Chapter 50: Returning Home

I lay in the hospital for a whole week before I could barely get rid of the negative effects of the loss of yang energy. When I went back to school, Xun Qingzi really didn't know me anymore, and I met her in school several times, but they all passed by indifferently, which caused me to feel melancholy in my heart.

Jian Huiqian knew that I was uncomfortable, and tried every means to create an opportunity for me and Xun Qingzi to get to know each other again, but every time I approached the agreed time, there would be a sudden change, either I suddenly had something or she canceled it temporarily.

In a blink of an eye, it was the eleventh holiday, and the trip that was originally planned with Xun Qingzi and Jian Huiqian was also shelved because of this incident. In order to dissipate his feelings, he decided to return to his hometown in Danjiang, Northeast China, to accompany his parents.

The green train slowly stopped on the platform of Danjiang Station, and I dragged my boxes through the crowd before I could get off the train before the doors closed. As soon as I looked up, I saw my father's face with some vicissitudes.

"Dad, why are you here?"

I temporarily put aside my somewhat low mood because of Xun Qingzi, and asked with a smile. You must know that my father, a rough Northeast man, has never picked me up at the station.

My dad slapped me on the back, took the luggage in my hand, and laughed:

"It's not that you don't know your mother, she knows you're coming back, and she smacks me up early in the morning."

When I think of my mother's fiery figure, I laugh in my heart.

"But little rabbit, why do you want to go home during the eleventh holiday and not go out with your classmates?"

Unlike other parents who wish their children would come home every day, my parents have always hoped that I would be better off not coming home, saying that they didn't want me to disturb their two-person world. I said so, but in fact, every time I went home, the second elder waited for me at the station early.

What my father asked reminded me of Xun Qingzi's incident again, and I was slightly stunned, so I had to grin forcibly and smirked:

"Isn't this missing you, and my classmates have something to do during the holidays, and no one goes out with me to travel."

My dad didn't seem to notice anything unusual about me, but just patted me on the shoulder and said with relief:

"Yes, my son has grown up and knows that he is homesick."

I stuck out my tongue, but I didn't speak.

Following my father out of the station hall, my father's somewhat dilapidated van was parked on the side of the road, but there was a white traffic police ticket floating on the driver's window. I'm used to it, but I don't know how many times my father has been fined for parking carelessly.

My dad was in a hurry, and rushed forward in three steps and two steps, tore off the ticket, hid it in his arms, and looked around like a thief, as if he was afraid that my mother would find out. But in his mouth, he cursed and said:

"Won't I just stop for a while, and I'm going to be arrested. If your mother finds out, you'll have to scold me again. ”

Looking at this familiar scene, I couldn't help laughing, leaned forward, and said:

"Dad, I told you not to park randomly."

My dad just muttered and excused:

"What do little bunnies know, you don't know how expensive it is to go to the parking lot for an hour. Your dad doesn't have any money, you are a full man who doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man. ”

Every time I teach my dad, he is the same set of rhetoric, and I don't bother to say it again, anyway, my dad has money, so he can pay the fine if he likes to.

Don't look at my dad like a rough man who is careful about his calculations, he is one of the best grain merchants in our entire Danjiang, and the money he earns every year just by buying rice from the Northeast is enough to cover our family's expenses for two or three years, plus some other additional industries, although he is not a super rich, our family can also live a very prosperous life.

But even so, my parents taught me to pay attention to saving since I was a child, so much so that I never took a plane to Dalian since I was a child. My dad's broken van has been pulling food at my house since I was born, and then the power couldn't keep up, so it became my dad's scooter. Every time I told him to let him change to a better car, a big boss can't drive this kind of broken car, he always said that this car can still be driven, and I will change it when I go to college. As a result, I didn't change it now.

"Little rabbit, what a god, put your luggage in the car."

My dad shouted as he stood in front of the trunk of the car. I came to my senses, threw my luggage in the trunk, and sat in the van, which was a little shaky.

My dad closed the trunk and got into the driver's seat, still complaining about being ticketed.

"By the way, Dad, hasn't my master come back yet?"

I heard him complain that he was a little irritated and changed the subject.

My master hasn't been in touch with me since I left before I went to college, and although I know that he has always been a dragon and doesn't wake his tail, but it's the first time that he hasn't heard from him for so long.

My dad finally listened to the nagging, shook his head, and replied:

"No, but then we found something that your master wrote for you under your mattress, and we always wanted to show it to you, but we always forgot it."

As he spoke, he took out a crumpled piece of white paper from his bosom and handed it to me.

I took the palm-sized piece of paper. It was indeed my master's rough handwriting on the paper, but it was only eight words.

"ghasts move, be careful."

These words made my heart tremble violently, and my back couldn't help but be soaked with cold sweat. I felt that the number of monsters and ghosts I had encountered in the past month in Shenzhen and Hong Kong was a bit outrageous, but I didn't expect my master to have a premonition of this very early and left me a note to remind me to pay attention. It seems that in this world, there is really going to be a storm.

"Rabbit cub, what kind of god is stunned, is there any problem?"

My dad's rough voice interrupted my thoughts. I shook my head and motioned to my father to reassure.

"Dad, you and Mom haven't encountered monsters, ghosts, or anything like that lately, have you?"

I asked.

Although my parents are no different from mortals, they are still born with some spiritual power, otherwise they would not have been able to give birth to a child with strong spiritual power like me. Although they can't cast powerful spells like me, their ability to perceive ghosts and demons is still more than ordinary people.

My dad shook his head and said with a big grin:

"No, although your parents don't have as strong spiritual power as you, but they still have some too ordinary people's perception of ghosts and monsters, and I haven't felt that kind of evil aura in the whole Danjiang recently, and even if there is, they are also some souls who have just become ghosts, and they were not long received by the passing yin."

Indeed, I was a little worried. Although the spiritual power of my father and mother is only the tip of the iceberg in my opinion, ordinary ghosts are not close to me at all.

"What's wrong? There are a lot of these monsters in Shenzhen? ”

My dad asked rhetorically.

I hesitated, wondering if I should tell my father about this. But looking at his father's eyes that couldn't hide his worry, he still decided to say it, after all, he was the closest family member.

"Yes, I've encountered more monsters and ghosts in this month than in previous years combined."

Unexpectedly, my father didn't say anything more, but turned his head to stare at the windshield. The atmosphere in the car was eerily quiet.

After a long time, my father spoke slowly:

"Don't tell your mom about it, she'll be worried about you. Outside, stay safe. I know that your master told you since I was a child that as a warlock, when you encounter a demon, you must rush to protect others as soon as possible. But I, as a father, want you to take care of your safety in this situation, and if you make any mistakes, thousands of people will be killed by the demon because of the loss of your protection. ”

There was a warm current in my heart, although my father did not express his concern and love for me, but every word in his words was full of thoughts that hoped that I would be well.

I nodded heavily and agreed.

My father had a pleased smile on his face, but as if he had suddenly thought of something, he said to me with some excitement:

"Do you remember your Uncle Hu? He's back! ”

When I heard this, I couldn't wait. This so-called Uncle Hu's big name is Hu Kunming, who has been a friend of my father for many years, and he turned out to be an officer at the rank of major. When I was young, I often went to his house, and every time I went, Uncle Hu would tell me some stories about my time in the army, and I listened to them with relish. Later, when he heard that the army was transferred, he was promoted to rank and officer, and he was transferred to the armed forces department of the provincial capital as a leader, so he moved out of Danjiang, and he hadn't seen him for seven or eight years.

"Your Uncle Hu's energy is great now, he is now the leader of the Armed Forces Department of the provincial capital, with the rank of colonel, and he is one step away from the general." My dad praised me next to him, and he taught me again. "He came back to visit us this time, you have to be polite to people, you can't be as casual as you were when you were a child."

"Oh Dad, I know, I'm not a kid anymore."

I amused at my father's senseless worries and said yes.

My dad muttered in a low voice:

"Well, you're a little bunny in my eyes."

The car drove for more than ten minutes before it slowly stopped in front of an earthen wall compound.

I jumped out of the car, and without taking my luggage, I shouted at the half-open courtyard door:

"Mom! I am back! ”

Hearing the sound of jingling bells inside, a beautiful woman in an apron ran out in a hurry, pushed open the door, and said in surprise:

"Xiao Mu is back, your mother is breading dumplings in it."

I was wondering, but my dad pushed me hard and said:

"Rabbit cub, don't you know your Aunt Hu anymore?"

I just remembered that this is Uncle Hu's wife, I really don't know what her surname is, anyway, I have always called her Aunt Hu. Since I was a child, except for my parents and my master, she loved me the most. Every time I went to Uncle Hu's house, no matter what she was doing, she would make me something to eat as soon as possible, so much so that my mother nagged me every day, saying that she had fed me fat.

I smiled innocently, touched the back of my head a little embarrassedly, and apologized:

"I'm sorry, Aunt Hu, I don't even dare to recognize you if you maintain it so well."

"Rhetoric!"

My dad slapped me on the back of the head and explained to Aunt Hu:

"Sister-in-law, don't mind, this little rabbit cub is floating in college."

Aunt Hu giggled, waved her hand again and again, and said:

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm too late to see Xiao Mu grow up so happy. Come on in, the dumplings are almost ready. ”
