Chapter 18: Father's Letters
Mao Yuwen said so much, but he only talked about his father's past deeds, and many important points were not touched.
For example, the jade pendant incident, the reason for running away from home, and why he told Mao Yuwen to watch himself secretly, etc...
All this is what Yue Thirteen is curious about, and the answer may be in the letter left by his father.
Mao Yuwen nodded when he heard this, he had said enough today, it was time to go back.
"Well, let's go, go home. ”
He said, walking home with his feet up.
When he was closer to home, Mao Yuwen suddenly stopped and sighed: "Well, there is braised pork and fresh fish soup, not bad!"
As he spoke, he sniffed vigorously with his nose, revealing an intoxicated expression.
Yue 13 followed aside, smiled and nodded.
...
Back in the Beiwan community, Xue Xiaotong was sitting at the door with a small bench, holding a lollipop in his hand, patiently waiting for the thirteenth month to come back.
"Little boy, why don't you go into the house, the sun is so strong outside, it's all tanned. ”
As soon as she entered the door, Mao Yuwen smiled kindly at the little girl.
"It's okay, black is really a good man, and white is a bastard. ”
The little girl talked about the children's smooth talk seriously.
"Hahaha! No wonder I'm black. ”
Mao Yuwen said with a smile.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard the little girl say seriously: "No, Uncle Mao, you are not black, Uncle Mao is very white." ”
Mao Yuwen: "......"
"Little boy, don't talk nonsense!"
Yue 13 hurriedly stepped forward and pressed the little girl's head.
"Don't touch my head, or I won't grow tall. ”
The little girl hurriedly dodged.
"Uncle Mao, Xiaotong, she is not sensible yet. ”
Moon Thirteen explained to Mao Yuwen.
"It's okay, it's okay, Xiaotong, she's right, old man, I haven't been in the sun for almost twenty years, and I'm not exposed to that ultraviolet ray, it's really whiter, right? hahaha. ”
Mao Yuwen said with a smile, not angry.
"Yes, snow white, white and red!"
At this time, Aunt Zhang walked out of the kitchen with an apron and said to Mao Yuwen Yin and Yang.
"How can it be so exaggerated?"
Mao Yuwen retorted.
It's good that he doesn't refute this, but as soon as he refutes, Aunt Zhang immediately sneered: "Hey, you're really embarrassed, you said that you are in your fifties, almost sixty years old, and you still say that you are not in vain?
Aunt Zhang said, waved the spatula in her hand, and counted Mao Yuwen.
Hearing that Aunt Zhang began to think again, Mao Yuwen immediately coughed dryly.
Then he said seriously: "Cui'er, I'll go get something for Thirteen'er, it's very important." ”
With that, he ran upstairs as if he were running away.
Oh, there was no way to be paralyzed in bed before, I could only listen to your broken thoughts there, but now we can run and hide, of course we have to hide.
"An old boy, legs (fast)!"
Aunt Zhang scolded later, sighed, didn't say anything more, and continued to go back to the kitchen to cook.
Yue 13 smiled when he saw this scene.
followed Mao Yuwen to the second floor.
The second floor of Mrs. Zhang's house is usually not occupied, and it is kept to store sundries, so it is very messy.
Mao Yuwen rummaged for about ten minutes before he found an iron box.
After opening it, I rummaged through it and found it.
A small red trembling wooden box, covered with dust, and a sense of oldness that has been worn by the years comes to the face.
Mao Yuwen handed it over to Yue Thirteen very solemnly.
Yue 13 took it, nodded to Mao Yuwen, and then opened it.
Inside was a letter, sealed in a plastic bag.
Taking out the letter, Yue 13 put it in his hand and looked at it.
The text on it is indeed in his father's handwriting, and his mother once showed him the books and diaries written by his father when he was a child.
So Yue Thirteen remembers that handwriting very well.
Yue 13 patiently read the letter left by his father, while Mao Yuwen left here silently and went downstairs.
"Thirteen, when you read this letter, you must have grown up, you have already stepped into the cultivation gate, and you can stand alone, please forgive your father for not saying goodbye, because..."
“...”
After reading the letter carefully, Yue Thirteen's brows furrowed slightly.
Because the information mentioned in this letter is just an ordinary father's words to his son, and there is nothing else important.
"Is there a secret?"
Yue 13 thought about it, but after flipping through it, he didn't find anything similar to a mechanism.
Except for a small paragraph at the end of the letter: "Burn after reading!"
"Is it hidden here?"
Moon Thirteen muttered to himself, then took out a lighter and lit it as the letter said.
The flame is like ink, and when it comes into contact with the letter, it quickly engulfs it.
There was only a small section left in the letter, but the expected anomaly had not yet occurred.
Until Mars climbs to the fingertips of the thirteenth of the month.
Moon Thirteen threw it on the ground, and watched as the letter burned to the ground.
The mutation still hasn't happened.
Month 13: "..."
He was stunned, could it be that his father had wasted his boss's strength, and he quietly found Mao Yuwen in plain clothes and left a letter, just to tell him how much his father missed him and other common words, and didn't talk about anything serious?
This doesn't make sense, he didn't even mention the reason for his departure, and the fact that he was the founder of the Scarlet Great Wall.
"Could it be that the purpose of burning after reading is to prevent information leakage?"
Yue Thirteen thought about it, but quickly shook her head again.
"The letter doesn't contain any important information, so there's no need to worry about leaking it...!"
The thirteenth of the month couldn't figure it out.
So, he crouched down and picked through the ashes, trying to see if there was any material in the letter.
But as a result, there was nothing in it, and it was really burned to ashes.
"Isn't it?"
Yue 13 scratched his head.
But it was this inadvertent action that made the ashes on his fingers suddenly light up, and then drilled into Yue Thirteen's mind.
At the same time, the jade pendant in the dantian in the thirteenth month trembled slightly, and a warm current was shot out of it, through the meridians of the thirteenth month, sucking these ashes into it.
Yue 13 naturally noticed the change, but he didn't stop it, but pressed his palm on the ashes very cooperatively. I inhaled it all into my body.
Yu Pei absorbed the ashes of the letter, and immediately emitted a warm current that spread throughout Yue Thirteen's body.
At the same time, a point of light suddenly lit up under the feet of Yue Thirteen, and the surrounding scene suddenly began to collapse
Then it's like turning off the lights.
The surroundings turned into a dark, cold space.
"What's going on?"
Yue Thirteen was puzzled in his heart, but he could only hear the echo in his heart, as if he was talking to himself in his heart.
And just when he didn't know why, a blazing light curtain suddenly lit up in the dark space, lighting up the place as if it were day.
At the same time, the surrounding scene began to change rapidly.
After a few breaths, the scene is solidified.
"This...?"
The pupils of the thirteenth month constricted, full of incredulity.
In front of him, a world like a fairyland, towering mountains and green, fairy breath, above the sky, thousands of fairy islands floating floating palace, there are white cranes, green luan, and some other birds soaring, under the sky, ten thousand green blooms, silver-white waterfalls from the towering cliff layer by layer, through the ten thousand mountains.
