Chapter 109 Hope is the most precious gift(2/3)
Before erasing his name, he seemed to have a pretty good family...
After reading the archives, Baixiu didn't quite understand why Yu Shu chose to become a "sacrifice".
It took him an hour to find the address of Yu Shu's parents currently living as recorded in the [Deep Sea] database... There are not many high-rise buildings in this small town, but there are many adjacent houses.
Yu Shu's parents live in an old courtyard. Although they have lived there for ten years, it does not look shabby. There are still several pots of green plants on the wall. Perhaps it is because they have been taken care of all year round. Standing outside the courtyard gate, it is also
You can feel the vitality in the yard.
Baixiu hesitated before knocking on the door.
He adjusted his clothes, adjusted his mood, and then knocked on the door.
There were light footsteps in the yard.
It was Yu Shu's sister who ran to open the door.
"...It's brother! Brother is back!"
A girl with braids ran over, and before opening the door, she spoke in a sweet voice, full of surprise.
After opening the door, the girl saw an unfamiliar face.
She was a little confused.
"I am... Yu Shu's friend." Bai Xiu lowered his eyebrows slightly. He hesitated for a moment, squatted down, and said softly: "Where are your parents?"
The little girl blinked and hid half of her body behind the door, but she was not afraid of anything.
Maybe it's because the white sleeves look so good.
She looked back at the house...
After thinking for a long time, the little girl wrung her hands together and read aloud word by word very seriously: "Mom... dad... is in the house... mom is taking care of dad."
Bai Xiu smiled softly and asked, "Can I come in?"
A woman walked out of the room with a haggard expression. Her hands stained with oil smoke were being wiped on her apron. Seeing the appearance of Baixiu, she felt a little embarrassed. She pinched the corner of the apron and said softly: "If you don't mind...
Just go into the house and have a cup of tea."
Bai Xiu entered the courtyard.
This is indeed a very lively yard.
A shade shed was set up in the yard to enjoy the shade, and there were large graffiti painted on the walls. He caught a glimpse of the graffiti corner, and there was a chalk calendar full of crosses. He erased it many times and wrote it many times...
After the girl let go of the door handle, she ran to the corner of the wall, picked up the smoothed chalk, and lightly drew a cross on the latest date on the calendar in the corner.
After entering the house, there was a sharp contrast.
The facilities in the house are very simple, an ordinary bed, a complex set of instruments, and a man who looks like a withered man.
Baixiu looked around silently.
Other than that, the house is bare.
He couldn't understand...why the man who devoted everything to the Bai family ended up in such a situation?
During the years that Yu Shu was a sacrificer, his family deserved to be treated with the highest standards.
Baixiu's spiritual power spread silently. He looked at the man lying on the bed. Yu Shu's father was as thin as a piece of paper. From his open chest, there was almost no sound of a strong heartbeat.
The electrocardiogram instrument only showed slight fluctuations...
Bai Xiu wanted to see what kind of disease it was and whether it was really incurable.
And after the mental contact.
He realized that things were not as simple as he thought.
The man lying on the bed had no consciousness, his spirit was completely shattered... It was a miracle that he maintained basic vital signs.
He still has ways to deal with "fainting" or "loss of consciousness" under normal circumstances.
But this is the case.
Not to mention myself, even if the throne of God comes, there is nothing we can do. No one can save an empty shell that has lost its soul.
"Thank you for traveling all the way... How is Yu Shu doing in Beizhou?"
Yu Shu's mother was holding hot tea. She looked at Bai Xiu nervously. This young man looked very much like a noble son from a wealthy family. Does Yu Shu really have a chance to meet such a friend?
Beizhou...
The files of [Deep Sea] record Yu Shu's deeds before he became a sacrificer, but it cannot record Yu Shu's explanation to his parents before leaving Huaiyin. After all, he is an unimportant person, a dust of the times.
, no one will care about what he says, just like no one will care...where he goes.
Bai Xiu took a sip of tea.
A mellow and powerful voice sounded outside the door.
"Mrs. She! Do you still remember me?"
"A Shu often talks about you and wants to come back to see you... It's a pity that he is still stationed in the fortress. Xiaoxiu and I took annual leave and happened to pass by Huaiyin, so I came to see you for him." A middle-aged man in simple clothes.
The young man pushed open the door and walked in. His smile was very kind and his laughter was full of joy. He picked up the little girl who was squatting in the corner painting.
Baixiu was stunned.
House owner?!
The middle-aged man took out a toy from his inner pocket like a magic trick. It was a sunflower that was about to wither. In cold areas like Jiangbei, this kind of plant is almost impossible to see.
The little girl's eyes lit up and she was quite curious.
"Do you still remember me?" The head of the Bai family said with a smile and handed the flowers over.
"Remember……"
The little guy took the sunflower, carefully smoothed the petals that were about to wither, and said softly: "You are the bad guy who picked up my brother... Bai... Uncle idiot..."
Baixiu's expression was a little complicated.
The real name of the head of the Bai family is Bai Xiaochi.
In so many years... this is the first time someone has called the head of the family that.
After hearing this answer, the woman was obviously a little angry. She came to the child and corrected her carefully word by word: "You can't say that! It's very rude..."
"It's okay, it's okay... the child is still young."
Bai Xiaochi didn't get angry at all. Instead, he laughed and put the child down.
He came to Bai Xiu, put down the package he was carrying, and said with a soft smile: "A Shu asked me and Xiao Xiu to bring some Beizhou specialties, and some money... all in this package.
"
The child holding Sunflower in his arms tugged on the corner of his mother's clothes and looked at the two people silently.
She whispered: "Brother...it's been a long time...he hasn't come back..."
Yu Shu's mother looked at the package on the table with a complicated expression. She seemed to be thinking about something.
"You two...please wait a moment."
After taking a deep breath, she carried the child to the next door room.
…
…
"Why did you come?"
Baixiu did not break the silence in the room, but transmitted the message with spiritual power.
"Why can't I come?"
Bai Xiaochi also responded with spiritual power.
There was still a faint smile on his face.
No one would have thought that... this decisive and murderous head of the Bai family would have such an "amiable" side.
"There are some things that are not in [Deep Sea]'s files. You don't need to have high authority to know."
Bai Xiaochi wrote lightly: "Bai Zesheng didn't know the information about 'Qu Long' because I personally picked up the sacrificer... Yu Shu's wish is that his parents' files can be effectively protected
."
"Effective protection...means being alone, with father and daughter dependent on each other?"
"...If you insist on understanding it this way, yes, this is the most effective protection."
Bai Xiaochi looked at the man on the bed and said calmly: "This man is dead. Even if Gu Changzhi comes back to life, he won't survive."
Bai Xiu was silent.
Because he knew...the family leader was telling the truth.
"We can't resurrect a dead person, but we can do it... let the living continue to live."
Bai Xiaochi spoke softly, "When Yu Shu awakened his extraordinary abilities, something unexpected happened. His physical condition was very poor and he needed to constantly take medicine to stabilize his body. He took the initiative to find the Bai family, hoping that he could keep taking medicine and live as long as possible.
