Chapter 15 15. Nightmare

In Huang Chang's life, she has never been so hesitant and fearful as she is today. Even if her father locked her in a "haunted house" back then, even if she decided to risk the world's disgrace and marry Zhuo Wen, she had never been so helpless. She has always decided that one thing must be done hard, and she will not regret it after doing it, but this time, she was at a loss. The scene at Huang Kun's wedding was shown over and over again in front of her eyes like a movie, making her She understood more and more moment by moment: she saved the big traitor Huang Jiafeng, but caused two anti-Japanese elements to suffer, and she caused trouble!At the same time, what made her feel colder from the bottom of her heart was that she forced herself to face up to Zhuowen's identity for the first time, and the result of facing up to it made her feel even more uneasy and unbearable.

It's not that she didn't know Zhuo Wen's status in the eyes of the Wang government and the Japanese, but apart from the assassination, there was nothing real to draw her attention to it. I remember one time when Zhuo Wen was chatting, he mentioned that he had gone to Japan to attend a grand ceremony as the spokesperson of Wang Jingwei. Huang Chang asked him to tell some stories about Fusang, but Zhuo Wen seemed rather unwilling to mention the personnel affairs there, and occasionally said a few words, Most of them are some lace jokes, such as: "Li Kui, the black whirlwind, likes to call people a 'bird man', and there is a consultant from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Japan who is really a bird man." Huang Chang was puzzled.Zhuo Wen said: "The consultant's name is 'Bai Niao Min Fu', 'husband' means 'human', but Bai Niao Min Fu is a bird man?" Huang Chang laughed out loud.

Zhuo Wen didn't have a good impression of the Japanese, but he respected Wang Jingwei very much, and mentioned that he was always respected as "Mr. Wang".This was what Huang Chang didn't like to hear the most.And Zhuo Wen also knew it, so he rarely mentioned work matters. But now, now, Huang Chang could no longer ignore these minor issues, or in other words, it was a major issue. After leaving Huang's house, she didn't go back to "Shui Wuyou", but went straight to Ke Yi.As soon as they met, they asked straight to the point: "Mr. Ke, do you think Zhuo Wen is a traitor?"

Ke Yi did not ignore Huang Chang's change of address to Cai Zhuowen. He noticed the confusion and contradictions of this talented woman of his nephew's generation, and knew it was time for a deep talk.This is a good opportunity to win over her. He sat down and said earnestly: "Whether he is a traitor or not depends on his own actions. He is an official of the Wang government, and Wang Jingwei is pro-Japanese. Cai Zhuowen is in a high position, so it is impossible Don't do things that violate the conscience. In this sense, he is a traitor and the public enemy of all Chinese people with a conscience and a sense of justice. Unless he is willing to turn his back on the dark and use his identity to do more to benefit the country National things..."

"Just like the last time I rescued you from prison?" Huang Chang eagerly interrupted Ke Yi, with such an anxious expression on her face that she was almost begging, as if Ke Yi could be sure if she nodded her head. Cai Zhuowen's Chinese identity, otherwise, would not make her feel at ease. Ke Yi suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy. He knew that every word he said today might affect Huang Chang's life.He looked at her and worded his words more carefully: "I want to thank Mr. Cai very much for what happened last time, but he saved me not because he agreed to resist the Japanese, but because he wanted to please your aunt and for you. This is the same principle. It's two different things."

"However, I talked to Zhuo Wen. He is a farmer's child from a poor background. He used to hold a hoe, but now he holds a pen, but he has never held a gun. He can't even shoot, and he has never killed anyone." "Having never killed someone with his own hands doesn't mean he hasn't done bad things." Ke Yi tried to explain the subtleties of politics and the concept of "cultural traitor" to Huang Chang in a simple way. "Have you ever heard a story: It is said that there was a quack doctor who put many people to death. After his own death, he was sent to the seventeenth hell. He cried in despair, thinking that this was the worst punishment. , but he heard even louder crying from below. He was surprised and asked: "Is there anyone else?" Someone replied: "Yes, I am a private school teacher, but I don't have much knowledge. The king of Hades said that I misunderstood others." My son, put me in the 18th level of hell.' The quack doctor suddenly realized that it is more abhorrent to mislead your son than quack doctor to kill someone."

Huang Chang lowered her head, she is a smart person, of course she understands what Ke Yi is referring to, that although Cai Zhuowen did not shoot and kill, but he ruled the cultural propaganda, mastered the mouthpiece, and fooled the people, the crime is far worse than murder .But as a wife, she always believed that her husband had some difficulties. He jumped over the Dragon Gate as a farmer and finally earned fame, but he happened to catch up with the troubled times, so he drifted with the crowd and became an official of the Wang government. He can't help himself, but he is just a servant, what can he do?

Seeing that Huang Chang didn't speak, Ke Yi knew that she was touched, and further analyzed: "Cai Zhuowen was born in poverty and had no one to rely on, but he can achieve such a prominent position today because of his outstanding talent. But he has such a good talent." Talent is not used to serve the country, but to opportunistically and help the tyrant. This is unwise. He is so smart, it is impossible not to see the essence of the fact that the Wang government is a traitor government, but he still works for his subordinates and works for the tiger. Such a person only looks at the front How can a person who disregards national interests and national interests be approved? No matter how standard a gentleman's etiquette is, he can't cover up his humbleness. Even small traders who boycott Japanese goods live with principles and dignity better than him."

Huang Chang was very offended.It's this unadmirable person who saved your life not long ago.Ke Yi always likes to persuade people to fight against Japan, but the fight against Japan is about capital, just like he persuaded himself to stop writing and stop writing screenplays after the victory of the War of Resistance. So during this period, tell her what to eat and wear, and what to give to her mother What about healing?He himself is a Communist Party, so he wants to develop everyone to be a Communist Party, but in this world, even though there are frequent wars and factions, there must always be ordinary people who want to live ordinary lives. Resist Japan, go to revolution.She doesn't want her husband to be a hero, but she doesn't want him to be a traitor either, she just needs to know that he is basically a good person.

But how does one qualify as a "basically good person"?She didn't know anymore.There are many useless good people, but Cai Zhuowen is not an ordinary useless person, he is an official, but this is not up to him, as long as he has not taken the initiative to do any bad things.He also saved Ke Yi. If he can save Ke Yi, he can save more Chinese people.A person who saves good people is of course a good person. Thinking of saving people, she immediately thought of the two anti-Japanese elements who were implicated by her today.Suddenly she couldn't sit still, she stood up and took the handbag and said she wanted to leave.

Seeing her talking and suddenly leaving, Ke Yi thought he had offended her, so he hurriedly stopped her: "Huang Chang, I said all this for your own good." "I know." "Then don't associate with Cai anymore, he is not a good person..." "But he is my husband." Huang Chang interrupted, and suddenly stopped doing nothing and kept going, announcing plainly, "Mr. Ke, we are already married, please bless me." Ke Yi was stunned, momentarily shocked and speechless.The yellow dress in his eyes suddenly turned into a voluptuous snake. It was Bai Suzhen before closing the pagoda. Helpless persistence, and painful persistence. However, after a while, she returned to her charming and charming Huang Chang, her eyes were crystal clear, and she smiled calmly: "I know what you are going to say, but I am not afraid. I promised him that for him, I will press down on Leifeng!" I am also willing to be under the tower. If I really have to be punished, I am willing to accompany him to hell." In order to meet Huang Chang conveniently, Cai Zhuowen booked a room in the International Hotel.On this day, because Huang Chang was eager to see Zhuo Wen, he couldn't wait for the phone call, so he took the key and went into the house, waiting there to wait. At first, she was worried that a single woman like herself would be too conspicuous living in a hotel, but the waiters in the Shanghai Grand Hotel were all well-trained, and they were required to make sure that no matter how loud the guests were, they would not be able to hear them, and no matter how loud their jokes were, they would not be heard. I can’t laugh anymore, and my wife can’t remember any more. Every morning and evening, I go in and out of Huangshang’s room, cleaning or delivering food and drinks. There is always no other smile on my face except for the habitual smile. Two expressions.Only then did Huang Chang feel relieved and believed Zhuo Wen's explanation that renting a hotel was safer than renting a private house: it was comfortable, convenient, and had greater freedom of movement. The gate of the hotel seems to have some kind of magic power. The world’s wars, troubles, poverty, toil, running around, strife...all the unhappy and noble things stop at the gate of the hotel. Those who can enter the gate are the most in Shanghai. Beautiful things: magnificent marble walls, plush carpets full of flowers, seasonal flowers, red wine and champagne, beauty and wealth, and the most thoughtful and attentive services.It is no wonder that many foreigners like to live in hotels for many years and enjoy themselves. As long as they can pay the rent for a day, they can be gods for a day.When the money in the pocket is exhausted, and you become a beggar in a blink of an eye, that is already a matter outside the hotel.The people in the hotel door are still invisible.Because the sound of music drowns out all crying.No matter how pale the face is under the neon lights, it is still charming. The eyes of women are shining, while the man's demeanor is first-class. Waiting until the evening of the third day, Huang Chang finally received a call from Jiaxiu, saying that Zhuo Wen had called "Shui Wuyou Ju". He heard that Huang Chang had already checked into the hotel, and he promised to come over as soon as possible so that she would not go away. With hope in my heart, I am more anxious than having no news at all two days ago.Huang Chang was distraught, leaned on the bed and watched for a while, seeing people rowing boats in the Grand View Garden for fun, Daiyu commented on the section "Let the residual lotus stay to listen to the sound of the rain", thinking of her boating with Zhuo Wen on the West Lake, she became more and more impulsive Irritated and restless, I had to close the book and sit in front of the window and open the curtain to look out, hoping to see Zhuo Wen as soon as possible. As the sun sets, it looks like a huge round drop of blood, about to drip, with a faint fishy smell.There was a warm and sweet scent in the wind. It was a new batch of butter bread baked in the bakery downstairs next door. The sales lady at the delivery window was plump and kind, like a freshly fermented bread. There was a kind of warmth in her smile. Soft taste.Under the shade of the trees, there are a few rickshaws resting. The driver is lying on the car, picking his teeth in boredom, while commenting on the passing people, with the glass revolving door of the International Hotel in the corner of his eye, ready to grab business at any time.The male waiters at the door, wearing uniforms with silver buttons and blue tassels, are tall and handsome, running back and forth "Hello, Hello" to pull the doors for the guests with cars. Looking down from upstairs, the bowing angle is just a standard question mark. The pair of black leather shoes on the feet is the round head under the question mark.The car door opened, and a pair of leather shoes that were darker and brighter than the period of the question mark came in. They were matched with black suit trousers, a long black coat, and a dark gray checked tie, which made the face look like ancient jade and the sideburns green , not Cai Zhuowen but who? Huang Chang was overjoyed, his heart jumped up crazily for no reason, and he stood up and was about to run downstairs. Suddenly thinking of Zhuo Wen's displeasure, he restrained himself quickly, and sat in front of the vanity mirror to check whether the makeup was too much. Thick, with or without hair. Then the door lock clicked, and Zhuo Wen had already entered.Huang Chang had prepared thousands of words to rush to talk to him, waiting to meet him, but suddenly said nothing, just staring at him hungrily, as if he hadn't seen him for a long time, and almost forgot his appearance, now he wants to It seemed as if he could see him clearly. Then, the two couldn't help but hugged each other tightly, wishing that they would never be separated forever. In Zhuo Wen's arms, Huang Chang couldn't help feeling the urge to cry again. There was a kind of pain that came out from the deepest part of her heart, as if what she embraced was only herself. He was originally a part of her. Mingzhong was accidentally lost, and now he has found it again. According to myths, when God created man, he originally had two faces, four arms and four legs, but because man was too powerful, he had to split man in half.So people have been looking for and looking for their other half since they entered the world, but no one can really find it. How lucky I was to find him in the world of mortals!But how unfortunate they are to meet in troubled times!In troubled times, where should they be? Huang Chang trembled, and a voice came out from under Zhuo Wen's coat: "Zhuowen, I did something wrong." Zhuo Wen stroked Huang Chang's beautiful hair, and said softly: "I already know everything about you, you have done a good job and are very brave." Huang Chang raised his head in astonishment, tears streaming down his face: "No, I was really wrong this time, I killed those two people, they will die, my uncle will not let them go. Zhuo Wen, you Help me, you have to save them, otherwise, my conscience will be disturbed for the rest of my life." Zhuo Wen was stunned, never thinking that Huang Chang was so eager to see him to make such a request.He supported Huang Chang's shoulders, as if he wanted to look into the depths of her eyes.She saved Huang Jiafeng, but regretted it, and wanted to come back to save the anti-Japanese elements.Although Huang Chang didn't explain the reason for such backlash, he already understood everything, understood her love and passion, as well as her pain and anguish. He walked to the window, glanced downstairs, and made sure there was no suspicious person, then calmly lit a cigarette, and said in a deep thought, "Do you know who those two are?" "I don't know, are you always a good person?" "How do you know they are good people? They are going to kill your uncle, and you still say they are good people?" "Because I know that my uncle is a bad person. If they want to kill my uncle, they must be good people. And I heard from them that they want to avenge the brothers in the towel factory. Since they are not fighting for themselves, but for justice, naturally He should be a hero. But..." Huang Chang lowered her head, "I have harmed them." She suddenly raised her head again, "Zhuowen, I have harmed a good person, am I not a bad person?" Zhuo Wen sighed: "Ah Chang, this is not acting in a movie. The good guys and the bad guys can be so clearly distinguished." He noticed the large thread-bound book upside down on the dressing table, how out of tune with the current troubled times. At such a time, Huang Chang is probably the only one who can hide in a big hotel and think about rescuing the assassin while reading ancient books bound in thread, right?Huang Chang is extremely clever in literature, but ignorant of the sophistication of the world, but her self-blame and her guilt are so real and profound, as if a person has made a cocoon by himself, and is struggling against that cocoon. Seeing her struggling, how could she not help her? The next day was cloudy, Zhuo Wen went out early in the morning, Huang Chang wanted to sleep for a while, but couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, so he thought it better to go to Huang's mansion first to find out the wind.After making up his mind, he prepared several gifts and took a car to see Huang Jiafeng.The housekeeper said with a look of embarrassment: "The master lives in the big study, and just fell asleep. I'm afraid he hasn't woken up now. Why don't I go ask?" Huang Chang didn't intend to visit the sick, so he hurriedly stopped and said, "No, since Uncle is recuperating, it's better not to disturb me. I'll just go and sit in Uncle's room." Just as he sat down in the upper room, Huang Zhong and Huang Di had already received a report from his servants and came in hand in hand.Huang Shang greeted Huang Li first, and asked a few words about Huang Jiafeng's condition, while secretly looking at his younger brother, seeing his unhappy face, he couldn't help being surprised, but he didn't want to ask. Huang Lishi sighed and said: "Your uncle has been doing business carefully all these years, and he has not offended anyone. Who is this who is so hard on him and chooses to kill her father on Kun'er's big gift? These days, He changed the big study into a ward, where he took injections and medicines, and even I didn’t know much about it, so only Dr. Lin and Ms. Han were left there to take care of me. Oh, why doesn’t he understand my heart? Although Said that the butler came to report the news three times a day, but I couldn't see him, and I couldn't let go. These days, I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't sleep, I'm afraid that his illness is not cured, I have to go first ’” said and started to cry. Huang Chang hurriedly persuaded: "Don't be so fast, auntie. Uncle doesn't want you to serve because he is sympathetic to you and is afraid that you will work hard. Since Dr. Lin and Nurse Han are helping, what else can auntie worry about? Uncle Fu Daming Big, it will be fine in a few days." Huang Lishi wiped her tears and said: "Speaking of this blessing and fate, A Chang, this time I have to thank you. When your uncle is well, I must give you a big gift. Thank you for your life-saving grace-you are the one who saved my life. It killed my family!" Huang Chang inevitably said a few more polite words, and asked casually, "I don't know what the two assassin uncles plan to do?" Huang Li gritted her teeth and said, "I'm still talking about those two murderers. I wish I could bite off a piece of their flesh. Look carefully, I can't spare them anymore! They haven't said a word after being locked up for two days. But I Don't be afraid, I have a lot of time to spend with them, the security captain has already assured me that even if it is a steel mouth and copper teeth, I have to pry it open, and sooner or later I will tell him who the master is!" Huang Chang was secretly startled when he heard this, and after rambling a few words, he hurriedly left with the excuse that the sky was cloudy because he was afraid of rain. Huang Di managed to see his sister once, but he was completely ignored, and inevitably he had to feel sorry for himself again.Huang Zhong hurriedly dragged him to his own room in the small garden, comforted him, whispered tenderly, coaxed him for a long time, and then he gradually recovered.Suddenly there was a "bang" outside, but it was raining.The Yellow Emperor was startled and said: "It's raining! Brother, I went to the hospital to get medicine for my uncle. I don't know if I've come back. Don't catch up with the rain." Huang Zhong felt very upset, and said sourly: "Of course, Dad has a driver to drive him there. What do you want to worry about?" As if talking to himself, "Dad is also very strange, and he is surprisingly kind to this Miss Han. Never Seeing him treat his servants with such care." Huang Di was not happy: "Ke Di is not a servant." Huang Zhong looked at him without speaking, but after a while, tears started to drip from his eyes. Huang Di was irritated: "Why are you crying? What did I say wrong?" Huang Zhong choked with sobs: "My mother told me yesterday that the tailor shop will come to measure me in the next two days." Huang Di didn't know how to comfort him, so he stood under the eaves with his hands in his sleeves, and stretched out one foot to step on the rainwater in the stone pit on the steps, causing the water to splash.In front of his house is a small pond ten feet square, in which lotus flowers are planted as usual, and naturally all of them are withered at this time, and it is precisely for the saying "Leave the residual lotus to listen to the sound of the rain", so the lotus stalks and lotus leaves are left on purpose. Except, now that the rain is dripping down, there is not a single bit of poetry, but it is full of desolation and desolation.Because the lotus pond was thought of, it was natural, and Huang Zhong made the wedding dress to think of Baoyu's emotion in lamenting the wrong marriage in the Spring Festival at the Ouxiang Pavilion.Therefore, he said in a deep voice: "The autumn wind in the pond was cold all night, blowing away the lotus and red jade shadows. Polygonum flowers and water chestnut leaves are so sad, heavy dew and heavy frost press the slender stalks. I don't hear the sound of playing chess in the eternal day, and the swallow mud stains the chessboard. The ancients Say goodbye to pity your friends, let me be a brother and sister now." Huang Zhongchu was still sentimental when he heard the words "Unbearable Sadness", but when he heard the words "Brotherhood", he threw his hands angrily and said: "Read! Read! Read! I'm so stunned, you I only know how to recite poems." She covered her face and ran away crying. Looking at her back, Huang Di closed the door emotionally, fell on the bed, thought about Huang Zhong for a while, and then Kedi for a while, sat up again, looked out the window and continued to read: "Autumn flowers are bleak and autumn grass Yellow, Geng Geng. Autumn lights are long. Autumn nights are long. I feel that the autumn window is endless, and the autumn rain can help the desolation. How fast the autumn wind and rain come, and the autumn window is startled. Tears Candle..." Desolately, I memorized Lin Daiyu's "Autumn Window and Rainy Night" all the way until "I don't know when the wind and rain will stop, but the window screen has been wet with tears".The wind and rain are still going on, but the tears have already spilled on the window screen. As soon as Huang Chang returned to the hotel, the rain began to fall, pattering on the window, crying like complaining.Huang Chang stood and lay down, restless, so he had to read it again. Halfway through, tears rolled down the side of his face, and his heart felt cool. Finally, when Zhuo Wen came back, he was covered in cold air, his coat was soaked in rain, shining against the light, and the first sentence he said was: "Ah Chang, please forget about this matter, don't think about it anymore. " Huang Chang waited bitterly for so long, but he was disappointed when he heard such a sentence, and asked, "Why?" "No reason. Things have already happened, and in what direction they are going, it is not your power to interfere. Let's just pretend it never happened, okay?" "Impossible." Huang Chang got angry and said angrily, "I haven't been able to eat or sleep well for the past two days. As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw those two assassins standing in front of me, bleeding. I I went to Huang's house in the afternoon. Their methods are so hot. If I don't save those two people, they will be tortured to death by my uncle. Zhuo Wen, I don't want to harm people. It's two lives. I can't harm them. You If you don't save them, I'll save them!" Saying that, he stood up and rushed out.This movement woke me up, but it was a dream. Huang Chang sighed, staring at the rain outside in a daze.The door of the room opened silently, and when it opened, Zhuo Wen stood there dripping wet, calling miserably: "A-Shang." Huang Shang hurriedly got up to meet him, and while taking off his coat, said: "I just dreamed See you..." Before he finished speaking, he found that Zhuo Wen's wet body was not rain, but blood. Blood, bright red, dripping, gurgled out from Zhuo Wen's face and body, like rainwater.Huang Chang was shocked, hugged and cried, "Zhuowen, what's wrong with you? Why is there so much blood?" Zhuo Wen looked at her with empty eyes, and smiled bitterly: "Just now I went to Huang's house to save someone, but I was injured. I won't live long..." "No!" Huang Chang yelled sadly, waking himself up again. Another dream! Huang Chang was covered in cold sweat, grabbed a pillow and hugged him tightly, crying and asking himself: "What should I do? What should I do?" Suddenly someone shook her shoulder and called: "A Chang, wake up, wake up, what did you dream about?" Huang Chang opened his eyes bewilderedly, and saw Zhuo Wen standing bent over in front of the bed, with water dripping from the tip of his hair.She was in a daze, knowing that the "waking up" just now was actually a dream, just waking up from a dream within another dream.Just now, is he awake now?Or walked into another dream? Zhuo Wen tried her forehead with his hand, and whispered: "You have a fever. Have you caught a cold? It's so cold, why don't you sleep with a quilt?" His hand was on her forehead, it was cold, so, isn't this a dream?Huang Chang pushed his hand away and asked in a daze, "Are you real?" Zhuo Wen sat down beside the bed: "Of course I'm real... A Chang, I've already found out the identities of those two anti-Japanese elements. One is Hu Qiang, a worker leader in a towel factory, and the other is Pei Yi. They are students of Fudan University, and they are all the anti-Japanese criminals designated by the top to arrest." Huang Chang woke up completely this time, got up quickly, and asked, "Then, have you thought about how to save them?" "Save them?" "Of course. The disaster was caused by me. Of course I have to make up for it. I must save them. As you said, there is another college student among them, and he is just a student..." "But they are also important anti-Japanese criminals, they engage in assassination!" Zhuo Wen sighed and lowered his voice, "If it is really an assassination, it's fine, and it can be blamed on personal grievances, but they gave anti-Japanese speeches in front of so many people. A hundred ears can hear clearly, which cannot be denied no matter what. How do you want me to save them?" "You are an official! You have a higher position than Huang Jiafeng. If you want to save people, there is always a way." "You think things are too simple, and you think too great of me. Don't talk about releasing those who are arrested, even if the superiors tell me to arrest the outsiders, I can't do it. You stay at home all day , After only one or two incidents, I can see the big picture. I am in the rivers and lakes. When will I not deal with these people and these things? Don’t forget, I am also their assassination target. Now you want me to save them .How to save?" "Then... I'll go. I'll go directly to Huang Jiafeng to ask for someone. I arrested him, and I want him, but he's too embarrassed not to give it." "Why are you so naive!" Zhuo Wen was angry and pitiful, "Politics is not as simple as you think. If you ask for it, Huang Jiafeng will give it to you? If he doesn't give it, can't you grab it with a gun? Isn't that the opposite? Expose the target, not only can't save people, but also trap yourself." "But you also saved Ke Yi, so nothing happened?" "That's different. Ke Yi has a bit of social status, and after all, they didn't catch Ke Yi to resist the Japanese, so I can still talk. But the Japanese are already dissatisfied. This time, the two anti-Japanese elements , It was a clear assassination, and the rumors have leaked out, and the higher-ups will soon come to the Huang family to pick up people, and if I want to save them, I have to take my life in exchange." He forced Huang Chang to come forward, "If I saved them but sacrificed myself, A-Shang, if this is the case, do you still want me to save them?" "Sacrificing you? How come?" Huang Chang panicked, she suddenly remembered the dream just now, Zhuo Wen was covered in blood all over his face, what a terrible dream.She was confused, "Zhuowen, don't let me choose, I don't understand, I don't understand." She desperately said that I don't understand, because she already understood that the so-called "hero" in her mouth was the "vital criminal" Zhuo Wen wanted to catch.People who kill bad people are good people, so what about people who catch good people?Zhuowen, who is he? ! The room was darkened layer by layer, filled with the smell of cigar smoke.The two of them stayed in the shadows, with one thought after another in their hearts, and they didn't speak for a long time.There was a wind passing by outside the window, and the air vents were whimpering strangely, like the cry of a wronged soul underground.How many souls in the wind died under Cai Zhuowen's hands? Huang Chang shuddered.It's winter again, when I first met Zhuo Wen, it was also in this season, but it was a sunny day, there was no wind, only neon lights and music.Have they only known each other for less than a year?But she felt that a lifetime had passed. He leaned against the window, standing for a long time, tall and tall, wearing a long black cloak in the room, when he was silent and motionless, he was like a bronze statue, Huang Chang even felt the coldness and mottled on the statue of patina.She remembered when she was a child, the copper censer in the old house in Beijing, in which there were bits and pieces of incense burning all the year round, but there was no warmth.When she ran in from outside the house in the winter, she looked at the starlight, but she was always fooled. She couldn't help but put her hands on the stove to keep warm. She was shivering with cold, but it was wet and clingy. , there is a sense of attachment, as if a part of the skin has been left on the surface of the copper stove—is he the incense burner now?And this time, can she seek warmth from that star incense? She was thinking in a trance like this, but he suddenly turned around, still leaning his body against the window frame, bowed his head slightly, and said in a bitter voice, "Huang Chang, one day in the future, both of our names will be the same. To be recorded in history. The difference is that you belong to the page of literature, but I belong to politics. You are an everlasting lamp being hung high, but I am crucified on a cold cross.” His words were like a prophecy, and Huang Chang couldn't help but shuddered again.
