I Thought I Was Straight - Chapter 154
Liao Yiqing looked at the book in his hand dumbfounded, while Yan Ge asked in the fairy gourd, “What are you looking at?”
“Huh? Nothing.” Hastily stuffing the book into the backpack, Liao Yiqing went out, went to the guest room and dragged Wang Chao who was still sleeping.
Then he dragged Wang Chao all the way to the outside of the temple master’s small courtyard, Liao Yiqing said to Wang Chao: “You wait here, let you go in and then go in.”
As he spoke, he opened the door and walked inside: “Master, I’m back! I brought you a gift!”
Liao Yiqing pushed open the door of the room, and saw the familiar Sanqing statue and the temple master sitting under it at first sight. Liao Yiqing showed a flattering smile, took out a smart phone and said, “Master, look what I brought you? A mobile phone! Master, I will teach you how to use it. From now on, no matter where I am, I can see Master and talk to Master at any time.” .”
The priest raised his eyelids, glanced at Liao Yiqing with a half-smile, and said, “Is it possible to ask Master for help at any time?”
“Then where can I do it?” Liao Yiqing said without blushing at all: “I am worried that Master will be bored in the mountains, and I want to help Master solve problems…”
“No need.” The viewer waved his hand, took out a mobile phone from his sleeve, and said, “I don’t need the mobile phone, but you can add a WeChat.”
Liao Yiqing: “…”
Liao Yiqing choked for a long time, unable to speak. It took a while to recover, and said: “Master, I brought a person back from outside…”
“Understood, Cangsong has already said that as a teacher, you have to meet the child before you can decide whether to keep him or not.” Guanzhu said.
“Oh, since Master knows everything, then I don’t have anything to say.” Liao Yiqing said: “Master, if you are not satisfied, just drive him away. Don’t worry about the disciple’s face.”
“When did Pindao ever care about other people’s face?” The temple master showed a disdainful expression, the age spots on his face became vivid, he got up, and said, “I called you here because I have something to tell you.”
“What’s the matter?” Liao Yiqing said respectfully, “Master, just tell me.”
“I can’t talk about orders.” The priest looked at the young Liao Yiqing, sighed softly, and said, “Your parents have passed away.”
Liao Yiqing was taken aback, then forced a smile and said: “Master, don’t be joking. This disciple entered Yinxian Temple at the age of three, and now he is nineteen years old. He never knew he had parents.”
“You didn’t jump out of a rock, how could you have no parents?” The temple master said with compassion: “Your biological parents sent you here when you were sixteen years old. At that time, you were three years old, thin, weak and sick. They saw It doesn’t look like a wealthy family, maybe only by sending you here will you have a chance of survival.”
“Then for so many years…” Liao Yiqing’s eyes were flushed, “Why haven’t they visited me once?”
“Alas.” The Master shook his head, “Who knows how the world will change? I tell you this because I don’t want you to think that you are an orphan for the rest of your life. As for whether you will go back to see your parents for the last time, it is up to you.” Make up your own mind. Go out, and if you decide to go, go to your elder brother.”
Yan Ge, who had been in the fairy gourd all the time, listened to the whole process, but he never expected such a thing to happen. Probably Liao Yiqing is a supporting role, so there is not much description of his life experience in the original book. Liao Yiqing went out out of his mind, and Yan Ge didn’t know how to comfort him. Let alone Liao Yiqing, even if it happened to him, he wouldn’t be too easy to look away.
Even though he had parents, he sent him away since he was a child, and he never saw him for more than ten years. By the time he knew that he still had parents, they had passed away.
Walking to the door, Wang Chao leaned over and asked, “Are you letting me in?”
Liao Yiqing glanced at him with a pale face, and left without saying a word. Wang Chao anxiously shouted from behind: “Will you let me in? What do you mean by not talking…”
Liao Yiqing blinked when he heard the laughter of the brothers and sisters inside when passing by the dining hall. Most of the disciples in Yinxian Temple have parents. When he was a child, he often saw the parents of some senior disciples come to visit them and bring them delicious food and new clothes. At that time, Liao Yiqing was very envious, but he comforted himself that as an orphan, he had enough to live and eat, and his master taught Taoism. He was already very lucky, so there was no need to envy others.
But now he knows that he also has parents. If the family is poor, he is not in good health and cannot support himself, so he will send himself here. He is not an unreasonable person, as long as he has time to come and see him…
He closed the door of the room, and Yan Ge floated out. Liao Yiqing lowered his head and turned aside to prevent Yan Ge from seeing his expression. Yan Ge said, “Do you want to go?”
“They may have forgotten me.” Liao Yiqing said, “What am I going to do?”
“It’s not that you are going to talk to them, but just to see. It’s not necessary for them to remember.” Yan Ge said, “Don’t you want to know what they look like?”
Liao Yiqing was a little annoyed and said, “How can you comfort people like this?”
Yan Ge: “I’m not comforting you, I’m just suggesting you. It’s okay if you don’t want to go, just stay here. When I cultivate the entity and can come out during the day, I’ll take you out to play. “
“When you cultivate a physical body, when will you wait?” Liao Yiqing was so old that he had only heard of a ghost who had been cultivated into a physical body in legends.
After being interrupted by Yan Ge, Liao Yiqing felt less uncomfortable. He rubbed his eyes, and said: “After all, they gave birth to me, and they sent me to the Taoist temple to give me a way to survive. I should send them the last way no matter what.”
Liao Yiqing stood up and said to Yan Ge, “Stay here and pack your things, I’ll go find Elder Brother.”
Yan Ge watched him push the door out, thinking with a puzzled expression, what the **** is he packing up?
The elder brother was meditating under the ancient pine in the temple. Seeing Liao Yiqing coming, he smiled and said: “It seems that you have made up your mind. Master asked me to tell you your parents’ address and other information.”
Liao Yiqing’s parents are from the neighboring province, and their family lives in a mountain village. When he was driving into the mountains, the driver told him that because the young people went out to work and earned money, they bought houses in the city, and the elderly in the village also went there. Now there are no two families left in the village.
When the car reached the small river below the village, it couldn’t get in. The driver pointed to the front and said, “Go straight ahead and you’ll get there. Few people come to this ghostly place.”
Liao Yiqing thanked the driver, took off his shoes and walked across the river. Go straight ahead, gradually you can see some houses. Most of the houses are earth embryos, and the roads here are impassable. Even if you have money to buy bricks and tiles, you can’t send them in. He walked all the way, and the houses in the village were basically empty, and the places where no one lived seemed particularly dilapidated.
Until he saw a white hanging coin at the gate of a small yard, and then looked into the short yard, where there was a coffin. After finding the place, Liao Yiqing stood at the door and suddenly dared not go in.
At this time, the door of the earthen house in the yard opened, and a thin and small old woman who was bent almost ninety degrees came out tremblingly with a stick. She walked to the side of the coffin and reached out to touch the coffin. Suddenly feeling something, he turned his head and looked towards the gate of the yard.
Liao Yiqing just stood and watched. The old lady looked at Liao Yiqing for a while, and suddenly stretched out her hand to him excitedly, and walked towards him staggeringly.
Yan Ge said: “In the past, it will be bad for the old man if he falls.”
Liao Yiqing pushed the door and went in, and helped the grandmother. Grandma Lai raised her head, staring at Liao Yiqing unblinkingly with a pair of cloudy eyes, two lines of old tears flowed out, across the face covered with gullies.
Liao Yiqing said: “I am Liao Yiqing. I used to be called Wu Xiaobao. Wu Jianguo and Zhang Jinlan are my parents. Who are you?”
The old lady looked at Liao Yiqing, unable to cry. After hearing Liao Yiqing’s words, she grabbed Liao Yiqing’s hand with her skinny right hand and led him into the house.
Liao Yiqing followed her into the house. The old lady opened a box with peeling paint, took out a photo from it and handed it to Liao Yiqing, then looked at him eagerly.
It was a yellowed photo that looked old. Above are four people, an old woman, a young couple, and a child in the arms of the couple. There is a tear mole in the corner of the child’s eye, which is exactly the same as his.
Liao Yiqing’s cheeks twitched, and he said with red eyes, “Are these my parents? Are you my grandma?”
The old grandma held Liao Yiqing’s hand and kept nodding.
“You are the only one left at home?” Liao Yiqing pointed to the door, “In the coffin outside, are… my parents?”
Grandma still nodded, Liao Yiqing blinked, tears rolled down and she couldn’t control it anymore. He sniffled his nose in a concealed manner, turned around and said, “I’ll go and have a look.”
Walking to the low and dark room, a coffin was placed quietly in the yard. Liao Yiqing walked over, put his hand on the coffin, and then pushed the coffin away. An unpleasant smell rushed over, and Liao Yiqing didn’t even blink to look at it. There were two people lying in the narrow coffin. They looked very old, and their bodies were full of traces of hardship.
After taking a deep look, Liao Yiqing closed the coffin, then turned to ask grandma standing in the corridor, “Why is there only one coffin?”
Grandma pointed at herself, Liao Yiqing frowned, and suddenly said, “You mean this is your coffin?”
Grandma nods.
Liao Yiqing closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, “I’ll buy another pair, you…”
He asked the grandmother, “It’s been so many years, why haven’t you guys ever visited me?”
The old grandma couldn’t speak, she reached out and tugged at Liao Yiqing’s sleeve, tears streaming down her face.
Forget it, Liao Yiqing told himself, what’s the point of asking this now? He pulled the old grandma’s hand off his sleeve and said, “Go back and rest, I’ll go shopping.”
After speaking, he turned around and ran out of the small courtyard as if he was running away. He had kung fu, and he ran very fast, and soon ran to the river. Looking at his own reflection in the river, Liao Yiqing reached out to wipe away his tears, but he couldn’t wipe them clean.
Yan Ge said, “Cry, there’s no one here.”
“But there are ghosts.” Liao Yiqing said viciously.
Yan Ge said: “Don’t be afraid of ghosts, I won’t laugh at you. You are already fine, and your parents sent you to the Taoist temple. At least you are doing well, unlike me who just died like this. So far, no family members have collected the bones.”
People are like this, when they hear that others are worse than themselves, they always feel much better. Liao Yiqing finally burst into tears, sobbing and choking, “You… don’t worry, I’ll collect your bones after I finish taking care of my parents’ affairs, woo woo woo…”
