The protagonist of the story in "The Western Regions" is Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang is 28 years old, he opened a shop in Baoqing City, and he is living well, but he has never married and is often talked about.When he received a call from the police, he was surprised, because he never caused trouble, never entered a police station, and basically never dealt with the police.

But what the policeman said next stunned him.

His parents died in a car accident at [-] a.m., police said.

Holding the phone, he opened his mouth for a long time and didn't know what to say.To be honest, like most people, he usually thinks his parents are nagging, and he hangs up the phone in a hurry without saying a few words.But, say he doesn't love them?Certainly not.It's just that after knowing each other for so many years, from childhood to adulthood, I must have been bored.

When his parents left suddenly, he went to the police station in a panic, and then to the hospital. He didn't have time to cry bitterly, and all the heartache was buried in his heart.His parents had no relatives, but he was an only child.The funeral had to be handled by him alone.After busy work, my feet couldn't even touch the ground. After finally leaving the funeral, I returned home, facing the empty house, and burst into tears.

Parents left nothing behind.Zhang Yang kept saying that he didn't need them to save money for him, he just wanted to live comfortably, and he was afraid that the work of the two of them would not be enough, so he would send some money back after a while.It's just that people don't go back very often.When counting the belongings of his parents, he found that his parents did not leave him any money, and put all the money in the trust for Zhang Yang's future children.After Zhang Yang found out this, he smiled and couldn't help crying.

His parents had been looking forward to him getting married.

After all, he left a house for him.The house was in the outskirts of the city. When I bought it, the house price was not as expensive as it is now. The two gritted their teeth and borrowed a sum of money to buy it. Now it seems that they have made a lot of money.But Zhang Yang is unwilling to sell, even though he will not go back to live.Go to that room and count things, and take back what you can take back, and cover it with a dustproof cloth if you can't take it back.

Liu Miaomiao, the clerk of the shop, helped him clean up. He also helped with the previous funeral. Otherwise, Zhang Yang didn't know if he could finish it.There are too many things.

Suddenly a voice came from the door, "Zhang Yang?"

Zhang Yang looked up and found a young man in jeans standing at the door. His hair was cut short, but his face was rather handsome, with red lips and white teeth.

After watching for a long time, Zhang Yang vaguely recognized who this person was.

"Akang." Zhang Yang shouted in surprise.

A Kang was his childhood friend, and the two went to elementary school, junior high school, and high school together.Until college, Zhang Yang and A Kang went to different places.In the beginning, the two had occasional contacts, but later, Zhang Yang wanted to live away from his parents, and went to practice during the winter and summer vacations, too lazy to come back, and gradually the two lost contact.After graduation, Zhang Yang worked with him for a few years, opened a shop with the money he had saved, and rarely went back, and completely lost contact with A Kang.

Akang walked in and said, "I heard that my uncle and aunt had an accident, and I don't know if you've come back. I want to come and have a look."

Zhang Yang licked his dry lips, shook his head at A-Kang, and said, "The funeral has already taken place."

The three went to eat something together.During the meal, Zhang Yang learned that Akang had been staying in Qingchun for several years.Qingchun is a good place, warm in winter and cool in summer, it is indeed livable.

"Do you have a girlfriend?" Zhang Yang asked.

Akang smiled shyly and said, "I'm already married."

Zhang Yang was a little surprised, then patted his head and said, "Look at my head, it's already 28, it's time to end it."

Akon smiled and said, "What about you?"

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "I'm still alone."

Several people chatted for a while, and then returned to the house.Everything else was cleaned up, except for the parents' bedroom.Zhang Yang went in alone, he didn't dare to stay longer, he was afraid of getting emotional, so he cleaned up quickly.Both parents are civil servants, and there are not many things in the bedroom.Mom doesn't like makeup very much, but there are still basic cosmetics. He puts everything in a small bag and prepares to take it home.There were some books and magazines in the drawers of the desk. He rummaged through them, but couldn't find anything like a diary, so he planned to stuff the drawers in, keep them as they were, and prepare to leave.At this moment, his hand in the drawer suddenly touched something on it, not like wood, but like paper.

He touched it and found that it was really a roll of paper, but it felt different from ordinary paper.

He groped hard, took it off, and took it out to see that it was really a piece of kraft paper.

Why is there a piece of brown paper in the drawer?

Zhang Yang opened it, but saw densely packed routes and various signs drawn on the kraft paper.

This is a map?

Zhang Yang was surprised.How come there is a map like this in the parents' house?

At this time, A Kang knocked on the door outside and asked, "Zhang Yang, are you okay?"

Probably because he stayed at home for too long, so I thought he was feeling sad, so come and ask.

Zhang Yang hurriedly stood up, went to the door and opened it, and said, "It's okay."

A Kang's eyes fell on the map in Zhang Yang's hand, and he asked in surprise, "What is this?"

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "I don't know what it is. I found it from my parents' desk. It looks like a map."

Akang took a look and asked with a smile, "Isn't this a treasure map?"

Liu Miaomiao who heard the words "treasure map" ran over quickly, "What? Treasure map? Where can I see it?"

A Kang handed him the kraft paper in his hand.

Liu Miaomiao held it in front of her eyes for a long time before she said, "Wow, it's really a treasure map! Boss, shall we go treasure hunting?"

Zhang Yang hit him hard and said, "Have you watched too many movies? You still have a treasure map!"

Liu Miaomiao stuck out her tongue and said, "Otherwise, how could this happen?"

Zhang Yang also frowned suspiciously.

Seeing this, Akang said: "Actually, why don't we go and have a look? It's not necessarily a real treasure hunt. It just so happens that my wife is on a business trip, and I'm fine these days, so I just plan to go for a walk. Why don't we go on a trip?" You, Zhang Yang, we haven't seen each other for so long, so we can play together for a few days."

Zhang Yang hesitated and said, "My shop in Baoqing is still open."

Liu Miaomiao said, "It's fine to just let Dahai watch there alone. It's not the peak season now, and there's no business."

Zhang Yang glanced at him and said, "You just don't want to go back to work, don't make excuses, just be lazy all day long."

Liu Miaomiao giggled.
