I'm in love with the sand sculpture at the same table

Jiang Shen, Gu Jin and the others played games until late last night.

When Jiang Shen woke up, Gu Jin was still asleep.

Gu Jin was sleeping on his stomach, with one arm resting on Jiang Shen's chest. His lower body was covered by a quilt, so he couldn't see what position he was in, but he was probably as elegant as usual.

Jiang Shen pulled his hand out of the quilt, grabbed Gu Jin's hand, and threw it out with a "slap".

This flick woke Gu Jin awake, he yawned, retracted the hand that was just thrown out, and rubbed his eyes.

"Morning, tablemate."

"Well, morning."

A temple fair is held on the third day of the annual long holiday in the town. The temple fair starts in the afternoon and ends after ten o'clock in the evening.

Gu Jin and Jiang Shen chose to start at 02:30 in the afternoon. The location of the temple fair is not far from Xiaowang Village, and it takes about three to ten minutes to walk there.

A few people were talking and laughing, and 10 minutes passed quickly.

There were a lot of people at the temple fair, and many people from other towns also came here admiringly, and even many people from the city.

Gu Jin told them roughly which places are fun and which places have delicious food in the whole temple fair.

"Let's go separately, come here to gather again at that time, and find a place to have dinner together."

"it is good!"

Several people spoke in unison, only Jiang Shen was still enlightened.

"Can't we go back to eat dinner?"

Gu Jin: "At the same table, you didn't read the group news, there are fireworks and lantern festivals here at night."

"Oh."

Gu Jin grabbed Jiang Shen's wrist and pulled him into the crowd.

"Where?"

"You'll know in a while."

Gu Jin pulled Jiang Shen, walked through the crowd, twisted and turned, and came to a small temple.

There is a shelf in front of the temple, and the shelf is full of red cloth ropes. There are some golden and silvery whites in the bright red.

Jiang Shen turned to look at Gu Jin and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Gu Jin was thinking elsewhere and didn't hear Jiang Shen's question. He turned around and ran to an old man's stall, and said a few words to him.

The old man nodded, and found a small silver-white lock from the stall, holding something like a nail in his other hand, carefully carving something on the small silver-white lock.

After a while, the old man handed the lock to Gu Jin, and said a few words to him. He nodded with a smile, and took another red cloth rope from the old man's booth.

Jiang Shen could see the mouth shape of this person's last words to the old man, which was "thank you".

Gu Jin ran up to Jiang Shen with the lock and showed him.

"What is this?" Jiang Shen turned over the lock, and there were two names engraved on it, "Gu Jin" on the left and "Jiang Shen" on the right.

Gu Jin grabbed Jiang Shen's wrist again, and pulled him across the steps in front of the temple, to the shelf.

He opened his palm: "Give it to me."

Jiang Shen slapped the lock in Gu Jin's hand without knowing why, and watched Gu Jin tie the red string to the lock, and then put the lock on the shelf.

Jiang Shen: "What do you mean?"

"Concentric lock!" Gu Jin said: "It's usually locked by lovers. If we two are brothers, let's treat it as a favor!"

Jiang Shen: "..."

Jiang Shen frowned: "Crazy."

He turned around, walked down the steps, and hid himself in the crowd at a slightly faster pace.

That kind of feeling, I can't put it into words, it's just that my heart is a little astringent, the kind of astringency that can't find a reason, can't find an excuse.

Jiang Shen was wearing a gray hooded jacket today, and there was a sea of ​​people wearing gray clothes at the temple fair. He put the hat on his head, blended into the crowd, and gradually disappeared.

There was a small supermarket at the entrance of the temple fair, and Jiang Shen stood at the entrance of the supermarket without knowing it.

He looked up at the signboard of the supermarket, "Tobacco, alcohol, sugar, tea".

The boss is sitting in a small counter. Under the glass counter, there are all kinds of cigarettes, arranged in several rows in various colors.

Standing opposite the boss, Jiang Shen said in a cold voice, "A pack of cigarettes."

"What cigarettes do you want, young man?"

"casual."

The boss's fingers tapped a few times on the top of the glass window.

"Whatever, whatever, this one." The boss reached into the window and took out a pack of red cigarettes: "This one, young people like to smoke this."

"lighter."

"okay."

Jiang Shen glanced at the price of cigarettes, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and opened WeChat. There were more than a dozen messages from Gu Jin. He didn't read them. He scanned the QR code next to him, grabbed the cigarettes and lighter, and said to the boss. He said: "Thank you."

Jiang Shen found a place where no one was around, tore open the cigarette case, pulled out a cigarette, held it in his mouth, paused for a while, and then lit it.

He took a deep breath, choking until he was dazed.

"Cough cough."

He had never smoked before, and he only knew that the smell of cigarettes was bad. He didn't expect that smoking would make people sick, so he only took two puffs before throwing it away.

The smell of smoke lingered in the mouth, astringent and disgusting.

With his hands in his pockets, he mingled into the crowd. After walking aimlessly for an unknown amount of time, he felt that the hat was a little stuffy, so he raised his hand to take it off, when suddenly someone grabbed his wrist behind him.

"Jiang Shen."

Jiang Shen was stunned, the voice had never called his name seriously.

He looked back at the boy behind him, expressionless, and asked coldly, "What are you doing?"

Gu Jin panted heavily, as if he had been looking for him for a long time.

"What do you mean?"

Jiang Shen: "What do I mean?"

There are a bit too many people in this area. Two big boys standing here will cause some inconvenience to the traffic.

Gu Jin's hand holding Jiang Shen's wrist did not let go, but it tightened.

Gu Jin dragged him to a place where no one was around.

"Why did you leave?" Gu Jin sniffed suddenly, lowered his head and sniffed only a fist away from Jiang Shen's neck, and frowned: "Are you smoking?"

"Are you alright?"

"Why do you smoke?"

"I want to smoke."

Gu Jin smiled with difficulty: "Didn't you say that the smell of cigarettes is annoying?"

"Well, I said it."

"I was afraid that you would bother me, so I quit smoking. Are you smoking again now?"

Jiang Shen raised his eyes to look at Gu Jin's eyes, those eyes that were always smiling, now seemed to panic.

"Have you quit smoking?"

"Ah."

The two looked at each other, neither feeling embarrassed.

After a while, Jiang Shen's voice became much gentler: "Brother Jin, I'm hungry."

"Huh?" Gu Jin was stunned for a while, then lowered his head and smiled, he raised his hand and rubbed Jiang Shen's hair: "Why are you acting like a child?"

Jiang Shen: "Get lost."

Jiang Shen gave Gu Jin a sideways glance, walked around him and walked elsewhere.

Gu Jin shook his head with a smile, turned around to catch up with Jiang Shen in two or three steps, looked at Jiang Shen's expressionless face again, and said, "It's getting late, let's go eat."

Gu Jin sent a message in the group.

Gu Jin: Let's gather, let's eat.

Seeing that everyone had typed "Received", Gu Jin pressed the lock screen button with his thumb, and put the phone into his pocket.

After a few seconds, the phone in his pocket rang again.

He took out his phone and looked at it.
