The Path of Evolution

Have you seen the warm sunshine in winter and the flowing water in spring?

After bidding farewell to Xue Qing, it was still dark, and Zhao Hao rarely saw the sunset in winter.

There are looming red clouds in the distant sky. The warmth brought by the good weather has quietly passed away, and the remaining golden light will no longer exist. The black night is coming, and it is another icy night with the howling cold wind.

No single person likes this kind of cold and lonely night, and Zhao Hao doesn't like it either.

And he will spend such nights again and again in his life.

He recalled the first winter he spent with Weiwei, when they leaned together to keep each other warm.

There was no winter in his life at that time, and his body was filled with warmth from the inside out.

At that time, he and Weiwei had not done anything embarrassing. They held hands nervously that winter and watched "Game of Thrones" together. At that time, Zhao Hao was so angry that he memorized the oath of the night watchman:

The long night is coming, and I will keep watch from now on until I die.

I will take no wife, no fiefdom, no children.

I will not wear a crown or compete for honors.

I will do my duty faithfully, live and die.

I am the sword in the darkness, the guard on the wall, the fire against the cold, the light at dawn, the horn that wakes the sleeping, the shield that protects the kingdom.

I dedicate my life and honor to the Night's Watch, tonight and every night.

Time flies, and a few years pass in the blink of an eye.

The oath to guard the Great Wall failed to be fulfilled, and not marrying or having children became a reality.

Real life is always full of irony.

Zhao Hao lives like a night watchman brother, with countless winters in his future life.

Time can change many things, and even his sister-in-law advised him to look for a second spring.

But in the emotional field, Zhao Hao is still living in winter and doesn't know where his spring is.

Back home, Zhao Hao's mood improved.

Home is always a safe haven for wanderers.

Seeing his beaming parents, Zhao Hao was quickly infected and forgot about the loneliness in the cold wind on the street.

Dad Zhao has changed a lot. He used to have gray hair on his temples and was as weak as an old man in his fifties. After more than a month of nursing, the results are gratifying. The Zhao Zhicheng in front of him looks to be in his early forties, in the prime of life, and full of the charm of a man with a forty-one flower.

Su Yurong has also changed a lot. She is no longer as haggard as she was a few months ago. Putting aside the mental and financial pressure, she lives a leisurely life with a young mentality. She also becomes younger as a person, and has a unique charm.

"Dad, Mom, why are you so young? Can traveling really make people younger?" Zhao Hao was surprised. He remembered that he had a neighbor uncle who often traveled and looked younger than his peers.

"Traveling is one thing, but the main reason is that your "Liang Yi Divine Fist" is so amazing. It is much better than the Tai Chi practiced by the old lady in the park. I practice boxing once every morning and evening, and I can really feel the changes." Mr. Zhao Dad said happily.

"Yeah, after I practiced, I felt a lot younger. When your dad and I practiced together, there was something... Anyway, the effect was pretty good." My mother seemed a little shy after saying this.

The battle clothes of the evolved world, including living evolved creatures, cannot be brought to the earth, but things like combat skills and evolutionary techniques can be brought out. The last time the family got together, Zhao Hao gave "Liang Yi Divine Fist-Yin" to his mother. Unexpectedly, the old couple actually got good at it.

"Since practicing Liangyi Shenquan, I feel like I'm twenty years younger and have endless strength." Father Zhao coaxed, "Your mother and I went to Funan to climb Hengshan Mountain a few days ago. There was a The young tourist was throwing rubbish everywhere because he was a rare evolved person. I couldn't stand it, so I argued with him for a few words, but the guy got impatient and wanted to do something with me..."

"You're not injured, are you?" Zhao Hao was startled.

"Of course I'm fine, but something happened to that child. I punched and kicked him three times and he sent me to the hospital." Dad Zhao couldn't laugh or cry. "I didn't expect the Liangyi Divine Fist to be so powerful. Now I think about it and I'm a little scared."

Zhao Hao suddenly realized it and breathed a sigh of relief.

With advanced combat skills, you can take on leapfrogging challenges. Zhao Hao himself is a living example. When he was still a primitive evolutionist, he defeated the rare fourth and fifth elders of the Ghost Head Gang with his D-level mad fighting sword skills. The reason was simply that the two elders only knew E-level combat skills, so they suffered too much in actual combat.

After all, the Liangyi Divine Fist is an S-level magical skill. Even if Zhao Hao's parents are just primitive evolvers, it can easily deal with ordinary rare evolvers. If they fight in close combat, it is even possible to counterattack ordinary mutated evolvers.

After calming down, Zhao Hao Qian warned Wan: "Dad, Mom, your bodies are well restored now, but don't evolve impulsively. Give me a year, and I will definitely be able to find an advanced evolution technique."

"I know, why are you as verbose as your mother?" Father Zhao knew his son's thoughts and deliberately made the topic lighter: "We are coming back this time to celebrate the New Year. The weather is too cold and it is not convenient to travel. . When spring begins, your mother and I will continue to visit the great rivers and mountains of our motherland, and you don’t have to worry about us."

Zhao Hao looked at a booklet in the sea of ​​​​consciousness, feeling guilty.

Assassination swordsmanship: A-level combat skills...

This thing was exploded by him when he activated the White Deer Xiangrui on the fourth floor of the Tower of Life and Death.

The one who is so immortal is just a combat skill, which really can't be hurt.

There was not much time left for his father, and Zhao Hao was secretly worried. After the Spring Festival, he will cooperate deeply with Zhang Hongbin to hunt super creatures, hoping to develop advanced evolution techniques.

In the next two days, the family bought New Year's goods and had a great time.

In the past, Zhao Hao didn't like to participate in this kind of thing. His parents were busy with other things, so he would hide and play with his mobile phone or watch NBA broadcasts. Nowadays, Zhao Hao's mentality has changed, and it is also a pleasure to accompany his parents to buy groceries.

Having experienced loneliness and helplessness in the evolutionary world, he understood what is most precious.

On February 3, just a few days before the New Year, Zhao Hao, who was enjoying his life, received a call.

When he saw the caller ID, Zhao Hao felt like crying.

It's Xiao Duan calling again...

The word "again" contains a lot of information. Sometimes Zhao Hao can only reply in short paragraphs like this on WeChat: Sorry, I turned on mute when practicing and didn't hear the phone ring.

Among Zhao Hao's friends, Xiao Duan is the only one who makes him feel embarrassed.

He always felt that the child's sexual orientation was not normal, which put a lot of pressure on him.

Sometimes he can't help but think of a joke: I treat you as a friend, but you actually want to sleep with me...

For this reason, Zhao Hao deliberately kept a distance from Xiao Duan.

"Your phone has been ringing for a long time, why didn't you answer it?" Mom asked.

"This is from Xiao Duan." Zhao Hao smiled bitterly.

"Oh, is he that kid who is a little clingy?" The mother expressed her understanding and taught her son how to be a good person: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and that kid may just wish you a happy New Year and not have any evil intentions. You can just answer the phone. A piece of meat is indispensable. No matter how high you climb, you still have to be polite."

Zhao Hao, who was taught by his mother, had no choice but to answer the phone.

"Brother Hao, you finally answered my call." Xiao Duan on the other end of the phone choked up.

"Hey, Happy New Year. I wish you a happy new year. Say hello to your family for me. I wish you all the best in the new year and all your wishes will come true." Zhao Hao, who had just been educated, was quite polite. .

"Brother Hao, can you really make my wishes come true?" Xiao Duan climbed up the pole: "My mother must thank you in person, and my grandpa also wants to see you. Brother Hao, just make it happen for me. My mother recited it until my ears quivered."

This is not the first time that Xiao Duan has made such a request. Zhao Hao adopted a tactful approach today: "If there is a chance, we will have a long time together. When I go to the capital next time, I will definitely visit your home."

The short paragraph was shocking: "Brother Hao, you don't have to come to the capital. I arrived in Zhonghai yesterday."

Zhao Hao's chrysanthemums tightened: "What are you doing in Zhonghai?"

"Didn't I tell you that my father works at Zhonghai." Xiao Duan followed suit: "My mother is here too. Brother Hao, my father just took a vacation. He said he would pay a visit to your house. Is that okay?"

Zhao Hao refused in his heart, but then he thought, it was not a problem to delay like this. Xiao Duan's parents were present, just in time to settle the matter, so the naughty kid probably wouldn't show love to him in front of his parents.

So he said: "Where are you? I'm going to wish your parents a happy New Year."

"No, no, no, Brother Hao, this is not good. It is reasonable and reasonable for us to visit you." Xiao Duan was very excited: "Brother Hao, my father is going back to Beijing to see my grandpa tomorrow. Please send me the address. We’ll go to your house right away.”

"In such a hurry? Okay, then you can do it."

Zhao Hao is a bachelor, and he can't stop him even if he should.

About an hour later, two commercial vehicles drove into the community. They didn't look very impressive.

One of the cars stopped moving when it was parked downstairs, and no one came out from inside.

The door of another car opened, and a shy and handsome young man stepped out, followed by a very elegant middle-aged woman who even got out of the car with an elegant posture. Then a gentle man wearing glasses walked out of the driver's seat, opened an umbrella in broad daylight, and blocked a man in Chinese tunic suit.

The bespectacled man held an umbrella the entire time and protected the man in Chinese tunic uniform as if he were a thief as he entered the elevator.

A moment later, the doorbell of Zhao Hao's house rang.

Zhao Hao opened the door and saw Xiao Duan's family of three.

That elegant aunt should be Xiao Duan's mother.

The uncle in the Chinese tunic suit is Xiao Duan's father. Zhao Hao glanced at Duan's father twice, always feeling that he looked familiar. Moreover, this uncle was very aura. Standing at the door, he felt like he was pointing out the world.

Zhao Hao didn't think much and took the family of three into the living room.

Zhao Zhicheng and Su Yurong immediately came over to say hello. As soon as they saw the old man in Zhongshan uniform, Zhao's feet slipped as if he had seen an alien. He was dumbfounded and said: "Duan...Duan...Shu Ji?"

Su Yurong was also stunned. She had seen the middle-aged man in front of her who was not angry and proud. She had seen it countless times in the local news.

Zhao Hao also realized it. No wonder this uncle looked familiar. There were very few people in Zhonghai Province who didn't know this uncle. This person is the top leader in this land, the one in charge of a province.

This kid is so humble!

Recalling Xiao Duan's sentence "My dad works at Zhonghai", Zhao Hao couldn't complain.

Do you think your dad works at Zhonghai? Your dad should be the boss at Zhonghai!

It was so cold, my hands were frozen, and typing became a hard job. When I wrote this chapter, I remembered a winter many years ago, and I couldn't help but be a little literary at the beginning. Fortunately, Lao Niu quickly adjusted his status and did not get into trouble like he did back then. The plot is still advancing in the established direction. PS, if you have time, watch Mango TV at 9 o'clock tonight, the reading ceremony, and you might be able to see Lao Niu applauding desperately.
