At ten o'clock in the evening, the spirit realm was still running at night like a walking puppet, and he crossed the ridges, crossed the rivers, and crossed the wetlands towards the center of the city of Jialin.

It's been an hour, Zhang Yi and the others don't know how many heels they have fallen, but there is no way, no matter how much the current spiritual domain talks to him and greets him, he is just running quickly, and the route he walks deliberately avoids the wide road, takes the remote muddy path and even the hot gas pipe that bends on the river.

Maybe it's because he's afraid that others will scare others when they see it, after all, he looks like a zombie in the night when he walks without bending his legs, Zhang Yi thinks so, but the two old men are already tired and unconscious, and the breath coming out of his mouth is like pulling a bellows.

Just as the two old men were about to collapse and die, the spirit realm stopped in an abandoned park next to the hospital.

The park is located in the old town of Jialin City, which is a product of the 80s of the last century, and then for some unknown reason it was abandoned and some iron warehouses were built, and then a new site of a private international hospital in Jialin City was built here, and these warehouses were abandoned in the back.

It may be that the second phase of the hospital project has been delayed for some reasons, so this part of the warehouse has become a ruin as if it has been forgotten by the times.

The ruins were close to a sewage-ridden river, and were overgrown with reeds more than a man high, and some rusty and collapsed tin houses could still be seen looming among the reeds.

With a "buzz", a black shadow cluster of spiritual domains bounced out like a cannonball and landed in the reeds, but the reeds did not overturn in large numbers, but just swayed to the side.

The black shadow struggled to stand up from the ground, it was Liu Bing, he looked at the spiritual realm in front of him blankly, and then looked at the reeds how tall this person was, and in an instant he seemed to think of something and screamed and was about to run away.

But before he could run out of sight, he bounced off and fell to the ground as if he had hit a wall, and he suddenly became hysterical, the innocent smile on his face was nowhere to be found, and was replaced by a dark green face, and the dark red tongue leaked out of his mouth unconsciously, although he tried his best to control the scene, no matter how hard he tried, it was to no avail.

Liu Bing looked at the rope around his neck that could never be pulled off, and he finally understood the truth, but at the same time, his spirit also had an unprecedented collapse, he stretched out his hands, and leaked out the long nails that glowed with cold light, and these nails were like a sharp scythe sweeping towards the face of the spirit domain.

But the long nail with Gangfeng stopped in mid-air, because in front of him stood his second grandfather, Liu Fu.

"Xiaobing, I'm your second grandfather, I'm your second grandfather!" The old man's eyes welled up with tears, and his body trembled like chaff.

"Second grandfather, second grandfather" Liu Bing kept repeating this sentence in his mouth, he looked at the familiar face in front of him, and finally remembered this person in his mind.

It was this person who lifted him high on his neck to look at the lanterns during the Lantern Festival, it was this person who carried him on a stormy night and ran more than ten miles of mountain roads to see a doctor in the town hospital, and it was this person who stood up at the first time to beat those children who bullied him.

Liu Bing's grandfather died early, and his parents were honest people with slight IQ impairments, so in his formative years, his second grandfather Liu Fu was his mentor and friend, and he was a stepping stone in his life.

The wind was blowing, and the wind blew through the reeds and made a rattling sound, like pieces of white spirit flags swaying in the quiet night.

In the deepest part of the reeds, in a ditch washed by water, Liu Bing's body hung quietly.

A newly grown willow stretched a branch into this very hidden trench, and a thumb-thick hemp rope was tied to the treetops at one end, and a dead knot at the other end was firmly tied around the neck of Liu Bing's body, which had begun to decompose.

The branches were not very thick, bent downward under pressure and less than two meters above the ground, Liu Bing drooped his head, his angry eyes seemed to be able to see the despair at that time.

He folded his rotten hands on his chest, his feet curled up in the air and still swaying.

Liu Fu didn't care about the smell of the corpse, he rushed up to take the corpse down and hugged it in his arms and cried bitterly, an old man who was almost old suddenly lost the motivation and purpose of living, even if he lived a long life, it was meaningless.

Man is not a walking corpse, and he needs a reason to live.

Liu Bing's soul knelt in front of the old man, he had changed back to the image of the honest peasant child, he also couldn't cry, and kept apologizing to the old man.

Lao Dao turned around in the ditch and said softly: "Child, your feet are not far from the ground, and there are places to land on the left and right, I see you with your hands folded and must be praying not to die, but why did you finally give up surviving, what is it that makes you, a promising young man, embark on such a road of no return." ”

Liu Bing raised his tearful eyes and glanced at Lao Dao and said softly: "Grandpa, Xiao Bing also wants to live, Xiao Bing has been admitted to university, I hope that I can find a good job after graduation in the future to support my father, my mother and my second grandfather, but I can't die if I don't die, one million, I can't afford to pay, I don't want to drive my family crazy because of this million, as long as I die, this matter will be over." ”

"Xiaobing, no matter how much money you owe to others, the second grandfather will help you pay it back, the second grandfather has saved 50,000 yuan over the years, which is ready for you to marry a daughter-in-law in the future, but why can't you think about it, if you leave, no matter how much money I make, it's all a pile of waste paper." Liu Fu stomped his feet anxiously, he didn't want to ask the child why he owed so much money, but no matter how much money the child owed, he was willing to bear it with him, as long as he was alive.

Liu Bing was probably afraid that his grandfather would misunderstand, so he wiped the corners of his eyes and crawled beside Liu Fu and said softly: "Second grandfather, Xiao Bing didn't owe money, didn't spend money indiscriminately, just did what everyone should do...... ”

Back on September 7, 2018, it was a good day, the weather was sunny and sunny, and even the sky over Jialin City had a rare blue sky and white clouds.

The weather is good and the mood is good, which is even more enjoyable for Liu Bing, who has just received a salary of 8,000 yuan from the shed.

It's been two months, and after the college entrance examination, Liu Bing followed his second grandfather to Jialin City to arrange to work as a cement mixer on this construction site. Although none of the workers on the construction site were his fellow villagers, both the workers and the foreman were very good to him, not only taking care of him at work, but also giving him an extra 1,000 at the final salary settlement, saying that it was a share of money to congratulate him on his admission to university.

This made Liu Bing, who walked into the big city for the first time, feel warm, he was originally a little afraid and worried about leaving his hometown to go to college in a strange city, but now he is not only not afraid but also very yearning, it turns out that people in the big city are so amiable.

In the afternoon, after the last day of work, Liu Bing didn't have time to change his clothes, so he excitedly took a stack of money and prepared to go to the post office to send it to his hometown's passbook, he didn't have a mobile phone, and naturally he didn't know WeChat Alipay, although his father had an elderly machine, but it could only be used to answer the phone.

Liu Bing used two black plastic bags to put the 7,400 yuan bag tightly in the pocket of his camouflage pants, and then put his hand into the pocket and pinched him tightly.

It was the first time he had received so much money at once, and although he was nervous and excited, he still distributed the money reasonably and turned it into double portions before mailing.

7,400 yuan was mailed home to do their own college tuition and miscellaneous expenses, and the remaining 600 yuan and 100 yuan were the fare for their own home, and the car only had to sit in the county seat, and the remaining 30 miles could be walked home so that it saved 30 yuan in fare, and left 100 to buy some melon seeds and candy for the foreman and workers, and the foreman sent a share of the money, according to the customs of his hometown, he should send back melon seeds and candy, and it doesn't matter if other workers don't send it, a little food is not a big deal, and the remaining 400 are for the second grandfather, father and mother to buy some winter clothes, The last time he visited the night market, he saw a cotton jacket called silk cotton, which was not only light but also very warm, that is, one piece cost more than 100, but it didn't matter, when the time came to bargain with the boss, maybe 400 yuan could get an extra piece.

Thinking of this, Liu Bing was extremely happy and happy, and he hummed an unknown song and walked on the quiet path like a cute elk jumping around.

Suddenly his cheerful footsteps stopped, and in the distance he seemed to see a man lying in the grass beside the roadside in front of him.
