From a distance, Taibai Mountain is like a huge black crouching tiger, Shanghu Village is built on the mountainside of Taibai Mountain, the whole village is like riding on the back of a tiger, the terrain is very dangerous, the highest place of the village is the residence of several elders, you can see the whole picture of Shanghu Village at a glance, and it is the upper class people who live at a glance.

And Qi Fei's home is in the middle of the village, it looks not very conspicuous, this is a slightly old single-storey wooden building, in front of the house is a yard, Qi Fei pushed open the courtyard door and walked in, greeted by a fragrance of flowers, although it is night, but by the moonlight can still be seen, a pear blossom is blooming.

Qi Fei, who walked into the courtyard, was not in the mood to appreciate the fragrance of the tree, a lamp in the lobby of the house was like a bean, and the food he made when he left on the table did not move at all, and he faced the appearance of the three elders just now, and the moment he saw the situation in the house, he retracted, and sighed in his heart: Father has not gone out for several days.

Qi Fei walked in quickly, deliberately making the footsteps heavier, father and son usually don't talk much, sometimes they can't say a word for several days, Qi Fei used this to tell his father that he was back. Qi Fei cleaned up the food on the table, knowing that his father was a person who did not listen to persuasion, and it was useless to say anything when he didn't want to eat, so the things on the table did not move, and Qi Fei knew that there was no need to say any more, which could be regarded as a tacit understanding between father and son.

Qi Fei actually has no bottom about the things after tomorrow, but since Elder Gu has said everything, then come on, besides, with the authority of the ancestral spirit, he knows that it should not favor anyone, as long as the rules are fair, Qi Fei is not afraid of anyone.

Just as Qi Fei was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, a low, slightly hoarse voice next door said, "What's the matter? Did Elder Gu say that he wanted to invite the Ancestral Spirit?"

Qi Fei was taken aback, and thought: "How does my father know?" He hasn't been out for so many days, it doesn't make sense? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but express the doubts in his heart, and said, "Elder Gu did say that he wanted to invite the ancestral spirit, but I don't know what kind of form it is. After a pause, he said, "How could my father know about this without leaving home?"

Qi Fei's father sat in the dark, and if he looked closely, he could find that this was an unusually handsome man, with a face as clear as a knife, and a pair of eyes as bright as stars in the dark, but he looked a little distracted, staring at the front emptyly, Qi Fei's appearance was eighty percent similar to his father, but the facial lines were softer.

Next door was a long silence, Qi Fei was used to his father's silence. The dialogue between the father and son does not necessarily have results, and the situation between the father and son is greater than the meaning of the dialogue itself, as if the dialogue between the two is just to let the other party know that there is such a person as the other party.

Qi Fei didn't wait for the result, his thoughts slowly drifted to other places, but today Qi Fei's father seemed to say a few more words, and said: "Go through my mantra a few times, and don't pull down your homework." Qi Fei couldn't see it, at this time, the empty look in the eyes of the father next door had been replaced by a trace of reminiscence, in the eyes of Qi Fei's father, as if he saw the stubborn young man decades ago, he was resolutely saying to the younger Elder Gu: "I want to invite the ancestral spirit." ”

Qi Fei's doubts in his heart were even worse, what happened to his father today? He still cared about his homework? This situation rarely appeared in Qi Fei's memory, since Qi Fei began to remember, the number of times his father took the initiative to care about himself can be said to be pitiful.

Qi Fei has never seen his mother since he was a child, and his father brought him up as both a father and a mother, and his father is not very convenient to move due to his disability, and because he doesn't talk much, he must lack care for Qi Fei.

Qi Fei has been very envious of other friends since he was a child, because they all have mothers who love him, Qi Fei also asked his father where his mother was, but whenever Qi Fei asked like this, he would be exchanged for his father's silence, Qi Fei could understand that behind the silence was unspeakable pain, and over time Qi Fei also knew that his father must have some difficulties, so he no longer mentioned his mother in front of his father.

When Qi Fei grew up, he gradually understood some things, such as his father. Qi Fei's father retired from the Iron Tiger Army, due to an accident when performing some tasks, resulting in the loss of his right hand and left leg, and since then, his father has lost the qualification to practice, but no one knows what the accident is, because these things are also what Qi Fei has heard from the mouth.

For his mother, Qi Fei has had a lot of imagination, Qi Fei has imagined that his mother is gentle and virtuous, and will mend his clothes, sometimes when he wakes up from the illusion, his mother will appear by his bedside and look at him gently, but imagination is just imagination after all, reality is cruel, and his mother is just a dream for Qi Fei.

It is said that a motherless child is like a grass, and Qi Fei is a wildfire that cannot be burned out, and the spring breeze blows and grows again. Since he was a child, Qi Fei knew that what he wanted could only be fought for by himself, snatching things and fighting with others, which was commonplace, and he often went home with a blue nose and swollen face, but as long as it was not the kind of particularly fatal pain, his father would generally not ask, which created Qi Fei's tenacious and unyielding character, in the eyes of his peers, Qi Fei is the kind of person who fights and does not want to die, and everyone is afraid of him.

In addition, Qi Fei's father is the identity of the Iron Tiger Army, and ordinary people dare not mess with him, because the Iron Tiger Army is the patron saint of Jingzhou, and the Iron Tiger Army takes extraordinary care of those who are injured due to merit.

Of course, Qi Fei is not the kind of person who relies on his father's identity to deliberately cause trouble everywhere, he also has his own principles, for unfair things, Qi Fei will jump out, and for those who bully the weak, Qi Fei will never be polite.

Although Qi Fei has never met his mother, and his father has never said anything about his mother, Qi Fei has always thought that his mother is somewhere. Because in the winter when Qi Fei was ten years old, there was a person who came to see his father. That time, Qi Fei saw very rarely, his father actually smiled.

That day, Qi Fei went back to the room early to sleep, his father and that person had been chatting in the room until late, maybe his father thought that Qi Fei was asleep, or because of excitement, Qi Fei heard his father actually mention his mother's matter, Qi Fei vaguely heard that his mother was somewhere, and his father's injury was related to his mother.

After the man left, his father hung a round pendant on Qi Fei's chest. At the same time, Qi Fei's father taught Qi Fei a mantra and asked him to practice diligently every day, and Qi Fei explained in detail what he didn't understand, and since then, Qi Fei's body has become stronger day by day, and he has not suffered from any problems.

In the winter of the eleventh year old, the village asked Zu Ling to enlighten this group of children, Qi Fei didn't spend much effort at all, and directly succeeded in enlightening the spirit, of course, other people didn't know about it, after all, Zu Ling would not publicize these things, but just said that this batch of ten children, eight Qiling was successful.

Qi Fei touched the pendant on his chest, and his intuition told him that this pendant might be related to his mother.
