The BMW MINI stopped at the bottom of the apartment building, and Qiu Yue, who looked tired, got out of the car and closed the door, holding the lunch box she had just bought on the road, and the words that Li Banruo said to her before leaving were still echoing in her mind.

A little lost her soul walked upstairs and opened the door with the key, as if she had thought of something, she knocked lightly four times before slowly opening it.

She turned on the light, and the ghost-like man was already standing beside her, and someone else would have screamed out if he had heard it, but she was calm, and after such a turbulent night, there was nothing that could surprise her anymore.

She just casually put the takeaway on the table and said, "You need more rest now, I'm sleeping." After saying that, she left like this, with the exhaustion on her face that she couldn't get rid of.

This man seems to have been accustomed to this woman's coldness, but for some reason, he always felt that this woman who came home late was a little different from before, but after all, he was not the kind of person who was delicate enough to experience any emotions of others.

Chen Tongan sat down on the sofa and ate two boxed lunches in a big gulp, not only two boxed lunches, but also a box of cigarettes, which made Chen Tongan's heart warm, he opened the cigarette box like a hungry thirst, popped one out and put it to his mouth, but seemed to think of something, but held back his cigarette addiction to the balcony and lit it and inhaled deeply.

Although it was close to twelve o'clock at the moment, but still the lights were shining, he looked at this ordinary apartment building from this sunlight, as if every light had an exceptionally happy family, as a person who longed the most, he thought like this, how ordinary, how happy, how far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and those about the ugly humanity of those lights, so he ignored it.

He twitched one after another, looking at all this with great eagerness, thinking about whether he would be able to become a part of this ordinary, but slowly, his longing eyes slowly dimmed, he looked at his hands, the tattoos on his chest, and the scars on his body that could not be washed off, he did not regret that he had taken such a road, but he had some doubts in his heart, what kind of life he wanted.

It wasn't until he finished smoking almost half a pack of cigarettes that he put the cigarette back in his pocket, he moved his body, estimated that in a few days, he would be able to leave, and then fly away with the money that was enough to change his life, but why, when he saw such a takeaway, looked at the cigarettes she bought for him, this house full of that faint fragrance, in his heart, it was difficult to let go for a while.

For the first time, Chen Tongan felt that he was so weak, and he thought that he had experienced all the turmoil in this world, but he was so easily defeated by such a simple warmth, the warmth that most people have at their fingertips, and he felt very ironic and ironic.

Slowly, he clenched his fists, trying to strengthen his heart a little, but it was just a futile effort.

He struggled, but he failed, and now he longed, but he did not dare to go any further.

Only by falling, as long as you fall, can you sink.

Li Banruo and Ah Bin, who returned to the wanderer, waited for the fourth and fifth children to see Li Banruo with a blue nose and swollen face, and directly blew up their hair, but how to ask Li Banruo, Li Banruo was just very tough and didn't say anything, because Li Banruo's repeated advice, Abin had to hide it, not that Li Banruo didn't want to tell the fourth and fifth children, but because he was afraid that this person would do something that would bring about various consequences.

has been helping Li Banruo to the door of his room, Li Banruo let Abin leave, and he just entered the house and threw the door, Abin knew that Li Banruo, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, didn't need him to worry about anything, so he went upstairs to wash up and sleep, he was also tired, not only physically tired, but also mentally tired.

But this tired body was lying on the bed, and all kinds of memories in his brain tortured him to sleep, as if everything that happened today, he was not familiar at all, and these things that were not strange reminded him of his deepest memories.

He fell asleep in the midst of all these things that he cared about the most, but tormented him the most.

----------

That year, the Xiaoxing'an Mountains were particularly cold, the gray sky, and the sun was not seen for a long time, which made people feel inexplicably depressed.

A young man in a gray robe punched in the snow, and a punch was swung out, breaking the falling snowflakes.

An old man sat in front of the hut, his hair was gray, and the wrinkles on his face were like the bark of a tree, and he gave the impression that one could still age to such an extent.

His cloudy eyes looked at the young man who was tirelessly punching, and the wrinkled face made it impossible to see any emotions mixed in, I don't know if this is joy or sadness.

As if tired, the young man sat down beside the old man, rolled up an old cigarette for the old man, put it in the old man's mouth, and lit it for the old man.

"He... Won't be coming back. The old man took a deep breath of the smoke and said in an extraordinarily deep voice.

The young man's expression slowly darkened, he looked at the way up the mountain, and muttered, "I've been waiting for him for three years, and I don't care about waiting another three years." ”

The old man sighed, shook his head helplessly and said, "Some people, you can't wait for a lifetime. ”

"He said he would come back, and he would definitely come back. The young man said very stubbornly, as if all the needles in the whole world were pierced in his body, and he would not be shaken by a single bit.

The old man only muttered, but because his voice was so faint and faint, even the young man closest to him could not hear what he was saying.

"Abin, wait for that day when my body can't hold it anymore, you can go, you can't wait for him for a lifetime, there are too many things that need you to do, and when you step into this world, you will understand that this world is full of red dust, to put it bluntly, it's just some gadgets. The old man smoked a cigarette and smacked his lips, and although he said so, even his cloudy eyes, when he looked at the road up the mountain, were still so complicated.

The young man shook his head and said: "Old man, your body is still tough and ruthless, one day you will wait for Qingcang, he may just be tired in the outside world, falling, and suffering, but he is definitely more worried about you than anyone else." ”

When the old man heard this, he smiled slightly, but the laughter was so sluggish.

The wind and snow buried the entire road up the mountain, and the footprints of those three years of leaving have never appeared in this small wooden house on an unnamed mountain in the small Xing'an Mountains.

The last thing he remembered was that the winter of that year was particularly cold, bitterly cold and icy.

In the midst of a noisy small underground casino, the atmosphere of the casino seems to be good, even though it is this time.

The middle-aged man who lost all the money on the table got up unhappily and picked up the cigarette case, only to find that the cigarette box was already empty, but none of the people who won his money at such a table had the intention of handing him a cigarette.

"Lao Xu, if you don't fight, if you don't fight, you will be replaced. A bearded man said to the middle-aged man, who was as thin as a bamboo pole.

The man known as Lao Xu scratched the few hairs left on his head, and at this time his Nokia rang, he looked at the telephone number, and a fine light flashed in his eyes and said: "Wait, I'll go get money now, put on his torn jacket, and leave with his hands in his pockets." ”

Downstairs in this small two-story building, a small red dot flashed, and Lao Xu whispered at the top of the stairs: "Master Can?"

"Come down. Chen Can, who was in the dark, shouted at the middle-aged man at the bottom of the stairs.

The middle-aged man immediately walked down the iron staircase, although the stairs were a little shaky, but this guy's face flashed with joy, he walked towards Chen Can, nodded and said, "Master Can, I really bumped into the man you sent the photo." ”

Chen Can had a cold face, he didn't have a kind expression for this middle-aged man, and he said in a low tone: "Lao Xu, you'd better not play any tricks with me, if you want to play cards because you want to get some money from me, I will let you never want to touch cards for the rest of your life." ”

Face to face with a fierce look Chen Can, especially the two big round eyes on Chen Can's dark face, this middle-aged man was instinctively afraid, and his body kept trembling and said: "Master Can, even if you give me ten guts, I don't dare to joke about this kind of thing, I have really seen this person, at the intersection of our industrial three roads, he was picked up by a girl, it was a small BMW, the license plate is our local license plate, and the tail number is 6852." ”

Facing a large list of middle-aged men, Chen Can looked at it, he would not believe such a gambler who eats and waits for death to be idle, this guy who is like a hyena on the grassland, but he will eat any dead cat and rotten meat, but after thinking for a while, he said: "Erlong, give him a thousand." ”

Erlong, who was standing behind him, took out a stack of banknotes, counted them, and checked them several times before handing a thousand yuan to the middle-aged man.

Lao Xu took the banknote, a smile like a flower appeared on his face, and he hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, thank you." ”

Chen Can was very disdainful of Lao Xu's actions, and he threatened: "If I let me know that you are playing tricks with me, I will definitely be able to catch you, and then ask for your finger, and you know about it." ”

Lao Xu nodded like a rattle, and he said with a pitiful face: "Master Can, although we are a rotten life, we will not do such a thing because of such a thousand yuan." ”

"Fuck off, don't pretend to be a big-tailed wolf here. Chen Can directly gave the middle-aged man a kick, but kicked an empty kick, the middle-aged man had already slipped away, he knew very well, such a guy, he would do anything dirty, but he still didn't believe that Lao Xu would play with fire for such a thousand yuan, so he took out his mobile phone and sent a text message.
