Counting, he hadn't been back to Cross Street in a long time.
At that time, a group of boys chased and pushed and shoved at the entrance of the three hutongs in the most dashing and happy days indeed.
When Lin Lu Snapdragon was born, his father was still just the deputy chief of the fire office, and his family's condition was well-off. But after giving birth to Lin Qi, his mother happened to be unemployed and laid off, and the family conditions tightened a lot. In his memory, although the life of that period of time is difficult, but at least it is really happy. Later, his father's job transfer, life is getting better and better, more things to worry about, but not as happy as before.
At that time, a bunch of them stood at the base of the wall and smoked and chatted.
Da Liu wants to follow Lin Luchu to go to military school, but he did not score enough, Lin Luchu suggested that he listen to the family's advice to read a business out of the civil service, Da Liu refused to 200 pounds of fat man twisted his bladder and said: "I just want to be with you!"
Lin Lu Snapdragon now think of that look in the heart of Da Liu at that time is still a chill.
Sun Ming Yang and Shen Mu even taunted Da Liu at the time that he was definitely bent.
Who would have thought, Da Liu said, "Li blind man said, I do not know people, a life of suffering, others I do not know, but follow the primrose master will be right."
"So we're both just a bunch of posers?"
When Sun Ming Yang and Shen Mu both heard this, they wanted to cut ties with Da Liu at that moment.
Hutong mouth fortune-telling Mr. Li, the name so far no one clear, a long time, and here people are familiar with, we are directly called him Li blind, but he did not mind at all.
Blind man Li sent each of the four of them a sentence at that time.
Lee Ming Yang's is.
--Men have tears, men's blood has no home to return to.
Blind Li gave Shen Mu a Buddhist scripture.
--Only when all sentient beings are finished can one realize Bodhi.
When blind man Li looked at Lin Luchu, he directly waved his hand, giving a refusal: "No need to give me, I do not believe in these."
At that time, blind man Li just shook his head and smiled, really did not say.
By the time he finished his exams and left to go to military school, the two met again at the mouth of the hutong, and blind Li took the rare initiative to open his mouth and call him.
Lin Lu Snapdragon quite surprised, did not think that this can give him recognized, took his hand in front of him waved, Li blind man opened his hand, said: "Do not wave, this skill are not, I set up this stall early be put down."
Lin Luchuan was wearing all black, simple and clean, a black mountaineering bag behind him, and found it interesting, so he leaned against the wall at the entrance of the hutong in a rare hangout and chatted with him.
"How do you hear it?"
"Told you, what am I mixing?"
Lin Luzhu smiled down.
But blind man Li finally said it.
"The wind, the footsteps, the breath, you're not quite like those three kids, you have a steadier breath, your footsteps are heavy, and Da Liu would be panting heavily and smelling bad."
This kind of stuff is only a matter of opinion, even if it is said.
Lin Luzhu nodded and didn't say anything.
Blind man Li said, "Da Liu came to see me when he left and asked me what that meant."
Lin Lu Snap held his arms and pushed his hiking bag against the wall, curling one foot to step on the wall, curving his lips, "He's timid, your words scared him."
"You really don't want to hear yours?"
Lin Lu Snap looked at him, "Go ahead."
Blind man Li more also refused to say, back and forth a total of those two sentences.
"You're a kid with pride, blood, and a hard bone; you'll definitely be a hero in the future."
"It's just that since ancient times, heroes have had a hard time with beauty."
Lin Luzhu, "Finished?"
"Just remember what I said! It won't hurt you!"
Lin Lu Snapdragon stood up straight, converging the hangdog energy, the corner of the mouth is no longer smiling, the voice also sank: "Since you calculate so accurate, did you calculate why my parents divorced?"
Blind man Li didn't say another word.
That should be the last time they met, Lin Lu Snapdragon went back again, I heard that blind man Li had already left, no one knows where he went.
......
The clock hand points to just after eleven o'clock.
Da Liu swept a glance at Lin Luchu on the sofa, made a look at Sun Ming Yang and Shen Mu, and hesitantly asked Lin Luchu's opinion, "Why don't we go here first today?"
Lin Luzhu held his heel cigarette in his mouth and nodded slightly.
Big Liu pulled the other two to stand up and said goodbye to Nanchu with a heated smile on his face, "Little sister-in-law! It's nice to meet you today, come and play more often when you have time, why don't we leave a number?"
With that, he pulled out his cell phone.
It was opened by Lin Lu Snapdragon with a slap, "Get lost."
Da Liu snapped, "Gotta, roll with it."
The trio left the house in a state of disarray, with bottles and cans tipped over on their backs and cigarette butts thrown all over the place.
Lin Luchu returned after sending Da Liu and the others, leaned against the wall of the entrance hall with his arms wrapped around her and asked, "Take you home?"
Nanchu didn't blink and kindly suggested, "Why don't I sleep at your house? You don't need to send me off either, tomorrow I'll get up in the morning and walk by myself."
It was late at night, the lights in the living room had already been turned off, only a wall lamp was lit at the entrance, halo yellow, the light was warm, Lin Lu Snapdragon leaned against the wall, as if he was gilded with a layer of gold, Nanchu later still often remembered his reaction that night.
Lin Lu Snap then licked the corner of his mouth with the tip of his tongue and smiled down.
Nanchu thought it was really quite handsome, different from normal handsome, probably manly.
"Go."
Laughing for a moment, he said.
Lin Luchu took the car keys to get the car, turned his hand and threw her a black jacket, very clean, like it was just taken out of the coat closet, Nanchu took a closer look, it should be his spring jacket.
"Put it on first."
Nanchu draped, looked down at herself, a low-cut fitted long skirt, with a men's casual black jacket, wide and large, just covered to the root of her thighs over, actually produced a kind of inexplicable desire to be protected, look at themselves happy.
"Was it good?" She asked Lin Luzhu.
Lin Luchu opened the car door and looked back at her, quickly averting his gaze again and getting into the car, "Looking good is the purpose of wearing clothes?"
Nanchu walked around the front of the car, pulled open the passenger door, got in and sat down, and said, "I'd rather not wear it if it doesn't look good."
"......"
"I look better without it."
"......"
Not bothering to talk to her again, "Where do you live?"
"Starburst."
Lin Luchu driving more silent, not too talk, as before, waiting for the traffic lights used to hold the steering wheel with one hand, one hand on the edge of the car window to see the night scene.
The car was soon parked downstairs.
Before Nanchu got out of the car, she returned her jacket to him, and Lin Luchu took it and threw it to the back seat, leaning back and waiting for her to get out of the car.
Nanchu stood outside the car, leaned on the window and said to him, "In a week's time, we'll have dinner together, and I'll come find you, or you can give me a call."
When she bends over, she has a view to look at, and it's not a total leak, just that kind of energy that is particularly seductive.
Lin Lu Snapdragon leaned back in his seat, one hand resting on the edge of the window, idly surveying her, when he didn't speak, the peaks of his eyebrows were slightly austere, serious, and his mind was hard to guess. After a long time, he took a cigarette from the center storage box, lit it, threw the lighter back into the box, and faintly asked, "What do you want from me?"
But it was the same energy that held Nanchu at bay.
Late at night, when the trees were silent, the girl's eyes were bright, brighter than moonlight, and she asked him rhetorically, "What do you think you have for me to take?"
Lin Lu Snapdragon sneered, smoke half a mouth spit out, hand to the window, narrowed his eyes, dusted ash, sarcastic: "That's true, what you want nothing, when you dumped me that pile of money is not also gone quite dashing?"
"Did you spend that money?"
"Spent clean long ago."
"Where did it all go?"
In fact, at that time Nanchu gave him money, the heart is quite upset, plus the little girl that does not sound like mentioning the gas, would have liked to throw that money, but he was a soldier how could throw Chairman Mao, walked two steps, think it is not good, and then folded back to pick up the next day, the next day to find the big Liu contacted a welfare institution to donate.
Couldn't keep it anyway.
"What do you care?" Lin Lu Snapdragon words a put down, bluntly said: "You also do not need to come to me, the year, in exchange for who I will take in, anyway, I live in the team, the home is also empty, rent out but also out of thin air to add an income."
Nanchu looked at him quietly, her eyes flowing, "You even made three trips back home in between."
Lin Lu Snapdragon started the car, "I was just not adapting, I forgot for a moment that there was someone else at home."
"You forgot the first time, and the second? And the third time?"
"...... I'll be damned, you don't think I have anything on you hairy girl, do you?"
Nanchu shrugged her shoulders with a face of how do I know what's in your heart.
"......" can't talk.
After a moment of silence, Lin Luchu decided not to dwell on her any longer and blasted her upstairs.
"What time is it, hurry up."
"Then we'll have dinner together in a week?" Nanchu hadn't forgotten about it.
Lin Lu Snapdragon gave her a deep look, realizing that this girl was really persistent as could be, and snubbed, "It's not necessarily false, let's talk about it when the time comes."
Nanchu had a face that she wouldn't go up until she agreed.
Lin Lu Snapdragon wrinkled his eyebrows and said impatiently, "Okay, okay, okay."
"Give me the cell phone." Nanchu reached out.
"Is it over?"
"Where am I going to find you if you run off again like last time?"
Lin Luchu glanced at her, fished out his cell phone from his pants pocket and tossed it to her, Nanchu firmly took it, made a call into her own cell phone and made sure it was connected before tossing it back to him, contentedly waving at him with a smile and softly saying, "Good night Captain Lin, good night!"
Lin Lu Snapdragon man leaning against the back of the chair, one hand holding the steering wheel, one hand holding a cigarette, hanging out of the window, half burned ash did not smoke, the cigarette floating a wisp of smoke, the night wind blew, half of the ash was blown off, torn by the wind into crumbs scattered in the dust.
He looked at Nanchu's back.
The tip of his tongue licked the corner of his lips and he hummed softly.
