June is our farewell song

Chapter 307 The Silent Bread

Standing in front of the tomb, the shadows of the two were drawn long by the slanting sun, and they looked like strange monsters from a distance.

The air in early spring was damp and sour. After listening to the old man's words, Gu Yuan felt like a lightning flashed in his mind. Although he said he always wanted to meet Ye Qiuling's parents, he never expected it to be in this situation. .The old man in front of him has snow-white hair, and even if there are no wrinkles on his face, he doesn't look like he is five or sixty years old.

"After that, I have been here with her all the time." The old man stood a little in front of him, eyes downcast, his white hair was like a swaying dandelion in the soft and wet wind, the sun and tree shadow intertwined and caressed his Lead gray indistinct lines were drawn on the face, "It wasn't long after this child became stupid, and the child's mother couldn't bear the blow, so she let her go. In just a few months, I was the only one left in the family. I quit my original job and simply came here to accompany the two of them."

The old man's gaze fell on the tombstone next to him, and Gu Yuan looked along.

"Is this..."

"Yeah, it's the child's mother. When the two of us were together, we used to quarrel about the violin, but after thinking about it, what are those..." The old man's voice sounded like a bellows that had been in disrepair, " Well, it's been a long time in the past, and there's nothing to talk about. Hurry up and go back, kid, you should have your own things to do."

Gu Yuan looked at the old man with a heavy heart, and now he doubted more and more whether it was meaningful for him to pursue this matter.There are too many people who rely on time to slowly heal their wounds, but their scars are uncovered again because of their persistence. Speaking of which, why are they pursuing the truth?Still unable to find the answer to this question, Gu Yuan lacked more and more reasons to support him to continue.

Looking at the bleak back of the white-haired old man, Gu Yuan slowly pursed his slightly parted lips.

Stop here, don't chase any further.

He said so to himself.

However, not reconciled.

I am not reconciled to the waste of so long efforts.

Gu Yuan turned his head to look at Ye Qiuling's tombstone.

In the photo above, the ordinary-looking girl's black eyes seem to be dimmed by the morning mist, but it still makes people feel stubborn and stubborn.

When I was young, it seemed that there was always a steady stream of energy in my body, and I could easily fall down and get up easily.

Paranoid, serious, clinging to a certain point, and then falling into the horns and never getting out.

Confused, perplexed, but full of enthusiasm, I firmly believe that with my own strength, I will be able to do something, and I will definitely be able to change the world.

Looking back after a long time, I realized that I was so small and sad at that time.

But instead of regretting it, you will miss that feeling.

Those small emotions glued together, gradually turned into longing, into a cry, and into a force to make people firm.

Gu Yuan raised his head and looked at the back of the old man. In front of him was a sky without stars or moon. The dark blue sky was dyed into black and yellow interlaced broken clouds in the west-slanting sunset. The sound of the car merged together, cool and wet, and the whole world seemed false and psychedelic.

"Wait, uncle."

When the old man reached the entrance of the stone steps ahead, Gu Yuan stopped him.The old man turned his head, narrowing his eyes slightly, with a surprised expression on his face.

"how?"

"I want to ask a question, just one question." Gu Yuan walked over and stopped in front of the old man, "Is the two girls who came to worship, one named Li Shiyu and the other Shen Xueru?"

"Well, it's true. The two children, one in winter and one in spring, seem to be an appointment. Speaking of which, it's almost time again. The child will come every year in early spring, on the last day of February. Come to worship."

"Okay... thank you."

"You don't have to be so polite, it's my job to serve the guests, but..." the old man said, looking back at the direction of the two tombstones, "I don't want more people to come here to disturb them, I hope Can you forgive my old man's little selfishness."

Gu Yuan watched his figure go away slowly. On the path at the end of the stone steps, the canopy of towering pine forests on both sides was lush, and the brilliance of the setting sun was blocked, making the path look gloomy and gloomy. On the side of the roadside trees, the fan-shaped cemetery Bathed in a burnt yellow glow, the contrast is striking.The clear black dividing line seemed somewhat shocking.

His eyes were sore and swollen, Gu Yuan raised his hands and rubbed them a few times, then turned and walked back.

At the exit of the cemetery, I met Lu Siyao who came out slowly again. She walked over with a plastic bag in light steps.Gu Yuan stopped and stood under the archway in front of the cemetery. The two men's eyes met, and the boy looked away first.

"Have you heard what you want to ask?"

"Hmm... I can almost smell it, but I might have to come again at the end of the month."

"In other words, the plan has been successfully completed, not bad."

"Not bad... are you also concerned about this matter?"

"No, how could I care about things that have nothing to do with me?"

"Ah..." Gu Yuan echoed with a single syllable, knowing that this would be the answer. She has always been like this, and she is really self-sufficient.That's why he was dubious about that absurd reason. If someone else said "I want to go for a walk in the cemetery to relax", he would only think that the other party was lying, but if it was Lu Siyao who said it, then there is a certain possibility. Reliability.

After all, this guy never thinks about what other people think.

Gu Yuan looked at the girl whose back was facing the setting sun in front of her. She was 163 tall, and the sea blue top was thinly attached to her body, and the straps protruding from both sides of the brim hung lazily on her shoulders, showing the clear lines of her collarbone.It's been a while since I saw her, and it feels like she's a lot thinner than before.Although there is no obvious change at first glance, but if you look closely, you can find that the hair, which was always carefully groomed before, is actually messy now.

What the hell is this guy doing lately?

The pedestrians next to them came and went, and the two stood under the archway, their shadows being trampled to pieces by the footsteps of others.The dark yellow light is like a low-purity fluid in the air, with a bit of twilight weakness, and time seems to slow down.

Gu Yuan lost his mind for a moment, forgetting who he was, why he was here, and where he was going.

Recently, he often has this feeling when his mind wanders, everything becomes very far away, everyone and everything seem to have nothing to do with him, and the whole world is just an illusory moon hanging in the sky.

"Hey, you." The girl suddenly said, "Do you want to eat something, from noon to now, no, it should be from morning to now, you haven't eaten anything."

"Hmm..." Gu Yuan originally wanted to deny it, but his stomach growled uncooperatively, "That's true. But there isn't much to eat around here, so I'd better go home and figure out a way... "

The girl raised the bag she had been carrying to him.

"It's for you, eat it."

"This is..." Gu Yuan glanced at the inside of the bag, and the aroma that hit his face surprised him, "Scallion meat floss bread? Or just out of the oven? Where did you buy it?"

"It's over there, at the other exit. When I passed by, I found that there was a sale. But it's a small shop, and there's only this one, so you can just settle for it." The girl's tone was still light, right? Clearly speaking with warmth, but there is a deliberate indifference in it.

"It's just about... Don't be kidding, this is my favorite bread. It has always been since I was a child."

"Is that so? I don't know, I don't remember. So do you eat or not?"

"Eat, of course, I'm starving to death."

Looking at the fragrant bread in the bag, Gu Yuan was about to drool, and just about to stretch out his hand, the bag quickly went away.

"Do you want to stand and eat under the archway at the entrance of the cemetery?"

"Hmm...it seems a bit inappropriate..."

"Even if you're willing, I'm not willing. But I have a part in it," the girl said and started to walk forward, "I haven't eaten anything since noon."

"Oh... where are you going?"

"go home."

"The bread..."

"Let's talk in the car."

However, all the way to the bus stop, boarded the bus into the city, and after the two sat down in the back row, the girl still firmly grasped the bag containing the bread.

"that……"

"Eating is forbidden on the bus. This is a rule, a rule of a civilized city." The girl tapped the sign on the side window with the knuckle of her index finger when the boy first spoke, "I'll give it to you when I get off the bus." .”

"But the bread will be cold..."

"This is an insulated bag."

"All right……"

The boy, who was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back and was constantly seduced by the aroma of toast, couldn't bear to smile.From the northern suburbs to the west of the city, it takes at least half an hour by car, and by that time, I must have passed out, probably.But the bread is in the hands of the girl, and she bought it. Although she said it was for herself just now, but...

Although it was itchy in his heart, Gu Yuan couldn't say anything, but his eyebrows were slightly raised by a few tenths of an arc.

After 15 minutes, the bus had just arrived in the south of the city when the girl suddenly stood up.

"Hey, where are you going?"

"get off."

"Didn't you say go home?"

Lu Siyao got out of the car without answering, and Gu Yuan followed, only to see the girl walking along the road.

"It's actually here..." Gu Yuan glanced at the stop sign next to him, "This guy...what the hell is he thinking..."

After passing the square, wooden bridge, and tree-lined road, finally walk on a path without stone slabs, pass through the dense woods, and a platform composed of a huge exposed boulder appears in front of you.Facing the wide river, there is a not-so-steep cliff below. There is a cafe under the cliff, and the pier is far away on the left, where many heavy machinery and ships are parked.An unknown grass grew around the stone, exuding a strange fragrance, which just drove away the mosquitoes.

"Hey, let me tell you, what do you want..."

Seeing the girl sitting alone on the rock looking at the back of the river, the boy swallowed the rest of the words unconsciously.

Gu Yuan walked over, sat down a foot away from her, and let out a long breath.

"Did something happen?"

Siyao didn't speak, she silently took out bread from the bag and handed it to him, then picked up another one herself, and ate it with small bites.

"What kind of insulation bag..." I felt the temperature of the bread the moment I touched it, and it was just an ordinary plastic bag, "But it doesn't matter..."

Siyao still didn't speak.

The ink color floating in the night air became thicker and thicker. The two of them sat on the stone facing the torrential river, eating the chilled scallion meat floss bread.

Until all the bread was eaten, the girl didn't say a word, she just hugged her legs with her hands, buried her chin in her knees, and quietly looked at the turbulent river in the night in a daze.
