I Am Your Father

It was rare to sleep soundly, and when the snow melted away, he opened his eyes again, more than half a month had passed.

"..." Unexpectedly, he could still wake up.

In other words, he never expected that the last layer of the floating door method that Fu E had taught him back then, which he had not been able to break through, would suddenly open just when his letter of incense was damaged and he was about to fall to his death. saved his life.

Perhaps this is not a coincidence, Fu E had hidden this way out for him in advance when he taught him the exercises.

And he never told him, presumably he didn't want him to come to this step seriously.

Thinking of Fu E's death, the corners of his lips twitched sharply, he coaxed and deceived him, and he only became his master for a day after being tricked, but he really gave him the care of his life.

And I don't know how long I slept, the sea of ​​blood in my memory is like yesterday, Li Zhi blinked his dry eyes, and it took a long time to realize that it was the kang that he was familiar with.

While rubbing the comfortable soft mattress under his palms, he still stared drowsily at the top of his head, subconsciously thinking, where is the cracked and moldy wall covering?Don't be eaten by his dreams again.

So he smacked his mouth twice with all his strength, Li Zhi was startled again, and felt the delicate touch on his lips, did he really eat it?

But he couldn't restrain himself from licking it again, the taste that had been numb for a long time seemed to gradually gather, and the sweet taste quickly penetrated into the bitter teeth.

It's sugar.

Li Zhi turned his head violently, the movement was so great that the little hand that was on his mouth hurriedly backed away, and with a "slap", a piece of candied lotus root sliced ​​by Bai Shuangshuang hit Li Zhi's slightly supported chest.

He quickly picked it up and stuffed it into his mouth. Hungry, he suddenly met a familiar little black face, as if startled by his sudden awakening, staring at him in a daze.

Li Zhi was the first to come back to his senses, before swallowing the lotus root slices, he said vaguely: "Smelly... brat?"

Wen Fei has taken him back?

"..." He probably held his favorite candied lotus root slices to his mouth for a long time, but unexpectedly it really woke him up. He, without blinking, seemed to be frozen.

The separation of more than half a year is indeed too long for the two fathers who have never been separated.

Especially when Li Goudan came back, he saw that he was half dead, guarding here almost every step of the way, giving him a taste of any delicious food, even though he didn't move except to breathe.

Compared with Li Goudan, Li Zhi seemed even less calm.

His limbs were still sore and limp, and he had suddenly pushed Li Goudan onto the kang, Li Zhi turned over and over to see that he had changed from his previous thin skin and tender flesh, but he was black and thin, obviously he had suffered all the wind and rain in Beizhou, With trembling lips, he began to pick off his clothes without saying a word.

He still remembered the heart-piercing scene of Li Goudan jumping off the Hue River, and then he was taken captive to Beizhou and chained outside the tent to be whipped. , he thought he was frightened, so he hastily lightened up a bit: "Let me take a look, what's wrong with you——"

Unexpectedly, before he finished his eager words, he was suddenly taken aback, staring straight at a long pink scar on Li Goudan's exposed belly.

That was clearly a whiplash.

Burning with rage, he shook his hands and wanted to continue scrolling up, but was forced by Li Goudan to pull away again, with such force that Li Zhi, who still had some strength in his hands and feet, staggered.

"Don't look."

Seeing Li Zhi being pushed and sitting there stunned, Li Goudan leaned forward again, clumsily hugged him, and patted him: "It's all good."

"..."

Li Zhi hugged him now, buried his head on his thin shoulders, not daring to let him see his wet eye sockets.

I really feel sorry that he obviously suffered, but in turn wants to comfort him.

It's not that he never thought that after he was rescued, no matter how distressed he was, he must not forget to teach him a lesson, so that he would never dare to stab him in the heart like Su Manggu did.

However, the father and son who reunited after a long absence did not say anything in the end, they just relied on each other as they did a long time ago, and seemed to be able to slowly lick and heal all the wounds of sorrow.

Until Li Zhi was pushed away again.

With tears still on his face, he saw an egg rolling out of Li Goudan's front which he had almost torn apart.

egg?

Seeing Li Goudan turned over hastily and covered it with the skirt of his clothes again, as if he was afraid that the egg would catch a cold, Li Zhi rubbed his eyes roughly this time, and took the opportunity to wipe away the remaining wetness from the corners of his eyes, thinking that he was dreaming.

But when he raised his eyes again, Li Goudan's back was still quietly arched in front of him.

"What are you... doing?" Li Zhiyi spoke with a slight nasal voice, raised his hand to smooth the messy hair on the back of his head, stabilized his emotions, and asked doubtfully, "And your father? Everyone else Where did it go?"

After a while, Li Goudan turned his head slightly and said in a muffled voice, "I want to hatch too."

"..."

Li Zhi looked at him dumbly: "What?"

"Daddy is feeding the chickens."

"..."

"Sister Amian brought freshly soaked candied lotus root slices early in the morning, and uncle went to deliver eggs to her—"

"Wait," Li Zhi interrupted Li Goudan in surprise, as if he had just regained his sanity from the dull pain just now, his expression inevitably changed back and forth in a complicated way, "Where did the chickens in our family...have eggs?"

How long has he been asleep?

As he said that, he didn't sit on the kang, his head fell to the ground in a daze, and he walked out the door with a disheveled face.

But when he reached the door, he froze again.

There was no trace of blood on the open space in front of the door, and it was cleaned the same as before he went out. In addition, there was a big wheeled cart full of gold, silver and various gadgets.

The sun was so brilliant that he thought he was dreaming again.

"This is a reward from the government for your meritorious service against the enemy, and... a thank you gift from the villagers."

Suddenly, a deep whisper that seemed to be suppressed by all means came to his ears, and he could still hear the other party's rapid panting, as if he rushed over as soon as he heard the sound.

"..." I don't know whether it was because of the great news that fell from the sky, or because of the voice that seemed to be parting from life and death too much, Li Zhizhi's heart was too sour, he paused for a long time, and finally turned his head.

Chao Sijie smiled: "It's...too polite."

"..." Si Jie looked at him, but didn't continue.

"Me, how long have I been asleep?" His eyes were flickering, and even Si Jie didn't dare to appreciate the light green and short brown of Si Jie's new body. He knew what he cared about, so he just changed the subject.

"Seventeen."

"I said why are you so hungry?" He laughed dumbly again, and Li Zhi scratched his head subconsciously, "I heard that you are feeding chickens, what kind of chickens are you, a beautiful and flowery head, you will still do this kind of work for me in the future—— "

Before he finished speaking, the wrist that was habitually stretched behind his head was firmly grasped.

"You have an injury there." Sure enough, Si Jie's tone sank a bit.

"This, isn't this good?" Li Zhi couldn't help feeling guilty, knowing that his decision to destroy Xinxiang was not within Si Jie's expectations, and he must have been frightened by him at the time.

"Okay?" Si Jie only asked in a low voice.

"Ah," Li Zhigai scratched his chin, "Look, I'm alive and well now, and our family is rich, I can eat at least eight bowls of rice later..."

"You just... saved your life." But Si Jie couldn't help but say, "Your letter incense has been completely destroyed, and every time you fall in love, you have to bear the same severe pain as that day, you really don't know?"

Of course he knew.

"No...you're still here?" Li Zhi stretched out his arms to hug him, and said honestly, "Actually, as soon as I saw you, I forgot the pain."

Unexpectedly, Si Jie took a step back with a slight frown, avoiding his approach.

Li Zhi stopped in the air with his arms stiff, and after a long while, seeing Si Jie's tense face, he suddenly understood that when Xinxiang was destroyed, he was holding him like this.

"Si Jie Jie," seeing him silent and deadlocked for a moment, Li Zhi thought again and again, this time tentatively hooking Si Jie's fingertips that were actually not healed, gently tracing the thick scab on it, and said pitifully, " Don't be angry, I'm... really dizzy now."

"...you are too hungry."

"..."

But Si Jie didn't break free this time, looked at him silently for a while, pulled him back with his back hand, and took Li Goudan who had been staring at them quietly with the other hand, and walked to the back of the house.

"Pick one."

I saw a spacious chicken coop built with bamboo weaving in the originally empty place behind the house. The chickens were fat and strong. At first glance, Li Zhi's neck was stretched. I can't imagine that such a wealthy scene came from his backyard. , and even though it was a chicken coop, it was tidy and tidy like he had never seen before. Even the male and female were carefully separated, and the heights of the troughs and sinks on both sides were different, neat and tidy.

There are also chicks that have just hatched, with milky yellow fluff, round pier, very cute.

Knowing that Si Jie meant to ask them to choose the food for tonight, he couldn't help swallowing, and looked at it with his hands on his hips, not forgetting to tease Li Goudan, who was staring at him intently, and pointed at the little fluffy dog. : "How about eating it tonight?"

Sure enough, he shook his head immediately when he saw Li Goudan.

With the stark contrast of the little Zuo Xianwang, Li Zhi now thinks that Li Goudan is really cute and cute no matter how he looks at him. Fortunately, he is still a childlike innocence, and even smiled kindly: "Aren't you the most fond of eating chicken?" ? Why are you so reluctant?”

"..." Li Goudan looked at Li Zhi strangely when he heard the words, as if looking at a fool, and said seriously: "Not enough to eat."

"..."

In the sudden silence, an inaudible chuckle came from beside him, like the sun shining through the gaps in the clouds.

some closing words

Damn, after thinking about it, I still plan to say a few more words. After all, this is the most difficult one among several books. It happens that many factors come together, and I almost give up.

Of course, the first sentence is the same, everyone
