The Return of Gratitude Volume 2

Qin Xiu was woken up by the cold. When he woke up, he was lying down in a cave. When he opened his eyes, he saw the crackling and flickering flames. The dog pounced on shit, only to realize that his hands and feet were tied.The polar bear struggled a few times, and the ordinary rope couldn't trap him at all, but this time he couldn't break free. He looked down and saw the UIAA certification mark on the rope!

"Don't waste your efforts, it's something certified by the International Mountaineering Association, you can't earn it." The old guy's leisurely voice came from the sound of beeping firewood.

Qin Xiu gritted his teeth angrily and looked up at Sting, who was eating ham and adding firewood to the campfire opposite the campfire.

"Are you hungry, have a piece?" Sting shook the ham in his hand, and seeing that the handsome Bingshan didn't refuse, he threw a piece across the bonfire.

While eating, Sting read the newspaper by the light of the fire. After eating for a while, he suddenly remembered that Qin Xiu couldn't peel and eat ham because his hands and feet were bound. He quickly put down the newspaper and stretched his neck to look at the other side of the campfire.

Qin Xiu still maintained the posture of throwing himself on the ground, wriggling like a giant caterpillar and approaching the ham on the ground, then grinning his teeth and tearing the package of the ham with difficulty, grinning like a wild beast , the image of the handsome man was shattered.Sting suddenly felt a little sorry, and thought that this guy had too much self-esteem, and he refused to ask for help if he couldn't eat.The old guy coughed, got up and walked around: "Human beings are stupid, they can't do anything without hands..."

He squatted down to help Qin Xiu peel the ham, but he didn't notice the sharp eyes of the beautiful iceberg. In the next second, Sting was tripped by Qin Xiu's legs and fell to the ground. Two lines of nosebleeds dripped in an instant. down.

Only then did Qin Xiu sit up leaning against the cave wall in relief, and sneered with his chin raised, "The ham is full of nosebleeds, it's so dirty, I won't eat it."

The old vicious dog got up from the ground and immediately counterattacked. Qin Xiu had already prepared himself, and even though his feet were still tied, he kicked Sting accurately in the stomach.

This scene ends with Uncle Sting clutching his butt that was almost burned by the bonfire, rubbing desperately on the cave wall.

10 minute later.

Qin Xiu was tied up in two more circles, like a half-stripped mummy, Uncle Sting said while being tied up, "Don't blame me, I have no choice." After a pause, his voice lowered, "You You should already know who I am."

Qin Xiu's expression became very cold, and he said in his heart that I don't want to know at all.

Uncle Sting took a newspaper and put it on Qin Xiu's lap, clapped his hands and stood up: "Don't worry, once I get Shen Che away, I will naturally let you go."

Qin Xiu's gaze fell on the newspaper coldly: "Since you abandoned him at the beginning, why bother to snatch him from me now?"

Uncle Sting's expression was gloomy: "...I didn't abandon him."

Qin Xiu snorted coldly, bowed his head and said, "Turn over. This page is finished."

Uncle Sting came over to change the side for him, squatted aside and looked at Qin Xiu who was seriously reading the newspaper, and finally couldn't hold back after reading for a while: "Don't you ask me why?"

Qin Xiu was working on CROSSWORD, and he was muttering something, so he ignored him at all.

The old guy held back for more than ten minutes, and HOLD couldn't help opening his mouth: "I am indeed an unqualified father, but I really didn't abandon him... No one told me about his birth..."

Qin Xiu lowered his head and fixed his gaze, but he still didn't say anything.

Steen sat down behind the campfire.He has been a restless spirit dog tribe since he was a child. At that time, the spirit dog tribe was more closed than it is now. There was an iron rule in the tribe that the spirit dog tribe should not have too close contact with humans, but he was attracted by the colorful world of human beings. .

Sting looked at the jumping bonfire and smiled, remembering the first pop music tape he bought secretly. At noon, he sneaked into the broadcasting room of the clan association, connected the speaker and played it for the whole village to listen to.The elders of the clan association were so angry that they almost broke his legs.He was lying on the bed with his legs limping, unable to understand, why do people regard such beautiful songs as scourges?

In the school of the Spirit Dog Clan, the teacher was still explaining Newton's three theorems. He looked at the sky outside the window and didn't care about listening to the class. Humans have already landed on the moon, but what they learned were all outdated things.

At that time, he would run to Linggou Mountain every day after class, looking at the town of Linggou at his feet, which is the world of human beings.When he was five years old, Linggou Town built a straight road leading into the city. When he was ten years old, Linggou Town had the first Kodak photo studio and the first Paradise Cinema. A tall signal tower has been erected on the back mountain of Dog Town, and it seems that you can hear the ringing of mobile phones one after another with your ears up.Spirit Dog Town grew taller day by day, but when he looked back, Spirit Dog Village was still the same as it was many years ago.

At the age of 16, he packed his bags and left Spirit Dog Village and Spirit Dog Town humming a song "MOONRIVER". He wanted to go to the outside world.

Twodrifter off to see the world.

Thereis such a lot of world to see.

Great lyrics, too bad he doesn't have a HuckleBerry Friend, but he thinks he'll find it, out there.

Sitting on a human bus, the driver played a song "Red River Valley". He chatted with the uncle driver all the way. The uncle driver told him that this type of music is called country music, and it came from the United States. The uncle driver said that when he entered the city, he Just play "RedRiverValley", and "TakeMeHomeCountryRoad" when returning to Spirit Dog Town.He lay on the car window, and in the brisk rhythm of the harmonica, he felt as if he had wings and could fly wherever he wanted.

"Take Me Home Country Road" is also very good. One day he will drive his car and listen to this song on a sunny road full of lemon trees in this world. It may be the United States, but it will never be the village of spirit dogs.

Farewell to Spirit Dog Village, I will not miss you.

At that time, the household registration management in human society was not very standardized. He quickly found a loophole to take advantage of. With his own efforts, he was admitted to high school, university, and went abroad for further studies. He went to the country that sent humans to the moon and brought country music. To all parts of the world, the country called the United States.

He has an English name, what is his Chinese name, anyway, it was chosen by the patriarch, and he has long forgotten.The world of human beings is so wonderful that people can't handle it. He listened to country, rock, and jazz, and finally walked into Carnegie Hall in full clothes, listening to Mahler's "Song of the Earth" performed by Abbado conducting the Berlin Philharmonic, and All well-dressed classical music lovers shouted BRAVO and got up and applauded.

He's energetic, driven, charismatic, always surrounded by beautiful women, and falls cheesily in love, as in all romance novel romance movies.

"With a girl named Alicia." Sting broke off a dead branch and threw it into the fire.

Qin Xiu didn't make a sound, there was no doubt that it was a human woman.This old guy never regarded himself as a member of the spirit dog tribe, and of course he had to talk to humans when he was in love.

"I didn't tell him my identity, I don't think it's important," Sting said slowly, "We got engaged, and later..." There was a long silence at this point, "Later she found out my identity."

Qin Xiu looked up at the other party.

"Ordinary people can't accept the fact that she has a serious mental problem and has been living in a nursing home since then. Every time I visit her, she yells at me." Sting stared at the old man With a high flame, the voice sank, "I ruined her life."

The cave was quiet again, only the sound of firewood being peeled and pecked. "What happened later?" Qin Xiu asked.

"Because of this incident, I was expelled from the spirit dog clan, and I could never return to the clan for the rest of my life." Sting said calmly, "I finally began to understand why the clan has a rule of avoiding the world, and why the patriarch strictly forbids us to get too close to humans. Later... I met Archer's mother and spent the most peaceful and beautiful days in my life. She was pregnant with Archer but didn't tell me. She only left me a breakup letter and went back to Spirit Dog Town alone. I can understand this, because I want my child because she loves me, but as a mother, she must hope that her son will not repeat the mistakes of his father." Sting raised his head and looked at Qin Xiu who was frowning slightly , "It was a long time before I knew that I had such a son, and that my son didn't even know that his father was alive."

"Why didn't you tell Shen Che?" Qin Xiu asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know how to tell him." The old guy shook his head helplessly, "He will definitely blame me, and I don't want him to know that he has such a bad father, as long as I can do something for him, as long as I can Seeing him living a good life...for so many years, it's time for me to make up for him."

Qin Xiu didn't say a word, he saw this old guy who was energetic and funny suddenly looked ten years old in front of him, he knew that this person was very guilty and wanted to be reunited with his son, he wanted to fight with this person, I wanted to say, "If you take him away, what should I do?" But no matter how annoying this guy is, he is Shen Che's father after all. He couldn't say such selfish words, and finally he could only say: "I'm different from you. , I know his identity as a spirit dog clan, and I accept it."

"You're so naive," Sting smiled wryly, "I was just as naive as you at that time. I thought I could keep a secret for the rest of my life, so wouldn't I be no different from an ordinary person, but fate won't listen to you. You guys It may be very good now, but you don't know what will happen in the future, and if you regret it at that time, the lives of both of you will be over."

Qin Xiu stared at the bonfire, pondered for a while, and said in a low voice: "A senior told me that people should live in the present, and I don't want to worry about the future." He leaned back on the rock wall, closed his eyes calmly, "You can take him away if you want to, if he wants to."

The old guy squinted his eyes and stared at the calm and calm polar bear: "You seem to have a plan in your chest? He will definitely look for you when he finds you missing, but he will give up after a long time."

Qin Xiu didn't speak, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.Fool, he has been looking for me for seven years.
