Fang Zhan looked through them one by one, some of them only had a short line of words on them, some were more, and the colors of the pen and ink were different, and this one recorded the bits and pieces that Fang Ping had taken him with him over the years.

Fang Zhan sometimes smiled when he saw it, and sometimes he immediately burst into tears.

Seeing that the paper was getting less and less, he was looking more and more slowly.

In Fang Ping's house in Zhuli Village, Xun Fuzi, Li Langzhong, Sanniang, and Shang Ji still didn't speak, they drank with their heads bored, and Fang Ping didn't do his best to be a landlord and ignored them. Just drinking with a stuffy head.

……

"The four of them seem to have given up on their plans to learn martial arts from Zhan'er, and I know that they can't resist Zhan'er.

Master Xun often takes some weird books, and I haven't even seen them. Zhan'er read it with relish.

However, Master Xun would mix some books about learning martial arts into the books, but they were all abandoned by Zhan'er, and Master Xun had no choice but to give up.

Why do they have to learn martial arts?

In the past three days, Zhan'er has had trouble with me countless times, and he has to ask me about you.

I couldn't tell him, I told him, what would happen to him, I didn't dare to think.

To find you, or to save you?

But where are you?

I know you can't have any hope of survival.

Over the years, I have tried the four of them countless times, wanting to know a little bit about you through them.

I've always suspected that the four of them are the ones you say will answer me. However, I don't know if they are tight-lipped or if it really has nothing to do with you.

They just silently help our father and son, and the house is often very lively.

Sanniang treats Zhan'er like flesh and blood, and Zhan'er will not lose family affection, but recently, he suddenly asked about you.

I was caught off guard.

In the past few days, Zhan'er has not spoken to me, and I have also taken the opportunity to weave more bamboo baskets, which is much closer to the number you set.

Ahem! I can't take it anymore!

Zhan'er didn't talk to me for 20 days, stopped reading books, and flattened the bamboo basket I had knitted.

If this continues, I'm really afraid that one day I won't be able to hold on, and I'll tell him. But tell him that he will be like me, crazy, and constantly guess your whereabouts every day.

But I know that the fire that night was by no means simple, and you were not simple. Don't blame me, I sometimes even wonder if you're human.

Otherwise, how to explain the beads that come out of your mouth.

How to explain that you can send me and Zhan'er safely thousands of miles away.

Thinking about it this way, I still have hope for you.

Maybe you can really get away with that fire, maybe you're still somewhere.

It's just that you can't come to me for a reason I don't know.

But no matter what the reason, with my ability, I can only wait for you silently, even if Zhan'er learns martial arts, what can I do, I will not send him to the bottomless abyss.

This kid suddenly figured it out.

Finally spoke to me today.

Actually, if he had persisted, I might have told him.

You come to give me a comment, this kid, what kind of nerves did you have, you actually mentioned it to me today, you want me to live with Sanniang, and my son will protect Lao Tzu's matchmaker.

Hehe, you haven't heard of it, have you heard of it! I was scolded by me and Sanniang, don't worry, he won't mention it again in the future.

Zhan'er has really grown up and knows how to be filial and considerate of me. Moreover, he is really getting more and more handsome and sunny.

If you see it, you'll be glad you do.

Let me report to you, after years of hard work, Zhan'er is going to take the township test tomorrow, and he has embarked on the same path as me.

I was more excited than he was, and I couldn't sleep all night. I don't know what the outcome will be. But big words, our son will do it!

Oh, my God!

Zhan'er won the first place!

Are you happy?

I will go to the capital next year. I'll go to the street full of pear blossoms.

We Zhan'er became a celebrity in the village, and many people had a much better attitude after seeing me.

The four of them all kept their mouths shut, look, Zhan'er's choice was right!

Zhan'er will go to Beijing tomorrow to take the exam, and it will take a month at most, at least half a month. Li Langzhong and Master Xun went together, and they said that they were old friends when they entered Beijing, but I didn't believe it.

The last township test, it was Sanniang and Shang Ji who went together, and they also said that they were going to do something.

I've lived here for so many years, and I've never heard of any dealings they have with the outside world.

Our Zhan'er is going to take the exam, and he will succeed, and I am confident.

But you don't see how good our son is. How nice it would be if you were!

When I come back from Kyoto, I'll tell you about the current condition of that street, and whether it is still full of pear blossoms as it was back then.

Will you still be standing on that street?

Wife!

What am I going to do?

Zhan'er washed his hands in the moat where I washed my hands, and suddenly fainted, and when I came back, I was all kinds of weird, Li Langzhong said that it was okay.

I believe in his medical skills, and I believe that he is genuinely good for us.

But Zhan'er won the Huiyuan in the exam, and if the Golden Palace wins the championship, it will be the real three yuan.

But during the palace exam, Zhan'er didn't know what to do, and wrote a text that no one could understand. The emperor was furious and disqualified him from Xie Yuan and Hui Yuan.

Although I don't care about fame and fortune, Zhan'er's years of hard work in studying are not all in vain. What should I do?

Seeing this, Fang Zhan said in a deep voice: "Fang Zhan, it's me, I'm sorry for you and Daddy Fang......! I'd rather stay in the moat and never come out for the rest of my life. ”

Fang Zhan shook his head slightly, and said slowly: "I regret the past...... If I had known what had happened to my mother, I wouldn't have gone to school, I wouldn't have been a helpless scholar. Even if I know it now, it's not the same as my father, I can only guess out of thin air, and I can only ...... Wait!"

Ya'er said: "If you start learning now, it may not be too late!"

Fang Zhan sighed and continued to look at it, it was already the last one.

"Our son has suffered an unprecedented blow, and I, the father, can't help in the slightest, just like you, I can only wait, I can't do anything.

I'm going to tell him all about you, and when my son grows up, he should know!"

Fang Zhan finished reading the last one and sat there silently.

No speech, no expression.

Ya'er said: "Inside the lid, there is another one. ”

Fang Zhan took out another piece of paper from the lid of the box, unfolded it to watch, it was a simple limerick poem, titled "Thirteen years of farewell, useless scholars are drunk and sick books":

Qionghua crossed a thousand mountains and landed as a root for migratory birds.

The secluded valley is broken with red dust, and the young son screams in hunger and distress.

The ruined face and broken hands are also willing, and they are white robes for their livelihood.

Clear porridge and wild bamboo shoots are always appropriate, and Zhan'er cries under the ingredients.

The oil is not seen, and the salt is scarce.

Foxes often visit, rats come to pry.

encountered a sad wind without covering his face, which made him laugh lightly with tears.

Thinking of the pear blossoms covering the small bridge, the wife sits under the pear and weaves a basket.

For five years, the clouds are misty.

The father is not happy, and the son is even more troublesome.

Only don't look for a new home under the cliff, and smile when you are accompanied by children.

The new home is ten and a half miles away from the west, and everyone is good at the ethereal bamboo fence.

The bamboo basket vows not to forget each other, weaving nine thousand roads are not far away.

If you want to knock on heaven and give well-being, you hope to pull up your red sleeves and live to old age.

At this point, Fang Zhan finished reading all the papers in the box, and he inspected for another week, and there was nothing else in the house.

Fang Zhan stood up, took a closer look at the six portraits, and suddenly fell to his knees, crying bitterly, he cried for a long time, but Ya'er did not dissuade him.

I don't know how long it took, Fang Zhan stopped crying and slowly stood up.

Ya'er said: "Fang Zhan, if you believe me, let me manipulate your consciousness again, I think I can help you solve a mystery!"

Fang Zhan calmed down and said, "How to solve it, which mystery to solve?"

Ya'er said: "Your father's letter mentions it, and he feels that there are always people watching you on the cliff for a long time." That's not a feeling, I guess, you father and son, all these years, have been being watched or protected, I told you, the people around you are not simple. ”

Fang Zhan said: "This, my father has always been suspicious. ”

Ya'er said, "What about you? have you ever doubted it over the years?"

Fang Zhan let out a sigh and said, "Yes!"

Bud was surprised: "When?"

Fang Zhan said slowly: "Enter Beijing this time!"

Ya'er was puzzled: "What do you suspect?"

Fang Zhan said: "In the fight by the moat, there were four black-clothed masked men who came to rescue me, and those four people, although they were tightly wrapped and did not speak, I knew and determined that they were Master Xun, Li Langzhong, Sanniang, and Uncle Shang Ji. ”

Ya'er asked in surprise, "Then why don't you mention it?"

Fang Zhan said: "Over the years, I have quarreled with my father and been angry for my mother's affairs, and they don't let me know, I will never know a little bit from their mouths." Since they deliberately hide it from me, I don't bother to poke it. Sooner or later, it will come, not now. ”

Ya'er was silent for a while: "I really underestimate you!"

Fang Zhan said, "Do you have any way to solve the mystery?"

Ya'er said: "Let me control your consciousness, and I will take you up to the half-day cliff!"

Fang Zhan thought for a while: "Okay!"

Before Fang Zhan left, he glanced at the portrait again, knelt on the ground, and said, "Mother, Zhan'er has grown up, I don't know if you are still alive, if you are still alive, wait for me!
