At 2 PM, the four of them boarded the train.
The hard sleeper compartment on the train is a small compartment for six people, and each bed is less than a meter wide.
The two boys chose the middle bunk, leaving the girl in the lower bunk.
Feng Linhao and Yu Mobai went to the restroom after putting down their luggage.
On the way, Feng Linhao shook his head with regret and sighed, "If only I were younger."
Still savoring the memory?
Yu Mobai patted him on the shoulder, "So you didn't listen to a single word of what I said at school?"
"How so?"
"Why do you insist on getting involved with those cosmetics? Wouldn't it be better to find a high-quality sapling when school starts?"
Feng Linhao thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "It's just that distant water can't quench immediate thirst."
At this stage, the saplings are truly innocent and naive.
Most of them have never been cultivated by anyone or watered; they are incredibly clean.
Especially the sense of accomplishment from letting it grow bigger little by little in your hands, wow, it's absolutely wonderful.
Unlike now, if you want to find a clean sapling, you'd probably have to line up at a kindergarten.
"Once school starts, no matter how you water or prune it, that's all your responsibility."
Yu Mobai patted him on the shoulder, "Brother, learn from him."
"And you, Mo Bai, who do you like, Mu Shu or Yi Ke?"
Feng Linhao shook the watering equipment and put it away. "I guess you can like it if you want?"
Yu Mobai chuckled lightly, without answering the question.
Why aren't you saying anything?
"Does my brother see further than you?"
"How so?"
"You want a sapling, but I want a whole forest."
Upon hearing this, Feng Linhao was dumbfounded. "What do you mean? You want them all?"
...
Inside the private room, the two girls sat by the window, looking out, and neither of them spoke.
The two voices approached from afar and stopped at the doorway.
Two men walked in and naturally sat on the lower bunk.
The two chatted amongst themselves for a while, then seemed to only then notice the two girls.
"Hey, you two girls, want to come over and chat for a bit?"
"It's so unsafe for you two girls to take the train."
"Are you going to school? Which school?"
Dong Yike frowned, glanced at Ji Mushu, and cursed, "Who the hell are you? Do I know you?"
"Hey, girls, don't swear. Besides, you'll get to know each other if you chat a bit."
A man leaned closer. "We mean no harm."
Ji Mushu hugged her knees tightly, her face tense. When she saw the man getting closer, she moved herself a little further in.
Seeing this, the man smiled and moved even closer.
Dong Yike strode over to Ji Mushu, sat down next to her, and shielded her inside, saying, "Get lost, I don't know you."
"Hey, this is pretty interesting."
Just as he was about to continue, Yu Mobai walked in from the door and happened to see this scene.
She then swaggered over, placing her foot directly on the edge of the lower berth to block the man's view. "Which carriage are you from?"
Who are you?
One of the men asked.
"You're sitting on my bunk, who the hell are you calling me?"
Yu Mobai flicked his cigarette ash, and with a cigarette dangling from his lips, said with a nonchalant expression.
Feng Linhao also squeezed in from behind. Seeing this, the two men didn't say much, just chuckled awkwardly and left in a sorry state.
"Pah, don't you even know your own worth?"
Feng Linhao cursed.
"You two are finally back."
Dong Yike breathed a slight sigh of relief. She quietly wiped her damp little hands on the bed and said to Ji Mushu with a grin, "Quick, thank you, sis."
"I didn't ask you for help."
Ji Mushu's expression softened somewhat, but she didn't even glance at her, giving her a cold snort and still not a pleasant look, "Why did you have to get involved?"
Dong Yike curled her red lips and returned to her seat, saying, "I knew you couldn't say anything nice."
"If you could spit out ivory, you'd be captured and studied."
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Yu Mobai put the several buckets of instant noodles he had just bought on the table. "Are you alright?"
"I'm right here, what could possibly happen?"
Dong Yike said angrily, "This is like the farmer and the snake, a dog biting Lü Dongbin! You lousy dog, don't you think?"
Ji Mushu glanced at her briefly, but surprisingly didn't say anything more.
The train's swaying motion was soothing and made me want to sleep.
After eating instant noodles, the four of them played cards for a while before finally climbing into their own beds and falling asleep.
When I woke up, it was already the next day.
After getting off the bus, as planned, the four of them first found a hotel to drop off their luggage, and then went to have a good meal.
For several days in a row, the four of them ate and drank happily.
The two girls, in particular, were a little worried before setting off, but once they arrived at their destination, they completely relaxed.
There is a temple in the center of the town, which is the place with the most visitors in the whole town.
Many people call this tree the "Tree of Love".
Beneath a century-old tree, countless wish slips were tied.
However, many people jokingly refer to it as the "hookup tree".
Because quite a few of the labels above are indeed various contact methods...
Many young couples were writing their wishes down with pens and tying them to the trees with red ropes.
"Shall we write one too?"
Dong also suggested.
She found some banknotes and handed them to several people.
Without a second thought, Yu Mobai quickly finished writing and hung it on the tree.
What did you write?
Feng Linhao sneaked over to take a look, but Yu Mobai kicked him away, saying, "Get out of here, what did you write?"
"Hehehe, what I wrote was, I hope to meet someone here on a 419."
What does 419 mean?
Dong Yike crept closer, "Why don't I understand?"
"Don't listen to his nonsense."
Yu Mobai laughed and cursed, "A one-night stand is a one-night stand, why the hell are you pretending to be so proper?"
"for, one, night."
Ji Mushu looked disgusted. "Mouse, I never knew you had such a talent for English."
Feng Linhao remained silent and quietly hung his wish on the most conspicuous branch.
"And what about you? What did you write?"
Ji Mushu turned her head and asked again.
"This is a wish; if you say it out loud, it won't come true."
Yu Mobai said mysteriously, "Why don't you tell me what you wrote?"
"roll."
Ji Mushu walked past him expressionlessly, even stepping on his foot as if she didn't care.
"Hey, hey, hey, come look at this!"
Dong Yike shouted excitedly, holding up a wishing slip, "Look, it says on this that I was a simp in my past life, and I'll be a scumbag in this life."
Yu Mobai's smile froze on his face instantly...
