June is our farewell song

Chapter 43
"In the end, she was grounded by her mother, but I heard that it's not just because of running away from home. It seems that Chen Ying has some minor health problems." Half of the collar slung over his shoulders, and the sleeves hung loosely, "Do you know there is a girl named Roy in their class? That's what she said."

"Luo Yi, so it's her..." In Gu Yuan's mind, a figure appeared in Gu Yuan's mind, with two ponytails and a natural dullness. He has been in the same school as him since kindergarten, kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, and high school for 12 years. During my time, I was divided into classes countless times, but I was never in the same class. The relationship was neither far nor close. It was definitely not that I didn't know each other, but it was not very familiar, it was just a very ordinary and very distant relationship.

"Eh? Do you know him?" Qi Yu looked over in surprise, "I've never heard you mention it."

"You're not my mother, how can I tell you everything?" Gu Yuan gave her a blank look, "Besides, even my mother can't know everyone I've known since I was a child. What's more Roy and I only know each other, at this stage."

In order to emphasize, Gu Yuan deliberately pronounced the words "merely acquainted" very strongly.

"Oh." Qi Yu didn't seem to be very interested in this, and acted very coldly.

The first two classes in the afternoon were composition. As usual, Chen Ge came to attend. The moment Gu Yuan and Qi Yu got the composition paper, they turned their heads and glanced at each other involuntarily.

The title written on the top of the composition paper was "The Moon and Sixpence".

"Chasing dreams is chasing your own bad luck. There are sixpence everywhere, but he looks up and sees the moon."

——The Moon and Sixpence

Freud believes that people pursue happiness, Adler believes that people pursue superiority, and Victor believes that people pursue meaning.

Nietzsche also said: He who knows why to live, can live.

So, what should you be after?
Please talk about your views on this passage. There is no limit to the style of writing, no less than 800 words, and no less than 40 lines if writing poetry.

Looking up, I saw that the man was already sitting behind the podium, holding a book and drinking coffee leisurely.

This guy knows absolutely everything.

Gu Yuan quickly made a judgment, even if the "old friend" that the weird dessert shop owner mentioned did not refer to Chen Ge, there must be some kind of ulterior relationship between these two people.

The students in the classroom quickly entered the state of writing, and it didn't take long for the air to be filled with the slight rustling sound of the pen nib rubbing against the composition paper, but Gu Yuan didn't write for a long time.

After returning home the day before yesterday, he found Maugham's "The Moon and Sixpence" and read it carefully. The novel is not long, and it is only 13 words in full type. But after reading the full text, Gu Yuan didn't even want to understand the most important thing. basic question.

Should I choose the moon or sixpence?

Is what the hero of the novel, Charles Strickland, must have done right?Is the lofty and unattainable ideal really as important as the dreary real life like a quagmire?
Charles in the book abandons his wife. He is selfish, indifferent, and indifferent to everything in the outside world, which makes his painting enter the true state.This realm only exists in novels, and this kind of purity only exists in the world of geniuses or madmen.

But most people, including me, are just ordinary people.

It is the normal state of life to tirelessly search for sixpence on the ground, and then happily raise your head to look at the moon after picking it up.

Hundreds of years ago, the great sage Mr. Wang Shouren once taught us to achieve "unity of knowledge and action".Although Gu Yuan understood the truth that "ideals are far away and reality is skinny", it took a very long time to practice this principle.

After class, Gu Yuan looked at Teacher Chen Ge's back with a coffee cup in one hand and a mobile phone in the other, with a composition paper under his arm, and yawned big. In class, I went to the playground to watch the school football team practice.

The city match is about to start, and the first game will be against City No. [-] Middle School, where more than half of the team members are students from the sports school. It will be a tough battle.

Although it is unlikely, Gu Yuan still hopes that Nanhua High School can at least keep a draw.

It's not that I really want to win, I just don't like losing.

This is Gu Yuan's view on winning and losing all the time. Even if he is injured and cannot play, the sense of collective honor always exists in his heart.

But maybe some people don't think so.

When sitting side by side with Chi Yu on the sidelines of the green field, out of the corner of my eye I glanced at the girl's side face, with youthful vigor, clear outlines, too perfect, and a feeling of "unapproachable" emerged in my heart.But very clean.From such a close distance, one can clearly see how those contour lines outline her profile.And ears to forehead to neck.The line of sight is filled.

Gu Yuan shook his hands resting on his lap, and the chocolate packaging bag made a slight sound.

The boy was tall, and sitting there blocked some light, casting a little shadow on Chi Yu's face, and she felt the coolness.Turning his head, he found that he was looking at him, and his face blushed slightly.

In my mind, it seemed as if it was raining in June, pattering down, full of emotions overflowing everywhere.

At this time, the hoarse roar of the physical education teacher's charter suddenly sounded in his ears: "Pass the ball! What are you looking at?!"

Averting the staggered line of sight, Gu Yuan's eyes fell on the green field, and he couldn't help frowning. In the team of the main players who didn't wear training vests, Lin Yang, a sophomore senior in position [-], took his place. He was carrying the ball without saying a word.

Under the double-teaming of three defenders, even though he kept rushing from left to right, the ball was quickly cut off and was cleared out of the sideline by the defender.

In this team, there are a few people who have the privilege of unlimited dribbling. The coach's regulations are quite tolerant towards Lu Chen and the current captain, Yang Tianchen, a sophomore in high school, because they have far superior skills with their feet, but Others are definitely not on the list of products exempt from inspection. Including Gu Yuan, the actions of other players on the field are firmly restricted by the two steps of "one belt, one pass".

Lin Yang naturally did the same.

"Hey, what's the matter with you, I just threw away the movement essentials I told you just now? How many times have I told you, huh? You need to be smart when playing football! Which one of the students who can be admitted to Nanhua High School has an IQ? Poor? Is there any one whose brain is not good? Lin Yang, you have been playing in the team for more than a year. Why can’t you even do the most basic requirements of two-footed and three-footed balls? You go to play professionally and you have to play the ball with one kick. Is it difficult to dribble the ball less? Do you see how precious offensive opportunities you have wasted?"

Zhang Cheng was thin and tall, nearly 1.9 meters tall. When he spoke, he spit and danced, Lin Yang stood in front of him with his head down and listened to his criticism quietly, and Yang Tianchen stood aside and put his arm around his shoulders. , the rest of the team members stood in a circle, surrounding Zhang Zhang and Lin Yang,
"Strange...he didn't play football like this before..."

"Eh? Was there something wrong with his kick just now?" Chi Yu asked.

"Uh... how should I explain it to you..." It was a bit difficult to explain the truth to a layman who knew nothing about football, Gu Yuan tilted his head and thought for a while, "It's probably like a relay race, the people in front follow the steps step by step. Pass the baton, but at the end of the day, the person who should have passed the baton did not pass the baton to the next person, but chose to rush directly to the finish line. Although it is within the scope of the rules, it often reduces overall efficiency,"

"Oh—" Chi Yu nodded with a half-understanding. "Well, by the way, have you known him before?"

"Huh? Why do you ask that?" Gu Yuan felt a little surprised, "Did I... mention it?"

"Eh? But you just said that he didn't play football like this before, right, you seem to have said so."

"Eh..." Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows, and his eyes fell back on the court, "Well, that's right, Lin Yang and I knew each other before. In junior high school, he and I played football together, although we didn't know each other at that time. They participated in training seriously, but they are still familiar with each other's style of play. Lin Yang has always been a team player, and he is willing to be a green leaf striker, which is a rare type."

"Oh, I see!"

"Well, by the way, Ayu, I have always wanted to ask you a question." Gu Yuan suddenly thought of something, "Did you also go to Dongyang Junior High School before?"

"Ah? I... I am." Chi Yu opened his mouth, blinked his eyes, and then stuck out his tongue gently.

"Well... Let me tell you." Gu Yuan took a deep breath, then stared straight into Chi Yu's eyes, "Where did we seem to meet? Did you know me long ago?"
