70: One glance is eternity
Most of us Chinese are too reserved, not like foreigners who dare to bravely express their truest thoughts in their hearts.
Therefore, when we sing about great family affection, friendship or love, we mostly write them into books, hide them in songs, and then seal them in the deepest part of our memory, if you don't ask, I won't talk about it.
That night, Zhao Xun and his younger brother didn't feel a trace of sleepiness, and at nearly 4 o'clock in the morning, Zhao Xun finally couldn't bear it anymore.
No, she thought she couldn't go on like this, she felt that if she waited like this, she would be waiting for her brother to find their father alone, so she decided that she would go out to find his missing father like his brother.
In the face of the pouring rain, it may have been after a whole night of fear and worry, but Zhao Xun at this time had a clear mind, and she could even accurately recall the scene when her father left the house at that time, and what they had said.
First of all, Zhao Xun decided to go to the foot of the hill in the park where Xianglian was buried before, and she thought that her father might go there.
After being washed by heavy rain, the People's Park seems to have added some more brightness than before, but not the colorful color, but the green glow.
It may be because it is almost dawn, and the sky doesn't seem to be as dark as before, but this kind of darkness is enough to make you feel that creepy feeling.
Zhao Xun groped his way to Xianglian's grave with a little glimmer of light from the flashlight, and then cautiously tentatively:
"Dad, are you there, Dad?" At this time, Zhao Xun was still silently chanting in his heart, "Excuse me, disturb Aunt Xianglian, I came to visit suddenly, don't blame, don't blame!" Excuse me, disturb Aunt Xianglian......"
Suddenly, Zhao Xun felt a cool breeze on her back, as if a hand patted her back, Zhao Xun couldn't help but shiver, if it weren't for the pouring rain at this time, Zhao Xun said that she would definitely jump!
"Ahh Who! β
Zhao came back to his senses and looked at it, it was really a terrifying rhythm.
"What are you doing, you're scaring me!"
"Sister, didn't I let you stay at home? Why did you come out too? What if Dad comes home? β
"Oh, why don't you walk without making a sound? I can't stay at home by myself. β
"Then you should tell me too! With such heavy rain, it's too dangerous for a girl to be at your house. β
"It's okay, it's okay, I can come out too, besides, it's almost dawn, it's definitely okay, if you can't find our dad later, then let's go to the police station to call the police."
"Okay, sister, why are you with me, and you also came to Aunt Xianglian to have a look."
"Mmmm, I was also thinking of coming over to try my luck, but I didn't expect you to come too, you scared me enough just now."
β so so
Y, my good sister, blame me, blame me, it seems that Dad is not here, so let's go find it somewhere else. β
"Okay, do you think Uncle Liu will come back? Why don't you go to Uncle Liu's house to have a look, I think Dad may still be able to return to the previous bone tube, so let's go separately, you go to Uncle Liu's house, and I will go to the bone tube. (Uncle Liu referred to in the previous and subsequent texts: Liu Laizi mentioned above)
After separating from his younger brother, Zhao found a single person and returned to the previous bone tube, since she was a child, this bone tube was given to Liu Ya's father, and then it was always open, and then Liu Ya's family suffered an accident, lost the bone tube, and broke people in, and now it has been nearly 20 years, Zhao Xun can't help but sigh that time has passed, she has changed from a small hairy head to a real adult.
It can be said that half of Zhao Xun's childhood memories come from the bone tube, where he writes homework, takes a lunch break in the bone tube, wipes the table for guests in the bone tube, serves food to people in the bone tube, and humiliates others in the bone tube......
Although there are all kinds of bad memories, in retrospect, the bone tube is still half of Zhao Xun's childhood, because since she can remember, the bone tube is almost all she has.
Even when she was a child, she made one of these wishes every New Year's resolution:
I hope that everyone can become rich, and then everyone will come and eat my bones, and then my dad can earn a little more money for me to go to school, and my bones are really good and delicious.
But since the bone tube was taken over by Uncle Liu, the performance is not as good as day by day, and it didn't take long for the bone tube to turn yellow.
Even if there are too many likes and too many reluctances, it will not help.
Zhao Xun hadn't been here for a few years, but he didn't expect it to be abandoned like this.
The bone pipes that were once arranged with his family are now dilapidated, and there is not even a curtain, and some doors and windows are not known to have been polished over the years, or have been smashed out of the holes by naughty children.
Zhao Xun shone it with a flashlight, and a yellowish beam of light passed through the glass window and then shot straight into the back wall of the bone tube, and Zhao Xun suddenly had the idea of wanting to go in and take a look.
Zhao Xun called softly at the door:
"Dad, Dad, are you there? Dad, are you there? β
Oh, my God! There was even an echo!
It seems that this place has been abandoned for too long.
Zhao Xun gently pushed the iron lock on the bone tube door, and opened the door easily, it seems that this iron lock is also a faΓ§ade thing.
To Zhao Xun's surprise, there was not a single spider web in the house, and Zhao Xun took the first step tentatively.
"I'm K, it's all water!"
Suddenly, Zhao Zhao's whole pair of shoes, and the water came to a close contact, Zhao Xun immediately put the light of the flashlight on the ground, sure enough, the ground was full of water, and from time to time there was rain from the top of Zhao Xun's head, Zhao Xun looked up, it was simply "the house leak coincided with the overnight rain", the house ridge that had been exposed to the wind and sun had been broken several times, and in addition to the overnight rain, the roof at this time was as comfortable as the water curtain hole of Sun Dasheng Huaguo Mountain.
Zhao Xun immediately called out to his father a few more times, but no one answered.
It seems that there is no trace of his father here, so Zhao Xun decided to set off on the next goal immediately, time is life, Zhao Xun felt that he could not waste a minute or a second.
is such a big town, Zhao Xun doesn't believe that they really can't find their father.
Although she thought so in her heart, she still couldn't control all kinds of speculations in her heart, how much she wanted to wait until 24 hours later, and then she could put her father's life in the hands of the people's police, at least in this way, she would feel a little at ease, at least in this way, so that she would not feel that no one was willing to care about her father's life and death except for herself and her younger brother.
Later, Zhao went to the mahjong parlor that his father often went to, and the owner of the mahjong parlor said that it had long since left yesterday and had never been to her father.
Then Zhao Xun went to Liu Ruiping's house, which had a good relationship with his father, but Uncle Liu Ruiping said that his father had not been here for several days.
Zhao Xun also went to the houses where his father might go to the door to ask for an understanding, in fact, Zhao Xun knew very well in his heart, the younger brother and the neighbors in these places had already looked for it over and over again.
At this time, there were already vehicles on the road, and the headlights shone on Zhao Xun's body through the rain, and Zhao Xun felt that her eyes were extremely painful. Zhao Xun, who was covered in rain, staggered down this lonely street, and from time to time a few well-wishers pulled down the car window, and then asked:
"Where is the girl? I'll give you a ride? β
Zhao Xun didn't have the strength to answer at all, so he just waved his hand at the person in the car window.
Zhao Xun thought about taking out his mobile phone to make a call to his younger brother, but he found that he might have been in a hurry when he came out, and he didn't have a mobile phone with him at all.
Zhao Xun, who was full of helplessness, could only go back along the road in front of him.
Those speculations may be true, there may really be something wrong with the father, or where the father really went, but Zhao couldn't think of the slightest precursor.
In fact, Zhao Xun didn't know that before this, in fact, the father's strangeness had already been revealed, but this daughter had not noticed it.
I don't know what kind of car made the sound of the horn make Zhao Xun feel very uncomfortable, so Zhao Xun sped up his pace.
She searched all the places she needed to find, and she really couldn't remember where her father could go, or where he would appear.
Unknowingly, Zhao Xun walked to the door of the old house, which was the old house where they had lived for 20 years before, and the old house that his father had been reluctant to move over.
"Oh my God! What is the light and how is it flashing? β
Zhao Xun stood at the door, looking at the lights in the house but turned on, she clearly remembered that after moving last time, she was the last to leave, and she would never forget to turn off the lights.
Wait, it's not the lights on, it's the lights flashing!
In an instant, Zhao Xun felt that his scalp was numb, his hands and feet were cold, and various scenes in horror movies unconsciously flashed in his mind.
On a deserted island, a man is fragmented;
In a dilapidated old house, there lives a female ghost with long hair and fluttering hair......
The moonlight was hidden behind the dark clouds, leaving only a small corner of faint, eerie light, the whistling mountain wind crossed, accompanied by the rustling of dense branches and leaves, and the residual lights in a huge floor-to-ceiling mirror in the house flickered from time to time, struggling for the last trace of light, click, suddenly, the path was dim, the whole house was shrouded in a mysterious darkness, only the flickering lights in the corner of the wall, seemed to seem more and more mysterious and weird!
Zhao Xun didn't dare to go in, she was afraid, she was very scared, unspeakably afraid, she didn't want to think about those messy things, but she really couldn't control it.
I wanted to turn my head and leave immediately, but it was as if there was some power in the dark guiding Zhao Xun, so that Zhao Xun couldn't turn around and leave, she could only break in, even if there was a sea of swords and fires in front of her, and a cliff, Zhao Xun could only choose to break through!
Zhao Xun slowly pushed open the door and crept forward, as if he was afraid of alarming something.
This night, Zhao Xun went to the cemetery, went to the abandoned bone tube, and now he is here again.
The door was not locked, and at the moment when Zhao Xun pushed open the door, Zhao Xun will never forget!
But who would have thought that one glance would be an eternity!
