Half an hour later, a group of people finally came to a small alley narrower than a one-way street, and in front of them was his home.
The still-hot sun was blocked by the flourishing acacia trees on both sides of the road, leaving comfortable coolness. The sun turned into mottled tree shadows through the crisscrossed branches and projected on the road, flickering and flickering, dazed the time, and the sound of cicadas, all of these made the tired body and mind return to peace.
“It’s really a good place.” Guan Zhengwu suddenly came to such a sentence, the tone of voice is like a normal person.
“This is really the most tortuous trip I have ever experience in returning home. If I use novels to describe this trip, I think it will definitely take 100 chapters to describe.” Standing at the entrance of the alley, Wu Gang had mixed feelings.
He was familiar with entering the community, and soon he saw the old-fashioned four-story unit building that he could no longer be familiar with. He went up to the second floor and came to the door, but he did not rush to use the unlocking technique, because finally there was a door that he could open with the key.
“Or knock?” He felt that at this moment, the warmth of opened the door by the family affirmed to be great.
One, two, three.
Wu Gang waited expectantly for the familiar sound of opening the door. However, after a long time, there was no movement in the room.
Three more knocks, still silent.
The atmosphere in the corridor was very depressing, and everyone looked at Wu Gang nervously.
Three times and three times, “Mom, I’m back!” Wu Gang suddenly panicked. This kind of panic may only be comparable to the first time the fetus leaves the amniotic fluid and the first time people who cannot swim choke.
Turn the key and push the door into the living room. Many boxes of instant noodles are stacked in the living room. The purified water bucket is also neatly arranged like the gospel of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
However, there was no one.
Wu Gang only felt desperate, the whole person was completely sluggish. “This is impossible. How can there be no one? On the last phone call, everyone stayed at home.”
A soft hand took his arm. It was Li Jia, but Wu Gang did not see her worried look. He rushed into the bedroom, the kitchen, and the bathroom like crazy.
Every room was stuffed with all kinds of food and water, but there was no one.
Wu Gang suddenly felt that even if he had 100 strength attributes, he could not support his limp legs at this moment. He collapsed and sat on the ground, looking at the carton piled on the roof and muttering, “How could this happen?”
It turns out that after people’s emotions reach their acme, there is no distinction between joys and sorrows. Wu Gang laughs in his mouth, but his eyebrows are angry expressions. Tears in his eyes are the same as crying.
Did he try his best to bring his relatives together and finally come to such an end?
Is it true that his flow system can save the survivors he meets but can’t save his relatives?
Pain, regret, and confusion filled his heart.
Then, a drunk middle-aged man came in from the gate and looked at the room full of people, squinting for half a day.
“Who are you and what are you doing in my house?” His words seemed a bit loud-tongued because of the effect of alcohol.
But it was this vague remark that tricked Wu Gang directly from the ground. He pushed through the crowd and saw a familiar face with glasses.
“Yo! My son is back!” The man turned and went out, muttering, “I’ll go upstairs and tell your mother.”
How could Wu Gang let him run out? He was afraid that this was the illusion brought by the system flow. He stepped forward to grab his father and roared with all his strength, “Dad! You didn’t stay at home, where have you been?!!”
The roar was really loud. The house shook and the birds flew away, shaking off his father’s glasses.
His father held his glasses and said, “why are you yelling at your father? This room is full of materials. Where do people sleep? We are at the upstairs Lao Wang’s house and there is a mahjong machine. You must come up quickly. If you want to come back later, your mother and your grandmother will go out to find you.”
“How are my mother and others?” Wu Gang asked with fear.
“Well, your grandmother is a little high in blood pressure and blood sugar these two days because there is no drug at home, but your grandmother won’t let me go out to look for the medicine.” His father said.
Wu Gang finally completely relaxed when he heard this. “Dad, when you go upstairs, at least you leave a note. Look at me, I was scared out of my heart disease.”
“Usually there are people in the room. Today, your grandfather can’t wait for you. I accompanied him to drink a few cups.” His father said, turning his attention to other people in the room.
“Is this all…?”
“These are all survivors I met when I came back all the way.” Wu Gang scanned the crowd and expressed his gratitude.
Wu Gang’s father, with a straight face and no more drunkenness, bowed deeply to everyone. “Thank you for bringing my son back safely. I, Wu Lixing, am so grateful. Thank you.”
The crowd hurriedly did the same one after another.
Wang Dahao held Wu Lixing up, looking ashamed. “Uncle Wu, you are too kind. In fact, Angkor helps us to get here safely.”
Wu Lixing laughed, “you are really modest. Don’t I know my own children yet? he can’t even run a kilometer.”
“All right, Dad, don’t expose my old background. Can you stop scolding your children in front of others?” Wu Gang said that and then he called everyone upstairs to prepare for dinner.
Lao Wang’s house on the third floor.
All of the five relatives were here and all were in front of mahjong tables.
“Mom, I’m back.” Standing at the door, Wu Gang’s voice trembled a little. On weekdays, his mother asked him when he came home. For more than 20 years, this was the first time he opened his mouth first.
A warm hug, and then a few people instantly surrounded Wu Gang to care about his situation, while the other people were jealous of this.
Half an hour later,
Cold dishes and hot dishes were served one after another. White chopped chicken, potatoes and beef, chopped pepper elbow flower, squirrelfish… Wu Gang took out almost all the best stocks in his backpack.
More than 20 people were sitting in the dining room and the living room. Although they had their own regrets, their uncontrollable appetite was the same. There is nothing happier than a hot meal after starving continuously and eating fast food for several days.
Before the meal, Wu Gang stood up and looked at these faces, who had known each other for a long time but were better than old friends, and made a silent decision.
“When this meal is over, we will all make a statistic, and then search and rescue everyone’s relatives and friends in the order of distance. I can’t be the only one who has a family. Does everyone agree?”
When this was over, the crowd was shocked, but then the eyes of several people dimmed because they knew that even with Wu Gang’s promise, which was bound to be realized, they could no longer find their relatives.
Liu Ruyun’s eyes have not changed from the beginning. She looked at him with a smile and did not know what she was thinking.
“Angkor!” At this moment, Su Junjie stood up excitedly. His eyes turned red instantly. He stammered for half a day and could not speak. Finally, he swallowed his spittle before saying, “Angkor, if… if you can save my parents, I, Su Junjie, will die for you in this life!”
Wu Gang smiled and waved his hand. “this is what I should have done. There is no need to say something like that.”
Then he turned to Wang Dabiao and said, “Dao Biao, do you remember how many levels would be able to fly in WOW?”
Wang Dabiao was sad and did not know why Wu Gang asked this. He casually replied, “Level 60.”
Wu Gang smiled cunningly. “Hey hey, that’s right, but we can’t say for sure in this system flow. We try our best to kill zombies if we get a flying mount-”
“Shall we go to the coast and find your parents?”
“Angkor!!!” Now Wang Dabiao also stood up. He wanted to copy Su Junjie’s words just now but found that he could not say anything at the moment.
He made a bow with hands folded in front of Wu Gang and said, “Angkor!!!” Then quickly curled his head and secretly wiped his eyes on his sleeve.
“All right, I have promised this meal many times. Everyone is hungry. Let’s eat!”
Wu Lixing was also stunned by Wu Gang’s call. He poked at his wife next to him and whispered, “Why is my son more domineering than your director when he just spoke?”
Then she gave him a white look. “That’s just what you haven’t found before.”
