The Cliff of Eternal Sun

Where does this dream start?He stood on a long road filled with white mist, and looked around for a long time in a daze, until the fog in front of him gradually dissipated, and he saw a tall hawthorn tree.

This tree grew in the yard where he lived since he was a child, and grew taller in the corner every year.He stood under the tree, looked up at the sparse yellow leaves above, and the red and orange hawthorns on the branches, like little red lanterns in winter.He put his hands together and rubbed them together, then blew another breath into his palms, as if he had made up his mind, he took a step forward and hugged the tree, put one foot on the trunk, and climbed up.

The best and reddest hawthorns are on the top of the tree, and he has to climb up to pick the sweetest hawthorns for Ji Suian.

Ji Suian, thinking of this name, he felt sore and warm in his heart, his lips were slightly pursed, and he couldn't help showing a little smile.

They were not friends, not even acquaintances at all.In the past two years, he and Ji Suian had talked twice.

The first time was in the sports meeting in the last semester of the second year of high school. He signed up for the 3000-meter long-distance race, and Ji Suian was the recorder of that event. 3000 meters, seven and a half laps around the playground, in these seven and a half laps, he can see Ji Suian eight times in total.Every meeting is like the achievement of a goal and a new starting point. With such a little skill that belongs to him alone, he was the first to reach the finish line.

After reaching the finish line, he stopped with his legs on his hands, his eyelashes soaked with sweat, and before he had time to wipe it off, his first reaction was to look at Ji Suian.Ji Suian will not be delighted by his victory. In his eyes, Wei Mu is no different from any other runner. There was a strange feeling.He was writing my grades, and while his heart was beating violently, Wei Mu thought, what Ji Suian wrote was my grades.

Volunteers on the side of the runway urged him to leave, walked to the side, and he straightened up. At this time, he still didn't feel too tired, but his legs were out of his will, and he responded spontaneously.After excessive exercise, his feet were like stepping on cotton, and he felt his knees go limp after taking a step forward, and he knelt down on the runway very firmly. Only then did he hear his own rough and hasty voice. gasp.

Dizzy, he saw a hand stretched out in front of him, he raised his head, looked up along that hand, and saw Ji Suian's face.Sunshine was behind Ji Suian, as if outlining him with a layer of golden light, his brows were slightly frowned, and his voice was a bit cold: "Are you okay?"

Wei Mu's heart was beating extremely hard, and he couldn't tell whether it was because of the long-distance running just now or something else, so he put his hand on the side of his leg and gently rubbed it.He almost mustered up all his courage before he was about to raise his hand, but at this moment, a few students in his class ran over calling his name, Wei Mu's hand trembled, as if it had been smashed It was like a shady secret, but just for this little trance, Ji Suian had already retracted his hand, stood at the finish line again, and waited for the next classmate to arrive.

The sky in October is already high and wide, the blue is pale and far away, but the surrounding wind is still scorching hot. Wei Mu is far away from other students, sitting on the stone pier under the fence on the edge of the playground, where no one knows, he Quietly looking at Ji Suian not far away.The hand that was originally going to reach out was placed by his side. After a long time, he raised that hand, stretched it out in front of his eyes, opened it, and slowly held it again. Repeated this several times, the numbness in his hand finally disappeared. gradually dispersed.

Of course he has a secret, a shady secret, from a certain night a year ago, about Ji Suian, about the young love.

Wei Mu signed up for high school by himself, and it was a little far away from home. He planned to live on campus at first, so that he would not have to sleep in that windowless hut every night, and he could even lie on the bed and watch the stars, but after school started However, he failed to live there because the accommodation fee was too expensive, nearly one thousand a semester, and Wei Mu couldn't bear it, so he rode a bicycle back and forth for more than an hour every day.

It was a very ordinary night, everything was the same as usual, but when he got home and was about to take out the key to open the door, he found that the key was left at the school.Sometimes Liang Yan was on night shift and didn't come back. Wei Mu sat at the door for a while, and then decided to go back to school by bike to get the keys.

At that time, it was past ten o'clock in the night. From the outside, the huge buildings in the school were just a dark mass without a ray of light.Wei Mu didn't bring a flashlight, and planned to go back quickly in the dark, but when he walked into the hall, he heard a burst of music.The voice came from the corridor of the International Department. Wei Mu looked over and found that the lights were still on there.

The corridors of the school are connected to each other. Although it is farther away from there, you can also turn to his classroom.Wei Mu hesitated for a second, but decided to take the bright path.

At the end of the corridor is a sunken rest area, and a staircase spirals downward, leading to the art, sports and technical teaching area on the basement floor.Next to the stairs is a vertical bookcase built against the wall, surrounded by several sofas, and a piano is placed on the bottom table.

Now there are people sitting on those sofas, Wei Mu's gaze swept over them, and finally landed on the person sitting in front of the piano.The reason at first was very simple. The light was hanging above the piano, right above the man's head, and that was the brightest place in the whole school at this time.The man was wearing a school uniform T-shirt, with his hands on the keys, playing a little carelessly, but the light shone from the top of his head wantonly, covering him from the beginning to the end, making him almost like the light itself in some moments Dazzling, the side face bathed in the light showed no expression, just looked down at the keys slightly, but it was so handsome that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

Standing by the fence upstairs, Wei Mu heard his own heart skip a beat.

Soon, the string of notes ended, the man put down his hand, and the people sitting next to him clapped and clapped. A boy stood up, his voice was a bit noisy in this silent night, he first cursed to express his surprise, and then said : "This is too good to hear, I knew you were the right one! That old boy insisted on changing our drama to an original soundtrack. I have been worrying about it for several days. Now I can sleep well! "

He stretched himself, and reached out to hug the man's shoulder: "You're done, let's go, go home!"

The man brushed his hand away, stood up and closed the piano cover, saying: "You go first, I'll go upstairs to get something."

The late-night performance was over, and the people below all stood up to take their bags and prepared to leave. Wei Mu turned and walked towards the corridor beside him. He was still thinking about the person playing the piano under the light all the way. I don't have any other thoughts, I just think that scene is dazzling and beautiful.He has never felt that anyone is so suitable to stand in the light like that person, and even the music flowing from his fingertips seems to be stained with light.

He entered the classroom in the dark, walked to his desk by moonlight, and found the key from the drawer.When he came out of the classroom with the key, he suddenly had a strange resistance in his heart. The door he was going to open with this key was no different from the environment he was in now, only black and boundless. The darkness...he used to seldom think about these things, and seldom felt aggrieved, but maybe the light around those people he saw just now was too dazzling, which made him suddenly realize how thick the darkness around him was all this way. .

Nothing can't help but be compared, and it is easy to feel wronged and sad when compared.Wei Mu quickly took a few deep breaths, a little annoyed that he couldn't help thinking about these things.

He didn't breathe out to the end, when a ball of light suddenly came from behind, Wei Mu was taken aback, and slowed down to look behind him.A man was walking a few steps behind him. It was the boy who was playing the piano just now. He was looking down at his mobile phone while walking. The light of the flashlight lifted up slightly, illuminating the way the two of them walked forward.

The light wasn't very bright, it was just a blur of orange. Wei Mu turned his head, and while walking forward, he looked down at the light under his feet, moving forward with him. Why, that group of light seemed to cast a shadow in his heart, that shadow was so huge that it almost swelled up his chest, full and sore.

Along the way, Wei Mu secretly looked back a few times. The boy was always looking at the phone intently, and never met his gaze. It seemed that the light was not raised on purpose, but just to illuminate himself. By the way, it was like Wei Mu.With such a calm attitude, Wei Mu tried again and again, but he didn't know how to speak.Soon, the two walked to the lobby one after the other. The boys who were in the rest area were still there, standing together and waiting for the person behind Wei Mu. After walking forward for a certain distance, Wei Mu turned his head , Seeing that the person had merged into the group of people, they left in another direction.

While sleeping that night, for the first time in a long time, Wei Mu didn't think of the little boy, and he didn't embark on the journey to find the sun again. For the first time, a ball of light appeared in his dream, vaguely, it was Warm orange, snuggled up to his feet, moving with him.

It was also from that day that Wei Mu had worries and secrets for the first time.

The second conversation between him and Ji Suian will not be until the second semester of the second year of high school.

When Wei Mu passed by the Central Theater, he was stopped by a teacher and asked him to help him go to Class [-], Grade [-], International Department, and call someone over.At that time, Ji Suian just entered the classroom, saw Wei Mu standing at the door, and asked casually, "Who are you looking for?" Wei Mu was so nervous that his forehead was dripping with sweat, and he stammered for a long time before he babbled out the person's name.

Ji Suian said "Oh", and while entering the classroom, he glanced back at Wei Mu.That glance was quick and casual, maybe it was just an unconscious glance, but Wei Mu's face burned up.

That day he finished talking to the boy named Yang Feng in a daze, and floated back to the classroom in a daze. He didn't listen to the next class, and kept thinking about Ji Suian with a slightly red face. The appearance of that sentence, he happily wrote a lot of sentences "Who are you looking for" on the paper, and then he remembered his reaction at that time, his mood was depressed for a moment, he felt that his performance was too bad, and he stuttered It's hard to tell, Ji Suian must think he is a fool.

He thought about the look that Ji Suian looked at him before entering the classroom, it seemed that there was a little more meaning in it, Wei Mu looked at the "who are you looking for" on the paper with some annoyance, and re-answered seriously in his heart Again: "Hello, I'm looking for Yang Feng."

Later, he secretly practiced that scene many times by himself, and even practiced self-introduction many times in advance. He thought that if Ji Suian talked to him again next time, he must behave better and stop acting like a Fool, you should say to him openly: "Hi Ji Suian, my name is Wei Mu."

But he never waited for such an opportunity, the most he did was stand in the corridor on the third floor, watching Ji Suian pass by in the hall below.It was like this until the winter when he was 17 years old, at the end of the last semester of high school, he heard a news that surprised him. Ji Suian from the International Department gave up his admission to foreign universities and signed up for the domestic college entrance examination.

He tossed and turned for several days, but still couldn't get rid of the little voice in his heart, try it, try it, tell him your name.Without any other purpose, just to tell him his name.

He climbed on the tree trunk and looked up at the bright red hawthorn hanging from the highest point. Behind the branches was the gray sky in winter.He grabbed the rough branch next to him with one hand, and kicked up with his feet vigorously.

He stood on a tall tree, his heart was full of joy.
