Chapter 17: Lust Flowers

On time at night, the man named Lao Xue appeared in the wanderer, Abin got on a black Jaguar driven by Lao Xue, and looked at Li Banruo who was sleeping when he left, as if he hesitated a little, but in the end he didn't wake up the man.

Sitting in this car, Abin could see that this was not the route to the casino, but he didn't ask, perhaps because he knew that he wouldn't have an answer if he asked.

The man driving looked very old-fashioned and serious, but he seemed to be squinting at Ah Bin, and when he seemed to be about to reach his destination, he finally spoke: "At that time, why did you bet with Pan Dongzi?"

Abin smiled slightly: "If I say that I think I will definitely not lose that bet, I don't know if you believe it or not." ”

Lao Xue narrowed his eyes slightly, but through Abin's face, he couldn't find the look that a deceiver should have, and a smile on his face that looked a little stiff appeared, as if it was because he didn't know how long he hadn't shown this expression, he said, "I believe it." ”

Jaguar drove out of this small city, and drove to the halfway up the mountainside that leaned on the side of this small city, which was estimated to be only a few hundred meters above sea level, although there was still a cement road, but the ground was already potholed, and this road without street lights could not see any car shadow at night, only leading to this bare mountain, giving people a particularly creepy feeling.

In the place where the Jaguar car stopped, a small red dot lit up, Abin knew who this man was, under the gaze of Lao Xue, he walked to the man's side, and followed the man's gaze to look down the mountain, maybe because the surrounding was too far out of his hand to see the five fingers, the city was so bright, like a star in the sky.

"It's not beautiful to see this huge city, isn't it? It's beautiful, it's a dazzling time, but it's just a dream. Pan Dongzi said to Abin beside him.

Abin didn't answer, maybe because what Pan Dongzi said was too far away, he was just a puppet tortured by the past.

"I, a gambler who has gambled for most of my life, lost so completely for the first time, but why did I lose everything, why was my mood so calm. Pan Dongzi stepped on the cigarette butt and lit one again.

"You didn't call me here just to say that you are a gambler, right?"

Pan Dongzi smiled, maybe he and Ah Bin have never been people of the same world, one gambles with money and the other gambles with life, and there is an incomparably huge gap between them during this period.

"It's not that I want that woman, it's a big man who wants her, but I'm done, just let her leave the city completely, because I told the woman that she's dead. Pan Dongzi said.

"Thank you. Abin said two words, which were also two words that made Pan Dongzi feel a little disheartened.

"Don't you have anything more to say to me?" Pan Dongzi asked relentlessly.

Ah Bin was silent for a while, he could feel Pan Dongzi's eagerness for him, this is a kind of sympathy for heroes who see heroes, maybe Pan Dongzi's ideal thing will be like this, but this is just two gamblers who lose and have nothing to hate each other.

"Sometimes, friends are the same as casinos, you have to know how to accept when you see good, if you are not willing to be only friends, want to win a lot of money, maybe you will lose so much that you are not even friends. Abin said.

"So, we're friends, right?" Pan Dongzi said with a smile instead of being frustrated by Abin's indifference.

"Bettors. Abin said, maybe Pan Dongzi next to him is a completely heinous existence, but for his contact with Pan Dongzi, Pan Dongzi is at least not as hateful as Li Panruo said, but he definitely doesn't think that Pan Dongzi will be a good person, and he will crawl in this black all the year round, saying that Pan Dongzi's heart is not a little black, and no one will believe it.

"This gambling road is really lonely, after walking for so many years, I met you with such a sympathy, and I don't know if this is sad or ridiculous. Pan Dongzi said self-deprecatingly.

Abin didn't sympathize with Pan Dongzi at all, and just asked, "Why did you choose such a path?"

"Maybe I'm a natural gambler, from the beginning of losing to the ruin, losing to the upheaval, and then again, wandering between despair and hope, because I have seen too many things, so I know very well, I have fallen into it. Pan Dongzi snuffed out this eye again and continued it again.

This is a flower of desire that blooms in this unbearable life, this is the ugliest and ugliest flower, but in the heart of this gambler, it is the most beautiful flower.

"What is gambling? Gambling is something that gives you infinite hope and then infinite despair, but do you just think that's it? No, gambling is a cyclical process, seeing infinite hope in infinite despair, seeing infinite despair in infinite hope, and this is how it rotates over and over again, but the only thing that changes is the heavy debt that you have on your body, one day, this cycle will come to an abrupt end, and often the place where it ends abruptly is usually in infinite despair, and then all debts are like a flood, swallowing up everything you have, the people you love, and the people who love you. Pan Dongzi held his head, with a splitting headache, as if he remembered that unbearable past.

"Gambling to the end, numb, completely numb, I am not happy to win, I am not happy to lose, I like to watch a live glamorous people fall into it, dominated by such a flower called desire, every time I watch them bet on the loneliness of their lives, I always feel that it is a chip, I cast it, some people bet to win, but most of them lose. Most of the winners said before that they would go ashore after winning this handful, but they couldn't do without the casino with the money in their hands, so in the end, there were no winners, only losers, and the casino did not go bankrupt one day, and no matter how rich the person was, there will always be a day when he loses to a dead end. So I'm not worried at all that someone in my casino will win money and run away, just ask a person who has lost 100,000 or hundreds of thousands of people who have lost their families and lost their hands to it, let alone such a person who has won a bet. Pan Dongzi took a sip of this cigarette, this is something he has never said to humanity, but he has been holding it in his heart for too long, and he always wants to find someone to talk to, but it has been too long and too long, and he no longer cares who the listener will be, what he looks like, and whether he will stab the knife out in the next second.

"Some things may seem insignificant, but gambling debts will one day accumulate until the day when people can never pay them back, that day is the end of everything, and it is also the beginning of everything. Pan Dongzi snuffed out this cigarette again, this time he didn't add another cigarette, but looked at Abin with a complicated face.

In the dark, Pan Dongzi couldn't see Abin's face, and he couldn't see the man's expression, but he always felt that something seemed to be flickering.

"Is that day coming soon for you?" said Abin.

Pan Dongzi smiled, and at this moment he suddenly felt that he was lucky, because in the end, he found such a good listener, but it seemed that he would never have the opportunity to tell his own story as a gambler again.

"Lust is the most terrifying thing in the world, and are you willing to control it all?" asked the gambler Xiang Bin, because he saw infinite possibilities in this young man.

"I've found what keeps me alive, the flower that blooms with this desire may shine brighter than anything else, but it only hurts all the people I love, doesn't it?" Abin said, in the dark, he couldn't see Pan Dongzi's incomparably envious and incomparably longing expression.

"I see. Pan Dongzi muttered, coughing and coughing, but this time he didn't take out the medicine, but lit a cigarette again, as if in front of this so-called fallen man, he tried his best to cover up something, his ridiculous dignity.

Lao Xue's hand slowly touched into his arms, it was a medicine bottle, his hand was clenched tightly, he didn't understand Pan Dongzi's wishes, but who would go on such a road? Except for that ridiculous Pan Dongzi, maybe this is fate, the so-called good and evil cause and effect.

"Friend, maybe you have already noticed that this Yuan Qiao'er, she is not the kind of innocent girl you imagined, she is also a gambler, or even more crazy than her father, the reason why her father's company collapsed so quickly is because she cheated the company out of a large amount of money, of course, all of this money was lost, and even I suspect that her father's death is related to her. Is she worth your action for this?" Pan Dongzi forced his crumbling body to support, and finally said this seemingly extremely dazzling reality, he just wanted Abin to see clearly, what kind of world this is, how naΓ―ve the hero he has become.

And Ah Bin was not as surprised as Pan Dongzi imagined, just a smile came from the darkness, and he said very indifferently: "I do this, just to know if I am still alive, maybe it is too selfish to say this, this may be the redemption of the hopeless Yuan Qiao'er, but I may really want to redeem the person I want to redeem, it is just myself, I just can't bear to watch her dissipate in front of my eyes." ”

Pan Dongzi was speechless for a while, he didn't dare to imagine how heavy the so-called salvation and what he was carrying for Ah Bin, but he was also relieved when he heard Ah Bin's words.

"In this world full of all kinds of flowers of desire, maybe everyone is not worth saving, every soul is not worth saving, but at least the person we can save is ourselves, isn't it?" Abin looked at the city again, it was very beautiful, he wanted to freeze this beauty, and only see her beauty forever and ever.

"My name is Abin, and I will give me a lot of advice in the future. Abin reached out into the darkness.

In the darkness, Pan Dongzi held this hand, a very rough, gauze-like hand.
