"In my family, I'm not actually from S City."

The old demon lit a cigarette, and didn't care whether Yang Yongle next to him would be choked, so he took a big puff hard, and then slowly spit it out.

"When I was a child, I didn't get good grades, I was naughty all day long, I often fought with others, when I was in high school, a guy in the class who was also a gangster fought with me, he couldn't beat me, so he wanted to use a knife, but I was slashed in the hand, but his head hit me with a brick."

"That brick hit a little hard, and although that guy was rescued, he became a vegetative person, and because of the bad incident, I was fired."

"The family almost lost all their property for my business, but the gangster's family has some forces in the town, and they still don't give up on me, and in the end I can't stay in the town anymore, so my father decided to move the whole family to S City."

"The difference between a small town and a city is very big, my father originally thought that with the skills he trained in the factory, he could find a better job, but in fact, in the first six months of coming to S City, if there was no such thing as a shelter, our whole family would have starved to death, and the unemployment rate in the city was much more serious than we thought."

"Later, my mother saved a little money by helping other families wash clothes and work as a nanny, and let my father set up a small stall, so that we had a cheap, low and dark place to live, and I dropped out of school from that time."

"I knew it was all because of me, and if it weren't for me, my parents wouldn't be in this situation, but they never complained to me, they just sighed when I decided to go out and look for a job."

"Hehe, you may not know, a boy who hasn't even graduated from high school, how difficult it is to find a job, S City is a seaside city, I can only find a job as a porter on the dock in the end, it's funny to say, I was still a little grateful at the time, the dock is not all mechanized!"

"At that time, I met my brother, my buddy, his name is Fang Yong, he is a year older than me, he is in a similar situation to me, and he is also struggling to survive after the family moved here. But unlike me, he didn't hurt anyone......"

"He and I quickly became good friends, and every day we carried the goods that had to be transported manually at the docks, and then when we were free, we sat on the shore of the docks and looked at the sea, sighing at the life of this dog."

"One day, he suddenly said to me, old man, why don't we go to work abroad, I asked him why, he couldn't say, only said that maybe the money of foreign devils should be a little better, and when the time comes, just find a job, and the remuneration will always be more than now, and when the time comes, send the money back, so that parents can live a little more comfortably."

"After working at the dock for a long time, we also got to know some people on the road, among them there was a fat man who had been in the business of helping people to smuggle people, and after we found him, he patted his chest and promised us that he would help us find a good job in the United States when the time came, and then took away the 4,000 yuan we had saved so hard."

"After we left a message for the family and quietly followed the fat man on the boat, we found that what the dog said was completely different from what we expected."

"When we think about it, we feel so naïve at that time, we really believed him! After the smuggling boat left the high seas, another boat came to hand us over, and we were sold to human traffickers by the fat man. ”

"The traffickers took us to several countries and finally sold us to a group of mercenaries, who told us that if we wanted to go back, we could! As long as you can survive the next three years! ”

"The mercenary group has always suffered heavy casualties, and they have increased their membership in this way, but in order to ensure the most basic unity, they promised to let us go home in three years, and then they threw us into a Siberian training camp."

"The Siberian training camp is not a mercenary group, but a professional training camp, and some relatively large mercenary groups are entrusted there to help them train mercenaries, and our gang is one of them. It was a damn place, and the temperature was in the minus 20 degrees all year round, and when we set foot on that place, five people froze to death. ”

"Later, only me and Ah Yong survived, and the others either died in the cold weather or died in training!"

"In retrospect, perhaps we survived because our beliefs were stronger than others. We always remembered the mercenary group's original promise to let us go back as long as we could work for three years...... We want to go back, to go back to see our parents, to make them have a good life, so we can't die! ”

The old demon threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped on it hard, and then put on his sunglasses. Yang Yongle had been watching him quietly, and did not show the slightest expression to his action, because she knew that the old demon did this because she didn't want to let herself see something......

"Three months have passed quickly." The old demon continued: "Ah Yong and I walked out of the training camp and joined the mercenary group, when we saw the two eastern faces joining, the leader of the mercenary group didn't say anything, and directly brought us into the battlefield, that year, I was twenty years old, and he was only twenty-one years old. ”

"It was a time when people would wake up from nightmares in their dreams, and we followed the footsteps of the mercenary group to many countries, all of which were countries where war broke out! Although it was only a small war, the poor communication conditions made it impossible for us to contact our families. ”

"But fortunately, after officially joining the mercenary group, Ah Yong and I were treated a lot better, because everyone knows that since we have become comrades-in-arms, it is best to let go of some unpleasant things, if we can't even hand over our backs to our comrades, then we will die faster on the battlefield, and the people in the mercenary group don't want to die, and we don't want to die......"

"In the mercenary group, Ah Yong and I are completely different, those foreign devils, in order to withstand the pressure of the battlefield, when there is no task, they indulge themselves desperately, drink spirits, gamble, play with women, or drugs, etc., mercenaries are paid very highly, and they are used to this kind of profligacy, so after seeing that Ah Yong and I are not involved in these things, they all laughed and said that we are fools, saying that if we die on the battlefield one day, we will definitely regret not enjoying it."

"We all laughed at such words, and then continued to go our own way, we saved up the remuneration we received, thinking that one day when we could go back, we would rely on this money to support our parents in their old age, and the rest of the time, we were crazy about exercising ourselves, wanting to keep ourselves alive."

"Actually, we don't know why we do this, I think, maybe this is the difference in concept, we are just ordinary Chinese people, although we have to fall into this step, but the idea of filial piety for our parents has never changed, it was so before, and it is still the case now. As long as this idea still exists, I will feel that I have always been a Chinese! ”

The old demon took out a cigarette again and lit it, and at his feet, there were already cigarette butts, but Yang Yongle and him, who were silent in stories and memories, were all unaware of it.

"Later, Ah Yong and we also found it difficult to go home, and if it weren't for that accident, I guess I'd still be on the battlefield right now."

"That time, the mercenary group received a task to help the U.S. military clear out the guerrillas stationed in a certain country's military base, you should also know, those Yankees have always been like this, greedy for life and afraid of death, they spend a lot of money, hire mercenaries to do something that is likely to cause casualties, and they hide in the rear to pick up the results, and then openly promote their zero casualty strategy...... We've had a lot of similar assignments before, so I didn't think much of it this time. ”

"Ah Yong and I are very flexible, so we have always played the role of scouts, that time, it was my turn to explore the path, but I don't know why, Ah Yong is desperate to shake the guard with me......"

"It was on that occasion that Ah Yong stepped on thunder...... It's an adsorption mine! The guerrillas are very cunning, they first let the animals pull down the dung on the side of the road, and then they bury the mines under the dung, so that if they camouflage, they will give people the impression that it is safe for livestock to pass through here......"

The old demon's fists were clenched tightly, and his whole body was trembling: "What if...... If Yong hadn't changed the guard with me, I would have been the one who died...... Stupid Ah Yong, he must have some bad premonition, this is ...... That's ......"

Yang Yongle put his hand on the old demon's fist with pity, she could feel the mood of the man in front of her at that time, maybe she wanted to give this man a little courage or something, she couldn't say it anyway.

After a long time, the old demon's trembling stopped, under the cover of sunglasses, no one could see his eyes, he continued: "That time, half of Ah Yong's body was blown up, and when he was breathing, he looked at the leader of our mercenary group, and pleaded with him with his eyes, and the head understood what he meant, and immediately announced that my mercenary years had expired, and I could fulfill my original promise...... And Ah Yong looked at me with a relieved smile and let me know what he meant. ”

"After returning to China, I bought the current villa in S City, a total of 36 million, equivalent to 12 million US dollars, this is all the savings we have accumulated in more than three years, I ran to find his parents and my parents, intending to take them to live together and enjoy happiness, I thought to myself, I will replace Ah Yong, and treat his parents as my own parents."

However, at this time, I found out that my parents, as well as his parents, had passed away one after another because of grief and sadness not long after the two of us left a message...... I, we, have committed the unpardonable sin! ”

"I don't even have the opportunity for him to let them see me marrying a wife and having children, starting a family......"

Yang Yongle found that the back of her hand on the old demon's fist was wet with two drops of liquid, she never thought that a man's experience would be like this, and she never thought that what was usually hidden under the old demon's hippie smile would be such a painful feeling! If I hadn't come to my grandfather's grave today, I guess I would never have known about the old demon's suffering, right?

"Thank you, I'm much better!" The old demon turned around and smiled at Yang Yongle: "All along, I have never had a chance to talk to anyone about these words, but now it is much better." ”

Yang Yongle looked at him and didn't speak, just smiled quietly.

"Oops, I accidentally delayed for so long!" The old demon looked at the sky, couldn't help but patted his head and said, "Let's go back, it's going to be dark next day." ”

……

The location of the cemetery is naturally in the suburbs, and by the time the two returned to the villa complex, it was already dark.

The old demon has recovered his previous mood, and walked side by side with Yang Yongle talking and laughing, this was Yang Yongle's own proposal to take a walk, even she herself couldn't say why she didn't want to go back so quickly, and our old demon comrade just complied with her request.

"You know what?" The old demon smiled and said to Yang Yongle: "When I bought this villa, I kept thinking that now that I have money, I can find a wife well, and I must be very filial, and accompany me to support my parents in the old age, but such an idea has not been realized to this day!" ”

"How...... Why did you mention this suddenly...... Yang Yongle's face turned red all of a sudden, and he muttered in a low voice, and his two hands were uneasy to pick up the corners of his clothes.

"Haha, actually, I also know that my idea seems to be a bit selfish, and I haven't considered other people's feelings!" The old demon shrugged and said, "I think this may be the reason why I haven't found the legendary charter woman all along." ”

"Nope!" Yang Yongle whispered: "Honoring your parents is what you should be, it's not selfish or not, if it's really just a fancy to your house and ...... with you You have to pay attention to the woman who is good with you. ”

"Is that so?" The old demon scratched his head, and said this without words, and he also found that the atmosphere between the two was a little wrong.

"Actually...... In fact...... I think you're a ......" Yang Yongle plucked up his courage, raised his head to look at the old demon's tall back in the night, and was about to continue, but a voice suddenly interrupted her.

"Yo! Are the little couple still flirting? Looks like we're not here at the right time! ”

As the words fell, three young men with dyed hair and strange clothes who looked like gangsters appeared in front of the two of them, blocking their path.

Not only that, but three other people appeared behind the two, blocking the back road, and completely entrapping the posture.

"Friend, it's so late, and you still take a beautiful woman to the street? Didn't your mother tell you that the law and order has been bad lately? The young man in front of him whistled towards Yang Yongle and said to the old demon with a hippie smile.

"You ...... What are you going to do? Yang Yongle was a little scared and hid behind the old demon.

The old demon, on the other hand, took out a cigarette and lit one, and said unhurriedly: "So, you are the culprit who caused the poor public order?" ”

"Less fucking bullshit!" Hearing the tone of the old demon, the young man was unhappy for no reason, and scolded: "What are you pretending to be!" You're alone, and you deserve to pretend to be with us? Hurry up, hand over your wallet, necklace, ring, and valuable things! Lao Tzu has taken a fancy to a set of equipment among the gods, and he is worried that he has no money to buy it! ”

"Really?" The old demon smiled: "Who told you that I am alone?" ”

"Isn't it?" The young man said viciously, "Or do you forget about that woman?" In that case, aren't you afraid of something unfortunate that will happen to your girlfriend? ”

"Who...... Who is his girlfriend? Yang Yongle, who was hiding behind the old demon, blushed for no reason, and muttered in a low voice again, completely forgetting the current situation.

"Really, what the hell are these property management guys doing? Actually let people get in and rob it? At this time, the old demon didn't bother to talk nonsense with these guys, and after talking to himself, he turned his head and yelled loudly behind him: "Damn, I'm in a bad mood today, if you want to come out, you'd better hurry!" Otherwise, I'm not responsible for what happens! ”

"Huh? This guy is stupid, right? The roar of the old demon made the six guys who blocked the road and robbed pause, thinking that he was scared and nervous.

However, with the roar of the old demon, a person really came out of the night.

"You kid...... Treat us like bodyguards or what? The people who came didn't look at the gangsters, and walked straight to the old demon.

"I'm finally willing to come out!" The old demon smiled and said to the visitor: "Aren't I cooperating with your work?" ”

The person who came was a middle-aged man, wearing the same black suit as the old demon, and after hearing the old demon's words, he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Really, I found that you kid has to cause a lot of trouble every time he goes out!" Every time he comes to us to wipe his ass. ”

"I don't want to!" The old demon shrugged and said, "So you see, I'm staying at home now and playing games as an otaku." ”

The two of them stood on their own feet and talked, completely ignoring the roadblock robbery six, which made the young people very angry, and the young man at the head roared even more angrily: "Damn, are you us air? What about another one? Brothers, bright knives! ”

Brush! The six young men all took out their dicks, daggers, machetes, and iron rods, and surrounded the old demon and the three of them.

After having a guy, the young man led by him also became confident, and said with a smile: "Do you see it, how about growing taller!" You guys, I've seen a lot! Hurry up and hand over the money, or we'll all of you be wasted later!" Ha ha! ”

A group of robbers also laughed.

However, the next second later, all their voices stopped abruptly.

A gun glowing with black metal appeared in the hand of the middle-aged man in black, and then directly hit the head of the young man who was the leader......
