Chapter 7: Wait for Me
"Today's weather is good, I got up early in the morning and changed trains several times before I arrived at the foot of the Great Wall.
To be honest, when I saw the crowd at the ticket gate, I kind of wanted to give up and come back next time.
But then think about it, if I give up now and choose the next time, it means that I will have to get up early in the morning next time, turn around several times, and face such a scene again, maybe there will be more people at that time, after all, the motherland is developing rapidly, people's lives are much better, and people will have the energy and ability to come out to play after naturally filling their stomachs...... It's a bit of a fork.
Therefore, I still chose to be pushed into the ticket gate by the sea of people, and then pushed out by the sea of people.
When I stood in the open space, looking at the ticket in my hand, I couldn't believe my eyes, if Mu Mu was here, you would definitely be just as surprised, surprised how I did it...... It's a long way off.
Maybe it's because the ticket booth is too small that people get too crowded. The Great Wall is very long, and although it is full of people's heads, it is not crowded when walking in the crowd, and there is still some distance between people.
Let's talk about climbing the Great Wall, this Great Wall is much more difficult to climb than from Zhishan, it is full of stone steps, you have to raise your knees step by step and look up, unlike the dirt road that winds up from Zhishan, there are no steps, you can lift your feet to walk, and you don't need to raise your knees to a certain height.
However, I think if Mu Mu is here, you must still love to climb, because what you love most is the Great Wall, you said that the Great Wall is like the backbone of people. Moreover, the scenery on the Great Wall is really beautiful and shocking.
Standing on the high city wall, blowing the cool spring breeze, the green in front of me is boundless, especially the mountains and rivers in the distance... In this ethereal greenery, it looks like a fairyland.
I followed the example of an old man, letting the spring breeze lift my coat, and I pretended to touch my beard, which I didn't have, and stared at everything in front of me, imagining that if you were next to me, you would definitely be made to laugh by my appearance, and be as happy as a flower.
If it weren't for the fog in my eyes that confused my imagination, I would have spent more beautiful scenes with you in that imagination.
Even if you are nostalgic, you still have to leave.
It is much easier to go down the Great Wall than when you go up, and there are more people who sit and rest than when you go up to the Great Wall, and they have all kinds of food in their hands.
Okay, okay, let's write about climbing the Great Wall here, and for the rest, when I see you, I'll talk to you slowly. ”

"I thought that I could get to Huangshan by taking a train for more than 30 hours to Anhui, who knows, Huangshan is in Huangshan City, and the city I went to is not a place, I took a train for nine hours to Huangshan City, and then sat on a bus to shake to the foot of Huangshan Mountain is already evening, it is not the time to climb the mountain at all, so I can only find a place to rest, and then climb the next day.
The weather was overcast and cold, the wind was blowing, and a few drops of rain were falling from time to time, and the shop where I stayed didn't burn the stove, so it was even colder in the house. When the store manager saw that I was not a local, he explained that it was like this in the south. But I think the crockpot village is also southern, why do we burn stoves there? If you were, would you be patient enough to ask in detail? I think you definitely will. You see, I still need you...... The conversation diverged again.
I asked the store manager for an extra quilt, put on all the clothes in my bag, lay on the bed, and then pressed all the quilts on my body, so that I felt a little warmer.
If Mu Mu is here, he will definitely be frozen and shrunk in a corner, and he can't pull it out, although when you were a child, you always said that you were not afraid of the cold...... The conversation diverged again.
The next day, before dawn, I was woken up by the store manager. He said that there was a car at this time, and asked me if I wanted to sit, I thought that if I slept for a while, if there was no car, I would have to wait for an unknown amount of time, so I decided to take the car that the store manager said to the mountain......
I naively thought that I wouldn't have to wait in line to go so early, and when I saw the endless queue ahead, I was actually quite desperate in my heart, if you were by my side, I would definitely be tempted to complain to you, but unfortunately you are not there...... Diverting the topic again.
I waited in line for more than two hours before I got my ticket.
You don't have to climb the mountain on foot, you just need to go up in a car.
Leaning on the window of the car, looking down at the green trees and green mountains below through the window of the car, it seems that he has soared into an immortal, and he floats away little by little.
It is not completely to the top of the mountain, and you still need to climb it. After arriving at the mountain, there is a special tour guide with a group of people, began to explain and walk, a group of unfamiliar people gathered together, quite like a group of Jianghu chivalrous people gathered here, everyone laughed and laughed, slowly and leisurely talked about their unfamiliar swords, talking about their own unclear Tao.
It's just that I always think that they talk too much and walk too slowly, so I just walk for a while, wait for a while, and finally wait until the guide who is leading the way finally rests, and let us scatter the heroes on our own. So, as if I had regained my freedom, I broke away from the group and walked around, walking, and walked down the mountain.
The sun was still hanging high, shining warmly on the long queue of people who still had no end in sight at the bottom of the mountain.
I wondered if I should go back to the tour guide, but in the end I chose to leave directly. If you were there at that time, you would definitely persuade me to go back, what would you say, you would say, if the tour guide couldn't find us, he would definitely not go down the mountain, if he stayed on the mountain for the rest of his life, what would he do?
Hehe... It's just a joke that I suddenly imagined that wasn't funny.
Okay, okay, that's all for the matter of climbing Huangshan, and the rest, when I see you, I'll talk to you slowly. ”

"After arriving in Hangzhou, I didn't know what was wrong with me, I felt groggy, like a cold, and it didn't look like it, and I slept in the hotel for a few days before I got better.
I don't know if it's because I'm sick, or if I miss you too much, I always feel like you're by my side for a few days, asking me if I'm hungry, asking me if I want to drink water, asking me to cover the quilt for a while, and urging me to go to the hospital quickly...... but when I answer, you're gone. I shouted your name, over and over again, and you just wouldn't answer me.
Mu Mu, I feel like I can't hold on, this is the seventh year that you have left, and more than 20,000 days is really too painful for me...... I'm sorry, but I've diverted the subject again.
After about a week of sleep, my body finally got better and I went to West Lake.
The place where I live is a bit far from the West Lake, and it took several buses to get to the edge of the West Lake.
The sky was overcast, as if reading all my state of mind. The dripping raindrops fell on the umbrellas, ticking and ticking, but cheerful, as if you had sent them to amuse me.
I bought a boat ticket, sat on a small boat, and walked around the West Lake.
The water of the lake is green, the trees around it are green, and even the islands in the lake are surrounded by green, which is very different from the spring season, and the color is as deep as a spy sent by autumn.
Aside from the deep greenery of the eyes, there is not much to see in West Lake. If you are around, you can still talk to me and talk about the imagination in the green depths. It's a pity that you're not here, and I can only listen to the people next to me say those imaginative words, just listening.
I thought it wouldn't take long to walk around the West Lake, but by the time I got off the boat, it was already afternoon, and even though the sky was getting disguised, the watch was very honest, and I remembered the hours from morning to afternoon clearly.
When I got back to the shore, I didn't rush back to where I was staying, but walked around. The surrounding scenery is more interesting than the West Lake, all kinds of wooden houses look very Jiangnan taste, the raindrops you sent make this Jiangnan become a more charming Jiangnan Yanyu Jiangnan, hazy, very comforting to my heart.
Xu is too long to sleep, too much spirit, and when I think of going back to the place where I live, it is already dark, the morning car has no shifts, I only have to ask for help, and finally met a kind brother with a motorcycle to give me a ride.
Playing an umbrella on a motorcycle was basically an extra move, because when I came back, my clothes were still all wet.
The clothes I changed are still in the bathroom, and when I finish writing this letter to you, I'll wash them.
Okay, okay, there seems to be only so much about Hangzhou, if you have something you want to ask, and wait a little longer, and when I go to find you, ask slowly.
By the way, I'm going to go to Suzhou on a cloudy day. I still remember when you were in school and saw the sentence 'There is heaven above, and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below', you talked about Suzhou and Hangzhou for a long time. I'll write you another letter after I'm done reading it on a cloudy day, how do you say? ”

"I thought Tibet was quite close to where I was, so I didn't rush to buy tickets and make plans.
When I started to plan my trip, I realized that there was no direct train to my place, and I had to take a train for more than ten hours to Lanzhou and then nearly thirty hours to get to Lhasa.
I was a little worried about the nearly two-day and two-night drive, and I probably had swollen legs and feet because I had been sitting in the car recently, which made me want to give up even more.
However, when I think that this is the ninth year that I have borrowed from you, I don't know how much I still have left, and if I give up this time, it is hard to say whether there will be a chance to come next time. So, I gritted my teeth and embarked on the journey.
But I'm sorry, Mumu. My body is very uncompromising, I have severe altitude sickness, and I can't insist on taking you to see the highest peak in the world.
When I go to you, let's go find the highest peak in that world and climb it together, okay?
It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, and when I go to find you, you answer slowly. ”

"Mumu, this is the tenth year I've borrowed from you.
Recently, my health has deteriorated a lot, and I woke up in the hospital several times, and the doctor said that I was fortunate to meet a kind person, and I know that the kind person must have been found by you who felt sorry for me.
I couldn't get enough letters in my backpack, and I felt like we were about to meet.
So, I decided to go back to the place where you slept, I wanted to sleep next to you, I was afraid that I would be too far away from you and I would not find you when I got to that world.
You know, in this world, I've lost you, and I don't want to lose you in that world. You know this, you should always know it, that's why you've been with me for so long, waited for me for so long, and paid so much for me......
This train is so slow, I'm afraid I won't be able to get to you, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep next to you, I'm afraid I'll lose you again......
Mumu, help me at the end! For the sake of me running towards you with so much beauty and food, help me, help me get to the end of this train, help me get to you......
When we meet, I'm sure I'll thank you well, reverently and lovingly. ”

"Mumu, I feel the fragility of life you said, I wander back and forth on its edge, and I often hear you say, you think I am tight, let me go to you quickly.
But my parents always say that I am confused, and even if you think about it too much, they will not urge me to look for you.
I don't argue with them, they'll never understand. After all, you are a sensible adult in their eyes, but you are a coquettish child in my eyes, you have always been like this in front of me, I remember it, even if the sober days are getting fewer and fewer, I remember it.
Mu Mu, the pen in my hand to write to you has become disobedient, always crooked, and the words written are also crooked, I have tried my best to write well, but it still looks crooked, when you bring it over, you have to forgive me.
It's okay, wait for me ......."

There is a new tomb next to Fang Mumu's tomb, and the tombstone standing in front of the tomb is engraved: The tomb of the deceased husband Yuan Chengle.
In front of their tombstones, there was a pile of letters full of words that had been burned in the fire, slowly turning to ashes. As soon as the wind blew lightly, the black ashes fluttered up, like fireflies with black lamps, bringing the words "wait for me" that had not burned out at the end and had not finished the rest of the text to the place where they were.
