Chapter Twenty-Nine: Zhang Yun
Xiaolian was thinking wildly in her head, and she didn't sleep all night. The next morning, she came to her mother's room with nervousness and fear, but her mother was not there, and when she went to the next kitchen, she saw that she was making breakfast, but at this time her mother was no longer the same as last night, and it was no different from usual.
Later, Xiaolian also came to see me a few times, but when I asked about it, she said that she might have hallucinated that night or it was just a dream. But now that I think about it, it wasn't an illusion, let alone a dream, and the old witch might have really become a monster. While speaking, Xuanqing Daoren's hand holding the dry tobacco was still trembling slightly.
So it should be certain that Xiaolian's mother and the old monster who raised worms are the same person. Thinking of this, I was worried about Xiaolian again, I absolutely didn't believe that Xiaolian was practicing some evil magic like her mother who became a monster, Xiaolian must have been confused by her mother or used some magic and evil magic. At this moment, I seem to be more anxious than his father, and I can't wait to find Xiaolian immediately.
"Has Xiaolian ever been back recently?" I asked.
"I haven't been back for more than half a year, alas!" After speaking, Xuanqing Daoist sighed again.
"Uncle Shi, don't worry, we saw Xiaolian yesterday, she didn't do anything, Ren is her biological mother after all, and she won't harm her." I comforted him, but I didn't know anything in my heart, and she couldn't do anything to look at that old monster!
Xuanqing Daoist sighed, coughing and smoking.
At this time, someone outside the door spoke, "Dad, the meal is ready, call the guests to eat!" ”
I turned my head and saw that it was Xiaoyun, and when I saw her, I thought of Xiaolian again, she looked too similar, her voice and facial expressions were the same, she was just a person.
"San'er, Qingming, the restaurant is next door, let's go, let's eat!" The Xuanqing Taoist said and waved at us.
Hu San and I got up and walked out of the door, just after going out, a ray of sunlight shone on my face, a burning pain hit my whole body, and I hurriedly covered my face with my hands.
"This way. This way. Xuanqing Daoist pointed to the door next to him, "Alas, Qingming, what's wrong, it's sunburned, come into the house, come into the house." ”
This so-called dining room is very small, less than 10 square meters, and in the middle of the room is a reddish-brown old-fashioned wooden table with dishes, chopsticks and cups, and a few folding chairs around the table.
"Sit, sit, sit!" Xuanqing Taoist greeted us warmly. As soon as he sat down, Xiaoyun came in with a dish, it was a plate of meat, and he couldn't tell what kind of meat it was from the outside, and it smelled very fragrant.
She put the dish on the table and glanced in my direction, maybe she saw that my face was a little strange, or maybe I was too sensitive, so she just looked at it casually.
Xuanqing Daoist took out a bottle of sprinkle from the cabinet next to him and poured three cups.
He knew I didn't even drink water, so he poured me a glass for some reason.
"This is free meat, I was caught by the sunspot yesterday, our hare meat is fragrant, come, eat, eat." Saying that, Xuanqing Daoist sandwiched a piece of meat between Hu San and me.
As soon as he finished clipping, he smiled at me again, "Qingming, I know you don't have to eat, but your bowl can't be empty, it doesn't look good." ”
Soon the dishes were all ready.
"Xiaoyun, you can eat too!" Xiao Yun, who was originally going to go out, was called back by the Xuanqing Daoist again.
"Dad, you guys eat first!" She spoke with her head slightly bowed, looking a little reserved.
"It's okay, you're not an outsider, you're familiar with it, come on." Xuanqing Daoist greeted Xiaoyun vigorously.
The ghost made the god worse, but there was an empty seat between me and the Xuanqing Daoist, and Xiaoyun happened to sit next to me. This makes me feel uncomfortable, it's not uncomfortable, it's just that when I see her, I always think of Xiaolian, and I can't say the kind of feeling.
Hu San had already looked at the meat in the bowl and swallowed it heavily, but for the sake of face, it was not good for him to eat first when he saw that no one moved his chopsticks, so he licked his lips vigorously.
During the banquet, Xuanqing Daoist did not tell Xiaoyun the reason why I didn't eat, but made up a nonsense, saying that I was sick and couldn't eat, and I could only take nutritional medicine for the past two days.
Although I don't know what nutritional medicine is, looking at Xiaoyun's expression, he should believe it.
Maybe because of the conversation before the meal, Xuanqing Dao people don't talk much, just occasionally greet us, eat, don't be polite.
Although Hu San is usually a chatter, he is also measured, and this is not the time for him to show his eloquence. Xiaoyun is the same as her sister, she doesn't like to talk, this is similar to me, it's not that I don't like to talk all the time, but I will become clumsy and clumsy when there are girls, so this meal is relatively quiet.
After dinner, we went back to the room just now, it was already dark at this time, and Xiaoyun was gone, Xuanqing Taoist said that she only went home because she had a holiday today, and she usually lived in the dormitory of the unit.
Xuanqing Daoist made us tea, and he didn't seem to drink much tea himself, just smoking dry cigarettes.
"I, this life is like this, I just hope that my two daughters can be safe and sound, and if I find a good family to marry, I will be satisfied in this life." Xuanqing Daoist smoked a cigarette and muttered to us, "When I was young, I also had a period of time when my wife and children were hot on the kang, and I don't lose anything in this life." Now I'm just worried about my eldest daughter, if she can come back safely, let me die! He sighed as he spoke.
It is indeed a little pitiful to look at this old man, judging from the previous conversation, he is only in his fifties this year, but at this time he looks the same as sixty or seventy. It is estimated that he looks so old because of his family, and he has too much to worry about.
I suddenly remembered my parents, alas! I sighed in my heart, pity the hearts of parents all over the world. I don't have to be sad to think of my parents when they see me die, although I haven't seen that kind of scene, but just imagine it, my heart is uncomfortable, and I want to live with uncontrollable tears. I blinked slightly, and a tear still fell from my eye. But the Xuanqing Daoist in front of him, and Hu San next to him didn't notice it.
My mind suddenly was in a trance again, and I had the feeling that I couldn't tell the difference between reality and dream, and I couldn't hear what the Xuanqing Dao people next to me and Hu San were talking about, this feeling was really bad.
At this time, I always felt that I was dreaming, everything was a dream, and when I woke up, I would definitely see my mother's kind and kind smiling face.
But I clearly know that this is not the case, it is all true, and I will never go back hundreds of years and never see my parents again.
