26. Another 21st Century (6)
After the bandage on Yang Yu's wound was removed, it was already late autumn, and Su Yi came back from the company early on this day, and after the family doctor left, he smiled at Yang Yu: "I ordered dinner outside, let's go out to eat together to celebrate your physical recovery." ”
Yang Yu looked at the smile on his face intently, and saw Su Yi's stiff smile until the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, so he looked away lightly, and nodded lightly: "Okay." ”
Su Yi breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and then couldn't help but laugh again. He took out a box from the drawer, opened it and took out a mini gun from it and handed it to Yang Yu, Yang Yu lowered his eyes slightly, it was the one he left by his side before, glanced at him, and said lightly: "You can keep this gun." ”
"I don't use a gun, and I won't use it."
"You just keep it for self-defense, just take it as a gift from me......" Seeing that the corners of Su Yi's eyes were slightly raised, and they were full of a shallow smile, Yang Yu instructed softly, "Don't let me have a chance to touch this gun when I am with me in the future, otherwise it will ......."
Su Yi wanted to take the gun back into the box, but after thinking about it, he took it out again and put it in the pocket on the inside of his clothes, and said casually: "How about it?" ”
Yang Yu smiled: "Otherwise, I will kill you." ”
Su Yi also laughed, because he thought Yang Yu was joking.
There is a large lake in the center of the city, which is said to have been dug when the canal was opened in ancient times, and the lights around the lake are prosperous, and the night view is very beautiful. There is an old street on the east bank, which is full of antique buildings, antique, but in the eyes of Yang Yu and Su Yi, who once really lived in ancient times, it looks very fake. The restaurant that Su Yi booked is on this old street.
So as soon as he sat down, Yang Yu couldn't help but complain: "Why do you want to eat here, haven't you lived enough in ancient times?" ”
"It's a beautiful place, with mountains and water, and it's quiet." Su Yi picked up the wine bottle and poured a little wine for the goblets in front of the two of them, three percent full, the crimson liquid slowly rippled in the transparent wine glass, and the lights above his head shot from all directions, brilliant. Su Yi picked up the wine glass, raised it slightly, and smiled lightly: "Cheers, congratulations on your recovery." ”
I don't know how many injuries I have suffered since I was a child, there are countless gunshot wounds and knife wounds, but no one has ever said to him "Congratulations on your recovery". Yang Yu looked at the wine glass in front of him, and suddenly felt that his heart was at peace that he had never felt before.
He also raised his wine glass, and with the sound of "bell", the two people held their glasses and touched, and the crimson liquid seemed to reflect the water and mountains outside the window, filling a small world of three thousand.
And the world is at his fingertips.
Yang Yu suddenly felt a satisfaction that she had never experienced spread to her limbs, and her heart was warm from ironing.
"You know, I never thought that one day, I'd sit with someone else and drink and eat."
"That was before, and now you can imagine."
"You're right." Yang Yu lowered his eyes, quietly looked at the rest of the wine in the glass, pursed his lips and smiled faintly, but this smile was a little bitter no matter how he looked at it, hiding a lot of feelings that Su Yi couldn't understand.
"I've not always been alone...... A long time ago, my brother and sister lived with me. Our house was a big courtyard, and in the countryside where there were very few people, Master never allowed us to go out without permission, and we were very young at that time, so we were always curious about the world outside the door. There was an osmanthus tree in the yard, I had never seen such a big osmanthus tree again, and I could look through the courtyard wall and see outside when I climbed to the top of the treetop. Although there are only endless fields, my junior brother and I still enjoy it. As soon as Master went out, we would climb up the tree together and stare into the distance. ”
"My brother is seven years older than me, and he doesn't talk to us much when I am sensible, and he always stays alone in his room, secretly reading medical books that Master does not allow him to read. I later learned that it was because I was older, and I could always understand things that I couldn't understand when I was younger. The helplessness and sorrow of life were understood by my brother many years earlier than me, so after he was freed, he chose to give up all his money and status and opened a small clinic on his own. ”
Yang Yu's words were faint, his eyes were a little misty, and he said the words he mentioned for the first time in many years. Su Yi knew that he was trapped in a distant memory, so he just sat quietly opposite him and listened to him quietly.
"You know, I'm ...... Master too, he has been engaged in this profession all his life, I have never seen him have friends, he told me that we can only carry loneliness in this life, he said that this is fate. There are too many enemies, and the master knows that he won't live long, so he will pick up the orphans he meets and take them home, not because he is kind, but because he is unwilling to end like this, he wants to cultivate an heir and pass on his life's skills. But he never imagined that he would not die at the hands of his enemies in the end, but at the hands of disciples he had cultivated for seven years...... I shot at him that day, and I watched him fall in front of my eyes, and it rained a lot that night, and he was wet, and the floor under him was also wet, I don't know if it was rain or blood...... I saw him at the last moment and smiled at me......"
Yang Yu felt that his whole body became cold, and he remembered that smile again, he had restrained himself from thinking about that night for so many years, because every time he thought about it, he would feel like a cold place. The man's dying laugh was so terrible, in the wet night, sarcastic, cold, vicious, cursed......
Then, of the three of them, he was the only one who carried this curse, the loneliness that the man had borne during his lifetime, and continued to walk on the road that never saw the light of day, and walked and walked and walked......
"Actually, I may not have a position on what I said," Su Yi's soft voice pulled Yang Yu out of the dark past, he raised his head in a daze, and looked at the handsome man in front of him, "Maybe...... I mean, maybe, your master saved you and raised you, will it not be because he is unwilling, but just hoping that someone in this world will remember him......"
Seeing Yang Yu's unbelievably wide eyes, and seeing the shock in those eyes, Su Yi paused, and suddenly felt a little unbearable. But he still has to say that this knot has entangled Yang Yu for so many years, and the authorities are confused, if he doesn't untie it, he won't be able to get out of it for the rest of his life. "A person who has lived for so many years, but is always a person, has no friends, no relatives, so he will be afraid of death, because once he is dead, no one will remember him, he will not leave the slightest trace in this world as if he never appeared. Think about it, how terrible that must be? Therefore, your master may just be afraid of disappearing quietly like this, and he saved you just in the hope of leaving traces in this world to prove that he lived. ”
A look of collapse suddenly appeared on Yang Yu's face, he leaned back in his chair and muttered, "Then why...... Why did he ask me to kill Xiao Yu......"
Su Yi was speechless, and only after a while did he say lightly: "Did you really kill your junior brother?" ”
It rained heavily, probably the heaviest rain of the year.
"Bang-"
The fingertips of the wrench were trembling, and he fell into the rain with the backlash force, and the gun rolled far away, and the palm of his hand rubbed against the ground, and the red blood mixed into the muddy water. Bullets erupted from the chamber of the gun, grazing the young man's pale cheeks and into the endless darkness behind him.
"Senior Brother--help me-"
Xiao Yu fell in front of him like this, his eyes were full of infinite sadness and affection, he seemed to be injured by his gaze, and there was only a blank space left in his mind, standing in place like a wooden man......
"No...... No...... I didn't kill Xiao Yu," Yang Yu hugged his head and muttered like a demon, "I didn't hit him with that shot......"
"Okay, okay," Su Yi regretted it very much, he knew that he shouldn't be forced so hard, although some acne had to be removed, it was not necessary to pull it out at one time, he left his seat, squatted down and hugged him, his eyes were unstoppably distressed, and he gently stroked his back, like stroking a helpless child, "Don't think about this, let's go home?" Is it okay to go home? Let's go home. ”
Yang Yu grabbed Su Yi's sleeve tightly, buried his head deep in Su Yi's shoulder, his tone trembled, he couldn't form an army, and he was as fragile as a child: "I remembered, I remembered everything......"
God says that the light shines in the darkness, but the darkness does not receive the light.
That's just because the human heart is too fragile to shrink into a dark corner with memories of self-deception rather than let all the wounds disappear under the light of the light. And they call it "fate."
