This is an alley, can find ten years ago frequently, now actually already in the old lane that the K city is unable to search, the motley one-story house and uneven flagging demonstration this lane had many ten years of times, the flavor and one generation of time from the lane dissipate slowly for each corner of flavor that the person survives, made each be used to the tall buildings and urbanite of quick rhythm life sufficiently receives the feelings inexplicably, then stood in the lane entrance dull, the deep breath, a sound sigh.
What sighed? The childhood time of perhaps being elapsed, that was pounded the head by one chalk suddenly, then shouted angrily by the teacher in charge „XX you to I behind the standing classroom go to” the childhood.
On the bumpy cement wall wrote one line to look for several years, moreover planned to look at grasping heart flexure liver the turtle crawling chalk character of a lifetime, many characters also replaced with the Pinyin: flatter jun is the big sha egg! Xu Qianqian liu.
Vaguely recorded that day to snatch some childhood friend little girl class Chinese meal half steamed stuffed bun, because curious female student has eaten the thing has the different flavor, then her entire day was angry. The matter that completely had forgotten appears slowly in this moment: This is I with some are suspected since childhood has the hyperactive little girl flat and thin pieces in innumerable piffle.
Has transmitted many years ago the lane deep place resounds in evening times, and until now still occasionally in summon of ear reverberation: „An Jun! Went home to eat meal!”
I looked at a loss to lane deep place, memory still flung about between two pictures, side was Star Domain God's Domain Goddess of Life shrine. Another side is in this memory the clear incomparable motley alley, I do not know why will jump from Star Domain God's Domain to this several years ago place suddenly, can only determine that the present all were exceptionally real, make an effort to pinch face. Not is really pain, perhaps this is only fine dreamland, but falling to the enemy in, short-time perhaps could not find the means of waking up obviously normally once in a while.
However does not feel anxious or restless, perhaps...... Um, several years ago started to lack the mind.
„An Jun, An Jun! You are in a daze! Elder Sister Chen Qian asked you to go home to eat meal!”
Suddenly from behind transmits a clear delightful call, making me sober from short being lost in thought. I turn head to look surprisedly, at present is a wear cloddish autumn in the winter the elementary school uniform, is gripping the lax two vulnerable point, the hair already the somewhat disorderly thin and small maid servant. The hair of little girl is bringing withered and yellow, because plays insanely appears chaotic, because the cheek weather cold and frozen blushing, under the nose also two lighten Jingjing's water-damaged, only then 8 or 9-year-old Little Girl. Now looks from beginning to end of undistinguished appearance, is very big besides the vigor almost not the highlight that is worth paying attention, only has that pair of eyes, became bursting with life juicy bright. Vaguely can see years later this is pair of how nimble and resourceful beautiful big eyes, I look at present Qianqian of this Loli version lost. Suddenly thought one have the vision of initial investment really: Several years later this girl becomes is so attractive?
„One can be in a daze, Teacher must let behind your standing classroom!”
From beginning to end is full of the boy style Little Girl to entrain my arm stand forth. Then just took a step to stop, probably suddenly remembers any matter, an insane alienation in the dirty small book bag turns.
She turns out half steamed stuffed bun in my hands: „Gives you! Do not eat!”
Then when I am also in a daze she is a tuck dive, fishes out a small plastic bag from the book bag, inside impressively is a big group fragrant-flowered garlic egg: „I feared that the stuffing has sprinkled, dug out to put in the plastic bag, you one will fill in the steamed stuffed bun to eat was good, how I was intelligent you to be in a daze! Hurried to eat, finished eating went home to eat meal!”
I: „......” Vaguely recorded that year that day to have such one to come, I ran away the Qianqian beast magnificence Lili resolution to wrap greatly to me bring half steamed stuffed bun, at that time were does?
I am nipping steamed stuffed bun skin leisurely, a fragrant-flowered garlic egg, the look is in a daze proceeds to walk with the little girl flat and thin piece, across the familiar obsolete alley, was hearing the vulnerable point that the moist cold old room flavor, Qianqian jumps is flinging about at present, I looked down my body, one and Qianqian equally cloddish elementary school uniform, the chest rubbed a black, the pants corner/horn also escaped the line, the sleeve cuff is ripped open a Xiaokouzi sewing with the shoddy craftsmanship got up the Elder Sister's needlework craftsmanship before 15 years old was horrible to look.
In the dizzy condition, oneself had been getting that by Qianqian in the family|home that in memory turns yellow slowly, the familiar red brick wall, the cement wall waist line, the entrance also has foster father personally with the motorcycle slopeway that the cement builds, fell the paint on the single fan iron gate to paste layer by layer old times old lucky character, the two sides old spring festival couplets turned into faint yellow, the hand touch on Kerala downward fall the starch and slime, the foster father mother who once was alive in this lane was slightly had the name „great person”, did business, has the company, in that did business also very much in the age that was easy to get rich to fish. Does not know the several pot of gold/metal, but had still not left this them to live in 20-30 years of alley. Stands has seen finally old iron gate at the same time before this leaf of several years ago I a little feel helpless unexpectedly, long time put out a hand to pat the racket in the gate. Finally the side young maid servant gets up immediately: „An Jun you ate silly! Own family|home also knocks on a door Elder Sister Chen Qian! Opens the door! I came back! An Jun ate the steamed stuffed bun to eat silly!”
The iron gate opens, on a face still brought naivete 13-14 years old girl to be the self-made apron is appearing before the gate, first is lifts the hand to shoot familiar and easy to my head on, then greeted Qianqian to pass through the gate: „Today eats here, uncle aunt told me, first washes the hands, in the evening eats to braise the cake An Jun you to stand silly doing, hurries to wash the hands to eat meal, plays on the road blindly!”
I in dizzy situation Loli version by Loli version the elder sister and Qianqian of small age of dragging dining table, in the main room saw that the picture of foster father mother also hangs on the wall this group photo has placed shadow fortress now, by imperial guards day and night guard, if no them, perhaps did not have the present Empire state head. The elder sister places nearby two tablewares the dinner table as usual first, then gives two small filling a bowl with rice of crying for food. Then she mentioned the matter that two years of plan had moved, father and mother once in bought to here very far place have wrapped house, Qianqian of Loli version got angry at that time, afterward I with her after the dining table decide moved must meet. Also agreed the night of ten years of month after next circle to eat the candied fruit in the summit of purple banning together, we drew the hook, pledged, and took braising the cake afterward the elder sister compelled us to eat the faith token as the faith token.
I returned probably thoroughly the several years ago conditions, although always want to try to tell the Qianqian actually ten years later they do not have a reunion on the summit of purple banning, but is eats two money element pancakes on the summit of experiment building every day together......
After finishing eating the food, helped to tidy up tableware, washed dishes to clean the table, completed these elder sisters also to be busy at own schoolwork. But Qianqian casually looked for a small gadget to deceive inside room to play by me, I run up to the entrance to sit am in a daze, look at the lane end the setting sun in the western sky, all are quiet. In several years ago old lane could not have heard for several years later the car(riage) incoming vehicle of same place toward, me lowered the head slightly to dig out several fingernail, then faced forward to walk along the lane, thought that if this were fine dreamland, that hasn't waked to the present?
Passes through the lane most depends on the families of street time. In my sudden heart moves, returns to a leaf of front gate that the body knocked just to pass by: „Fat! Fat! I ask you to play Oh!”
Really, enough after 34 minutes, still nobody replied!
I start to associate to anything. Knocks household by household along lane others, nobody. This lane is spatial!
„I go, jumped...... my Mumbled to think aloud directly inadequately to Silent Hill from God's Domain”. But did not feel that has infiltrates the person, after is haunted this matter to my such really suffices to threaten inadequately, what naturally is most important was sees in the family|home to have Ghost to drill frequently to be already used to it on the wall.
Walked one to come out from the lane again, I started to analyze this what's the matter, racked brains ten minutes of result is I almost digging out half gets down the blockhead telephone pole of alley entrance, however when have not thought clearly, clear rose, having the girl sounds of some tender aura to pass from behind suddenly: „How Hey! goes to South Street to walk Ah?”
I turn head, discovered one behind do not know when stood seemed with Loli version Qianqian almost big small girl, was having the long hair, put on one seems very attractive white foreign-style clothing, the head also wears once the sending band of quite fashionable belt net bag, opposite party that complex appeared with the Doll same small skirt with the surroundings motley old lane is incompatible, girl that in the lane that in the impression lived in may not put on really like this surrounding area several in bear children together had been drilled to come out with me by Qianqian, what wore clothes to dare in one group of wild girls who the ground swayed back and forth. Boors, like at present this putting on just like Princess, perhaps cannot surpass in this alley life cycle for 30 minutes.
„Hello, how should not be in a daze the Oh! South Street to walk Ah?” not well-known girl to stamp the feet, then suddenly remembers the spitting tongue that anything resembles, shows a faint smile with me, „, I forgot saying that please ask how South Street walked Ah? like this you to tell me, the old aunt said that must have good manners the meter.”
„Volume, South Street may be far to here, but is an enfilade,” I then responded that was too busy to refer to the direction to the opposite party, „along this slid the telephone pole to proceed is, the words said that you did become lost?”
„Um, has become lost,” the opposite party was still having that type in the appropriate smile that in the contemporaries basically cannot see, has likely Princess that eight -year-old appearance actually smiles obviously, on her mouth was saying have become lost, appearance that from the start has not actually been worried about, nerve thick perhaps is fiercer than me, „wants to throw off their, finally flung not to have oneself. Found South Street to be good, now they should put in order along that road look for me.”
„,” My nodded, „that your quick past.”
„You and other meetings, old aunt had said accepts the help to the person repay, this is also etiquette” small girl starts to upturn to look in the body, then pleats from that pile complex clothes under mysteriously discovers an attractive packet, turns out a big pile of everything in disorder thing to place in front of me from inside, there is a marble-shaped chocolate, has the small bulb, has the writing skill and rubber, seal the commemorative stamp of blue sea blue sky, how I just am wanting this Loli what thing toward together to put the opposite party to fill a that colorful postage stamp, „gives you this! Later can write to me, writes a letter to use the postage stamp!”
But I first time hear useful commemorative stamp!
„,” I also flipped on the body conveniently. Actually only pulls out together the blockhead block disorderly from the school uniform pocket, I vaguely record this is being attended class carve secretly, the raw material is the Teacher teacher's desk, „this gives you. Zhubajie that I carve...... However light raker, volume, light raker, you with it, when Sun Wukong looks.”
„Hee hee, is really ugly,” Little Girl received the crooked toothed rake or golden cudgel that its Second Brother I have carved with a smile, „is very fierce, thank you...... Volume. Blockhead!”
Spoke these words, the opposite party brings to laugh heartily, ran vivaciously far.
My expression stares, vanishes a bar grating to the opposite party behind the last telephone pole recovers. Then continues to study now is any situation.
Then, weather suddenly dark.
It is not because Sun descends the mountain, but weather is gloomy, in fact Sun still lazily hung in the horizon above point position, is the sky actually by the naked eye obvious speed fast tarnish, I observe the situation all around surprisedly. Discovered that in the line of sight all in gradually was covered by the shadow, probably „light” the effect in nature suddenly west to vanishing was the same by some type east, cannot see the thing that cannot feel to cover the sunlight probably, the shadow that spreads spreads is so rapid. Short one minute is less than I felt that probably entered the midnight to be ordinary, then. The feeling that the extremely intense depression and dangerous thing approach has welled all of a sudden up, my almost subconsciously must forcefully using the void shape is separated from this type strangely „dreamland”. However that feeling dodged to pass, the shadow in field of vision has drawn back gradually, the setting sun gives the building to cover a gold-rimmed, but leaves along with the last shadow, a sound also off and on flashes past in own mind: „...... Confirmation...... Receiving...... If...... Reply...... coming from......”
Qianqian of Loli version cried to run from the family|home, is shouting a moment ago the sudden darkness time had a scare, the elder sister grabbed one volume of drill books to stand in the entrance looks at the day at a loss, in all around unmanned houses the bright lights, I put out a hand one after another Qianqian that wanted to catch must throw down shortly, actually the feeling eye a while ago the green glare swept across.
The diverse and confused noise floats from very remote place, I felt that I have passed through a tunnel of distortion probably, waits to open both eyes from the instantaneous dizziness once more, what heaving in sight is a business abundant, is filling light fragrance garden.
Is one is actually covering the white giant stone wall of growing thickly vine.
Here is Star Domain God's Domain, highest Goddess of Life personally planter garden.
I am completely muddled come out from big group delicate fragrance pleasant divine nature vine, middle three times were almost tripped, has saying that Goddess of Life did simply to own afforestation is good, I have not seen have a flower seed to the situation of walking not having puts one's foot down, naturally considered that flock of shrimp each will fly also to feel relaxed, after entering the shrine range, I felt that the Della's aura, on the ahead not far place, transferred the antependium that the vine has woven together becomes I on seeing that little brat, her with highest Goddess of Life Jiajia relative, but stood, their expression. Serious, the middle spread one with the Chinese chess checkerboard that the plastic sheeting made, on the checkerboard is standing has worn wild Della of green and red two color one-piece dresses, stood in beginning of checkerboard, just wore the shrimp of red skirt to put on little brat of green skirt to throw outside the checkerboard, Della on a bold air-drying cloud finger of checkerboard: „Lulu! Dispatches a vehicle, front!”
The green clothes adzuki bean Ding hand of named Lulu is raising „car(riage)” small flag, was yelling fires into opposite red bean Ding, two tiny tots ripped Palestine on the checkerboard likely, quite thin and small Lulu should be thrown the checkerboard by „artillery that” oneself ate.
I: „......”
The feeling has appearance where does not suit.
„, Sister goddess! This should not Lulu throw Qi Qi to Oh! to Oh!”
Highest Goddess of Life shows a faint smile, on the face full is sly: „Snort, where in the battlefield sees enemy to clash to have does not revolt, that rule Magic that you said should not two board game pieces meet, whose strength is big who stays behind!”
Said this, a highest Goddess of Life finger of checkerboard: „Qi Qi! The artillery hits the horse, General!”
Lifts „artillery” the shrimp of character pennant to run to go forward immediately jubilantly, planned that carried on the back to cross from present green clothes bean Ding, the latter looked that the opposite party put on the red clothes flushed to forget Chinese chess immediately „artillery half” the rule, was thrown into confusion mixed a somersault the opposite party, then two tiny tots rolled the ground together, hee hee Haha laughed.
I: „......”
Jiajia: „......”
Della: „In battlefield! In battlefield! Cannot to the enemy, when the springboard scatters!”
Bean Ding Men on checkerboard thoroughly is finally chaotic, in the hand small flag of carriages and horses artillery throws, starts hee hee Haha to make into one group, five money plastic sheeting likely checkerboards instantaneously rubbing a big group, highest Goddess of Life sit in the midair swayingly: „Early this is right! The rule was not really realistic!”
Della in airborne turns a somersault happily again and again: „Is, is unscientific, not Magic! However Della looked An Jun plays this time said very much interestingly......”
„How does he play?”
„Piles the board game piece, piles the castle.”
I felt immediately ashamed, could not bear greatly again, walked on own initiative waves to one crowd of wild Della and domestic Della as well as super Della: „Yo, everybody is playing Ah?”
My domestic Della clashes immediately overjoyed: „An Jun comes! An Jun and did Father God finish talking? An Jun teaches Sister goddess to play Chinese chess, with board game piece pile of castles!”
I continue greatly ashamed, later did not do this elementary school fourth grade the matter! Especially cannot be in front of Della's to do.
Highest Goddess of Life looked at my one eyes, is only obviously higher than Della a small grain of rice the same shrimp, on the face actually wrapped in a shroud of obscurity appearance nodded: „Ha, it seems like you just went to pass one to say!”
I was shocked immediately. ( to be continued )
