Soon after Luo Shaoheng hung up the phone, the other party sent the address, and at the same time received an email reminder, showing that the other party had sent relevant information. He looked at the address on the phone and was stunned for a moment: "Dejiang Town, L City?"

"What's wrong?" Shen Mucheng took it over and looked at it, "Is there any problem?"

"I've been to this place before, but why is it here? Xu Dezhou's hometown is City Y. I went there before, and the people in the village said he hasn't been back for a long time. How could he be here..." Luo Shaoheng stopped suddenly, suddenly realized, "This is his wife's hometown!"

He remembered that he had seen this place in Xu Dezhou's information before, but Xu Dezhou's wife had passed away for many years, so he didn't think about it. He didn't expect Xu Dezhou to be there, but after thinking about it, he felt reasonable.

"When will we go there?" Shen Mucheng asked in a deep voice, it would be easy if he knew the place.

"Tomorrow, Dejiang County is a bit far away from us, and there is no direct flight, so we can only go to S City first and then transfer to the train." Luo Shaoheng thought for a while, "Let's go back first, just go back and look at his information over the years. "

"Okay." Shen Mucheng nodded, looked at the bedroom for the last time, and left with him.

Finding out the personnel information related to that year proved to be one step closer to the truth of the accident. Both of them were a little excited, and the result of the excitement was that Luo Shaoheng couldn't sleep that night.

He lay on Shen Mucheng's chest, and said to him excitedly: "What should I do if I'm a little excited? There was no news when I checked before, and I thought that Fang Ping disappeared."

How could he be a little excited like this, Shen Mucheng said with a smile: "No, unless Dezhou is dead, we will find out sooner or later."

"That's right, just like you." Luo Shaoheng smiled, "Shen Mucheng, I used to never believe in such things as predestined, but since meeting you again, I have begun to believe that everything is determined by God. It has its own arrangements."

"En." Shen Mucheng patted his head and responded. If he used to, he would have scoffed at words like fate, but now it's different, Luo Shaoheng is destined to him.

"By the way, this is for you." Luo Shaoheng took off the prayer bead on his wrist and put it on his hand, "I hope it will bring you good luck this time and make you remember quickly."

Made of fine sandalwood, the color of the beads has not become dull even after the baptism of time.

Probably because Luo Shaoheng wears it on his body for many years, the Buddhist beads are warm to the touch and feel moist.

Ever since the reunion with Luo Shaoheng, Shen Mucheng saw that this string of Buddhist beads had been worn on his hands all the time. Looking at the Buddhist beads that had been changed to his hands at this moment, he felt his heart beating slowly in a "bang bang—" .

Turning a certain bead on it over, I saw a word "city" on it as I thought.

"Shen Mucheng, I'm going to sketch with my classmates next week, and I won't be back until a few days ago, so don't miss me too much."

In my memory, there seems to be a young boy lying on his chest like Luo Shaoheng now, telling him with a smile on his face that he is going out to sketch.

The boy went there for a week, saying he was going to sketch with his classmates, but on the day he came back, he took him by the hand and carefully put a string of dark brown precious beads into his hand, and asked with a smile: "Shen Mucheng, send you off." A gift, do you like it? How can you thank me?"

-like or not

—Of course I do.

Shen Mucheng's eyes moved from the Buddhist beads to Luo Shaoheng's body. He lowered his head slightly, and was holding his own hand, inserting his fingers into his own and interlocking them.

The fuzzy image in the memory suddenly became clear at this moment, the boy's face overlapped with the person in front of him, the youthful and childish eyebrows and eyes of the boy had become mature, and his whole temperament seemed as gentle as jade.

His Shaoheng has grown from a young boy to an outstanding man, but when he looked at him, the warm and deep love in his eyes remained unchanged.

The warmth and love filled in his eyes, just a glance, can warm his heart.

Shen Mucheng's heart palpitated, he clasped his hand in his.

Seeing him staring at him without saying a word, Luo Shaoheng asked aloud, "What's wrong?"

Shen Mucheng looked at him fixedly, touched his face with the other hand, and said softly: "I remember."

"What do you mean by remembering... Wait, what did you say?!" Luo Shaoheng suddenly sat up from him, and said excitedly, "You just said you remembered? Did I hear you right?!"

"That's right." Shen Mucheng smiled, "I remember you went to the Ancient Rock Temple and brought me back a string of prayer beads that are the same as this one. It..." His voice suddenly stopped, and he looked at Buddha beads in hand.

He remembered that he also had a string of prayer beads, so where did it go? Was it lost when something happened

"What's wrong with you?" Luo Shaoheng found that he was a little lost again, and shook his hand.

"The Buddhist beads you gave me... seem to be lost." Shen Mucheng said guiltily.

"Did it fall off in an accident? Then you can just wear mine." Luo Shaoheng said indifferently.

"but… "

"Don't mention this, tell me what else you remember?" Luo Shaoheng urged him.

Shen Mucheng thought about it seriously, then shook his head: "Not for the time being."

"Oh..." Luo Shaoheng was a little disappointed, but soon became happy again, "It's a good thing to have an impression, and it really was right to come back with you, maybe you'll be able to remember it in a while."

Seeing him so happy, Shen Mucheng was also in a very good mood, maybe one day he would really be able to remember everything. He took off the Buddhist beads in his hand, and pulled Luo Shaoheng's hand to put it on for him. Luo Shaoheng shrank his hand and was held tightly by him.

Shen Mucheng put the beads on him: "You just wear it, be obedient."

Seeing the bead string returning to his hand, Luo Shaoheng didn't insist any longer: "Then I'll get you another one next time, by the way, when I come back from Dejiang County, I'll take you to the top of Yunshan Mountain to play, maybe you will have some fun." Not sure about the impression."

"Okay." Shen Mucheng had no opinion on where to go, he looked at the time and it was already late, and the two of them would have to get up early tomorrow, so he said, "It's time to go to bed."

"But I'm not sleepy yet." Luo Shaoheng leaned back on his chest again, "As soon as I think that tomorrow I'll know something related to that year, I'll... tell you something serious! Be serious!" He said and stretched out his hand to the back Grab Shen Mucheng's hand that got into his pajama pants.

Shen Mucheng, who was caught upright, was not at all embarrassed, he held him with his backhand and said, "Sleep, or do something else, you choose one."

Luo Shaoheng looked at him in disbelief: "I'm talking to you so seriously, why are you so dishonest?!"

Shen Mucheng smiled: "Then sleep well..."

Before he finished speaking, Luo Shaoheng came up to him and kissed his lips. As his lips and tongue blended together, he heard Luo Shaoheng say vaguely: "Then do something else."

Shen Mucheng: "..."

Okay, this is very Luo Shaoheng.

After breakfast the next day, the two boarded the plane to S City. An hour and a half later, the plane landed at the airport on the outskirts of S City.

Dejiang County is geographically remote, and there are only two long-distance trains from S City in the morning and evening. Luo Shaoheng and the others booked tickets for the evening, and it was noon when they arrived in City S.

After looking for a place to eat, the two went to the train station to pick up the tickets, and then took a room in a nearby small hotel to rest. At night, they went to the train station to check the tickets and enter the station half an hour in advance.

Probably because the school is about to start, the waiting hall is full of people, the seats are already occupied, and there are people standing everywhere waiting for the ticket check.

Luo Shaoheng and the others found a slightly less crowded corner and stood there. Shen Mucheng pushed him in and stood in front of him, separating him from other waiting passengers.

As the previous train entered the station, the number of people in the waiting hall decreased by one-third. Their train was delayed for more than half an hour. As soon as the delayed broadcast came out, the passengers who had been waiting in the waiting hall in the morning suddenly complained. .

After finally waiting for the train to arrive, the two followed the flow of people through the ticket check and got on the train.

Shen Mucheng, who had lost his past memories, had no experience in taking trains, so he followed Luo Shaoheng to find their bed.

Looking at the narrow and crowded sleeping berth, and looking at his own height, he suddenly felt that tonight was a bit difficult.

Luo Shaoheng checked the ticket for the lower berth, and when he turned around, he saw Shen Mucheng looking at the berth in front of him with a frown.

Looking at his appearance, Luo Shaoheng suddenly thought that the first time he went out to play with Shen Mucheng was the sleeper train. Because Shen Mucheng was too tall, Shen Mucheng who was squeezed into the small sleeper fell asleep the next morning. pillow.

Thinking that Shen Mucheng is now two centimeters taller than before, he couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Shen Mucheng stuffed their luggage under the bed, leaving only one bag on the bed.

"I remembered that we used to take the night train, and you twisted your neck after sleeping all night." Luo Shaoheng said with a smile.

Shen Mucheng paused when he sat down, feeling that tonight would be even more difficult.

Facts proved that Shen Mucheng was right. He was 1.88 meters tall and lying on the narrow sleeper felt that something was wrong with him, and he felt uncomfortable wherever he put his hands and feet.

The train to Dejiang County is relatively old. The sleeper bed is not only narrow but also short. He can’t even put his feet up when he lies up straight. It feels uncomfortable outside, so he can only lie sideways and bend his feet slightly. stand up.

Turning over just happened to see Luo Shaoheng lying on the opposite side of him, facing him, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, seeing him looking over, he asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"

uncomfortable? It's just hard.

Shen Mucheng pointed to his feet, and explained everything with facts: "Just look at it and you'll understand."

"Just bear it all night, and I'll change you to a big bed tomorrow." Luo Shaoheng said with a smile.

"En." Shen Mucheng hummed noncommittally, and sat up from the bed. They were on the upper bunk, and the top of his head was the roof of the car. He had to bend down as much as possible so as not to be hit on the head.

Seeing him sitting up, Luo Shaoheng said, "Want to go to the bathroom? There isn't one in this carriage. I'll take you there."

"No." Shen Mucheng leaned over to him as he said, reached out and picked up the coat he had put on the bedside, shook it off and covered him with the quilt, and adjusted the quilt for him along the way, "It's cold at night, don't catch a cold .”

Luo Shaoheng looked at him steadily, Shen Mucheng withdrew his hands and was about to lie back on his bed after tidying up, but Luo Shaoheng suddenly stretched out a hand from under the quilt to hold him.

At this time, the train just entered the tunnel, and the carriage was suddenly plunged into darkness. In the darkness, Shen Mucheng felt a piece of soft lips sticking to his face, and then moved to his lips, rubbing against himself gently.

"Good night." Luo Shaoheng's gentle and laughing voice came from next to his ear.

The train passed through the tunnel, and the light in the compartment was restored. Luo Shaoheng had already lay back on his bed, looking at him with a smile in his eyes.

Shen Mucheng reached out and touched his lips, a gentle smile appeared on his lips, and reached out to stroke his hair: "Good night."

"Good night." Luo Shaoheng said with a smile,

After the lights in the carriage were turned off, the originally noisy sound gradually fell into silence, leaving only the "clang clang" sound outside the train.
