Chapter 29: Album (2)

Speaking of the wooden sword carving I have always carried, I don't know the origin of this thing. www.biquge.info I only know that this thing has been hanging around my neck since I had a memory, and when I was young, I was a little in the way of this thing because I hated it, so I secretly took it off several times. But after being discovered by my grandfather, I don't know why I was inevitably scolded, and then obediently took it.

I just remember the most impressive time, because my grandfather was very strict with my tutoring. So in addition to going to school, my grandfather also locked myself in the house when he went to work, saying that it was for my safety and forbade me to go out. At that time, because I was still young, I also gathered a lot of playful friends around me. That time, my grandfather went out to work and locked me in the house as usual, but that time I made an appointment with my friend to go to the nearest village to play in the water. So I didn't care about it so much, sneaked into my grandfather's room, found the spare key he usually hidden, and slipped out.

After arriving at the pool, because the wooden sword carving I wore around my neck was really a little too troublesome, so I took it down and put it in the grass next to it, but because I was really excited to play, I forgot about it when I came back, and then my grandfather knew about it, and braved the danger of heavy rain at night, and took me to the pool to find the wooden sword carving, and when I went home, it was obvious that I was taught a hard lesson by my grandfather again, and since then, I have taken this thing as my talisman, No matter what happened, I always carried it with me, until now.

And the carved wooden frame worn by the little boy in this photo in my hand, if you look closely, whether it is the shape, size, or carving. It was exactly the same thing I was carrying. And this photo album still appears on the bookshelf of my house, that is, I can basically determine one thing, the boy in this photo is me! And the people who wrote those words must have been my parents.

Thinking about this, I suddenly felt that my surroundings had become a little strange, and the whereabouts of my parents had always been an unsolved mystery to me, and even their lives and names were unknown to me. As I said earlier, whenever I asked about this topic, whether it was my grandfather or the relatives around me, they all turned pale when they heard this question, and then they casually dragged a topic to replace this matter. So although I haven't asked for a long time, in my heart, I still want to know everything they desperately don't want me to know.

I controlled my heartbeat, and my instincts told me that there was much more to this album than that, and that there was a good chance that the rest of the album was closely related to my parents. My hands seemed to tremble a little, and it was true that with a photo album in front of me that could tell me about my parents, no one would be at peace with me.

I flipped to the third page of the album, and like the previous two pages, there was a photograph and a rather short summary attached to it. The photo looked even more shabby than the previous two photos, like a family portrait, and I was standing in the middle of the two of them, held by the man on the right. But the strange thing is that the photo seems to have been torn by someone else, except for my face, the faces of the other two people are cut off, and in that photo, except for me, their bodies are torn with sharp objects, and they are in tatters.

"How so?"

I managed to find a particularly valuable photograph, but now I can't tell what they look like, which also makes my newly burning hope shattered again.

"Is it Grandpa?" I looked at the two scratched figures in the photo, and blurted out in disbelief. This album appeared in my home, except for me, only my grandfather should know, but the relationship between my grandfather and my parents should not be too bad, I really can't think of any reason for grandpa to do such a thing.

I shook my head vigorously, ready to shake off the bad thoughts. And just as I was about to open the next photo, my peripheral vision suddenly saw the line of kid at the bottom of the album: Today is the first time our family has taken a family photo, which is great, and I can finally leave no regrets for myself.

And above that line of boys, I vaguely saw a fact that I couldn't believe, even if the two figures in that photo had been drawn out and could not be distinguished, but below those two people, there were no feet!

"How so!" Because of the horror in my heart, I subconsciously overturned the photo album in my hand to the ground, and then sat on the chair panting, as if my body had stiffened. I didn't dare pick up the album, I couldn't believe it. But the reality tells me that I was not mistaken, because at the bottom of the photo, there are my legs, and in comparison, I found that the two people next to me were empty!

"No, no legs?" In the huge living room, it was very quiet, and it seemed that I could only hear the heavy gasps of fear that welled up in my heart, although it was already daytime, but the yellow charms hanging in the living room and the strange photo in front of me still caused a lot of panic in my heart.

I don't know how long it was, but I sat stiffly in my chair, motionless. My eyes just looked at the album, as if it would make my heart feel a little better. If the two people in the photo were really my parents, and the blood was thicker than water, even if they had a big reason, they wouldn't have poisoned me.

"Boom! Boom! ”

Two crisp voices sounded in my ears without warning, and I quickly pulled me back to reality outside the situation, and I looked at the source of the sound in horror, which was a grandfather's favorite wall clock, because it was relatively old, so the sound sounded like it was used in the previous Republic of China. Republic of China, Republic of China!

I suddenly woke up as if I remembered something, and then I thought in a trance that those photos just now were not in color, but in black and white!
