Chapter 333: Freedom (Ending)
Xu Hong sat on Chen Li's body and writhed gently and gently...... "Of course you won't do stupid things, so, of course, you will beware of the demon's holy light. We'll continue to be partners, and we'll always be ...... Do you still remember the fortune that Lan Yishui told us? Unless we fail, if we fail, of course we will die together. It was our fate to die in the same month and in the same year—but I loved it! ”
There was no sound to speak.
At the top of the mountain, the night wind is gusting.
Chen Li and Xu Hong, as in the past, hugged and lingered with each other.
There are no distractions.
Xu Hong is very excited because she sees the future and the ideal future.
Chen Li was silent.
And not just because he wasn't interested in thinking about anything else at the moment.
What's more, sacrificing himself to destroy the demons in his heart, he wouldn't even think about it - when the sky is getting brighter.
The faint red energy mass suddenly doubled in size.
Xu Hong lay on Chen Li's chest.
When she was too tired, she fell asleep like this.
When he woke up, Chen Li had already woken up, and he was looking at the heart demon Rafa who was lying quietly on the ground beside him.
Xu Hong turned her head and smiled.
"Get the light of yours, and overnight it will grow into the Lord of Rafah."
The phone rings.
Xu Hong lazily stretched out her hand, picked it up, and looked at it.
When he handed it to Chen Li, he smiled.
"Xu Zhengxin's."
Chen Li connected.
"Are you free now? How about morning tea at Yiyuan Restaurant? ”
"Okay."
"Half past seven, the private room on the left on the second floor."
"Okay."
When she hung up the phone, Xu Hong was already wearing a skirt.
"I knew there would always be times when she couldn't hold back. I stayed at her house for two nights and she would call your name when she dreamed. ”
Chen Li listened silently.
Xu Hong combed her hair, smiled, and looked at Chen Li.
"You have a problem talking in your sleep, and you have called her name."
"Have I ever called your name?"
Chen Li was still lying on the ground, looking at Xu Hong directly, and asked without any expression.
"If I say yes, will you believe it?"
Xu Hong buttoned Chen Li and smiled sweetly.
"Faith."
Xu Hong's smile became even thicker.
"Let's go, don't keep her waiting."
Chen Li glanced at his watch, indeed, he really shouldn't let Xu Zhengxin wait for a long time.
It's half past six now.
The white bat is parked at the entrance of the Art Garden Hotel.
"You use the car."
Xu Hong smiled and nodded, not saying anything meaningless.
When one party has something, the other party will drive a bat to pick it up, and whoever uses it will be the same.
After Chen Li got out of the car.
A strange woman, getting in the car.
Xu Hong looked at the woman who got into the car for a while and smiled.
"The hostel you just found?"
"Expose her to the GDF and let them carry out their mission to encircle and suppress, right?"
The woman smiled, puffing out her chest proudly.
"The GDF won't know that you've become the Lord of Rafa, and a random Rafa will let them be led by the nose."
Yes, the woman who got on the bus was Rafa.
"Just let the Holy Light meet with Xu Zhengxin of the GDF? Shouldn't human women care about this kind of thing? ”
Xu Hong smiled indifferently.
"What I care about is life. Everything else can be put on the back burner - of course, if there is a chance in the future, I won't mind killing Xu Zhengxin easily. A woman who gets pleasure from my man, if she has to pay the price, can only be considered unlucky. ”
The car started, and the white bat slowly drove out of the parking lot...... Art Garden.
Second floor.
Xu Zhengxin and Chen Li sat next to each other in a position.
"What you said last night, I thought about it seriously."
When Chen Li closed the door of the private room, the first thing he said when he met was not a polite scene.
Xu Zhengxin was a little cramped and silent.
It wasn't until Chen Li sat down that she raised her head and asked rhetorically.
"And then?"
"I think you have a point. Li Fei's words may not be the truth—but there is no basis for his words. Li Fei not only told me those values, but also proved those values with her actions, her choices, and her attitude. But if you veto her, just by saying it, it's hard for someone like me to believe it. Is that right? ”
Xu Zhengxin bit his lower lip lightly, and his mood became a little nervous.
"So, what do you think I should do?"
"Of course, it's a matter of course—"
Chen Li smiled slightly, picked up the teapot, and slowly poured tea for Xu Zhengxin.
"Li Fei said that there is no truly one, divine love in time; But you said there was. Then, you love me with this kind of love, and if you do it, then of course I will abandon what Li Fei said and believe in you - and believe in myself in the past. ”
Xu Zhengxin silently held the teacup in both hands, pretending to be tasting tea.
She didn't expect Chen Li to be so straightforward.
She was nervous.
"Aren't you with Xu Hong?"
"I have feelings for her, but not the feelings of love, nor the relationship of love. In fact, it doesn't matter, if there is really the kind of love in the world that you say, in this case, shouldn't you just love me regardless of everything? As for whether I love you or whether anyone else loves me, it can't affect your love for me, right? ”
Chen Li said, picked up the teacup, moved his seat, and became sitting next to Xu Zhengxin.
This was not enough, he also turned sideways, staring at Xu Zhengxin, who was already very nervous and even embarrassed, without blinking.
"It makes no sense......"
"Don't divert from the topic - we martial arts practitioners, be quick and simple, just do it, and if you can't do it, you can't do it. If you insist that there is that kind of love in the world, then put it into practice; Otherwise, it's not at all, and don't say anything to make me believe. ”
Chen Li drank tea leisurely.
He was curious, curious about how Xu Zhengxin would answer.
He liked the conversation with Xu Hong last night, and he liked the conversation with Xu Zhengxin at this moment.
Not knowing what they were thinking, such speculation and mystery made him feel very happy.
But in comparison, because Xu Hong has spent more time together and knows each other too well, Chen Li can still speculate on her thoughts.
Xu Zhengxin is not.
Chen Li actually doesn't know much about her.
All that is known is her past.
Xu Hong said that he once said Xu Zhengxin's name in a dream.
He wasn't surprised by this.
He used to only stay at the level of fantasy about women's bodies, and before high school, the only time he saw a little spring light through the wide short sleeves of female classmates.
That was still in junior high school.
What is really seen and touched in reality, Xu Zhengxin is the first.
For Xu Zhengxin, there is something in his heart, and he feels that it is normal.
"I'm not experienced, you say, what do you do?"
Xu Zhengxin gave an answer that made Chen Li very happy.
She is really willing to use her actions to tell Chen Li that Li Fei's values are wrong.
"Love comes first...... That is, to give up anything for love, such as giving up being a savior, leaving GDF, giving up revenge......"
Xu Zhengxin's mouth was tightly closed, and the shy embarrassment on his face disappeared without a trace at this time.
Chen Li observed Xu Zhengxin's expression and reaction very carefully.
Her reaction at this moment did not surprise him at all.
"You...... Are you kidding? ”
Yes, Xu Zhengxin couldn't believe it.
Abandoning man's responsibility to the world? Give up the blood feud?
"It should be that we work together to fight against the demons and protect the world we live in; Revenge together...... That's right? ”
"Egoism – typical egoism!"
Chen Li's voice was loud, but his tone was not serious.
He also exaggeratedly banged on the table with his hand, looking like relying on the old and selling the old and reprimanding the young people.
"Tie love to the ideals you need, ask the other person to help you and do what is good for you. This is typical egoism – either or not, young people with this mentality! ”
Xu Zhengxin burst into laughter.
thought Chen Li was really joking.
"Then I can't blame you, how can you set such a standard? The blood feud cannot be avenged, and protecting the country in which you live is protecting your own future, how can this responsibility be discarded? Set such a standard, how can people get it? ”
Chen Li smiled lightly and answered.
"Then prove it to me when you're done with these things."
Xu Zhengxin was stunned.
Only then did she realize that Chen Li's tone seemed to be joking, but in fact, it was serious.
"You...... What does this mean? Is it a serious refusal, or a tactful refusal? ”
"Seriously. It's just that I don't want to force you to do it because you're serious. Since these two things must be done for you, I can only wait for you to finish them. ”
Xu Zhengxin stared at Chen Li for a while, and only after confirming the true intention of Chen Li's words did he look away...... After leaving the Art Garden Restaurant.
Chen Li called Da Xiong and Wang Cheng.
"Starting today, Uncle Ben has time, in order to celebrate my free new life, you are responsible for arranging the show, remember to call Boss Tang and Boss Song."
After a while, the alarm clock called.
"There's a show today, I said I'd go to Daxian Taoist Temple together, will you go?"
“…… Go ahead, I might as well find the water and go to the beach! Did I spend the first day of my beautiful new life at the Taoist Temple? You want me to strangle you—"
Chen Li gritted his teeth angrily.
The alarm clock on the other end of the phone couldn't stop laughing.
"That night, we'll call you when we come back in the evening, and we're going to punish Boss Song for drinking tonight, and he borrowed the phone to flash last night......"
Chen Li laughed while listening, he hadn't been so happy for a long time.
He really didn't go to the Taoist temple, but went on a yacht date with Yi Shushui on the sea for a whole day.
When he was about to go to the night event, he called Xu Hong.
"Are you coming?"
"No, take a bunch of cute kids at night and kill all the people sent by the damn God Organization to Shengzhen City. Are you coming? ”
Chen Li smiled.
"I called you, and you called me again. I'm not coming, you can fix it anyway. From today onwards, I will be the shopkeeper, oh no, the god who is enshrined in the temple of the Great Heart Demon. Don't work, just enjoy. I am not interested in participating in the great plan of the demons, and I am not interested in being the savior. If you like to work hard, you just toss outside. ”
"Figured it out?"
"Figured it out. I'm going to go to Beishi after a while, and Li Fei's husband wants me to be their child's godfather, so let's go with your godmother when the time comes. ”
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Li greeted Yi Chuan and got on the water.
I saw several men staring at her.
He couldn't help but laugh, and deliberately shouted viciously at the men from afar to threaten - "What do you see? Looking for death—"
Those men stared at Chen Li indignantly, but they were not evildoers, although they were not convinced, but they also had many scruples of ordinary people, and after hesitating for a while, they still chose to remain silent and just look away as if they didn't hear.
Chen Li smiled and sat in the driver's seat with his stomach in his hands.
"It's funny, actually, it's always mixed up in some, and the money you make doesn't have time to enjoy; It's said that it's a big brother, and I don't have a chance to shake the majesty of being a big brother; Let's say it's a rich man, the yacht Xu Hong bought, and I'm only sitting for the first time now! ”
Chen Li said, starting the bat.
Yi Shushui didn't know what Chen Li had experienced, which caused earth-shaking changes in his thinking.
But it's nice to be like this today.
"I also think Brother Dao was too tired before."
Chen Li drove the bat with a smile on his face and enjoyed the fun of overtaking all the way.
GDF is unreliable, greatness may be great, but greatness stands too high and sees too far, so it is as ruthless as heaven.
Chen Li did not sacrifice his spirit to destroy the demons in his heart.
So, he has no interest in being a hero.
He was even less interested in helping the demons.
Since there is such an existence as greatness, and the future fate of this planet has already been arranged, then why should he have nothing to do?
Ditch the.
Find his own ease.
The sage he admired the most was Lao Tzu, who had always disliked Confucius.
In the past, he didn't understand why.
Now he understands, because he feels that the realm of Confucius and Lao Tzu is different, or rather, there is a gap.
Confucius's life was full of twists and turns, and he had countless disciples.
What he does is exactly what he knows he can't do, and he takes glorifying and creating a bright world as his ideal; Lao Tzu is different, wisdom is like him, but he interprets what is the inaction of the avenue, that is freedom.
"Chen Li, there has been a big operation recently, and the meeting place is in ......"
The call was made by Xu Qing, saying that Rafa, who had discovered the demons in his heart.
Chen Li didn't say anything, Rafa? The kings of Rafa already exist, and the GDF is still chasing Rafa?
"Needless to say, our agreement was clear. Even if the cooperation has already ended, I'm just a nominal member of the Security Bureau, and I only manage the things that endanger social stability on the roads of the city, and don't look for me in the major affairs of the Security Bureau, and I'm not interested in interfering. ”
"Chen Li, don't be whimsical......"
"If that's whimsical, then I'll put it another way. I almost died that day, and I was left with a mental scar, no way to fight again, and if it wasn't for the trauma, I would have suffered so much that I lost even my normal thinking skills. Although I am full of a heart to contribute and serve the country, I am forced by reality to reluctantly retreat——"
"Chen Li......"
Chen Li didn't wait for Xu Qing to continue, so he hung up the phone decisively and simply.
When the car passed by the area of the seaside villa, he saw the seaside, Lin Qing and Chen Yi holding hands and strolling...... In fact, from the time they met for the first time, Chen Li envied this pair of golden boys and girls in his heart.
They are happy.
Moreover, they also know how to cherish happiness, they ignore irrelevant things, and they will not destroy the happiness they are having for something sacred and great.
This kind of happiness is what Chen Li has longed for for many years but cannot obtain.
To this day, it is still unavailable.
2006.
The business of the Gang Society is still stable.
Because of Xu Hong, the community is a pillar enterprise in the province.
Big Bear is still passionate about things on the road, and so is the alarm clock.
Wang Cheng put aside the affairs of the road and became the general manager of the Yi Group. At night, he often mingles with the big bear, the alarm clock, and Boss Song in the Fengyue place, which is not as good as the beasts.
In 2005, An Yi ended her long wanderings.
In Shengzhen City, the company was opened, and in just one year, it has more than 300,000 employees, most of whom are poor students who have completed their studies and funded by her in the past. These people carry the gratitude to An Yi and the spirit of An Yi's inheritance, so they work hard outside of their jobs, and almost all of them are workaholics.
So much so that the corporate image has become proud of being fully engaged in work.
Xu Hong, who cooperated with the heart demon, was preparing to enter the noon courtyard in Beishi.
This is still the result of her leisure.
Because of the scruples of the two-headed god of the front gate.
It wasn't until 2006 that the two-headed gods began to exert their strength after one died and the other returned to nothingness.
When Chen Li sent her to the airport, Xu Hong was very proud.
"If you bump into someone on the street, there's a good chance you're a demon boarder. Now, the political power is in the hands of Farah, that is, in the hands of me, Xu Hong...... My dear, come to Beishi early, don't let me worry about it for too long. ”
Xu Hong smiled sweetly and passed the ticket gate.
Chen Li was used to her state of being so obsessed with power.
He has no interest, and in the past few years he has been at ease and very comfortable.
The Light of the Demon of the Heart...... He didn't have to do anything, because he was like God on the cross, except that he lived.
Chen Li drove the car, and when he passed by the seaside villa, he saw a figure standing on the seaside at sunset.
It's Chen Yi, who hasn't seen each other for a long time.
Lin Qing was not by his side.
Because Lin Qing has passed away, just half a month ago.
Chen Li hesitated for a moment and drove away.
There is a kind of person in this world, no matter what pain he has suffered, he does not need to be comforted by others, not because he hates to be sympathized, but because he can see through it, so he can accept life and death.
Chen Li believes that Chen Yi is such a person.
Torrential rain poured in.
Chen Li parked his car on the shoulder of the road, drove his laptop, played video games and listened to music.
The phone rang suddenly.
"Yo, weird. Vice Minister Xu is not busy saving the world, why did he suddenly remember to call me? ”
"It's more exaggerated - it's not like I haven't been in touch for half a month."
"I'm not seen for a while, as if every other three autumns."
"To be serious, what you said three and a half years ago doesn't count?"
Chen Li searched his memory slightly.
quickly determined what Xu Zhengxin was talking about.
That day in the art garden, he said that he wanted Xu Zhengxin to prove it with actions.
However, it was impossible for Xu Zhengxin to let go of his hatred and his responsibilities as the deputy minister of the GDF.
So, wait so far.
Zhao Zhengming was finished early in the morning, and the alarm clock was very 'polite' to beat Zhao Zhengming to a cripple, and Zhao Qi died of an overdose of drugs shortly after Zhao Zhengming's downfall. So Zhao Zhengming had no livelihood to rely on, and he is still begging in the area of Huanggang Village.
Xu Zhengxin didn't go to see him.
After hearing about him, he only said two words: 'he deserves it'.
Zhao Zhengming fell under the actions of the Security Bureau, and the fire was killed by the blow of the Security Bureau, and his power was uprooted.
"I'll be in North City in two days."
"It just so happens that Wenwen Woman's husband Pug has just opened a hotel, and she let you cheer you on when we met the day before yesterday. When you come, bring Zixuan with you, I promised to be a tour guide for her at the end of the month, and take her to play in Beishi for a few days. ”
"Wouldn't it? Can Vice Minister Xu have this effort? ”
"It's endless."
Xu Zhengxin on the other end of the phone slowed down his tone after an unhappy tone.
"I have asked the minister to resign, and now I am a vagrant."
"Yo, the chairman of the Xu Kee Consortium said that he was a jobless vagrant - how could this make me embarrassed as an idle person?"
"Before you come here, make a call, and I'll pick you up."
Chen Li agreed with a smile.
He closed his notebook.
The white bat, which started quickly in the rain, passed through the rain curtain like a meteor, and drove away—
