Oblivion

Kang Shen turned on the mobile phone beside the bed, the glaring light made him tilt his head in shock, he glanced roughly and then turned off the screen again.It was two o'clock in the morning, and this trouble wasted almost half a day.

The person next to him was still babbling, not feeling sleepy, so he wiped his eyes and braced himself to listen.

"I'm a little afraid of death. We can escape many things, but this is absolutely impossible."

"...Well, but you are still young." Kang Shen replied vaguely, covering his mouth to stop a yawn.

"It has nothing to do with being young, okay? There are many young seriously ill patients in the hospital. There was news a few days ago that a female college student stayed up all night and got sick. Then she got cancer. After entering the hospital, she never came out again. "Yu Wei made a gesture of snapping his fingers, but he was unlucky and couldn't hear the sound after rubbing several times.

Yu Wei pushed Kang Shen's chin with his head in depression, and Kang Shen's sleepy eyes, which were about to close, were startled open, "What's wrong?"

"Let's go to the hospital tomorrow." Yu Wei said suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Kang Shen was a little nervous.His little heart now, really doesn't want to be surprised again.

"Just go shopping, isn't tomorrow Saturday?" Yu Wei said.

"It's too late for others to hide, and you're still rushing to find the bad luck?!" Kang Shen was a little speechless.

Yu Wei narrowed his eyes, turned over, and lay flat on his own ground, the cold over there made him shiver, "Go to sleep."

"Hey! Let's go tomorrow." Kang Shen brought him back, and this time he really became completely quiet.

Yu Wei's original intention was to go to a place like a hospital to experience death.

Those white buildings are transition stations, churches leading to heaven, and earth temples leading to hell.

As long as a person walks there, walking around with feelings, he will always have a lot of thoughts when he comes out.

Even if we don’t really face death, we can uncover the half-width veil of mysterious death there. Although what we feel is what we want to feel, and it’s all filtered by art or exaggerated or despised. better than nothing.

But in the end, the two of them still didn't complete such an experiment that was very intentional and very positive.

Yu Wei was sitting in a small, refreshing ice drink shop exuding a literary and artistic atmosphere. He propped his chin on his left hand, and looked at the endless traffic and bustling crowds outside.

There was a child in a daze trying to cross the zebra crossing, but the red light hadn't been changed. He watched coldly as a woman standing behind grabbed the child by the collar in time;

In the middle of a long queue at the crossroads next to him, a rough middle-aged man in a suit poked his head out of the car window impatiently, opening and closing his mouth, with an agitated and angry expression. He was not at all sorry for the suit and leather shoes. ;

Looking not far away, there seems to be a dispute in a corner. A middle-aged man in a green urban management uniform is holding a black baton and is waving it smartly, aiming at an old man lying on the ground wearing only a pair of dirty gray shorts. There is a missing leg...

"Isn't it very lively?" Kang Shen walked over and sat across from him with sweat on his forehead, and placed a cup of drink in a milky gray package in front of Yu Wei.

Yu Wei poked it open with a straw, sucked a mouthful hard to hold it, and then nodded his head a few times, as a response to the question of the person opposite.

"You always stay at home, and what you see is only tens of square meters. What a pity, let you come out more." Kang Shen suddenly stopped talking, remembering the previous dispute.

Yu Wei swallowed down the sweet and sour lemon juice, as if he didn't notice that Kang Shen had only said half of what he said, he glanced outside the big glass, and said, "It's really attractive. There are all kinds of people, chaotic Complicated life, intertwined and blended." He seemed to see many parallel lines and intersecting lines, heading towards an unknown direction.

"Do you still want to go to Zunyi Hospital later?" Kang Shen asked.

Yu Wei scratched and drew with his index finger on the clean log-colored small table, they were all messy, meaningless lines and circles, and he said in a muffled voice, "I won't go, it's a disappointment."

Kang Shen glanced at the water marks on the table, he was a little helpless, and said with a smile: "You really shouldn't have said that in the elevator just now."

"I'm just telling you, you were standing next to me at that time, what if I didn't say that? I don't blame them for expressing their opinions on my words without permission!" Yu Wei pressed his fingers on the table a few times. , his complexion remained unchanged, but his small movements were full of anger.

Kang Shen leaned forward, leaned over and said furtively: "You shouldn't say that the elevator they take is haunted! You want to scare people and don't let people complain, I almost got scared!"

The sunlight came from behind Kang Shen, covering the table, as if a light yellow gauze had been spread on it.

Yu Wei also lowered his voice slightly, "I'm telling the truth, maybe some of them think so! There are only seven heads in it, and there are only nine of us, and the car is still very empty. , maybe it can fit four or five people, why is it overweight? Unless there are other things we can't see squeezed inside, is there any other reason?"

"...Then why do you say it as if you saw it?"

"Look at the top, above the elevator, do you feel something floating around?" Yu Wei said it again, imitating the previous tone.

Sinister, even after hearing it once, Kang Shen still involuntarily wiped his arm, splashing goose bumps all over the floor, he swallowed his saliva, and asked with difficulty: "Stop saying such things, I panicked when I heard it Yes, I feel like you really saw me after hearing your words!"

"How is it possible!" Yu Wei leaned back in the chair, holding the drink cup, "I want to confirm with you, maybe you can see it!"

"Don't say it, the more you say it, the more outrageous it is!" Kang Shen wanted to cover the unfettered mouth on the opposite side, but fortunately it was not a crow's mouth. What do you mean he can see it? Isn't this a curse that he has double yin and yang eyes? It's just a ghost, no matter how I think about it, I feel very uncomfortable.

"Hospitals must be the most haunted places in the world, if there are such things. If I saw ghosts behind me in the hospital bathroom mirror, or leaning on my back, I would probably just be surprised. "

"I told you not to say anything, you are really spitting out all kinds of sarcasm! Does anyone imagine the scene of seeing a ghost like this?" Kang Shen twisted his hands so hard that his joints thumped, "Since yesterday, you It's become very chatty!"

"Isn't this what you wanted? You don't think so?" Yu Wei lowered his head, biting down on the straw until it was flattened, and there were crescent-shaped marks all over it. He sipped his drink through the small gap.

"...Of course it's better to talk more." Although what he talked about was inexplicable and far-fetched, it was better than the previous way of getting along with friends who treated each other like a guest. At least he could learn more about this person. This is probably the biggest wish of every lover.

And he felt that after what happened yesterday, the relationship between the two seemed to be getting closer. This was just a feeling, but he was clearly aware of it.

"Do you know the story of Pandora?" Yu Wei shook the half glass of lemon juice left, and the clear ice cubes jingled in it.

Knowing that his little boyfriend wanted to confide in him again, Kang Shen nodded honestly and summed it up simply and clearly:

"In order to punish Prometheus, Zeus united the gods to create a woman with a stone statue and gave it to his brother, hoping to destroy the world maintained by Prometheus."

Yu Wei nodded appreciatively: "You summed it up very accurately. When Pandora and his younger brother got married, do you know what the dowry gift of the gods was?"

"What is it?" Kang Shen only had a half-knowledge about these things.

"A quaint treasure box." Yu Wei said.

"Wait, it's that Pandora's Box?!" Kang Shen immediately realized.

Yu Wei ticked the table with his fingers, and he continued, "This treasure box didn't have a name at first, but it was opened by Pandora later, and the name was just called out by convention."

Kang Shen looked at Yu Wei who was painting with his head down. He probably knew where the next topic was going, but he just listened quietly without interrupting.

"I've said it many times, let people never open the box, don't open it," Yu Wei said lightly, without the emotions that a storyteller should have, and he continued: "But you know, the box ended up It’s open. In order to bring disasters to the world, Zeus is really painstaking. When the gods made Pandora, all the best qualities were pushed on people, such as beauty, youth, virtue, etc., except—”

"Lack of wisdom!"

"In the last exquisite treasure box, diseases, disasters, pain, and crimes are released... the hope left at the bottom is stupidly and mercilessly sealed in an empty box!"

"...It's just a story." Kang Shen said after pondering.

"That's right! It's just a story, but poor Pandora has suddenly become a punching bag for the victims. If you haven't been sick, you can't imagine their despair. They want to find someone to abuse and vent. Most of the patients are like this Some of them beat and kicked relatives who came to take care of them.

Illness is as magical as time, and even more magical. It consumes people's patience, and the best people will become bad-don't rush to refute me, I know what you want to say!You mean it's just a small part, right?I know that the way you distinguish between people is by the so-called outward behavior to distinguish good from bad and good from evil-you don't even know the evil in their hearts-I had a bad cold in the past, and two consecutive I haven’t been well for many weeks, I have been coughing and runny nose. At that time, I wished that the whole world would be flooded and burned, and I was only half a child at that time. At that time, I knew the concept of good and evil Well, I was just showing my true feelings, since then I have known how bad human nature is! "

"They prayed to God and the Bodhisattva, but in the end they were all covered with dry and cold white cloth, pushed into the morgue, transported to the incinerator, and finally turned into dust and dust. Part of it is sand!"

After a long passage, Yu Wei's voice has always maintained such a moderate decibel, without ups and downs or fluctuations.

Kang Shen tried to find even a little emotional ups and downs in him, but there was none.

He found that Yu Wei had been trying to put himself in a position beyond the ordinary. He tried hard to look at life from the perspective of an outsider, but he was always troubled by reality and bound by the disease he didn't want to talk about. ,Thus--

"You are too pessimistic!" Kang Shen said.

Yu Wei put the empty cup back on the table, the red tube on it was already unsightly, he pursed his lips and continued: "Probably, but I can be very happy occasionally—I'm just joking— Hey! Actually, I just want to dirty your ears, do you feel that life is hopeless!!" He suddenly laughed.

This time he finally saw clearly, Yu Wei's unique smile in broad daylight, the right corner of his mouth was slightly hooked, there was an evil feeling, but it was not scary at all, on the contrary, it was a bit more matching with that extraordinary face Gorgeous and extravagant, very tasteful.

"Let's go shopping."

"Eh?!" Kang Shen was stunned by this unexpected sharp turn.

"Why? Don't you go?" Yu Wei stood up, looked down at Kang Shen who was still sitting in his seat, "Then go back, but I'm free today, I don't know if I will next time"

"Go! Go!" Kang Shen directly interrupted Yu Wei's words, and quickly stood up, his fierce movements even knocked the heavy table away by a small arc.

Yu Wei stepped forward, and when he opened the glass door, it was like jumping directly from a cool air-conditioned room to a boiling steam room, what a world of ice and fire!

"It seems that every time after it rains, the weather is always hot and dry." Kang Shen strode up and stood side by side with them.

"Hold it for a long time!" Yu Wei said casually.

"What?" Kang Shen's tinted glasses swept over Yu Wei, wondering why the topic suddenly became so dirty!

Yu Wei thumped the hard back next to him speechlessly, without much force, "It's the sunshine!"

The two walked around the pedestrian street from the corner in front, and the scene of people's voices came into their eyes, and Yu Wei dragged them towards a department store.

"Want to go shopping all the way later?" Kang Shen asked, referring to the densely packed shops lined up on both sides of the street.

"Whatever." Yu Wei walked to a hat counter.

Kang Shen took off a black hat decorated with a silver chain and stroked it. He seemed to inadvertently said, "You, didn't you say you didn't want to go shopping?"

Yu Wei glanced at him, put a blue wide-brimmed fisherman hat on his head, and he moved to the small mirror by the wall to adjust it, "I suddenly want to do this kind of thing with you, can't I?"

Kang Shenle opened his eyebrows, and couldn't help showing a few white teeth, "Of course!" He said excitedly.

Yu Wei changed the darker color of the same style on his right hand for comparison. He saw from the mirror that the salesperson was greeting other people, and there were only the two of them in this corner. He lowered his voice, "Occasionally I don't mind making some, uh, That's what so-called love does."

After all, it's not good to make this stupid big guy too wronged, and he was treated as a small tree hole yesterday.He wanted to treat this person better. Although he didn't know how long this relationship would last, he still wanted to leave a good memory of this relationship.

Of course, Kang Shen couldn't fully accept his thoughts. At this moment, he was immersed in the sweetness of love, and he was very excited for the person he liked to recognize this feeling.

"Buy me a hat." Yu Wei lifted up the blue fisherman's hat that he tried on at the beginning, and he put the dark blue one on Kang Shen's head as he said, nodding in satisfaction after a while, "I'll buy you this It's dark blue, your face is bigger, and it looks better on me than mine."

Kang Shen naturally agreed.
