Chapter 11 The Three-Year Pledge A piece of hemp rope

Liang Xiaowu's sentence "Grandpa Hu, are you still there?" really has a taste of being in another world.

This ridicule in the corridor ten years ago has now turned into affection and emotion, and the old man's eyes were wet for a while.

Seeing the situation, Hu Hao persuaded: "Grandpa, let's not do it anymore, live well, like Liangzi, isn't it?"

The old man eased his nerves, and suddenly said to Xiao Wu very seriously: "I have a question, you have to answer me." ”

Xiao Wu nodded subconsciously, but he didn't know what was actually going on.

The old man said, "Can you tell me what you have been thinking since you became a fool?"

What have I been thinking since I became a fool?Xiao Wu asked himself. He found that since he woke up, he had never been able to, or rather, afraid to think about it. It seemed that with every exertion, a certain part of the chest would split, and a certain spell would sound, making him feel as uncomfortable as if he had taken a hormone.

Hu Hao interjected: "Grandpa, what do you mean by asking this? Everyone else has become stupid, so naturally they don't remember anything." ”

The old man ignored him and just stared at Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu shook his head reluctantly, and began to split again.

The old man sighed and said to Hu Hao, "Do you know that grandpa has got a treasure these days?"

"Baby, don't lie. I can't be sure if it was a health care product that was bought by someone?" Hu Hao didn't believe it.

The old man smacked his lips and said, "Your grandfather, am I such a stupid person? This treasure was given to me by the seller of baked cakes at the door of our house, look, it is still their ancestor!" The rough texture, coiled around his bony waist, looks extraordinarily matched.

Hu Hao felt ashamed, and hurriedly covered the quilt and said, "Don't show your dignity, it's a baby!"

The old man didn't care, he reached into the quilt and pounded it for a while, pulled the hemp rope out in a blink of an eye, and said to Xiao Wu: "Take it, give it to you!"

Xiao Wu turned his head and looked at Hu Hao, not knowing whether to pick it up or not.

The old man said, "If you want me to be normal, just continue!"

Hu Hao listened, raised his chin, and asked Xiao Wu to accept it first.

Xiao Wu said: "Grandpa Hu, why did you give me your baby?"

The old man said, "This matter is a long story. A while ago, I thought it was boring to live, hey, it's really boring, no, my son is not around, and my grandson doesn't come to see me often, and I compete with myself all day long, what do I want? But I'm not a stuffy gourd, so I told the guy who sells baked cakes at the door, who told us to be acquainted? As soon as he heard this, he said that there was a way to help me. He said they had a gadget in the house that his father had left him. He said that after taking it, he could remember what he dreamed at night. People, the more boring the day, the more fun it is in the dream. So he was willing to lend me two days to see if I could relieve my boredom with this. I said why don't you keep it yourself, he said that his wife didn't let it, and he thought this thing was evil, but in fact, it was just a thing, it couldn't hurt anyone, at most it was a neurasthenia. ”

Hu Hao said: "Just this trouser belt? What? He also said that he couldn't hurt anyone, it turned out that you didn't think about tea and food, and the co-authorship was all thanks to him." ”

The old man said: "You can't say that, you have a greater responsibility to snub the lonely elder." Hehe, since I got this thing, I've opened the door to a whole new world. Zhuangzi, do you know? It's the one who dreamed of his transformation. There is a poem, how do you say it? Zhuang Sheng dreamed of a confused dream. ”

Hu Hao said: "Grandpa, that's 'Zhuang Shengxiao's dream butterfly', what 'confused'?!"

"Yes, anyway, it was that Zhuang Sheng who had a dream, and he was confused, thinking that he was a butterfly. Grandpa, I'm like that. Old man Hu smiled.

At this moment, Liang Xiaowu was completely split, and the words "Zhuang Shengmeng" were like a few buttons, click-click-click, and his memory was unlocked step by step.

Gamblers are easy to do, let's do it again, Lai Han is difficult to drill, and we have to continue to drill. A different self is breaking out of the shell.

Old man Hu continued: "Grandpa, I just found out that this dream is really addictive, and it's much more fun than being with you. But just a little, there is always a young man pestering me in my dreams, so that I can't get rid of him every day. Hey, it's strange to say, this guy is still a little connected with your Liangzi. ”

Xiao Wu's scalp was sweating, and he was going through a difficult time from splitting to overlapping. I only heard Hu Hao quip: "Grandpa, can you still dream of Liangzi in your dreams?" ”

Old man Hu said: "You are poor. But I did wonder, and then I took a closer look at the young man's appearance, and I thought it was a bit like my own youth, and you said it was strange. Dare I look alike to Liang Zi?"

Hu Hao said: "Don't say it, you old and young really have one thing in common." ”

Old man Hu said curiously: "What is it?"

"Bet!" Hu Hao put one hand on Xiao Wu's shoulder, pointed to the old man with the other, and smiled fairly and objectively: "Two gamblers." ”

Isn't it? Gamblers are prone to dreaming, dreaming of Zhuang Sheng.

Xiao Wu finally woke up.

is like a scavenger picking up the rags he fell on the road, including passing on his merits, fighting against the enemy, destroying the enemy, trapping, being restrained, humiliated, unconscious, falling into a dream, meeting a woman, watching a disc, participating in secrets, falling asleep, studying sentences, and getting out of prison, he welcomed back himself who had just vowed to embark on the road of fear, but there was no Allah by his side.

Xiao Wu looked at the rough hemp rope in his hand, and suddenly felt that this thing belonged to him naturally, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Old man Hu said: "You see, the two of us have one thing in common, that is, we both like this rope." ”

"Then how can you be willing to give it to Liangzi?" Hu Hao teased.

Old Man Hu's eyes suddenly dimmed, and he said, "I'm tired of it." This rope seems to take you back to life, but after playing with it, I found that my life is really boring. Although it is more exciting than the one in front of you, no matter how wonderful the scene is, you can't stand it over and over again. Grandpa, I'm tired, and I want to be clean later. It can also give me a taste of fairy, as long as I control myself in a half-dream, half-awake, but it's not much like death, isn't it? If Liang Zi hadn't come back to life, I'd probably have confessed like this, right?"

Xiao Wu leaned out, took the old man's hand, and said knowingly: "Tell me, does he have a candle on his head?"

Old Man Hu's eyes lit up again, his chin was retracted, and he exclaimed, "Yes, yes, how do you know?"

Xiao Wu said gently: "Didn't you ask me what I was thinking after I became a fool? Actually, I also had a dream. ”

"Can you tell grandpa what you dreamed of after you became a fool?" the old man's voice trembled a little.

Xiao Wu said: "Revenge." ”

Old man Hu stared at him for a long time, and finally laughed and said loudly: "Haha, I really didn't give this rope to the wrong person." Your story must be a hundred times better than grandpa!"

"Then you promised to eat well?" Hu Hao followed.

The old man said: "You two boys make another bet with me, this time think about the long term, let me have a head." ”

"That's good," Xiao Wu stood up and wrapped the hemp rope around his waist, and said meaningfully, "Then bet on whether I can make my dream come true." ”

Hu Haoqi said: "What kind of gamble is this? ”

The old man sighed and said, "That's it! Haha! Haozi, let's bet with him." In this way, we bet that he will not be able to complete it within three years. Liang Zi, how about three years, three years? Within three years, if you can't finish it, you have to invite our grandparents and grandchildren to have a drink. In order to eat this wine, grandpa, I will not die. ”

"Okay, just three years. Xiao Wu and the old man dragged Hu Hao, who was not in a situation, and swore with a high-five, and the ward was full of life all of a sudden.

At this time, the old man suddenly remembered something and said to Hu Hao: "Haozi, aren't your classmates that today? You happen to go with Liangzi! I don't need you to take care of it here, there is a nurse, and your father will come tomorrow." ”

"What's the matter?" Xiao Wu asked vigilantly.

June 6, 2016, 666, good day, Dashun. The old man was talking more and more.

Hu Hao shook his hand and glanced at Xiao Wu: "I don't plan to go." ”

Xiao Wu gloomy and asked, "Who married whom?"

"It's your high school classmates!" the old man was endless.

Xiao Wu didn't speak, looking at Hu Hao's face.

"Who else?" Wang Yi can and ......" Hu Hao glared at his grandfather, "and Gu Xiaojing." ”

The old man observed his words and looks, and immediately understood, and hurriedly apologized: "Damn it, damn it, just come to mix blindly as soon as you are normal, what do you say I am blindly mixing?"

Xiao Wu waved his hand and continued to say to Hu Hao: "Haozi, let me ask you, when you came to my house two months ago, did you come with Gu Xiaojing and them? They came to send me a wedding card, right?"

"I thought your mom wouldn't let you see the wedding card. Hu Hao said embarrassedly.

Xiao Wu relaxed his expression and said, "She didn't, I guess." But since they did send a wedding card, I'm definitely going to go, right?"

"Are you really going?" Hu Hao looked at him with admiration.

Xiao Wu was categorical: "Go." Why don't you go. You go with me, and we all go. ”

"Good job!" Old man Hu said: "Like a man!" Come, grandpa asks you, if you want to talk from your heart, do you want this wedding wife to be peaceful, or is it lively?"

Xiao Wu sneered: "Of course, the more lively the better." ”

"Interesting! Listen to grandpa, tell Haozi to push your wheelchair over directly, this fool, wronged you to pretend to be a little longer. I see you pretend to be quite similar, and ten years of life is not a vain experience. Let's give him a pig and a tiger, a Trojan horse, what kind of slaughter city. Now it's time to test the groom's official, if he is kind-hearted, I'm afraid he is a villain who gets carried away. If he takes the opportunity to bully you, you will definitely kill you?"

Xiao Wuxin said that this old man really connected with me, nodded, turned to Hu Hao and said, "It's not early, let's go over." ”

"Okay, I heard that I was a little excited, and I walked. ”

Xiao Wu asked, "Where is the address?"

"Hey, hey, right in the same hotel where we broke up!"

......

2006, 2016, although it will not be turned upside down, but it is also "people are not things".

A certain dynasty is established and collapses, a certain star extinguishes the street lamp at four o'clock in the morning, a certain event turns from a blueprint to a myth, a certain hero falls under the railing, a black man becomes a great leader, women hold up the blue sky and the white sun, the end of the world is over, the beard is finished, who is married to whom, who is divorced from whom, who is harmonious, who is back, who is still chasing dreams, who is still alive.

Those things that have changed stimulated Liang Xiaowu's resentment, no experience, no witness, ten years of life, too unfair.

Those things that haven't changed have given Xiao Wu confidence, maybe he hasn't been away for too long, and the people who underestimate him are still very young.

They went out of their way to see the old house. Big iron door, small windows. That's where his mother threw down his black uniform, told him to start from scratch, and since then, he hasn't grown curly hair.

The Smiths' store has been demolished and is now a bus stop, with P2P text on the billboard.

The cinema has been transformed into an exclusive theater for idol artists. In the corner of the shiny poster, there is a vague frame of "Superman Returns".

Even that hotel has been inlaid with the gold of a local tyrant and turned into a luxury five-star hotel. It's just that the name is in the same vein, and it seems to tell people that although its boss has exploded, he is still a nostalgic person.

"Are you ready?" Hu Hao reminded Xiao Wu, who was in a wheelchair, that he had to face reality next.

"Let's go!" Xiao Wu looked ahead.

Before being born again, it's time to make a break with the past.
