The place where my master and I have lived for more than ten years is actually Huilong Town, Da'an District, Zigong City. In the past, the transportation was not developed, so driving took a long time. Now it seems that Zigong is not very far from Chengdu, only two or three hours at most.
, but even so, I haven’t gone back for a long time, because the master is not here, and there is no point in going back.
The next day I said hello to Su Daji and the others and went out. I carried a backpack, a white T-shirt and a pair of jeans and went out. After I went out, I took a taxi to the bus station in Chengdu. It was already nine o'clock in the morning.
It was around 1:00, so I bought a ticket to Zigong and got on the bus. Of course, there was an episode on the way, which was the Tianzi Sword security check. But in the end, I showed my ID of the Supernatural Incident Investigation Team and was allowed to go.
The time on the bus is actually very boring. The only fun I had before was sleeping, but now I have just fallen asleep. Even if I am a good sleeper, I can’t sleep like this. I am not a pig. The roads now are much better than before.
Yes, I still remember that when I first went to college, it took me an afternoon to get from Zigong to Chengdu, but now I can get there in two hours.
As soon as I got off the bus, a wave of heat hit me. It was noon, the hottest time, and there were not many people in the station. I walked out of the station and looked around. Sure enough, the changes had been great. There were more tall buildings.
And the streets and stuff look a lot better.
I didn’t stop there, so I hailed a taxi and went directly to Huilong Town, Da’an District. The taxi driver looked to be in his forties and was very enthusiastic. As soon as I got in the car, I asked, “Young man, are you coming back from work outside?”
I smiled and nodded. This master was very enthusiastic. Later, when I talked about it, he turned out to be from Da'an District and from Tuanjie Town next to Huilong Town. We had a good conversation for a while.
The master drove very fast, and after arriving at Huilong Town, he said hello and left. Huilong Town is not big, and the total population in the countryside is only more than 30,000. There are only more than 10,000 people in the town.
Thousands of people may sound like a lot, but when you think about it, it's actually not much. There is a cross road in the middle of Huilong Town, and then there are four blocks in the southeast, northwest, and the highest house is only five floors. It does not look like much.
good.
The place where I got off the bus was East Street. I am very familiar with Long Town this time. After all, it is such a big place. I have been here for more than ten years. People in the four streets of southeast, northwest and northwest basically know me, but I
When I got off the bus, those people just glanced at me and didn't say hello. It's not that they weren't enthusiastic, it was just that I had changed too much. I had only been back four or five times since college, and I had never walked around on the street.
I felt nostalgic looking at the streets around me. The last time I came back was when I saw the letter my master left for me. Then I went to Harbin and met Cui Zuofei. It must have been four years, and it all passed in a blink of an eye.
Yes, it’s true.
I shook my head and touched my chin. Fortunately, I took the time to beard this morning and was quite energetic. The place where I got off the bus was a canteen. I still remember that an old man named Grandpa Liu was running the store here. I used to use it when I was a child.
I often went to this canteen to steal snacks, but Grandpa Liu was very kind to me and would only say a few words to me every time. Of course, he was the one I was most afraid of at the time, and he would call me Ha Bao every time.
I scratched my head and walked to the door. I saw that the person looking after the store turned out to be a little girl about twenty years old. She was not very beautiful, with a few freckles on her face and a little pigtail. I asked the little girl:
"Little girl, give me a cigarette."
"Yes, handsome man, which one do you want?" This little girl spoke in Sichuan dialect. I only got used to speaking Mandarin in Harbin, and I haven't changed it since. This is good.
"Take a piece of Zhonghua." I smiled and took out seven hundred-dollar bills from my wallet. The girl smiled and said, "Handsome guy, we don't have Zhonghua. The best is the 21-pack of Yuxi.
"
"Bring me four." I took out another two hundred yuan. The girl nodded, turned around and turned it over for me. I also walked in. It was a little damp and had a faint musty smell.
He asked casually: "Girl, why isn't Grandpa Liu here?"
"Oh, you're talking about my grandpa. He asked me to die last year. You still recognize him? Handsome guy, you don't seem to be from here." This girl was quite straightforward. She just said "die to me". I laughed a little.
I said in my hometown dialect: "Who is talking about it? I am talking about Huilong Town, but I haven't been back for a long time." I was also a little disappointed, thinking that the old man Liu who was the most vicious in my mind was already dead.
,time flies.
This little girl was very quick with her hands and feet, and she quickly dug out four Yuxi. I took the cigarette, opened it and handed it to the little girl a pack and said, "I feel guilty for not having time to ask Grandpa Liu to smoke a pack of cigarettes. I hope the girl
You can burn this bag to him next time you burn incense, thank you."
"Oh, it's okay." The little girl took the cigarette and nodded, and I walked out of the canteen. I definitely didn't buy so many cigarettes to smoke myself, but to give them to the people on these streets, no?
To show off, my master and I were very poor back then, and people on the street often helped us. Although I can’t give much in return, I have to be grateful as a human being, and I still have to hand over a pack of cigarettes.
Then I started visiting every house along the street. I couldn’t name many of them, but when they saw me, they looked at me and called me by my nickname. These neighbors used to call me
Little bastard, because I was one of the naughtiest kids on the street. It was common for me to sneak around and watch little girls take a bath.
These neighbors were very enthusiastic and invited me to come in and sit for a while. I didn’t put it off and they all went in to chat. They all said that I had grown up and was successful. I just giggled. I suddenly thought about it, this could be considered my homecoming in glory.
, If I had known I would come back without wearing a T-shirt, I should have bought some good clothes, but if I think about it carefully, in front of these simple neighbors, I guess T-shirts would feel the same as those luxurious clothes, which means they are more expensive.
, just wear something that can keep you warm.
At first I thought that the cigarettes I bought would not be enough, but obviously I overthought it, because many people in this town don't smoke, and even if they do smoke, they still smoke Laoye cigarettes. Many people insist on giving them because I am too enthusiastic.
They, they accepted it out of face, but they were still very happy. Basically, they would say that the little bastard had become successful and even knew how to give away cigarettes.
