I didn't answer Huang Jiu's words immediately and looked up at the sky.
In the night sky, stars shine.
But under Ling's eyes, there was some light in the dark forest.
It was this insignificant light that kept me from completely falling into darkness.
Soon, I cleared myself of negative emotions. He stood up and looked at Huang Xian'er and shouted: "Sister Xian'er..."
I want it to do a favor and wait until tomorrow afternoon to release Liu Changxuan.
But thinking about it, it has helped me so much, and now that the female corpse is gone, the previous promises cannot be fulfilled, and the words that come to my mouth are a little hard to say for a while.
And just as I yelled, Huang Xianer's face showed an expression of impatience.
I smiled awkwardly and said bravely: "Sister Xian'er, she sent me a message when she left, saying that she would come to me soon, and then all the promises I made would be fulfilled."
Huang Xian'er's expression didn't change much, and she said with a little tiredness: "I can keep these two bull noses for you until tomorrow morning. Whatever you want to do, please arrange it as soon as possible!"
After saying that, Huang Xian'er returned to her half-human, half-animal appearance, turned around and walked towards the ancient tomb.
Huang Jiu looked at his wife's back and comforted me: "Don't take it to heart. My mother-in-law has a sharp mouth but a soft heart."
Seeing that Huang Jiu was still talking to me, Huang Xian'er said angrily: "If you don't come back to me alive, do you want our whole family to be wiped out?"
Huang Jiu looked at me in embarrassment, and I smiled softly and said, "Go ahead! I will handle my own affairs."
Huang Jiu patted his chest gratefully, "Being brothers is in our hearts."
I'm a little speechless. Have you watched too much Young and Dangerous?
But my heart still felt slightly warm.
The ancient tomb is Huang Jiu's home, and I can't enter.
Huang Xian'er's attitude is also very clear, that is, the past has come to an end, and the road ahead will have nothing to do with each other.
After taking a short rest, I paid no attention to Master and Disciple Liu Changxuan. Since Huang Xianer agreed, he will be responsible to the end.
When we walked out of the forest, it was already late at night.
Looking at the quiet wilderness, the emptiness in my heart was infinitely magnified.
I feel a bit at a loss as to what to do, and I don’t seem to see any bright future for myself.
People have many ambitions.
But the aura exuded by the man in black was like a shackle, locking up my ambition.
Even just thinking about it makes me feel deeply powerless.
Returning to my old house, I shouted angrily into the wilderness, releasing my inner depression.
After one party vented and his emotions were relieved, I took out the wooden sign in my pocket and observed it.
It was a piece of black wood, so black it seemed to absorb light.
A five-clawed dragon is carved on the front, which is lifelike.
On the back is a simple word "white", and other than that, there are no unnecessary modifications.
I held the token tightly, remembering the cold and arrogant tone of the man in black, and finally broke away from the shackles in my heart in anger.
Isn't it just a hundred thousand mountains... No matter how high it is?
At least I'll take the first step.
And Laoshan is the guiding stone for me to take this step.
But I can't let them find me in the village, which will harm my parents.
Going to the city became my only choice.
I took out the address left by my second uncle:
Provincial capital, Qingning Street, No. 85.
At dawn the next day, I carried my grandfather’s box and went down the mountain early.
I originally wanted to avoid my mother, so I secretly left a note telling her that I was going to see my second uncle.
As a result, my mother did not go to the ground, but sat under the eaves, her eyes a little dull.
It is said that mother and child are connected. Although she has not witnessed what happened to me these days, she may have been aware of it.
Seeing me, my mother suddenly came to her senses and quickly stood up to take the backpack from my shoulders.
I pretended that nothing was wrong and said calmly: "Mom, tell him that my father is back and everything will be settled."
My mother's hand froze, "What about the girl?"
"Her family came to pick her up and she went back last night." I smiled, but no matter how relaxed I pretended to be, how could I hide it from my mother.
My mother patted the grass clippings on my body and comforted me: "Just leave, it's not a big deal. If you wait too long and sell the family's cows, my mother will find a good girl for you to propose marriage to."
Speaking of this, I blush a little and feel a little melancholy.
People in the mountains get married early, and the little boy of the same age became a father last year.
If I hadn't gone to junior high school, I might have been like him.
After muttering a few words, my mother went to the kitchen to make some noodles for me.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, I packed up all my grandfather's clothes, the yellow talisman I snatched from the little Taoist priest, and the short knife.
Plus I picked up a few decent looking clothes.
After all, I was going to the city, so I couldn't dress too shabby.
My mother brought the egg noodles and was stunned for a moment when she saw the backpack next to me.
I stood up, took the noodles, smelled it, and ate happily. After two bites, seeing my mother still standing, I pretended to be casual and said: "Mom, I want to find my second uncle!"
When my mother heard this, she obviously clenched her fist: "Yangyang, have you encountered something? Just tell your mother and she will find a solution for you."
When my second uncle left, he told me to go find him if anything happened.
My mother misunderstood.
I explained, but my mother was dubious and went back to the back room.
When she came out, she held a tightly wrapped handkerchief in her hand, stuffed it into my hand and said, "This is the money mom saved from selling eggs. Take it. I'll find your second uncle in the city. Give it to me." Mom brings a letter."
As she said that, my mother couldn't help wiping away tears.
I'm not good at expressing myself, so I quickly said with a smile: "Mom, what are you doing? People in the village don't go to the city to work every year. I'd better go find my second uncle, so don't worry."
I took the money.
Because I am penniless, I don’t even have the fare, and if I don’t take it, my mother won’t be relieved.
My mother was afraid that she would cry in front of me, so she hid in the house.
And the moment I walked out of the house, I burst into tears.
Although the three tile-roofed houses are dilapidated, they are full of fireworks.
I have thought more than once that this is probably the root of my life. I will marry a wife and have children here and live an ordinary life.
But once you take this step, you can never go back.
It's even possible that I'll never get this feeling again in my life.
I wonder if everyone who has left their hometown feels this way.
This is what I am thinking about at this moment.
I didn't hesitate and didn't dare to look back.
After walking out of the village, the tears on my face were dried, and I rubbed my face to calm myself down.
When we were going over Niutou Slope, there was sudden movement behind us.
I turned around and saw Huang Jiu wearing floral pants and carrying a sexy floral bag on his shoulder, running out of breath.
I looked at it in surprise.
Huang Jiushun was relieved and grinned: "Brother, when you go out to see the colorful world outside, how can you miss me?"
I frowned immediately.
When it came this time, it didn't seem like it was following an order, but rather like it was running away from home.
Huang Xian'er is the grass-headed king of the party, and I don't want to mess with it, so I kicked Huang Jiu away and said, "Let's go and play!"
After saying that, he ignored it and walked towards the outside of the mountain.
