"Dad?" Tang Can looked at the old man in front of him with disbelief.
Tang Aiguo's facial features have hardly changed, except for a hideous scar at the corner of his eye, which runs through half of his face, looking a little scary.
He looked at Tang Shen, his eyes swept over him, and then he stepped forward tremblingly: "A Shen, why are you here?"
When Tang Shen heard the familiar name, his eyes couldn't help but turn red. "Dad, you, you're not dead? Then my mom..."
Tang Aiguo's eyes dimmed when he heard this, and he said bitterly, "I was lucky enough to survive. Your mother wasn't so lucky. I buried her here. I couldn't bear to leave her alone in a place like this. She was timid and afraid of the dark at night, so I stayed here to accompany her."
"You haven't told me yet how you got down here? It's easy to get down from this place, but it's hard to get up."
Tang Aiguo's face was full of seriousness as he stared at Tang Can, not wanting to miss any of his expressions.
Tang Shen twitched his lips, his face filled with helplessness. "It was my second uncle. He said he wanted to tell me the truth about your murder. I wanted to know what he wanted to say to me, but he took advantage of me and pushed me off the cliff."
Tang Aiguo's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he cursed angrily, "This beast! If it weren't for him, how could your mother and I have been separated by Yin and Yang? And now he wants to harm you? He is worse than pigs and dogs!"
"Dad, was it really him who harmed you and mom? But how could you..." Tang Can asked anxiously.
Tang Aiguo looked at Tang Shen and recalled what happened back then, his face still filled with grief and indignation: "Your second uncle is actually not my biological brother. His parents were both gone back then, and your grandparents were kind-hearted. They took pity on him and took him in, treating him like their own son."
"Later, your grandparents passed away and left all their property to me. They didn't leave any to your second uncle. He was jealous and always resentful towards me."
"We were hunting in the mountains when we unexpectedly encountered two lone wild wolves."
"With my ability, I could have taken down the wild wolf."
"But your second uncle was secretly trying to trip me up. In the end, I was bitten by a wild wolf. Your mother was seriously injured while trying to protect me."
"It was at this moment that your second uncle revealed his ferocious face and pushed your mother and me off the cliff."
"Your mother was seriously injured and passed away two days after the fall. I'm here all alone. Luckily, I met Da Tuan and his family, and they saved me. I couldn't bear to leave your mother, and I thought you'd grown up, married, and had children. I didn't have anything to worry about, so I stayed here to accompany your mother."
"These days are your mother's death anniversary. I went to talk to her for a while, but I didn't expect that the beast would even harm you. What else does he want from our Tang family?"
Tang Aiguo became angrier as he spoke, and finally punched the stone bed.
Tang Shen also had mixed feelings.
He always thought that his father had passed away, but he didn't expect that his father was not only still alive, but also seemed to be doing well.
"Dad, I'm injured and I don't know how long it will take me to recover. Zijin and the children are outside and I'm afraid they will be bullied. Since my second uncle hurt me, he will definitely not let Zijin and the two children go. I can't stay here for too long. I must go back." Tang Can grabbed Tang Aiguo's hand anxiously.
Tang Aiguo hesitated and finally sighed, "Forget it. I've been here for five years. Maybe it's God's will that I should go back."
"But I have to take your mother back. I can't leave her here alone."
"Well, let's take Mom back with us." Tang Can nodded repeatedly.
Tang Aiguo thought for a moment before continuing, "It's very difficult to get out. I've actually been trying to find a way out these past few years. If the way out wasn't so difficult, I wouldn't have stayed here for five years."
"Your injury won't heal for three to five months. If it doesn't heal, you won't be able to leave. During this time, you should stay here and recuperate. As for your daughter-in-law, I don't think she's a weak person. Without you, she'll be stronger. She will definitely wait for you to return safely."
Tang Shen could only comfort himself in this way.
But I still feel uneasy in my heart.
Tang Aimin's method was really too cruel. Qin Zijin was a woman after all, so how could she possibly defeat Tang Aimin?
He was really afraid that after he returned, Qin Zijin and the two children would encounter an accident.
How could he have the courage to continue living alone?
Tang Aiguo also noticed Tang Shen's worry. After thinking for a moment, he spoke, "I'll go find you some medicine. There's nothing else here, but there are a lot of medicinal herbs, and there are also many fruit trees. At least you don't have to worry about food. You can just stay here and recuperate."
After saying that, he turned and walked out.
When he left, he took a giant panda with him, probably because he went hunting.
Tang Shen was always worried about Qin Zijin and could only pray in his heart, hoping that Qin Zijin would wait for him to return and that nothing would happen to her.

"Mom, I dreamed of Dad again." Qin Zijin got up early in the morning, prepared breakfast, and had breakfast with Tang Ruixuan.
After Tang Ruixuan ate a bowl of porridge, he frowned and looked at Qin Zijin.
Qin Zijin looked at him puzzledly and couldn't help asking, "What did you dream about Dad?"
"I dreamed that my father was in a cave with a black and white animal beside him. He was injured and had a lot of blood on his body, but he seemed to be fine." Tang Ruixuan recalled the dream carefully before telling Qin Zijin the general scene.
Qin Zijin's heart skipped a beat. "Cave? Black and white, is that a giant panda?"
"Yeah. Mom, why do I always dream about Dad?" Tang Ruixuan nodded, with a somewhat confused expression.
"Maybe your father misses you." Qin Zijin looked at Tang Ruixuan and said weakly.
"Oh, but Daddy is covered in blood, and he looks so scary." Tang Ruixuan frowned, obviously not liking such a dream.
Qin Zijin said nothing, but had an absurd idea in his mind.
It is said that father and son are connected by heart. Maybe this is not just a dream, but Tang Shen’s real situation.
He was injured, still alive, and with a giant panda?
Could the cave be under that cliff?
Qin Zijin had many guesses in his mind, but unfortunately he had no way to confirm them.
After giving Tang Simeng a massage today and acupuncture tomorrow, she should be able to wake up.
After the child wakes up, she will look for an opportunity to go down the cliff to see if she can still save Tang Shen.
Qin Zijin secretly made up his mind.
I gave Tang Simeng a massage at noon.
Tang Simeng's face was no longer as pale as before, but there was no sign of waking up.
Qin Zijin gave Tang Simeng a bath, put on new clothes for her, and tucked her into bed.
Seeing Tang Ruixuan sitting aside with a frown on his face, Qin Zijin couldn't help but reach out and rub his head: "What are you thinking about?"
"Mom, I remembered there was someone else in my dream."
