A+ A- Eye Dark

74 Returning to Hometown

When I, Wang Xiaohu, finally upgraded from a first-class master to a first-class master, endless passion and emotion surged in my heart like surging waves. At this time, I stood alone on the top of a towering mountain, and the strong wind whistled over, blowing my clothes and making noise. At the foot, there is a vast land, with rolling mountains looming in the clouds and mists, like a giant dragon winding. Looking at this magnificent scene and recalling the hardships and struggles I have experienced along the way, tears can’t help but roll in my eyes and turn slightly red.
“I finally got to this point.” I murmured to myself, with a hint of trembling in my voice. The trembling included the joy of successfully reaching the top and the deep feelings for the difficult years in the past. Every choice of life and death moment, every battle between sweat and blood, flashes constantly in my mind like a movie.
These days, with my own steel will and unremitting efforts, I have been constantly hitting the bottleneck of martial arts. In that dark and sunny room, I practiced day and night, breaking through the limits of my body again and again; in the crisis-ridden disputes in the world, I fought bloody battles and experienced countless thrilling life and death contests, so that I achieved this remarkable achievement today. “The sea reaches the end and the sky is the shore, and I am the peak of the mountain climbing to the top.” I couldn’t help but shout with great enthusiasm, and the sound echoed in the valley, alarming a group of birds. At this moment, I felt as if I was integrated with the world, and my heart was filled with endless confidence and strength. “This world will eventually have a world of me, Wang Xiaohu!”
It’s my parents’ death day again. Every time this time, the deep longing for my relatives in my heart is like a tide and cannot be curbed. I am determined to say goodbye to my master, return to my hometown to untie the knot that has been entangled in my heart for many years.
I came to my master’s room with firm steps, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door respectfully. “Master, I’m asking for a visit.” My voice was calm and powerful, with a hint of unconcealed excitement.
“Come in.” The master’s familiar and calm voice came from the room.
I gently pushed the door and saw the master sitting upright at the table, looking at me calmly and deeply.
I knelt on my knees, “Master, my disciple is unfilial, I’m here to say goodbye to you today.” My head was lowered deeply, and my voice was filled with guilt and reluctance.
The master was slightly stunned, and then a happy smile appeared on his face. The smile was as warm as the spring breeze. “Xiaohu, get up and talk.”
I stood up, and my eyes tightly faced my master’s kind and expectant eyes, and said, “Master, my disciple has achieved something now. I want to return to my hometown on my parents’ death day to pay tribute to them, and I have fulfilled my years of concern. The rich and noble hometown is like walking in brocade clothes at night. The disciple wants to let the people in my hometown know that I, Wang Xiaohu, are no longer the bullying boy back then.” I clenched my fists, and a firm light flashed in my eyes.
The master nodded slightly, his eyes full of love and comfort, and he slowlyHe said, “Little Tiger, I know your thoughts. I am very pleased to be able to achieve today’s achievements. But you must understand that the way of martial arts is endless. Although you have become a top-notch master, there are many strange people in the world. Don’t be arrogant because of your temporary achievements.”
I bowed my head and responded respectfully: “My master’s teachings are in mind. My disciple must remain humble and constantly improve his martial arts.”
The master stood up, walked to me, put his hands on my shoulders, and said earnestly: “This world seems calm, but in fact it is a surging underestimation. You are now in a state of great skill, and you must know how to distinguish right from wrong, not be confused by fame and fortune, and not abuse your force. You must walk in the world with a chivalrous heart and help the poor and the needy, so that you can be the right way.”
I raised my head, looked at the Master’s expectant look, and said firmly, “Master, don’t worry, I will never let you down, treat things in the world with a righteous heart, do not be arrogant or impatient, and do not bully the weak.”
The Master nodded slightly and continued, “Further, people’s hearts are sinister, and you must be careful. In the world, don’t trust others easily, and be more careful in everything. But you should not lose your trust and kindness in people because of this.”
I nodded heavily, “My disciple understands that you will definitely act cautiously.”
The Master patted my shoulder and said, “Go, child. Remember, no matter when, this is your home. If you encounter difficulties, Master will always be behind you.”
I had tears in my eyes and saluted my master deeply again, “Disciple, say goodbye to Master.” The moment I turned around and left, my heart was mixed. There is not only deep gratitude and reluctance to the master’s grace for many years of upbringing and teaching, but also his expectations and anxiety about his coming home.
I became more and more anxious as I embarked on the road to return home. Along the way, the scenery was picturesque, but I had no intention of appreciating it. Thoughts are like flying catkins, and memories are constantly coming like tides. Thinking of the happy time I was with my parents when I was a child, the warm smile and kind words seemed to still echo in my ears; thinking of their helplessness and sadness when they passed away, a tingling pain in my heart, as if the wound had never healed.
“Dad, the child is back.” I said silently in my heart, my voice full of longing and guilt.
Finally, I returned to my hometown that I had been away from for a long time. Every tree and grass in my hometown is still so familiar, but it is a bit strange. The old locust trees at the entrance of the village are still lush with branches and leaves, and the stream where they played in childhood is still flowing.
I came to my parents’ grave with heavy and excited mood, and knelt heavily on my knees, “Dad, mom, I’m here to see you. Over the years, I’ve been working hard and now I’ve become a top-notch master. I’ll definitely not let you down.” Tears rush out like a flood breaking through the dam.
In front of the grave, I sat quietly for a long time, recalling the little things of the past and thinking about the direction of the future.
“I want to let those who have bullied usI know that I, Wang Xiaohu, is no longer the weak and helpless child back then. I want to use my strength to protect this land and protect my relatives in my hometown. “I stood up with my eyes firm as iron, “From now on, I will let justice last forever on this land and let everyone live a stable life. “
With this firm determination, I slowly left the cemetery, facing the warm sunshine, ready to face new challenges and a hopeful life in the future. As fast as possible.
