Chapter 362: Hometown

All this is not something he needs to worry about, the fate of the human beings on the earth is decided by themselves, and Zhou Ming is just a passerby here.

Born for more than 20 years, the three-month journey changed Zhou Ming's original life trajectory.

What is still alive now is probably only a soul named Zhou Ming. His original body and mind had long since disappeared with an incomplete crossing.

"I don't know, that person, how is he doing now......"

Zhou Ming muttered softly, turned his gaze slightly, looked at the dim scenery outside the window, picked up his mobile phone, and pressed the number that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Fingers lightly tapped on the dial key, and with the transmission of information radio waves, in a distant corner of China, the ringtone that had not been ringing for a long time finally came from an old-fashioned smartphone.

"Hey, may I ask who you are?"

On the other end of the phone, a slightly hoarse and low voice slowly vibrated through the earpiece coil of the mobile phone and reached Zhou Ming's ears.

When Zhou Ming heard this voice, his heart couldn't stop trembling. It seemed like he hadn't heard this familiar voice for a long time.

His expressionless face was dyed with a layer of sentimentality at this time, his disappearance may have brought him a lot of blows, and from his old father's voice, he vaguely heard a trace of exhaustion.

"Hello uncle, I am a friend of Zhou Ming. ”

Zhou Ming was stunned for a moment, came back from his thoughts, and said to Zhou Zhixing.

"Zhou Ming's friend?"

The voice on the other end of the phone fluctuated significantly, but he still suppressed his emotions and asked, "Excuse me, is there any news from Zhou Ming?"

Zhou Ming sighed, he knew that Zhou Zhixing already knew about his disappearance, and he might even come to the magic capital to understand the situation.

In Zhou Ming's impression, Zhou Zhixing is a serious and rigid person, he is an old farmer who looks quite cold and arrogant on the surface, but in fact, he remembers his family very much.

This is true to one's wife, and so it is to one's sons.

Zhou Zhixing has not done any big career in his life, he is just an ordinary man who can no longer be ordinary.

There were successive changes in the family, but Zhou Zhixing survived, first his wife Rong Yixue died of disease, and then Zhou Ming disappeared for no reason.

The separation of wives is the most appropriate way to describe this situation.

Zhou Zhixing even doubted whether he was a lone star, his wife died, his son disappeared, and in the end, he was the only one left in the second half of his life.

Now a call from a stranger who claims to be "Zhou Ming's friend" has rekindled the flame of hope in his heart. He only hoped that this time it would not be bad news, because he had lost too much, his only son, and hoped that he was still alive.

"I haven't heard from Zhou Ming yet, but I Zhou Ming has left a deposit in my name. Now that he's missing, I think, it's time to return the money to you. ”

Zhou Ming's expression was gloomy, he didn't want to use his current body appearance to deceive his old father, although he had many magical spells to change his appearance after building the foundation, but in the face of his dearest relative, he didn't want to use this kind of camouflage method.

"No need, I live alone and don't spend much money, since Zhou Ming put this money in your name, it means that you are a person worthy of his trust. I don't know your name, but I hope you're a kind girl. ”

Zhou Zhi's jargon has an inexplicable meaning.

Zhou Ming was stunned for a moment, then understood, he smiled slightly, and said: "Don't worry, although Zhou Ming and I haven't known each other for a long time, we will definitely not be the kind of person who deceives others." This happens to be the National Day holiday, I happen to be free, and when the time comes, I will visit you, don't refuse. ”

The other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and finally seemed to let out a long sigh: "You and Zhou Ming know each other, they are his friends, and I welcome you to come to my house as guests at any time." ”

"My name is Shen Yue, so I'll bother you then. ”

After speaking, Zhou Ming put down his phone and lowered his head silently.

Time flies, and soon it will be the day of the National Day holiday.

"Xia Yan is happy, come on!"

The first rays of the morning sun shone down, and on the misty road, a young and beautiful woman stepped down from a BMW, she waved her hand at the three figures walking towards her in the distance, and shouted excitedly.

"Sister Chang, why are you so early? We said we were going to have breakfast. ”

Chu Xinran took Liu Yan's right hand and jumped in front of He Chang first.

"I've prepared breakfast for you guys in the car, and we'll have a little on the way later. ”

He Chang was a little impatient to set off as soon as possible, if it was late, he would have to be stuck on the highway.

This holiday Golden Week, it is best to travel at a staggered peak, otherwise, the subsequent traffic jam waiting may make people crazy.

"This is Aunt Liu Yan, right? I'm He Chang, I thought you were Xinran's sister. ”

When He Chang saw Liu Yan beside Chu Xinran, his eyes lit up and he smiled.

Liu Yan smiled, this is not the first time that others have mistaken her and Chu Xinran for sisters. She smiled and said, "Hello, I'm Xinran's mother." ”

In the past two days, Liu Yan has drawn a clear relationship with Chu Tiankuo, Chu Tiankuo was seriously injured, and after she paid the medical expenses for this man, she directly dissolved the relationship between her and Chu Tiankuo through legal channels.

And the relationship between Chu Xinran and her is also slowly warming up, and the mother and daughter are now like glue, and they are tired of being together almost all the time.

"Xiao Chang, won't it be too early now. ”

Xia Yan glanced at his mobile phone, and a look of hesitation appeared in his eyes. The message she sent to Shen Yue last night, she hasn't replied yet.

"It's not early, travel off-peak to avoid traffic jams. ”

He Chang was a little puzzled, why did Xia Yan look like she was hiding something in her heart?

"Well, let's go, then. ”

Xia Yan put down her phone and sat in the car with He Chang and them.

"Xia Yan, the four of us just have a car today, and your BMW is still eating dirt in the garage, aren't you a little unhappy?"

He Chang checked the control instrument on the car and subconsciously asked Xia Yan.

Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, and smiled at He Chang: "How come, with an old driver like you, I don't want to bother to drive." ”

"That's good, I thought you were such a cautious person, you hesitated last night when I said I would only drive one car, I thought you were angry because of this. ”

He Chang held the steering wheel and turned the key in front of him.

Xia Yan glanced at He Chang, "Do I seem to be such a cautious person?"

"Of course you're not! Our family's Xia Yan is one of everyone's best girls!"

He Chang grinned.

"I know and I say. ”

Xia Yan pinched the soft flesh on He Chang's waist with some shame, and said coquettishly.

"Haha! I know it's wrong, I know it's wrong! Sit down, old Si Ji is going to drive!"

He Chang begged for mercy again and again, and after Xia Yan let go of her hand, she fastened her seat belt and soon started the car.

"Sister Chang, come on, soar!"

Chu happily shouted excitedly.

"Gladly, be serious. ”

Liu Yan patted Chu Xinran's little brain melon and said angrily.

"Mom~ People are excited, it's hard to come out to play. ”

Chu happily stuck out his tongue.

The four women in the car laughed and started their journey.

In Huaxia, on the fields around a remote town in Yuancheng, a young girl wearing a black sun hat and carrying a black backpack is walking on this somewhat wet dirt path.

"This uncle, do you know how Zhou Zhixing goes?"

The girl had a pair of white canvas shoes on her feet, and it was strange that she walked on the dirty road, but the shoes were not stained in the slightest.

"Oh, you said Lao Zhou, his house is at the end of the freshly paved cement road in front. Little girl, look at your dress, are you from the city?"

The uncle was fertilizing the sprouted cabbage heart in his field, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw the girl's delicate and fair face.

"Hmm. ”

The girl nodded and smiled at the simple uncle.

"Is there news from that kid Zhou Ming?"

The uncle's eyes moved, as if he remembered something, and suddenly asked the girl.

"I came here this time just for Zhou Ming's business. ”

With a smile on her face, the girl turned and walked out of the field to the wide concrete path.

The girl was Zhou Ming, he hurried overnight last night and flew directly from Lincheng to Yuancheng.

After the foundation was built, this world was so big that he was allowed to roam, and now even if there is no means of transportation, Zhou Ming can achieve a leap between urban areas in a very short time.

Although his speed is not as fast as spatial teleportation, he still knows a little bit about the means of a thousand miles in an instant.

Zhou Ming's current appearance has attracted the attention of many uncles and aunts in the village, and it is only about five o'clock in the morning, but some aunts and aunts have now begun to work in the fields with farm tools on their backs.

"Who is this girl? Why don't you see it in the village?"

"Second aunt, will you go up and inquire?"

"Go, go, I'll inquire about something! Didn't you see her go to Lao Zhou's house? It must be someone's daughter-in-law who has returned. ”

"You said that Zhou Ming's kid? Isn't he working hard outside? Some time ago, my mother Xu next door said that the son of the old Zhou family was missing, and I don't know if it's true or not. ”

"Zhou Ming is missing, why don't I know?"

"Don't talk about it, Lao Zhou may be upset now. ”

"Yes, yes, hurry up and work, today I want to sow all this half acre of land with ......"

Zhou Ming listened to their discussion and couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head.

How could these aunts and aunts know that it was Zhou Ming himself who walked past them now.

Zhou Ming walked across the cement road, looked at the small bungalow in front of him, and the distractions in his heart settled down for a while. All his thoughts seemed to return to the hazy time at the beginning.

"Mom, I'm back. ”

"Xiao Ming is back, come over for dinner. ”

"Mom, where's Dad?"

"Your dad is working in the fields, and you'll bring him the food in the basket later. ”

"Good. ”
