"Dare to ask, this is the earth?"

It was a summer night, the stars were hidden, and the night was deep. Gao Ming was walking home with a shuffling step.

The house rented by Gao Ming is in the northwest corner of the community, which is slightly remote. When Gao Ming goes home, he will enter from the north gate of the community, then follow the avenue of the community, and then turn left and walk into the path in front of him.

On one side of the path are old residential buildings, and on the other side are the broken walls of the community. When the night was dark, only the remnants of the light behind it leaked in along the mottled and cracked concrete road, tearing the trees out of the shadows of teeth and claws on the ground.

Seeing that the front was about to arrive home, the groggy head had just had a little lightness, and suddenly such a voice came from the shadows.

"Excuse me, is this the Earth?"

Gao Ming was still a little confused at first, and then he reacted, I'll go, it's really overtime and confused. This is not the earth, is it somewhere?

After many years of wandering, Gao Ming is still a little wary of this world. Gao Ming quickly made a judgment, and in the middle of the night, he intercepted people in the middle of the road and asked this kind of question, either because there was a problem with his head, or because he had a problem with his moral and legal cultivation, in short, there must be a problem.

When Gao Ming walks at night, he will try to follow the light as much as possible. On the one hand, it is to see the road under your feet, and on the other hand, it is to better notice the surrounding environment, try to use all your senses, grasp all the surrounding environment, and be ready to deal with unexpected situations at any time.

It's not that I'm nervous, it's just a little more wary of the outside world. Therefore, he never walks with headphones, never walks with his head down, even if he just plays some music to strengthen his courage, Gao Ming will feel that it will interfere with his control of the surrounding environment.

After hearing the question, Gao Ming was frightened, and quickly took a step back with his right foot, raised his left hand slightly, and stood on his side on guard, no longer moving forward. At this time, Gao Ming noticed that in the shadow in front of him, there was an even thicker black shadow. It looks like a young man of medium build.

The shadow casually walked up to Gao Ming and stood still. Gao Ming looked through the dim light, is he a Taoist?

With long hair and a green coat, he is dressed as a Taoist priest in TV.

At first sight, it feels very refreshing, and at the same time surprised by the young and handsome of the other party, and the overall temperament is gentle and retro, as if coming out of the ancient rhyme of ink painting.

The influence of one's temperament on other people is actually very large. The feeling that this person brought to Gao Ming was that he was upright and frank.

And when the other party walks over, the distance is very good, neither too far away, but not too close to bring a sense of oppression and threat.

Gao Ming's tense body relaxed slightly, and asked with a smile, "You just asked, is this the earth?"

The man saluted with a single palm on his chest and smiled kindly, "Yes." The old Taoist priest traveled for a long time before returning to his hometown. The vicissitudes of life, I want to ask this little friend, this is the earth?"

This person is not very old, but his tone is old. The dress and demeanor are very strange, and the words are even more strange. How long have you traveled before you have reached the sea? Where have you swam, and you can't even find the earth?

"Don't worry, this is indeed the earth. ”

The richness of the world allows for a different way of life for everyone. What we think is strange is actually inescapable, and the shallowness of knowledge and the inertia of thinking are at work. It's not ridiculous to be shallow, and no one is born with it. But if we think that being different from ourselves is wrong, it is very ridiculous.

Although Gao Ming felt strange in his heart, he was not rude, but answered the long question seriously.

"Probably you can't be wrong. The Dao Chang sighed softly, turned around slowly, and glanced at the world. In fact, it is the dilapidated fence of the community, and the old six-storey building next to it......

At this moment, I don't know why Gao Ming suddenly felt a little ashamed in his heart, and felt that it should be those towering high-rise buildings that should be seen by the Dao Chief. Unfortunately, my strength is not enough.

"I just didn't expect that the change would be so big. The young Taoist was meticulously dressed, with his hands hanging down, like a straight spear, erected in the drowsy night, giving people a slightly depressed feeling. Gao Ming suddenly felt that this long man should have a thin torso, white temples, and a white beard. But in fact, he was so young and energetic, and he was inserted in the corner of this bleak dilapidated wall, which really gave Gao Ming a vague feeling.

"Is the Taoist just coming back?"

"Yes, the first hometown person I met was you, Xiaoyou. The chief laughed.

The phrase "hometown people" is quite plain, but it touches Gao Ming's heartstrings.

Gao Ming is not very old, but he has been wandering around for many years. Gao Ming never thought of going back to that empty hometown, Gao Ming thought that he should not have any concept of hometown, let alone the so-called homesickness.

However, when the Taoist chief said the word hometown, Gao Ming felt that a strange feeling quietly emerged from the softest place in his heart.

This strange Taoist looks very young, but his tone is old, and he always gives people a sense of dislocation. When I closed my eyes, I thought I was talking to an old man.

I heard that the master of the Taoist family has the ability to station, could it be that he is actually quite old?

"When did the Taoist leave home?"

"Well, that's been a while, and I can't even remember how long it was. ”

Gao Ming smiled and didn't ask any more. Breaking the casserole is not a good habit most of the time.

"Since I am fortunate to be the first person to meet the Taoist when he returns to his hometown, let me say a word: Welcome home. ”

When the chief heard this, he was quiet, he looked very happy, and nodded with a smile: "Good, good, good!"

After all, Gao Ming has been working overtime until now, although he resonates very much with the Taoist leader's feelings about returning to his hometown, and even if he is a little curious about the strangeness of this person, he is still a little tired after all, and he wants to go home and rest after a few words.

"Dao Chief, but you want to go home to find relatives and friends?"

"Alas, things are not people, relatives and friends are long gone. ”

"Uh, where is the Taoist chief's residence? Need directions?"

"The vicissitudes of life, everything is different, I'm afraid only this world is still the original world. ”

That long sigh vigorously, but it made Gao Ming dumbfounded. Gao Ming just wanted to say goodbye to the Taoist and go home to sleep, he was very tired working overtime, and the most important thing was that he was very tired when he was working overtime.

So, now the question is, how to say goodbye to this Taoist chief who has been away from his hometown for many years and returned to his hometown without losing his manner, and at the same time not let the Taoist feel that his hometown is too unfamiliar and indifferent?

It's no wonder that Gao Ming's question is long, he really doesn't have that emotional intelligence.

Since I was a child, I didn't know who my parents were, and I never knew how to get along with each other. I've been alone most of the time, and I finally found someone who lit up the whole world, but it seems that I've used up all my luck, and he's hopelessly stupid and always makes people angry.

Sometimes I think, maybe, my loneliness is actually a kind of life. The ethereal ability of emotional intelligence is probably difficult to obtain in this life.

But it doesn't feel good to throw the Taoist chief down like this, and listening to what the Taoist chief just said, it seems that there is nowhere to go.

Gao Ming asked hesitantly and tentatively, "Why don't you go to my house for one night?"

The Taoist chief was stunned when he heard this, which made Gao Ming feel a little panicked, feeling that he had said the wrong thing.

Gao Ming hurriedly added: "If the Taoist chief doesn't dislike it." I just heard from the chief that there should be no place to live in my hometown. ”

The young Taoist leader laughed: "Fortunately, this will disturb the little friend." Xiaoyou's kindness, the old Taoist priest remembers it in his heart!"

yes, he calls himself an old Taoist priest again. Gao Ming breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Encountering embarrassment more times will not be immune to embarrassment, but will be more afraid of embarrassment, especially for the lack of self-confidence.

"It's just that the house is a little basic, and there is only a small empty room left, and the room is so small that you can put a narrow bed. I hope the Taoist chief will not dislike it. Also, I live on the fifth floor, and there is no elevator in this old building. Gao Ming pointed upstairs.

"It's okay. Little friend, hold on to me. ”

I saw that Dao Renping stretched out a hand, and Gao Ming, who didn't know why, reached out with some hesitation to help him.

But suddenly, Gao Ming only felt that his feet were empty, and the two of them actually rose from the ground!

After a gust of wind, when he came back to his senses, Gao Ming only found that he was already in mid-air.

I raised my eyes, but saw the old building hitting me head-on.

Yes, Gao Ming never thought that one day, he would really go to heaven......
