When Chen Dong returned to the funeral home in the western suburbs, it was almost 11 o'clock in the evening, and Uncle Sheng followed Chen Dong to the outside of the mourning hall, and for the first time, took off the gentleman's hat on his head.

Uncle Sheng is a member of the Mozi Society, so he also has a code name of his own, and this code name is called the hat.

But there are only a handful of people who have really seen Uncle Sheng take off his hat, of course, the old guy lying in the mourning hall now is an exception.

Tonight's Western Suburbs Funeral Home is full of hustle and bustle, and the lights are bright.

After Chen Dong left, the little wolf obeyed his instructions and called all the brothers who had stayed in Uncle Lin's house, and the entire mourning hall was full of people, and there were at least a few hundred people at a glance!

To tell a joke, if those powerful underworld bigwigs want to sweep Uncle Lin's field today, they will definitely sweep away a quasi-one, and they will not be met with any resistance at all.

Of course, if they really dare to do this, I am afraid that by the dawn of the next day, the entire Z City will be plunged into a terrible war.

Walking into the arena, Chen Dong finally saw a lot of brothers from the original boxing ring, but at this time, everyone had no intention of greeting the old days, and they were not in the mood to celebrate the return of Brother Dong, and everyone's faces were full of grief.

Chen Dong walked to each brother's side, silently gave them a hug, whispered a few words of comfort to each other, and then followed Uncle Sheng into the mourning hall.

In addition to these strong men, there are also many women with dusty faces who come to keep vigil for Uncle Lin today, and the laughter that sounded from time to time is incompatible with the solemnity of the mourning hall. But no one in the audience opened their mouths to reprimand.

Because as Chen Dong said, everyone knows that Uncle Lin likes women. I just hope that when he walks in the netherworld, he won't be too lonely.

Uncle Sheng looked at this scene in the mourning hall, seemed to guess Chen Dong's thoughts, and said with a faint smile: "You know the hobby of that old thing." ”

Chen Dong didn't answer, he stepped forward first, lit three pillars of incense, and handed it over to Uncle Sheng. A complicated emotion flashed in Uncle Sheng's eyes, and then he bowed slightly.

"Old thing, you just look at it from the sky. I won't let you down! With a silent sigh in his heart, Uncle Sheng looked up at the familiar smile in front of him again, and he didn't know when the corners of his eyes had moistened.

Uncle Sheng didn't stay too long after the worship. Before leaving, he carefully gave Chen Dong a few words. He left the funeral home.

The night is getting deeper, and the brothers who keep vigil have set up tables outside the mourning hall and played mahjong, speaking of which, this can be regarded as the custom of the vigil in Z City, perhaps to make the vitality here appear more vigorous and lively, so that the deceased people will not be afraid.

Chen Dong sat alone in the mourning hall. Some people are distracted, and they don't know what the road is about. The sadness that had been suppressed for a whole day suddenly came flooding in, and he hesitated a little.

During the day, Chen Dong was still fighting wits and courage with Tian Yu in C City, drenched in a rain, fought a shootout, and was chased by a few bamboo leaves and almost died, but after a phone call, Chen Dong returned to Z City.

After coming back, Chen Dong still continued to kill, stand up, negotiate, and even be shocked again and again in the Fenglin Club, everything is Chen Dong's hope to keep himself busy, so that he has no time to think, to feel, if he can, he even hopes that he can continue to be so busy, so that he can forget someone's death.

Boss, how can you just die?

A strong sense of exhaustion rushed to Chen Dong's brain like a tide, but Chen Dong didn't dare to close his eyes, because he was afraid that as soon as he closed his eyes, he would see the old man appear in front of his eyes, smiling and scolding him for being a stinky boy, and then when he opened his eyes, he could only find that it was a dream.

Remember, when was the first time you met your boss?

Ah, by the way, it was when I was 14 years old, the sky was blue, the wind was light, and I was running desperately on the streets.

On that day, Chen Dong, who was only 14 years old, suffered the greatest pain of his life, because of a fire, he lost two of the most important relatives in his life, and then fled all the way under the pursuit of that terrible old beggar.

It was at this time that he met his future boss, Uncle Lin, Lin Xiaoshan.

Chen Dong still clearly remembers that when Uncle Lin saw him for the first time, his eyes showed love and care, and he didn't know what Lu Dao was for, and at this moment, Chen Dong, who was only 14 years old, had an inexplicable trust in this middle-aged uncle.

"Kid, will you come with me?"

This was the first thing Uncle Lin said to Chen Dong, he didn't ask Chen Dong's name, nor did he ask where Chen Dong's parents were, but just like a human trafficker, he just asked Chen Dong to go with him!

Maybe it was the inexplicable sense of trust in his heart, or maybe it was the fear of being chased by the old beggar, in short, Chen Dong nodded incredulously, and then let the man he met for the first time take his hand and disappear at the end of the street.

Many years later, Chen Dong still secretly palpitates for his original choice, if Uncle Lin is really a demon who abducts and sells children for a living, maybe Chen Dong has been sold to a remote mountainous area again, and even died long ago, losing his important body organs.

Chen Dong also asked Uncle Lin more than once why he wanted to bring him to Z City and bring him into the boxing ring, but at this moment, Uncle Lin always kept his mouth shut, even after he was drunk, he was tight-lipped.

After growing up, Chen Dong once went back to Province H, and then he figured out that he had been abducted for the first time when he was 2 years old, and his adoptive parents in Province H had indeed died in the sudden fire.

It's just that too much time has passed, and Chen Dong still doesn't know why his father left himself alone in the toy store to go home alone, and whether the fire was really just an accident?

Many times Chen Dong asked himself, if Uncle Lin didn't show up that day, what would be his end?

Chen Dong, who first arrived in Z City, obviously didn't expect that the middle-aged uncle he trusted so much would become so terrifying and cold-blooded at some point.

In order to train Chen Dong to become a qualified black boxer, Uncle Lin did almost everything, he once locked Chen Dong up with a group of teenage thugs, let them bite each other like beasts, and only the one who won the last could have food.

Chen Dong remembered that in the end, he used a sharpened wooden strip to stab the gangster leader in the stomach, and watching the other party fall in a pool of blood, Uncle Lin finally took himself away from the house full of death.

After that, Chen Dong finally ushered in systematic and formal boxing training, which was boring and hard, but for Chen Dong, it was as wonderful as heaven.

At least there's no more blood and pain, isn't it?

Since then, Chen Dong finally saw the amiable Uncle Lin that day, but he didn't know what Lu Dao was for, and when he saw Uncle Lin again, Chen Dong found that this middle-aged man seemed to be white overnight and turned into an old man with a wrinkled face.

Chen Dong never asked what was going on, because he only knew that he was his boss and was very good to him, and that was enough.

Especially when Chen Dong won the first game in the ring, and Uncle Lin shouted happily outside the ring, the only mustard in Chen Dong's heart for Uncle Lin completely melted.

Chen Dong understands that it was Uncle Lin's experience of bringing him into the small black house that allowed him to survive in the ring today.

If you don't have a ruthless heart, how can you become the king of darkness?

Without the sacrifice of blood and pain, how can it be exchanged for a rebirth like a bath in fire?

Chen Dong has always known that among the many brothers in the boxing ring, Uncle Lin's favorite is himself, and it is no exaggeration to say that after Chen Dong is 14 years old, Uncle Lin is just like his father!

Chen Dong didn't know where Lu Dao's pampering came from, but he cherished Uncle Lin's love for him, just like the trust he had given to this old man five years ago.

It was Uncle Lin who raised him as an adult, it was Uncle Lin who taught him this skill, it was Uncle Lin who found the whereabouts of his biological parents for him, it was Uncle Lin who gave him the opportunity to go to the Red Star Special Training Camp, and it was Uncle Lin who created today's Chen Dong!

Chen Dong looked at the black and white photo of Uncle Lin in front of him with a somewhat detached look, and felt like he had been stabbed by thousands of needles in his heart.

It was you who gave me a new life, it was you who brought me to this point, but I haven't had time to repay this kindness, I haven't sold this life to you, how can you just die?

I haven't found you the prettiest girl in City Z yet, how can you just die?

I haven't broken the provincial record of 39 consecutive black boxing wins, how can you just die?

I haven't bought you the most expensive whiskey in the world of the next world, how can you just die?

I haven't carved out a piece of the world in C City to pick you up and enjoy your happiness, how can you just die like this?

I haven't gotten married and had children, I've not soared, I haven't made you proud, how can you just die?

How can you die? How can you be willing to die?

Chen Dong still remembers Uncle Lin's excited appearance when he won for the first time, Uncle Lin's teasing eyes when he first looked for a woman, and Uncle Lin's blaming eyes when he fought with someone for the first time.

When Chen Dong left the boxing ring that day, the pistol that Uncle Lin gave him was still in his arms, and when Chen Dong talked to Uncle Lin on the phone after the C University that day, Uncle Lin asked him the sentence "Is it strange to blame him" still echoed in his ears, but Uncle Lin was already dead.

Two lines of clear tears slowly slipped down Chen Dong's cheeks, Chen Dong buried his head between his arms, and finally no longer suppressed the sorrow in his heart, he suffered the pain like ten thousand arrows piercing his heart, and he couldn't cry.

"Boss, how can you just die like this!" (To be continued......)
