. The prison was as dark as ever.

The bleak light, slanting through the mottled iron bars, with the faint light of the flickering candle flame, reflected the remnants of attachment.

Probably the only place where the light shines brightest as a window to the outside world. But the completely enclosed space is still encroached upon by an oppressive atmosphere from the first step in.

Su Shian stood in the shadows for a long time, watching his father, handcuffed and shackled, enter the visitation room and sit down at the small square table. He was silent for a long time before he slowly stepped forward at the signal of the jailer and sat down opposite his father.

"Your eyes have changed. The two of them met each other, and his father spoke movingly.

"Once upon a time, your eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, precipitated with endless despair and hatred. But now, in your eyes, the light of life is beginning to ignite. Someone or something must have changed you out there, right?"

Su Shi'an did not answer directly. After another long silence, he put his hands on the table and said lightly:

"I have a question for you. ”

"Have you found peace of mind?"

Father was obviously stunned, Su Shi'an also raised his gaze, stared at his eyes, and said slowly:

"I have a friend who talks to me for doing good deeds and accumulating virtues, not to get actual rewards, but just to have peace of mind. ”

"So, from the 'extremely vicious' criminal back then, to now you are content with the destiny of heaven and honestly serving your sentence here, is it because you have found peace of mind?"

That's why back then, he stopped himself from continuing to take revenge on Guan Zhukuai's family...... There is no more ferocity left in him, but he is content and grateful for everything around him, and he is a stranger to himself with a peaceful attitude...... Back then, had he figured it out?

After a long time, my father smiled, as if even the wrinkles on his face had melted.

He nodded deeply: "You have found a good friend." ”

"I think it's because of him that you've changed now. With such a friend by your side, I no longer have to worry about you going down the wrong path. Our father and son have finally attained true salvation. ”

Su Shi'an avoided his gaze and smiled bitterly at himself: "I have risked my life to kill a person many times, and until recently, I gambled my life to save someone for the first time. I found that salvation was more solid than killing. ”

"Every time I kill an enemy, my heart is still empty. I know that all I have left is coldness and hatred, and that hatred will lead to more hatred. No one will cheer for me, the enemy solves one and the next, I can only keep fighting and struggling. ”

"To survive is to continue the cycle of hatred. If it's dead, there's nothing. It was as if there was a sharp sword hanging over my head, forcing me to keep going. But I couldn't see the direction ahead, and I couldn't see the meaning of my existence. ”

"But...... Saving people is different. His voice also warmed, "The person I saved, he will thank me, as well as his relatives and friends, will also gather around me to ask for warmth...... It's a feeling I've never experienced before. He sighed softly, "I can only admit that love is indeed happier than hate." ”

This mental journey is something he has never started with anyone, including Moliang City.

He is not used to showing weakness in front of others, in the face of Jian Zhiheng and Guan Lin, he always adheres to the law of "I am happy with revenge if I live well", but he has no one to do with the emptiness after every revenge.

Perhaps only in front of his father, he can not shy away from being honest about his weaknesses. In front of him, I can seek comfort like a child.

Blood is thicker than water, and since they have the same blood flowing in them, their own hatred, their own sins, and their own vulnerability...... Father, maybe you will understand.

His father listened to him quietly, and at the end he smiled again: "Yours is this public welfare reality show." ”

"I've seen it all. In Su Shi'an's doubts, his father smiled and explained, "Here, every time the best performing prisoner has the opportunity to watch the show with the jailers." Ever since you entered the Tiangong Gate and had more opportunities to show your face on the public platform, I have tried my best to perform every time, just to ...... I can take a look at you more. ”

Such a system seems to have made the prison much more humane.

"You're here...... What do you do every day?" Su Shi'an gradually relaxed, and began to talk about simple homely things. And he also realized that after so many years, he never seemed to care about his father's daily life.

The father was still smiling, and there was more feeling in his eyes: "In addition to daily labor, I think about you every day." I will pray day and night for your mother, for you, and for Mrs. Guan, may God bless you with peace and security......"

Next, they talked a lot.

That was the first time he was no longer full of resentment, and he no longer thought that the person in front of him had ruined him...... You can really communicate openly with your father as a son and a friend.

They talked about the years they had missed, and they also talked about many interesting memories.

Knowing that he was coming here, Mo Liangcheng made a special trip to greet the prison and let him walk around with his father accompanied by the jailer.

Now, Su Saza Ang is by his father's side, "visiting" the entire prison and "visiting" the place where his father works and lives every day.

It's depressing, it's depressing everywhere. No matter how spacious the space is, the air here is still filled with a heavy atmosphere that is too rich to dissolve. It turns out that people who have lost their freedom live like this.

Wherever they walked, they also saw many other prisoners. On them, they are also burdened with various crimes, and some of them were once heinous. But looking at them now, there are really no traces of past sins. They are all working diligently to get their sentences commuted and to get out of here and reunite with their families as soon as possible.

Although it is a dark place, it is also a place where sin and new life are intertwined.

Su Shi'an walked all the way, watched all the way, and felt a lot of emotion.

"It's time for prayer, let's go. Suddenly, his father led him into another large room.

There were already a lot of prisoners gathered inside, all listening to the Zen master's lectures. Everyone's face is also full of piety.

According to his father, he has read a lot of scriptures in it over the years and has some insights. When he sincerely repented of his past crimes, cultivated himself and cultivated his mind, he finally found that "peace of mind".

The most important thing for those who survive in prison is to have hope. Other prisoners can try to behave and fight for a commutation of their sentences, but a person like him, who has been sentenced to life imprisonment, is destined to drown in the dust of his cell for the rest of his life. In such a situation, it is indeed of great significance to have a faith, not to be moved by the glitz of the outside world, and to practice oneself.

"Come and pray along, too. The father knelt down on the futon, folded his hands, closed his eyes, and said, "Repent of your sins, and if you are sincere, the gods will forgive you." ”

Su Shi'an also knelt down in cooperation. Although he didn't know anything about this, he just looked like his father, interrogating his heart in the sound of a wooden fish.

The power of faith is invisible, but it is real. In this room, everyone is praying sincerely, and the power of faith that has gathered is also subtly transforming every new joiner. The ringing bells in his ears and the steady rhythm of the wooden fish have all turned into a special atmosphere, allowing him to seriously reflect and repent.

After the long prayers, it was time for dinner in the prison.

Several plates are full of vegetarian dishes, and it is rare to see meat in a month. A monotonous color that makes people lose their appetite when they look at it.

Father looked at Su Shi'an's sad face, and couldn't help but smile: "You think it's hard to eat, right?"

Listening to this childlike tone, Su Shi'an's stubbornness was committed again, and he picked up the chopsticks and went to the plate to pick up the vegetables.

"I've eaten it no matter how unpleasant it is!"

His father laughed again and kept putting vegetables in his bowl.

I have too little time to spend with this son. When he was very young, he worked outside for a long time, and then the accident completely absented him from his childhood. Although he has no quarrel with the world on the surface, he has no desires, but if he has the opportunity, he still wants to see his son snuggled up to his knees and coquettish, just like an ordinary child.

If you owe him, you can make up for it.

The other prisoners at the table looked at them with envy. It's been a long time since they've experienced this kind of family warmth.

After the meal, after a short break, it's time to work again.

Su Shi'an accompanied his father to plow the land. With the experience of participating in reality shows, he is very proficient in doing it.

"I heard that the current business tycoon Xi Lingchen has also been in prison before, is it true?" At work, he suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but ask the other prisoners.

He was also in prison, but Xi Lingchen is now famous, everyone will only worship and chase, and no one will mention his disgraceful past.

Sure enough, no dirt is destined to be carried for a lifetime.

The other prisoners immediately spoke: "It's true! I heard that when I was in prison, I met the old president of the Two Lakes Chamber of Commerce, and people saw that he had a talent for business, so they handed over such a large treasure house to him!"

"It's also a prison, why can't we meet such a nobleman!"

Su Shi'an glanced at his father, then at the other prisoners, and interrupted them with a faint smile.

"Who can't meet it?"

"You take care of my dad a little more now, and when I come out, I won't treat you badly. ”

The prisoners all laughed, and there was inevitably another ridicule.

The impact of the arrest and death case was too great, and when the main culprit was imprisoned, he was also notorious for his murder, and he directly became the boss of the room. Whether it was the one who lived with him at that time until now, or the new ones who came in a few years later, they were a little afraid of him.

However, in the past, he has always been a loner, arrogant and indifferent. It's rare for his son to come today, and everyone can see that he is just an ordinary person, and he longs for the warmth of his relatives.

"It's time to do the interview. When the work was over, the other prisoners went back to their rooms to rest, but my father went to a separate room again.

"Interview, what interview?" asked Su Shi'an as he followed, confused.

Father smiled: "It's not because you are outside, stirring up the heat of old cases again and again, so a reporter saw the news value and was ready to come and give me an exclusive interview." I come every few days and I'm pretty much done now. ”

Su Shi'an was suddenly embarrassed. In order to take revenge on Guan Lin's family, he wantonly used the double-edged sword of public opinion. At that time, he really never considered his father's feelings.

"If it bothers you, why don't I send her away?" he offered to laugh dryly.

The father waved his hand, and the shackles rattled, "It's okay, I'm still quite energetic little girl." Also, I cherish the opportunity to meet outsiders. ”

The reporter waiting in the visitor room really looked like a little girl who had just graduated, her face was childish, and she was very serious when she asked questions, with enthusiasm that has not been wiped out by time.

Although she has tried to consider the emotions of the interviewees, the individual questions are still a little sharp.

When his father frowned subconsciously, Su Shi'an took the initiative to hold his hand.

He hopes that he can bring strength to his father, and no matter what the wind and waves, he will accompany him!

His father looked at him gratefully, knowing all that he wanted. And he also realized that after so many years, his son is finally with him, and this is enough.

The interview ended in a peaceful atmosphere.

After Su Shi'an left the prison, his authentication identity in micro-time and space was also changed from "the only son of the main culprit who caught the death case" to "a new member of Tiangongmen".

In the past, he has been indulging in this identity, taking revenge on others and himself.

……

At the same time, the door of Mrs. Guan's house was gently knocking.

Mrs. Kwan stopped what she was doing, opened the door as soon as she saw the visitor's face, and then hurriedly closed the door vigorously.

Liu Mo raised a hand to support the door, and called softly and aggrievedly: "Auntie, why did you close the door as soon as you saw me?"

"Do you remember me? I'm Momo! You used to be like your own daughter. Every time I come to your house to play, you will make dumplings for me to eat. The dumplings you made tasted so good, I still remember them!"

Mrs. Kwan looked at her overly beautiful face, but finally sighed softly and relaxed her force to push the door.

"Momo...... Linden has never been with me, why did you break up back then, but I, a mother, know that he is very painful! Since you were able to leave him so ruthlessly, why did you hurt him like that, why do you want to come back now?"

Liu Mo lowered her head apologetically and said softly: "Auntie, I know that everything happened back then was my fault, and I didn't cherish Linden well. But I'm not here today for Linden, I'm worried about your aunt'......."

"Recently, I often see on the news, the son of the main culprit 'whitewashing' news, that old case is often on the hot search, I just think, aunt will be sad if she sees it, Linden is not by your side, I have had a relationship with him after all, I can't be a lover but also a friend, so I want to replace him to accompany you. ”

Her words reached Mrs. Guan's heart, and they also made her beat her chest in pain.

"yes, yes...... How can it be so easy to forgive...... Then what about the orphans and widows in our family who have suffered all these years?!"

Liu Mo stepped forward and hugged her at the right time, and gently rested her head on her shoulder.

"Auntie, although I can't go back with Ah Linden, you can still treat me as your own daughter!

Mrs. Kwan looked at her sadly, when people are vulnerable, their hearts are always the softest. After a brief hesitation, she finally opened the door.

"Good boy...... It's hard for you to have a heart. Come in first. "To watch the new chapter of zui please go to the mobile address.
