I looked into the distance where Le Yao looked, and I was also curious about what the place that symbolized heaven was like for her, so I asked, "How long will it take to arrive?"

"I don't know, I only know the general direction. Do you see the mountain in the north? After passing that mountain and walking over another mountain, you should be there."

I was startled and then sighed: "You should understand this principle, you can't climb over the two mountains without half a day!"

"Do you refuse to go?"

"Of course I don't care. The key is how should we come back tonight?"

"I brought the tent, right in that off-road backpack!"

"No wonder it's so heavy..."

Le Yao didn't say anything to me anymore, and then walked on the gravel path leading to the north mountain before me. After standing for a while, I caught up with her, but I was not mentally prepared to stay in this deep mountain for a night.

......

In the dense jungle, Le Yao and I walked side by side. When I was tired, the two of them sat on a flat stone to rest. She handed me the space cup full of clear water and said, "If you are thirsty, drink some water."

"I'm so thirsty that I'm not thirsty, I just want to know where I am now. There is no telephone signal in this ghost place!"

"Are you scared?"

I subconsciously looked up at the sky. Even if it was a sunny afternoon, the light was still blocked by the dense trees on the road. It was very gloomy. I always felt that a strange thing would suddenly jump out of a corner. Le Yao's heart was full of yearning for crossing two mountains, and she was always fearless, so she looked at me with some contempt.

I took out a cigarette and lit it, took a sip, calmed down and said to her, "I have lived in a bridge hole in the past. What's there to be afraid of in this place?"

"The past is the past, the present is the present. Don't you know that you are no longer the same as you?"

I didn't take Le Yao's words to heart. After replying to her, I said "nonsense", I put on my off-road bag and continued walking on the dark forest path.

......

It was getting dark, and we finally climbed one of the mountains. When we climbed the other, we had to walk on the path where we couldn't see our fingers with the help of the flashlight. Fortunately, the outdoor equipment prepared by Le Yao was professional enough, which reduced some of the burden, but the physical strength was also overdrawn. At this time, Le Yao finally felt scared and held my arm tightly, for fear that the two of us would get separated. I complained to her: "Now you know you are scared? When I came, I asked you to call Robben together. You are not willing. Can you be brave enough if one more person be added!"

"He has his space, I have mine, so why should I call him?"

"What about me, where have you ignored my space?"

"Your space is in my space, so today you have to listen to me, less nagging, less complaining..."

Her sudden strength made me feel helpless, but I still chose to stop nagging as she asked, grabbed her arm and took her through a very steep mountain road.

It was already eight o'clock at night, and my physical strength was completely overdrawn, and Le Yao was not much better. She followed me panting, but the mountain seemed to have no end at all. We were still shrouded in dense forests. Just as I was about to propose a rest, a ray of light finally came from the distance...

I suddenly felt relieved, and even my tone became excited, and said to Le Yao: "The end of this mountain should be ahead, and your paradise is coming soon!"

Le Yao turned off the flashlight, and the light that seemed to be there suddenly became clear. So he urged with excitement in his words: "Hurry up, let's go faster, the front should be where we are going!"

"It should be that I have been away for so long, can't I be sure?"

"I also heard from the villagers in the mountains. I haven't been here before, how can I confirm with you?"

I think so, and the reason why I want a definite answer is because I am so tired. If the front is not the destination, I might collapse in this deep mountain.

After walking about a mile, there was a sudden road ahead, and then we stood on a cliff. I was shocked and said to Le Yao in a very uneasy tone: "Is this what you mean by heaven?...If we take another step forward, we will both go to hell tonight!"

Le Yao didn't say anything, but held the flashlight and looked into the distance. She didn't seem to see anything. She said to me: "You can find a flat place to set up the tent first. It's too late to go back anyway. I'll spend the night here tonight."

I responded, put down my off-road bag, took out the bag containing the tent from it, and then started building it. Because I had experience in surviving outdoors before, I didn't take much effort to set up the tent, then hung the flashlight in the tent to serve as a lighting. Before I could get into the tent with Le Yao, a considerable rain suddenly started to rain in the sky...

I took the lead in the tent, and then called Le Yao to come in to shelter from the rain, but she stood in the rain and said in a complicated way: "Why is it raining again!"

"There is a lot of rain in Guizhou, so it's not normal to rain a little!...Hurry into the tent and don't get caught in the rain!"

Le Yao sighed softly, then sat in the tent, but looked at the large open space at the foot of the mountain in a daze...

I didn't bother to figure out what she was thinking, and then flipped through her off-road bag and found some snacks such as compressed biscuits and beef jerky. After tearing them apart, I handed them to her and said, "Don't be idle, eat something quickly..."

Le Yao looked at it, but didn't answer. She wrapped her arms around her legs, and still looked at the unseen distance in a daze. This abnormal behavior made me even more confused. Then she put down the snacks in her hand and looked at her...

Suddenly, a clear whistle sound came from a distance, and then the bright light pierced the thickness of the night in a sharp posture. A train roared from a distance to our direction... At this time, I finally understood the meaning of Le Yao's words "Why is it raining again"... It turned out that this was another night with me accompanying her to see the train!... But an unexpected rain also followed like a shadow, as if indicating a helpless fate!

The rain just fell on the tent and made a "tick" sound, but it did not affect the sound left on the railroad tracks after the train roared past. So the sound of wind, rain, and railroad tracks seemed to form a touching vocal music in our ears.

After a while, the train finally broke through the night and disappeared from our sight. However, the sound produced after friction with the railway tracks still echoed in the valley, so our emotions also drifted with the sound, and it took a long time to settle down under the rain.

"Zhaoyang, do you know how many cars there are in the train that just passed?"

"It's too fast to see clearly!"

“There are 18 cars in total.”

I looked at her incrediblely and asked, "How did you judge it?"

"If you also regard this as an indispensable pastime in life, it can be judged."

"I don't like living too seriously. Even if it's used as a pastime, I don't care about how many halls there are in the car."

"hehe......"

I didn't care too much about Leyao's sarcastic laughter, but accompanied by the sound of rain, I lit a cigarette for myself and waited for the next train to appear. At this time, I was in the mountains and could only regard this as my only pastime. I had already thought about it in my mind and saw if I could count the number of cars when the next train appeared.

After a long silence, Le Yao finally said to me softly: "Zhaoyang, I don't love you anymore... You have really changed too much!"

I pinched the cigarette and looked at her, but listened to the sound of rain falling outside the tent...

Le Yao's face looked a little hazy in the faint light, but she could see her smile after letting go: "I don't love you anymore, I really don't love you anymore... Now you are full of depression and constraints, full of compromise after being tortured by life... Now you will no longer wear a rivet leather jacket, play the guitar, and roar with anger... I am getting more and more tired of your hesitation, helplessness, depression, and fatigue... The reason why I still love you is just out of inertia, but just like that train, no matter how fierce the speed is, there will be the moment of stopping... So, now I step on the brakes, looking for the station where I can stop, and then recognize the illusion and say goodbye to this section of railway tracks that will not end at all!"

The rain sounded so loud that I seemed to have heard what she was saying, but I didn't seem to have heard it clearly, so I looked at her in a daze and asked, "What did you say? Say it again!"

Le Yao attached to my ear and shouted, "Zhaoyang, I don't love you anymore... After this night, you are good or bad, happy or sad, poor or rich, have nothing to do with me, Le Yao, and I will never care about you anymore... Have you heard it clearly? Do you understand it again?"

I looked at her and nodded dullly for a long time.

"So... you don't have to worry about me anymore. After this night, we will use this small mountain village as the end and go our separate ways from now on!"

The sound of rain seemed to suddenly disappear in my ears, but her words turned into echoes constantly lingering, so I really saw her disgust for me and her determination to say goodbye... In fact, we had already said goodbye a few days ago, but I found her again... This made me believe that it was a kind of arrangement of fate. I came here to come to this hill where I could see trains and rails, say these words, and then bid farewell to the past with a determined attitude... At this point, she floated across the sea to find the isolated island. I looked for a pair of wings that could spread my wings to pursue that crystal clear city. In the same way, I completely wiped the other party into my memory!
