Chapter 20: Who Are My Parents (3)

Under Zhiyu's persuasion and assurance, the old couple finally reluctantly left.

Zhixu sent someone to escort the two old men to a safe place, and he took a group of men to look for Yingying along the train station.

However, this time, the various gangs that came to rob Yingying also arrived one after another, and Zhisu was intercepted by a group of unknown people on the road, and the two groups fought.

After Ying Ying arrived in Erheshan Town, she experienced many thrilling pursuits related to life and death by herself, but Mr. Bi's men and horses were entangled in the road and could not get out to rescue her.

Later, it is said that another person under Uncle Bi found Yingying, who had fainted, on the shore of Huju Lake, 20 kilometers away from Erheshan Town, and brought her back.

After listening to her grandparents' descriptions, Yingying felt that this matter was really not simple.

The account that she was rescued in the end is a little different from what she remembered at the time.

Why did Mr. Bi say that his people found me by the lake?

Could it be that the person who picked me up on the lake at that time was not Mr. Bi's man, and if so, where did that person go?

Is he okay? Did he escape the spiders safely?

Ying Ying suddenly missed the "angel" in the middle of the lake, and was afraid that something would happen to him.

"Could it be, Uncle Bi was already killed by those spiders before they found out about me!" Thinking of this, she was so confused that she wanted to cry with anxiety.

But when I think about it,

"They said I fainted at the lake when they found me, and there was no mention of spiders.

Won't it ...... It can't be, I was delirious and fantasized about it, right? That would be outrageous......"

Yingying's heart was in a panic, not only afraid of her hallucination, but also worried that the "angel" did not actually exist.

The careful thinking of girls is sometimes really contradictory and tangled, like the knotted willow strips.

Yingying's grandparents once participated in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, fought devils, and buried mines, and were out-and-out good party members and pure Marxist materialists.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the old couple have been living in seclusion in the mountains, but they have never missed paying the party dues.

Every month, my grandfather would carefully wrap the party fee in a handkerchief, put it in a cowhide bag on his waist, and go down the mountain to pay the party fee to the local government.

Ying Ying has been deeply influenced by the teachings of her grandparents and the Marxist spirit since she was a child, and she has never believed in the theory that there are gods and ghosts in this world.

However, since a few days ago, she has repeatedly witnessed some strange things that are beyond nature and cannot be explained by common sense.

She used to be very firm in her materialist thinking, but after going through all the thrills, she also began to have doubts.

I wanted to say this question to my good friend Ah Shan when I was in the school infirmary, but I was interrupted by the head teacher, Mr. Jia.

For Yingying now, this world is not the same as before, it is no longer a simple world where everything can be explained with science.

She thinks that some strange things are just hidden in the depths of the world, not seen, but they may appear in front of your eyes at any time.

Ying Ying feels that all her perceptions of the world are changing.

Humans can actually fly like birds, spiders have 8 pairs of eyes, their bodies are bigger than watermelons, and pebbles can be faster than bullets......

Although her inherent materialistic thinking still makes her think these things are incredible, what she naturally believes in is her own eyes and ears, as well as her own heart.

Her heart was clear that everything that happened that night was real, real, and real, including the "angel", who was also real!

Thinking about this, her mood settled down a little.

Next, her grandparents asked her what had happened to Erheshan Town, and she said a few words lightly.

Ying Ying thought it would be better not to let her grandparents know about these weird things, because they wouldn't believe it.

However, because she wants to describe how she got to the lake, she can't help but mention the fact that Uncle "Birdman" took her to fly in the air.

Although it has been deleted, it is said lightly that the grandparents still opened their mouths wide when they heard "Birdman", and their eyes showed a look of surprise.

Later, Yingying showed her grandparents her short hairstyle, and her grandparents squinted when they saw it, and said with a smile that it looked good, much more refreshing than before.

Ying Ying found her backpack again, took out chocolate from it and gave it to her grandparents, they tasted it, and the grandmother said, "It's so bitter, it turns out that everyone in the city eats this thing." ”

Grandpa laughed at grandma: "People in the city are called bitter and sweet...... Hahaha," the three of them laughed.

After a warm reunion, Ying Ying thought of one thing in her heart and couldn't help but be silent.

This question, which has been hidden in her heart for 17 years, she finally mustered up the courage to ask it today.

"Grandpa, grandma. Who the hell are my mom and dad and why did they leave me?" she asked in a sour voice.

Hearing Yingying's question, grandpa and grandma looked at each other, and a strange expression flashed in their eyes.

Grandma shook her head at Grandpa, a pair of old but fiery eyes, all signaling him not to speak, not to speak!

Grandpa sighed, he had always been decisive and bold, but at this time, he couldn't make up his mind, a pair of big chapped and rough hands, kept rubbing his pants, as if there was something more difficult to do than ascending to the sky.

"Looks like they won't tell me anymore......" Ying Ying lowered her eyes, unconsciously her eyes were full of tears, rolling in her eyes.

Grandpa and grandma saw their granddaughter like this, their hearts were even more unbearable, grandma's old hands kept wiping her tears, grandpa took out a cigarette bag and pot from the fox skin vest, and beat the ground with the cigarette bag and pot, while sighing constantly.

Ying Ying saw the two old men like this, and her heart was also painful, she bit her lip and said softly: "Grandpa, grandma, I don't ask."

You don't have to say it, I'm not going to ask about them for the rest of my life, okay?"

With that, a line of clear tears slipped from the big eyes to the cheeks, flowed down the chin, and dripped onto the collarbone, but Yingying did not wipe it.

The family was silent, speechless and choking.

In Yingying's heart, her grandparents are her parents from childhood to adulthood, and they are the two closest and most important people in the world.

She is reluctant to embarrass them, even if she is curious about her parents' affairs, but she is not willing to make her grandparents sad because of her curiosity.

Her mind now turned to the men who were chasing them.

Who are these people, and why are they chasing us?

But it was clear that there were several groups of people robbing Yingying, and some of them were clearly intent on killing her.
