"After listening to the explanation, I remembered that Yi Qichong had said that he didn't know the situation in the cave, so he asked, 'Does Senior Brother know these things?'

"Master said, 'I never told him. ’

"I was puzzled and asked, 'Then why are you telling me this?'

"The Master said, 'Because you have a relationship with the person who will wield the Excalibur in the future. ’

"I exclaimed, 'The one who wields the Excalibur?'

Shi Zu stroked his beard and nodded.

"Then I asked, 'Who's that?'

"Shizu smiled and said, 'I don't know who it is, maybe I haven't been born yet. ’

I didn't ask any more questions.

"Seeing that I was silent, Shizu said, 'Go ahead and see how Yong'er's injury is. ’

"I said goodbye to my ancestor and walked out of the Shuoyue Cave.

Back in Xuanyuan Palace, Cunli's injury had been treated, holding gauze on his legs, and he was sitting in a daze under the eaves in front of the door.

"Seeing me coming, Cunli said: 'Buddha Dai, you see that since I went up the mountain to the present, I have been injured, and I haven't practiced martial arts well, and I still make you worry about me, I really feel very ashamed. ’

"I comforted him and said, 'It has been more than half a year since we escaped from home, and although we have encountered some ups and downs along the way, we are also fortunate to be able to go to this mountain and meet our ancestors and brothers, which is also a blessing for you and me. I can't blame you for today's incident, it's your nature to be reckless and brave in danger. The ancestor didn't blame you today, so you can recuperate from your injuries. As for me, I can't bear to be a brother like you here, and I can't bear to take care of you. ’

"Cunli said: 'This time, when I get better from my injury, I must get rid of my bad problems and practice my skills with my ancestors. You're going to have to keep an eye on me. ’

I nodded.

"I feel very relieved about Cunli's words today, and I feel that he is no longer the Cunli who hangs around in the village and causes trouble everywhere. This made me feel even more that I had chosen to escape this time.

"In addition to thinking about my mother and Yuhua, I think it is enough for me to live in this mountain and practice the Fa and practice with my ancestor every day. If I could, I'd rather stay like this for the rest of my life.

But everything in the world will not be completely in accordance with man's will.

"We lived in the mountains for about two years, and suddenly one day, I received a letter from my hometown.

"When I saw the letter, I felt my sky fall, my eyes went dark, and I fainted to the ground. ”

"What does the letter say?" I asked, seeing Daddy pause.

"My mother died. Daddy said, rubbing his eyes with his hand.

Under the light of the kerosene lamp and the charcoal fire, I noticed that his eyes were red.

"Then I'll go back first. It's not too early, so you should rest early. "I know that when it comes to his mother, Daddy's heart must be very heavy, and he wants him to be alone.

"With a flashlight. ”

"No, the moon is round today, it's not dark at all. I said that I had run five or six meters away.

"Don't forget what I told you, come up and go back to the mountain early tomorrow after school. Daddy shouted.

"Oh. ”

The next day, behind the flower bed on the side of the teaching building, the big fat man who loves to spread rumors attracted a group of people to whisper.

"Alas, my father's director of the investigation team was ripped off. ”

"Why?"

"It's because the last time he dreamed of an old lady, the next day he canceled the visit to the tomb that had not collapsed. Later, the county urged me several times, but my dad made excuses to shirk it.

"Yesterday Monday, the county leaders held a week-long county-wide work meeting, and the new director was announced on the spot.

"I heard my dad say that as soon as the new director took office, he said that he must dig that grave. It is estimated that there will be action this week.

"Tell me, will the new director also dream of that old lady?"

"You think it's your dad. I have a bad thing in my heart, and I have a nightmare. ”

"Why do you say that about my dad?"

"I didn't say your dad, I mean if anyone has a nightmare, it must be a bad thing. ”

"Who did something wrong? My dad probably wasn't dreaming that day. ”

"Oh, what the hell?"

"Didn't I say that last time,......"

"Let's go, don't listen to this rumor. A few rational classmates said.

The crowd dispersed, and then the class bell rang.

In class, I kept thinking about what the big fat man said just now.

Although I know that the big fat man is a rumor-monger, I believe that what he said today about the change of leaders of the investigation team is true.

If the new leader really said that he was going to dig a grave, then the grave of the sailor's grandmother would be in danger, and I think I have to let my father know about it.

As soon as the bell rang for the end of class, I ran out of the classroom with my schoolbag on my back.

As soon as I left the teacher's door, I crashed into the arms of the homeroom teacher.

The homeroom teacher was knocked and took two steps back to stabilize his body and not fall.

"Gao Xiaoyuan, you are so disagreeable, you are so flustered, what is the matter of burning your eyebrows?" the homeroom teacher yelled.

Immediately, she saw the bag I was carrying on my shoulder.

"What are you going to do? You want to skip class again? What's the matter with you for the past two days, skipping class for several days in a row. The homeroom teacher asked.

"Teacher, I have an urgent matter at home. I stood in the doorway with my head bowed and squeezed a few words out of my mouth.

"What's the urgency? ”

"I ......"

"Go back to the classroom! Call your parents to school tomorrow." The homeroom teacher left in a huff.

Seeing her enter the office, I thought that it was like this anyway, I would leave first, and then I would call my grandfather tomorrow.

I looked left and right, and no other teachers passed, so I sneaked to the gate against the school courtyard wall, and ran back to the village with a smoke.

When I arrived at the village, I didn't go home, I went directly to my father's old house.

I pushed open the half-hidden door, and there were still three blackened adobe houses.

I stood in the courtyard for three or four seconds, and then summoned up the courage to rush into the house.

The inside is clean, although the windows are not big, the room is not so dim, and there is a bit of warmth. It is a great contrast to the appearance.

I walked from the hall to the west and then to the east room, and I searched the whole house, but I didn't see my father.

"Xiao Yuan, why are you here?" At this time, I heard the voice of my father outside the door.

As soon as I stepped out of the hall door, I saw my father coming back with a vegetable basket.

"I just went to the vegetable garden outside to pick some vegetables, and I couldn't eat the vegetables grown in the garden, but today I went to see that many tomatoes, eggplants and green peppers fell to the ground and rotted, and the lettuce also grew ears, and the zucchini also grew old. So I just got everything I could pick and pick, I didn't expect such a coincidence, you came, and the two of us ate in this area at noon. Daddy said slowly as he picked the vegetables out of the basket.

"I have something important to tell you. After patiently listening to him, I said eagerly.

"What's important?" said Daddy, scooping water from the tank with an enamel basin.

"The county may be digging the grave of the sailor's grandmother. I said.

With a bang, the scoop of water in Daddy's hand fell into the enamel basin.

"I can't use the last way a second time. Daddy didn't pick up the scoop, but sat by the water tank and muttered to himself.

"What was the way last time?" I asked.

"I'll tell you about that later. Come up the hill with me. Daddy said and walked out the door.

I went out with him, too.
