Chapter 338 (2/2)
”Mom's going out again, maybe... A few months? She won't be back until tomorrow's spring. Qian'er has grown up, sensible and is a little man. She should learn to take good care of herself. In the future, even if her mother is not around, she should be brave, strong, can't cry and can't give up at any time.” The mother's eyes were red and explained a few words to Liu Qian.
”Mom, don't leave me!” Liu Qian rushed into his mother's arms and hugged her.
”Qian'er is obedient. Mom, this is the last time to leave you. Mom promises you that she will never leave again after she comes back.” Mother kissed Liu Qian hard on his face, and then pushed him away.
”No! I don't want it!” Liu Qian shouted.
Liu Qian, six, didn't know why his mother left at that time. In my memory, it was the last time I met my mother. Since then, he stayed where she left every day until the snow melted, when spring came, and when all the branches on the roadside sprouted, but his mother never came back.
After growing up a little, Liu Qian carried his father around asking people about his mother's whereabouts, looking for everyone who had been close to his mother. But no one could tell where she had gone. A small amount of information available is that her mother is an archaeologist and an explorer. After her father's cheating and their divorce, she often goes out alone to look for various archaeological sites.
As for that winter. No one knows where she last went.
Therefore, since junior high school, Liu Qian has worked hard to exercise and learn field survival skills through various ways. In the winter and summer holidays of high school, he would explore those deserted places. He was not exploring, he was looking for his mother's whereabouts.
When you're alone in the wild. Especially when the night is very quiet, he can always dream that his mother came to him, stroked ~ touched his little face with a warm hand, and told him to be brave, strong and never give up.
During the four years of college, he almost abandoned his studies. He spent most of the four years alone in the wild, and he didn't go home much after graduation. From the winter when his mother left, all his life has been looking for and pursuing his mother's footsteps. As long as he gets a word from everyone who knows her, he will immediately pack up and start.
When he is alone in the wild, when his heart and the world are completely quiet, he can feel that he is so close to his mother, hear her call to him, and feel the warmth she once gave him.
The reason why he climbed Everest was also because his younger brother Liu Kun provided clues. He said that he had heard some news that his mother had conquered Everest with an expedition when she was young, and there was a flag she put on it, so Liu Qian must climb up and have a look in person.
Then his search came to an abrupt end after his trip to Mount Everest.
Parkour, rock climbing and survival in the wild are just the skills he practiced in the process of searching.
”Qian'er, stick to it and don't give up.” Mother's warm hand caressed ~ Liu Qian's cheek again.
”But I really can't hold on. Many times, I don't know what I'm holding on to.” Liu Qian shook his head hard. He was so tired that he closed his eyes and didn't want to open them anymore.
He felt as if his whole life had been insisting on his search, but he had long known that his search was meaningless.
”Everyone comes to this world for his own reason. Don't give up and continue. You will find the meaning of your life...” mother's voice became more and more distant.
A shaking, followed by a sharp pain, I felt as if I had fallen from a height. Liu Qian woke up from his sleep and opened his eyes to find that it was already dark. The reason for the fall was that Han Guangming, who was carrying the stretcher in front, slipped and fell to the ground, throwing Liu Gan out of the stretcher.
Late at night, in the endless jungle, the roar of monsters rang one after another. (to be continued.)
