"Old man, do you know a person surnamed Qiu?" Chen Jie and the old man were playing Contra, and suddenly asked at the end of the game.

This is the second day after Chen Jie returns home.

After chatting with Li Xing, although Chen Jie already knew that he was betrayed because of the grievances of the previous generation, because Li Xing said vaguely, Chen Jie did not understand the specific Tao in it. After saying goodbye to Brother Xiong, I took the car home overnight.

Although the old man and Aunt Zhuo were surprised by Chen Jie's sudden return, the two adults were still very happy when their children came back, and they asked for a while before letting Chen Jie go to rest.

Chen Jie, who thought he would be able to relax when he got home, was pulled up by the old man early this morning, and asked Chen Jie to accompany him to play games, and after basically playing all the games in Chen Jie's computer in the morning, the old man took out the card insertion machine that he had treasured for many years and played the card insertion Contra.

Although he was surprised by the old man's treasure, Chen Jie still mentioned his interest in accompanying the old man, and the emotional exchanges between the two big men were all in the game.

What Li Xing said to Chen Jie had been circling in Chen Jie's mind, although on the way home, Chen Jie had already made up his mind not to mention this matter to the two old men, but after thinking too much, he couldn't help but say it.

"Feud?" The old man's hand trembled obviously, and he raised his head to look at Chen Jie, "Have you met someone surnamed Qiu?" ”

"Nope." Chen Jie shook his head, "I met his apprentice. ”

Seeing the old man's reaction, Chen Jie knew that the old man did know a person surnamed Qiu, and a lot of things happened between the two of them, and the old man had also won the national championship of a game before, it seemed that what Li Xing said should have happened at that time.

"Where is he?" The old man asked.

"He's the one who framed me." Chen Jie looked into the old man's eyes, trying to see something.

"The one who framed you? Why? The old man's eyes were full of surprise, and he didn't look like he was in disguise.

"He said you snatched the championship that belonged to his master." Chen Jie told the old man what Li Xing said, and the old man listened quietly without interjecting, and only after Chen Jie finished speaking did he laugh dumbly, and then let out a long sigh.

Chen Jie looked at the old man quietly, waiting for the following.

The old man glanced at Chen Jie with slanted eyes, and asked with a smile, "Want to know what happened between us?" ”

Chen Jie nodded.

"Then I'll tell you about it." The old man put down the handle in his hand, got up and sat down on the sofa, lit a cigarette and took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled it before he began to follow.

Chen Jie was sitting precariously, pricking up his ears, he knew that whenever the old man talked about something more important, he would definitely take a good puff of cigarette like now, as if this cigarette could open the door to his memory.

"I told you before that the conditions were very difficult when I played professionally, and it was said that I was playing professionally, but in fact, we were the same as civilian players at that time, except that we had a little more talent, a little more persistence and a little faith than them."

The smoke was filled, and the old man took another deep puff of smoke, but Chen Jie just listened quietly.

"That year was actually our second national competition, and the first time we went, we met the guy with the surname of Hat. At that time we didn't know each other, and because we didn't have enough to eat for a long time, the whole team was not in good shape, but at that time we were short of money. ”

"Brother Feng's mother is sick and needs the champion's prize money to save her life, and we have no choice but to bite the bullet. But just when I was about to meet the man surnamed Qiu in the next game, the father of the person surnamed Qiu came to me and promised me that as long as I let water in the game for his son to advance, he would give me the amount equivalent to the championship. His father was one of the richest people at the time, and that money was not money in his eyes. ”

"I let the water go." The old man sighed, "I believed him, but we didn't get the money, and Brother Feng's mother died." And my girlfriend at that time was also engaged to the surname Qiu. ”

"Later, because of these things, everyone dispersed, and I went to continue going to school until I met your Aunt Zhuo." The old man's face was full of smiles, and it seemed that he had thought of something beautiful.

"With the persuasion and help of your Aunt Zhuo, maybe we are all really full of love and affection for the game, and we have come together again and returned to the arena."

"Although the situation of the second visit is much better than the first time, we still don't have enough money, so we can only work as a casual worker to earn money to subsidize it, although everyone is hard but happy."

"The father surnamed Qiu is a good father, but he is definitely not a good person. So many enemies came to the door at that time, and they also encountered an economic crisis at that time. ”

"My ex-girlfriend's father made a bet with his father, surnamed Qiu, that if he could beat us in the final, he would inject money to save his father's company. At that time, we didn't know that we had become a tool for other people's gambling, in fact, we didn't mind, because at that time we had only one goal in our eyes, and that was to win the championship to take revenge. ”

"Actually, a lot of things happened during this time, I became confidants with the surname Qiu, and he also broke up with my ex-girlfriend. During that time, we were all destitute people. ”

"Because of the existence of the bet, his father found us again, but not for me, but for your Uncle Jin and your Aunt Jin, but your Uncle Jin and Aunt Jin would rather die than give in, although they were rescued by us later, they were also injured a lot, and it was the one who rescued them who was surnamed Qiu."

"Can you imagine? The surname Qiu turned against his father for an outsider, and at that time I realized that he was also a person like me. ”

"Maybe it was providence that made us enemies, and even though our opponents were strong, we all stumbled into the final. Our grievances should end in the game because the game began, so we all had no reservations and used all our efforts and strength to defeat each other. In the end, we narrowly won the championship. ”

"We

won the championship, the father surnamed Qiu naturally couldn't get the funds to turn over the company, so their company went bankrupt, and the father surnamed Qiu was also investigated for doing many black things, his parents committed suicide in fear of crime, and the surname Qiu was also a broken family at that time. ”

The old man spoke very simply, and after finishing speaking, he sighed heavily, and his eyes revealed the exhaustion of seeing the warmth and coldness of the world.

"Where did the surnamed Qiu go at the end?" Chen Jie asked.

"I don't know." The old man shook his head, "I haven't seen him since I worshipped his parents. But you say that his apprentice is tired of eating seafood, and I guess he must have lived in seclusion on some unknown seaside. Although he is a noble son and a rich second generation, he is a good hand at driving boats and sailing and fishing. ”

"I see." Chen Jie also sighed heavily, he didn't expect things to be like this.

"Do you think the surname Qiu hates you?" Chen Jie asked again.

"Why do you ask?" The old man looked at Chen Jie, "Is it because of his apprentice's revenge on you?" ”

Chen Jie nodded.

The old man smiled: "He won't hate me, because we are very similar, I know that he is not that kind of person, and, speaking of which, he is still your Aunt Zhuo's own brother." ”

"Huh?" Chen Jie was surprised and looked at the old man blankly, "What's going on?" Aunt Zhuo's surname is Zhuo, and his surname is Qiu, how can it be? ”

"That's another story, it has nothing to do with you, so don't ask." The old man stood up, "I can probably guess why that kid is your enemy." Although we are not the main characters who caused the family to break down and die with the surname Feud, we are also the main reason. I sometimes wonder if if we hadn't won the championship at that time, and even if we hadn't won the championship at that time, our life would not have been worse than it is now, and he would not have been displaced. ”

"It can only be said that too much has happened, and hatred has blinded the eyes and hearts of all of us, so Xiaojie." The old man looked at Chen Jie, "No matter what that kid has done to you, just pass it if you can, what can compare to being happy and happy?" I think that child must have been unhappy all these years. If that kid really breaks your heart, I also hope that you can see my face and pay off the debt we caused the destruction of the family surnamed Qiu. ”
