Chapter 963: Ding Dong and Jia Jia's chess classroom
This is an alley, an old alley that you could often find ten years ago, but now you can’t find it in K City. The mottled bungalows and uneven stone roads show that this alley has been around for many, many decades.
Time, the taste of time and the taste of life of generations slowly escape from every corner of the alley, enough to make every urbanite accustomed to high-rise buildings and fast-paced life feel inexplicably touched, and then stand blankly
At the entrance of the alley, take a deep breath and sigh.
What are you sighing about? Maybe it's the childhood that has passed away, the childhood when you were suddenly hit in the head by a piece of chalk, and then the class teacher yelled "xx, stand at the back of the classroom".
Written on the bumpy cement wall is a line of scratchy chalk characters that I have been reading for more than ten years and plan to read for the rest of my life. Many of the words are even replaced with pinyin: Jun is a big bastard! - Xu Qian
Shallow Liu.
I vaguely remember that day I snatched half a bun from a certain childhood sweetheart’s lunch, just because I was curious about whether the food the girl had eaten had a different taste. Then she spent the whole day being angry with herself. She had completely forgotten about it.
Things slowly emerged at this moment: This was one of the countless silly things between me and a certain little girl who had been suspected of having ADHD since she was a child.
From the depths of the alley came a call that had sounded in the evening many years ago and still occasionally echoes in my ears: "Ajun! Go home for dinner!"
I looked blankly into the depths of the alley, my memory still jumping between two scenes. On one side was the Temple of the Goddess of Life in the Star Realm God Realm. On the other side was the mottled alley that was so clear in my memory. I didn’t know why I
Suddenly jumped from the Star Realm to this place more than ten years ago. I could only confirm that everything in front of me was extremely real, so I pinched my face hard. It didn't hurt very much. Maybe this was just an exquisite dream, but obviously I had already
If you fall into it abnormally, you may not be able to find a way to wake up in a short time.
But I don't feel nervous or uneasy. Maybe...well, I started to be short-sighted more than ten years ago.
"Ajun, Ajun! You are in a daze again! Sister Chen Qian asked you to go home for dinner!"
Suddenly there was a crisp and sweet call from behind, which woke me up from my brief trance. I turned around in surprise and saw in front of me a man wearing a rustic autumn and winter primary school uniform with two loose pigtails.
A skinny little girl with messy hair. The little girl's hair is a little yellow and messy from playing so hard. Her face is red due to the cold weather, and there are two sparkling water stains under her nose. Only**
The little girl who is 20 years old now looks unattractive from beginning to end. She has almost no highlights worthy of attention except her high energy level. Only her eyes have become radiant and lively. It can be vaguely seen a few years later.
What a pair of smart and beautiful big eyes these will be. I looked at the loli version of Qian Qian in front of me in ecstasy. Suddenly I felt that I really had a vision for early investment: How could this girl become so beautiful after more than ten years?
"If you are in a daze for a while, the teacher will have to ask you to stand at the back of the classroom!"
The little girl, who was full of boyish demeanor from beginning to end, pulled my arm and walked forward. Then she stopped as soon as she took a step, as if she suddenly remembered something, and then she started to go crazy in her dirty little schoolbag.
turn.
She took out half of the bun wrapper and stuffed it into my hand: "Here you go! Don't you want to eat it?"
Then while I was still in a daze, she rummaged again and took out a small plastic bag from her schoolbag. Inside was a large ball of leek and eggs: "I was afraid that the stuffing would spill, so I took it out and put it in a plastic bag. You
Just stuff it into a bun and eat it in a while. I’m smart, why are you in a daze again! Eat quickly, and go home for dinner after you’re done!”
Me: "..." I vaguely remember that there was such a scene that day that year, when I opened the package gorgeously and brought me half a bun. What did I do at that time?
I slowly bit into the bun wrapper, took a bite of the leek and egg, and followed the little girl with blank eyes, walking through the familiar old alleys, smelling the damp and cold smell of the old house, and the little girl bouncing around.
The pigtails were dancing in front of my eyes, and I looked down at my body. I was wearing an elementary school uniform that was as rustic as Qian Qian's. My chest was black, the corners of my pants were untied, and my cuffs were torn open and a small hole was visible.
It was sewn together with poor craftsmanship - my sister's needlework skills were terrible until she was fifteen years old.
In a dizzy state, I have been led to the home that slowly turned yellow in my memory. The familiar red brick wall, the waistline of the cement wall, and the motorcycle built by my adoptive father with cement at the door.
On the ramp, the single-leaf iron door with peeling paint is covered with layers of old blessing characters from previous years. The old Spring Festival couplets on both sides have turned light yellow, and when you touch it with your hands, the paste and mud will fall out.
, the adoptive parents who were once alive were well-known "big shots" in this alley. They did business and opened companies. In that era when it was easy to make a fortune doing business, they made countless pots of gold, but they still didn't.
After leaving this alley where they had lived for 20 or 30 years, I was a little overwhelmed when I stood in front of this old iron door that I had only seen for the last time more than ten years ago. It took me a long time to reach out and pat the door.
As a result, the little girl next to me immediately started chattering: "Ajun, you are so silly! You even knocked on the door at your own house - Sister Chen Qian! The door is open! I am back! Ahjun is so silly eating steamed buns!"
The iron door opened with a creak, and a thirteen- or fourteen-year-old girl wearing a homemade apron with a childish look on her face appeared in front of the door. First she raised her hand to flick my head in a familiar manner, and then greeted Qian Qian to come in: "I'm here today.
Let's eat here, right? My uncle and aunt told me to wash my hands first and eat braised pancakes in the evening - Jun, what are you doing standing there stupidly? Come in quickly to wash your hands and eat, and then play around on the road again!"
When I was feeling dizzy, I was dragged to the dining table by my elder sister and younger lolita Qianqian. In the living room, I saw the photos of my adoptive parents still hanging on the wall - this photo is now
It has been placed in the Shadow Fortress and is guarded day and night by the royal guards. Without them, perhaps there would be no current head of the empire. As usual, my sister placed two pairs of bowls and chopsticks beside the dining table, and then served the two little ones who were waiting to be fed.
. Then she mentioned that she planned to move in two years. Her parents had bought a house quite far away from here. The loli version of Qianqian was red-eyed at the time. Later, she and I agreed at the dinner table that we would also move after the move.
We wanted to meet. We also agreed to eat candied haws together on the top of the Forbidden City on a full moon night ten years later. We hooked up, swore an oath, and took the cake as a token - later my sister forced us to eat the token.
I seem to have completely returned to the state I was in more than ten years ago, even though I always want to tell Qianqian that in fact, the two of them did not meet again on the top of the Forbidden City ten years later, but ate together on the top of the experimental building every day
Vegetarian fried pancakes for two yuan each...
After eating, I helped clear away the dishes, wash the dishes and wipe the table. After finishing these, my sister had to do her homework. But Qianqian was tricked by me into finding a gadget and went to the back room to play by herself. I ran to
I sat in a daze at the door, watching the sunset at the end of the alley. Everything was quiet. In the old alley more than ten years ago, you could not hear the cars coming and going in the same place more than ten years later. I lowered my head and picked at my little one.
I picked up my fingernails several times, and then walked forward along the alley, thinking to myself that if this was an exquisite dream, then why haven't I woke up yet?
When I passed the house on the far side of the alley, I suddenly felt something in my heart. I turned around and knocked on the courtyard door I just passed by: "Pangpang! Pangpang! I came to play with you!"
Sure enough, after three or four minutes, there was still no answer!
I started to think of something. I knocked at each house along the alley, but no one was there. This alley was empty!
"I'll go and jump directly from the God Realm to Silent Hill..." I muttered to myself. But it didn't feel too intrusive. After all, things like being haunted are not enough of a threat to a kid like me.
Of course, the most important thing is that I often see a ghost crawling around in the wall at home. I have long been used to it.
After walking around in the alley and coming out, I started to analyze what was going on. After thinking hard for ten minutes, I almost pulled out half of the wooden telegraph pole at the entrance of the alley. However, I still couldn't figure it out.
At that moment, a clear and rising girl's voice with a bit of a delicate air suddenly came from behind: "Hey! How to get to South Street?"
I turned my head and found that there was a little girl standing behind me who looked about the same age as the loli version of Qian Qian. She had long hair, wore a beautiful-looking white dress, and wore a once-very fashionable hat on her head.
The headband with a net bag and the complicated doll-like skirt of the other party seemed out of place with the mottled old alleys around it. In my impression, there were really no girls dressed like this in the alley where I lived - it was several miles away.
The naughty children in the land have been trained by Qian Qian with me. A group of wild girls and wild boys who dare to roll on the ground wearing no matter what clothes they wear. The one in front of me, dressed like a princess, will probably not survive more than three years in this alley.
Ten minutes.
"Hey, don't be in a daze! How to get to South Street?" The unknown girl stamped her feet, then stuck out her tongue as if she suddenly remembered something, and smiled at me, "Ah, I forgot to say please -
—Excuse me, how to get to South Street? Then you can tell me, the old aunt said you must know etiquette."
"Well, South Street is quite far from here, it's just a straight road," I realized now and hurriedly pointed the direction to the other party, "just follow this string of telegraph poles. Are you lost?"
"Well, I'm lost," the other party still had a decent smile that was rarely seen among her peers. She was only eight years old but she smiled like a princess. She said she was lost, but she didn't even know she was lost.
He didn't look worried. He was probably more nervous than me. "I originally wanted to get rid of them, but ended up getting rid of myself. Just find South Street. Now they should be looking for me along that road."
"Oh," I nodded, "then hurry up and go."
"Wait a minute, the old aunt said that when you accept help, you have to repay others. This is also etiquette-" The little girl began to rummage around on her body, and then magically found a beautiful little bag from under the folds of the complicated clothes.
A lot of messy things were dug out and placed in front of me. There were chocolate beans, small glass balls, pen tips and erasers, and commemorative stamps with blue sea and blue sky printed on them. I was just thinking about how this loli put everything.
When they were putting them together, the other party pushed the colorful stamp over and said, "Here you go! You can write to me in the future, and you need to use stamps to write letters!"
But this is the first time I’ve heard of commemorative stamps!
"Now," I rummaged through my body. But I only took out a twisted piece of wood from my school uniform pocket. I vaguely remembered that I carved it secretly during class, and the raw material was the teacher's desk.
, "This is for you. The Zhu Bajie I carved...but it only has a rake, well, it only has the handle of a rake. You can treat it like Sun Wukong."
"Hehe, it's so ugly," the little girl smiled and took the crooked nail rake or golden cudgel I carved from it. "But it's pretty awesome. Thank you for the... um wood!"
After saying this, the other party ran away laughing and jumping up and down.
I was stunned for a moment, and I didn't come back to my senses until the other party disappeared behind the last telephone pole. Then I continued to study what the situation was now.
Then, the sky suddenly became dark.
It's not that the sky is dark because the sun goes down. In fact, the sun is still lazily hanging a little above the horizon. However, the sky is darkening rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. I look around in surprise. I find that everything in my sight is gradually darkening.
Covered by shadows, it is as if the effect of "light" in nature is suddenly offset by something, and as if many invisible and intangible things are blocking the sun. The spreading shadows spread so quickly that it is short.
In less than a minute, I felt as if I had entered midnight, and then an extremely strong sense of depression and the feeling of approaching danger suddenly came to me. I almost subconsciously wanted to forcefully use the void form to escape from this weird "
"Dream". But that feeling has passed in a flash. The shadows in the field of vision gradually receded. The setting sun once again coated the buildings with a layer of gold. As the last shadow left, a voice also spoke intermittently in my mind.
A flash: "...confirm...received...if...answer...from..."
In a trance, the lolita version of Qian Qian ran out of the house crying loudly, yelling that she was startled when it suddenly got dark. Her sister stood at the door with an exercise book in her hand and stared blankly at the sky. There was no one around.
The lights lit up one after another in the house. I stretched out my hand to catch Qian Qian who was about to fall down, but I felt a strong green light sweeping in front of my eyes.
Mixed noises came from a very far away place, and I felt as if I had passed through a twisted tunnel. When I opened my eyes again from the momentary dizziness, I saw a garden full of life and filled with light fragrance.
Behind him is a wall of white boulders covered with thick vines.
This is the Star Realm God Realm, a garden planted by the Supreme Goddess of Life.
I came out of a large group of fragrant divine vines dizzy, and almost tripped three times. I have to say that the goddess of life did a great job in greening her home. I have never seen anyone planting flowers.
I was so planted that I couldn’t even put my feet down when walking. Of course, considering that the three-inch dings can all fly, I was relieved. After entering the temple, I felt the breath of Ding Dong. Not far in front, a vine turned.
I saw the little one on the woven curtain. She was standing opposite Jia Jia, the goddess of life. Both of them had serious expressions. In the middle was a Go board made of plastic cloth. There were many people standing on the board.
The wild Dingdangs in green and red dresses were all standing at the placement points of the chessboard. Just now, a three-inch Dingzheng in a red skirt threw a little guy in a green skirt outside the chessboard. Dingdang was so bold that he did it.
Di Yi pointed at the chessboard: "Lulu! Get out of the car, right in front!"
The little green-clothed kid named Lulu held a small "car" flag in her hand and rushed towards the red kid on the opposite side with a loud scream. The two kids fought on the chess board for a while, and the thinner Lulu was beaten by the little kid.
The "cannon" that should be eaten by yourself is thrown out of the chessboard.
I:"……"
It felt like something was wrong.
"Wow, Sister Goddess! This is wrong! Lulu should throw Pachichi out!"
The Supreme Life Goddess smiled slightly, her face full of cunning: "Hmph, how can anyone not resist when they see an enemy charging towards them on the battlefield? The rule you mentioned is not magic in the first place - the two chess pieces should meet, and whoever is stronger will stay!
"
After saying this, the Supreme Life Goddess pointed at the chessboard: "Paqiqi! Cannons beat the horses, general!"
The three-inch Ding who was holding the small flag with the word "Pao" immediately ran forward happily, intending to climb over the back of the green-clad Dou Ding in front of him. The latter immediately forgot about the chess chess "Pao across the mountain" when he saw the opponent rushing towards him in red clothes.
"Following the rules, they hurriedly knocked each other over, and then the two little ones rolled to the ground together, laughing together.
I:"……"
Jia Jia: "..."
Dingdang: "On the battlefield! On the battlefield! You can't use it as a springboard for the enemy!"
The bean sprouts on the chessboard finally became completely confused. They threw away the small flags of the carriages, horses and cannons in their hands, and began to laugh and fight in a ball. The five-yuan plastic chessboard was instantly crumpled into a big ball, and the goddess of supreme life sat on it.
Dangling in mid-air: "It's the right thing to do! The rules just now are really unrealistic at all!"
Dingdang happily flipped somersaults in the air: "It's just that, it's not scientific, it's not magic! But Dingdang said it was very interesting when he saw Jun playing this..."
"How did he play?"
"Stack the chess pieces and build a castle."
I suddenly felt ashamed and couldn't bear it anymore. I walked out and waved to a group of wild Ding Dong, a domestic Ding Dong and a Super Ding Dong: "Hey, everyone is playing?"
My domesticated Dingdang immediately rushed over happily: "Ajun is here! Has Ajun finished talking with Father God? Ajun is here to teach the goddess sister how to play chess and build a castle with chess pieces!"
I continued to feel so ashamed that I would never do something like this in the fourth grade again! Especially not in front of Dingdang.
The Supreme Life Goddess glanced at me. She was obviously the same three-inch girl who was only one millet taller than Dingdang, but she nodded with a mysterious look on her face: "Ha, it seems you just went there for a walk."
