Chapter 6 Part Three: Chapter Six

Chapter 28: Chapter Six (1) sixth time one I remembered the past again. Although it is already winter, the key animal that comes to mind is the gecko that appears in summer. Well, the not-so-flattering looking, slippery green animal that escapes really fast, plus his famous self-rescue mechanism. And before he knew the secret about the gecko's tail from teaching books or extracurricular readings, Xia Zhengyi was once swayed by it when he was five years old. One day that year, Xia Zhengyi accidentally bumped into a gecko while playing outside.The little thing immediately dropped its tail and was about to run away.Shocked by its "feat", Xia Zhengyi became anxious when he saw the gecko fleeing for his life with its bare buttocks, and ran to catch up with the tail in his palm regardless of how uncomfortable it was to hold it:

Hey, your tail! Don't you want your tail? But the gecko ignored his voice and still ran vigorously.The little boy who felt that he had to change his strategy slowly squatted on the ground, raised his hand and shouted at it: Hey, I won't chase anymore, I won't chase you anymore. Tail, I put it here, come and get it when I leave. I'm not lying to you, don't be afraid. two Zheng Yi's mother said that the house needs to be redecorated.Because at the beginning it was nothing more than simply moving the two families into one family, but the parents still felt that it would be best to find an opportunity to renovate the house.This time, Mr. Xia found a suitable contracting team, and he had just finished a project and had about two weeks of vacation, so he planned to finish it before the Chinese New Year.

"It may affect your study." It was an apology to Shengxuan. "No." Leaving home at 6:00 in the morning and arriving home at 8:00 in the evening, it can't be said that there will be any "influence" in the short time at home.It's just that the smell in the room will be heavier by then. Because it was Sunday, Xia Shengxuan remembered that Jing Ye had gone to a remedial class outside.So I didn't call her either.But it always feels weird to walk alone.So after standing on the side of the road and watching the bakery shop opposite sell the fourth one, I decided to go to the training school where the girl was to see her.

"Ah, do you want to have lunch nearby?" Jing Ye asked, rubbing his nose before he could get away from Shengxuan's sudden appearance. "Okay, let's see where to find it." Sheng Xuan said. Jing Ye blushed and said "Goodbye" to the girls in the same class who passed by, and their eyes were more entangled with Xia Shengxuan as expected.Shengxuan returned the salute calmly and looked at each other, but the girls panicked. Later, I didn't look for a restaurant to eat. Most of the people were full at noon on Sundays. If I wanted to wait in line, I would rather give up.Shengxuan asked Jing Ye if he was very hungry, Jing Ye shook his head and said that he ate breakfast very late.

"Then why don't you sit outside for a while." suggested. Speaking of "cats" and "dogs".Jing Ye quickly stated that he "likes cats". "I have observed that the pet dogs near my house are either 'hehe, I need to smell it here' or 'hehe, I need to sprinkle it here', or 'Master! Huhu! Master!'. But cats It's different, various, 'wait, I'm busy right now', or 'I'm the leader of this area, Team Leader Kim Pal', there are also things like 'hey, no pictures', and even 'haven't seen Your face, a newcomer nearby?'."

Chapter 29: Chapter Six (2) ...Jing Ye saw Xia Shengxuan stand up suddenly, and then walked to the opposite chair under her confused eyes, where a little girl about ten years old was waiting for her mother.Xia Shengxuan squatted down and said something to her, then turned back, Jing Ye raised his face and looked up at him, "Hey, what's wrong?" "I told her to close her eyes for a while." "Ah? Why?" "There are some things that are not suitable for children to read—" He rubbed Jing Ye's forehead and bent down. One kiss. three A major event on the home front is about to start.After hearing her mother mention it twice on the phone, Xia Zhengyi also decided to go home next weekend.After all, once the redecoration starts, Xia Zhengyi won't be going back for a long time.Only I got home early.At three o'clock.The two parents hadn't left work yet, and Xia Shengxuan, who was in the third year of high school, would definitely come back later.The room was so quiet that only Xia Zhengyi's shadow dragged around on the ground.After changing his shoes, he poured hot water and stood drinking in the living room, blowing on the mouth of the cup.

It was so quiet that the sound of the second hand turning could be heard. The snow has stopped outside.The sun lay low on the wall.four Seasons.Another year will pass. So when the phone rang suddenly, Zheng Yi was startled. "Hey?" There was silence over there: "... Oh, Zheng Yi, are you home already?" Xia Shengxuan's voice. "...um. What's the matter?" "I'm trying to call home, because I'm not sure if you're here." The hidden words are "I don't have your mobile phone number. A decoration engineering team will come to discuss the plan this afternoon, but my father has to work overtime temporarily, and it may be late I can only go back later, I have too many classes here."

"Shall I entertain them first?" "...Well... it will probably be here soon." "I see." As soon as he hung up the phone, he heard a soft knock on the door.Xia Zhengyi went to unscrew the handle.Perhaps it was because someone answered the door right away, the two men standing in front of Zheng Yi showed quite frightened expressions. "It's just that someone said you were coming, what a coincidence." Zheng Yi looked at the other party, "Is it you guys? Are you here to discuss the renovation?" In the future, there will be a day when "'That's the day...'" will be said in a certain tone.

Four On the day when it snowed, Xia Shengxuan who was in the middle of class was hurriedly called away by the head teacher. What would have happened if there hadn't been a phone call from myself at that time.This was Xia Shengxuan's first thought after hearing Mr. Xia tell the whole story.I can't even wave it away. "Fortunately, my life is safe... the luck of misfortune." "Have those two prisoners been caught?" Sheng Xuan asked. "The police said that according to the clues they have, it should be within a few days... It's strange," Mr. Xia frowned fiercely, "He's not an unsuspecting child, why did he take strangers this time—two people? The thief was ushered into the house?"

"..." Sheng Xuan looked at the light outside the operating room, "The right eye...is it..." "Yes, because the crystals flowed out after being pierced. The doctor said whether it will be removed depends on the specific situation." Mr. Xia pressed Shengxuan's shoulder, "Oh, I have to say hello and thank the decoration team. Foreman Xu and the others, if they hadn’t happened to arrive later, I really don’t know what would have happened.” If there is no phone call that I made at that time.Xia Zhengyi won't preconceive the wrong person. If the period in the middle is removed, it can become a sentence with real causal logic.

Fives When Xia Zhengyi returned to school, it was the third day after the first semester of senior high school started.When passing by the first two classes, some students sitting inside had already spotted him, and there was a small commotion in private.And when Zheng Yi stood in front of his class door, his appearance immediately quieted the atmosphere in the classroom. The math teacher who was standing with his back facing him didn't know what happened, and followed the eyes of the students to look at the teacher behind him strangely. the door.Then even the teacher showed a surprised expression, and immediately changed it to calm, "Oh, come in" and greeted him. The teacher at the front of the classroom finished writing on the blackboard and saw Xia Zhengyi. He was about to call out his name to remind him to concentrate, but he remembered it before he said it and stopped himself immediately. "Hey—what a tragedy." Seniors like teachers are always more worldly than those girls. The countdown has already started on the blackboard, and the college entrance examination, which was advanced to June a few years ago, is now rushing forward.After the once-a-week mock exams, there were always people with pale faces and others with happy faces. Xia Shengxuan was already numb, and every time the rankings were posted, he would just glance at them and walk over. A month ago, the head teacher found him quite worried. "Can you bear it? Family matters, and such a heavy study, can you be so busy?" The middle-aged female teacher looked at the boy in front of her with a concerned and pitiful expression, "Should I hand over the work of the monitor to others first?" Do it? Don’t get your body too busy.” Chapter 30: Chapter Six (3) "Well. I know. Thank you teacher." "What happened to your brother's eye? Did he hurt his right eye?" "...Oh...yes." Sheng Xuan hung his right hand behind his back, "I saved my eyes, but my eyesight was severely damaged, and now... I can only feel a blurred image of light." The teacher immediately showed a sympathetic face, and the sigh similar to "there will be many obstacles in the future to enter the university" is also completely in line with the psychology of a class teacher in the third year of high school. Unbeknownst to his teachers, the boy paused for a long time before leaving the office and walking up the stairs to the classroom.Standing there not knowing how to step up.The steps more than ten centimeters high cannot be climbed. The strength is still in the body, but how to control the body is blank for a moment as if forgotten. six Xia Shengxuan let out a long sigh of relief when he got the final news that he was sure that he could be admitted safely without having to go through the college entrance examination in June.The envious eyes of other students in the class and the joy of the teacher were slightly blocked. In the week that followed, Xia Shengxuan was labeled as a full-time assistant by the teacher because of the lack of academic pressure, and received a bunch of messy tasks.Just filling in the transcription statistics form filled a folder, and even the work that was not in the class gradually fell on the shoulders. "Social practice in the first year of high school... Do I want to go too?" "It's just following the team. As a teacher, I still worry about the lack of manpower and safety issues, so this time several high school seniors like you who have been escorted came to help." "Where are they going this time?" Immediately saw the destination written below, "Jingshui County...?" "That's right, it's the one in another county, 'surrounded by mountains'." The teacher said, "The living conditions are relatively backward, so this time the freshmen in senior high school should learn about the situation and endure hardships." "……Ok." "Oh, by the way, I heard that you have a younger brother who is also in the first year of high school? Then put you in his class." The teacher said considerately, "It's easy to take care of the two brothers together." Before departure, Xia Zhengyi went home to prepare his luggage.Xia Shengxuan was also there that day.Zheng Yi had already heard the news that he would follow his class. Zhengyi's mother was still worried about her son's eyes, but she couldn't bear to say it clearly, so she had to repeat "Isn't it okay if you don't participate?"Zheng Yi knelt on the ground and stuffed the clothes into the bag while saying "nothing", "no more", "I know", and then asked "give me the toothbrush". At this time, Xia Shengxuan, who was by the bathroom door, heard it, and took out the toothbrush that Zheng Yi left at home and walked to him. Zheng Yi took it over. "Then you just use one tube of toothpaste." Zheng Yi's mother said, "There's no need to bring two." seven The whole social practice lasted for four days, and the students were arranged to stay in the homes of local residents, and then organized collective activities such as visiting schools or agricultural work.After a few days, all of them were tanned and dirty, or wiped their tears frequently. Some of them were homesick, and some of them felt sympathetic to the local people after they really came to "experience".Several teachers kept saying, "Children nowadays seem to be much more difficult to manage than in previous years, but they are actually pretty good", implying that they are delighted that this trip has achieved fruitful results. I was leaving in the afternoon of the last day, and the bus was waiting neatly at the intersection. "Let's take that car cushion, so we don't have to go with the same class." He pointed out to Shengxuan the medium-sized bus parked at the end of the convoy. "Understood." Shengxuan nodded, went to throw his luggage into the new car. Seeing his action, Xia Zhengyi also guessed that Shengxuan would not return with his shift, and he threw the big bag of tea in his hand back and forth alternately. Then he walked towards Shengxuan. "You can take this tea and give it to my mother. If I don't go back, it's useless to keep it." Sheng Xuan received it.The scarlet letters printed on the plastic bag have worn off a bit, but the tea leaves still ooze out pleasantly. "When you arrive at school, remember to call home to report that you are safe." Shengxuan said. Zheng Yi took out his mobile phone while answering, and finally he asked Sheng Xuan: "What's your number." "Eh?" "Number." The boy raised his eyes. In Xia Zhengyi's compartment, which was about 50 minutes away from Shengxuan's bus, more than forty students who wrote "Hurry up and surf the Internet (eat meat, take a bath, sleep)" on their faces were rubbed with anxiety. torment.Fortunately, at this time, the ringtone of the text message from the first mobile phone saved everyone. "Ah! There's a signal!" Someone shouted first.What followed was a wave of phone calls or text messages.Xia Zhengyi also felt the vibration of the phone in his trousers pocket, took it over and saw that the message came from his worried mother.After typing the last word "It's alright.", the icon of the small letter paper swished around on the screen twice and then disappeared. Just as I was about to close the phone, it stopped. A moment later he wrote a second message.This time, the icon of the small letterhead spun around on the screen several times before disappearing. Eight After driving for a long time, the bus finally came to the refueling and rest station.Xia Zhengyi and half of the students in the class jumped down. When Xia Zhengyi was about to return with a plastic bag of bread in his mouth, he saw his deskmate Lan Ce standing on the side of the road opposite the gas station.He rubbed his eyes and walked away. "Why? Looking at the scenery? Be careful not to fall." Reminding Lan Ce of the cliff at his feet. "No, I'm looking for a signal. I couldn't make a call just now. I'm so annoying." He raised his hand a little higher as he spoke. "It's time to change your mobile phone." Zheng Yi said, "Mine have been sent out." Lan Ce saw the parking place, "Oh, it's time to go, the teacher is calling us." "Okay." Zheng Yi turned around while rubbing his eyes.I can't see clearly all the time, which is very uncomfortable. Where the finger touched, a white worm instantly spread its wings. The scale-covered wings spread out, covering half of the world, blowing a rhythmic and powerful wind. one time.Twice.Three times.Four. Huge butterfly, about to fly away. When Xia Zhengyi slid down, Lan Ce, who was half a step ahead of him, didn't even see him.It was too late when I turned around. Lan Ce looked coldly at the valley under his feet, and from the huge hollow roar in his mind, he could only distinguish the scream of the teacher in the distance. Nine Xia Shengxuan, who had just crawled up his brows with drowsiness, felt the continuous vibration in his pocket.He shook his head and took out his phone after sobering up. "Huh? Is there a signal?" It was still "You are not in the service area" before.Xia Shengxuan sat up straight on the chair and turned over the phone cover. "I won't be going home this week, but I'll be back next week. Also: Is it you who cook? - Zheng Yi" Xia Shengxuan thought for a while, and after choosing "Reply": "I'm here to burn it. Then wait for you to come back." Maybe the signal is still not very good, and it took a long time to see the words "sent successfully". The minibus turned a corner around the mountain road, and immediately the brilliant afterglow of the setting sun filled every corner, dyeing every fiber of it golden red and dazzling, including all the dust floating in the air.
