the mother looks at the little girl, her eyes are serene, revealing love. The big man behind the car was covered with beads of sweat, and gradually disappeared into the wall of light, and the sweat that hung in the air became crystal clear under the illumination of the light. Mu Feng watched everything in front of him melt into the wall of light, and he sat in his seat and forgot to escape, although there was no escape.

He stupidly watched the wall of light approaching him, watching the wall of light touching his toes, he thought it would be very painful, but after being engulfed, he didn't feel anything, and gradually the wall of light overflowed his knees, devouring his body, and then he was swallowed by the wall of light, he could feel that the whole body still existed, and it was not separated, and the wall of light was still gray and bright. He raised his hand, and found that the hand was transparent, and he could only vaguely see the outline, gradually, the light seemed to become stronger, he couldn't see anything, only light filled his eyes, whether he closed his eyes or not, slowly he felt that the light in his eyes was no longer light, and Mu Feng fell into darkness like this······
