Chapter 2: Father's Last Words

The mountains are thick and mist, and the peaks loom like a giant beast crawling.

One of the mountains has a rugged trail on its side, with towering cliffs on one side and bottomless valley streams on the other.

On this path, there is a young man, who looks about twenty years old, about 1.75 meters tall, with beautiful eyebrows, the pair of eyes on the bridge of his slightly straight nose are the most distinctive, black as ink, and the original brown iris also reveals a faint black, and his deep eyes exude a burst of wisdom that is almost substantial.

At this time, the young man was looking sad and hurrying away.

He seemed to be very familiar with the area, and the winding mountain road did not affect him much, and in a short time he passed the mountain.

Turning over the mountain, you can see that there is a village in the col not far away, in the village directly in front of a hundred meters away, there is a waterfall with a drop of four or five meters high, the water rushes out of the cliff mouth, smashes into the mountain stream and makes a roar like a dragon's groan, and the majestic momentum can be felt several miles away.

The boy had already gone down the mountain by this time, and when he had gone up to the flat ground, he was even more windy under his feet, and when he looked up at the waterfall, he suddenly got up and ran towards the village, as if he had encountered a hundred thousand urgent events.

"Shaoyi—"

Suddenly, a man dressed as a farmer ran out of the woods in front of him, waving his hand and shouting at the boy as he ran, his expression anxious, his face showing a hint of sadness, and his steps were a little flustered.

When the young man saw the visitor, he first had a happy face, and when he saw the sad look on the farmer's face, he felt a faint pain in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward, and when he ran to the farmer's side and asked, "Second uncle, isn't it?" ”

"Go back!" The farmer wiped his sweat and gasped and said, "Your dad is dying, he has something to tell you, he..."

Before the farmer could finish speaking, the young man's body trembled uncontrollably, his chest rose and fell violently, remembering that he had received the news that his father was seriously ill late last night, and he had been driving all night, but he was still in a hurry.

He took a sharp step and ran towards the path where the farmer came, shouting without looking back: "Second uncle~ I'll go back first~ You come quickly~" disappeared into the mountains and forests in the blink of an eye.

Not far from the mountain col, there is a piece of private houses built on the mountain scattered distributed, a stone-paved path is staggered, several roofs smoke curling, one of which is neatly tiled, in front of the clean house, bustling with people, crowded, whispering to each other, everyone's face is not very good.

"You said that this Wang family is going to change the sky." In the middle of this group of people, there were two people, tall and short, talking softly, and the tall man bowed his head and said.

"In these years, good people don't necessarily have good rewards, this Wang Tianlong usually helps everyone everywhere, but I didn't expect to be so young, hey~" The short man said with a depressed expression.

"This god will be asleep, I really hope it can open its eyes and let the master of the Wang family get better soon." The tall man continued.

"I'm afraid it's not much hope, I went to see it just now, and he's dying, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive today." The short man stood on tiptoe and looked into the house as he spoke.

Just as they were talking, a young man ran quickly to the front of the court, shouting "Seventh Uncle, let go", "Aunt Lin, let go" and entered the house.

"Shaoyi is back." When the tall man heard the voice, he turned his head and saw the young man running in, his expression was stunned, and his eyes showed secret admiration.

"Well, fortunately, the tiger father has no dogs, Shaoyi has been smart and clever since he was a child, and he is bold and careful in doing things, and the Wang family can be regarded as having a good explanation." When the short man mentioned the young man, he couldn't stop nodding his head in praise, admiring it from the bottom of his heart.

"Well, that's it, didn't he help the village break a big thing last year, those clues, adults can't see it, I didn't expect him to solve the matter at a young age." The tall man said in harmony.

It turned out that last year, a very strange thing happened in this Wushan village near the mountains and rivers, the aquatic couple who lived at the end of the village recruited dirty things at home, and in the middle of the night, the aquatic sister-in-law would cry wolf inexplicably, the sound was extremely miserable, and it could be heard by hitting the head of the village, and the practice of inviting a lot of Taoist priests did not improve.

Since that incident, the aquatic sister-in-law has rarely spoken, not only is she more and more haggard, but the dead air on her body is getting heavier and heavier.

For a while, the people in the village panicked, saying that the dirty things had already been on their bodies, and the people in the mountains were simple, so they didn't say that they wanted to abandon her, but they felt that the aquatic sister-in-law was pitiful, and the dirty things might have come out of the mountains, and the whole village was ready to move elsewhere to start a new village.

But at this moment, there was a young man who looked at Shui Sheng's sister-in-law with a suspicious expression, this person was naturally the Wang Shaoyi they said.

Strange to say, the night before the whole village was ready to move, the home of the aquatic couple suddenly had a rare quiet night.

The next day, when the whole village was carrying things and preparing to move, Wang Shaoyi suddenly stood at the head of the village and stopped everyone.

Wang Tianlong was also a little inexplicable when he saw that it was his son, although his son usually behaved much smarter than his peers, but it involved a major event in the whole village, and he didn't expect his son to come out and block the way.

Then Wang Shaoyi actually told a shocking truth in front of the whole village, it turned out that he had discovered the unusual reason for the aquatic sister-in-law.

Although since the "ghost upper body" incident, Shui Sheng's sister-in-law has always dodged when she sees people, Wang Shaoyi still carefully noticed that when she walked, she seemed to be walking with pressed steps, and that faint death was more like a desperate atmosphere.

Later, he deliberately asked Brother Shui out to drink and drunk him, that is, last night, the quiet night.

Only then did he tell his guess to the whole village, and he suspected that the so-called "ghost upper body" was nothing more than a lie that Shui Sheng forced Shui Sheng to tell, judging from the way Shui Sheng walked and the look on her face, it was more like the result of being abused by Shui Sheng.

As soon as these words came out, the crowd exploded with a "coax", and they began to talk about it one after another.

The aquatic sister-in-law cried "wow".

Shui Sheng also jumped out and told the matter, it turned out that he suspected Shui Sheng's sister-in-law of cheating with Li Daguang's bachelor at the head of the village, because Shui Sheng's sister-in-law had to secretly go to Li Daguang's house every day. Since then, he began to press Shui Sheng's sister-in-law, and finally used violence when he was really angry.

But no matter how Shui Sheng beat Shui Sheng's sister-in-law, she still secretly went to Li Daguang's house, and she didn't say why, and some people asked about it, and they also said that there were unclean things at home.

The aquatic sister-in-law who had been crying did not refute it, and it seemed that there was something unspeakable.

The crowd boiled again, shouting and scolding the aquatic sister-in-law: "No wonder you don't speak, it turns out that you did such a dirty thing as stealing a man!" ”

Wang Shaoyi saw that the crowd was a little angry, and hurriedly stood up and said his guess.

It turns out that he not only has a flexible brain, but also has a memory and observation that are not comparable to ordinary people. In the early years, when Wang Shaoyi was five or six years old, the aquatic sister-in-law almost drowned in the river bathing, and was rescued by Li Daguang'er.

After the ghost came out, Wang Shaoyi found that something was unusual, he checked the people in the village, only to notice Li Daguang'er, and went to investigate only to find that Li Daguang'er went up the mountain to collect medicine and broke his leg.

Aquatic sister-in-law secretly went to Li Daguang'er's house, and it was Aquatic Sister-in-law who was delivering him food.

And it is inevitable that there will be skin relatives in the water to save people, this kind of thing is to be poured into a pig cage in feudal thinking, and the aquatic sweep must be difficult to talk about, as for why not talk about it to the aquatic life, it must be because of his scruples.

After Wang Shaoyi finished speaking, Shui Sheng realized that he was wrong to blame Shui Sheng's sister-in-law, and hurriedly knelt in front of her and kowtowed to admit his mistake. As for Li Daguang, he rarely talks to others, but this time he didn't go out of the village, and the people in the village didn't notice it.

This is the big thing in the village that the two people standing in the courtyard are talking about.

"Shhhh The tall man spoke, and they stopped talking.

In a room on the east side of the house, a middle-aged man leaned against the head of the bed, his face was not bloody, his eyes were half-closed, and his mouth and nose were already out of breath and out of breath.

Around the bed, there was a circle of people, mostly women, who would be sobbing incessantly.

"Dad!"

Wang Shaoyi shouted as soon as he walked into the room, his eyes were red, his chest was heaving, and he couldn't stop trilling between words.

It was Wang Tianlong who was lying on the bed, he turned his head slightly when he heard the voice, opened his eyes hard, and barely squeezed out a smile and said, "You guys go out first, I'll be alone with Yi'er." ”

When he had finished saying this, the people at the bedside slowly withdrew from the room, and the last woman hesitated at the door.

"Mom, you should go out first, I'll come out later." Wang Shaoyi looked at the woman and said with a smile reluctantly.

The woman stopped talking, said "um", and left the room.

"Yi'er, ahem, come here, Dad, ahem, I have something to say to you." When the woman went out, Wang Tianlong suddenly coughed violently, and the front was obviously suppressed.

"Dad." Wang Shaoyi walked to the bed in a panic, looked at Wang Tianlong who looked haggard on the bed, and stretched out his hand to caress his chest.

After a while, Wang Tianlong's chest gradually calmed down, and he continued: "Yi'er, God has eyes, you still arrived after all." ”

Wang Shaoyi looked at Wang Tianlong's haggard face, the corners of his eyes were sour, tears flowed out of his eyes, and he said with a crying voice: "Dad... I..."

Wang Tianlong's body suddenly trembled, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to make Wang Shaoyi continued, panting and said: "Yi'er, Dad is about to die, I have some things I must tell you before leaving, cough cough, these things are very important to me, to you, to many people, cough cough, you must listen well, you know?" ”

Wang Shaoyi saw Wang Tianlong's solemn face, obviously what he was going to say was very important, so he hurriedly took two steps back and knelt on the ground.

Wang Tianlong glanced at the young man, then turned his head, his eyes looked at the wooden ceiling, his eyes were a little sloppy, as if he was recalling something.

Suddenly, his eyes let out a burst of light, and the whole person exuded vitality, and suddenly turned his head suddenly, and his tone of voice became very excited: "Yi'er, I know that you are smart when you are young, and you must think twice about everything in the future, and think twice before you act, do you know?" ”

Wang Shaoyi nodded again and again when he heard his father's words.

"And." Wang Tianlong's tone suddenly became a little hurried, "In the third drawer of my cabinet...... There's a book you must remember and... And your name."

Wang Tianlong's tone suddenly weakened, and he straightened up and wanted to say more, but his eyes had gradually dimmed, and his eyelids were slowly covered.

There was no sound in the room after a while.

Wang Shaoyi had been kneeling below with his head down, and suddenly heard no sound, looked up suddenly, and saw that Wang Tianlong had closed his eyes, his pupils shrank inward, and his eyes looked towards his chest, where he had stopped rising and falling.

"Dad!!"

A wail rang out, echoing throughout the room. The people outside the house were stunned by the scream, and they all looked up into the house, already realizing what was happening

After crying and mourning, setting up a funeral banquet, choosing a good day to go up the mountain, and being buried, after dealing with all the funerals, Wang Shaoyi opened the bedside table that his father said, opened the third drawer, and saw a yellowed book lying there.

He found a bench, put it on his lap, carefully opened it and looked at it, and when he looked at most of it, he found that it was full of stories about his father's life, which was relatively trivial, and made people gradually feel a little sleepy.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he saw a very special note. The pages were very wrinkled, as if they had been read many times, and he looked down the notes.
