the beginning of the end

The living room was too cold. Shen Xi hugged his son Mu Xibao and sat by the stove. In the current weather, a stove couldn’t stop the cold. Next to him, a pot of charcoal was burned in a large iron basin. The charcoal was good charcoal, and the smoke was very dusty. There are few people, but it is a pity that the wooden floor in the living room, in order to put the stove safely, Mu Qiangguo removed a circle in the middle of the living room, but the removed floor cannot be used for burning. These floors have withstood Chemical treatment is not flammable, and there is too much smoke when it burns, not to mention whether the chemical substances emitted from it will cause human poisoning, but there are still many people who do not have charcoal in their homes to dismantle it for heating.

Mu Xibao was dressed thickly, and obediently let his father hug him. The weather was too cold, and the child stayed by the fire to keep warm. In such a cold day, he couldn't run and play, and he slept too much, so he was a little nervous. Yan really didn't want to move.

"How about you go and see your mother." Shen Xi looked at the silent Mu Qiangguo and said slowly.

"You two?" Mu Qiangguo raised his head. He actually wanted Shen Xi and his son to go with him. Now there is no way to drive outside, only to walk. The place where his mother lives is still some distance from here. Tomorrow will be the next trip, the old man will definitely not want to come here when he is old, and his sister-in-law is pregnant again, but he doesn't want his wife and son to suffer together.

It was his own mother, and it was impossible to really ignore it.

"Why don't you go to the space with your son." Mu Qiangguo thought for a while, and calmly suggested, go to the space, no matter where he goes, as long as he enters the space, he can see his lover and son.

"My son and I will go to your mother's place with you." Shen Xi shook his head.

"It's too cold outside." Mu Qiangguo frowned, disagreeing, his son is too young, if it is cold, it will break down.

"It's impossible for you to stay by our side and protect us forever." Shen Xi is also a man with abilities. He can't be protected by Mu Qiangguo all his life and live under his wing all the time. He doesn't want to be someone who doesn't know the world. Trash, he can only see all kinds of things in the world, so that he can survive in the last days better and improve his cultivation state of mind.

Mu Qiangguo also knew that if he cared about it, he would cause chaos, and he forgot that Shen Xi was not a weak person. He was just a lover, and as a father, he was used to considering the safety of his lover and son in everything.

Shen Xi knows that Mu Qiangguo is so abnormal because he loves him and his son too much, and he has always enjoyed this kind of protection, which makes him feel that he is no longer alone and lonely. He has a lover, a son, and a home, etc. Follow him back.

"But son—" Mu Qiangguo hesitated, his son was too young, and he was really worried about taking him out, but he was worried that he would not be able to see him in the space alone.

"Take it, my son must get used to the current life." Shen Xi made up his mind firmly, he didn't want to develop a cowardly character because of protecting his son too much.

Mu Qiangguo naturally thought of it, and finally nodded in agreement.

Mu Xibao, who had always been obedient and silent, listened curiously to what his father and father said. It was too profound for him to understand, so he didn't know that his father and father planned to exercise his courage since childhood.

I don't know if I can go home when I go out this time. Mu Qiangguo puts many things in the house into the space and puts away the big bed and cabinet. I'm afraid that if someone he knows really comes in, he will be suspicious.

After the two finished packing, they began to think about how to take their son out again. The snow was still falling outside, and the temperature was unknown how many degrees colder than the room. If they went out with their arms on their backs, the little guy's face would definitely be frozen.

"Didn't the family buy an extra-large waterproof suit last time?" Shen Xi said.

"I'm going to find it out, I remember it seems to be in the cabinet in the study." Mu Qiangguo also understood Shen Xi's thoughts, and ran to the room to search for it.

With the assistance of Shen Xi, Mu Qiangguo tied his son to his chest with a backpack, added a thicker blanket on the outside, put on a small hat, small earmuffs, and a small breathable mask for his son, and finally put on a waterproof mask. Even if Xuepiao melted water on his body, he couldn't penetrate it, and his son would definitely not be cold anymore.

Mu Xibao moved back and forth on his father's body, wearing too thick clothes and being tied up was uncomfortable at all, pulling the waterproof suit that blocked his eyes with his little hands, he said dissatisfiedly: "Dad"

Mu Qiangguo opened his clothes a little, exposing his son's little head.

"Let's go." After everything was ready, Mu Qiangguo and Shen Xi each carried a hiking bag, which contained two packs of dry food and urgently needed daily necessities, and walked out of the house reluctantly, not knowing when they would come back.

The elevator on the floor stopped a long time ago, and the two could only walk down the stairs one by one. There was a lot of discarded garbage in the corridor, and the cleaners hadn't cleaned it for a long time.

When I got down to the fourth floor, I met Su Zi who was rushing up. He looked a bit sloppy, but he was quite energetic, and walked up happily with a big bag of things.

"Brother Qiang." Su Zi was also surprised when he saw Mu Qiangguo and Shen Xi, "You and your family are going out."

Mu Qiangguo nodded, "Suzi, where are you from?"

"I—" Su Zi hugged the bag tightly on his body, "I—, I'm fine, I just went out to get some things."

Mu Qiangguo felt that Su Zi had changed, and looked at him with vigilance.

"Brother Qiang, it's okay, I'll go home first." Su Zi didn't wait for Mu Qiangguo's answer, and ran upstairs, and soon he lost sight of anyone.

"He smells like blood." Shen Xi caught a glimpse of the blood on his sleeve just now when Su Zi passed by him.

"En." Mu Qiangguo also smelled it. After he and Shen Xi practiced the exercises, their five senses became very sensitive.However, they don't care about other people's affairs, which adds to the trouble.

After going out, the two went to the underground parking lot. Taking advantage of no one else around, they put their car into the space.

On the road, the snow on the ground was too thick, and the two walked a little hard wearing military boots. Looking around at the dilapidated shops, many signboards hung precariously on the walls, and there was no such bustling and beautiful scene earlier, both of them felt a little heavy in their hearts .

"Father, there is Huahua." Only the little guy in Mu Qiangguo's arms was not affected, his little head was exposed to the outside looking at the snowflakes floating in the sky, his little face was flushed and he was very excited.

After being made such a fuss by their son, the two of them felt a little better.

"Someone is coming." Hearing the sound of footsteps drifting from the other side of the street, Shen Xi got closer and closer to them, obviously coming towards them.

"Baby, stay still." Mu Qiangguo touched his son's head, and pulled his clothes to cover him.

Mu Xibao listened to his father's words and remained silent.

The people who made the sound of footsteps turned out from the alley, and also found Mu Qiangguo and Shen Xi.
