Chapter 263: A lake ahead
The military advisor and Brother Long were stunned when they heard this, and asked me, which old man.
Seeing that the two of them didn't react for a while, I reminded: "It's the old man who Brother Bin followed in the provincial capital." ”
Saying that, I said to the military division: "Military division, I also told you, and you also told me that it couldn't be him." ”
After hearing this, the two of them looked at each other, quite shocked, and Brother Long asked me, "How do you know it's the old man?" ”
I told him what I saw with Zhu Yeqing at night, and asked them if the old man lived in a dry rest house.
The military advisor and Brother Long both nodded, and suddenly fell silent.
After a while, the military advisor spoke: "Even if that person entered the dry rest house, it doesn't mean that the person behind Bin Zi is the old man." ”
As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Brother Long.
Brother Long nodded and didn't speak.
The military advisor frowned and said: "There are many old cadres who live in the cadre retreat, not necessarily the old man, and even if it is an old man, then what is his motive, he can be said to live a fairy-like life after retirement, there is no need to do this." ”
I asked, "What did Brother Bin Zi do with him before and help him?" ”
The military advisor and Brother Long glanced at each other, neither of them seemed to know much about it, the military advisor said that when the old man was in power, Binzi followed him for a period of time, helping the old man deal with some things that were inconvenient for him to deal with, but after the old man retired, he didn't know.
As he spoke, the military advisor suddenly looked up at Brother Long and said, "Brother Long, how long has it been since you saw the old man?" ”
Brother Long looked up and thought for a while, and said, "It's been a few years, and I usually call him during the holidays and ask someone to send him something." ”
The military advisor smiled and said, "Then why don't we go and visit the old man." ”
Brother Long's expression was slightly stunned, and the military advisor said to him: "I suddenly remembered one thing, was the old man's reaction too bland when Bin Zi died?" ”
Brother Long seemed to react when he was reminded like this, twisted his eyebrows and thought for a while, nodded and said: "Indeed, no matter what Binzi said, he also made great contributions to him, but after Binzi died, he ignored it, and he didn't have the slightest intention of pursuing it, and he seemed to try his best to get rid of Binzi." ”
The military advisor nodded and said, "So we went to visit his old man's house, if it was really him, then even if his fox tail was hidden deeply, it would show his feet." ”
Brother Long didn't speak, his calm face seemed to be thinking about something, and the military advisor asked him what was wrong.
Brother Long glanced up at the military advisor and me, and asked, "Have you ever thought about what if you are really an old man?" Even if he treats Xiaoyu as a pawn, and it is the Bin Zi he instructed to kill the ocean, what can we do with him, after all, his identity is there. ”
After Brother Long said this, the military advisor fell silent, lowered his head and thought about it, looked up at me, and asked me what I thought.
I touched the cigarette on the table, lit one, took two puffs unhurriedly, and said: "Brother Long, military advisor, I don't need to say much about my relationship with Brother Haiyang, you also understand, since I have said that I want to avenge him, then I must do what I say, the eldest husband is alive, naturally I must be true to my word, if I am afraid of the powerful, greedy for life and afraid of death, I will break my promise, then I will go underground in the future, will I still have the face to see Brother Haiyang?" ”
Brother Long sighed: "Xiaoyu, you should want to open it, now that Suo Life-Seven is dead, Binzi is also dead, and the people who were sorry for the ocean back then also made them pay the price one by one, which is equivalent to avenging the ocean, you don't have to make trouble to the point of not dying, the biggest difference between smart people and ordinary people is that their brains will turn, you can't swim, there is a lake in front of you, but you have to jump into it, this is not called righteousness, this is called stupidity." ”
I looked up and smiled at him, my smile was full of bitterness, and said, "Brother Long, when Brother Haiyang chose to go his own way, did you say that he knew that there was a lake in front of him?" ”
Brother Long was speechless for a while, swallowed his saliva, and didn't know what to say.
I still had a smile on my face when I looked at Brother Long, but unconsciously tears welled up with tears, and I continued at him: "Brother Long, why do you say that Brother Haiyang knows that there is a lake in front of him, and he still jumps?" You said that Sister Wanrong has been dead for so many years, why can't he let it go? ”
Brother Long's face was sad, his elbows were on his legs, and he lowered his head and did not speak.
All the things of the past surged in my mind in an instant, Brother Haiyang's high-spirited look, the situation when the gods came down to save me from fire and water, his clean and confident smile, every word of encouragement he said to me, and his lonely figure smoking a cigarette and bending over every time he thought of Sister Wanrong under the street lamp in the middle of the night.
Over the years, I have rarely dreamed of Brother Haiyang's miserable appearance when he died, but I always dreamed of his bright and warm smile in my dreams, dreaming that he was holding the hand of a girl whose face could not be seen clearly, smiling so happily, running unscrupulously, and when I reached out and shouted to him to chase him, I would wake up from the dream, followed by the boundless darkness around me.
Memories are like a flood beast, no matter how you try to escape, the moment the cage opens, it can swallow you in an instant.
After a few years, I found that my mentality had changed a lot, to be honest, after I learned the identity of the old man, and Zhu Yeqing reminded me of the possible results, I actually had the idea of retreating, and for the first time I knew the feeling of being afraid of death.
I remember how high-spirited and fierce Brother Yu was five or six years ago, he was never afraid of anyone, and he never compromised with reality, but now I am afraid of death, and I am ashamed of this thought.
At this moment, I thought of Brother Haiyang, remembered his face with perseverance and composure in the face of all difficulties and obstacles, remembered the situation when he protected me behind me with great righteousness, and suddenly regained his former blood.
The military advisor sighed softly on the side and said, "Xiaoyu, you are different from the ocean, the ocean has nothing to worry about in this world, unlike you, you still have a family, and you are about to marry Yaoyao, so I hope you can think about it yourself." ”
I nodded, wiped the tears from my face, and said, I know, even if I can't let him die for a life, I will make him pay the price to comfort Brother Hai's soul in the sky.
The military advisor said that no matter what, he and Brother Long would visit the old man first, at least to determine whether it was him or not, and then make plans.
Originally, the two of them wouldn't let me go, but after thinking about it, I insisted on going, wanting to see what this old man was like.
I didn't sleep that night, tossing and turning in bed and couldn't fall asleep because I had too many worries.
After I got up the next day, I first called Da Bai Leg and told her about Brother Haiyang, saying that I was now close to finding out who the mastermind behind the scenes was, and at the same time told her the particularity of this person's identity, so if I choose to avenge Brother Haiyang, it is likely to be in danger, ask her if she agrees with me to take revenge, if I don't agree, then I will give up, put everything here, quit and get married, and live a peaceful life in the future, if she agrees, Then she has to be prepared that I could die at any time.
I said it very seriously at the time, and the big white leg seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem, and was silent for a long time, then exhaled softly, pretending to smile lightly and said, "Xiaoyu, do you know what point of you can move me the most?" ”
I smiled and didn't speak.
She said to herself: "It's your righteousness towards your friends, you can still treat your friends like this, let alone treat your parents and lovers." ”
Saying that, there was some sadness in her tone, and she said softly: "I know your relationship with Brother Haiyang, and I also know his importance in your life, so I support you, if I don't let you go, even if you and I live a dull life, then you will not be happy, besides, if you choose to escape, then you will not be you." ”
Speaking of this, she paused, smiled, and said, "What I like will always be the Wang Yu who stands up to the sky and the earth and straightens his back even when he dies." ”
