The sun was so bright in the west that it approached the arc of the hill and began to merge with the horizon.

The person who looks at it is a little dizzy, but he can't take his eyes off, as if he is carrying a magnet, attracting people to look fascinated.

"Brother Jiu, it's over."

Ah Biao came out of the warehouse with his brothers, the blood stained his newly bought suit, he spent a lot of money, ready to wear it to celebrate the anniversary with his daughter-in-law, before he was halfway there, he asked me to stop him and pull him here directly to grab the goods, this guy is also reckless, without saying a word, he will do it with the other side, he is not a delicate person, and naturally he will not care about those glamorous details.

He rubbed his hands together on the still warm blood, and took the cigarette from my hand that had been prepared for a long time.

“…… Hiss...... Whew......", Ah Biao leaned on the hood of the car, smiled and flicked off the cigarette ash, and spat out the smoke ring, which was already very skillful.

"Brother Jiu, what's the matter? Brother, I've practiced hard, is it round or not? ”

He asked me with a smile, but his eyes also turned to the sunset, admiring the beauty of the rest of the scenery, which is a common hobby of people, and he was no exception.

The stolen goods were loaded into the car, and we returned to the car, leaving the dead bodies in the warehouse, indifferent, as if they had nothing to do with us.

"Ah Biao, ......", I called him softly, he just turned his face, he was young, wrinkles had already climbed to the corners of his eyes, and he looked older than me, an old man who was almost forty: "What's wrong Brother Jiu?" Dropped something? ”

I shook my head, took out a letter from my pocket, opened it and showed him, although he was not very old, but he was definitely righteous enough, so I liked to talk to him about anything.

He looked at the boss with staring eyes, and his expression was exactly the same as when he saw the little girls in the street.

"Wow! Brother Jiu, you are ......"

I put my index finger to my mouth, signaled him to keep a low profile, and then patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "Then in the last few days, the group will leave it to you to take care of it, if there is anything on the eldest brother's side, you call me, I will be back in three days at most." ”

"Cheng, what's the matter? Leave it to me! His confident appearance always made me feel uneasy, and sure enough, he turned a villain's wicked smile, and even lowered his voice a lot: "Then Brother Jiu......, can you add a little more to this month's reward, my daughter-in-law is about to celebrate her birthday, and I'm going to buy her a gold chain, you see ......"

This kid is not small, but he is too accustomed to his daughter-in-law, and everyone in the group understands it, but he has performed really well recently, and the reward he deserves is still to be given.

"Go back, change your clothes, bury this look, and scare your daughter-in-law again...... reward me for a month's advance, work hard, and you won't be short of this money in the future."

"Hehe, thank you, Brother Jiu!"

I promised to go back in three days, but I broke my promise, and on the fifth day, when I returned to the group with a black burden, I was exhausted.

I killed all the monks in that small temple, and also killed a few stalking garbage, I don't know how I suppressed the killing intent in the blade, and I don't know how I ran out of that place overnight, so that today, I still don't want to think about it, after a long time, I actually began to forget, I only remember that day there was only blood red in front of me, and the last blade of black evil qi.

Fortunately, the last few days had not been a major incident, and I declined my brother's greetings and returned to my own residence.

"Rub!"

The sword was unsheathed, and the chill instantly enveloped my whole body, and I felt that my fingers began to be a little cold, and I waved it out of thin air, and my arms began to disobey my orders, so that I always had a desire to slash and kill, a desire to kill everything.

After all, I was afraid, I put the knife back into the scabbard, hid it under the kang cave, and lived for half a lifetime, I have seen fame, fortune and wealth, but I like a sword, gun, sword and halberd, every time I like something in my hand, it is just a transaction of money, but this knife almost killed me.

But that doesn't dampen my interest, it only makes me cherish this hard-earned treasure even more.

It's just that after that day, I kept my hobby of collecting for more than ten years, and suddenly quit.

After three years, when the group's career was booming, Ah Biao divorced.

His daughter-in-law fell in love with a group of people, who had money in the family, and lived a much richer life than Ah Biao, and since his daughter-in-law got married, it was like living the life of a dream, and the thin gold chain was replaced by a pendant with precious stones, and she was wearing gold and silver mink, as if she had adapted to the life of a noble lady.

I found Ah Biao in a bar, he was already drunk and crazy, and the noisy movement provoked a gang of thugs, punched and kicked, and he was always brave, but he was actually pressed to the ground and beaten, spitting, crying, howling, like a lost dog.

I can't see others bullying my brother, but that day I just pulled everyone away and helped him back to his residence with his scars, and I didn't take revenge on those gangsters, because I thought the violent beating that day was a good thing, it could give Ah Biao a good time, he had been suppressed for too long and needed to vent.

It's okay to get beaten.

He didn't want to lie on the couch, rolling on the ground, crying constantly, and reading his daughter-in-law's nickname, no one could connect the dead dog-like man in front of him with the unstoppable Ah Biao in the fight.

I ignored him and just let him go crazy, but I sat in the living room and watched TV all night for fear that he would find a shortcoming.

Behind him, the crying tired Ah Biao fell asleep deeply, and he also carried a letter of celebration from the eldest brother in his arms yesterday, Ah Biao and the brothers in another group were called double knives together, that person is called the wolf knife, and Ah Biao is the ghost knife.

Huafa covered up the green silk, and the old man pushed me step by step into the arms of death, I am old, from the "ninth brother" in the group to the "ninth master", the only thing that remains unchanged is the "Jiuzhongtang" that I run single-handedly.

The ghost knife is also old, the descendant who was once pulled into the group by me, has also become an uncle of vicissitudes, a man will not be defeated by fate after all, his daughter-in-law and new husband committed something, the eldest brother gave a death order, it was Ah Biao who took someone to do it, that evening, I drank too much in the bar again, but this time I didn't go crazy, but fell asleep on the bar counter, when I took him home, he sat on the ground and laughed, crying and laughing, chatting indifferently, while crying.

I'd rather him vent like a dead dog, at least then I know how to deal with it, but now I don't know what to say to persuade him.

"Ninth Brother ......"

He stopped his chatter and leaned against the wall, a little frustrated.

"Say." I answered him slowly, a cigarette lingering in my hand.

"I'll concentrate on working for the group in the future, and I don't know when I'll be out of ......, but I can't bear my son." Before he finished speaking, he just raised his head and looked at me, his high-spirited eyes were already cloudy, with pleading.

I extinguished the cigarette and pulled him out of my house, the smell ......was so strong that I smelled nauseous.

"Go home, wash and sleep, wake up, send the child over, and if you want to die, you will die far away."

The friendship of a man will not be suppressed in those gentle words, and my scolding will sound to him more than giving him an extra month's money.

Ah Biao is a real man, he knows that everything he does is a bad account in the book of life and death, and the only thing he is worried about is that he will affect his only son, and he originally left the child with his own mother.

As a result, ......, the only way back, was finally cut off in his own hands.

He didn't even give his son a name, and when he brought it, he was only a child less than six years old, but in that young but indifferent eyes, he had lost the innocence that a child should have.

"Just call him, Ghost, I want to have a surname with you, your name is Ghost Knife, your surname is Ghost, the child is called that, there's nothing wrong with it."

The child gave me, more reassuring than anyone else, I have been with the eldest brother for half my life, qualifications, ability, status, are already under one person, originally after the death of my wife, I should not have any hope, Ah Biao, this bastard, but I have been forced to shoehorn a responsibility.

After being lonely for half my life, I suddenly had a child, and I actually felt that I was living a vigorous life.

I remember that afternoon, I went out to socialize with the gang I worked with, and I was a big smoker, but the amount of alcohol was a little worse, so that when I returned to my accommodation, I was helped back.

I closed the door and leaned against the door, sighing, I was so old, I couldn't bear it.

In the drunken haze, the furniture, the furnishings, and the wallpaper are all fluttering, just like entering the fairy palace in the novel, with ethereal.

The ghost came out of the bedroom and looked at me.

At that moment, my wine instantly sobered.

I hid the treasure behind the Buddha shrine, and I was held in his arms by him, like holding a cat.

"Little Shadow! Put it down!! ”

I've never scolded him like that, but that day, I was genuinely angry.

I'm not angry at him for messing with my things, but at his stupidity, young and ignorant, who doesn't know what the preciousness of life is, and only we, the men with our heads on the tip of the knife, understand that life is more important than anything else.

The shadow word is not a knife, it is a devil, a demon with infinite anger.

It's strange to say, I don't like to be angry, but I was angry that day; The ghost who has always been obedient, but he was extremely stubborn that day, he just refused to let go, holding the shadow and deciding to be closer than me.

The knife slipped out of its scabbard during the argument, and all I remember was that at that moment, my heart was about to stop.

The ghost picked up the handle of the knife, and it was a little difficult to hold it in his hand, he couldn't lift the heavy blade, but only dragged up half of the hilt, and smiled so happily.

The first time I saw this child laugh, I always thought that this child was born not to laugh.

The shadow word that should have been murderous was meek at that moment, and I was so stunned that I watched the ghost running back and forth in the living room with the knife in tow, just as happy as the children who ran and flew kites.

I don't have time to care about how many good floors he has broken, and I am not in the mood to count how many expensive vases he has broken.

I just sat cross-legged on the ground that day, looking at his innocent little face full of happy smiles, full of energy, and I laughed along, I don't know why, I just wanted to laugh, I was happy.

"Do you like this knife?" I asked him, and he looked up at me with a resolute little face, nodding excitedly.

"If you want this knife, you have to practice kung fu with the ninth master, when you defeat the ninth master, this knife will be given to you."

"Uh-huh, pull goo! Liars are puppies! ”

……

Time comes and goes, the years have withered, and our era has finally come to an end.

Ah Biao is also old, and the title of the ghost knife has been inherited to the new rising star, the ghost hair, and the ghost shadow that has grown up, and the new ghost knife is called the "three ghosts", they have the vigor that we didn't have back then, and they are the future of the organization.

Ah Biao, the old ghost knife, is still doing his old job, the new strong son has become a celebrity on the side of the eldest brother, but he is still just a neat executioner, the eldest brother is scheming, he ordered to kill A Biao's daughter-in-law, he is just worried that A Biao will hold a grudge, and only I understand that A Biao does not hold a grudge, but more gratitude.

I am grateful to my eldest brother for giving him a rebirth.

Carefully calculated, it has been more than a year since the new ghost knife went to City A, and the young man is very deep in the city, although his hands and feet are not as good as the ghost shadow, but he has a lot of eyes in his heart, and the eldest brother sent him there because he valued his advantages.

What's more, the current identity of the "three ghosts" is very confusing, and many people think that the ghost knife refers to Ah Biao, an old man who has been with the organization for half his life, but they don't know that the real ghost knife has another person.

The future is terrifying, and it is not only the people under my hands, the child raised by the eldest brother has slowly begun to participate in the things in the group, I am not a god, I can't see through people's hearts, but I understand that this child is by no means good.

"Ye Han Falls ......"

I whispered the name, along with the Chinese cigarettes I loved for half my life, the smell of smoke slowly dissipated in the air, but the clouds of sorrow in my heart gathered more and more.

"Ninth Master, the people in City A have been contacted, and they found out that it was done by a person named Nan Yuheng, and the goods are ...... Eighty percent has also been transferred out. ”

The ghost walked in from outside the door and reported, the original child, somehow, suddenly grew up, tall and taller than me, and handsome, and the shadow word knife in his hand had become one with him, and had become the most terrible killing weapon of the organization.

I poked out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, put on my old coat, stood up and walked out.

"Then go to City A."

Terminal lung cancer, what a frightening word, ridiculous to say, I'm already this age, and God only remembered to add retribution to me.

Of course, only Ah Biao and I know about this matter, and I can still talk to him and others.

I know that I am not far away, and twenty years ago I thought it was okay to die whenever I wanted, it didn't matter; But now, I want to live a few more days.

I've been worried about it for half my life, and I can't change it, and in the end, I also want to do a good thing for this old thing.

Keep the ghost.

Ah Biao's fate is definitely not good, but the ghost, my old nine must be protected.

The car was driving in the night, I was a little sleepy, and I dreamed of the past, the sunset of that day seemed to shine on my face again, and when I turned my head, the old car that had been scrapped for a long time was parked brand new, and Ah Biao was leaning on the hood, smoking a cigarette, spitting smoke rings, and the blood stains on his body had not yet dried.

Everything that I didn't care about at that time has now become what I dreamed of, and I want to go back to that time and enjoy my youth again.

The stars outside the window are much dimmer than those years, will there be one that belongs to me as an old thing,...... Will they be annihilated on the day I die?

Hehe......

Lao Jiu, Lao Jiu, the more you live, the more useless you become.

……

Alas............

Just quietly turn to dust......
