The leaves on the trees outside the courtyard fell with the wind, fell to my shoulders, and then fell to the ground.
Zhang Xiaoqi lowered his head and looked at the fallen leaves.
There was a lot of confusion in his eyes as to what it meant to set foot on this mountain at this time.
"rustle……"
The leaves rustled, and Zhang Xiaoqi came to his senses in a trance and asked: "Can I come back after leaving?"
Chen Changsheng looked at him and said, "Maybe I can come back."
Zhang Xiaoqi turned to look at Xianhe and asked: "Really?"
Xianhe hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
But it's just maybe.
But the journey is far away, facing the deserted sea and seeing high mountains. It is extremely difficult to come back. Moreover, after entering the mountain gate, the years are no longer one year after another...
Zhang Xiaoqi seemed to have noticed something. He looked at his husband again and asked, "What will my parents do if I go?"
"Same as usual." Chen Changsheng said.
"Is this so..."
Zhang Xiaoqi looked at the green mountains under the floating clouds in the distance. His eyes seemed to see the mountains above the clouds through the clouds.
But he suddenly lowered his head and looked at the lively Qiuyue Square.
In that long silence.
Zhang Xiaoqi withdrew his gaze and asked.
"Can I go down the mountain?"
Chen Changsheng paused in his heart and nodded: "Okay."
Zhang Xiaoqi took a step forward and ran outside the moment he got the answer.
He suddenly stopped and turned to look at Bai He and Mr. Qingshan in the courtyard, but then quickly turned around and ran down the mountain.
Mo Yuan in the front yard saw him running out of the Taoist temple.
When he came to the gate, he saw the young man staggering down the mountain.
Mo Yuan shook his head and sighed, looking into the distance.
"People in the world are asking for nothing, but some people are escaping in a hurry. The world is really interesting."
…
Zhang Xiaoqi fell down the mountain, and the skin on his palm was broken, with blood stains flowing out.
He stood up and ran towards home regardless of where he was injured.
Qiuyuefang is as usual as ever, with waiters greeting people outside the restaurant, old men chatting under the trees, and women washing clothes with a stick by the well...
Zhang Xiaoqi came to the broken house by the river and shouted.
"Abba! Abba!!"
He broke into the broken house, but saw that the door was empty. Zhang Xiaoqi suddenly panicked and ran home quickly.
He was breathing heavily and didn't dare to stop for a moment.
Seeing him running very fast, people around him would ask questions from time to time, but they couldn't get any answers from the boy.
Now in his eyes, there is only the road in front of him.
Zhang Xiaoqi passed by the street where his grandmother usually set up a stall, and saw that the cake stall was empty. He gasped and became more and more uneasy.
He gritted his teeth, letting his chest hurt, and ran home as hard as he could.
"Bang!"
Zhang Xiaoqi broke into the house.
"Aniang! Dad!"
He looked around, but saw that the room was empty, except that there were six incense candles in front of the ancestral hall.
Zhang Xiaoqi glanced at it and immediately saw the letter placed on the incense table.
He was startled and suddenly calmed down.
Zhang Xiaoqi walked to the incense table and picked up the letter.
He slowly opened it and saw the writing on it.
[My son, I believe you when you see me]
[My father is not a good father. I’m sorry for your mother-in-law, and I’m even more sorry for you for causing you all to suffer so much over the years.]
[But fortunately, you have grown up safely. All this is thanks to your mother. Now you are not young anymore. You have to find a way after all. Dad asked Mr. Chen for this, which is what I tell you on weekdays.
That’s the only thing daddy can do for you.]
[Dad, I haven’t read as much as you, so I can’t write those nice words, but I heard Mr. Chen say something to your grandpa when he was drinking before. 】
[A real man should have the ambition to be a great swan. He should not stay depressed and depressed for a long time, holding a three-foot sword to achieve unparalleled achievements. ]
[My father and mother are gone, and maybe they will never come back again. This world is so big, it’s not difficult to find a place to live. Don’t worry about us. Remember to listen to Mr. Chen’s words. That’s something that no one in the world can find.
A road.]
【Gone, don’t think about it, don’t remember it.】
Zhang Xiaoqi's hand holding the letter began to tremble, and he suddenly felt his eyes go dark, and he immediately fell down.
He fell in front of the ancestral hall, and what he saw was a few wisps of green smoke rising from the furnace.
He gasped, unable to get up anymore.
Zhang Xiaoqi's eyes were full of helplessness, as if all these things were not his choice.
At this moment, he regretted going up that mountain and entering that door...
If, but there is no if.
Zhang Xiaoqi's eyes turned red, and when he closed his eyes, some tears flowed down his cheeks and onto the ground.
…
At sunset, there is no sunset, only a layer of haze.
Mo Yuan was leaning on the door eaves, resting his head on his hands and taking a nap. He murmured: "It will also be much cooler if it rains."
As he said that, he turned around and saw the young man going up the mountain.
Zhang Xiaoqi's eyes were dull and there were a few holes in his clothes. He looked up and saw Mo Yuan at the door.
Mo Yuan smiled warmly, straightened up and sat on the door rail, and asked, "Why are you back again?"
Zhang Xiaoqi opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
"Don't rush in, come and sit for a while."
Mo Yuan said something and then motioned for him to sit next to him.
Zhang Xiaoqi hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and sat down.
Mo Yuan patted his shoulder and said, "Do you know how many people dream of this?"
The young man shook his head and said, "I want my father and mother."
Mo Yuan shook his head and said: "This matter is not your choice, and if you want to live forever, you must cut off your past and leave the past behind. This is the road your father and mother have paved for you long ago. You
You have to go if you want to go, and you have to go if you don’t want to go.”
The young man fell silent and looked down at the shoes with a hole in his feet.
Mo Yuan said: "It's rare to have the best of both worlds. Your father made the best choice for you."
The young man raised his head, and at this moment, many thoughts buried in his heart burst out.
"What is good? What is bad?"
"Just ask me and arrange everything properly without giving me a chance to choose, okay?"
Mo Yuan said calmly: "You have no choice."
The young man opened his mouth. Indeed, he had no choice.
Mo Yuan looked at him and said: "I have seen too many people like you, but in fact your choice is far inferior to the arranged path."
"If you want to resist and fight, you must have the strength. When you can ignore all this, it is up to you to decide whether you stay or go."
Zhang Xiaoqi asked: "How far should we go?"
"To what extent..."
Mo Yuan thought for a moment and said, "As long as I can be as good as Mr. Chen, that's enough."
