Run to the sea

There is an old man on the beach who is concentrating on painting. The beach, parasols, waves and sunshine are lifelike.

The man was walking towards the sea. Ten meters, twenty meters away, the beach? It was getting farther and farther away from him. He sometimes dives underwater and floats on the sea surface, letting his body wander along with the waves.

This is the fourth time Su Yi has been to Beidaihe. My memory is like this sea, the color is getting thicker and a little gray. He was wearing a green half-sleeve top and black swimming trunks, and was walking hard towards the sun - away from the crowd. The sea level had already strangled his neck, and every wave that came over made him drool continuously. The light reflected by the sun on the sea surface was particularly dazzling.

"What does that person want to do? Jump into the sea and commit suicide? Get your phone quickly, record it, and post it on WeChat Moments. There will definitely be a lot of likes!"?

"It could also be mental. No, how can a man wear a shirt when swimming in the sea? He is different from us, which means he is not a normal person."?

The waves crashed on the beach, covering every place. The traces were covered up mercilessly, and the words of those strangers escaped in the air, fearlessly invading the hearts that seemed to be disapproving, but were actually sensitive and fragile.

Su Yi did not want to commit suicide. He faced the sea and turned his back to everything behind him, making his heart sink and sink again. A huge wave suddenly came over and knocked Su Yi into the water unprepared. He struggled hard and kicked his feet under the water, but he couldn't find any point of strength. The sky disappeared, the sun disappeared, and there was only turbidity in front of him. sea ??water with floating seaweed.

Suddenly, a strong hand lifted him up from the water, allowing him to escape death. He gasped for air, rubbed his red eyes vigorously, and looked at the blurry world in front of him again. She is still the same, even if the drowning just now caused the already somewhat fat boy to lose his life, she remains unmoved, and even the sea level in front of her will not become more rippled because of his departure.

The sun was still scorching the sea fiercely, and the sea temperature had risen. But at this time, Su Yi was lying on the beach, shivering. He fell on the beach, still a little afraid of drowning just now. .

?"You can't swim and still run so far. The ocean is not land and it's not that safe."

Su Yi straightened up and looked for the sound. A girl next to him was watching. He smiled, and her long hair was tied up into a bun, as if it was tied with an apple.

Seeing that Su Yi didn't answer, the girl asked again: "It was my dad who saved you just now. Even if you don't want to talk to me, you should at least say thank you. He also said that he thought you must be having trouble thinking about it. , said that he would take you to dinner and have a good chat later - ugh, this man really doesn’t let me worry..." Su Yi raised his head and stared at the sky, and sighed: "I'm not Ignore you, I'm just in shock."

"Let's go." The girl walked next to him, covering the hot sun, and said: "My name is Fang Linya, and our family always comes. We are playing here."

Seeing his hesitation, Fang Linya reached out and pulled him up, "Okay, let's go, our family is very talkative."

Su Yi was dragged forward by Fang Linya for a few steps, then thought of something, gently shook off her hand, and whispered: "Wait a minute."

Fang Linya was confused. , watching Su Yi take a few steps back, looked around, squatted down, and dug out a disposable lunch box and empty bottles on the beach with both hands.

"What is this?" Fang Linya asked.

"Oh, it's nothing. I just went for a swim in the sea..." Su Yi paused for a moment. He didn't know how to swim, and then changed his words: "The garbage picked up while playing in the water, this sea is far less than what it used to be in a year." She is now clean and peaceful. In my eyes, she has not changed, but in fact she has changed helplessly.”

Fang Linya covered her mouth and smiled, thinking that no one would care about it when she came out to play. There are so many. If you consider other factors too much, wouldn’t you be wronging yourself?

In a hotel not far from the beach, Fang Linya's father was standing at the door, squinting and smiling at her.

The restaurant was so crowded that even one table might be occupied by three families.

Fang Linya's father greeted Su Yi politely, took him to find a table to sit down, ordered a rice bowl, and said earnestly: "My child, come to the beach to play alone... you..."

"Yes." Su Yi straightened his hair that was stuck together and nodded.

"Is there anything you can't think of? Tell your uncle about it."

Su Yi was stunned. It seemed that this man really thought he had committed suicide by jumping into the sea.

"Dad, let him eat something first." Fang Linya said as if to rescue him.

The hot pepper fried pork bun made Su Yi take a breath. He looked around. He was extremely uncomfortable with the lively atmosphere. His hands trembled slightly when he picked up the chopsticks and picked out the pieces piece by piece. He picked out the green peppers and put them on the plate on the side. He lowered his head so low that it almost reached the table. He tried hard to control his emotions and put the rice into his mouth.

Fang Linya sat next to him, glanced at him, and touched him with her elbow: "What's wrong? It's not to your liking?"

Su Yi whispered in her ear. Said: "I don't like it when there are so many people, and besides, I don't eat spicy food."

Fang Linya took Su Yi's hand again, "Dad, I'll take him out to eat." After saying that, Fang Linya Pulling Su Yi out of the hotel.

The two of them met a barbecue stall at the beach, ordered some food, and sat under an umbrella on the beach while listening to the noise of the sea breeze and waves while eating.

Su Yi raised a smile on his lips and sighed: "You have a very lively personality. I will never learn to communicate with people too familiarly, unless there is a specific topic or a specific relationship."

"It's nothing. Some people grow up inseparable from this world, while some people are inseparable from her. Of course, there are also those who drift away from each other. They are loyal to their hearts and live up to others." Fang Linya He raised his hand to straighten his bangs that were blown by the wind, lowered his head and drew something casually on the beach. After finishing the drawing, he raised his head and asked, "You seem to like eating crab steaks?"

Su Yi was about to bite. He lifted the half-eaten crab steak into the air and said with a wry smile: "I like anything that is meaningful to me. At a certain stage of my life, I had to go to the road by myself every early morning. There was a barbecue stall on the roadside for 2 yuan. A crab steak, paired with a 2.5 yuan can of Sprite, I will find a small alley to sneak in, eat, drink, walk and sing - maybe it is more appropriate to call it ghost howl, because..."

< p> "Wait for me." She interrupted him, got up and left.

Su Yi looked at the date "20190608" carved on the beach and smiled unconsciously. Linya came back a few minutes later, carrying two cans of Sprite and a shirt.

"Suddenly I remembered that Dad has Sprite in the car, and you don’t need to change your clothes? You just wore them after soaking in the sea for so long..."

Su Yi took Fang Linya The Sprite and shirt were handed over, hesitantly.

"Change, change, what are you afraid of? You are a boy, what do you have? Continue talking about what you just said."

Su Yi folded the clothes and put them in his arms. "Don't you think I'm unusual for wearing a top when going to the sea?"

"A little bit, but I don't think it's okay. From another angle, it's pretty cool." Fang Linya said nothing. He said hesitantly, "It's... because of what?"

"I have an ugly scar on my chest. It's not about whether others think I'm different, it's because I'm different. I'm willing to put myself on the Internet All the scars are torn apart, but in reality, I hope to hide myself in a box, isolated from the world, or independent from the world."

"No wonder someone will become. You are willing to hide in the box, but before that, you have to work hard to pursue the beauty in your heart." Fang Linya changed the topic and shook the Sprite in her hand, "Continue to talk about your Sprite and crab steaks."

< p> Su Yi was silent for a long time and laughed out loud: "I forgot where I said it. Oh, yes, ghost howl. I have experienced more loneliness and pain than most people my age. Sometimes I will persuade I said that "loneliness makes people strong", but I found that I really couldn't get used to it. During that wasted time, I went out to walk and sing every night to numb myself..."

Two people chatting. After chatting for a long time, I left my contact information and made an appointment to go to Biluota Sea Bar Park together in the evening.

The sunset in the west began to fade away, leaning against the setting sun. The setting sun struggled to leave the last glimmer of light, casting a dim yellow at the end of the sea, turbulent and restless along with the undulating waves.

The rain suddenly came down, and it turned to pouring, driving Su Yi and Fang Linya into the Biluo Tower.

Su Yi smiled bitterly and said: "Heavy rain likes me so much. It rains every time I come to Beidaihe. What's even weirder is that I got up at four o'clock this morning to watch the sunrise. It didn't rain originally, but it rained immediately at five o'clock. It rained, and it stopped after seven o'clock, and the sun had already staggered up. This year, during the Chinese New Year, I traveled to the south. When I went to Nanjing, there was sleet, then to Huangshan, it rained again, and then to Jingdezhen, it still rained every day. The weather was sunny the first time, but it rained when I went."

Fang Linya stretched out her hand, letting the rain dance in her palm, and said, "You won't go home during the New Year? ”

“Who wouldn’t want to go back if they have a home? Behind the seemingly free travel is the pain of having nowhere to talk.”

The rain stopped when the two climbed to the top of Biluo Tower. , the noise on the beach came from far and near, Fang Linya held Su Yi's hand again, "Let's go, the bonfire party is about to begin."

The deafening music stimulated everyone's cells , the flames of the large fire in the center of the venue kept jumping along with the music. People gathered in a circle, shouting, venting, and sometimes jumping under the leadership of the DJ.

Su Yi once again seemed out of place. He stood blankly on the periphery of the crowd, at a loss.

Fang Linya shouted in his ear: "You can't do this, come with me!"

She dragged him in and stood behind him, He held his hands up and asked him to keep waving his hands, and shouted in his ear: "Take out the courage you had when you were driving on the road and howling like a ghost!"

DJ continued to lead. The atmosphere allowed everyone to roar along with the music. Seeing Fang Linya's red face reflected in the firelight, Su Yi couldn't hold back any longer. She kept shouting, waving her arms vigorously, jumping and shouting "Happy Birthday" ".

Fang Linya stopped and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that it was your birthday today? I didn't even prepare anything."

She grabbed him again and rushed out of the crowd, heading towards He ran away from the crowd, behind him were the firelight, the noise, and everything that seemed prosperous but would eventually fade away.

Suddenly, she disappeared, and he found himself roughly in the middle, far away from the beach, umbrellas, waves and sunshine.

"Old man, how did you sell this painting?"

"Wait a minute, I will finish it after I remove the man in the sea."
