Chapter 63: Chinese New Year's Eve
Early this morning, Lin Hang and Tian Dayong were busy with the affairs of Chinese New Year's Eve.
As Tian Dayong said, he has nothing to worry about now, and only regards the military camp as his home, so he has been staying in this military base when he has no tasks. Originally, this base was used as a military training camp, but it is actually closed to the public in normal times, so there is no one here except for the personnel stationed there. It was now Chinese New Year's Eve in China, and Tian Dayong took the initiative to propose that he stay at the base alone for the New Year in order to let other stationed comrades-in-arms go home for the New Year, and only then did he get together with Lin Hang's master and apprentice.
Needless to say, Lin Hang spent the previous eight years of Chinese New Year's Eve alone, lonely. Wang Lao has not had a family for so many years, and has always been alone. Now the three of them happen to be teaming up together, and they have a different year.
Today, Lin Hang and Tian Dayong did not discuss as they did a few days ago, but calmed down and prepared the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. Lin Hang had already gone to the nearest town in advance to buy all the ingredients, just waiting for the evening to show his hand.
At six o'clock in the evening, Lin Hang prepared a table of sumptuous dishes, and there was no shortage of chicken, duck and fish. Lin Hang poured a full glass of wine for Wang Lao and the two who had already sat down, raised his glass, and said to the two, "Teacher, Brother Tian, we want to have a drink!"
The three of them drank it all, and Lin Hang filled it up for the two of them again and began to eat the food. Although Lin Hang has not learned to cook seriously, he has lived alone all these years, and his cooking skills are not bad, coupled with the blessing of the wood ability, Wang Lao and the others are also full of praise for Lin Hang's skills.
The meal was eaten until nearly twelve o'clock in the laughter of the three of them, and Lin Hang took out the prepared firecrackers and put them in the open space at the door, just waiting for them to be ignited as soon as twelve o'clock arrived.
At twelve o'clock, Lin Hang raised his hand and lit the fuse of the firecracker, listening to the sound of 'crackling' outside and the laughter of Wang Laotian Dayong, Lin Hang felt the atmosphere of the New Year that he had not had for a long time, and the last time he spent the New Year together like this was with his parents. Time flew by in a blink of an eye, nearly nine years had passed, and he still hadn't seen his parents, Lin Hang suddenly fell silent.
Wang Lao obviously noticed Lin Hang's changes, looked at the scene in front of him, and also understood Lin Hang's feelings, and said softly, "Hang'er, do you miss your father again?"
Lin Hang smiled reluctantly at Wang Lao and said, "Teacher, it's nothing, just some feelings." You say, when can I see my parents?" Wang Lao thought for a while and said, "Hang'er, I didn't want to tell you about this matter before, but now that I see your appearance, I still can't bear to hide it from you." This time, because of the mission, I went to the United States and got some news related to your father. “
When Lin Hang heard Wang Lao's words, his eyes widened suddenly, and he asked in disbelief, "Teacher, are you telling the truth?
Wang Lao stretched out his hand to signal Lin Hang to calm down a little, and then said, "Hang'er, I haven't seen your father, but I got news of his recent movements. Our military also knows a little bit about your father's affairs back then, and we military also know about it when he finally decided to leave China after living in seclusion for many years. He has been just trying to find a way to return to China again in the open and honest all these years, and it seems that Mi has the answer he wants. ”
Lin Hang also calmed down from the excitement just now, and asked, "Teacher, what news did you get, tell me." I know I don't have the power to do these things now, I'm not going to be impulsive. ”
Seeing that Lin Hang was able to stay calm at this time, Wang Lao couldn't help but nod and smile, "Hang'er, this time it's the opposite, I'm going to give you a task, which is to go to the United States to find out about something." ”
Lin Hang asked curiously, "Let me go to the United States? Is the matter related to my father?"
Wang Lao said, "Your father seems to be looking for something, so he frequently appeared in the eastern region of the rice country some time ago, and the ability world of the rice country seems to be very fond of your father, and sent a lot of people to search for your father's traces." We also attach great importance to this matter, so I want you to go to the United States to investigate this matter. Of course, your strength is still relatively weak, I'm just letting you know about the situation, don't put yourself in danger!"
After that, Wang Lao handed Lin Hang something. Lin Hang took it curiously and found that it was a pendant in the shape of a six-pointed star, and Wang Lao immediately introduced, "You have my space-time ability, and now that you have broken through to the day after tomorrow, I shouldn't have worried about your safety." But when I heard you say that you were disrupted by the Black Lair killers that day, I realized that some forces have made some progress in their research on my abilities. So I made this pendant, it has no other function, just to help you stabilize the spatial order around you, so that you can activate the ability, with this, I believe you shouldn't have any problems, but don't take it lightly, don't take risks that you can't take at this stage, you know?"
Listening to Wang Lao's earnest words and his deep concern for himself, Lin Hang warmed up from the bottom of his heart, and responded in a loud voice, "Teacher, don't worry! I will definitely complete the task you gave me well this time, and I will pay attention to protecting my own safety." ”
Wang Lao nodded with satisfaction, but Tian Dayong on the side couldn't help but speak, "Wang Lao, you haven't forgotten me, have you?"
Wang Lao glanced at Tian Dayong and said casually, "I do have this idea, but you don't seem to be very stable, how can I rest assured that I will hand over such a heavy task to you!"
Hearing Wang Lao's words, Tian Dayong was a little anxious, and hurriedly said, "Wang Lao! Others don't know about my Lao Tian, don't you still know? You can say that you have watched me grow up, how stable my Lao Tian is, you can rest assured if you give me this task!"
Lin Hang looked at Tian Dayong, who hurriedly expressed his position, couldn't help laughing, and said, "Okay, Brother Tian, the teacher is joking with you! His old man must have decided early on that I would be with you, so don't show your loyalty here!"
It's no wonder that Tian Dayong couldn't see it for a while, it was really because Wang Lao had always been unsmiling in his impression, how could he have thought that he would actually joke today. What he didn't know was that since he accepted Lin Hang as an apprentice, Wang Lao's heart had also undergone some changes, and he was no longer so low.
Wang Lao said with a smile at this time, "Hang'er, in addition to Tian Dayong, I am also going to arrange two helpers for you, and they will go to the United States with you." In addition to checking this matter with you, it also gives them a chance to exercise. ”
Lin Hang was a little curious, who did Wang Lao find to go to the United States with him.
