Chapter 74: I'll Take You to Their Home
Chinese Zhang Yang didn't say much, just quietly accompanied Gu Lao, and the two of them walked forward slowly like this.
When they walked to the playground, and there were fewer people coming and going, Gu Lao stopped, turned around, squinted, and asked with a serious face: "You kid, don't you have anything to ask me?"
Hearing this, Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment, and then said nonchalantly, "Thank you for being able to attend the parent-teacher conference for my parents, but I don't have anything to ask, after all, you don't know who my parents are, let alone their whereabouts." β
In Zhang Yang's opinion, Gu Lao's ability to come to the parent-teacher meeting was completely revealed by Gu Qingqing, he had no intersection with his parents, even if he was one of the four elders of the high-ranking Blood Sacrifice Pavilion, he didn't know where his parents were.
Hearing Zhang Yang's answer, Gu Lao's gaze at Zhang Yang was extremely complicated, and he stared at it for several seconds before he couldn't help but sigh, "Now that you have grown up, there are some things that you should know." β
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Yang quickly put away the indifferent expression on his face before, and replaced it with unprecedented solemnity, his eyes opened involuntarily, and he said in disbelief, "Could it be ...... Do you know the whereabouts of my parents?"
Gu Lao didn't respond to Zhang Yang immediately, he just glanced at him expressionlessly, but after a simple look, he turned his head to the side and didn't look at Zhang Yang anymore, even a glance.
Seeing Gu Lao's ignorance of himself, Zhang Yang became more anxious, his tone was not very good, and he couldn't help urging: "Old man, can you stop selling Guanzi?
"I don't know if your parents are happy for you or disappointed!" Speaking of this, Gu Lao slowly raised his head and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"En?" Hearing this, Zhang Yang's body stiffened and stood motionless like a sculpture, although Gu Lao's voice was not loud, but to Zhang Yang, it was like thunder.
Listening to the tone of his voice, he seems to know the whereabouts of his parents!
"Do you know my parents? Do you know their whereabouts?" Zhang Yang could no longer control the emotions he had suppressed in his heart for more than ten years, and grabbed Gu Lao's hand tightly and shook it vigorously.
Gu Lao still had a calm face, his facial expression was very calm, there were no waves, and he couldn't see the slightest emotion, "Of course I know! If it weren't for your parents, I wouldn't have brought you to the army back then." β
Gu Lao didn't hide anything, got straight to the point, and said straight to the point.
Hearing this, Zhang Yang was extremely emotional, and his eager face was full of pleading, "Old Gu, can you tell me, what are my parents doing? Where have they been for more than ten years!"
Zhang Yang said this, his voice was a little hoarse, he wanted to use a hoarse voice to cover up the thoughts of his parents in his heart, and also wanted to cover up the weak side of his heart, strong he, deep down, how much he wanted to see his parents, even if he only saw one time!
A complicated gaze burst out from Gu Lao's deep eyes, and after glancing at Zhang Yang, his tone was slightly heavy, "Are you sure you want to know?"
"Of course!" Zhang Yang replied with unwavering and sonorous force.
"Okay......" Gu Lao took a deep breath and walked forward slowly, "In that case, I'll take you to your parents' house!"
Hearing this, deep in Zhang Yang's heart, he was both nervous and excited, he didn't expect that Gu Lao not only knew his parents, but also knew their home!
In this way, for so many years, my parents should have been in Yangcheng, and they actually have families, why don't they come to find themselves?
Thinking of this, Zhang Yang felt a sense of loss in his heart, and followed behind Gu Lao without saying a word.
Along the way, Zhang Yang thought a lot, and he even wondered whether he would reveal his inner situation without hiding his parents after seeing him, or should he pretend to be very angry and blame them for abandoning him......
Zhang Yang's mood was extremely entangled and contradictory, and unconsciously, Zhang Yang and Gu Lao came to a secluded open space, and Gu Lao slowly stopped.
"Your parents' home has arrived!" Gu Lao turned his head sideways and said expressionlessly.
"It's already here?" Zhang Yang heard this, his eyes were straight, his face was full of incredulity, he couldn't help but look around, and then stared at Gu Lao puzzled, "Old man, you're not kidding, are you?
In fact, at this time, Zhang Yang was already a little uneasy in his heart, and he was even thinking about the worst, but he was just ...... He couldn't accept it, so he could only pretend to be calm and asked.
Gu Lao stretched out his hand and pointed to the foot of the mountain at the end of the clearing, "When you walk to the foot of the mountain, you can see your parents' home." β
Zhang Yang glanced in the direction of Gu Lao's finger a few times, nodded woodenly, without any expression on his face, step by step, walking forward slowly and firmly.
For Zhang Yang, every step forward, his heart is a kind of torment, he is not only afraid, but also panicked, he is afraid that what he thinks will ...... Become a fact!
However, Zhang Yang did not escape, and still walked forward, because he knew that even if something big happened, as long as it happened, he needed to bear it silently......
From the open space to the foot of the mountain, this section of the road is not long, only a few hundred meters, but for Zhang Yang, this section of the road seems to have no end and no end......
In fact, in his heart, he also hopes that this road will have no end and will never be completed, because in this case...... You can live in fantasy yourself, at least ...... There is still hope in the heart, which can be regarded as a way of self-escape and paralysis......
Unconsciously, Zhang Yang had come to the foot of the mountain, and he saw at a glance that there was a tomb at the foot of the mountain.
After seeing this, Zhang Yang's whole body trembled like an electric shock, his feet were weak, his feet staggered, and the whole person almost sat on the ground, his brain was blank, and he was stunned there.
His heart sank, and a sense of foreboding went straight to his heart.
Zhang Yang stood in place, stunned for more than ten seconds, he came back to his senses, his face was solemn, he swallowed his saliva, and walked forward slowly......
When he came to the tomb, his eyes looked directly at the blurred tombstone in front of him, and on the tombstone, he saw the names of his parents, and also saw his own name engraved in the lower right corner of the tombstone, behind his son.
Zhang Yang originally thought that his feelings for his parents had diluted with the passage of time, no matter what the news was, he wouldn't care too much, until this time, he knew that he was too naΓ―ve......
When he saw the grave of his parents, his chest seemed to be tightly pressed by a boulder, so that he could not breathe, his heart ached like a knife, tears kept dripping, and he knelt heavily in front of his parents' grave.
Tears blurred his vision, and he cried as he said in a trembling, sad voice, "Mom and Dad, I'm ...... I've come to see you, you...... Why did you just leave without a word, did you just abandon me?"
Just as Zhang Yang was talking to himself in pain, Gu Lao also slowly walked to Zhang Yang's side, didn't say anything, and stood quietly like this.
"Old man, this ...... What the hell is going on? My parents, how can they be buried here?" Zhang Yang's voice was a little choked, and he asked in a low voice.
Gu Lao slowly closed his eyes, as if he was also controlling his emotions, and after a while, he opened his eyes, "Your parents were important people in the Blood Sacrifice Pavilion just like you when they were alive, and they died in the line of duty while performing a secret mission......
Speaking of this, Gu Lao raised his wrinkled hand and rubbed his eyes, "They are heroes of the country, but because of their special status, they can't be buried, so they can only be laid to rest here." β
"Now you should know why I brought you into the army in the first place, and I would let you join the Blood Sacrifice Pavilion!
"I really don't know what kind of mood your parents would have felt if they knew that you had quit the Blood Sacrifice Pavilion, whether they would be happy for you or disappointed......" Gu Lao said in a low voice. Cat flutter Chinese
