Chapter 45 Chapter 4 Unannounced Visits to Black Doctor Dens

Many years later, I can still feel that I am full of infinite nostalgia for that seaside city.I even think, when I am old, I will sit lazily on the balcony, and the warm subtropical sunlight will shine on me through the window lattice.I listened to music from many years ago and fell into the memory of the past.I will recall this seaside city, which has become a part of my life. There is an old street in that seaside city, and there are rows of clothing stores on both sides of the street. The street is paved with bluestone slabs, which looks very simple.There is a palm tree every few tens of meters on the street. The broad leaves are like fans, swaying slowly in the vast blue sky.

I often walk on this old street. There is often pop music flowing out of the store and on the street, which makes me fascinated by it.Those shops played over and over again those hit songs that I've never forgotten.At the end of the street, there is a small mountain with a small temple on the top of the mountain, where people often go to offer incense. It was in front of that temple that I encountered a love affair. That was a very beautiful girl, but now, I don't know where she went, how is her life now? She lives now only in those old sad songs.Whenever I hear these songs, I think of her.Just thinking about her brings tears to my eyes.At noon that day, I was wandering aimlessly in that ancient street, when suddenly a girl came up to me, and she asked softly, "Handsome guy, how do I get to the temple?"

I turned my head and saw a beautiful woman standing beside me.She was a standard southern beauty, with dark skin, beautiful features, long eyelashes slightly upturned, slightly flattened nose, and slightly upturned lips, appearing stubborn.This is the face and facial features of a standard southern girl.Like all the girls in the south, she is small and exquisite, like a brush, and it seems that a gust of wind can blow her all over the sky. Southerners call men handsome and women beautiful.It is said that a girl from the north just came to the south, she was very happy when she was called a beauty, but when a few minutes later, an old lady behind her was also called a beauty, she felt extremely disappointed.

The temple she asked about was on the hill at the end of this street.After pointing to her, I said, "If you like, I will be your tour guide." She was obviously very happy, and then asked tentatively, "How much?" I said, "Free service to beautiful women." At that time, I didn't think about what kind of story would happen to her. Born in the southern city, she was tall and straight and beautiful like a fairy; while I was born in the northern countryside, tall and strong, with a fierce face.In front of such a beautiful girl, I can only feel ashamed. We walked to the top of the mountain together. There were few tourists on the winding mountain road. From time to time, couples walked by each other, shoulder to shoulder and hand in hand, smiling like flowers, which made me very envious.

She said she was born in a nearby city and worked there.She studied science at university.I can feel it from the fact that her speech is very logical and her thinking is very careful.She spoke very little, and more often I was talking.It was also the first time I discovered that my eloquence was so good in front of a girl. There is a temple and a Taoist temple on that mountain.She didn't understand the difference between a temple and a Taoist temple.I said that Buddhism is a religion that originated in China. So far, only China has this kind of religion. Its founder is Lao Tzu who is as famous as Confucius in the Spring and Autumn Period. Buddhism originated in India and was introduced to China during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Its founder is The ancient Indian prince Sakyamuni.Taoism enshrines the Jade Emperor and Taishang Laojun, while Buddhism enshrines the Tathagata Buddha and the Eighteen Arhats, but among their worship objects, there is a common figure, which is Guanyin Bodhisattva.

She looked at me enviously: "You majored in religion?" I said, "I'm studying Chinese. The Chinese department is also known as the panacea department. I need to know a little bit about everything." She was very happy that day.She said I was the most knowledgeable person she had ever met.I remember that I seemed to be showing off that day, talking about religion, history, geography, and deliberately talking about literature, which I am best at.I said the names of those long foreigners one by one, as easily and casually as talking about my neighbors.She said, "You're amazing." I was secretly proud of her words for a long time.

Today, the so-called literature can only deceive these innocent little girls.Literature, once high above the temple, is now reduced to dust, and its price is lower than cabbage and radish. When we broke up, we exchanged phone numbers. That night, I received a text message from her, but my mobile phone cannot send text messages, I can only make and receive calls.I didn't know what was going on with her, so I called her in a panic. The chat lasted another half an hour.The next day, my mobile phone stopped due to arrears, which made me feel distressed for a long time. That night, I bought an IC phone card, found a public phone booth on the side of the road, and chatted with her again.At that time, it was already the grain rain in the northern season, and the south began to heat up.The first batch of newborn mosquitoes this year swarmed in the bushes like Yamamoto Fifty-Six’s bombers. When they saw me in short-sleeved shorts, they rushed over happily.While driving away the mosquitoes, I was on the phone with her, reveling in wishful thinking.I carry forward the revolutionary spirit of fearing neither hardship nor death, even if bitten by mosquitoes.

At dawn, a 50 yuan phone card was emptied by me.And my whole body has long been bitten by mosquitoes, like measles. But I am very happy.I told the director, "I have a girlfriend." I wanted to let the whole world know that I had a girlfriend. At that time, calling every night became the most important content in my life. My love was actually very short-lived, it only lasted for a month, and was strangled in the cradle by her parents. During this month, I went to the city where she was located twice.These two times, I lived alone in the hotel, standing at the window, looking in the direction of her home, filled with resentment and sadness like Wu Dalang falling in love with Lin Daiyu.

During the two times we met, I just held hands with her and walked on the mountain roads and the seaside in the outskirts of the city.At dusk, she said that her parents were waiting for her at home, so I hurriedly called her to take her home.Her hand is very small and soft, like a warm bird that I hold in the palm of my hand, which is very cute. I was thinking about her all the time, fantasizing about being with her, even shamelessly in bed with her, even though I knew it was very far away.She is very beautiful in my heart, even after many years, she is still as pure and innocent as a saint.

When I went to her city for the third time, she said that she had to work overtime at night, and I said okay, I will wait for you to get off work.She said she had to work overtime until dawn, and I said I would wait for you until dawn.She said you should go back, the two of us have no results. I asked her why, and she said that her parents thought I didn't have a house and a car, which is the most basic criterion for girls in this city to choose a mate. I was in pain like I was burned.Although I know that in this world, I am the only one who loves her the most, and only I regard her as more important than my life, but in modern society, love is not enough, money is also needed.

I can only give up painfully. A few days later, I called her again, and she had changed the number. I cut off this love and threw it in the wind of memory. I have never been to that city again, and never will. I finally understand how important money is to love.I want to work hard to make money.
