The sea is a place that many people yearn for and awe, yearn for its mysterious change from shallow to deep, and awe of its unfathomable depth.

In the summer, there are often children who run all the way to the beach, pick up a few beautiful shells or conchs, and happily put them to their ears to listen carefully, but Xu Changan never envies them.

Because he knows that the sea is just outside the city, although it is far away, as long as his legs are willing to move, he will always go to the seemingly calm sea and pick up some things he likes.

If you don't dare to go, you can't blame others, and there is no reason to envy them.

Now he dared, so here he came.

The boy knew that the sea would eat people, and the adults deliberately said it to scare children, but he also knew that the sea really ate people.

When the fishing boat is about to go to sea, it will always burn incense and pray for good fortune, and the weather must not deviate in the slightest, sometimes it will return with a full load, and sometimes it will never come back.

For example, Yu Ming's father has not come back until now.

Every time a boat went to sea in the city, the relatives of the boy's family did not want to gain much, but only hoped for a safe return.

Xu Changan's small net naturally didn't dare to come to this sea to try the depth. But it wasn't until I saw the sea in the distance that I had the idea of catching a net in this sea.

The two of them are still far away, although there is no obstruction around, but the vision is not wide, looking up only the gray sky and those endless rain, and the spectacular picture of the Lubei River flowing into the sea.

The salty smell brought by the sea water has begun to float over, and the whirring autumn wind can't blow the black umbrella above his head, Yang Hejiu has already put away the star shattered crossbody again, and holds the umbrella in his left hand instead, and water droplets fall on his forehead from time to time, Xu Changan knows that it is not rain, it should be sweat.

Yang Hejiu's left hand holding the umbrella was already trembling slightly, and his breathing became a little heavy.

Xu Changan was not surprised by these, he had experienced that kind of rough war, if he did not have the slightest fatigue, it would really be surprising, and asked softly: "Are you okay?"

Yang Hejiu shook his head slightly, raised the sleeve of his right hand and gently wiped the sweat on his forehead and returned: "It's okay." ”

Walking closer with Xu Changan on his back, the sea in front of him was no longer calm, and the sky in the distance was connected with the sea, not as blue as he imagined, just violent gray and black clouds that seemed to float on the sea.

The occasional flash of white, which was lightning and thunder, only made the picture look even more terrifying.

Thick thunder and lightning kept hitting the sea in the distance, showing teeth and claws like dragons getting water.

At the end of the view, the rain seemed to be pumped out of the sea and then fell closer, and this spectacular scenery could not help but make the young man feel shocked.

The seagulls and petrels struggled to flap their rain-soaked wings over the chasing waves, which looked extremely embarrassed, but their harvest was also quite rich.

There is a lot of autumn water in the sand under your feet, and there is a characteristic grinding sound when you go down, but it is not as deep as the silt.

The surging waves on the shore mixed with the wind and rain slapped fiercely on the shore, as if to drive the two away, and as if it was a gift to the boy.

After a long time, the tide was unwilling to recede, leaving behind patches of lively fish, shrimp and shells, these creatures abandoned by the sea, which were the favorite rewards of those children.

There were several dilapidated fishing boats parked around, and from the scars of those fishing boats, Xu Changan could roughly imagine what those seemingly strong men in this sea had experienced.

The sea can abandon even those aquatic sea creatures, let alone foreign invaders such as humans.

"If it hadn't happened, I don't think I would have dared to come here for the rest of my life. ”

Yang Hejiu thought about it carefully, gently bent down and picked up a beautiful shell and said, "Actually, the sea is not like this every day. ”

Xu Changan gently stretched out his hand to take the shell, looked at it carefully, nodded and said, "I just want to take a look." ”

The two stopped talking, Xu Changan only looked at the sea and sky in the distance, but Yang Hejiu turned his head to stare at the picture of entering the sea not far away, stunned.

The young man came back to his senses, followed Yang Hejiu's gaze, and explained softly: "The name of this sea is the sea, and I think it should be that the predecessors took this name at random in order to be lazy. The name of that river is Lubei River, and I used to know where it came from and where it was going, but now it seems that it always has to enter the sea. ”

The two of them were a little closer to the river.

The section of the river where the boy usually went fishing outside the city was only in the middle and lower reaches, and the water flow was slightly mild, and the water quality was extremely beautiful. It is not as turbulent as the estuary, and it seems impatient.

The Lubei River, which winds for thousands of miles, after the accumulation of rainwater in the upper and middle reaches, finally flows here into an ocean, but when it flows into the sea, it is ruthlessly swallowed by the waves, and he forms the sea water when it enters the sea, which is only one of the hundreds of millions of water droplets.

The raging river mixed with wind and rain flowed into the sea, and a boat-swallowing fish that was washed up to the mouth of the sea by the flowing water struggled frantically against the current.

Obviously, the future is convenient and the sea and the sky are the same, as long as you give up resistance, you can leap with it.

But the fish didn't seem to want to go to the sea full of freedom at all, but was willing to struggle at the mouth of the sea, Xu Changan didn't know how long he could hold on, and the fish didn't know how long he could hold on.

The young man looked at the fish and was a little puzzled, how to choose should not be difficult compared to the abundant resources of the sea, so why did he have to support it so hard?

Yang Hejiu sensed the young man's doubts and explained softly: "This fish should be a freshwater fish. ”

Xu Changan nodded thoughtfully, and then said with a wry smile: "The fate of this fish is really like me, it was washed away by the river to the estuary, but I found that I couldn't swim to the sea, and the most tragic thing is that I can't turn back." ”

Yang Hejiu didn't know how to answer this sentence, because the experience of that fish could indeed be regarded as an allusion to the young man in the past two days, maybe he shouldn't have gone to Xicheng with him, and after a long time, he bowed his head with some self-reproach and said, "I'm sorry." ”

Xu Changan shook his head and said very seriously: "I don't blame you, if it weren't for you, many of us wouldn't be able to live, thanks to you." ”

"But you are not among those people. I can't help you. ”

Xu Changan smiled slightly, there was no dissatisfaction, and it was impossible to blame Yang Hejiu. I just felt that the young man who was carrying him was too sincere, "It's okay, the girl in red told me that no matter what, she will die, so I took this sentence as a comfort." ”

Looking at the big fish struggling on the verge of death but unable to change the slightest, Xu Changan suddenly felt that he should confess some last words, and choked up and said: "If I die, if you can meet it when you return to the capital, you must help me ask the name of the girl in red, and also, when you see my father, you must also help me ask him what kind of business he is going to talk about." ”

Yang Hejiu just nodded slightly, not knowing how to comfort him.

Xu Changan raised his sleeve and wiped his tears, and the two then looked at the fish.

Suddenly, the two of them remembered at the same time the unwanted words hanging on the west wall of Liu Chunsheng's room.

Thinking of the elegant and gentle young man, looking at the fish, Xu Changan said to himself with some distress: "It turns out that I am not the only one who is struggling to support, many people are also struggling on the edge of this sea. ”

Some people store fields, some people plant grass, some people enter the sea, some people guard the edge of the pond, the grass cannot store fields, and the pond water cannot enter the sea. They live in the same world, but their lives have never been connected, and they stick to the small world that only belongs to them.

Yang Hejiu asked, "Why did you want him to stay in your courtyard first?" ”

"I don't know if I'll ever make it back alive, but I want to see him the first time I get home. ”

Yang Hejiu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

After a long time, the big fish was finally exhausted, and was frantically washed into the sea by the flowing water with reluctance and reluctance.

The boy was already in despair, he knew that his fate was like that fish, but he didn't know how long he could hold on.

The pain in his body made him can't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and he struggled to squeeze out a smile and said, "It seems to have soiled your clothes." ”

Yang Hejiu frowned slightly, "It's okay." ”

In the next moment, the rain gradually stopped, the thunder gradually subsided, the dark clouds began to disperse, and the howling autumn wind turned into a cool sea breeze, which was no longer so cold.

It was still pitch black around, because it was already night, and Yang Hejiu began to put away the black umbrella.

As Yang Hejiu said, the sea is not like this every day, at least the sea is very calm now, and it is no longer as restless as before.

The sea is hidden in this night, like a child who has made a mistake, and it is far away.

Xu Changan looked back and was stunned. It was as if his eyes had seen the blue, no storm, no unfathomable, only tranquility, but the scenery was too far away for his eyes to see, but his feet could not walk there.

The azure soon turned to silver again, like a whitebait jumping happily on the surface of the sea, revealing its scales.

The white moonlight slowly rose from the end of the sea level, illuminating the young man's eyes and the sea.

The night is shrouded like a light veil, the moonlight is like fine wine, and the young man who has never touched half a drop of wine will be drunk in this moonlit night, as if he is intoxicated.

The stars poked their heads out, their eyes resting on Yang Hejiu's broken star, and they seemed to be blinking their eyes with some curiosity.

And the big fish that entered the sea jumped in the gentle moonlight, danced in the calm sea, and splashed in patches, and the joy was indescribable.

It was only at this time that Xu Changan saw the fish clearly. When the fishing boats returned to the city, the boy had seen the fish they had caught, so he was no stranger to the species of fish.

Xu Changan smiled and said: "In fact, not all fish can't enter the sea. ”

Yang Hejiu frowned slightly, not understanding what the young man meant by this.

The fish that is unwilling to enter the sea is not unable to enter the sea, nor is he afraid to face the depth and fury of the sea, let alone the unknown risks, because he is born proud.

The reluctance to enter the sea may just be because he doesn't want to leave the place where he grew up, or because he is reluctant to let go of his companions.

The moonlight was bright, and in the moonlight was a sturgeon.

He should have belonged to the sea!
