Chapter 242: A Long Farewell (I)

When he received a call from the postal courier, Su Chengyi was lying on his desk and knocking on the plan.

Progress was slow, but he wasn't in a hurry.

This kind of game is not a fast food culture, and since quality is put first, excellence is the most important thing.

But he stretched and glanced at an unnamed applet on the desktop.

It's okay to catch both ends.

Just as I was about to get up and change my shoes and go downstairs to get the courier, another phone call came in.

"Hey! Mr. Yi, are you at home? Brother is coming for you. ”

Xu Yang said happily on the other end of the earpiece.

His college entrance examination results were not satisfactory, and he was easy to be counted down by his mother when he stayed at home, so he simply wandered out all day long.

"Just in time, help me get a courier."

Su Chengyi decisively took off the shoes that had been put on one foot again.

"Okay. Postal? This little brother hasn't left yet, hang up first, you leave the door open, I'll come up right away. ”

Before the busy "beep" busy sound of hanging up the phone ended, there was a "boom" footsteps in the stairwell.

Su Chengyi stuck, unscrewed the doorknob.

Xu Yang waved the document bag in his hand like showing trophies and got into the room.

"What's this? It's so light, I thought I got it wrong, but look at the name is yours. ”

As he spoke, he slumped comfortably on the couch as if he were back at home.

"I don't know, you can help me dismantle it."

Su Chengyi poured a glass of cold water and closed the computer with his hand.

Xu Yang nodded, crossed Erlang's legs and unpacked the outer package very casually.

Originally, he thought that the great god had bought another book or something, but the red corner he pulled out made him quickly smell something wrong, and he sat up straight.

Sure enough, after the casual outer document bag was removed, a huge red background gold word "He" was displayed on the inner packaging, and the logo of Beijing University was also revealed.

"! Admission letter from Kyoto University! ”

Xu Yang instantly let out a howl of envy.

Su Chengyi put the cup in front of him, glanced at it casually, and motioned for him to open it again.

Xu Yang was as excited as if he had received a notice from Beijing University, and he couldn't stop hearing the sound of the ape.

After finally calming down, I started to dismantle it again.

Move cautiously, for fear of destroying the edges and corners.

The admission letter is a folded three-dimensional structure, and the design is very small.

The traditional gilded text, coupled with the long history of Beijing University, gives people a sense of historical precipitation and heaviness.

Xu Yang opened it with respect and read out the text on the notice:

"Su Chengyi:

Our school has decided to admit you to the Faculty of Law.

Please report to the school on time on 28 August 2014 with this notice. ”

Underneath is the signature of the president and the seal of Kyoto University.

Xu Yang reacted after reading it, and said with some shock:

"Mr. Yi, you chose a law major???

"Hmm."

Su Chengyi took a sip of water slowly.

"What, how do you choose a liberal arts major, I thought you would definitely go to applied physics, materials chemistry, biological science.

No, I even thought you would 100% choose BGI.

The temperament of the BGI admissions office is too much in line with you, and it is not against you to join them now. ”

Xu Yang smacked his lips and counted all the science majors he could think of.

Su Chengyi listened to him perfectly avoid all his possible options, and interrupted loudly:

"Stereotypes. Have you received your notice? ”

"Not yet."

Xu Yang took out his mobile phone and said "click" at his notice.

"I use it when I quarrel with someone on the Internet in the future. What are you! What a status for me! Stand directly on the commanding heights of academic qualifications. ”

After taking high-definition photos from all angles, Xu Yang was finally satisfied.

Su Chengyi didn't bother to care about him, he sent a message to Chu Tianmian as soon as possible.

"Did you get the notice?"

It took a few minutes for the other party to reply with a rabbit nodding "uh-huh" emoji.

followed by a freshly baked unboxing video, it is estimated that this is being recorded just now.

"Do you have a video camera on your head?"

hasn't clicked on it yet, but it's just the top-down angle of the cover, so Su Chengyi replied first.

"It's annoying, is it good that Steward Han helped shoot it!"

The contents of the package were exactly the same as his. There is a student handbook for this year's new students, which is about a school map.

There is also a brief introduction to the student financial aid work system, which is obviously not needed by Miss Chu.

There has always been a "whoosh" sound in the video that Fury wants to join in the fun, but it may not like the plastic smell of the express package, so it doesn't come closer.

It's okay, otherwise it will be troublesome to bite the notice.

After seeing that he didn't reply, Chu Tianmian sent several messages in a row.

"Su Chengyi, Su Chengyi!"

"Do you have time in the afternoon~"

"Fury says he misses you and wants you to hang out with him.

It also said that it will go to school in a few days, and that you should hurry up and spend more time with it.

Next time I come back, he'll be a big dog! ”

Chu Tianmian said this, and Su Chengyi thought of a problem that he accidentally ignored.

That was when he sent Furui to Chu to sleep, patronizing to make up for his childhood trauma, and he didn't remember that they, as prospective freshmen, were about to leave their hometown and go to the capital.

Although the Chu family can buy a suite for the eldest lady in the capital and bring Furui over together.

But with the temperament of a small class leader, I definitely don't want to be the kind of person who is out of the collective, and I guess I want to experience dormitory life.

So by the time they came back from winter vacation, Fury had grown from a little uncle to an uncle.

"Don't get me wrong, it's not like I miss you."

Chu Tianmian added another sentence without three hundred taels of silver here.

For fear that his careful thoughts would not be exposed enough.

Su Chengyi replied:

"Well, there's no time."

Seeing him say this, Miss Chu instantly became anxious.

"Fury is also your dog, ruthless Su Chengyi!"

"It's okay to play for a while, I'll pick you up."

“.”

"It's me who I think you're I miss you, it's I miss you, okay!"

Su Chengyi waited until the last one before typing with a smile:

"Got it. But today there is something. ”

“!!!”

It's really fun for the little squad leader to tease, Su Cheng thought.

But there is indeed something today, not to find an excuse to reject her.

"Sister Mian is also going to Beijing University? What did she study? Ouch I'll go. ”

Xu Yang peeled an orange and handed it to Su Chengyi for half of it, then stuffed the other half into his mouth, and was immediately sour.

"Business Administration."

Su Cheng immediately put the orange back on the coffee table without a trace.

This is when he met an old man with a basket on his back on his way home, selling while walking, and seeing that it was getting late, he simply bought it all.

But before he could taste it, Xu Yang tried the poison first.

Now it seems that there is a reason why it can't be sold.

The two chatted for a while, and Xu Yang was called home by Xu's mother's deadly serial call.

Most of them have already received his acceptance letter.

They were all sent from the capital, so the time of arrival was similar.

Su Chengyi glanced at the time, it's okay, anyway, his schedule today is also very busy.

I made an appointment with a large group of people.

The first stop is at the other end of the old town, where the buildings are all small courtyards that are old and often inhabited by older people with heads and faces.

Su Chengyi is very familiar with this place.

When he was a kid, he used to run over as soon as he got out of school.

"Take the No. 2 bus, get off and turn left for 200 meters, and the first yard planted with camphor trees at the right corner is my grandfather's house."

At that time, my grandfather touched his head and explained this sentence over and over again.

In fact, Su Chengyi remembered it after listening to it once, and he didn't understand why he kept repeating it at all.

Later, I learned that even if it was repeated 10,000 times, where could my grandfather relax and take the car by himself?

They all hid behind him from the school gate and followed him all the way.

Unlike the fast-growing main city and the dilapidated old town of Su Chengyi's house, there are not many traces of modernity left here, and those old objects are well protected by the owners.

Also, living in such a small yard is much more like living in a unit building.

Planting flowers in the yard and teasing cats is a very comfortable life.

Su Chengyi walked all the way, birds chirping, and the fragrance of flowers was permeating.

The light and shadow of the leaves are dazzling, and the walls and tiles of the old alleys are mottled.

It's the end of the lunch break at the elementary school next to him, and the children with school bags and school uniforms chasing and playing past him.

Turn left for 200 meters and turn right.

Su Chengyi raised his head, and the camphor tree was as lush and green as in his memory.

Now it is like a pavilion.

The courtyard door was not locked, Su Chengyi stretched out his hand and gently pushed it, the mahogany seeped water, and there was a warm and moist smell.

There was a light rain last night.

Su Chengyi hasn't been back here for a long time, and with the mood of things and people, he is ready to meet the devastation.

But the situation is clearly not what he thinks.

This courtyard that has not been inhabited for a long time looks no different from the lively and popular ones that have just passed by.

There is not even a clump of weeds on the neat flower beds and lawns, and the stone tables and stone benches under the camphor trees are clean and clean, and there is a chessboard that goes down to the endgame.

It's like the owner was sitting here five minutes ago, just out for a while.

Su Chengyi stepped on the flat marble floor, and when he finally stood in front of the house, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

The key in his pocket was held all the way, and he lowered his head and inserted it into the lock hole, and there was a "click".

The breeze bypassed behind him, pushing open the door that held old memories for him.

The smell of dust belonging to the old house was blown away by the wind, and Su Chengyi was choked and coughed, but he didn't avoid it, just raised his feet and walked in.

The furnishings are the same as the old, the window grilles are the same, and the tables, chairs and benches are the same as the old.

Su Chengyi looked up at the two words hanging on the carved pillar.

On the right is my grandfather's head, with unbridled and chic brushwork.

"You don't see, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky, rushes to the sea and never returns."

On the left is immature handwriting.

One stroke at a time, you can see that the writing is serious.

"You don't see, Gao Tang Mingjing is sad and white-haired, and the morning is like green silk turning into snow at dusk."

This was written by Su Chengyi when he was just learning calligraphy in the third grade of primary school, and it was crooked and unsuccessful.

My grandfather said that it was very commemorative, so he hung it in front of the door, and he would brag about it when he met people.

Su Chengyi's footsteps froze, and after a long time, he took two steps back and locked the door again.

It's a bit rude, but the guests should meet here.

Su Chengyi rolled up his sleeves and wiped the two stone benches in the courtyard.

After staring at the red and black chess game on the table for a long time, there was nothing left and right, and Su Chengyi simply began to study this endgame.

He doesn't play chess well, and he is more familiar with Go.

The masters near this courtyard are estimated to have the strength of national players, and they are in the endgame here, Su Chengyi does not have the confidence to be able to crack it.

So it's just a casual look.

There are still three pawns left on the field, a red car, and a veteran coach.

It's a very weird arrangement, and at first glance, someone deliberately placed it.

The three pawns are arranged in a triangle to protect each other, and no matter which one the red rook eats, it will be eaten by the other pawn.

Su Chengyi took a look at it and guessed that the way to crack this game of chess lies in using the principle that the general cannot meet with the handsome and the pawn cannot retreat.

Break up the formation of the three pawns to break the game.

It's a bit like playing a small game of Huarong Dao or Sokoban, Su Chengyi couldn't help but think while playing chess.

When he successfully ate the pawn who dropped the order, a laugh came from behind him, accompanied by the sound of clapping:

"Good chess."

Su Chengyi put down the chess pieces in his hand, stood up and said hello:

"Elder Li."

"You're doing a good game."

Li Lao patted him on the shoulder with a smile, unfolded the folding fan in his hand, and fanned the wind in his ear.

Su Chengyi shook his head and motioned for Li Lao to take a seat.

"I just know a little bit about the rules."

After Li Lao sat down opposite him, he couldn't help but ask again:

"Have you been asking someone to clean the yard?"

Li Lao didn't answer immediately, but looked around the courtyard with a smile. When his eyes fell on the daisies blooming on the flower bed, he spoke:

"I used this place as an experimental base, and I planted I don't know how many varieties, and in the end, only this little wildflower bloomed the best."

Su Chengyi realized that the courtyard had always been taken care of by himself.

Therefore, the chess game should also be set by him.

"I'm going to report to the capital in two days."

Su Chengyi paused, took out the key in his pocket, and put it on the stone table.

"Maybe you'll want to come in and sit down when you have time. So I'm looking for you today, and by the way, I want to hand over the key to you. ”

Li Lao looked at the key, but smiled and sighed.

"How long has it been since you visited your grandfather's house?"

"From the year he died, to this day."

Su Chengyi replied.

"Do you feel embarrassed if I asked you to meet here today?"

Li Lao continued to ask, his gaze seemed to stay on the golden bronze key, and as if he was looking far away.

Su Chengyi shook his head.

"No, it won't."

He thought for a moment, and then continued:

"I'm not entirely afraid of touching the scene, it's just that for me, revisiting the old place is like carving a boat for a sword.

When I was a child, I thought this was the stupidest story in the world, the sword fell in the river, what can I find on the shore?

But then I understood that the Si people had passed away, and no matter how many times they returned to their hometown, the light boat had crossed the Ten Thousand Mountains.

I still can't keep anything, I can't get anything back.

This camphor tree is exactly the same as it remembers it, ten years is nothing to it, but I am no longer a child. ”

Li Lao was a little silent when he heard this, and the two sat silently opposite each other in front of the chessboard, only hearing the sound of the wind rustling the leaves.

After a long time, Li Lao sighed leisurely.

"I can't think of it."

He took out a thermos cup from his pocket like a trick, tilted the cup, poured half a cup of tea into the lid, and handed it to Su Chengyi.

Su Chengyi took it with both hands and took a sip.

It is the best Tieguanyin tea, full of fragrance.

"You take the key, I'll just sit in the courtyard."

Elder Li pushed the key back in front of him.

Su Chengyi no longer persuaded him, nodded and withdrew it in his pocket.

"Today, you kid took the initiative to find me, which makes me very happy.

The phone said that there was something I wanted to help with, what was it? Although. ”

Li Lao drank tea and tapped his fingers on the chessboard.

"I checked the student handbook of Beijing University, and there were not many courses in the first year.

So in my spare time, I want to try my hand at starting a business. ”

After Su Chengyi finished saying his thoughts, Elder Li nodded approvingly.

"Which line of karma? Now that you've found me, do you want to write a song or arrange a song?

On the celebration of the first middle school, I have heard you sing, and your voice is very good, if you want to sing, you can do it. I'll help you see if there's a suitable tune. ”

"I'll tell you the truth, I actually want to make a game."

Su Chengyi shook his head again and again, he was not interested in being a singer at all, and he also knew that his strength was a few pounds and a few taels.

I'm really going to make my debut as a singer, I'm afraid I don't want to spray people to death.

But since Li Lao expressed his attitude, he still secretly wrote it down.

has this kind of rare opportunity, maybe Chen Jinzhi can use it in the future.

Li Lao was not surprised to hear him say this.

He himself has taken over the production of soundtracks for many domestic games.

"Good idea. Is the team ready? ”

"I'm the only one at the moment."

"Poof."

Li Lao almost squirted out the tea.

"Is it financial difficulties?"

"Not really."

Su Chengyi scratched his head, for fear that Li Lao would misunderstand that he was here to fight the autumn wind.

Well, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's an autumn wind.

If it weren't for his grandfather's relationship, he would not have been able to contact such a national-level composer who has retired from the circle.

Although he has no plans to prostitute for nothing, the production budget is not worth mentioning compared to the effect brought out by the name Li Qingshan.

"It's still in its infancy, but I'm confident that I can do it well.

Everything else is fine, but in my mind, the music and art design are the most important parts of the game. ”

- Because the copywriting and the core of the plot are ready-made.

"Oh, so you want me out of the mountains and as a music producer?"

Li Lao picked up the red car and ate the last black pawn with a "snap".

"What's wrong with that? If you find someone else, I'd like to ask you where the old man is. ”

When Li Lao said these very imposing words, he deliberately raised his voice, obviously imitating his grandfather.

When my grandfather was not invited to a national concert one year, he slapped the table in front of a crowd and yelled at him.

Su Chengyi wanted to laugh when he heard it, and lowered his head to endure it.

"By the way, what type of game do you want to make, Ancient Wind Fairy? Or is it an oriental fantasy? ”

"Well, the 70s detective theme, the original fantasy realistic world, the open world RPG."

Su Chengyi's set of bells and whistles obviously confused Li Lao.

He may want to ask, don't you kid know that I do Chinese style music?

But Su Chengyi smiled slyly.

"Old Li, you just promised me."

"Okay, good, the old man is talking about juvenile madness.

After writing about the national style for so many years, it's not impossible to try the new tricks that you young people like. ”

Li Lao picked up the cup and touched the lid of his cup.

"Then it's good to work together in advance.

By the way, I wish you success in your studies. Enjoy your university years.

If it goes well, it will be the most unbridled and exciting period of your life. ”
