Mysterious country
Chapter 365 The dark shadow at home
When Xia Qi came back again, his father had already come back, and his mother was also busy cooking in the kitchen. When she saw him coming in, she poked her head out of the kitchen and said bitterly:
"You brat, you still know how to come back. You haven't even called me recently."
"Isn't it because I have been too busy with work recently? I come back as soon as I have time."
"I'll take care of you after I finish cooking!"
Xia Qi smelled the aroma of vegetables and listened to the "buzzing" sound of the range hood. It was difficult for him to connect with the illusion.
Because this was so terrifying, he couldn't help but have a terrifying thought in his heart. Could the real world he thought be an illusion created by an awesome character?
Xia Xia Qi was startled by his idea. He quickly shook his head and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
His father saw that his face was not very good, so he asked in a low voice:
"What's wrong? Are you in trouble?"
"No, I just suddenly thought of something, it's nothing."
Xia Qi felt that the pressure on his father was already great enough, so he didn't want to make his father worry anymore, so he changed the subject and said:
"How are you doing lately? Has your salary been increased?"
"It's useless to say this."
His father did not answer Xia Qi, but pointed to his pocket and said:
"Give me a cigarette."
"My mother doesn't let you smoke at home." Although Xia Qi said this, she still took out the cigarettes from his pocket and handed them to his father's hand.
"The quality of these cigarettes is not bad. There is no need to smoke such expensive cigarettes. Keep the money to do something meaningful."
Xia Tianqi lit the cigarette in his mouth for his father, and Xia Tianqi himself took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and held it in his mouth:
"For example, what is more meaningful?"
"For example, fund a poor school, make a donation or something."
"Does this make sense? I think it would be better for me to fund your company so that they can give you a salary increase."
After Xia Qi finished speaking, he couldn't help but laugh "hehe".
After hearing this, his father clenched his fist fiercely at Xia Qi, but Xia Qi was not afraid at all, because his father was born with a good man's face, and he had never hit him since he was a child, so he was not afraid at all. Don't feel scared.
"Dad, please stop pretending to be cruel. Really, you are not suitable."
Xia Tian Qi also lit the cigarette in his mouth. His father pushed the ashtray in front of him and said in an unhappy tone:
"You have been spoiled by me. You have not been afraid of me since you were a child. I have already followed the example of other parents. The first time I found you smoking, I beat you all over the place.
I started smoking secretly when I was in junior high school. Your smoking age has almost caught up with mine. "
"You can't blame me entirely for smoking. Who gave you this gene? Experts have said that children's smoking has a lot to do with their parents."
Xia Qi looked aggrieved and put all the blame on his father.
"I didn't start smoking until you were born. If you don't learn anything, you won't learn anything. Don't rely on me."
While the father and son were chatting and spanking, Xia Qi's mother had already prepared the meal. Seeing that the living room was filled with smoke, which was even a bit choking, she immediately took off her apron and started shouting:
"You two little bastards, old bastards, how many times have I told you not to smoke in the house anymore...!!!"
Xia Qi was not happy about the reunion dinner because his mother talked so much about him. Of course, his father didn't have a good time either, and he was also nagged a lot.
Although the food was tasteless, Xia Qi felt that the atmosphere was pretty good. At least, it gave him a sense of the past.
Helping his mother clear the table, Xia Qi originally wanted to wash the dishes and chopsticks, but his mother didn't let him do it, saying that he was so busy at work on weekdays, so he could just leave this little work at home to his mother.
Watching his mother start to work in the kitchen, Xia Qi's vision gradually blurred. He didn't dare to stay in the kitchen anymore because he was afraid that he would cry and be seen by his mother.
After returning to the bedroom, Xia Qi closed the door and slowly sat down directly against the door panel.
When he returned home this time, he didn't know what was wrong with him. He was in an extremely bad mood, as if something even worse would happen to his family in the near future.
In fact, he could more or less predict what the worse things would be.
It was the three-dimensional formation that trapped his mother's soul and prevented other ghosts from approaching. If his grandfather didn't come back, I'm afraid this formation would stop completely.
He didn't dare to imagine that day coming, and he couldn't bear the consequences of the formation stopping.
Maybe he was in such a bad mood when he came back this time because he was subconsciously worried about the formation. But unfortunately, he couldn't find any solution except waiting for his grandfather to come back.
It was this sense of powerlessness, of being unable to do anything about potential dangers, that led to his terrible mood.
As powerful as his grandfather, he could change his fate against the will of heaven, seal his soul, and make his dead mother still alive as a living person, so that he could not touch the truth for a long time.
So what if there was someone more powerful than his grandfather? So is it possible to resurrect the dead and no longer be threatened by ghosts?
Xia Qi hopes to have such a powerful person, because this proves that if he can survive, he may reach this point in the future. At that time, he can resurrect his mother, and then all his friends will no longer suffer from ghosts.
Just like before, living a boring but comfortable and happy life in reality.
"call!"
Xia Qi took a long breath and tried not to be as depressed as he is now. After all, the road to the underworld is still long. If he is defeated by the pressure now, how will he go on in the future?
That glimmer of hope is like an oasis deep in the desert. Even if you know it is difficult to reach, you will still try your best in the process.
Standing up from the ground, Xia Tian Qi walked out of the bedroom and walked into the bathroom. The living room was completely plunged into darkness. It seemed that his father had already rested.
He didn't turn on the light in the living room, but walked directly into the bathroom, intending to wash his face and go to bed.
Opening the faucet, some warm water flowed out. Xia Qi lowered his head to wash away the anxiety on his face.
However, while he was washing his face, he vaguely heard a creaking sound on the door. He subconsciously looked at the frosted glass of the bathroom and saw a black figure standing straight outside the door!
"Dad?"
Xia Qi tried to call out, but the figure standing outside the door did not answer him. Instead, he suddenly disappeared.
