Chapter 175: Guilty Confession
I don't know when they started to be easy. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info compared to those boys of the same age, they are more like men.
For 20-year-old boys, whether they can participate in terrorist attacks, or the great turmoil in country M, or the vendetta of the underworld, they seem to be full of curiosity and eager to try. And for these people who are really immersive and about their age, they are constantly adapting to their lives, gradually talking and laughing in the landslides, becoming the envy and attention of countless people, and becoming the protagonists of stories in other people's mouths, maybe sometimes they will yearn for peace, maybe they may be afraid of the stray bullets that will wipe their scalps at a certain moment after a war, but more often, they will laugh out loud without care.
Because they all know that in the face of all this, they can only laugh.
When Song Renliang returned to Tangkou, the underground clans in the entire Jiangzhou City received the news one after another, and before they could make any moves, another piece of news had already exploded in their ears like thunder.
Those who betrayed the Blue Dragon Gang had already applied to Song Renliang for peace talks, or rather, surrender.
It is not uncommon for the forces of the underworld to fall into each other, even the towering tree will collapse one day, and for the rest of the people, the fallen tree will naturally become their nourishment to feed themselves.
The infighting of the Qinglong Gang, they didn't dare to get involved, because if they intervened sideways when the two tigers were fighting, they would only become the target of the two tigers' joint attack, so they were all waiting, they were waiting, waiting for the victory and defeat to be divided, waiting for others to rush up first, waiting for themselves to follow behind to pick up the cheap.
But now the result they are waiting for is that the party that has tried so hard to betray the Blue Dragon Gang will surrender and admit defeat, which is something that none of them expected, and after hearing that Song Renliang gave Xue Zimu a punch in the chest, he pulled the person directly to the inner hall, which shocked the glasses even more.
Even if they accept the surrender of the other party, they can't even leave the main culprit alone, isn't this really a scene directed and acted by the Blue Dragon Gang in order to test them? This thought flashed through the hearts of countless people.
At this time, in the inner hall at the entrance of the main hall of the Qinglong Gang, Xiang Lei, who had been staying in this room for the past few days, had already gone out, and only Song Renliang and Xue Zimu were left in the house.
"I'm back. Song Renliang still smiled heartily and patted Xue Zimu's shoulder, but this slap was like softening Xue Zimu's bones, and his shoulders were no longer as tight and powerful as usual, and he knelt straight to Song Renliang.
"What are you doing?!" Song Renliang was shocked and hurriedly wanted to help Xue Zimu up, but Xue Zimu's knees seemed to have taken root on the ground, so he didn't get up.
The smile on Song Renliang's face also slowly converged, tensed, and straightened up, waiting for Xue Zimu's explanation.
But Xue Zimu never explained, didn't explain, and didn't get up, but his breathing became heavier and heavier, and his fists clenched tighter and tighter, as if some kind of emotion in his chest was unbearable.
"Except for the first time when you worshiped your ancestors, you never knelt down to me. ”
Xue Zimu still didn't say a word, so he knelt there straight, looking down at the floor tiles, not daring to look at Song Renliang.
Yes, he never knelt down on him, because they have always been brothers, but all this has changed the moment he betrayed, no matter whether Song Renliang forgives him or not, for him, everything is already different.
There was no way for him to laugh heartily with Song Renliang anymore, he could no longer drink unconscious with him, and there was no way to accept his forgiveness calmly, just as he himself could never forgive his betrayal.
Song Renliang looked at Xue Zimu like this and frowned deeply, just like Yan Leng said, after so many years of brotherhood, he couldn't see it as clearly as Yan Leng.
This morning, before coming here, they all listened to Cen Ge tell him what happened here, and Yan Leng told him this at that time.
"Xue Zimu is a very thoughtful person, you may have to work hard. ”
"Rest assured, our brothers for so many years. ”
“…… Have you ever thought that since he can come back and take on everything now, why did he believe Cai Yonggui and the Zhao family in the first place, thinking that you have changed?"
And his answer was that it was all Cai Yonggui and the villains of the Zhao family who were bewitched.
But now that he saw Xue Zimu like this, he understood what Yan Leng meant by his heavy thoughts.
For Xue Zimu, he really has to put a lot of thought into it.
"Get up. Song Renliang's voice was not as full of enthusiasm as it had been after a long absence, but became very cold.
Xue Zimu was stunned for a moment, and then heard Song Renliang say even colder, "Get up!"
With obvious anger, Xue Zimu hesitated for a moment, but still stood up, but his eyes kept staring at Song Renliang's shadow on the floor tiles, and he still didn't dare to look at him.
"Look up. ”
Xue Zimu lowered his head even lower, he remembered countless times the days when they fought the world together, at that time, his nose was often blue and his face was swollen, and even being slashed more than a dozen times was commonplace, but it was the first time in his life that he had such pain, and when facing Song Renliang, this pain became even more unbearable.
Song Renliang was angry for a while, his brother's mind for many years was really unusual, everyone came back, but the people who could nag became silent, this kind of gap was simply difficult for Song Renliang to accept.
Breathe deeply.
finally came back alive from the siege of the killer, and he couldn't let this kid die of anger, it was too unjust to die like this. Whoever makes himself a big brother and a big brother is destined to worry about this guy.
"You come with me. ”
Song Renliang dragged Xue Zimu into his usual place in the inner hall, pushed the person in, slammed the door with his backhand, took out two cans of beer from the refrigerator, and forcibly stuffed one of the cans into Xue Zimu's hand, "Drink." ”
A simple word, and then he opened the can in his hand, seeing that Xue Zimu was holding the can of beer so stupidly, he didn't mean to drink it at all, and after scolding "stupid", he stuffed the can he had just opened in his hand to Xue Zimu, and then took the can of wine in his hand.
Open it.
As usual, he clinked glasses with Xue Zimu and drank it.
Xue Zimu's eyes were red, this scene was too familiar, every time there was a big victory or a small victory, there were still unspeakable words, they tacitly took a bag of beer, went to the rooftop, banged the glass, and then drank it all night.
Xue Zimu didn't speak, just drank silently, because he didn't know how to open his mouth and what to say, so he just drank wine.
And Song Renliang touched the cup with him from time to time, and all he said was "Do you remember ......", "We ...... that time", "I still remember ......"
From being sober to being drunk, from every word being clear to every sentence being blurred, from sitting cross-legged to lying on the ground and rolling upside down, they drank for a long time, talked for a long time, drank not much, but talked a lot, and just like that, when they woke up, it was already dawn.
"Lao Ran left early, the brothers around me have to count on one hand, in the gang, except for General Xiang, there is only you left, Zimu, this road is too long, I can't see where the end is, you are happy to let go, but after so many years brother, you have left all the difficult things to me, don't you feel sorry for you?"
"It's easy to die, it's hard to live!"
"I don't know if you really feel sorry for me or want to quit, you know, I can't kill you at all, so you just want me to get rid of you, you don't have to be busy every day, you can leave it alone. ”
"I don't ......"
"Don't explain it to me! Do you think you're very powerful? Do you think you can resist everything? I'll tell you, you can't resist it! Whoever should bear it will be the one who bears it, and no one can replace it. Song Renliang took advantage of the wine, stood up suddenly, forcibly endured the dizziness in his head, and kicked Xue Zimu fiercely, but he also fell.
"But this was originally my fault, can you still not carry it!?"
"Do you think I'll let you go so easily? Xue Zimu, I don't mention the gang rules for a few days, and I'm not a gang leader, so I'll ask you, do you treat me as a brother? Or is the so-called Iron Triangle just a rumor, just my wishful thinking?!" Song Renliang had never said such cruel words in his life, and he never thought that the first time he said it would be against Xue Zimu, which he never expected.
Although Xue Zimu felt guilty in his heart, he still felt that Song Renliang's anger was really sudden and evil, but he could hear that Song Renliang really felt angry and sad.
Xue Zimu really knows Song Renliang too well, he knows that Song Renliang always seems to be a drunken person on weekdays, and he doesn't seem to care about anything, but it's like a person who is picky to the extreme, if it is his brothers, friends, and relatives who are in the circle, once betrayed, it will be an almost fatal knife.
So, he was haunted by his betrayal.
As a result, Song Renliang still admitted the title of "Iron Triangle" in person, and even asked him if this was his wishful thinking, which made him unable to answer.
He remembered that the first time he and Song Renliang faced countless knives back to back, they hid under a carport in a pouring rain, and that was the first time that Song Renliang admitted that he was a brother.
At that time, they were still very young and immature, but at that time, he knew that Song Renliang's definition of friends and brothers was too rigid and critical, because at that time he said to him, "You remember, I recognize you as a brother." ”
Later, when the Qinglong Gang was booming, someone found him and threatened him with his girlfriend who had been with him for a long time, and asked him to stab Song Renliang in the back, saying that it was fake that he had not struggled, because he really loved her, but in the end, he still didn't agree, but he didn't refuse.
So, at that time, he didn't know if he didn't agree in his heart, or if he didn't find the right opportunity, or at that moment, he finally hesitated.
Later, he learned that Song Renliang knew about that incident at all, and had already arranged everything, found out the other party's whereabouts, and was completely prepared to rescue his girlfriend.
At that time, he asked Song Renliang why, why he knew the existence of a person who might stab him in the back, but he still fought side by side with him with confidence, and dared to hand over his back to such a person.
He still remembers that Song Renliang said at that time, I said, I recognize you as a brother, as long as you don't stab you with this knife, I will still recognize you as a brother.
At that time, he remembered what they said word for word, and now, after all, he still stabbed this knife, and he would choose to forgive, which made him dare not believe it and dare not accept it.
"Don't speak? I said so much, don't you say a word?" Song Renliang propped himself up from the ground with one arm, grabbed Xue Zimu's collar, and stared at Xue Zimu with drunken but extraordinarily bright eyes, as if he was still awake.
But Xue Zimu really knew Song Renliang too well, he knew that he was already drunk, because he never grabbed the other party's collar when he was sober, especially the brother he admitted, no matter when, he would give the other party all the respect.
"You can forgive me, but I can't forgive myself, this matter should be borne by me. With the drunk Song Renliang, Xue Zimu gradually spoke.
"Before I came back, in front of everyone, I said that I would take everything, and tomorrow, I will be dealt with according to the gang rules, this is what should be explained to everyone, you are the gang leader...... If you still admit that I am your brother, you should dispose of me with your own hands and kill me. ”
"According to the gang rules, betrayal is a serious crime and should be punished with capital punishment. After burning incense tomorrow to confess the crime, whether it is to break the limbs, share the food with the wild dogs, or to cut three knives and six holes, and bleed to wash away the sin, in fact, it is good. Because you are the leader of the gang, and I was your brother, you should deal with me more severely, so that you can serve the people. ”
Xue Zimu's speed of speaking is a little different from his usual ones, on weekdays, he is always a little nagging, and his speed of speech is a little fast, but he makes people hear every word clearly, and when he speaks, it makes people feel both cordial and majestic, coupled with the excellent relationship with the gang leader Song Renliang, his prestige in the gang is extremely high.
But today, he spoke slowly, or rather, very slowly, almost as if he were telling his last words to his brother. If punished according to the gang rules he said, these were indeed his last words.
"Are you going to take the blame? Do you want me to let Cai Yonggui go? What does this matter have to do with you?!" Song Renliang was a little drunk and not very sober, but maybe Xue Zimu's speech was too slow, or maybe what he said was too clear, Song Renliang felt that every harsh word was desperately drilling into his ears.
"I am the person with the highest position after the rebellion, I am the one with the highest position before the rebellion, I am the one who proposed the rebellion, I am the contact person, and I am the person who proposed it back, so naturally I should be fully responsible. As for Cai Yonggui, now is not the time to dispose of it, and when everything is calmed down, you can dispose of it at will. Xue Zimu had already thought everything clearly, or rather, as early as that conference, he had already explained everything.
"I, no, exactly!" Song Renliang was so angry that he punched Xue Zimu in the face. (To be continued.) )
