It was raining, Dongsheng who had just gotten up heard the sound of rain outside the house, dripping, echoing in the mountains with bursts of mist, misty so that he could not see the path to the town clearly, ate the sweet potatoes steamed by his grandfather, carried his schoolbag, took a big umbrella, and walked into the rain in Liu Laohan's cloudy eyes.

Looking at the back of his grandson in the distance, Liu Laohan looked at it with fascination, the damp water vapor wet his dark cheeks, raised his rough fingers, he subconsciously touched his cheeks, touched a trace of wetness, it turned out that he was so old, so old that the faint rain could splash his cheeks at will, if it was in the past, the raindrops that splashed would be evaporated by the burning qi and blood in the body, and his own qi and blood were also decaying, and he needed his full attention to stimulate it, run his mind, and after a while, A scorching texture poured out on Liu Laohan's body, evaporating the wet stains on his body, isolating the splashing rain, remembering the conversation with the Pang family father and son last night, Liu Laohan's rickety body became lower and lower, and the sound of rain sounded a murmur, "Old man, ......", and then was covered by the sound of rain between heaven and earth.

Holding an umbrella, Dongsheng wore tube boots, walked to the entrance of the village with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and the fire three wheels with the shed stopped at the entrance of the village, rubbed the mud on the feet on the stones, and climbed on the fire three wheels, because the time was very early, and only the people who sent their children to study at home would go to the town in the rain, so there were not many people in the car, only a few people, and Dongsheng squatted at the back of the car. He doesn't like to sit in the closed car, especially on the fire three wheels there is a smell of Chen ramming, so he doesn't like it very much, sitting in the back of the car can look at the rain in a daze, the rain washed air will be a little fresh, he likes it very much, but the road will have a slight smell of dust, he will be extremely uncomfortable with rhinitis.

Seeing that there were no passengers after waiting for such a long time, the driver ignited the engine, boom boom......, with the roar of the engine, the whole body trembled slightly, and then the driver flicked the gear handle, the soles of his feet relaxed, and the fire tricycle trembled with the passengers in the rain to Xiaoshi Town.

When he reached the town, the rain became slightly lighter, from pouring down to a trickle, Dongsheng walked down the fire three wheels, walked towards Xiaoshi Town Middle School, holding an umbrella diagonally, he looked up at the sky, the dense drizzle fell from the foggy sky like cow hair, and some even floated into his eyes, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, stepping on the wet puddle, Dongsheng's boots were also washed clean, so that at least there was no need to stain the floor of the classroom, although their classroom was not much clean, but at least there would be no mud everywhere.

Passing by the steamed bun shop, I bought two steamed buns, wrapped in cold air, the steam of the steamed buns steamed like white mist, and blew the steamed buns a little less hot, Dongsheng ate the sprout buns in small bites, and walked into the school with steps.

Passing through the featureless rustic cement road, after a while, Dongsheng arrived at the door of the classroom, ate the last bite of buns, threw waste paper into the bamboo basket, he shook the water on the umbrella in the corridor, and then walked into the classroom, as soon as he entered the classroom, he saw Pang Heiwa sitting in his seat, some puffy and red eyes made him look like he hadn't slept well, Dongsheng held up the umbrella behind the classroom, walked to the last row of sanitary corners, sat down on the window seat, he put his hand on the old row of tables, propped his head and looked at Pang Heiwa, who was his friend and tablemate next to him.

Pang Heiwa, who was sitting in the seat, looked haggard, as if he hadn't slept well last night, he looked at the podium in a daze, his eyes were blank, and he had a completely expressional expression of staying up all night and not sleeping, and he was wandering into the world.

"Black man, did you stay up late last night to practice your craft?" Dongsheng said with some teasing.

Hearing this, Pang Heiwa turned his head blankly, and after seeing the people around him clearly, he shone up without a smile, and seemed to come back to his senses, and then he said with excitement and some apprehension: "Dongsheng, my brother used to speak badly, and he laughed at you for chattering, and my brother apologized to you today." ”

"Huh?" Dongsheng didn't understand.

Seeing his bewildered look, Pang Heiwa explained solemnly: "From now on, I may become very strange when I speak, and you will be crazy for me." ”

"Is it because you stay up late to practice your craft, so you can find an excuse?" Dongsheng pretended to be suddenly enlightened and said.

Sensing that Dongsheng looked indifferent to what he said, and was even joking with him, Pang Heiwa thought that when Dongsheng was talking to himself in his dreams before, he also had this attitude, and knew that Dongsheng must have thought that he, like his previous self, was daydreaming and talking nonsense.

Pang Heiwa suddenly felt depressed in his heart, as if he was drunk and I woke up alone, a sense of mission to carry the fate of the whole world surfaced in his heart, he knew that no matter how he explained, Dongsheng would not believe what he said, since this he could only choose to protect Dongsheng silently in secret, Pang Heiwa immediately swept away, looked at Dongsheng sincerely, patted his hand on his shoulder, and said sincerely: "Brother Dongsheng, you can rest assured, I will definitely protect you!" ”

Looking at his expression that touched him, Dongsheng only felt that he was not feeling strong, but he still looked at him sincerely and said, "Give up, I won't like men." ”

"Alas......! I said you, as a person, your brain is decorated with normal things. Pang Heiwa said a little angrily, she was a little hard-working, and she really met a dog biting Lu Dongbin.

"Hehe......", Dongsheng tugged at the corners of his mouth, not wanting to appreciate it, but seeing that he didn't want to be fake, he said helplessly: "Okay, then I thank you in advance for being willing to protect me, my good brother." ”

"Hmph......", Pang Heiwa pointed directly at him with her nostrils and gave her own reply.

After that, Dong Sheng saw that Pang Heiwa's depressed mood had improved slightly, so he stopped talking, and casually took out a martial arts novel "Yunhai Jade Bow Edge" from the drawer, and was about to open it and savor it, after all, Teacher Zhao was in charge of his class on Monday, and Dong Sheng's class had to study on their own.

"What are you looking at?" Pang Heiwa held her big head and glanced at it.

""Yunhai Jade Bow Edge" is super good-looking!" Dongsheng patted the cover and praised.

Pang Heiwa looked at the beautiful cover, her eyes lit up, and she said, "Lend me a look?" ”

"Fuck off, I haven't seen it yet." Dongsheng turned away, held the novel in his arms and faced the window, savoring it carefully.

"Shhhh It's so stingy, I don't want to think about it, I practiced martial arts hard, in order to protect someone, but someone didn't even want to borrow a novel from me. Pang Heiwa pouted.

"When you read novels, you don't need your old man's protection." Dongsheng looked at the novel intently, and said perfunctorily.

"Heh, it doesn't matter, you also have comics!" As she spoke, Pang Heiwa took out a comic book and read it.

Dongsheng didn't care about his anger, his eyes looked at the novel, and he said with interest: "Heiwa, what did you learn last night?" ”

"Want to know? Novel lend me a look! Pang Heiwa looked at the cartoon and smacked her mouth.

"It's not impossible, I'll lend it to you after reading it." Dongsheng said that they both often borrowed novels from each other, and Dongsheng didn't fool him.

"Gotta do it!" In response, Pang Heiwa turned the comic in her hand to another page, and after a little thought, she said: "I learned the family martial arts, which is different from the traditional martial arts, cultural training, and horizontal training, my family's martial arts is not the world's martial arts, but the legendary martial arts, and my grandfather said that there are strange things in the world, and we have blood, which can promote blood, integrate martial arts, and push ourselves to the ...... of martial arts." ”

Then Heiwa realized that something was wrong, and said everything that should be said and what should not be said, he subconsciously raised his head to cover his mouth, and glanced at Dongsheng, and found that he was still reading the novel seriously, nodding his head, as if he was savoring the novel, and seemed to be perfunctory Heiwa's speech.

[I guess I didn't hear it clearly...... Pay attention to Dongsheng's appearance, Pang Heiwa said luckily in her heart.

Just as he was about to pretend that he didn't say anything and look through the comics again, Dongsheng's voice sounded flat, "So, what bloodline are you?" ”

Hearing this, Pang Heiwa's pupils widened, and she suddenly turned her head to look at Dongsheng, only to see that he was still calm, his eyes always fell on the novel, and he turned the page casually, just like the question just now was also asked casually.

Seeing this, Pang Heiwa looked at him, and said in a slightly panicked tone: "Oh, it's not a great bloodline, it's just the bloodline of my Pang family, just like you are the bloodline of the Liu family, haha." After saying that, he still scratched his head innocently.

"Really?" Dongsheng held the novel in his hand, and looked at it calmly, as if he could penetrate Pang Heiwa's thick black face and poke at the bottom of his heart.

Being stared at by Dongsheng's calm eyes, Pang Heiwa, who was originally pretending to be stupid, also had facial twitches, and finally couldn't hold back, so she had to take off her disguise and put down her head scratching hand, Pang Heiwa stared at the comics, and said in a chagrinated tone: "Anyway, I don't know anything, and if you ask, it's useless." ”

Dongsheng was a little stunned by his play, rubbed the pages with his fingers, and said helplessly: "I'm just curious about what the bloodline you are talking about, don't you be so bitter and hateful, it's okay, it's like I'm coercing you." ”

"And I can't coerce you?"

After Dongsheng finished speaking, he didn't dwell on this matter anymore, and looked back at the novel, Pang Heiwa glanced at it cautiously, thinking that his mouth was leaking, he would be eager to slap himself, obviously grandpa must advise, don't say that he leaked his mouth, especially Dongsheng, but this is just the time to meet, and they all leaked out.

Now in addition to chagrin, his heart is impotent and furious, Pang Heiwa, Pang Heiwa, why can't you control your mouth like this?

The two of them each looked at the reading materials in their hands, but they didn't speak, Dongsheng felt that there was no need to continue, and Pang Heiwa fell into a frustrated mood because she missed her mouth.

"Jingle Bell ——!" The bell rings for the end of class in the morning.

"Let's go, let's go to the bathroom." Dongsheng put away the novel, got up and said.

"Oh, let's go." Pang Heiwa answered, keeping up with Dongsheng's pace, and the two tacitly revealed the matter.

Then came the normal class, and the morning passed in a swaying way.

During the day, the two of them followed the flow of people to the outside of the school, of course, they couldn't eat in the cafeteria on Monday, they needed to patronize the shops outside the school, and after a while, the two arrived at the snack street at the school gate, and ordered a slightly spicy fried noodles and two roasted sausages, and Pang Heiwa was an ordinary fat sausage noodles with eggs.

Sitting down on the side of the road, Dongsheng told Pang Heiwa about the novel he read this morning, which can be regarded as a preview for Pang Heiwa, and he was talking when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the newsstand where he bought comics on weekdays.

The lonely restaurant stood alone in the drizzle, and the canopy at the entrance blocked the sky and cut off the dampness.

Dong Sheng stopped talking, looked at the busy boss in the store, and thought that his and Pang Heiwa's meal should be served for a while, and he said, "I'll make a call." ”

"Huh?" Pang Heiwa was listening energetically, and there was only a look of confusion when she heard the words.

Before he could react, Dongsheng had already walked out of the shed, got into the drizzle, and walked briskly towards the newsstand, "Call? Muttering, Pang Heiwa watched Dongsheng walk into the canopy of the newsstand, he really didn't understand Dongsheng recently, he felt that his personality was much duller than before, and he used to joke occasionally, but now he always doesn't say a word, like a mute, but looking at his eyes, he always feels that he knows everything, as if nothing can change his mind.

"Alas......", sighing, Pang Heiwa pestle her head, looking at the figure of the newsstand through the drizzle, with a slight sound in her eyes.

"Boss, make a call." Putting a dollar on the countertop, Dongsheng picked up the pay phone and pressed the number he had written down in his heart.

The boss just glanced at him and didn't charge a dollar, after all, it depends on how long the guest calls, and if it's a long time then this dollar may not be enough.

When the dial button was pressed, the phone held in Dongsheng's ear came out with a dialing sound, "Beep... Honk... Boom..., clang! ”

The phone was picked up, Dong Sheng's heart was also like being caught, he was inexplicably a little nervous, but he didn't dare to speak, he waited silently, just when Dong Sheng thought that the phone call would end in silence, a voice sounded in his ears: "Hey? Which one are you looking for? ”

The mature female voice with a hint of vicissitudes came into Dongsheng's ears, Dongsheng's hand clenched unconsciously, he didn't know how to answer, his mouth was slightly open, only a slight exhalation, but he couldn't say anything.

The world in the rain is quiet, so quiet that Dongsheng can hear his own heartbeat.

"Hello?" Voices came from the earpiece again, this time with a hint of annoyance, as if to suspect whose prank it was.

"Bang dang!" Dongsheng hung up the phone and put it back in place, "...... it", exhaled, as if to spit out all the memories in his head, Dongsheng turned around and prepared to walk into the rain.

"Your money!" The boss's voice came.

"Huh?" Dongsheng looked back with doubts.

"It doesn't take more than three minutes, and no money is charged."

"Oh", Dongsheng took back the money on the table, and walked quickly into the rain.
