Zhang Shaofei went all the way north, and within a day, he returned to Taizhen Village, Qiu County. The mountains are still winding, and the village is still safe. The sunset in winter is both gorgeous and short-lived. The dusk in the mountains is even shorter...... Gradually, the watery night submerged the houses and trees, flattened the whole village, and at last, it was completely still, like a peaceful lake without wind or waves.

On the inky black sky, the clouds cover the moon, and the stars are dim.

There was no wind in the land of Taizhen, and the surroundings were quiet, and occasionally a few frogs chirped, breaking the silence of the night in the mountain village.

A vigorous figure, after coming down from Taishan, the cat lowered its waist, the rat jumped and leaped, and dissolved into the deep darkness like a fly, and it didn't take long for it to enter Taizhen Village. This mysterious night walker is Zhang Shaofei.

Zhang Shaofei escaped from the sea of fire, left Huixing Temple, and finally returned to his hometown in Taizhen.

The old love and old scenery of Taishan are presented in front of him again, everything here is so familiar!

Zhang Shaofei knew that after he escaped from the fire, the two killers would never give up and would definitely come to chase and kill, so he hid in the dense forest of Taishan until the third watch, and then quietly entered the village from the back mountain.

The closer he got to his door, the more Zhang Shaofei's heart was beating "pounding, pounding". He had been away from home for months, and he was afraid that when he knocked on the door at night, there would be no response inside. After all, my mother was already old and weak at the time of separation! So, when he knocked on the door, his raised hand trembled a little.

"Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha!" Shortly after the three knocks, a faint echo came from inside: "Who?" ”

Zhang Shaofei heard that this was the familiar voice of his mother, and the big stone in his heart finally let go, put his mouth against the crack of the door, lowered his voice, and replied: "A-Niang, it's me." ”

Wang Shaoxiang was awakened by a knock on the door in a daze, and her son's voice was the most familiar to his mother. Her heart twitched violently, and she hurriedly got up from the bed, rubbed her worried eyes, not knowing whether it was a dream or a dream, and then asked at the door, "Who?" ”

The answer outside the door was still so soft, but it was so familiar: "Mother, it's me." ”

Mother and son are in love!

"Ah, Fei'er!" When Wang Shaoxiang heard this, he was overjoyed and wanted to get out of bed, but a few days ago, when he went up the mountain to cut firewood and grass, he accidentally broke his left ankle, and it was inconvenient to move. Now in the middle of the night, I suddenly heard the voice of my son who worries about her stomach every day, Wang Shaoxiang was desperate, picked up the crutches resting on the bedside, got off the ground, supported her sick body, trembled to the front of the door, opened the upper and lower door latches, and pulled the two doors in.

The door opened, and against the backdrop of the dark sky, it was his son Zhang Shaofei who was thinking about it day and night.

"Ah, Fei'er, you're finally back!" Before Wang Shaoxiang could light the oil lamp, he threw away the crutches in his hand, rushed forward, hugged Zhang Shaofei tightly in his arms, and said to himself: "I'm not dreaming, right?" ”

Zhang Shaofei said sincerely: "Mother, we are not dreaming, I am indeed back." In the past six months, I miss you very much! ”

Looking forward to it day and night, tonight I finally saw my son's side, Wang Shaoxiang caressed Zhang Shaofei's head with trembling hands, and muttered to himself: "That's it, it's good......" The two lines of tears of joy and sorrow flowed down to Zhang Shaofei's shoulders and wet his clothes.

Zhang Shaofei clearly felt: With the twitching of his mother's thin body, with a wave of heat, Bi Yi This is a rare reunion after the catastrophe in his life!

After the mother and son hugged for a while, Zhang Shaofei helped Wang Shaoxiang to the familiar big bamboo chair in the corner of the hall and sat her down, and then lit the oil lamp on the table.

Staying in the dense forest of Taishan to hide in Tibet, nervous for most of the day, not drinking a drop of water, back to the long-lost home, Zhang Shaofei felt that his throat was as thirsty as fire, so he went to the big water tank in the kitchen to pick up the wooden shell, scooped up most of the shell of water, raised his head, "grunt, grunt" and drank, and then returned to the hall.

Under the swaying light, Zhang Shaofei looked at his mother and saw that she was much thinner than when she parted: her cheeks were sunken, but her stork bones were bulging. The wrinkles on his face were now more and deeper, his face was gray and yellow, and there were many more gray hairs hanging down from his forehead than he had been a few years ago. Facing his mother's aging and weak appearance, Zhang Shaofei couldn't help but feel a burst of sour water in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "Mother, you have become more." ”。

Wang Shaoxiang rubbed the pair of muddy dusk eyes, widened again, looked Zhang Shaofei up and down, and muttered: "Fei'er, you are also thin and dark." ”

Since Zhang Shaofei was demoted to Lingnan, leaving his mother and leaving his hometown Taizhen Village, in just half a year, his life has experienced many ups and downs, ups and downs, and now he is still in danger of being chased and killed, exhausted, exhausted, naturally thin and dark.

Seeing his mother's sad look, Zhang Shaofei forcibly squeezed out a smile and comforted Wang Shaoxiang: "Mother, don't worry, the dark clouds will eventually disperse, and everything will naturally get better in the future." Over the years since I left my hometown, I have seen the world more and matured more, and I feel more meaningful to be a person and do things. ”

Occasionally, there were a few cries of night owls outside, Wang Shaoxiang suddenly thought of something, the muscles on his face trembled a few times, and asked worriedly: "Fei'er, those warriors from Chang'an recently, all of them are holding swords in their hands, and they are fierce. They live in the polder, and some of them stay at the entrance of the village, and they often come to their homes during the day to search for me, asking me about your whereabouts. You didn't run into them when you entered the village, did you? ”

Zhang Shaofei knew that those warriors from the imperial court had already laid a net, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he contemptuously: "They laid a pocket and wanted me to get in, but you have a good plan, I have a wall ladder." Didn't I come back from under their noses tonight?! ”

Wang Shaoxiang was still relieved: "When you come back here, you have to be extra careful." You must know that you will encounter danger anytime and anywhere! ”

Zhang Shaofei comforted: "Mother, you can rest assured, I have expected this for a long time." When the sun set today, I had returned to Taishan from other places, and I had been hiding in the dense forest in the mountains, waiting until the third watch came down the mountain, and then quietly came in from the banana forest behind the village. ”

"That's it." Wang Shaoxiang breathed a sigh of relief, pointed to the pair of chopsticks on the dining table, and said emotionally, "Fei'er, after you left, every day when you eat, I put the bowl you eat on weekdays here, and then put the pair of chopsticks you usually use." That way, I feel like you're right next to me every time I eat. It's like this every day! ”

"Ahh What is the true love in the world that is deeper and greater than maternal love? A craze rose in Zhang Shaofei's heart and surged all over his body, he felt his throat itch, and his voice was a little choked, "Mother, these days in Lingnan, why don't I miss your old man day and night?" I often feel uneasy and regretful that I can't do my filial piety in front of you. Mother, do you blame me? ”

"No, no, how can I blame you." Wang Shaoxiang gently stroked Zhang Shaofei's head and said, "Fei'er, since you left home, I have gradually figured it out. If you stay at home and honor me alone, this is just a small filial piety. However, if you can learn Buddhism in Xinzhou, the hometown of the six ancestors of the Buddha, by being relegated to Lingnan, and let the Buddha's light shine on the parents of the world, this is the great filial piety! ”

Zhang Shaofei was very moved after hearing this: "It's rare for you to understand the righteousness so well. With your words, children can rest assured when they go out in this life. ”

Wang Shaoxiang praised, "Fei'er, you are really my good son!" ”

Zhang Shaofei suddenly thought of something and said, "Mother, there are good things for you to eat." ”

Wang Shaoxiang looked at his son a little uncertainly: "Fei'er, what good things will you have?" ”

Zhang Shaofei untied the black bag on his body, put it on the table, and slowly opened it, in addition to a few simple clothes, there were more than a dozen golden oranges.

As soon as Wang Shaoxiang saw those oranges, his stomach reflexively flushed with acid, shook his head, and said angrily: "Cough, I thought it was some precious thing, but it turned out to be some oranges, sour and astringent." ”
