Upgrade with space

Chapter 82
"My child's father, this..." Ying's mother's voice trembled uncontrollably.Thinking of love to laugh, Ying's mother was even more frightened.Love to laugh can be said to be the lifeblood of husband and wife.Now, not only may he be hurt, but even his love to laugh seems to be missed.How can this make mother Ying not feel scared?
"Don't worry, it looks like we're still safe now." Dad Ying put his arms around his wife's trembling shoulders and comforted her softly, "Besides, the pills Xiao'er gave and this mysterious helmet can protect us to a large extent." Safe. Also, our two small spaces can also be used. Important things can be put in it right now, and some medicines that are usually used can also be placed in it. Food can’t be ignored either...”

Listening to Dad Ying's eloquent talk, Ai Xiao felt as if he had suddenly broken into a world of novels.Why did my father suddenly seem to be unknown to me?
"Dad?" Ai Xiao couldn't help interrupting his father's words. The more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong. No matter how he looked at it, he felt unreal. The father he knew since childhood was never like this.

"I..." Looking at the puzzled look in Aixiao's eyes, Dad Ying finally realized that what he said just now should have brought a great impact to his daughter.Think about it, it has been nearly 20 years. I have not said such thoughtful but passionate words for nearly 20 years. When will those passionate youth and those days full of vitality cease? ?It seems to be 18 years old, after my father passed away, right?Ying's father thought vaguely.

In a blink of an eye, the daughter is so old, and he has almost forgotten who he was when his father was still alive.Over the years, my wife's health has been getting worse year by year, the mother's eyes of hatred appear from time to time, and the daughter's incomprehension is not a flash, everything almost makes me forget "I was young, and Passionate years."

However, although he misses his previous life, it is different now. Dad Ying feels that he is more willing to live a plain and safe life than a passionate one.so,
"It's okay. Dad read it from a novel. How about it? Isn't it good?"

"Really?" Ai Xiao still felt that something was wrong, but her father would never lie to herself, and Ai Xiao could only attribute the strange feeling in her heart to the fact that she knew too much today, so she was a little suspicious.

"Yeah." Seeing Dad Ying's angry tone, Ai Xiao knew that Dad was unhappy, and she even had doubts about his words.Thinking about it too, if my parents doubted me, I would be unhappy too. Ai Xiao, who had figured it out consciously, immediately put this matter aside.No matter what, my father is the father I know well.

There are priorities, if you can’t tell the difference, then what is waiting for you is likely to be something you don’t want to meet, and the future life is likely to be lived in regret, this is love to laugh and don’t want to see Yes, so put these little ones aside for later.

"Mom, when did grandpa die?" Ai Xiao thinks this is very important.

"It was about the third year after the Civil War. I remember I was four years old."

"Mom was so young at that time, how could she remember so clearly?" Ai Xiao felt inconceivable, indeed, such a young girl shouldn't have such a deep and clear impression of these things.

"In fact, many other things that happened when I was a child are already blurred in my mother's memory now, but for "Ji Gu Chong", it seems to be engraved in her mind, and she can't forget it no matter what."

Seeing that he seemed to bring back bad memories of his mother, Ai laughed and scolded himself secretly, but continued to ask, "The third year after the end of the Civil War, isn't that 1952? Dad, when did Grandpa have something to do?" Died?" Ai Xiao asked Dad Ying again.

"In 1962, why are you asking this?" Dad Ying just asked, but immediately realized, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law died in 2002. Qunfang, how did your second uncle die? I remember that they also died suddenly for no reason. of."

"Let's think about it, my second uncle died when I was 24, and when my second aunt was 34, I was still wondering."

"That's one of them died in 1972 and the other in 1982."

"By the way, when Xiao'er was four years old, he was seriously ill at his father-in-law's house. Although his life was saved, one ear was broken. At that time, he was hospitalized for more than two months. The hospital didn't check him. What kind of disease did Chu Xiaoer get? I will never forget that year in my life, it was 1992."

"You mean that Xiao'er might have been hit by the "Ji Gu worm" that time? And if it wasn't for Xiao'er, my parents might have been included in the death list by the murderer behind the scenes that year?"

"What do you think?"

"But isn't "Ji Gu worm" unsolvable? Then why am I still alive and well?" Ai Xiao asked the question in his heart.

"However, that year you did crawl out of your ears, because it was not a strip, but a ball, and it died after it came out. I, your father and your grandparents, because I am very happy with you You don’t pay attention when your life is out of danger. Thinking about it now, it’s the “and Gu worm”, which turns into a ball for some reason, and then crawls out of your ears by itself.”

"Yes." Seeing Ai Xiao's distrustful eyes, Ying Ma nodded, "This, then it started in 1952, then 1962, 1972, 1982, 1992, 2002, and now 2012, it's terrible" And Gu worms "have never disappeared, but come out every ten years to return people."

"It looks right."

"However, from 1952 to the present 2012, there is an interval of 60 years. Who can persist for so many years, and it has always been once every ten years?"

"Is this related to the growth of the Gu insect?" Ying's mother guessed, "The "Gu insect" not only grows slowly, but also has no ability to harm people before it reaches adulthood. And other methods should not have the "Ji Gu insect" "The secret of murder is still smooth."

"It's very likely that's the case."

"However, if it was a person, then he must have been at least ten years old when he killed my grandpa. After so many years, that person must have been at least 70 years old. This year "Jigu" appeared on the Hawthorn Mountain in our house , then how many years does he have to persecute his uncle and aunt? Shouldn't he be in a hurry?" Ai Xiao asked again, and the mysterious rings one after another would burst Ai Xiao's brain.

"This..." Ying's father and Ying's mother were unable to give an explanation for the question Ai Xiao raised.Indeed, if you speculate according to Ai Xiao, shouldn't the murderer behind the scenes catch them all this time?After all, based on her age, she might not be able to wait for the next one, or even the next ten years.

"Mom and Dad, you forgot something." Ai Xiao suddenly thought of something,
"what?"

"This year, "Ji Gu worms" only appeared on my family's Hawthorn Mountain, but, parents, do you still remember? Those "Ji Gu worms" were not yet adults at that time, and..."

"Also, this year has only just begun,"

"Maybe it's not that she doesn't want to wipe us out again this year, but that he hasn't made a move at all, and he's still waiting for the "and Gu worm" to become an adult."

"Then how do you explain the appearance of "Ji Gu" on our Hawthorn Mountain?"

"Maybe it's because..." Dad Ying suddenly became intermittent, maybe it's been several times, but there may be no reason.

"Maybe it could be something?" Ying's mother would not listen to Ying's father talking about such an important matter.

"You have never been to Hawthorn Mountain before, so you don't know, I have never picked the tree that loves to laugh and pick hawthorn all these years, so..."

"So, those "and Gu worms" are not used to harm us now, they should be allowed to grow." Ying Ma finalized the case.

"So, if Ai Xiao and I didn't go to Hawthorn Mountain this year, then you still wouldn't pick that one Hawthorn tree this year, and those "and Gu insects will live well until they reach adulthood. Then, our family, maybe we should In addition to my brother, brother and sister, I went to meet the ancestors together? "Ying Ma's anger was about to burst out of her body.

"I……"

"Dad, can you tell me why you have never picked that hawthorn tree? I think it bears a lot of fruit and blooms a lot. It shouldn't be because it didn't grow fruit before, so you never picked it." Get closer?" Dad Ying said that he had never picked the fruit of that tree, and Ai Xiao was very surprised about this. "Also, even if you don't go to pick it, Dad, those who pick up the leaks shouldn't let go of the fruit-filled hawthorn tree, right?"

"It's not surprising. The tree is said to be an ancient tree that has grown for thousands of years, but it has never grown tall. I don't know when it started. Some people in the village spread that the tree is the tree god of the hawthorn tree. The harvested fruit cannot be picked, otherwise the person will be punished by the tree god."

"Dad, do you believe this too?"

"I don't believe it, but after I picked the fruit from that tree for the first time, your mother's illness suddenly worsened. So..." Both Ai Xiao and Ying's mother understood what Dad Ying didn't say.But, that's it.The doubts in the hearts of the two became even worse.

"Such a tree is called a sacred tree?" Ai Xiao only thought it was absurd. If there really is a sacred tree, then he should observe it carefully.It is nonsense to see if the sacred tree can really manifest itself or bring any benefits to him.

"Yes, if it is really a sacred tree, although I have never been to the Hawthorn Mountain at home, I should have heard of it. After all, this "sacred tree" grows on the mountain of our family. "Ying Ma also scoffed at this.However, it is because of himself that my husband would rather believe in the fact that the tree is really a sacred tree and stop picking the fruit on it. Ying's mother still feels warm in her heart about this.He no longer has any grudges about Dad Ying wasting so many hawthorn fruits over the years.
