Chapter 315: Breaking the Illusion
Stepping into the phantom array, the white expanse made Shen Lang's entire consciousness blurred, and he didn't know where he was. —. {2} {3} {w} {x}].
Slowly, Shen Lang seemed to have returned to the place where he once lived, the place where he was waiting for the wine green neon flashing, his father and mother were still waiting for him to come home for dinner.
Walking on the familiar road, looking at the extremely familiar scenes, Shen Lang had an unreal feeling, has he really come back?
The qiē that happened before seemed to be a dream.
"Xiao Lang, are you back?" the mother behind the door called his name affectionately, and Shen Lang felt that his eyes were a little rosy.
I really haven't experienced this feeling for a long time, my nose smelled my favorite dish, and Shen Lang shouted with some excitement: "Mom, I'm back." ”
An ordinary-looking middle-aged woman pushed the door open, looked at Shen Lang standing outside the door, and looked at him with a kind face: "You kid, you forgot to bring the key again, right?"
Looking at the figure that was already a little blurry in his memory, Shen Lang rushed into his mother's arms, his eyes were a little moist, and he said in a choked voice: "You and Dad have been okay recently." ”
"You stupid boy, are you not going well outside? Your father and I are not the same, and we forgot about it after we haven't seen each other for a long time. The kind mother said to Shen Lang with a smile.
The two walked into the room, the layout inside was still so familiar, Shen Lang reached out and touched the yellowed wallpaper, this is the place where he grew up, although it is already a little shabby. But the memories are still so familiar.
Before the two of them could sit down, they heard the sound of the key turning outside the door, and the mother smiled and said to Shen Lang, "Your father is back." It's just time for us to have dinner, and what you cook today is what you two like to eat. ”
As the door was pushed open, a middle-aged man with gray hair walked in, without the middle-aged hair of ordinary men, with a resolute face, people seemed to know that this person must be a breeze with two sleeves.
After the middle-aged man saw that Shen Lang was also at home, a faint trace of joy flashed in his eyes. But his usual style made it difficult for him to pull down his face and say a soft word to his son, so he just nodded and asked casually, "I'm back." ”
See your father again. Shen Lang was still a little excited in his heart, thinking about the somewhat stiff father-son relationship in the past, he didn't talk back for the first time, but took the initiative to shout: "Dad, you're back." ”
Shen Lang's father had a surprised expression on his face. I didn't expect my son to call himself Dad. It seems that since the son entered puberty, he rarely called himself like this.
The stiff expression also melted a little, and he said with a soft face: "En is back, it's almost the New Year, and things have been busy lately." ”
Shen Lang nodded, did not speak, took the initiative to take the leather bag in his father's hand and put it on his usual place, and saw that his son began to be sensible. As a father, he naturally felt a little warm in his heart, and there was a little more smile on his originally majestic face.
"It's hard for us to get together as a family today. Xiaolang, you are working hard now, take advantage of the upcoming New Year, and drink two glasses with your father. "It's rare for the father to ask Shen Lang to drink a few glasses with him, as a person who usually doesn't drink outside, it is very rare to drink with his son, which is also a way for men to get closer to each other.
After helping his mother bring all the dishes to the table, Shen Lang sat down and prepared a rare home-cooked dinner.
The father took out a long time that he was usually reluctant to drink, refused Shen Lang's kindness to pour wine, and began to pour a glass of wine for Shen Lang himself, and then poured himself a glass, but it didn't seem as much as Shen Lang's cup.
Before cooking, his father always had to habitually say a few words, which was also the reason why Shen Lang didn't like to eat at home for so many years, because he couldn't stand his father's nagging, and some of the things he said were nothing more than to make himself motivated and work hard.
This is also the reason why Shen Lang looks down on his father with two sleeves and a clean breeze in his heart, he is still just a small leader for so many years, and the power in his hands is not as big as some people's Xiaomi, but he has always been conscientious, as long as it is a matter of work, he does not dare to be sloppy at all.
In this drunken society, there are fewer and fewer such people, and it is more difficult to get ahead, and now I still expect to be such a person, if it was Shen Lang before, of course I don't have much patience to listen to these words.
But now he is very patient to listen to his father's teachings, although these words are difficult to achieve in today's society, but this is a father's expectation of his son.
But today it was beyond Shen Lang's expectations, and his father also knew that he didn't like to hear those words, but said something else: "Dad also knows that you have grown up now, and the environment today is different from ours at that time, there is not much way out just by hard work, but Dad has no ability, and he can't let you have a good condition, in fact, I don't have too many requirements with your mother, and I don't want you to be a marquis and worship each other, as long as you are safe and healthy, we can rest assured." ”
When he said this, Shen Lang found that the wrinkles at the corners of his father's eyes and the gray hair on his head seemed to be more, and it was rare not to see the quarrel between father and son, and his mother also seemed very relieved.
Shen Lang felt that his throat seemed to be blocked by something, his chest seemed to be breathless, and he looked at his father with red eyes, it was this middle-aged man who looked a little fierce on weekdays, and many of his own truths were instilled in him, the father who used to go to school behind his back and play with him, looked at him carefully today, his father has really begun to get old.
"Dad, I know that I have been ignorant all these years, and I have not listened to your teachings properly, and I will never be in the future. Shen Lang choked up and said, thinking about his behavior over the years, he talked back to his parents if he had a slight disobedience, which made the two old men worry a lot for him.
The mother's eyes also flashed with tears, she could see that her son was sensible, no one was happier than his parents, and the father, an iron-faced and selfless man, had red eyes, and drank the wine glass.
Looking at the boss who was very happy today, the mother secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said angrily: "You old man, you obviously said that you would drink with your son, but you drank it yourself, eat some food first, and drink alcohol on an empty stomach to hurt your body." ”
Shen Lang filled up his father's hand, and then put the vegetables into the bowl for the two old men, doing things that had never been done before, and the two old men were also very happy to eat the dishes brought by their son.
With tears in his eyes, he picked up the wine glass, and couldn't say a word for a long time, as a parent, he could feel the excitement in his son's heart, and he originally wanted to give the wine to his parents, but after serving it for a long time, he gently put it down, and the tears that flashed in his eyes were gone, and he looked at the dishes in front of him with a flat face, without the slightest intention of moving the chopsticks.
The mother asked puzzledly: "What's the matter, Xiaolang, why don't you eat it, these are the dishes you usually like to eat, why didn't you even eat a bite today." ”
Shen Lang's face was expressionless, as if he hadn't heard his mother's words at all, and said without any emotion in his mouth: "These dishes are all I like to eat, but my mother will put a lot of salt in these dishes every time, and I already know when I smell it, this dish is full of color and fragrance, and it is not something my mother can make at all." ”
Then he took another look at the bottle of wine, looked at his father, who had a little on his face, and said, "My dad never drank such a small glass, so when I was ten years old, he died of alcoholism." ”
After the two heard Shen Lang's words, they also became expressionless, the dishes in front of them also turned into ashes and disappeared, the familiar room began to disappear, and finally the parents who played the depths of their memories slowly disappeared.
Although he saw through this illusion, in Shen Lang's heart, how much he hoped that what happened just now was true, his mother pulled him up alone, but he was once young and frivolous, and he couldn't experience that deep maternal love, thinking about his mother who was getting older, Shen Lang didn't know how sad his mother would be in another world after he disappeared, but with his current strength, he would definitely not be able to return to that world.
After thinking of this, Shen Lang finally had another reason, he wanted to return to that world again, see his mother, and let himself get a strong maternal love again.
The disappearance of the illusion also means that Shen Langtong has passed the test, although this illusion did not let him indulge for long, but it also planted a seed in his heart, but I don't know if this seed can grow a towering tree in the future, or bury a tumor with endless disasters.
Shen Lang passed through the Light Gate again, and entered the tenth layer of the King's Tower, the ninth floor in front, which made him feel a lot, this is really an excellent place to cultivate disciples, if this treasure can be used, it will definitely be able to cultivate countless strong people for the Netherworld Sect in the future, and when the time comes, not only the southern Xinjiang, but the whole world will look forward to the Netherworld Sect.
Now Shen Lang has to continue to pass the tests of each level, only by winning the final victory in the Holy Son Dabi can he have the help to realize his ideals, and even after his cultivation is stronger, he can find out how to return to the world he once had, and the premise of this qiē is that he can pass these tests.
The tests of the next few levels, for Shen Lang, are not particularly difficult, they are all about the understanding of the Great Dao, as long as the monk has enough understanding of his own Dao, he will be able to pass the Dao.
The tests of several floors in a row were all for Shen Lang to pass through the avenue he had cultivated, to refine the talisman or to arrange the formation of his own avenue.
These are Shen Lang's strengths, it can be said that among the monks in the entire world, as long as those monks have not reached the peak of the Feather Transformation Period, not many people can surpass him, and in the comprehension of the Chaos Dao, they can only reach Xiaocheng by a little, which can only be done after achieving immortals.
