In the cool autumn of September, there is no more impetuousness in the heat of the summer, and the tiredness of the whole summer, gradually recovering from laziness. Human beings are really wonderful creatures. As long as they can move, they don't want to stay in a nest to get fat.
It's been a whole year, and I haven't been here since last year when I said goodbye with tears. It's not that I don't want to come, but all the yearning suddenly gave rise to a little panic and sadness.
It was quiet all the way, with no one or a car, and only the continuous drizzle. A friend drove the car and joked, "Do you know what the most bizarre co-production in the world is?" "What is it?" I asked in confusion.
friend smiled and said, "You walk and I drive, we will still move forward side by side."
friend saw me speechless and asked, "Do you know what the farthest distance is in the world?" "What is it?" I still didn't understand.
"You were walking in the rain, and I was sitting in the car, walking with you all the way, but I couldn't guess where you wanted to go."
The tears that I had been holding back suddenly burst into my eyes. It was such a familiar scene, but it has changed. It was also raining lightly, but it was at the other end of the road. I sat in the car and drove forward slowly. My brother was carrying my things and I was chasing after him. I chased for a long time without giving up. It wasn’t until the car stopped that I put my things in the trunk. Then I wiped the water droplets on my face and said with a smile, "Two." My legs are not strong enough to chase this wheel, but I am walking to death!" It was winter, and I was still sweating while running in the drizzle.
didn't understand the weight of those steps until this moment.
friend smiled and handed out a tissue and said, "Wherever you want to go and who you want to see, get in the car and go right away!"
Is that okay? You can meet whoever you want wherever you want?
looked up through the rain curtain, and saw that the end of the road was still silent, with no one and no cars. At the end of this road, is there still a place you want to go and can you still see the people you want to see?
The bluestone path of the past, the happiness and expectations of the past, the endless purple lilacs that once were picked, the endless dandelion parachutes that once blew, the girl with pigtails, how many times she jumped on the bluestone board. It was dark, just waiting for someone who loved her and protected her to return from get off work. When she walked out of the village and returned, the bluestone path had been covered with cement, and the colors of her entire childhood were covered with it.
She doesn't like the current cement road, because the cold pavement can no longer drill out the purple patches she likes, can no longer touch the smooth slate grid, and can no longer wait for the person who grew up with her.
My friend stepped on the accelerator and rushed into the rain, disappearing at the end of the road in an instant. I folded up my umbrella and ran forward until I could run no longer, until I was out of breath, until I saw the whole village on the top of the mountain...
I was in that village The memories of my childhood include my teachers and classmates in elementary school, and the hundreds of houses in the neighborhood that I will never forget. But one family after another passed by, and my brother left. There is no longer a shore for me to dock, and no branches for me to rest on.
Standing on the top of the mountain, looking at the road extending from the village to the other end of the village, it is the first time I feel helpless and lonely, the first time I feel so panic and fear. It turns out that this road is so far, so far away. Out of sight.
My friend's car came out of the village and parked on the side of the road. I could only sit in the car and make some adjustments. A friend said, "There is a way back through the village."
"I know."
A friend asked, "Go back the way you came, or go through the village?"
Yes, go back the way you came, or go through the village?
