Chapter Seventy-Six: Rules
Seeing Qin Ming nodding, Yi Shaodong nodded unexpectedly, thought for a while and said:
"The Hidden Family is similar to what Su Zhan said before.
Each family has a very long history, and there are various rules that bind people.
Our Yi family has a history of more than 1,000 years, and I don't know how many years it is and how it originated.
I may know later, but I don't have the qualifications to know at the moment.
These families, who are particularly particular about inheritance, usually use very extreme methods in order to be able to achieve inheritance and achieve better inheritance. Even at the expense of their own children.
Just to pass on a secret. ”
"Secret?"
"Hmm. It may be the secret of the birth of the family, or it may be the secret technique of cultivating spiritual energy, or it may be a family heirloom.
You can also understand it as a mission, passed from generation to generation, from generation to generation.
Our Yi family is also like this, since childhood, we will accept the brainwashing of various rules and missions.
Let everyone have a strong sense of family and family mission.
We are not allowed to leave our homes until we are fourteen, nor are we allowed to make contact with anyone in the outside world.
Every day is forced to cultivate one's body, refine one's body, and learn the methods passed down from the family.
The children in the family usually have to be commensurate with each other, and compete with each other, and only when they meet the standards of the elders can they gain some freedom and be allowed to leave home.
It may be difficult for you to understand when I say this, but if I tell you that my childhood is no different from going to prison, you will understand.
As for family affection and the like, it is even more difficult for people to feel.
You don't meet the criteria and will really be beaten like a dead dog, no matter how old you are, whether you are a boy or a girl.
Looking back now, we at that time were like a group of animals trapped in cages and whipped by animal trainers every day.
And you can't resist yet, because as long as you have the slightest idea of resisting, you will be regarded as a rebel by the family, and you will be regarded as a sinner.
If it's serious, you'll be beaten to death in front of everyone.
In fact, if you don't know the outside world, if you really can't hear any sounds from the outside world, if you can't feel anything from the outside world, it won't be like this.
But on the contrary, we can learn everything about the outside world.
There will be senior brothers who are outside coming back and secretly telling us how good the outside world is, and we can all feel it from the books we study.
But when you accept the most feudal and traditional constraints and confinement, and at the same time feel the openness of the outside world, the collision of these two extremes will really make you crazy about it.
I've resisted, too, with my sister.
We fled from our homes, far, far away, with nowhere to go, no food, but we were happy in our hearts because we tasted the feeling of freedom.
But what is freedom?
You may not be associated with danger, but I will tell you that freedom is danger.
Especially after that damn rainy night. ”
Yi Shaodong was roaring with red eyes, and the rumbling music in the nightclub perfectly covered up a man's hysteria.
Only Qin Ming could hear what Yi Shaodong said again, and he could also feel the sadness, anger, and indescribable resentment in his heart.
"How did your sister go missing?"
Qin Ming asked subconsciously.
He thought that Yi Shaodong would not say it, but today's Yi Shaodong obviously had a kind of venting mentality, so he didn't even hesitate, and said directly:
"After we ran away from home, we wandered outside for a whole month, I was very young at first, and I was excited at first, but gradually I started to feel homesick.
I started telling my sister that I wanted to go back.
But my sister was very resolute, she told me that the house was hell and that if I went back, I would stay in it for the rest of my life.
Only by escaping can you be free.
I didn't know that at the time, especially on that day, when I had a terrible burn and the two of us hid in a barn in the same house.
I cried and told my sister that I wanted to go home and that she wanted her to contact the family to pick us up.
My sister saw that I was burning too badly and finally agreed to my request.
Let me stop running around and wait here for her to come back.
But I was worried that my sister would lie to me, so after she left, I ran out without permission. I eventually fainted on the way, and by the time I woke up, my dad had already found me.
I asked them where my sister was, and they shook their heads and didn't answer.
Later, I found out that my sister was missing.
Since that day, he has not returned.
I caused her to disappear because I couldn't stand it at first, and I was the one who wanted to escape in the first place.
It was my sister who saw the pain I had experienced and wanted to sneak away with me.
Her talent is much better than mine, her family is very doting on her, she is never punished, if it weren't for me, she wouldn't want to resist.
In the end, I cheated her, like a drag oil bottle, disturbing her, and even suspicious of her.
If I had waited for her honestly that day, maybe she wouldn't have disappeared.
Perhaps, now is a different story.
I was the one who hurt her...... It's all my fault......"
Qin Ming looked at the grief-stricken Yi Shaodong and didn't say anything to comfort him, because he knew very well that Yi Shaodong didn't need comfort.
Because of comforting this kind of thing, perhaps Yi Shaodong's family has done it to him I don't know how many times.
So he didn't think that just a few words he took for granted would be able to stop Yi Shaodong's sadness and make him forget about it.
To say what he can do, or what Yi Shaodong wants him to do, is just a listener.
After all, the capacity in everyone's heart is certain, just like a memory module, once the storage is full, people will become very depressed, and they will be troubled by all kinds of ideas that pop up.
"If your family can find you, why can't they find your sister?"
Qin Ming wanted to ask this matter clearly.
Because the authorities are confused and the bystanders are clear, maybe he can see some things that Yi Shaodong didn't notice in the past.
"I don't know. But I know my family is looking for it very hard.
They shouldn't lie to me about this, after all, my sister is the potential heir of the family, and even if they hate this kind of betrayal, they will never do anything righteous to my sister.
I just searched for a long time, many years, and after I left home, I also asked people to help as much as possible, but in the end there was no news.
After I knew about the existence of the academy, I still had a little fantasy at the time, thinking that my sister's disappearance would have something to do with the academy. However, when I came in, I ruled it out completely.
Because the academy doesn't do things like arresting and robbing people. ”
