Chapter 14: Life and Death
Jiang Bin's broken body was packed by Jiang Xiaobai, then incinerated, and the ashes were poured into the river by Jiang Xiaobai.
The cold sea breeze blew, and Jiang Xiaobai's spirit was slightly tired.
Looking at the river in the distance, tears suddenly flowed from the corners of Jiang Xiaobai's eyes.
Chu Feng patted Jiang Xiaobai on the shoulder, but he didn't know what words to say to comfort.
"Chu Feng."
"Hmm."
Jiang Xiaobai took a deep breath and said, "Do you know when I knew that I was a capable person?" ”
From the very beginning of knowing Jiang Xiaobai, Chu Feng didn't know that Jiang Xiaobai was a capable person, if Jiang Xiaobai hadn't taken the initiative to tell him, he would never have known about it.
Chu Feng said: "I know where I am, but I still think you were cuter when you were a child." ”
Lovely.
Chu Feng really couldn't think of any other words, because Jiang Xiaobai was too far away from such a word.
At their age, they shouldn't have lived like this.
Jiang Xiaobai said: "It was awakened after my mother's death, when I was holding my mother's body and my forehead fell into my mother's arms. ”
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaobai's originally stopped tears slipped down again.
He and Jiang Bin have no blood relationship at all, and the only one who has a blood relationship with him is his mother.
Chu Feng had only seen Jiang Xiaobai cry twice, once this time, and once when his mother died.
Chu Feng's mood was also very low, they had known each other when they were young and ignorant, and they were all children wandering in the city at that time.
"I remember the first time we met, it was in the garbage heap, right?"
Chu Feng said: "At that time, Auntie took you, and I took Ling'er." ”
Jiang Xiaobai said: "Yes, you and I fought over a piece of moldy bread. ”
"It was like I won that time."
The only thing Chu Feng felt proud of was a fight with Jiang Xiaobai when he was a child.
The corners of Jiang Xiaobai's mouth moved, and he said, "You remember wrong." ”
"I'm definitely not mistaken, Ling'er still remembers this incident, you were beaten by your aunt that day, right?"
Chu Feng stubbornly said that he and Jiang Xiaobai fought that day, and it was he who won Jiang Xiaobai.
"Ling'er was only 2 years old at the time, what can she remember?"
The reason why Jiang Xiaobai took good care of Chu Feng and Chu Ling'er was probably because of that fight.
"Mother really hit me that time, you're not wrong about that."
Jiang Xiaobai still remembers that incident vividly, because it was the first and last time his mother beat him.
Chu Feng said proudly: "Look, I'll just say that I won." ”
Chu Feng only had a vague memory of this incident, he was only 5 years old at that time, and after so many years, he was about to forget about it.
How much memory can a 5-year-old have?
"Mother snatched the bread because I won against you."
Jiang Xiaobai was also very young at that time, but he remembered these things very deeply, and later, he thought that this was probably the reason why he was able to have the ability to search souls.
"My mother said to me that I shouldn't have snatched this bread, I just wanted to be satisfied. But for you, it is the hope of life. ”
"I shouldn't have cut off your hope of survival, so my mother beat me for the first time."
In Jiang Xiaobai's heart, her mother has always been a very kind person.
Even in such a world, she never let Jiang Xiaobai steal and rob.
This is an extremely abnormal thing in this world.
Chu Feng's head was lowered, perhaps because of the sea breeze, the corners of his eyes were moist.
"Auntie is very good to me and Ling'er, she shouldn't have had something like that, God is so blind."
Chu Feng was able to live with Chu Ling'er until now because of Jiang Xiaobai's mother.
Without Jiang's mother's help, the two brothers and sisters would have starved to death or froze to death somewhere in this city.
The next day it may become food for wild dogs, and in the end only a pair of incomplete bones remain.
Jiang Xiaobai wiped away his tears with his hands, but he couldn't stop them from flowing at all.
"I was lying in my mother's arms, I could hear my mother talking to me, and I didn't believe she died like that."
Jiang Xiaobai was lying in his mother's cold embrace, unwilling to believe the fact that his mother had died.
"My head was in my mother's arms, and my mother's memories flooded into my mind, it was the first time I had inadvertently used soul searching, and I knew the truth about my mother's death."
If it weren't for the soul searching technique, Jiang Xiaobai would not have known the truth about his mother's death.
He may believe Jiang Bin's words, his mother died accidentally.
Chu Feng heard Jiang Xiao's vernacular accent and said, "Aunt Jiang didn't die accidentally?" ”
Mother Jiang's death was also a big blow to Chu Feng, Mother Jiang had taken care of their brothers and sisters for many years, and Chu Feng even felt that Mother Jiang was his mother.
"Where there is an accidental death, the accident is just used to cover up the truth."
Jiang Xiaobai sobbed silently, this was the last thing he wanted to believe.
"Mother was pushed down to the rooftop by Jiang Bin."
Jiang Xiaobai told the secret that had accumulated in his heart for so many years, a secret that was about to crush him.
Chu Feng was extremely shocked and said, "How is this possible!" ”
Jiang Bin had Moss's disease for only a few years, and Jiang's mother died much earlier than Jiang Bin's illness.
However, thinking of Jiang Xiaobai's ability, Chu Feng silently lowered his head.
Jiang Xiaobai couldn't be mistaken, how could he be mistaken?
Chu Feng's eyes were bloodshot and asked, "Why, why did he do this!" ”
Mother Jiang is like his and Chu Linger's mother, bringing them hope and warmth in this indifferent world.
Jiang Xiaobai seemed to have lost his soul, and said: "He wants to live, to live better." ”
"Survive?!"
Chu Feng shouted against the fierce cold wind, "Live? So did he ever think about his aunt? Doesn't Auntie want to live? ”
People are selfish, and once they are caught in a choice, they tend to make the most selfish choice.
Jiang Xiaobai's mind flashed the picture of Jiang's mother before she died, it was a conversation between her and Jiang Bin, and in the end, Jiang Bin had an argument with Jiang's mother, and Jiang Bin pushed Jiang's mother off the roof in a fit of anger.
And the position where Jiang Mu fell is also the position where Jiang Bin jumped today.
Jiang Bin chose to end his life in this way, isn't it atoning for his sins.
It's just that Jiang's mother is dead, and his atonement is meaningless.
Chu Feng roared angrily: "Why didn't you kill him!" Why not kill him! ”
No matter how difficult it is for Chu Feng to control his emotions, Jiang Mu is his hope for survival, and it is also the only belief that he thinks that this world is still full of love.
Jiang Xiaobai's shoulders shook because of anger and said, "This is what my mother meant, what can I do?!" ”
