Li's path

Chapter 580 Homecoming ([-])

Li En went home, to the home he hadn't seen for half a year—the place he swore to protect.

The loyal sled dog Bud was lying in front of the house shaking his head and shaking his head. When he smelled his scent, he made two "barks", and Sa Yazi jumped up to him and rubbed his knee affectionately.

The majestic thoroughbred Arthur poked his head out of the stable, and Herod snorted.

"Bud, Arthur, I'm back."

"Wang~"

"Herod~"

This scene has been repeated countless times, but Li En doesn't feel bored at all, he just feels warm - because, this is home, where he belongs.

"Seeing that you are still so healthy, I am relieved. I will go to see my parents first, and I will play with you later."

Pushing open the door, father Teo and mother Lucia stood at the porch as before, waiting for their son to come home.

"Welcome back, Rean."

"Father, mother, the unfilial son Li En is back." Li En stepped forward and gave his parents a hug.

There is an old saying in China: Parents are not far away.Li En has been running around since he was 12 years old, staying away from home for more than half of the year, he is an out-and-out unfilial son.No matter what the reason is and how important the reason is, unfilial piety is unfilial piety.

"Hehe, it's good to be back, it's good to be back." The mother's expression was still so gentle.

"Children will always leave the wings of their parents. You are just a little early." The father's smile is still so generous.

"Father, Mom." Li En's heart was warm, almost spilling out of the corners of his eyes.

"Dad, Mom, is brother back?" Hearing the voice, Elysee ran down the stairs and pouted when she saw a family of three hugging, "Mom and Dad are too cunning, I am clearly in front of everyone Bear with it, brother, I want to give you a hug too!"

"Okay, okay." Li En hugged Ai Lixie around a circle lovingly, "You are such a big person, and you are still like a child."

"It's only natural for a younger sister to act like a baby to her brother. Even in another ten or twenty years, I will still act like a baby to my brother!" This is Elysee's declaration.

"Ah, ah, brother and sister have such a good relationship." Lucia teased, "Why are other things not as frank as they are now? Otherwise, I can rest assured."

"Mom!" Alice refused.

"No matter what, the whole family is here, let's chat slowly while drinking tea." Theo smiled and closed the door.

"Okay." Li En nodded happily, drinking tea and chatting was also a repertoire at home.

"I definitely want to listen to the college's affairs."

"Mom, I've said it many times on the phone."

"Then you have to listen, it's not like this face-to-face, it always feels a little unreal. So, my dear~you can stop talking about hunting~"

Lucia tilted her head and squinted her eyes, making Teo obedient.

"I'll pay attention."

"Father, my classmates and I will go hunting with you in the mountains tomorrow, so let's talk about it then."

"When the time comes, let them see how good I am." Theo laughed heartily.

"You went hunting today too, I think the sweat on Arthur's body is not dry yet."

"Well, it's rare for the children to go home once. Besides, my son and his classmates have also received an award from His Majesty the Emperor. At least we need to prepare special products from Yumir to entertain you."

"Everyone will be very happy."

"Come in quickly, I'll make tea for you right away, and wait in the living room for a while." Lucia, who had the highest status in the family, interrupted the conversation between the father and son.

"Eh? The teacher left me a letter? Why didn't I know?" Li En was surprised in the living room.

Just 1 minute ago, Special Olympics handed him a pair of short axles.There are two words in the letter on the envelope - all biography.Judging from the color of the paper, I am afraid it has been a long time.

"This was delivered to our home by the teacher a year ago." Special Olympics explained, "It is said that it will let you settle down for a year before handing it over to you."

"It's been a year. The teacher is afraid that I'm too ambitious. I just wanted to run, so I want to fly." Li En probably guessed the teacher's thoughts, "Speaking of which, if I teach it in one year, I will teach it. The teacher is doing me a favor. Do you have confidence in your vision? Or do you have confidence in my understanding.”

"It must be confidence in my brother's understanding! Brother, you are the best!"

Seeing Elyse's cute appearance, the father and son laughed heartily.Theo said: "Elysee has already said so, Li En, you have to work harder."

"Brother, quickly open it and see what Teacher Yun wrote." Alice urged.

Li En opened the envelope, and slowly unfolded the short axis.There is only one word on the short axis——Yes.

One word can be read in less than a second, but Li En seemed to be dazed, his eyes fixed on the word "yes":
"I was awarded the seventh type of 'nothing', but the scroll given to me by the teacher said 'yes'. Is this hoping that I understand the way of having nothing?"

"I understand why there is no reason to regard nothing as being, but what is being and what is nothing? Where is the boundary between the two?"

"Is the no-man's land that I comprehended a little bit? No one, only me. Nothing. There."

"Follow this line of thinking. Is there a sword but no sword? Is there a trick or not?"

"Wait, isn't this the exact opposite of what the teacher said before? The teacher said it, it's completely different whether you hold a knife or not. Is the teacher lying to me?

"No, it's impossible. Yani, Laura and the others must rely on the weapons in their hands to exert their full strength."

"So, am I thinking wrong? Or is this no sword not that no sword?"

"elder brother."

"elder brother."

"elder brother!"

"Sorry, I was distracted." The sister's call finally brought Li En back to his senses. He looked up and found that only he and Alice were left in the living room, "Where's Dad?"

"I was called to the kitchen by my mother. It seems that the lid of the teapot can't be opened."

"It seems that I will be able to drink the tea made by my mother soon. It's been a long time since I said it." The most memorable taste is always the taste of home.For Li En, the tea made by his mother is the taste of home, even if the times change, it will be engraved in the depths of his soul.

"So, don't think about esoteric questions. You also said that this kind of thing can't be rushed."

"Yes, that's right." Li En sighed slightly.Having said that, he felt an inexplicable sense of urgency when he thought of the imminent civil war.

"Brother." A small hand pressed gently between his brows, "Don't frown all the time, your forehead is stiff, and your shoulders are also so stiff. Brother, relax, let me press it for you."

"It's been a long time." Li En leaned back slightly, his eyes nostalgic, "I don't know if your skills are rusty."

"No, no, but I've been practicing, ah." Realizing that she had slipped her tongue, Elysee seemed a little flustered, "Anyway, in short, there is absolutely no unfamiliarity, brother, don't worry."

"Then I'll leave it to you." Li En said and closed his eyes.

"Well, leave it to me." Alice stared at her brother's face with a soft voice.

"Brother, are you comfortable?"

"Um"

"Do you want to make it heavier?"

"No, that's fine."

"Brother, you can rest at home tonight."

"Of course, but the meal must be eaten with everyone."

"Ah, after drinking tea, I'll help my brother make the bed." (Are you sure it's not warming the bed?)

"It's okay, I can do it myself."

"No! Brother, you want to entertain your classmates. I will do this little thing for you."

"It's really not necessary"

"Yes!" Elysee increased the strength in her hand, "or is there something hidden in your room that I can't see, brother?"

"That's not true." In fact, there were, but Elysee couldn't understand them, they were all written in simplified Chinese characters, "Forget it, since you're so caring, I'll leave it to you."

"Well, leave it to me." Elysee whispered into her brother's ear, like a wife whispering in her husband's ear.

Outside the living room door, Lucia, who was carrying a teapot, asked her husband in a low voice, "Honey, what do you think?"

"Alyse is probably planning to cling to Li En for the rest of her life." Theo said with emotion, "I used to always worry that after knowing the truth, Alyse would become strangers to Li En. Should I worry about another issue now? ?”

"Oh, if Li En marries that child, all problems will be solved." ——Mom, you did a great job, and you gave me a good assist.

"Well~ Although Li En is also my proud son, my daughter will not be handed over to him so easily." Did you hear that it's so simple?That is to say, hand it over if you make things difficult for a little bit——Dad, your attitude is also very good.

"My child's father, you are so childish." Lucia rolled her eyes at her husband, "However, Li En's popularity with women is too good. Lisha, Yanilas, and Libel seem to have another one. I heard that there are female students in the academy. All of them are very lovely. No one knows what the future will be like."

"The future? I hope that the children living in this empire can seize the future they seek."

This is the wish of a father to his son, and it is also the wish of an elder who cares about the empire to all young people.

PS: The dialogue between Lucia and Special Olympics is basically the original words of the radio drama. It can be seen that the adoptive parents are indeed a god assist.Here, Rong Jianshao expresses the aspirations of the majority of book lovers: Why don't my parents do this?
PS2: In the original world line, Li En was still confused about himself and the future, so he did not live at home under the pretext of collective action, which made Alice very unhappy.Today's Li En has long since lost his confusion, and he will not leave his home alone and live outside.Moreover, it is only a few minutes away from Schwarzer's house to the Phoenix Wing Pavilion, so it is impossible to delay group activities.

PS3: During the internship in the imperial capital, Elliott lived at home, and did not live in the Guerrilla Association with Li En and the others.
