Chapter 1 The wind arises from the end of Qingping
The year of Yiwei, Gengchen, Dingchou day, Friday, sunrise time is 5:22:10.
At 5:22:09, Zheng Dao opened his eyes. In 10 seconds, he jumped up from the bed and woke up on time. For ten years, he has maintained a habit that has never stopped - he wakes up at sunrise every day, no matter how long it is.
It was the habit that his father Zheng Jian developed after 5 years of training.
The sunrise time is different every day. You must wake up at the same time every day and sunrise time. Even the best and most dedicated roosters in the world cannot do it! The earliest sunrise and the latest sunrise in the year are nearly 3 hours apart, which means that the human biological clock must be synchronized with the rotation of the earth.
My father taught Zheng Dao that everyone’s time to enlighten the mind is different, but the stupid bird flies first. As long as you get up at sunrise every day and persevere, you will surely achieve great success in ten years.
Zheng Dao didn't want to sleep late than dogs and get up earlier than chickens, so he refuted his father - "The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine" says: In March of spring, all things are prosperous, and lie down early at night; in March of summer, all things are rich, lie down early at night; in March of autumn, the earth's energy is bright, lie down early and get up early; in March of winter, do not disturb the sun, lie down early and get up late... In spring, summer and autumn, you can barely go to bed early and get up early. He doesn't want to leave the warm bed early in the winter when water is ice-like. Only when getting up late in winter is the way to maintain health.
Dad did not reason with Zheng Dao. He stood in front of his bed on time every day, and practiced a set of Tai Chi first whenever he had a disagreement. If he hadn't gotten up, Dad would use his senior computer to drive it to the maximum sound to play square dance music.
Until today, the first thought that flashes through Zheng Dao's mind every day when he wakes up is the strong and exciting music, either "Little Apple", "The Most Displeasant National Style" or "Standing on the Grassland Looking at Beijing".
It took 10-year-old Zheng Dao five years to develop the habit of getting up from sunrise under the rogue-like supervision of his father. He has been persisting for 10 years since he was 15 years old!
Today is his 25th birthday.
The terrace on the second floor is located in the southeast corner, about 20 square meters, facing the rising sun. After a set of Tai Chi, Zheng Dao breathed evenly and longly. Not only did he not sweat, but he became more refreshed.
After finishing Tai Chi, he practiced the Five Animal Play again, and the sun shone on every corner of the terrace.
Luffa grows upward along the corner of the wall, cucumbers grow with gratifying racks, green leafy vegetables are planted in the narrow and long plastic incubator placed along the railings, plus a set of tables and chairs, as well as several pots of bonsai and flowers placed in the corners. The small terrace is full of life and full of the atmosphere of life.
There are two large trees on the yard on the first floor that are at least 30 years old, one is a sycamore tree and the other is a soapberry tree. The soapberry tree is opposite the terrace on the second floor. It is the flowering season. Light yellow and white petals like grape bunches are hung on the branches, like a hanging wind chime. The wind blows the flowers, and sometimes the petals fall, like smoke and dreams.
The sycamore tree is also lush with branches and leaves. The stretched leaves indicate that summer has begun to take over the season. The canopy covers the sky and the sun is intertwined with the canopy of the soapcorn tree, covering the yard in front of the door, forming a large green shade. The best thing is summer, whether in the morning or evening, enjoying cool or eating in the yard, and not hearing the noise of cars or pedestrians, it is quite quiet that "hiding into a small building to become a united state, regardless of winter, summer, spring and autumn".
Zheng Dao looked at the yard downstairs for a few times. He was strange. He didn't see his father carrying fried dough sticks and tofu brains as usual. He was a little confused. His father, who always never got up late or left a breakfast, what happened today? Breakfast is even more important to his father who focuses on health.
A gust of wind blew, rolling up the leaves and petals scattered in the corner of the terrace, forming a small whirlwind... The wind rose at the end of the green duckweed, and the illness occurred in the slightest ripples - for some reason, a catchphrase that my father often talked about.
"Zheng Dao, Zheng Dao, I'm going downstairs, are you getting up?" He Xiaoyu's crisp voice came from the third floor. Without waiting for Zheng Dao to answer, her figure flashed and appeared on the terrace.
The weather in May is hot and cool, not as hot as the midsummer in June. He Xiaoyu only wore shorts and casually tied a bun. Her slender thighs were toned and well-proportioned, with a slap face and light eyebrows. She was 1.67 meters tall, like a lush tree, graceful and full of vitality.
Although Shimen, the provincial capital city of the northern plains, has begun to enter summer. However, after all, it is not yet the real hot season, and there is still a little coolness in the morning and night. How can Xiaoyu get up early and wear so cool?
She held a toothbrush in her mouth, a water cup in her hand, one foot wearing slippers and the other was bare, and said in a panic and vague expression: "No, something happened, something big happened! Zheng Dao, your dad is gone!"
Zheng Dao rubbed his stomach disapprovingly: "He is not a child, why is he missing? Regardless of whether he has food or not, I'm hungry."
He Xiaoyu quickly ran to the bathroom on the second floor, rinsed his mouth, and wiped his mouth with Zheng Dao's towel. Seeing Zheng Dao's surprised expression, he pouted in dissatisfaction: "I don't dislike you, what else do you want? Hurry up and see where Uncle Zheng has gone."
Really disappeared? Zheng Dao became more and more confused. Where can a single old man in his 50s go? Although he thought so, he kept going back to his room to find his cell phone and called his father.
Shut down.
Zheng Dao still didn't take his heart. He turned around and saw that He Xiaoyu's other shoe was kicked off by her. He stepped on the floor with two pink feet barely. He couldn't help but laughed in anger and touched her hair: "Little girl, how many times have you said that cold drinks and cold drinks hurt the lungs, and a person's body is the canopy and the lungs are the highest. It's fine if you like to eat cold drinks and cold food, but you always turn on the air conditioner to cover the quilt to sleep. This is not good. If it hurts the lungs, it will be a chronic disease for the rest of your life."
"Cough cough cough..." He Xiaoyu deliberately coughed hard a few times and pushed Zheng Dao's hand away, "Don't rub my head, I've said it ten thousand times. I'm not a little girl, I'm 21 years old! Remember, Zheng Dao, my name is He Xuyu, my nickname is Xiaoyu. I will call me a little girl in the future, and I will break up with you!"
"Also, I don't listen to your old Chinese medicine theory. You can't drink cold water, you can't turn on the air conditioner, you can't step on the ground barefoot, I can't! I'm just fire-powered Xiao Xiaohe!" He Xiaoyu immediately lowered his voice when he heard a cough coming from the upper floor, "Oh, my dad is awake. If he knew that Uncle Zheng was gone, he would definitely ask you for rent. You must be mentally prepared to be scolded. But don't be afraid, with me covering you, Lao He dare not be too presumptuous, but it is inevitable that he will be rude."
A gust of wind blew, and the wind chimes in Zheng Dao's room tinkled - it was He Xiaoyu's masterpiece. Once, she made a wind chime with her own hands and insisted on hanging it in Zheng Dao's room - on the desk. A piece of A4 paper was blown by the wind and floated up.
Zheng Dao took a step forward. When he saw that the A4 paper was about to fly out of the window, he suddenly stretched out his right hand, grabbed it, and took a look and held his breath.
"Zheng Dao, I see the words as if I look like a face!"
The strokes that are vigorous and round but not round are the handwriting of my father.
Letter is written in a brush.
"Just just talk about the past, but it is hard to say the world is vast! Please forgive my dad for leaving without saying goodbye, and don't waste your time looking for my dad. Since my dad parted without saying goodbye, I won't let you find it!"
OK, why do you want to go missing? Zheng Dao shook his head. This generation of old people... is really hard to take!
"It is our motto for not being a good minister and being a good doctor. My father has seen the coldness of the world and has experienced too many vicissitudes, so I have said that you must keep it in mind - no matter in front of anyone, no matter what major matters that are related to life, don't reveal your true identity! Remember, remember! Don't let anyone know the secrets in you!"
