Chapter 479: The Great Empire 5
Chapter 479: The Great Empire 5
"Are you talking to me? Who are you?" Looking at the two little boys, a little girl and a dog behind him, for some reason, there was a sentence in Guangzhi's heart that kept reminding himself.
“They are the most important people to you!”
He didn't know why such words popped up in his mind.
"It's me! Dad!" Xiaoxin shouted again.
"What a strange kid."
"It's not surprising at all. I'm Xiaoxin! He's my brother Xiaoxu! This is Xiaokui, and Xiaobai, we're a family!" Xiaoxin said, pointing at the others, while Mingxu stood aside holding Xiaokui.
"Oh..." At this time, Guangzhi seemed to have seen something and shouted anxiously: "Mom and Dad, where are you going!"
"You are the father!" Seeing this, Mingxu and Xiaoxin hurriedly grabbed Guangzhi, and put Xiaokui on the ground, staring at the scene blankly.
"Let me go. When did I become your father?"
"Dad, you are just trapped in the taste of the old times. Can you come back? Although the new era is not perfect yet, if we work hard as a family, we will eventually see a new world!" Mingxu looked at Guangzhi with tears in his eyes.
"Okay! Then let me let you smell how you smell now!" Xiaoxin's eyes rolled, he let go of Guangzhi, took off Guangzhi's shoes and put them in front of his nose.
"It stinks~" Guangzhi suddenly felt dizzy.
"You are our father. Do you still remember this smell? Remember it quickly, Dad." The two shouted, and Xiaokui was also babbling beside them.
Guangzhi closed his eyes, and his thoughts seemed to go back to the time when he sat on the back seat of his father's bicycle and rode the bicycle in the fields. Later, he went to high school and rode the bicycle in the fields. Later, he grew up again, entered university, and met many people. Later, he went to work in the provincial center alone, and then met his current partner. They had two children, no, three children, and adopted a dog named Xiaobai. The family lived happily together. They bought a house for the first time, and sitting in the yard looking at the new house, he felt indescribable pride in his heart.
Later, he worked hard just to give his wife and children a happier life, although he might not earn as much as Xiaoxu...
Growing up step by step, getting to know the wider world step by step, the process is tired, bitter, happy and sad, but when the moment comes to go home, when you see a light in the house turned on for you, when you hear the gentle words of your wife and children, "You're back", all the feelings disappear, leaving only a warm joy, which is a feeling of happiness.
Playing with children and accompanying them as they grow up, isn't this also a kind of happiness? One day, the children will grow up like themselves and have their own families. When everyone gathers together, it will also be a satisfying happiness~
Guangzhi was already in tears.
"Dad, did you recognize us?" Seeing Guangzhi like this, Mingxu and Xiaoxin asked in a low voice.
"Yeah." Guangzhi nodded and gently hugged the two children. Xiaokui and Xiaobai also came over and got into Guangzhi's arms.
Many times, childhood brings us not only fun, but also sadness and regret.
That is to say, with the existence of these emotions, everyone will want to go back to the past, back to that time, to realize their little wishes at that time. Unfortunately, regrets are regrets after all, and no matter how you make up for it, you can no longer go back to the past. When you see those things again, you may miss them and have regrets, but you can no longer find the feeling you once had.
Perhaps this is the meaning of growing up.
After waking up, Guangzhi began to understand this and let go of the hands holding the children: "Let's go, let's go wake up mom!"
"Yeah." The children nodded.
Guangzhi took them to the other side, which was decorated like a magical world. Meiya was standing in the center wearing a princess dress and holding a magic wand. She was waving the magic wand and was also trapped in the past.
He silently took out the camera and started filming Meiya.
"You guys!" Meiya was about to say something when she saw them, but Guangzhi didn't give her the chance to talk nonsense and directly blocked Meiya's nose with his stinky shoes.
Under the familiar smell, Meiya slowly recalled everything in the past, from going to school, entering the workplace, to meeting Guangzhi later, getting married, giving birth to Xiaoxu, Xiaoxin and Xiaokui, and having her own home, a happy home. Although Xiaoxin often makes her angry, Xiaoxu is really obedient, helping her take care of her younger siblings, subsidizing the family expenses, and buying cosmetics and clothes she likes from time to time...
Slowly, Meiya came to herself from her memories and looked at her family in front of her: "Husband, Xiaoxu, Xiaoxin, Xiaokui and Xiaobai. Ugh~" As she shouted, Meiya began to dry heave. The smell was too overpowering.
Mingxu put away the camera silently and pretended that he had done nothing.
"Dad, it seems that your shoes still smell that bad." Mingxu complained when looking at Meiya's expression.
"That's what I mean." Mei Ya did not forget to agree while she was retching.
"Is it really that smelly?" Guangzhi looked at Meiya suspiciously.
"It stinks." said Xiaoxin.
"Yeah." Xiaokui echoed.
"Woof woof~" Xiaobai agreed very much.
"... Meiya, change your clothes, let's run away quickly."
"it is good."
"Da da da~" A sound of footsteps was heard, and everyone turned to look, and saw Ajian walking over with a group of people.
"This is quite interesting." He was a little surprised to see Hiroshi and Misae recovering.
"It's you! We won't continue playing with you!" Guangzhi shouted immediately when he saw the people coming.
"I have something to tell you. Come with me." Looking at the family in front of him, Ajian shook his head. He knew that he had fewer bargaining chips to threaten them.
"Dad?" The family looked at Guangzhi and waited for his answer.
"Let's go." Guangzhi gritted his teeth and agreed. Then they followed Jian to the city.
"The sunset always makes people look back, so it is always dusk here." Looking at the scenery in the sky, Ajian explained slowly.
"It really doesn't look like we're inside a building here." Mingxu was also a little surprised when looking at the realistic scenery.
"It's like we've really gone back to the past." Meiya and the others have a better say about the past than they do. Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenes around her, Meiya murmured.
"It's just like the studio set up for a movie. No matter how similar it is, it's fake!" Guangzhi said without hesitation. That's right, fake is fake after all!
"You say so, but the residents here don't think so." Ajian shook his head.
"Do the people who come here really live here wholeheartedly?" Mingxu looked at Ajian and asked the key question.
"Of course. To us, this is the real world and the outside is fake. Because there is no smell outside." Ajian nodded.
"Really?" Mingxu asked again, "Are you really wholeheartedly doing this?"
"What do you want to express?" Ajian asked, looking at Mingxu.
"I think the old-time flavor of yours doesn't come out for no reason." Mingxu looked at the scene around him thoughtfully.
"That's right. The previous era was full of flavor, and I have successfully obtained that flavor here." Ajian said, looking around.
"How can it be!"
"In fact, you are also affected by that smell, aren't you?" Ajian asked back as he looked at Guangzhi who was refuting.
“...” Guangzhi and the others fell silent.
Mingxu didn't say anything else and just listened quietly. Apart from anything else, it would be nice to keep this place as a tourist attraction in the future.
"The residents here love this city deeply. And they live in a past that has never changed. So over a long time, this place has begun to be filled with the real taste of the past." Ajian said, looking at the people around him.
"No wonder this place is filled with nostalgic smells..." Guangzhi was stunned and quickly picked up his shoes and started to smoke: "It was a close call, I almost..."
"You guys go down." Ajian said to the group of people following behind him, and then took the Nohara family into his home.
"come in."
"What a retro apartment. Do you live here?"
"Yes."
"Don't take it lightly."
"rest assured."
Walking into the house, Chazi was sitting in front of the sewing machine, knitting clothes.
Seeing someone coming in, he stood up, and several people walked in and sat down around the table.
After pouring a cup of tea for a few people, Guangzhi looked at the scene around him and asked, "Are you a couple?"
"No." Ajian shook his head.
"..Are you living together?" Mingxu's mouth twitched. They really know how to play.
I turned on the TV and it was broadcasting a news program.
"...The nostalgic smell created by our city will soon be spread to the world from the J smell distribution device on the observation deck of the iron tower. Our smell index is about to reach the highest point. Next, we just need to wait for it to reach the highest point and press this button, and the nozzle on the iron tower will spray out the nostalgic smell, making everyone outside become a prisoner of the nostalgic smell..."
"Is this your purpose?" Mingxu asked, listening to the voice on TV.
"That's right. When I finish this cup of black tea, it will almost reach its climax over there, and I will go over and press the button. This time, even your smelly feet will not work." Ajian looked at them and said lightly.
"asshole!"
"It took us so much effort to get our whole family to recognize each other!"
"If you really want to live in the 21st century, then start taking action. Let me see how you get the future." Ajian looked at them and continued.
"How to get it? Get it this way!" Mingxu clenched his palms, and Sui Xin Iron appeared in his hand.
"Xiao Xu." Guangzhi stopped Mingxu and said, "Let us fight for the future ourselves!"
"Then let's go. If you delay any longer, you won't be able to save the world." Ah Jian continued to drink tea, but judging from his shaking hands, he didn't seem so calm either.
"Hmph!" Mingxu snorted coldly and put away the Sui Xin Iron.
"Nohara family, move out!" Hiroshi pulled everyone out.
"Then how do we fight this smell?" Meiya asked while running.
"Don't be afraid, there's no smell stronger than daddy's foot odor!" Shin-chan said without hesitation.
"Anyway, let's go first!"
"Go Nohara family!"
"come on!"
