Chapter 14 The Way Home and Directions
"Brother Jiang Hong, are you okay?" Shi Yahan helped Jiang Hong and asked softly, without waiting for Jiang Hong to answer, he looked at Wang Hao and continued: "A big man is hairy, don't you know that Brother Jiang Hong is injured, hum ......" After speaking, don't look at Jiang Hong with concern.
"If Brother Jiang Hong's injury worsens, I'll be over with you!" Seeing the uncomfortable look on Jiang Hong's face, Shi Yahan hummed again and counted at Wang Hao.
In fact, Jiang Hong's chest was not as painful as he showed, but when he saw the bold Wang Hao being counted down and looking at him resentfully like a wronged little daughter-in-law, he just wanted to laugh in his heart, but he was moved by Shi Yahan's caring appearance, and he couldn't help laughing out loud, and he couldn't hold it back to have this look.
Shi Taishu looked at Wang Hao apologetically, and Wang Hao smiled indifferently.
"Hanhan, Brother Hao didn't mean it, don't blame Brother Hao. Shi Taishu persuaded Shi Yahan, then looked at Jiang Hong and said, "Jiang Hong, are you okay, why don't we go to the medicine hall and take a look, don't leave anything wrong." ”
"Yes, yes, let's go and have a look first, and we'll go later. Wang Hao, who reacted at this time, also joined in the persuasion, and suddenly changed his grievances and said anxiously.
Jiang Hong looked at their concern for him, and his heart was full of emotion. The longing and discomfort of his hometown just now have also decreased a lot, and it is enough for someone to care about him here, and the place where there is love is home, not to mention that he doesn't know who his parents are, and he doesn't know where he comes from. It's just that the old man doesn't know how to live when he gets old for a few years, whether there will be someone to take care of him, and whether he will worry about being sad if he doesn't find himself. Is ex-girlfriend friend Ma Ruoqing starting her new life and finding someone she loves to marry and have children......
Jiang Hong's heart faded back to the thought, but it also deepened his worry about the old man, Ma Ruoqing's thoughts, and longed in his heart that all this was not as bad as he imagined. Looking at the eyes in front of him who cared about him, and the unfamiliar faces he had just met, Jiang Hong collected his sad emotions and forced out a smile that reassured them.
"It's okay, it's just that my hand touched it accidentally, it's completely fine, it's not painful now, let's go to Xilou quickly, I'm also a little hungry." ”
"Are you really okay?"
"Let's go and see, shall we?"
"Brother Jiang Hong, you better listen to them and take a look, right?"
......
Shi Yahan asked one after another, but Jiang Hong didn't even have a chance to answer. It wasn't until everyone looked at him uncertainly after asking questions that Jiang Hong said firmly: "Thank you! It's really okay, everyone is hungry, let's go eat!"
Leaving the others to look at him blankly, Jiang Hong walked for a while and felt that only Shi Yahan was following him, and the others did not follow, so he turned back suspiciously, only to see them looking at him strangely as he walked towards the street. Jiang Hong reacted at this time, maybe he was on the wrong path.
"Haha......"
"You're going to the medicine hall, are you sure you're okay?"
"Don't be reckless, if you want to go and see, just say it, don't be polite, they're all brothers?"
At this time, Jiang Hong would really be a fool if he didn't know about his own troubles, and when he saw them laughing and leaning back and teasing himself, he knew that he had made a big deal this time.
Shi Yahan looked at them smiling, pursed her lips, her eyes were watery, she was extremely aggrieved, and she looked pitiful.
Wang Hao and the others saw Shi Yahan's pitiful appearance, and they all stopped laughing, only the corner of Shi Taishu's mouth showed a faint smile. He knows Shi Yahan too well, and he will use this trick against them every time, no one can resist Shi Yahan's pretending to be pitiful, and every time he loses in the end, he is himself. He secretly thought in his heart that Wang Hao and they must be unlucky, thinking of Shi Yahan's tricks to trick himself, and now he felt trembling in his heart when he thought about it.
"Sister Yahan, it's okay, we're not laughing at you, we're just laughing and playing, we don't mean to laugh at you, I promise!" Wang Hao looked at Shi Yahan, who was about to cry, and explained in a babbling manner, and raised his hand to make an oath.
"You are a bad person, knowing that Brother Jiang Hong has not been to Wangfu City, and you don't lead the way, you deliberately make fun of it, hum...... I...... I ......" Shi Yahan's tone was a little threatening, but in the end, she didn't know what could threaten Wang Hao, and in the end, she was so aggrieved that tears almost rolled out of her big watery eyes.
Jiang Hong saw Shi Yahan defending himself like this, and his heart was even more moved. He knew that Wang Hao didn't mean anything else, maybe he just wanted to dilute his sadness, and he wouldn't be disgusted by such a way of joking, but felt a little kind.
"Yahan, don't blame them, it's your brother Jiang Hong who didn't recognize the way, and they were just joking, it's okay, let them lead the way this time, you're hungry, right?" Jiang Hong stroked Shi Yahan's hair and persuaded him with some emotion, and looked at Wang Hao and them after speaking.
"Yes, yes, we promise that there will never be a next time, let's go, we will lead the way. Wang Hao saw Jiang Hong's gaze, and just hurriedly assured that he had arrived, and after speaking, he led them to another street with a dodgy look.
At this time, they didn't know that a touch of cunning flashed in Shi Yahan's eyes, and they glanced at Jiang Hong with a smile, and pulled Jiang Hong to follow. Jiang Hong was not only moved but also a little helpless in his heart, Shi Yahan was like a child who had not grown up, sometimes making people cry and laugh.
Jiang Hong had no choice but to let her pull him, and followed Wang Hao and them to another street.
In about five minutes, they crossed a corner and saw a three-story wooden building on one side of the street, which looked like a skyscraper against the backdrop of all the other two-story houses.
In the center of the three-story building, which covers almost half of the street, hangs a huge plaque, which is about one story high and occupies two facades about ten meters long. In the center of the top of the plaque are written four scribbled words, Jiang Hong does not know calligraphy, but he feels comfortable when he looks at it, and naturally has a sense of intimacy.
Underneath the four words is a paragraph:
Sorrowful searching
The way home and directions
Traveled through thousands of rivers and mountains
Like a child left behind by the whole world
Wander for life
For the best of their lives
Except for exertion
Nothing gives me comfort in my leisure
Except for picking up the fragments of hope again and again
There is no call to hope
In addition to the old face
There is no memory engraved with time
Give it up
Some wandering child
The world is always accepting of you
Aged souls
Fallen remnants
The heart yearns for it
A place of happiness and joy
It's home
......
Jiang Hong looked at this passage blankly, and his heart was mixed. He is not the only outsider who has come to this world, at this time he has no sympathy for Wangxiang's sorrow, and he is full of longing for his hometown. The old man who always doesn't do anything right, often educates himself with common sense, and always teaches himself to do bad things, but he has never done bad things. When Jiang Hong was in college, he understood that it was the old man's way of educating him, which made him go on the right path with a strong rebellious mentality since he was a child.
and Ma Ruoqing, the girl who still occupies his entire heart after the breakup. After falling off the cliff, I probably thought I was dead, maybe I shed tears for myself, but not tears of love.
Qin Hao, a sworn friend, will also think so, after many years, he may remember that he has been in that world, except for the old man, Qin Hao may be counted as one?
Jiang Hong looked at it in a daze, and even Wang Hao and the others had already walked into the Xilou.
"Brother Jiang Hong, Brother Jiang Hong......" Shi Yahan looked at Jiang Hong in a daze, shook Jiang Hong's hand vigorously and shouted.
Jiang Hong came back to his senses and saw Shi Yahan who was anxiously shouting about himself, and Shi Yahan's shouting attracted the gaze, Wang Hao, Shi Taishu, Shi Xiang...... They were all concerned eyes, and Jiang Hong was fiercely touched in the depths of his heart.
Yes, how illusory the way and direction of going home is for Jiang Hong at this time, can the concern of knowing these people in front of him be ignored, maybe they in their hometown will one day fade the hurt of their departure, if they know their own situation, they must hope that they can live happily.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hong's heart suddenly relaxed, the sadness that had been haunting him in the past dissipated suddenly, the corners of his mouth curled and looked at the anxious Shi Yahan and said, "Let's go, let's go in, we will definitely slaughter them today." ”
After speaking, he pulled Shi Yahan, who was looking at him in a daze, and walked into the Xilou under Wang Hao's puzzled gaze.
Jiang Hong walked into the Xilou and saw a big word 'home' written on the wall of the empty hall, and two portraits were hung on both sides of the word "home": one showed a young and beautiful girl standing alone on a high mountain peak looking melancholy into the distance, looking a little haggard, but she couldn't hide her beautiful face;
Carefully comparing the two portraits, it was found that the outlines of the two portraits were similar, just a beautiful girl with peerless elegance, and an old grandmother who was about to die, Jiang Hong could guess that these two similar women were the owners who created this Xilou, and they were also the Wangxiang who came to the Longwei Continent and couldn't find his hometown.
The relieved Jiang Hong looked at the portrait of Wangxiang with a grateful face, he walked forward to stare at the portrait and bent down and bowed deeply, and then regardless of Wang Hao, their curious eyes looked at the empty hall, only an old man full of wrinkles was sitting at a table, and several flower pots were placed elsewhere, and the flower pots were full of bright and colorful flowers. It's just that for Jiang Hong, who has never paid attention to flowers, he can't even name a flower.
He walked into the table where the old man was sitting, and saw a few words written on the table:
The way home and directions!
