There are endless green lawns, and the sky is an endless blue sky, dotted with several snow-white clouds.
This kind of scene makes people feel comfortable just looking at it. The white clouds are floating very low, as if they are almost touching the ground.
Xie Chen lay on the lawn in a daze, watching this particularly familiar scene, which reminded him of his dream of meeting Xiao Hong.
I know that this is just a dream.
But he didn't make any unnecessary movements, not even opening his eyes.
Just to stay in this comfortable dreamland for a longer time.
A cool breeze blew by, slowly caressing the grass on the prairie, and then caressing his whole body.
Xie Chen felt it was like the caress of a mother's hand, and felt a burst of satisfaction.
In a daze, Xiaohong's voice seemed to appear in his ears again, but in fact there was no sound. Only with his eyes closed, he could feel the movement of someone walking around him.
I still didn't rush to open my eyes to check. This was just a dream of my own. Anything could appear on this endless grassland. I opened my eyes and saw it again. Even if there was movement now, I didn't want it to happen so quickly. Take yourself out of the dream.
Xiechen closed his eyes and opened and closed his hands. Next to him were those bright flowers. In fact, there were some flowers not far away with many wild fruits.
Far away from me, there were tents one after another. It could be seen that someone was using these tents for camping.
It wasn't until he heard a crackling sound that he had been lying on the ground with his eyes closed, and then he had no choice but to open his eyes.
Xie Chen sat up from the grass and looked carefully.
I really wanted to take a closer look, but everyone who walked between the tents felt a little familiar yet unfamiliar to me.
I don’t know whether it’s because of the distance or the problem of light exposure on the grassland.
Maybe it's both. I had my eyes closed for so long, and when I just opened them, I couldn't see clearly.
I couldn't see the faces of these people clearly. Although I felt they were familiar, I didn't know who they were. I could only see that these people were all talking freely and communicating enthusiastically with each other.
The expressions on their faces represent the most sincere emotions between them. They seem to be very real. It doesn't feel like they are in a dream.
In the harmonious atmosphere in which they talked with each other, I seemed to be able to see joy, appreciation, trust, kindness, peace, and relief.
Xie Chen sat there, feeling a little uncomfortable all over his body, as if there were ants crawling on him, densely packed.
He struggled to stand up, and his field of vision became wider. Looking at the group of people communicating and the harmonious atmosphere in front of him, he also wanted to join them.
With somewhat numb feet, I walked towards the grassland little by little, at a slow speed, but I could feel the real touch with every step.
It didn't feel like I was dreaming, it felt more like I was really walking on this grassland.
But no matter how long he walked, no matter whether he quickened his pace or turned into a run, he could not really get close to the camp in front of him.
I tried my best to use all my strength, but in exchange I only got a little closer.
But at least the distance has been shortened a little bit, but my heart is still stubborn, and I want to exchange for this little bit again and again.
If we could close this distance every time, then it would be possible to get closer to that camp.
Although the sweat on his forehead had begun to slide down his cheeks, he was not close to the camp yet.
But after getting this little distance away, don't let yourself underestimate the faces of the people in the camp.
He is indeed a very familiar person.
They were mom and dad, Xiao Hong and Xiao Wen, and there were even two other people, Dagang and Adu, laughing next to the camp.
In addition to these people, there are also a large group of people in the class who are classmates with him, and there are even more people at the back of the camp that he does not know.
I seem to have seen some of their faces before, but I don’t remember them clearly, but now they also appear in this camp.
At the same time that he saw them, they also saw him, and all their gazes were directed this way.
Xie Chen felt these gazes, but this time he did not feel that they were looking at him with disgust and disgust. It was as if under their gaze, he felt a little confident for the first time.
These people all had smiles on their faces. They didn't immediately grin at themselves as soon as they saw themselves, and they had no intention of using harsh and violent methods to harm themselves.
They all smiled and didn't open their mouths. They didn't seem to torture themselves with the twisted language. In their eyes, they seemed to have become common friends and family members.
As he sweated while running, they began to wave in his direction.
"Come on, I've been waiting for you for a long time. There are a lot of fun things here. Come and take a look at it all. We all feel that we are missing you."
Xie Chen heard this sentence clearly, and his whole body felt as if he was electrocuted. He stood still on the spot with his feet, as if he couldn't believe his ears.
His lips were trembling, and there seemed to be something swirling in his eyes, but when the wind around him blew gently, his eyes were only a little sour, and no tears fell out.
His trembling arms slowly stretched out, and he seemed to hear the people in the distant camp speaking to him again.
But he seemed to think of something and didn't respond immediately.
"What are they?"
Xie Chen stood there and muttered to himself blankly. This question seemed to be asking himself in return.
"what is it then?"
Xie Chen stood there at a loss, looking at a person in the distance who seemed to be greeting him, and became even more panicked.
Among these people, Xie Chen did not see the figures he wanted to see. Instead, these people became familiar yet unfamiliar dangers in his eyes.
Whether physically or mentally, I am particularly uncomfortable with the people in front of me yelling at me.
"Where's my sister?!"
"younger sister!"
Seeing her mother standing at the front of the crowd, Xie Chen asked anxiously.
"Where is my sister? Mom, where is my sister?"
While he was asking, he felt someone pointing his finger at him. He immediately turned his head in surprise and found that his sister was beside him.
I don't know when I held my sister's hand.
My sister gave herself a very strange feeling. It should be said that she looked strange.
The backs of her hands and thighs were covered with wounds. Although the wounds had scabbed over, it was obvious that the wounds were deep, and the suspender skirt she was wearing was torn and extremely dirty.
His hair was somewhat split, and even his face had many bruises, and the scars were not limited to the back of his hands and thighs, but the scars in these two places were particularly obvious, and there were many small injuries in other places.
Xie Chen's lips trembled a little. The sister in front of him seemed to have suffered great torture, and he seemed to feel a similar pain in his own body.
He took a step forward in disbelief, but his sister stepped back on her own, as if she didn't want him to see her in such a mess.
As soon as the younger sister took this step, a huge crack appeared on her face. This crack was so deep that she could clearly see the surging flesh and blood inside even from the height of the two people.
"who is it!!!"
Xie Chen clenched his hands into fists, his eyes filled with rage. He wanted to hug his bruised sister with both hands, but her sister took another step back.
Xiechen's hands were empty, hanging feebly on the ground. An inexplicable feeling of weakness pressed deeply on himself.
Xie Chen gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice.
"Who on earth...who took you?!?!"
My sister saw how uncomfortable she was, and immediately came in and knelt down to look at herself.
"It's them, brother..."
The younger sister stretched out her hand, which was already covered with scars, and pointed her finger at the crowd in the distance.
Xie Chen raised his fierce eyes and looked at the crowd at the camp in the distance.
My sister's voice was trembling as she continued pointing at the crowd.
"It's them, it's them who tortured me like this day after day. All these injuries on my body were caused by them..."
After hearing this, he couldn't help but look angrily at the crowd in the distance, and the fierceness on his face became more intense.
"sorry……"
Before he could release the hatred in his heart, he suddenly heard these three words.
But those three words were so light, but they seemed to be trying to cover up everything.
"We will try our best to make up for the mistakes that have hurt you, if we can."
"We will give you love, yes. It will be unreal to you, and it will be a bit distorted to you. Even so, you don't think so, but please forgive us."
"Do you accept?"
Wherever he looked, the crowd no longer maintained happy expressions, and even stopped all movements in their hands, and everyone faced him.
In his own eyes, some crystal water droplets began to appear on their faces, falling to the ground like crystals.
"what is that?"
"Are they...tears?"
My brain seems to have some cognitive impairment at this moment. When I see these people, what slips out of my eyes feels strange to me from the bottom of my heart.
I don't know since when, I have forgotten what tears are, even crying.
It seems that I only cried loudly when I was born, and then slowly grew up. As I grew older, I could only learn to endure and grit my teeth and persevere through pain again and again.
In the impression of this body, crying will only make me feel more pain.
In the diary, in the diary I wrote, it seems that there has never been any sadness.
Is it right?
Xie Chen's body was shaking a little, as if he was born to endure pain and died to protect hope.
Even if these feelings are all illusory, this should be my ending...
"no no!"
"Why...why! I don't accept it!"
Xiechen's feet became weak and he knelt down. He instinctively supported the ground with one hand and covered his swollen brain with the other hand. A calm voice kept ringing in his mind, disturbing little by little. own judgment.
"Why? You should know!..."
Xie Chen's eyes widened and he roared at the top of his lungs: "I don't accept it!!!!"
"I will never, ever accept this belated redemption!!!!"
Xie Chen vented his inner anger and expressed the hatred that had been accumulated in his heart for a long time.
A strange voice sounded from the depths of Xie Chen's consciousness. This voice was particularly familiar.
"Hahahahahaha, I won! Redemption..."
