I fought with the master all the way to home, and the master stayed for dinner, as for the things in the cave, no matter how I asked, the old man didn't say, and it was useless for me to jump up and down in a hurry.

After eating, Master sat on the main seat, asked my parents to sit down, and then said, "I'm leaving tomorrow, the sample of the cave has been sampled, and when Xiaokang goes to junior high school, I will come back to pick her up, and when he was two years old, I said that his parents are thin, and I will take him to Beijing to go to school." After speaking, the master took a sip of tea and looked at my parents quietly.

I was just about to speak, when I saw my mother as if she was paralyzed, leaning into my father's arms, and tears began to fall.

"What are you crying about, Xiaokang would have died a long time ago without his master, and it all depends on his master to have today, and he also said it when he was apprenticing. We can't be ungrateful! Besides, Xiaokang follows his master, what are you worried about. My dad patted my mom on the back and said.

"Yes." My mom answered, stopped talking, and kept crying.

Master opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to persuade my parents, so he pulled me into the bedroom and asked me to sit down.

"I left this time, and I really can't come back. Don't waste the sixteen gold ingots, and don't forget to copy the Tao Te Ching. Master touched my head and said reluctantly. Then he took out a picture album, "There are eight pieces of brocade, twelve pieces of brocade, and sixteen pieces of brocade, all of which are similar, pick one you like, and you must exercise twice a day." ”

"Master, we are Taoist priests, and we are not practicing martial arts, wouldn't it be good to have a few spells? What's the use of all this? "I don't understand why it's so hard to solve a thing that can be solved with one rune.

"Let you practice, where is so much nonsense!" A brain crash rang in my head again. "Practice, practice, don't say no, you beat me stupid to see who is your apprentice." I pouted and said this, of course, I was rewarded with a brain breakdown.

Master sat with me for a while, but finally left, without looking back.

My family's life has returned to peace, life in the village has always been so monotonous, time passed in this way, in the firewood, rice, oil and salt, every morning to practice sixteen ingots of gold, in the afternoon to go home to write homework twice and play eight pieces of brocade. Nothing happened at any time, and I sometimes suspected that the lewd old man had lied to me.

It's been five years in the blink of an eye. Everyone knew what it meant for my master to come back this time, and everyone had dinner together, and the atmosphere was terrifyingly silent.

After lunch, I didn't have the courage to raise my head to face my mother's swollen eyes, which were already crying after a meal, and I didn't dare to look at my father's red eyes, just because my master said, "If I have time, I will let Xiaokang come back to visit my relatives, but I can't tell you where we are." The road to Emperor Star is destined to be lonely, and he wants to reunite, so let's talk about it when he is in his twenties. ”

I understand, in fact, I understand, with the understanding of the Tao Te Ching, I have also slowly read the Book of Changes, this time the difference is not that my master is ruthless, but that I am the emperor star, destined, if I covet the gentle country, I can only be involved in the cause and effect of my parents when I experience a catastrophe, and when I really harm them, I myself can't save the tragedy anyway.

And my family understands this truth and respects my master, so they are just reluctant to let me go, and they don't stop me. It's just that this reluctance is an emotion that can't be suppressed no matter what. In fact, last month, I counted this day, and I expected this day, but I still have to face it myself.

Although at this moment, I am reluctant and sad to face my parents, but I still endure it and make a very calm appearance, I want to open my mouth to comfort and say something, but my mouth trembles and I can't open it, I am afraid that as soon as I open my mouth, tears will fall.

After about five minutes, my mother came into the house in a trembling rage and pulled out five stacks of money.

A handful was stuffed into my master's arms, and he said: "Master Xiaokang, he has been with you for so many years, we know that the consumption in Beijing is high, and this is his tuition fee of 50,000 yuan, which is not enough for us to make up again." For the rest, let him eat something good, buy more clothes, and don't catch a cold. "My mother spoke to my master, but it was all me in her eyes, and I just looked up, and quickly lowered my head, trying not to let tears flow out of my eyes.

My master didn't speak, he handed it back to my mother: "it, I only need 30,000, I'm already embarrassed about this 30,000, I won't explain more, after all, there are some expenses for food and clothing, and there is a well-off study in Beijing..."

In fact, Uncle Shi told me privately that Master is not rich, and often helps some children, and his life is very simple, and it is estimated that going to school in Beijing is indeed a bit expensive, otherwise according to my Master's temperament, he will definitely not ask for this money.

As for my mother, she must give the remaining 20,000 yuan to my master, and after my master pushed it a few times, he really had no choice, and yelled loudly: "Money, won't I make it?" He's like my son, what are you worried about. If you give it to me again, I'll be angry. ”

My mother was very afraid that my master would be angry, so she had to look at my father and take back the money tremblingly.

It was a long time before I learned that the 50,000 yuan was almost all the savings of my parents, and I had saved up for several years, including some borrowed from neighbors and relatives.

Master went out after lunch, and he asked me to stay at home for a week and pick me up after a week. I understood that he wanted me to spend time with my parents again.

That week, I endured my sadness, tried my best to pretend to be happy, told my parents some interesting stories, and intermittently told them about Lu Mincai, they loved to listen to it, but I didn't say the ending.

Seeing them listening to me very carefully made me feel more pain in my heart, you know? How much my son wants to be by your side, even if he comes back from school every day, he is naughty and doesn't do his homework and is trained, but I feel happy.

In the last week, I tried to use all the dishes my mom cooked on as a mirror, and she loved to see me gobble up, and I knew she was content with that.

In the last week, I played chess with my dad, and even though I was terrible, he was very patient with me, because my dad really liked chess.

In the last week, I accompanied Xiaoqi to sit in a small tank with urine and mud, accompanied Han Yaoshenglong to play with glass balls, and everyone lit a fire in the sand behind the health station to roast snails and was chased by the doctor. I enjoyed it because the hair was so small that it would take a long time to see it.

For the last week, I washed my parents' feet every night......

For the last week, my mom checked my luggage every day......

I can't express in words how much I love them, I feel numb, I can only do more, do more, I suddenly know the sentence in the textbook: "The son wants to raise but the kiss does not wait!" ”

In the last week, I almost lost sleep, I couldn't tell how sad I was, when I would be reprimanded by my mother when I was naughty, when I would be able to play a game of chess with my father, when would I be able to eat the family food again......

The more you think about the slow time, the faster and faster it passes, a week has passed, I am gone, I don't know how long it will take to come back, my mother should think that I can't sleep every day, because I can't leak my master's address, I can't exchange phone calls and letters, I don't know how to be a parent, I don't even know what the situation is when my son is outside, what kind of sadness it is.

My mom smiled and stuffed my luggage into me, knowing it had clothes for the four seasons and a pack of my favorite fried meat.

My dad stuffed 500 to me again, saying that I would go to Beijing to see other children buy toys, and buy them myself, don't be in a daze with toys, I smiled at my dad, I'm so old, I'm familiar with ancient texts, where will I be stupid to look at toys in a daze now? I don't know why, droplets of water wet my face.

My father asked my master to go first, and then he wanted to ride a motorcycle to take me to the station, and his eyes were red and he said to me, "Come on, son, get in the car, your father and I will be old in the future, just wait for you to drive me away." ”

I gritted my teeth so hard that I forced a smile and pretended to be happy to jump on the back seat of my dad's motorcycle.

I don't cry, I can't cry, Yu Xiaokang, you hold back for me!

Mom and Dad, when I see you again, will you be old?

The summer breeze caressed my father's hair, and I could clearly see a few gray hairs, and I finally couldn't hold back my tears.

"Well-off."

"Hmm." I wiped away my tears and replied calmly.

"Do you know why men age faster than women?"

"I don't know."

"Because even if the man bleeds, he will not shed tears, if you have the mood to cry, it is better to think about how to break out in Beijing in the future."

"Yes."

"Actually......"

"What's wrong with Dad?"

"I want to cry too......"
