Apocalypse Tree of Hope

Chapter 75
Lin Rantong felt like the sky was falling. After losing her husband, her son was the spiritual pillar for her to live well. She never dared to imagine how she would live if she lost him.

He patted his chest to her and said that he was a little man, who wanted to take care of her for her father, An Ran, who was taller than a cactus and looked forward to growing up quickly, and An Ran, who went to play with Dashan in a sensible way when she was practicing, and smiled with his chubby face An Ran who has a small dimple like her, she absolutely must not lose, and she must not lose.

Lin Rantong felt her heart hurt like a twist, she gritted her teeth and stood up and was about to walk out.

"Rantong, where are you going?" Seeing that Lin Rantong was pale and in a trance, Xia Yongjia grabbed her.

Lin Rantong's voice was hollow and erratic: "I'm going to find Ranran, I must find him!" As he spoke, he pushed Xia Yongjia's hand away.

"Rantong, don't do this, let's search for clues again—" Xia Yongjia persisted in grabbing her, with Liu Yu's sobbing occasionally.

The string of rationality in Lin Rantong's mind has already been broken. Seeing Xia Yongjia grabbing her again, he couldn't help but frowned, and with a light flick of the grasped hand, Xia Yongjia staggered and took several steps back. Just stopped.

At this moment, a soft child's voice came: "Mom—"

Everyone froze for a moment, and looked in the direction of the sound stiffly and slowly, with expressions of surprise mixed with disbelief on their faces.

Beside the tall and dense ginkgo tree, Dashan's puffy body appeared, with a pair of fleshy little wings fluttering behind him, holding the little bun Anran in his arms, Anran's exquisite phoenix eyes were exactly the same as Lin Rantong, It was bent into a small crescent, and she stretched out her chubby little hand and shook it to her mother.

Da Shan hugged An Ran and landed on the ground. Lin Rantong strode up to him, hugged An Ran in his arms like a whirlwind, and hugged An Ran tightly for a long time, speechless.At this moment, she even wanted to thank God for still being kind to her.

Little Anran rubbed her chubby face against her mother, Lin Rantong's long hair hung down and stuck to the tip of his nose, he wrinkled his little nose and sneezed loudly.

Lin Rantong kept stroking her son's head, and his son was as silly as a little tiger, which made her heart ache.

"Baby, why did you run up the tree?" Lin Rantong grabbed An Ran's little hand and asked with a kiss.

An Ran looked up at her chubby little face and said, "Brother Dashan brought me up."

At this time, Lin Rantong gradually calmed down, and turned to look at Dashan: "Dashan, what happened, what about Tang Tang and the others?"

Da Shan's expression was obviously not as carefree as An Ran's. The little man looked terrified and at a loss. Seeing Lin Rantong's heart ached, he stretched out his other hand and brought Da Shan into his arms.

"Sister, they all—" Following Dashan's narration, everyone gradually pieced together the scene at that time.

More than an hour ago, Ma Zhi, Tang Tang, Ma Xiaoyan and two children were all sitting together for breakfast.

"Of course, why don't you drink porridge?" Seeing An Ran not moving her chopsticks, Tang Tang asked with concern.

I made pumpkin polenta today. It is delicious and sweet, and it is usually the most popular with the two little ones. Although the adults obviously have no appetite, they cannot starve the children.

"Aunt Tang, why hasn't mom come back yet?" An Ran wrinkled her small face and asked with wide-eyed eyes.

The hearts of the three adults sank. When Lin Rantong and the others left yesterday, they told them that they would be back before dinner, but now that the whole night has passed, could something unexpected happen?When the three of them thought of this, their expressions became ugly.

Tang Tang stood up and circled the room back and forth.

"Woman, can you sit down for a while, I'm dizzy!" A trace of helplessness and impatience flashed across Ma Zhiqing's delicate and delicate face.

"No, no, I'm going out to find out, why haven't they come back!" Tang Tang stomped, turned and walked towards the door.

"Stop—" Ma Zhi shouted.

Tang Tang turned her head angrily, and the tears in her eyes turned around and resisted not to flow down: "What are you doing!"

"You can't go, we'll wait for them at home." After saying this, Ma Zhi looked at Tang Tang's tearful eyes and paused, then said softly, "Don't worry, I believe they will definitely come back."

Tang Tang stirred his hands together and made a "clack" sound. After thinking about it, he shook his head vigorously, and his long wavy hair swayed, looking lazy and charming: "No, I must Go out and inquire about it, otherwise I won’t be able to let go of it all the time, I guarantee that if I don’t leave the city gate, can I just inquire about the situation in the city?” He said, looking at Ma Zhi eagerly.

Hearing Tang Tang's pleading tone, and looking at the determination in her eyes, Ma Zhi knew that she couldn't stop her, and stood up thinking of this: "If this is the case, then I'll go, with such big dark circles, Going out is scary!"

"Brother——" Ma Xiaoyan yelled when she saw Ma Zhi stand up. The round Apple face also had big dark circles. Obviously, the three of them hadn't slept all night.

"Little sister, you have locked up this troublemaker at home. No one will open the door except our own people. I will come back after I go out to inquire about the situation. Even if I don't come back for a while, I am not allowed to go out to look for it. Don't forget that there are Dashan and others. An Ran wants you to take care of her." Ma Zhi instructed patiently.

Ma Xiaoyan nodded while listening: "Brother, be careful."

Not long after Ma Zhi went out, Da Shan and An Ran started playing together. Seeing that An Ran was still a little unhappy, Da Shan stretched out his hand to hold An Ran's little hand and said, "An Ran, why don't I take you to a tree to dig out bird eggs."

An Ran flashed her long eyelashes, he had never climbed a tree and he had never picked out a bird's egg, so he couldn't help but nodded his head.

After a while, there was a knock on the door. Tang Tang and Ma Xiaoyan walked to the door in surprise. They looked at each other and no one dared to make a sound. The people outside the door seemed to know what the insiders were thinking, and said: " Tang Tang, it's me, open the door quickly!" It turned out to be Lin Rantong's voice.

Tang Tang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and took a step forward to open the door, but was knocked to the ground by a wooden stick coming towards him. Ma Xiaoyan reacted much faster, and immediately jumped to the side when she saw this, but then came two The fast man came to her side before she released the power, and also slapped her on the neck, and Ma Xiaoyan let out a muffled groan and fell limply to the ground.

"Hurry up, find those two brats and get rid of them!" A man with the brim pulled down shouted.

Then a few people who also covered their faces appeared, and quickly searched the house, upstairs and downstairs, but they didn't find Da Shan and An Ran.

"I didn't find it, what should I do?" One person replied.

The person who ordered at the beginning said: "Forget it, the two brats can't do anything if they think about it, and the higher-ups are still waiting for important people. Let's go. It's too late to avoid trouble!"

Several people put Tang Tang and Tang Tang into two sacks quickly, and then carried the sacks away like a gust of wind. Only the solitary open door showed the unusual atmosphere here.

On the tall and dense ginkgo tree, Da Shan tightly covered An Ran's mouth with one hand, and his own with the other, his small body could not help but tremble with the rustling of the leaves in the wind.

"Dashan, you are such a smart child." Lin Rantong sighed, no wonder Dashan dared to come down from the tree just after he had been in for a long time. This kind of wit and prudence is really not something that only a ten-year-old child can have.

"Rantong, what should we do?" Xia Yongjia said, "It's so strange, how could Tang Tang and the others hear your voice?" He rubbed his hands together, his face full of confusion.

"I can't figure this out for a while. Let's think about who caught Tang Tang and the others, and rescue them quickly." Lin Rantong thought about the consequences of the two girls being taken away after being beaten unconscious by several men. I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.

"Sister-in-law, could it be those people who came to our place last time to make trouble?" Liu Yu said.

Lin Rantong looked at Xia Yongjia and Wei Xiuning, both of them belonged to the kind of people who kept calm when things happened, but Xia Yongjia covered it up with a simple and honest mask, and Wei Xiuning used his facial paralysis to show others, but he knew little about them at this time The deep Lin Rantong could still see the anxiety in their eyes.

"Rantong, what Xiaoyu said makes sense. The few times we had feuds after we came to the base, we didn't leave any worries. Only Zheng Hongtao is the most suspicious," Xia Yongjia said.

Lin Rantong lowered his eyelashes to cover up the anxiety in his eyes: "I always feel that things are not that simple, but we have no other way, we still have to start with Zheng Hongtao, let's go!"

"Sister-in-law, do you want to bring Da Shan and An Ran?" Liu Yu asked with a worried expression.

Lin Rantong frowned, seeing An Ran hesitated, she really didn't know what dangers she would encounter when she went this time, but she was worried about leaving her son and Da Shan behind.

"Sister, I will take An Ran and wait for you on the tree, okay?" Da Shan said while pointing to the ginkgo tree where he had just lived.

This ginkgo tree is thick and tall, with intertwined roots and luxuriant branches and leaves. It would be really difficult for the two children to hide on it.

Seeing Lin Rantong's hesitation, Dashan said again: "Sister, there is a branch in that tree that is very comfortable to sit on. It is very wide and will never fall off."

Lin Rantong took out two pots of water and some steamed buns and eggs from the space, put them in a small bag and handed them to Dashan: "Dashan, wait for us to come back, don't come down."

Seeing Da Shan patted his chest and nodded, Lin Rantong kissed An Ran hard: "Baby, listen to Brother Da Shan, Mom will be back soon."

"Mom, don't go, but I miss you."

"Of course, mom, go and get Aunt Tang and Aunt Yan back, okay, then mom will never leave you again." Lin Rantong said softly.

Seeing Dashan slowly flying up to the tall ginkgo tree with Anran in his arms, gradually disappearing from sight, the four of Lin Rantong galloped down the street.

　The author has something to say: Today in the book review area, I saw some children’s shoes beating willow leaves. The update is not good. Alas, people who have to go to the scene every day this week, and almost suffer from heat stroke, can’t afford it!
