"Xuan Cang... I... can I go and see them?" Sitting in the car, I was still a little uneasy after all.
Although the aunt just said one thing, I still care a little.
They haven’t been out for more than ten days... They are not internet addicted teenagers, nor are they their current homes.
Male house female. How can a normal person not go out for more than ten days
Are they sick? Or what other reason? There is no one around them to take care of them, and no one knows if something happens...
The more I thought about it, the more anxious I became. Instead of thinking about it in my heart, it's better to go over and see with my own eyes.
"Yeah!" Xuan Cang seemed to have expected it a long time ago.
Ling Qing, who was sitting at the back, snorted coldly with her hands in her arms, seeming to disagree with my decision, but did not say anything.
I raised my eyes and glanced at Ling Qing from the mirror, because I was thinking of my parents, and I didn't want to hold back with him.
When the car stopped in front of the familiar house, I opened the door and walked out. Xuan Cang followed behind me and walked down slowly.
Ling Qing was about to come down, Xuan Cang paused and turned back: "You are here to accompany him!"
Xuan Cang pointed at Luciyao who was still sleeping in the back of the car. Ling Qing glanced back and twisted his eyebrows as if tangled, and finally sat back a little unwillingly.
"I said you two hurry up! Don't tease the Taoist priest for too long!" As soon as Xuan Cang and I walked to the door, we saw Ling Qing sticking out behind us and shouting at us.
Xuan Cang and I paused, turning our heads to look at Ling Qing rather helplessly.
Reached out to push the door, but suddenly found that the door was locked from the inside!
"Huh?" I looked up at Xuan Cang with some wonder.
It's been three poles now, and the house hasn't even opened yet. It can be seen that it is not already out of the house, it is really like the aunt said, they have not been out of the house for many days.
"Xuan—" I was about to ask Xuan Cang, but his eyes caught the heavy dust on the door door.
When I just reached out and knocked on the door, there was a lot of dust on my fingers.
Xuan Cang immediately noticed something was wrong, and turned around just about to pull me away. The door that had been closed for ten days in front of him was suddenly opened from the inside.
With a squeak... I don't know why, this door seems a bit heavier than before.
"... You..." The person who walked out of the door was stunned when they saw me. The shock on the face and the flashes of panic made people feel down.
"I... I just heard—" I hesitated for a long time, and finally I didn't bother to explain again, and then asked: "Are you all right!"
The man who opened the door and came out was a man with loose clothes and a gray complexion.
However, he hasn't seen him for more than ten days, and he seems to be a lot thinner than when he saw him before.
He shook his head, and the fear in his eyes slowly turned into worry.
"Hey..." Father bowed his head and sighed, his tone of voice was helpless.
I swept up and down my father's loose and messy clothes, plus my already gray hair. Overnight, he seemed to be a teenager.
"What's the matter?" I looked at him carefully, for fear that if my voice was louder, he would be frightened.
For the first time in many years, my father stood in front of me. This makes me feel a little weird, but more of it is joy.
"Your mother..." Father struggled for a long time, but finally only said these three words from his mouth.
My heart trembled suddenly, and suddenly I had a bad feeling.
Before saying goodbye to each other, I just hope they can be well.
Now that they are not living well, it is difficult for me to ignore them.
"What's wrong with her? Is she sick? You haven't been out for so many days. What happened?" I looked at him nervously, reaching out to step forward to hold my father, but Xuan Cang was one step ahead. Hold on.
I turned my head to look at Xuan Cang suspiciously, he lowered his eyes and didn't look at me, as if this action was unintentional.
Father stepped back two steps and opened the door of the house. There is no sun in the gloomy weather outside. The light shines through the door, driving away a lot of the darkness in the room.
"After you left that day, your mother has been very sad... She went back to the room and cried for a long time..." Father turned back and walked into the house.
I took Xuan Cang and walked in.
There is no furniture in the hall, but there is an eight immortal table in the innermost area, with incense candles inserted on it, which is used for the gods on weekdays.
On the right hand side there is a tall square table on which is placed a teapot and cups with ceramic prints.
Father crouched to the square table and poured us two cups of tea with the teapot. Turning around and limping, he walked in front of us again and handed us tea.
I reached out to take the tea, my fingers trembled uncontrollably.
For more than ten years, my parents have ignored me. The cup of tea in this hand was the first thing he gave me.
An ordinary cup of tea, in your hand, looks like a treasure. The cold tea is extremely warm in the palm of his hand.
"Mom—" I condensed the tea in my hand and couldn't help but ask about my mother's condition.
Father looked down at the tea in my hand, and let out another long sigh: "Hey..."
A sigh, full of sadness and helplessness.
Xuan Cang held the tea in his hand and stood quietly beside me. He didn't speak a word during the whole process, just like a shadow guarding me.
"Is it in bad health? Do you want to invite-" Father has not spoken for a long time, and I can't help but feel a little anxious.
Putting down the tea cup in my hand, I immediately got up from the stool.
I didn't use my feet, I suddenly realized that my body couldn't move.
"Xuan—" My heart shrank for a while, and I looked up to call Xuan Cang. But when he saw his father who was originally slow, he didn't know where he took out a kitchen knife and rushed over with it.
"Ah—" I screamed, closing my eyes and dared not look.
Xuan Cang's body remained motionless, so he stood quietly on the spot. Waiting for his father to rush over, before the kitchen knife in his hand touched Xuan Cang, the whole figure seemed to be shaken out by a wall of air.
With a sound of'Dang Cang', his body fell heavily to the ground, and the kitchen knife in his father's hand also fell to the ground with a sound.
Xuan Cang was still in shape, and before he waved his hand, he had already rushed to the side of his father who fell to the ground.
"Xuan Cang!" I exclaimed, a little afraid that Xuan Cang would kill his father just like that!
"He's dead!" Xuan Cang held his hands and looked condescendingly at the man lying motionless on the ground.
I struggled a few times on the stool, and my heavy body suddenly relaxed.
With a jerk, the body can move again. I immediately got up from the stool and walked behind Xuan Cang in disbelief.
