Zhang Yan took the mobile phone, walked out of the bookstore quickly, and just walked to the door, the mobile phone had stopped vibrating, and it may have been broken after a long time. Outside the bookstore is the pedestrian street of Wangfujing, and there are many people on the road, whether on weekends or weekdays, there are always many people strolling on this street. There are so many people who go to work every day, and there are many people who don't go to work, and everyone walks different paths and does different things. Many people are so step-by-step, in this world full of rules, in order to earn money, for a more decent life. Buying a house, buying a car, marrying a wife and having children, giving your children a better starting point, and living a life in peace and stability like this, this is life.

It has been said, "To live is to be born and to live." ”

There is some truth in this, after all, most of us are destined to be ordinary in this life, ordinary life, ordinary death, under the wheel of history, leaving no trace, as if we never came. He was about to put the phone back in his pocket, but the phone rang, and when he opened it, he saw that it was the number from before, and he looked very anxious. Answered the phone, put the phone to his ear and said:

"Hey, hello!"

"Hello! You're Zhang Yan, right? ”

"Yes, who are you?"

"My name is Zhang Ju, a king on the left, and a resident Ju on the right."

"Oh, we don't know each other, do we? Do you have anything to do with me? ”

"Well, I really don't know, but I know you, count it up, we are the same generation, I am your cousin, I want to ask you to do me a favor, I don't know if you are willing?"

"Cousin? There are only three of my parents and me at home, how can I have a cousin? Funny, where did you come from, don't recognize your relatives, and let me help, you have to find the wrong one! ”

"Brother, don't get excited, listen to me, I'm really your cousin, two months ago, you received a package with a bronze box inside, right?"

"I did receive a package, did you send it?"

"That's right, it's what I sent you, that bronze box can't be opened by ordinary people, I don't have a key, I can't open it, if you use force, you can naturally open it, if that's the case, the mechanism inside will destroy things. I've been busy with other things before, I didn't call you, I finally have time today, I hope you don't mind, you don't need to force open that box, right? ”

"It turned out to be you, is this to the end, I've just been checking what age it is recently, and you also have a big heart, and you're not afraid that I will throw it away or hand it over to the Cultural Relics Bureau?"

"Our Zhang family is not stupid, it won't be like this, I quite believe in you, I didn't expect you to know nothing about your father's past, and I thought he would tell you, but now it seems that there is no word."

"What happened to my dad?"

"Yes, if you had said anything about him, you would have known about my existence."

"My dad said that he used to be a farmer, his home was in the mountains, the transportation was not convenient, he had to rely on his feet to go everywhere, the mountains were high, and he had to go over the mountains and mountains when he went out. At that time, the family was very poor, and later his parents fell ill and had no money to treat them, so they passed away one after another. After taking care of the aftermath, a person left home to Guiyang to do a memorization, helping others carry things every day, a few years passed, saved 10,000 yuan or 20,000 yuan, and opened a restaurant. The restaurant slowly improved, made some money, and then met my mother, bought a house and settled in Guiyang, and never returned to his hometown. I have lived in Guiyang for more than 20 years and have never been to my hometown, he told me. ”

"These are all made up for you, I guess I don't want you to know about his past! Your dad's name is Zhang Xin, and he has a middle in the middle of his clothes, right? ”

"Yes, you even know my dad's name, who are you? Why didn't my dad want me to know? What unseemly things have you done? ”

"Brother, of course I know, because we are from the same family, you see your name and my name, both are next to the word king, we are all from the king generation, and the previous generation is the Yizi generation. My dad's name is Zhang Gon, and he is your dad's biological brother. Something happened in the family back then, when your father was young and vigorous, and he disagreed with some people in the family and quarreled. One night the patriarch came to him, and they talked for a long time, and the next day he left, and this trip was more than twenty years. I only found his whereabouts in recent years, but I didn't expect him to run away to Guizhou, but I really didn't expect it, and then I found out that he had married a wife and had children. At that time, you were not in Guiyang, you had already gone to college, I stayed in Guiyang for more than half a year, and when you came back from winter vacation, you were sure that you were his son. ”

"Listen to your voice, you're not much older than me, how do you know these things? And you're talking in generalities, you're lying to me, right? ”

"I don't have to lie to you, I just listened to my dad about these things, my dad said that he had a younger brother named Zhang Zhen, who quarreled with the people in the family because of some things in the clan, and had a big fight, and then I didn't know what the patriarch told him, so he ran away. My dad has been looking for him all these years, and then something big happened in the clan, and he couldn't get out of it himself, so he asked me to continue looking. ”

"You say my dad lied to me, how do you prove that your dad didn't lie to you? There are so many people surnamed Zhang in the world, maybe you are looking for the wrong one? And what did the patriarch say to my father? ”

"If you don't believe me, ask your dad yourself. It is precisely because there are too many people with the surname Zhang that I have been looking for so long. No one knows about this, and it is estimated that only he and the patriarch know. I heard that it was just the two of them that night, and it took a long time to talk about your dad before he came out. ”

"Okay, just believe what you said, after so much, you're not just looking for my dad, right?"

"You are so smart, you do have other things, I called you today, one is to let you have a message with your father: My father has been looking for him, the family has changed dramatically, and I hope he can come back. The second is the matter of this box, I want to tell you not to open this box by force, and don't check its clues again, you will know in the future. The reason why I sent it to you is because after several years of observation, I found that you don't have any friends, you are basically yourself, the box will be very safe to put in your place, please take care of this box, it is very important. ”

"It's okay to talk, I have a question, why don't you go to my dad yourself? And that broken box, why should I take care of it for you? I don't know you well, if there are drugs in that box, won't I be killed by you? ”

"Brother, this box is related to the survival of the family, you are also a member of the family, although you have been away for a long time, but you have always left the blood of the Zhang family, and now the family has reached the point of life and death, and there is not much time left for us. Believe me, there are no drugs in it, it's a very important thing, please. As for the question of seeing your father, it is inconvenient for me to come forward now, so I can only ask you for help. ”

"Okay, then I'll do my best, no one knows that this box is with me except you, I don't want to be assassinated by someone else without knowing it. And if he was really killed, it is estimated that no one will know about it for several weeks, and it feels terrible to think about it! ”

"Don't worry, no one knows, and I'll keep you safe, trust me. Brother, have you had time lately? Can you come to Xi'an? ”

"I wish I was safe, I'm just an ordinary programmer. Coming to Xi'an? I have a new project recently, I don't have time, not to mention that Beijing is quite far away from Xi'an, I can only wait for the next holiday, the next holiday, can only be May Day, there is more than a month, I don't dare to come, in case I am kidnapped by you, what if I am threatened by my parents? ”

"Brother, if you put ten thousand hearts, you will never harm you, we are a family. I hope you can come and talk about something, something very important, you can go and ask your dad to give me an answer first, you just have to tell him my name, he will understand. I heard my dad say that when he left, I was only two years old, and my name was still taken by him, I hope you can come to Xi'an on May Day, please. ”

"Well, I'll tell him in the evening that if you lie to me, I'll destroy the box."

"Brother, don't worry, I will never lie to you, I will wait for you in Xi'an."

After Zhang Ju finished speaking, he hung up the phone, and for a while, Zhang Yan's mind was a mess, why did there be a big family coming out? There's an extra cousin, and you're going to let me go to Xi'an, what the hell is this? It seems that I have to ask my father at night, as for Xi'an, I can refuse not to go, he can't do anything with me, this ghost pattern doesn't need to be checked, listen to Zhang Ju's meaning, if it is not to lie to me, you will know in the future, you don't need to look for a needle in a haystack for it, waste your time, today's plan was disrupted, I originally wanted to come to the bookstore to check the information, a person is originally suitable for a place like a bookstore, and the outside world is dominated by couples.

Zhang Yan thought about it and felt a little hungry, so he went to KFC next to him, ordered a set meal casually, and ate slowly, playing the little game on his mobile phone while eating. After eating, I walked into the subway station, took the subway back to Xibeiwang, and went to work again tomorrow, and the weekend ended like this.

Zhang Yan returned home, it was already dusk, sitting on the sofa, and remembering what Zhang Ju said on the phone today, no matter how you look at it, it seems to be true, he doesn't need to lie to himself, he is just an ordinary person working in Beijing, an ordinary programmer, or wait until the evening to ask his father, and he will know the specific situation. In order to divert his attention, he then turned on the TV, familiar music, looked at his watch, and before he knew it, it was already 7:00, and the news broadcast was about to start again.

After watching the news for a while, I felt bored, it was the same routine every day, nothing new, turned off the TV, walked to the computer, turned on the computer, turned on the cool dog, listened to the song casually, put the mouse on the icon of World of Warcraft, and moved away. Forget it, don't do it, I haven't played the game for two years, what should I do? Let's go see what new games are available on 17173, play games and make yourself relaxed, he thought to himself.

He opened the browser, entered 17173, and looked at several hot games, one of which attracted him, and clicked with the mouse to enter, this style of painting is completely different from World of Warcraft, but the gameplay is very similar. I read the special page.,Said it's going to be a light work.,It feels pretty good.,Go to the official website to download the game.,I didn't want to play this game very big.,10G or so.,Thunderbolt prompts to download for about 4 hours.。

Waiting for boredom, I registered an account and looked at the career introduction and story background on the official website. After a series of preparations, it is still not finished, and the network speed is too poor, so there is no way. It's not an option to stare at the download progress bar like this, let's do something else, well, let's go take a shower first, he thought to himself. Then I went to take a shower, took a shower and changed into pajamas, and glanced at the progress bar, about 20%, which is really slow. Waiting is an amazing thing, and when you focus on waiting, you will find that time passes very slowly, like the earth has stopped turning.

Time is slowly passing, and in a blink of an eye, it's almost 9:00, and my parents are walking back. Zhang Zhen has always had this habit, and every day after 8:00 will go to the community park for a walk, and over time, Zhang Yan and his mother have also developed this habit. Zhang Yan took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhang Xin's number, and the name displayed on the mobile phone was Zhang Xin's name. Someone used to say to Zhang Yan: "Storing your father's name directly like this is a bit disrespectful to your father!" Zhang Yan smiled and said: This can prevent scammers, if the phone is lost and is picked up by others, scammers can't deceive my parents! ”
